Chapter 171 Li You
Chapter 171 Li You
In the far north, there is a city that looks like a dreamland - Ice Crystal City.
This city is not far from Luoyang City. It seems to be specially favored by nature, and it seems to be cast with eternal winter magic by the ice and snow elves.
The temperature remains extremely low all year round.
Walking through the streets and alleys of the Ice Crystal City, you will see thick white snow hanging on every leaf. The snow is like a layer of pure white velvet blanket carefully covered on the leaves, soft and fine.
What is even more amazing is that under the sunlight, sparkling ice crystals will sparkle on the leaves. They are like dazzling diamonds, reflecting colorful light.
The entire city is decorated like a snowy kingdom shining with strange lights.
For this reason, Ice Crystal City is known as the most must-visit destination in summer. While other places are shrouded in the scorching heat of summer, this place remains a cool world of ice and snow.
All the tourists who come here are captivated by the beautiful scenery.
Especially the mysterious and vast forest is a major feature of Ice Crystal City.
Every tree in the forest is like a work of art carved by nature. Their branches are covered with hoarfrost, as if they were covered with a layer of silver, and those branches full of ice crystals make crisp and pleasant sounds when blown by the breeze.
The whole forest is filled with a dreamlike atmosphere. No matter who walks into this forest and takes a photo, the photo will seem like a scene taken from a fairy tale world, and it is very photogenic.
In the heart of Ice Crystal City stands a high-end five-star hotel.
The hotel has a magnificent exterior, and its architectural style combines modern luxury with the romance of ice and snow elements. The huge glass curtain wall sparkles brightly under the sunlight, reflecting the surrounding ice and snow world.
In a luxurious suite in the hotel, a man dressed in ancient knight's clothes was sitting lazily on a soft sofa.
He wore an exquisite conical hat on his head, the brim of which was slightly upturned.
The man was tall and slender, with broad shoulders and a narrow waist, his proportions were perfect. He was about 1.85 meters tall, like a handsome knight walking out of an ancient scroll.
He has shiny black hair, as soft as black satin, and it gleams with a faint luster under the light.
His eyes were even more unique, with narrow and long pupils and eyelashes as thick as two small fans. The pupils in his eyes were a deep red color like dried blood, as if hiding endless mystery and depth.
One look at it and you'll be deeply drawn in.
Under the high nose bridge, there is a pair of slightly pursed lips, which are also a little deep red, just like the red plum blossoms in winter, adding a different color to his fair and handsome face.
He was also wearing a pair of black gloves that fit tightly against his skin. The material of the gloves looked very exquisite and fit his slender fingers perfectly, making his fingers look even more slender, as if they were works of art carefully carved by an artist.
At this moment, the handsome man was holding the phone in his hand, his brows furrowed, with a helpless look on his face, and said to the other end of the phone:
"Hello? Captain Zhang, do you want us to be the instructors for those new recruits?"
His voice was low and magnetic, yet it also revealed a hint of doubt and reluctance.
"That's not going to work. We've just been promoted to the special team, and we don't have much strength or knowledge. I'm afraid this won't work."
The man shook his head slightly and continued.
Captain Zhang on the other end of the phone seemed to have anticipated his reaction. His voice became noticeably colder as he said:
"Li You, I remember you weren't such a timid person. You're new to the special team now. Have you ever seen a special team that didn't have a bunch of newbies? Now I'm asking you to be instructors for those little bastards. What's so difficult about that?"
Captain Zhang's tone was full of unquestionable command, as if there was no room for negotiation on this matter.
"Don't give me any more excuses. This is an order from above, not my opinion."
Captain Zhang continued to emphasize, his words revealing a serious tone.
After hearing Captain Zhang's words, Li You couldn't help but smacked his lips and said helplessly:
"Tsk, well, Captain Zhang, if the higher-ups ask us about our poor training, then that has nothing to do with us."
Although he was still somewhat reluctant, he knew in his heart that since it was an order from above, he had no choice but to accept it.
After all, in this particular organization, obedience to orders is the first principle.
"Alright, besides, I'm letting you guys be instructors to train those outside the top 50. As for those from to , you don't need to worry about that."
Captain Zhang seemed to notice Li You's worry and added another sentence, trying to make him feel a little more at ease.
"Hmm? Does this mean there are more people coming?"
Li You couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, a hint of curiosity flashed in his eyes.
"Well, more or less. The CEO will personally train the top 50," the other party replied.
Hearing this news, Li You felt a little relieved.
It is absolutely foolproof if the CEO personally trains the top 50 new recruits.
"Okay, then we feel relieved. Goodbye, Captain Zhang." Then, the moment Li You finished speaking, the person on the other end hung up the phone.
Li You sighed softly, put his phone on the coffee table beside him, then took a deep breath, sat up from the sofa and stretched.
He felt as if his body was a little stiff. After all, he had been sitting on the sofa for so long, talking on the phone with Captain Zhang, and his mind was in a tense state.
Then, Li You took out a small speaker from his pocket. The speaker looked small and exquisite, with a black shell and some simple patterns engraved on it.
He put the trumpet to his lips, blew gently, tested the sound, and then whispered:
"Wake up, there is a mission."
Although his voice was not loud, it was extremely clear in this quiet hotel room, as if it had some magical penetrating power that could penetrate the walls and reach every room.
At the same time, in the five rooms of the hotel, five people who were sleeping soundly were suddenly awakened.
