Starry Sky Railway: No one understands the Amber King better than me.

Those executives certainly don't come down here on a regular basis. Otherwise, why do you think this place is shaped like a pyramid? Besides, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't want to come here. Isn't it comfortable sitting in my own office?"

Ai Bai was used to this.

"The closer you get to the top, the higher the level of authority required. Above P40 is a dividing line. Once you get to the top level, that's the area exclusively for the minister."

"Compared to the bottom, the space above is actually a bit small, isn't it?"

"The place is small, so we'll make up for it with space technology. Come on, I'll take you up there to show you. I just received a notification that a high-ranking official wants to see you."

"High-level?"

Lin Yuan murmured.

...........

Unlike the branch offices where elevators were used, this building uses teleportation technology to connect different floors.

This type of technology, which is still in the laboratory stage in many places, has already been widely used by civilians in Pierpoint.

As long as you have sufficient identity and permissions, or have obtained permission, you can instantly arrive at your desired destination. It's quick and efficient.

"We've arrived."

A flash of blue light appeared before their eyes, and Lin Yuan and Ai Bai were still standing on the teleportation platform, but the scenery around them was completely different.

Everything around quieted down, and soothing sounds echoed in the air.

Compared to the cluttered information below, the area in front of me was noticeably quieter.

However, in contrast, the huge reception hall in front of us is filled with various fantastical sculptures that resemble a flowing river of stars.

Inside the huge, transparent display case, all sorts of strange and wonderful things float, making it look like a museum at first glance.

"here it is?"

"This is the P45 level access control area, the office of Mr. Alan Nightingale, our Director of Security Affairs in Market Development. He is one of the implementers of 'Project Sunrise'."

Ai Bai explained in a low voice.

"Follow me, and be careful not to look around."

Compared to the massive urban area below the central public level, the area in front of us is significantly smaller, yet much more refined.

As the scene before them changed several times, the two arrived at a slightly antique door.

At the entrance, two neatly dressed company employees stood on either side.

They wore thin smart glasses, their eyes scanning the newcomers up and down, their expressions carrying a hint of arrogance.

After scanning the two individuals' information using the field, the two guards spoke up, one on the left and one on the right:

"Lin Yuan, please wait here for a moment."

"Manager Ai Bai, please wait here as well."

The two company employees spoke politely, but their tone was utterly cold.

Although their rank might not be as high as Ai Bai and the other two in front of them, they were still officials of the seventh rank in front of the prime minister, and their confidence naturally came from what they had behind them.

Shortly afterward, one of them received the notification and turned his gaze to Lin Yuan:

"Go in, Director Nightingale wants to see you."

The gate slowly opened.

The moment Lin Yuan stepped inside, his eyes were immediately filled with dazzling light.

It's less like entering a room and more like being immersed in a vast sea of ​​stars.

Particle projections, transformed into a starry sky, covered the entire area, encompassing the magnificent spectacle of countless planets and galaxies within this small space.

Lin Yuan looked up.

Ahead, a portly man strolled leisurely among the stars, his medals gleaming and his fingers adorned with beads that sparkled like a galaxy.

Behind him, a tall, thin man followed closely.

Lin Yuan looked around and then slowly walked forward.

Noticing the commotion, the tall, thin man raised his hand, gesturing for him to stop and be quiet.

The portly man was slightly bent over, observing something with his right eye, which resembled an amplifier.

"So, this is the Legion's latest route?"

A deep, magnetic voice with a strange accent rang out from that person.

"Yes, sir, this is the latest marching route of the legion commanded by the Annihilation Lord [Star Howl]."

The tall, thin subordinate behind him answered in a low voice.

"Oh, let me see... Sidwell, Serion, Seidon, Lamer... tsk, so many companies' territories, what bad luck."

The overweight man who spoke was none other than Director Nightingale. He straightened up slightly, a hint of dissatisfaction in his eyes.

"Issue warnings to these global branches, prioritizing the protection of company assets. In addition, grant the departmental authority for arms sales, and the company will provide all moral support except for direct confrontation."

"Yes."

"Also, this place..."

Nightingale slightly raised her finger, pointing to several star sectors along the Starsong March route.

"This is a desolate star sector; there is no civilization within its boundaries."

"Very well, then let's send a fleet to lay interstellar minefields here in advance. If necessary, we can blow up all the star-forming barrier zones. Hmph... Damn legions."

Nightingale snorted and with a flick of her finger, a continuous cluster of planetary systems instantly turned into particles and disappeared without a trace.

"Oh, I almost forgot."

The director straightened up and looked at Lin Yuan.

With a wave of his hand, the starry sea formed by particle projection instantly scattered in all directions like sand.

A gentle light shone from above.

Nightingale narrowed his eyes slightly, stroked his neatly trimmed beard, and his gaze reflected an emotionless light behind his round glasses.

"You're Lin Yuan?"

.........

Chapter 167 Value

"You're Lin Yuan?"

Nightingale raised her head slightly, her gaze sweeping down on the person before her.

Lin Yuan stepped forward calmly and replied indifferently, "Greetings, Director Nightingale."

"........."

After a brief silence, Nightingale's face lit up with admiration.

"Good courage, young man. Since the launch of Project Sunrise, the Market Development Department has discovered many valuable talents from all corners of the galaxy, and you are the most outstanding among them."

I've read your previous experience and report in Tver; it was very impressive that you managed to stand out from such a small place.

The security director looked Lin Yuan over, his expression growing increasingly satisfied.

"The cooperation with the Black Tower space station is very good, and Minister Oswaldo also knows about your situation."

It's a pity the minister is at a critical juncture right now, otherwise you might have had the opportunity to meet with him personally.

Although you may not know what happened, the space station trip did bring significant benefits to the department.

Merit should be rewarded. So congratulations, young man, a rising star at the P40 level has emerged.

Upon hearing this, a smile appeared on Lin Yuan's previously calm face.

"Thank you for the promotion, leader."

At this moment, even the tall, thin man behind the director showed a slight look of surprise.

"P40 represents the dividing line between middle and senior management in the company."

Nightingale strolled slowly.

"When our lower-level employees are still struggling to make a living with tiny credit points of tens or hundreds of millions, these are just meaningless characters to us."

Wealth, resources, and information—we shouldn't use credit points to pursue value, but rather use our actions to measure and create value.

The ornaments on his body, resembling military medals, jingled crisply with each step he took.

"Just like when you go to work on the space station, you don't see much credit point income, but its real value to the department is unparalleled."

"Been taught a lesson."

Lin Yuan slightly raised his eyes, but he had no idea what the other party was trying to tell him.

"Such opportunities are rare. Young man, you are very lucky and good at seizing opportunities."

And now that you've qualified for the highest platform, how many such opportunities will you have left?

Nightingale bowed her head slightly, her voice echoing in the room, while her gaze was hidden behind her glasses.

"The Sunrise Project is just such an opportunity. Think of the ten people from Stoneheart next door; some of them are young but already on par with me, looking down on me from a higher position. And we... can now give you the same opportunity."

Young man, there are many projects for you to complete and many opportunities for you to showcase your talents and create value.

As the executor of this plan, the helmsman of this ship, I can take you to farther places. Perhaps in just a few years, you new forces will be able to stand shoulder to shoulder with me.

Therefore, given the limited number of positions, priority should naturally be given to those with talent. What do you think?

Nightingale stared intently at him.

"So that's how it is. They're here to recruit me? Security matters, you're not looking for thugs, are you?"

Lin Yuan's mind raced.

"Mr. Nightingale, if such an opportunity truly existed, I believe no discerning person would miss it. But I have a question..."

"Oh, tell me about it."

The other party became interested.
