The Professional Rankings, in twelve volumes, each bearing the name of my lord.

Minister Yu was extremely frightened at this moment.

The old man in the trench coat should be an assassin, known for his fast attacks and high burst damage.

In fact, Minister Yu noticed the short knife that had quietly fallen from the sky and was weaving through the crowd.

Including the moment when the short sword unleashes its killing move.

Minister Yu seized the opportunity and used a counter-attack skill that could completely block the attack, and then he planned to use it to counterattack.

But what left him speechless was...

The skill was just used, and it reverted on its own!

It's also entered a cooldown period!

Reverting... Even Minister Yu himself thought it was outrageous. The skill had already been used, how could it be reverted?

Fortunately, the minister was not a good-for-nothing; the dagger was aimed at his neck, a vital spot, but he managed to avoid it at the crucial moment, sacrificing an arm in the process.

"Wang Miao! Keep calling for backup!!"

Minister Yu, clutching his severed arm, roared at Wang Miao.

Behind him, a group of special security personnel from the Special Bureau, who were in charge of healing, were maintaining his steadily declining health bar.

Although his health bar can be saved, Minister Yu's life is still in danger if he continues to bleed like this.

Fortunately, the minister was a tough guy. He found a mage who knew fire magic and had him burn the wound to stop the bleeding.

Wang Miao swallowed the blue bottle to restore his mana, and at the same time handed the anchor point item to his teammate so that he could continue to provide anchor points and energy for the anchor point teleportation array.

During this time, the old man in the trench coat attacked the cage holding the mutant beast.

His attack nearly killed the team protecting the cage, but the cage remained unharmed, only bearing some marks.

The aberrant beast itself was contained in a black leather bag.

The leather bag was completely destroyed by the old man in the trench coat, revealing the mutated beast's appearance.

The fake bandits had never seen anything like it before and were quite startled.

"It's a monster?!"

"I thought we were going to rescue a prisoner!"

"Why can't I see the information panel on this monster?"

"The monster isn't moving. Is it dead?"

The Song hexagram has changed positions and arrived in the battle zone.

He swapped with an outer clone, and was still some distance from the chaotic battle zone.

Fortunately, some of the clones were still fooling around on the outside, otherwise Song Guayi would have faced a chaotic battle as soon as he switched places.

Looking up, I saw the old man wielding a short sword, unleashing all sorts of cool skills, and relentlessly attacking the mutant beast cage.

Judging from the detector on the old man's face, it's not hard to infer that he may have been here because he detected the fluctuations of the mutated beast.

He didn't attack the bandits, but instead immediately tried to kill Minister Yu.

On the one hand, he viewed the minister as the only person present who posed a threat to him.

On the other hand, his detector should also show that everyone on site is at 100.

Doesn't the old man know that dark artifacts can smooth out life fluctuations?

Either he knew, but the last time he encountered bandits, his life force fluctuations were abnormal, and he thought the bandits didn't know this usage.

Either he doesn't know, or he only recognizes fluctuations, not people.

In short, the old man's current behavior is the same as that of the Special Bureau; he treats all these bandits as imposters.

Song Gua said in a low voice.

"Curious guy, ask the Libra evil spirit if it can sense what kind of dark artifact this old man is carrying."

Curious Guy replied very quickly.

"That bastard said the old man was probably using a dark pocket watch."

"A pocket watch? Could it be related to time? Hiss... I want one!"

"That bastard says he doesn't know."

"He's not unaware, he just doesn't want to say. Oh well, it's not important. If the old man could control time, we wouldn't be playing this game. His sacred artifact definitely hasn't been repaired to that level of strength yet."

The old man was a normal person; the unusual fluctuations in his body only appeared when he used the Dark Artifact, unlike the bandit who was abnormal at all times.

This is why Wang Miao's detector only detected him just now, after he made his move.

Song Gua held the Law of Heaven and Earth Card in his hand, ready to activate it at any time.

The power of the Unity Force plus the Celestial and Earthly Cards has already been tested in the previous World Boss battle.

It's strong enough to go toe-to-toe with level 60 world bosses!

Although the old man's abilities are unclear, his combat strength cannot be higher than that of Walker, who is at level 60.

Moreover, Song Gua was preparing to use Thorne's card. Thorne had a Dark Rebirth skill, which, if applied beforehand, would revive him if he died within a certain time limit.

Very stable.

We can avenge the invisible guy!

Maybe we can even snatch the dark artifact from the old man's hands!

However, there's no rush to make a move now.

The old man is attacking the cage of the mutant beast.

This is also the target of the Song Gua.

Even the old man couldn't break the cage with brute force, and Song Gua figured he was out of options too, so he decided to see if the old man had any other ideas.

"Max Alloy?"

The large black raven was clearly the one-armed old man in the trench coat's mount. He stood on it and bombarded it with various ranged skills, only to find that the cage was completely immovable, realizing that the cage was made of a special material.

The one-armed old man smiled.

"Interesting. The Yunshan City Special Bureau actually managed to get so much Max Alloy. It seems there are traitors among the Celestials."

The one-armed old man leaped down from the crow.

He landed as steadily as a falling leaf, and moved with unpredictable steps amidst the chaotic battle between the special bureau, fake bandits, and real bandits.

In the blink of an eye, after leaving several black shadows in his wake, he arrived in front of Minister Yu.

"Where's the key?"

He was asking for the key to open the mutant beast's cage.

Just like last time, the one-armed old man covered his face with some black mist.

Minister Yu scoffed.

"You cowardly scoundrel! You have equipment from the Special Affairs Bureau; which branch are you a mole in?!"

"Heh, Minister Yu, mind your own business. Hand over the keys, and I'll make sure your men all get back safely. Otherwise, you'll all be wiped out today, and no one will escape with a whole corpse!"

"Hahaha! You're an assassin, aren't you?! You think you can wipe us all out? You think you're a mage?!"

Before he could finish speaking...

Another third-tier professional from the Special Bureau arrived via the anchor teleportation array.

Minister Yu became increasingly confident.

"Now it's two against one, you have even less chance of winning! You broke my arm, and today I'll definitely take your dog's life!"

Despite losing an arm, Minister Yu remained full of vigor and launched the first attack.

The one-armed old man gave a strange laugh, and his figure suddenly vanished, thus avoiding the minister's skill.

His physical form then appeared on the shadow he had left behind.

Minister Yu scoffed, "Shadow displacement, a mere trick! Let's see how many shadows you have! Old Peng! Kill him!"

The newly arrived third-tier professional immediately noticed the one-armed old man who was the highest-ranking person there.

"Okay! Huh? Why am I...?"

Minister Yu shouted, "Don't use your ultimate skills! This guy will reset skill cooldowns, use skills with fast cooldowns!"
