But at the mont when they saw the man’s face through the car’s tinted glass, the previously murmuring Fatty Hu felt as if his throat was gripped by an invisible giant hand, and all his words were forcibly swallowed back.
Not just him, everyone in the compartnt felt a kind of inexplicable oppressive heat and unease.
It was a shiver from biological instinct.
As if what was approaching them was not a person, but an ancient fierce beast patrolling its territory, with boiling blood.
Within that seemingly ordinary body, there seed to be energy like a volcano that could erupt at any mont.
Like a rising sun in the dark night.
Even through the car window, you could feel the suffocating heat radiation.
Even the surrounding air temperature suddenly increased at this mont.
The man walked to the front of the car, stopped, and slightly raised his head.
Under the hood, a pair of deep and calm, yet exceptionally bright eyes appeared.
He just stood there quietly, with no unnecessary movent, yet it gave a sense of impeccable perfection.
Just from his standing posture, one could tell he was a top expert.
And when his gaze casually swept across the car window, it made the five people inside simultaneously have the illusion.
That they were completely seen through, with no secrets left.
Fatty Hu’s palms were instantly covered in cold sweat.
He had been in the Martial World for many years and had seen many ruthless people.
But he had never seen soone like this... just standing there, making one unable to even raise the thought of resistance.
The car door opened with a "swish."
Professor was the first to jump out of the car, quickly stepping forward, his attitude as respectful as an old housekeeper:
"Chairman, you have arrived."
Then, he turned around and gestured to the still-dazed people in the car:
"Everyone, co out."
The five new mbers filed out.
The arrogance and doubt they had in the car were quietly dispelled at this mont, replaced by restraint and amazent.
"Chairman, these are the five newcors I ntioned before."
Professor pointed to the most burly man with a crew cut and introduced:
"This is Fatty Hu, belongs to the physical enhancent category, very strong, thick-skinned, once killed a mature black bear with his bare hands; a great front-line fighter."
Fang Cheng’s gaze landed on Fatty Hu.
Fatty Hu felt as if he was being swept by two searchlights, instinctively straightening his back, not daring to breathe loudly, honestly lowering his head and greeting:
"Hello, Chairman."
Professor then pointed to the young man wearing a baseball cap:
"This is Fei Ying, a speed enhancer, very agile in movent, good at assault and infiltration, highly skilled with knives, and has rich combat experience."
The young man, who played with the butterfly knife, had already put away his knife and took off his cap, bowing slightly to Fang Cheng to show respect.
Professor continued to introduce the other new mbers:
"This is Old Chen, awakened to Super Sensing Hearing. His ears are more sensitive than the most precise radar, can cover a kiloter range, and is urgently needed as our intelligence personnel."
"This is Xiao Ya, also the child of my old friend, awakened to Telekinesis Manipulation. Although young, her talent in spiritual power is extrely high and deserves our organization’s priority training."
Old Chen rubbed his hands together, smiling a bit awkwardly.
Xiao Ya clutched her backpack, a little shyly hiding behind Professor, peering at this young "brother" in curiosity.
Finally, Professor pointed to the silent man carrying a black violin case:
"This is Eagle Eye, dual-enhancer in both body and spirit, a forr professional shooter, his vision far exceeds ordinary people; not only is he a perfect marksman, he can even predict and control the bullet’s trajectory to achieve curved shots."
Upon hearing Professor’s introduction, Eagle Eye, unlike the others who lowered their heads, straightened his chest and stared directly at Fang Cheng.
Yet the trace of original doubt in his eyes was now replaced by deep apprehension.
Fang Cheng nodded slightly, his gaze sweeping over the five of them one by one.
These new mbers were indeed excellent candidates.
Although their eyes still carried so Martial World spirit and nonchalance, with a bit of polishing, they will beco the sharpest fangs of the Illuminati.
The reason he had Professor bring them over as soon as they arrived in East Capital was not only because he needed manpower assistance but more importantly, for intimidation purposes.
For these mutants who live on the edge, pure monetary persuasion could only gain their superficial allegiance.
Only by demonstrating absolute overwhelming strength and thods could he thoroughly conquer their hearts, ensuring they would not dare to show any hesitation when executing orders in the future.
