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

Even Huozi was moved.

"That's true... But it's not about asking you to self-destruct, it's about contacting the authorities. They won't do anything reckless."

Xu Kai continued.

"Idols! I know you are all around the same age as us, but each of you levels up very quickly and is incredibly powerful!"

What rookie king? He's nothing compared to us bandits!

Every one of us bandits is a rising star!

Song Gua listened to these words and couldn't tell whether the man was praising him or criticizing him.

Solo fans are terrifying.

Huozi explained to Xu Kai what they needed to do.

Song Gua sat in the bandit headquarters, looking at the three Soul-Devouring Beads and the two dark artifacts, the Dark Balance and the Dark Pocket Watch, placed in front of him.

"The Dark Dagger has lost its spirit and is just an ornament. The Special Bureau can neither use it nor deal with it, so it will definitely be sealed away."

Yanzu, you need to work hard to climb up the ranks. As long as you have enough authority, you'll definitely find out where the Dark Dagger is sealed. Then we'll have a chance to steal it!

No, "steal" sounds too awful. The spirits are with us; we should be taking back what belongs to us, the bandits!

Yanzu said that Alexander was still just an intern.

"Right now, it's roughly equivalent to possessing three Dark Relics. There are only seven in total. If I collect all seven, will I be able to summon a dragon? Hahahaha..."

Song Gua was amused by his own thoughts.

But his smile looks a bit like Lily the Dark Fairy.

Even his clones are criticizing him.

"This old thief is becoming more and more like a villain."

Song Gua really wanted to know if anything magical would happen if the seven dark artifacts were gathered in one person's hands.

So he let the three curious guys ask.

Dark Balance is playing dead and not replying.

The Dark Dagger cursed loudly.

The Dark Pocket Watch is always ready to answer questions, indicating that while the seven Dark Relics cannot summon the dragon when gathered together, some wondrous things will indeed happen.

"What? It's really possible to reshape the physical body and become a god or ancestor?"

These are the words that the old man in the trench coat once said.

"Oh~ my bandit leader, you should know that we spirits and artifacts have all suffered severe damage and are incomplete, so our memories are also incomplete."

Moreover, there are some things that the seven of us remember separately, and we only know one-seventh of what each other knows.

I only vaguely remember that after the pocket watch was fully repaired, my host was to search for other sacred artifacts. Once everyone gathered, something was supposed to happen.

But it wasn't about becoming a god or an ancestor; that was just something I used to fool my previous host.

Actually, Song Gua had already asked the old man in the trench coat about the pocket watch's identity before.

He's really someone important.

He is the deputy director of the Special Bureau of Jinghai City. Jinghai City is also a first-tier city, that is, a fifth-tier city.

If this old man retires smoothly, he will have a very comfortable life in his later years.

Unfortunately, he ran into bandits and was played to death.

"By the way, Dark Dagger seemed to have mentioned something about a compass plan. Does anyone know anything about it?"

Once Song Gua asked this question, the three curious guys would immediately relay it to the three evil spirits.

After the evil spirit returned, the three curious men relayed the story to Song Gua.

It's mainly used as a mouthpiece.

The Scales Demon: "You're asking me? I only chose one host after I was resurrected, and you guys dragged me in here! You're asking me??? Pretty Mommy!"

The dagger-wielding demon roared, "Let me out! Who are you people?! Our Dark Star army will crush Blue Star sooner or later, and you will all die!!!"

Pocket Watch Evil Spirit: "Oh, buddy, I swear on the name of the Dark Emperor, I know very little. I only know that the Compass's original plan was ruined by you guys. He later captured nine third-tier professionals, but he didn't have time to say what he was going to do with them, so naturally I don't know either."

A pocket watch is still more reliable.

But little is known about it.

The Song hexagram is no longer being considered.

The following day, Song Gua's plan to steal the illusionary realm began.

In fact, the entrance to the No. 6 Illusionary Realm in Beijing was not heavily guarded. There was only a perimeter of warning tape hanging in the trees and three combat teams from the Strategic Department patrolling the area.

There are only two third-turn groups in total.

After all, if the authorities simply issue a notice, no one will force their way in.

Moreover, for those without a divine stele, entering the illusion is a form of entertainment, a chance to try their luck and see if they can obtain any valuable illusion items.

The main reason is that even the strategic department didn't expect that there would be someone like Song Gua who steals illusions.

The three combat teams patrolled as usual, chatting idly here and there.

"I have to do this boring task again, which is delaying my leveling up."

"Stop complaining. Didn't the higher-ups give each of us 500 reputation points? Go to Glory City next month, buy an experience book, it'll be much more efficient than you leveling up."

"I'm not planning to buy experience books. I'm saving up to buy the Innate Ganoderma lucidum. I always feel like I don't have enough skills."

"You have a fear of insufficient firepower, huh? Haha..."

Suddenly, a noisy chattering sound came from afar.

"We've entered an illusion!"

"Let's go, let's go!"

"Everyone in the back, keep up! Keep up!"

"Today we're all entering a fantasy world together, exploring another realm! Let's have some fun!"

"Haha, this is so much fun!"

A group of people wearing mahjong-patterned headbands and Taoist robes of various colors walked over.

The robes of these people also had colorful graffiti on them.

The people in the strategy department glanced at it.

"Bandits? Are they the real deal?"

"The bandits' robes usually look clean, but these guys' robes have graffiti on them. Are they fakes?"

"Don't they know that this illusionary realm is closed to the public for the past few days?"

"Get rid of them quickly."

"Be careful to keep a safe distance from them. These guys could be real bandits, and they might just blow themselves up at the drop of a hat. They're very dangerous."

A huge crowd of hundreds of people ignored the yellow warning line on the perimeter, stepped on it, and headed straight for the illusion.

The three teams from the strategic department had long been bored out of their minds from patrolling.

Hearing the commotion, they all gathered around to see what was going on, and incidentally used their skills to block the hundreds of people from getting closer.

Xu Kai, who was leading the group, was wearing a headgear shaped like a die with a dot on each of the six sides, and he started shouting.

"What are you doing! Why won't you let us in! Is this illusion your property?"

The head of the strategy department stepped forward and offered an explanation.

Xu Kai shook his head.

"I don't understand! I don't understand! The illusionary realm is open, everyone has the right to enter! I already disliked your usual registration system, and now you're not even letting us in? Why should we?!"

The person in charge was getting impatient.

"There are plenty of illusionary realms near the capital. There are three more E- and F-level illusionary realms opening at the same time. Do you really want to go into this one?"

"I can go wherever I want, is that any of your business? Do you care whether I poop a long strip or a round ball?"

"For official business of the Strategic Department, this illusion is temporarily off-limits. Do not cause trouble here! Leave immediately!"

Upon hearing this, Xu Kai waved to his brothers.

"Charge in!"

Hundreds of people screamed and tried to rush into the beam of light.

The three teams from the strategy department quickly unleashed their skills to block them.

Someone attempted to use offensive skills but was stopped by the person in charge.

"Be careful! Do not hurt anyone!"
