Extraordinary in Reality Through Magic Games

339: Chapter 331, Page 336: Go, go find it!Farid’s time for exercising at home didn’t last long; early the next morning, he was summoned to the Kremlin Palace by the Presidential Assistant.

At first, Farid thought Tevan’s teacher had arrived, but he later learned that the President wanted to establish a department specifically dedicated to interfacing with the supernatural and handling domestic supernatural incidents, much like the Superpower Bureau in Ying Country and the Special Investigation Bureau in China.

As a member of the Security Bureau and given his close relationship with Tevan, he was the most suitable person to take charge of this matter.

Understanding the background and reasons, Farid did not refuse and gladly accepted the order, preparing to recruit candidates.

Just as he was about to leave the Kremlin Palace, he saw Tevan following behind a burly man, and the two of them entered the palace gates together.

He had seen the image of the burly man in the video sent by the President; moreover, Tevan’s obedient behavior by his side confirmed the man’s identity, so he naturally wouldn’t mistake him.

With the transcendent arriving at the door, his own chance for recruitment had also arrived. Farid ignored the task of setting up the department and led the two back to the President’s office.

Farid walked at the front and pushed open the door. Hearing footsteps, the President looked up and was puzzled to see him: ”Aren’t you going to...”

It wasn’t until the two behind him entered that he understood what was happening. He subconsciously stopped talking and stared blankly at the burly man.

The burly man looked around once, and finally, his gaze landed on the President’s face: ”Are you the President of Russia?”

The coarse tone jolted him awake, and he quickly stood up: ”That is me. Hello, sir. How should... how should I address you?”

The President swore that his mood on the day he was elected was not as excited as it was today; he even stuttered a bit when he spoke.

Not caring about his slightly rude behavior, the burly man walked forward and faced him across the desk: ”First, let me express my gratitude. My stupid student was lost in Mosco for a whole day, and it was you who helped him find the entrance to Seventeen.”

”Don’t mention it. Tevan is Russia’s transcendent. As President, helping our own is my duty,” the President said with full sincerity in his tone.

The burly man seemed to be in a hurry and had no interest in continuing with pleasantries, getting straight to the point: ”Tevan has already told you everything, right?”

”Yes, it was made clear yesterday.”

”Mm, very good.” Nodding, he continued, ”I have a few more points to add.

First of all, I don’t understand why my old friend who created Seventeen wants to help you go to the moon. Hmph, in my opinion, things like technological advancement are actually quite useless.

But he has already decided and even asked for my help, so I have no choice but to lend a hand. So, please put some heart into the transaction and don’t cause trouble for me,

otherwise, if you annoy me, I might drop the responsibility halfway through.”

”I understand.” Hearing that the burly man didn’t seem to approve of the transaction between the two parties, the President was a bit nervous, digging his nails into his palms to avoid showing panic.

”Then, my personality is such that if I’m going to do something, I’ll do it to be number one.

The spacecraft projects of China and Ying Country are already halfway through. America has the support of Old Gao and has also started construction. You need to hurry up.

Hmm... asking you to surpass them might be a bit much, but catching up to their progress shouldn’t be a problem, right?”

If it were any ordinary country, the President would have probably patted his chest and agreed, but the three countries the burly man mentioned were all at the forefront of the Blue Star and had transcendent support. He was suddenly at a loss for words, hesitating.

Farid, watching from the side, was truly anxious in his heart.

What’s wrong with the President?

He used to be so articulate when meeting the leaders of America; why is he so hesitant today?

Although Tevan’s teacher has a fierce aura, his appearance isn’t scary, is it?

Am I not perfectly fine?

However, the President was also in a difficult position at the moment. He wanted to use the fact that the three countries had started their projects earlier as a reason to ask Seventeen for more assistance, but being stared at by the burly man’s indifferent eyes, he felt that he would be torn apart by rage the moment he spoke.

If he could hear Farid’s thoughts, the President would probably burst out cursing: Why don’t you come and try looking him in the eye?

The burly man perhaps sensed what the President was worried about and said: ”Speak your mind. Don’t be so wishy-washy like a woman.”

Why is this transcendent gentleman’s language style so similar to that of a Chinese person...

Even though he was grumbling in his heart, the President maintained a respectful tone, because he didn’t know if a mysterious transcendent might have the ability to hear inner thoughts.

The President swallowed to soothe his dry throat: ”It’s like this, sir. Of the three countries you mentioned, two of them are inherently no weaker than Russia,

and even Ying Country, which was on the decline, has regained its former glory with the full support of Hogwarts.

So...”

”Are you blaming Seventeen for appearing too late?” The burly man’s arms, as thick as thighs, were crossed over his chest, and his chin was slightly raised.

”No, no, I didn’t mean that.” The President subconsciously followed the politician’s habit of speaking in circles, but he didn’t want to cause a misunderstanding with the burly man. He quickly explained and didn’t dare to waste any more words, saying rapidly,

”Without strong support, it will be very difficult for me to catch up with their progress.”

Seemingly worried that the burly man would think he was lying to solicit benefits, he emphasized: ”You only need to do a casual investigation to confirm my words.”

”Hmm...” The burly man’s index finger tapped lightly on his arm for a moment. ”That’s true... how about this, I’ll make the call: the first batch of materials for building the spacecraft will be gifted to you,

and I’ll send a few workers to you.”

A few workers?

Both Farid and the President were a bit confused. ”A few” was an uncertain number, but one thing was for sure: it was a single digit.

Even if calculated by the highest single digit, that would be nine people.

How much could nine people improve construction speed?

The two were dazed for a few seconds. The burly man’s thick eyebrows arched: ”I advise you not to look down on... forget it, you’ll find out when the time comes.”

”Okay, okay,” the President replied, coming back to his senses.

”The workers will arrive soon. You should also hurry up and prepare to start work. And then... let’s talk about the other matter.”

It’s coming!

The chance to become a transcendent was right before them. Farid’s and the President’s eyes couldn’t help but light up.

”Tevan has also informed you that Seventeen plans to recruit a group of students on Blue Star, tentatively five people.”

The Mountain Gate’s new disciples were five, Hogwarts’ freshmen were also five, and now Seventeen’s students were to be five as well. It was hard for the President not to suspect whether the three transcendent forces were competing for something.

However, the burly man had no intention of revealing anything, and the President didn’t have the courage to ask, so he followed the conversation: ”I have already heavily publicized this domestically. Basically, all citizens know about it now.

They are all full of yearning and enthusiasm for being selected for Seventeen. I guarantee you’ll find students with satisfactory qualifications.”

”Whether the qualifications satisfy me depends on their performance.”

”Of course.”

Farid plucked up the courage to interject: ”Sir, Seventeen doesn’t accept voluntary applications. Are you going to personally select the students?

Is there anything we can do to help?”

”No need,” the burly man said, and then suddenly vanished on the spot.

The President was stunned. What happened? He just left suddenly? Then what about recruiting students?

Fortunately, Tevan was still standing in the middle of the room, so he wasn’t without someone to ask.

”Mr. Tevan, your teacher...”

”He went to set the exam questions.”

”What are the exam questions?” The two of them, longing to step into the supernatural, asked in a frantic hurry upon hearing that the exam questions had appeared.

”You’ll see when you go outside.”

The President and Farid looked at each other and simultaneously rushed out the door.

”Heavens...” They saw the burly man at a glance and then froze.

At this moment, they were very certain that not only themselves, but everyone in the Kremlin Palace, and even everyone in all of Russia, could see the burly man.

It should have been in the mountains on the outskirts of Mosco. The burly man’s body had somehow towered up, turning into a giant.

Farid could not estimate the specific height with his eyes, because the giant’s head and vast shoulders were obscured by the clouds, revealing only a chest as broad as a plain.

Looking down, his legs could be seen standing among the continuous mountain ranges. The majestic mountains, their peaks barely reached his calves, as if they had become small mounds of earth before a door.

Finally, the burly man’s voice, like the deep and melodious tolling of a bell, came from the clouds.

”Five wolf bones are scattered across the land. Those who obtain them will be selected for Seventeen. Go, go and find them.”

As the words fell, the giant’s mountain-like fist opened its five fingers, and five dazzling light orbs flew out of his palm, each flying far away in a different direction.

Afterward, the giant’s figure gradually became ethereal until it vanished completely.

The two people standing dazed in the middle of the courtyard slowly regained consciousness and lowered their somewhat stiff necks.

”Find a wolf bone and you’ll be selected...”

Then what are we waiting for?

The President’s eyes instantly became sharp: ”Farid, you are fully responsible for the spacecraft project. I have other things to attend to!”

”No, Your Excellency President, I refuse!” Farid’s face changed, and he shook his head vigorously.

”You dare to disobey orders!”

”I can resign.”

Seeing that being forceful was not working, the President’s attitude softened, and he advised in a gentle voice: ”The only person who can handle the spacecraft project and is trustworthy is you.”

”Your assistant will do as well.”

”He hasn’t had much contact with the supernatural, whereas you are very familiar with Mr. Tevan, making it more convenient to communicate with Seventeen.”

”I resign!”

The President’s face turned green.

What is wrong with this person? You don’t even want a promotion when it’s handed to you?

Farid had his hands in his pockets; no matter what was said, he just wouldn’t budge.

In fact, he understood that the President was telling the truth and wasn’t using this as an excuse to eliminate him as a competitor.

Every Russian citizen has the right to strive for a wolf bone. Could he eliminate them all?

Or overbearingly use presidential power to forbid others from looking for wolf bones?

Tevan’s teacher would tear him apart.

The two were at a stalemate for a while, and finally, having no choice, the President chose to compromise.

The commotion caused by the giant just now had been witnessed by all of Russia. At this moment, everyone must have run out of their homes, digging three feet into the ground everywhere to find the wolf bones. If he delayed any longer, they might all be snatched up.

He ordered his assistant to take charge of the spacecraft project, turned around, got into his car, and hurriedly set off, embarking on a journey to find a wolf bone.

Farid had originally intended to set off immediately, but after taking two steps, the memory of Tevan finding him yesterday suddenly flashed in his mind.

”wolf fang?”

After fumbling in the inner pocket of his coat for a long time, he pulled out the wolf fang hidden in the deepest part. He looked down at the pure white wolf fang lying in his palm and murmured to himself: ”No wonder he said that yesterday. Mr. Tevan, you are my best friend in this life... Mr. Tevan?”

Speaking of Tevan, he remembered the person was still in the office. It was too rude to leave without saying a word, so he immediately turned around and ran into the room.

However, the room was exceptionally quiet; Tevan had already left on his own.

After dazing for a while, Farid’s face became solemn.

Even though Tevan was not there and there was only air in front of him, he still bowed slightly and saluted the air: ”Thank you for the gift, Mr. Tevan. Farid will never dare to forget it.”

Afterward, he didn’t waste any more time, got into his car, and set off.

At this time, not only were the citizens of Russia in a frenzy, but the people of neighboring countries also seemed to have lost their minds. Ignoring the warning shots from border Soldiers, they rushed into Russian territory to fight for the wolf bones.

People from further abroad were also currently on their way to Russia by car.

A carnival was slowly beginning to unfold.

...

Pictures of the giant appearing on the outskirts of Mosco were quickly uploaded to the internet and instantly spread globally.

After receiving the news, the Queen, like the Russian President, wondered what the three major transcendent organizations were actually competing for, and how great the interests were, such that even ”Mr. Gao” disregarded the risks and participated in his personal capacity.

After thinking about it, she was truly curious and contacted Dumbledore through the Owl.

It wasn’t a puppet, but Zhang Mu’s true self.

One of the purposes of giving the Queen the Owl was to facilitate contact, so he wouldn’t have to go to the palace to find her every time; now it had come in handy.

Facing the Queen’s inquiry, Zhang Mu put on a profound and secretive act to brush it off.

It wasn’t that he was intentionally hiding anything; it was mainly because... there really wasn’t any secret in the event.

Just as Zhang Mu finished dealing with the Queen, Neo, who had seen the news, also came to ask.

He wasn’t driven by curiosity; he simply came to ask if there was anything he could do to help.

After using the same rhetoric as he did with the Queen to brush him off, Zhang Mu didn’t return to The World to practice. He speculated that someone else would soon come looking for him.

As expected, a few seconds later, the Director of the Special Investigation Bureau ”called” using the moon bright sword.

Same as the previous two, it was due to the giant that suddenly appeared in Russia.

However, unlike the previous two, the Director didn’t hide anything or hesitate with many concerns; he simply asked directly, what are you guys fighting for?

Do you need China’s help?

Solving it in the same old way, Zhang Mu cut off the communication, opened the light gate to enter The World, sat cross-legged to practice Knight Magic, and then did a round of Meditation Method.

When the magic power in his body was exhausted, he drank a potion to recover while pondering the construction of Seventeen.

His thinking remained unchanged.

Due to the fact that Lake was about to encounter an invasion from neighboring countries, construction would temporarily not start until they were beaten back and it was ensured that no one could invade the territory.

But in that case, the five new students from Russia could not enter the school for the time being, so there had to be an explanation.

After all, for Hogwarts and the Mountain Gate, candidates were brought into The World as soon as they were determined. If Seventeen didn’t allow entry, it wouldn’t make sense without a reasonable cause.

Propping his chin with his palm and thinking for a while, Zhang Mu had some ideas.

The reason certainly couldn’t be blamed on Seventeen, as it would cause Seventeen’s reputation to drop; it could only be approached from the outside.

calamity was a very suitable name.

Back when he met Farid in Tevan’s identity, Zhang Mu had revealed that Russia would soon face a calamity.

From then until today, several months had passed, and the event barely fit the description of ”soon.” Presumably, if a calamity descended now, Russia would not find it abrupt or feel suspicious.

With the plan set, Zhang Mu immediately executed it. With a slight thought, he came to the area where magic beasts and monsters were kept.

Looking around, he randomly picked out a few Apprentice Level magic beasts, stuffed them into his inventory, then opened the light gate and stepped out.
