    🔥🔥🔥#! "Freshman Internship, You Go to 749 to Contain Monsters" I went to an internship during the summer vacation of my freshman year. Others were just moving bricks. The protagonist Lu Ding was so good. He dug out strange bleeding stones at the construction site. As a time traveler, he also brought monsters to the prison to contain monsters. He just picked up an impact drill and started working. This is not over yet, he turned around and joined Bureau 749, relying on the resources of the Bureau to contain monsters and ghosts all over the world. The Nanshan stubborn stone and the black old lady that popped out from "Zi Buyu" and "Liao Zhai" were all collected by him, and cool abilities were unlocked every time he took them in. Lu Ding is a ruthless person who shows no mercy when facing monsters. He can be called the "ruthless character" of Game 749. The book incorporates a large number of classical fantasy and monster elements, the plot is as fast as a rocket, and the battle scenes are more exciting than the last, making people's adrenaline soar. If you like fantasy adventures and passionate novels, don't miss it, you're guaranteed to be addicted as soon as you read it! [Petrochemical]
