After Descending the Mountain, Seven Big Brothers Spoil Me - Chapter 759

Chapter 759: Invisibility Talisman Fails
After changing into her uniform, Zhouzhou emerged, her small, short legs clad in a mini camouflage outfit, looking adorably cute. Yet, no one dared to underestimate her. After all, even those who engaged in such activities felt the pain in their knees.

“Let’s go,” Zhouzhou said confidently.

“This is done one by one,” Dou Qiang reminded.

“Okay,” Zhouzhou nodded, eagerly rubbing her small hands. “Can I go in first?”

Everyone eagerly nodded, more than happy to let her go first. It was the hell level, something they hadn’t experienced before, and just thinking about it made their legs go weak. They wondered if Xi Mo would lower the difficulty for Zhouzhou’s sake.

Of course not.

Xi Mo knew Zhouzhou’s capabilities and understood that the difficulty ahead was not a challenge for her. Zhouzhou had always had things easy. Her talent made everything seem simple, but this was both a blessing and a curse. She would face the most vicious people in the world, and underestimating any of them could cost her dearly.

Both he and Ye Lingfeng, despite their reluctance, wanted her to undergo more training before she took on official missions.

In the adjacent monitoring room, Xi Mo focused intently on the screen, tracking Zhouzhou’s every move. As soon as Zhouzhou entered and saw the maze of infrared lines, she quickly slapped an Invisibility Talisman onto herself. Her figure instantly vanished from the screen.

Xi Mo was not anxious.

Sure enough, the next second, the mechanisms in the wall were activated, shooting in a particular direction. Zhouzhou, startled, quickly rolled on the ground and retreated to the entrance. She looked at the bloodstain on her arm where she had been scratched, staring in confusion at the scene before her.

She checked the Invisibility Talisman and found it wasn’t malfunctioning. So what was happening?

Seemingly reading her thoughts, Xi Mo said, “The talisman only makes you invisible to the naked eye, but infrared sensors detect body heat. You can hide from sight, but you can’t hide your temperature.”

Zhouzhou understood and felt a bit nervous. She recalled that Sharp Tongue Daddy had said they once escaped a pursuer using the Invisibility Talisman. If those pursuers had had such sensors, the talisman would have been useless.

Shivering at the thought, Zhouzhou realized she couldn’t rely on the talisman alone and had to proceed with caution. Clenching her tiny fists, she began to carefully observe the infrared lines. They were dense and would be impossible to pass through without detection.

However, the red beams were not always in the same position; they moved in a pattern. The gaps between these moving beams were the only opportunities to get through. The speed of these movements was extremely fast, giving only milliseconds of opportunity. Missing a chance could trigger the mechanisms again.

Zhouzhou calmed herself, her small hands occasionally moving as she memorized the pattern. After observing for a while, she tore off the Invisibility Talisman and, with a quick step, became a blur, so fast that even the surveillance camera couldn’t capture her.

In the monitoring room, Xi Mo’s serious expression finally softened into a satisfied smile.

Outside, Dou Qiang and the others were discussing the matter.

“Do you think Zhouzhou can make it through?” one of them asked.

The others shook their heads. “It seems unlikely. This is the hell level, and none of us have tried it. Only Captain Xi and a few other captains have managed.”

“By the way, Cui Kun, didn’t you get through the hell level? What do you think?”

Cui Kun replied firmly, “The boss can definitely make it through.”

His calm and confident response made the others exchange glances.

Dou Qiang was a bit doubtful. “Even if she’s that good, this is a hell-level difficulty, isn’t it?”

“So what?” Skinny Monkey found a piece of foxtail grass from somewhere, placed it in his mouth, and sat casually on the ground, legs crossed, showing no hint of worry.

He said, “The difficulty of the checkpoints in Fourth Bureau is no less than this. Our boss went through them like it was a game, clearing over a hundred levels in one night. It was nothing for her.”

Thinking about it, Skinny Monkey’s eyes filled with admiration.

Age doesn’t matter, only skill does.

That night, all of Fourth Bureau saw unprecedented upheaval. Luo Jin, the perpetual second place, was finally no longer second. Now he was third.

The only one who could make Director Zhao go all out and bring her in despite clashing with Captain Ye was their boss.

Hearing this, Xiang Chong and Lu Shi nodded silently beside him.

Exactly, that’s just how amazing their boss was.

Their personalities were all different, but at this moment, they had a surprisingly unanimous attitude towards Zhouzhou, showing complete faith in her.

Seeing them like this, Dou Qiang and his group couldn’t help feeling a bit skeptical. They wondered if they were just boasting. After all, Zhouzhou was their boss, so it made sense for them to speak so highly of her.

But to pass the level in one go? No way, right?

Just as they were thinking this, the green light on the door suddenly lit up, and a small figure walked out to the sound of “Checkpoint cleared.”

Instantly, Dou Qiang and his group were dumbfounded. They looked down at the time.

Five—five minutes?

It took them over ten minutes to get through the hard mode!

Damn, did Captain Xi secretly take it easy on her?

“Boss!” Ignoring the others’ thoughts, Skinny Monkey tossed aside the foxtail grass and rushed over when he saw her come out.

With eyes sparkling like he was looking at a superstar, he bent over and started massaging her shoulders and back, flattering, “Boss, you’ve worked so hard!”

“Not hard at all,” Zhouzhou shook her head, her eyes also shining brightly. She turned and saw Xi Mo coming out, immediately running over to hug his leg.

“Uncle, I want to play more!”

Finally, a new game! She’d gotten tired of Fourth Bureau’s checkpoints ages ago.

The little girl’s face was full of excitement.

Watching Zhouzhou’s performance, Xi Mo suddenly had an idea.

“No rush.” He raised a hand and patted her little head soothingly. “Let’s let the others get through it first.”

He had clearly underestimated Zhouzhou. These checkpoints were only a warm-up for her; he needed something ten, even a hundred times harder for her to practice on.

With that in mind, he took out his phone and sent a message.

Then he looked up at Dou Qiang. “Next up, you’re in.”

“Alright.”

Seeing Zhouzhou come out so quickly with only a minor scratch on her arm, Dou Qiang started thinking that this so-called hell mode might just be all talk—maybe even easier than the earlier ones, just slightly harder at most.

He confidently declared, “Brothers, wait for me to come out.”

With that, he strode inside.

Xi Mo quietly covered Zhouzhou’s ears.

In the next moment, an ear-splitting wail rang out, “Ahhh—”
