My Player 2

Chapter 435 The future is promising
Akamia, the Trade World, is a security center.

Pandoragon, carrying the file, walked into the commander-in-chief's office and handed a photograph to the one-eyed man who was fiddling with a pistol, saying:
"We've found an abyss monster, but its identity is somewhat unusual. We need you to verify it and figure out how to deal with it."

"Something from the Abyss really infiltrated?" The S-rank officer from the core city took the photo, glanced at it, and immediately sat up straight. "Are you sure?"

Pandoragon nodded.

"I need to make a phone call first." The one-eyed man put down the toy in his hand, waved his hand, and gestured for the foreign mercenary to go outside and wait.

After more than ten minutes, he finally brought Pandoragon back and gave him instructions:
"Never mind for now."

Pandoragon nodded slightly.

Seeing his uninterested look, the one-eyed man offered to explain:
“This guy is a high-ranking member of another world. Even if he is a monster from the abyss, a monster that can evade the detection of the world lord, he won’t be exposed for an auction. So this is a matter for another world, and we don’t need to make a fuss about it.”

After saying that, the one-eyed man paused for a moment and continued, "However, if you can force his true form to appear after the auction, not only will we security guards have to take action, but even the tourists who participated in the auction will have an obligation to come up and lend a hand."

"Should we wait until the auction is over?" Pandoragon nodded slightly.

He knew that the natives of this world did not fully trust the players' abilities, so he planned to play it safe and wait until the auction was over before sending them to kill the [Abyss] monsters.

Even if something goes wrong, it will be attributed to these mercenaries who had malicious intentions and robbed the auction guests in secret, and will have nothing to do with the auction organizers.

"Anyway," the one-eyed man reminded, "S-class bosses are incredibly destructive. Let's wait until the auction is over before making any decisions. Don't fight S-class bosses in our world; we can't handle the civilian casualties."

If we were to actually fight it in the city, the aftershocks could potentially affect the entire continent.

Pandoragon shrugged.

Now that the employer has made his stance clear, they'll wait until after the auction to intercept and kill that guy in Starport. Maybe they can even steal some of the auction items then.

……

after a while.

【Kaka】 took out the newspapers that filled the mailbox, returned home after a long absence, went to the kitchen to make a cup of hot tea, and slowly began to read the newspaper.

A full week has passed since he joined that strange mercenary group for an in-depth interview in the New World.

His new photos taken on the S-class battlefield received high praise from the editor-in-chief.

The emergence of these new mercenaries prompted the editor-in-chief to urgently revise the layout.

If all goes as expected, the latest issue of "Seven Leaves Weekly" will feature a large portion of an interview he wrote.

He took a sip of tea, put down the cup, and opened the latest issue of "Seven Leaves Weekly".

Tentacles and Girls? Exclusive Interview! A Heated Battle in a Sticky World!

The title is somewhat exaggerated, but since Seven Leaves Weekly cannot compete with major media outlets like Star Sea Weekly, it can only find another way, with an overall style that leans towards entertainment.

However, as a long-established media outlet, even if the headlines are a bit outrageous, the content is still guaranteed.

This report, written by the newspaper's senior reporter Kaka, tells the story from a first-person perspective of his journey with a newly formed mercenary group to the new world to deal with the monsters of the Abyss.

This mercenary group called "Hall of Righteousness" consists mostly of men who can transform into young girls. They are able to instantly distinguish which side is the monster from the "Abyss" without being distracted by their vision.

More importantly, these mercenaries, whose strength is only A-level, possess the ability to defeat S-level enemies.

The girls systematically unleashed their potential, sacrificing their lives to figure out the enemy's methods. Then, one of them suddenly rose to S-rank and ignited her life force immediately.

In the end, only one elven girl remained alive among the mercenaries of the "Hall of Righteousness." But when they returned to the starport, they encountered the very men who had recently perished.

These mercenaries are immortal.

They come from a newly formed world and call themselves "Cataclysmic Disasters." Although their highest strength is only A-level, their immortality and unknown numbers make it easy to foresee their future influence.

[Kaka] put down the newspaper, quite satisfied with the report she had written.

He took a sip of tea, put down his own newspaper, and started reading what news his colleagues had for the week.

When he picked up the Starry Sea Weekly, the whole bird suddenly paused.

This week's Starsea Weekly headline is about the battle at Akamia Starport.

A group of mercenaries attacked the chief of staff from the "magical world Miller" at the starport of Akamia, forcing the chief of staff to reveal his true form, which turned out to be a "Mirror God" from the "Abyss".

A powerful figure who wields influence across dozens of worlds and advocates for the establishment of a joint defense perimeter turns out to be an undercover agent planted by the Abyss.

This is absolutely big news.

This report didn't go into much detail about the battle, but instead focused on describing the terrible consequences that would have occurred if the chief of staff's disguise hadn't been exposed.

Meanwhile, Starsea Weekly also devoted a small portion of its coverage to the mercenaries who could see through the true nature of the Abyss.

These mercenaries also called themselves the Calamity.

Kaka immediately realized that these mercenaries who were causing chaos in Starport were mostly from the same world as the "Hall of Righteousness" he knew.

A group of mercenaries with A-rank strength, capable of identifying even the World Lord's [Abyss] monsters, and able to resurrect...

The Star Sea is probably going to be in chaos.

……

As the players' fame grew, they monopolized the mercenary business in less than a year.

Whether it's clearing out pirates in the surrounding area or dealing with wars in the world, as long as you can pass the mercenary platform's review and post your request on the notice board, a group of fearless and powerful individuals will help you solve the problem.

Tens of thousands of players of rank A and above have completely taken away the jobs of other mercenaries.

Furthermore, as the number of "checkpoints" outside the initial world increases, the player's activity area is slowly expanding.

Through "assembly missions," they have participated in no fewer than five world defense battles.

Tens of thousands of players, all above level 150, fought several battles against the invaders from the Abyss on a massive battlefield with thousands of S-rank bosses, assisting their allies' S-rank combatants.

However, in the previous wars, the player's power was not enough to influence the outcome.

However, the most recent battle took place outside the world of the shareholders of [Collaboration Company]. Li Li paid a price for this, placing a choir as a save point in that world.

With save points, players can respawn nearby after dying, and their combat strength will be completely different.

Despite having only tens of thousands of A-rank demigods, they managed to reverse a war that was almost certain to be lost by relying on near-infinite resurrection.

As a result, they gained widespread fame and came into the sights of the higher-ups at Shuhai.
