The Retired Soldier King Is Forced to Join a Team

[Completed] An Alternate-World Setting

Pei Shen, a retired S-rank mercenary codenamed “Inferno.” He has blood on his hands and has seen ghosts with his own eyes. All he wants is to quietly get through four years of college while pretending to be an ordinary sports student.

Lu Zhizhou, a legendary genius from the business school, always dressed in a black coat and carrying a book with no words inside. Everyone on campus thinks there’s something wrong with him. No one knows he is the “Information Reconstructor” of a mysterious organization, with a mind that serves as his weapon.

The two men, who should never have crossed paths, are forcibly bound together as partners.

Pei Shen: “I don’t take orders, report in, or do team-building.”

Lu Zhizhou: “Good. I don’t like giving orders to useless people either.”

One can punch through a wall. The other can calculate how to kill everyone in a city.

They can’t stand each other, yet neither would survive to the next chapter without the other.

When they finally take a serious look at each other, they realize the hand they’ve been dealt is impossibly big.

A blood feud from ten years ago, an unsolved case from three years ago, and a top assassin codenamed “Doctor.”

Beneath the undercurrents of Jiangbei City, a shocking secret is beginning to surface.
