Poverty makes me capable of anything.

"No, it's said that he was shot in his sleep."

"Holy crap, this is big news! Is a new plot event about to unfold?"

……

“I heard from a friend in the next district that a city called Wutong City was bombed by Morning Star. Because the signal towers in Shuangyue City have not been repaired yet, and the network in Wutong City has been hacked, the communication of the entire city has been paralyzed.”

"Good heavens, one of the most important factors in modern warfare is information. If communications are destroyed, what's the point of fighting?"

"Yes, Wutong City is finished, but what's even more terrifying is that there's supposedly a huge hydroelectric power station near Wutong City."

"Uh……"

"The Morning Star faction is indeed very strong. I knew the developers wouldn't be so stupid as to create two factions with unequal strength."

“But something’s not right. Morningstar used to be a defeated opponent of the Imperial Government. How come it has suddenly risen to prominence?”

"Who knows? I'll still choose the Empire side."

……

Two very important pieces of information.

If the conquest of Wutong City was a sequel to the Twin Moon City War, then what was the assassination of the mayor?

Was this actually done by someone from Morningstar?

In less than a day since I last went on the forum, the outside world has been turned upside down.

It looks like the confrontation between the factions is about to begin.

While An Ran was still deep in thought, she was suddenly patted on the shoulder.

She took a very quick step back, and only when she turned around did she see that it was Zhou Jieyu.

"It's already 9:40, let's go in." Zhou Jieyu's face was full of smiles; she was already looking forward to her game life after joining Jiuge.

"Ah."

Amidst the puzzled gazes of the players, An Ran, Zhou Jieyu, and the leader of the charge entered Jiuge.

"welcome!"

The female NPC who guided us yesterday spotted the three of them immediately.

She quickly came over and said, "The meeting doesn't start for another 15 minutes. Let me take you to the meeting room now."

"Okay, thank you for your help!" An Ran nodded.

If there are no special restrictions, Anran is full of confidence now.

Leading the charge requires much more composure.

As for Zhou Jieyu, she was already lost in her own world and couldn't tell north from south.

The meeting room was located further inside.

It's clearly not in the same league as the rooms that were inspected outside.

The NPC who was being guided pushed open the door and went inside first, followed by An Ran.

An Ran looked around the room, and when her gaze shifted to the right, she suddenly noticed that there was already a girl there.

She was wearing a plaid skirt and a white long-sleeved shirt, sitting quietly on the sofa.

Her long, jet-black hair fell naturally over her shoulders.

She was reading a book, which obscured her face.

This is a very typical literary girl!

Is this the vice minister of Jiuge?

Such a thought was immediately nipped in the bud; no, that's not it.

Because she has an ID above her head.

ID: Monster Mountain Man.

Which player soloed the dungeon?

An Ran was stunned.

Zhou Jieyu and the leader of the charge were stunned when they realized this.

Literary girl?

Are you kidding me?

Chapter 39 About the Past

Monster Mountain Man!

The first player to solo the Nine Songs dungeon.

He's now quite well-known on the exclusive forum for user #1886.

She is a loner.

Information about her is not detailed even in forums where information is shared.

All we know is that she is female.

Apart from that, there is no other information.

Even experienced drivers who happen to appear at the right time can't reveal her measurements.

Not to mention the six dimensions and profession.

And now, Anran and her companions have encountered the demon mountain man here.

Yes.

This is not surprising.

It's perfectly normal for the monsters and the mountain people to participate in today's meeting since they recently completed the dungeon together.

An Ran was simply surprised by the aura of the mountain demon.

Literary girl.

At first, Anran thought she had gotten away with it by kidnapping a retired official, but now Anran thinks it's more likely that she used her superb negotiation skills to make the other party submit.

Hearing the commotion outside, the mountain demon finally put down his book.

She revealed her face, a face that was in no way inferior to Zhou Jieyu's, possessing the same 7 points of charm. The appearance of the Monster Mountain Man also had the temperament of a literary young woman.

She has a rather gentle appearance.

The mountain demon glanced at An Ran and the others.

Her gaze lingered on An Ran for a moment longer before she picked up her book again and immersed herself in her own world.

"Everyone's here. Please sit and wait a moment. The deputy minister will be here soon." The guiding NPC said this and then walked out.

Anran sat down on the sofa and waited for Vice Minister Jiuge to come over.

The same applies to leading the charge.

Zhou Jieyu is quite restless; she seems very interested in the monster mountain people.

When choosing seats, they would deliberately sit next to the Mountain Demon, and even secretly peek over to see what book the Mountain Demon was reading.

However, the mountain demon had already seen through Zhou Jieyu's intentions.

She shifted her hips to the side and twisted her body slightly, so that she was almost facing Zhou Jieyu directly.

"..."

Zhou Jieyu had no choice but to give up her plan to spy.

However, it was the monster mountain man's actions that caught the sharp-eyed An Ran's eye as she noticed the corner of the book the monster was reading.

"Submission, conquest, sister, below, love..."

Anran only saw these kinds of words.

Is it a novel about war?

"Squeak-"

Suddenly the door was pushed open.

A tall, well-proportioned man walked in.

The four people sitting in the room immediately stood up.

"It's a pleasure to meet you all." The man nodded. He was dressed very formally in a uniform that An Ran had never seen before. "Let me introduce myself first. I am Lu Changming, the vice minister of Jiuge."

"Greetings, Minister Lü," the leader of the charge said.

He seems quite comfortable in this situation, and he is still performing very well without the slightest stage fright.

Lu Changming got straight to the point: "I've seen your performance in the assessment. I'm meeting with you today for two reasons: first, to get to know you better, and second, to solicit your opinions."

Now, let's get to the main point.

Remaining calm and composed.

What Lü Changming is about to say will determine whether they join Jiuge or the Security Department.

Compared to the Security Department, which oversees the military, An Ran's intention is naturally Jiu Ge.

Once she joins the army, she will lose her freedom for a considerable period of time.

This is not what Anran wanted to see.

Fortunately.

“Of the four of you, An Ran performed the best.” This was the first thing Lü Changming said after he spoke again.

The mountain demon looked at An Ran in surprise.

"However, the other three are all outsiders."

This is Enron's disadvantage.
