The young man casually closed the door and twisted the lock. The eyes behind the glasses were exceptionally bright, quickly scanning around the room. Finally, they fixed on the middle-aged man leading the group. "Wang Wu, how is the situation with this mission? Was there any resistance from the target or any other anomalies?" The middle-aged man, referred to as "Wang Wu," immediately bowed slightly, answering with respect: "Boss Jia, we found the target you mentioned at the teahouse." "At the time, he was talking to a very young man, with two boxes of cash on the table, seemingly conducting some kind of deal." "So we pretended to be robbers, threatening them to hand over the money. The target himself did not resist, but the young man he was talking to seemed to be a Martial Artist and suddenly intervened." "I must confess, I was no match for the man, so the reconnaissance task had to be suspended." He deliberately downplayed the large amount of cash, avoiding mentioning his embarrassing defeat in a single move. He simply summarized Fang Cheng as a "Kung Fu Expert." Black Bull and Mouse, standing aside, also hung their heads, looking cautious, showing no sign of previous resentment. "Encountered an Expert? Not even you were a match?" The young man pushed his glasses up, his gaze pausing momentarily on the bruised faces of Black Bull and Mouse, then he fell into contemplation. Suddenly, as if realizing something, his expression changed slightly. He transformed instantly from a lazy house cat into an alert leopard. Without any warning, he stepped back, his figure darting ghost-like behind the door, peering through the peephole, swiftly scanning the corridor outside. After confirming there was no one there, he darted to the window, lifting a corner of the curtain.

The entire operation was executed skillfully, his movements agile, like an experienced covert operative. It was only after confirming there were no followers that he relaxed and stood back in the center of the room. The gaze behind the glasses flickered slightly, as if pondering something. Seeing him silent for so long, Wang Wu cautiously spoke up: "Boss Jia, my brothers and I have completed four missions for you. What about the medicine you promised us?" As he spoke, he pointed to the two subordinates, one fat and one thin, behind him. "Black Bull and Mouse injected once before, and upon recent observation, they’ve performed very well. Can they now officially join your distinguished organization’s ’Pioneer’s Talent Selection Program’?" Upon hearing this, Black Bull and Mouse immediately raised their heads, their eyes filled with undisguised anticipation. The young man pondered for a moment, seemingly weighing the pros and cons. Finally, he nodded and took out a portable medicine kit from the canvas bag behind him. With a soft "click," the box was opened. Lined with black velvet, a brand-new syringe lay quietly beside five vials containing a light blue liquid. In the dim light, the liquid glowed with a faint luminescence, as if containing some mysterious magic power. Wang Wu instinctively swallowed, his eyes suddenly blazing with heat. Black Bull and Mouse’s breathing also became heavy, their eyes locked onto the vials. Their greed and longing surpassed the moment they saw those two boxes of cash at the teahouse by a hundredfold. Because this was "Pioneer’s Blood"! The Noah Organization spent decades developing this extraordinary elixir with unparalleled magic power. Rumored by the outside world, it could transform a person without any strength into a superhuman in a short period. How could such a fate-altering thing not excite them? Especially Black Bull and Mouse, who had already witnessed the miraculous effects of this medicine firsthand. The reason their boss Wang Wu became so powerful was all thanks to its effect, which caused his strength to soar. Seeing the trio’s reaction, the young man curved his lips into a playful arc: "This is your reward—a new medicine. Wang Wu, take three. Black Bull, Mouse, you each take one." As he spoke, he handed the medicine kit over. A trace of joy appeared on Wang Wu’s face as he took it immediately. His fingers gently caressed the cold glass vials, as if stroking a rare treasure. Black Bull and Mouse also quickly gathered around, eyes glued to the medicine, rubbing their hands eagerly. The young man observed them, as if they were addicts, and said with a smile: "After you two inject, during the two-week observation period, if there are no severe adverse reactions, I have the authority to formally include you in the ’Pioneer’s Talent Selection Program.’ "Thank you, Boss Jia! Thank you, Boss Jia!" Black Bull and Mouse, hearing this, were overjoyed, nodding vigorously with gratitude. Wang Wu also thanked on behalf of his brothers and handed the two vials to them. They received them as if receiving a treasure, carefully cradling them in their palms. The young man’s eyes glinted slightly. Seeing the three caressing the medicine, unable to let go, he spoke again: "Aren’t you going to try it now?" Mouse swallowed, seemingly wanting to, but hesitating: "Boss Jia, didn’t you say the side effects of this medicine are significant? Before injecting, we need to adjust our state and prepare enough nutritional supplements." Black Bull echoed in a muffled voice, appearing apprehensive: "Last time I injected, my neck swelled for several days, and my body itched everywhere, with many red rashes." The young man maintained a gentle smile on his face:
