Poverty makes me capable of anything.

This time, however, Aoki still asked Anran what she wanted the information for.

He was worried that someone like Anran, who didn't play by the rules, might suddenly go up and chop Olivia up.

If An Ran were to actually do something like that, it would be truly outrageous.

Olivia's family was also a great noble family with a history of more than 500 years. Their power was no less than that of the Vesa family, and Olivia herself held a high position.

If we were to kill him now, the reformers would likely be exposed.

Moreover, other partners will feel uneasy when they see how fierce you are.

"Don't worry, I just saw Richie go to see Olivia, so I looked up some information to find out what was going on."

"Is that really true?" Aoki asked suspiciously.

"What else could it be?"

Anran shrugged.

It's like she's some kind of brute, how could that be!

It's simply ruining her reputation.

Ha, how superficial!

Anran opened the document.

Olivia Hunt.

Descendants of a hunter family.

Hunter, which is the surname Hunter.

This surname wasn't chosen randomly.

The Hunter family really are hunters.

To put it more accurately, their family name comes from this profession.

They made pacts with alien creatures and fought by summoning them.

The rise of the Hunter family is built upon the history of the empire's southward expansion, and it was achieved through hard-fought battles against extraterrestrial beings.

The so-called star creatures, also known as void creatures, are different from the void that appears in Nagria.

These celestial beings roam the stars, with the largest recorded being hundreds of kilometers long.

The alien creatures summoned by the Hunter family are not limited to those from outer space; they have special contracting methods.

Olivia's level is 103.

Surprisingly high, and due to his special status, he is an important NPC on the map of the Empire, with several rows of halos around him, making him much stronger than An Ran, who has only recently emerged from the novice stage.

An Ran thought of a very vivid metaphor.

She came from the countryside, the queen of the countryside, carrying an identity plaque recognized by the villagers. She arrived in the capital full of excitement, only to find that every person with a reputation she encountered had at least three medals hanging on their chest.

There are so many clothes that they can barely be hung up, so I have to stack them one by one.

The Olivia family's defenses are very tight; you can sense the various intertwined signal fields from a great distance, so it seems impossible to send a detector in to eavesdrop.

Anran could only watch helplessly as Olivia went inside, waiting in the distance.

"Their intelligence is already quite high, but they still lack new blueprints in terms of exploration," An Ran muttered to herself.

The blueprints I got from Tan He last time didn't include this kind of information.

The blueprint sharing platform she set up to scam players isn't very effective at the moment because the players' levels are too low, and the items they share aren't useful.

"The cost of slowly gambling on blueprints is too high."

Anran pondered that although she wasn't unlucky, she was far from being lucky either, even with hidden luck.

"If you're asking who can quickly get a large number of blueprints..."

An Ran immediately thought of three places.

"The Mechanic Church, the Mechanic Guild, and the Omnics."

"The Mechanicus is undoubtedly the easiest target here, but morally speaking, it wouldn't be right to rob them. We have conflicts with the Omnics, but we can't defeat them, so we can only target the Mechanic Guild..."

It's not that I'm not human, it's just that you guys are too tempting.

……

I'm finally back.

Richie, who had been waiting in the house for a long time, muttered to himself before smiling and going to greet them.

Olivia hung the clothes on the wall and walked over without expression.

"I heard you wanted to see me?"

Richie cut to the chase: "I heard that you and Vesa don't get along, Olivia. It just so happens that I also have an unresolved feud with Vesa. We should be partners on the same side!"

"..."

Who the hell is your partner?!

But Olivia didn't give Richie a hard time.

She simply looked at him calmly.

If you can't give me a clear answer, then I'll show you what it means to "attack friendly forces."

"Didn't we have a bombing incident during the pop music awards ceremony a while ago? The planning bureau official who was giving a speech outside was killed in the bombing."

Richie stared intently at Olivia's changing expression.

There has been no change.

"I suspect that Visa orchestrated this explosion!"

His words were startling.

Olivia was finally somewhat moved.

What is your basis for this claim?

Richie said, "Visa went to a pop music awards ceremony alone after the explosion. At that time, he was secretly in contact with a stranger. As soon as I found that stranger, after only a few words, the stranger threatened to kill me with him."

Olivia's face darkened slightly: "What kind of lousy evidence is this? You can only say that he has some schemes going on behind the scenes."

"I still have some, I still have some."

Richie quickly recounted his recent experiences.

“The moment I try to investigate Vesa, something unexpected happens. You see, I just left the hospital, and the next thing I know, someone is impersonating me and shouting in Cloud Square…”

"Wait, you're saying that the person in the news isn't you?" Olivia frowned.

"Even if I'm stunned by the beating, I can't possibly run out and embarrass myself at this time."

“Yes, that’s true.” Olivia nodded. “You’ve already embarrassed yourself enough.”

I……

Richie's face darkened.

If you weren't so awesome, I would have called you an idiot right now!

I was furious.

But Richie still put on a good show.

He chuckled, "Look, there's always someone preventing me from investigating. Vesa must have something to hide. That guy from the Planning Department was just killed in the bombing not long ago, and now something's happened to Vesa's family. There's definitely more to this than meets the eye. I don't have a way to continue right now, but Olivia, you're different. You have the ability to carry it out. Once you really uncover the truth, Vesa will definitely be in deep trouble."

"Based on your baseless guesses?" Olivia's eyes flashed with sarcasm.

His mind, however, was racing.

Richie's words were rambling, but they revealed a fact.

Visa is definitely plotting something, but it's hard to say whether it's related to the bombing.

only……

As Vesa's old rival, Olivia was very interested in getting involved, no matter what Vesa was planning.

Turn the good into the bad, and the bad into the bad.

He's happy to cause trouble for Visa.

Will it work out or not?

While Olivia remained silent, Richie was quite uneasy. He had come to find Olivia because of the significant conflict between her and Vesa, and because of her own strength.

If you were to approach someone else, such a vague and incoherent explanation would be even less persuasive.

Fortunately, although Olivia's attitude was not good, the answer she gave still excited Richie.

"Tell me what you've found out."

Richie was overjoyed and quickly spilled out all the information he knew.

"Since he doesn't want us to know, then I'm going to investigate anyway."

Richie's face immediately lit up with a smile.

"I have a strong feeling that I can uncover a secret here that can deal a heavy blow to Visa!"

"Tell me the address."

Olivia remained noncommittal.

He looked up at the time; it was past 7 p.m. Although it was already dark, it didn't matter to them at all.

“Well…” Richie suddenly became embarrassed, “I don’t really know the exact location either.”

Olivia was taken aback.

It took him a while to turn his head and stare intently at Richie.

“I had previously commissioned a stranger to investigate. I only knew that the mansion was not far from Visa’s residence, but I didn’t ask for details about its exact location because I was in a hurry to get the results,” Richie said “weakly.”

"..."

I'm going to kick you away with one kick!
