Minjun, always quick to lighten the mood, nudged Wuxie playfully. "Well, well, well, looks like we're in for quite the adventure, eh, Wuxie?" he quipped, a mischievous glint in his eyes.

Dan, ever the voice of reason, chimed in, his expression serious. "I agree, Wuxie. It's unusual for newcomers like us to be selected for such a crucial mission," he observed, his brow furrowed in contemplation.
