"So I propose that I lead a highly mobile team to interfere with Cocolia. Disperse the members of Cocolia to prevent them from gathering." Wang Chen said.

"But...if we split off another team...there won't be enough people." Theresa asked doubtfully.

"It doesn't matter. We don't need the team members under the captains present here. Me, Kiana, Xiaoqi and three others at home. A team of six plus the cooperation of the intelligence duo is enough." Wang Chen said.

"This...what's the risk? How do you plan to arrange it?" In fact, Theresa felt that this kind of team that attracted firepower had the highest risk probability. She didn't want Kiana, whom she cared about, to take this risk, but Theresa couldn't be too partial to Kiana in front of everyone.

"Don't worry, it's not dangerous at all. On the contrary, it will disgust Cocolia and force Cocolia to divide her forces." Wang Chen said with a smile.

"As we all know, logistics are always essential for a long-term combat deployment. Isn't this what Principal Theresa was worried about at the beginning? That's why she asked us to move supplies. The same is true for Anti-Entropy, especially with so many of them, the demand must be very high."

"So you plan to plunder their supplies? But isn't this the most dangerous thing? The logistics of an army are basically heavily defended, and Cocolia also surrounded them in the first place." Theresa said with a frown.

"No, no, no, Principal Theresa, I never intended to touch the anti-entropy materials." Wang Chen said with a smile.

"It is impossible for the Anti-Entropy's material warehouse to store a quarter's worth of supplies. After all, this is the Far East, not their North American base. Especially for mechanical Titan soldiers like them, the demand for mechanical parts, steel, and alloys is huge. Such large-volume items cannot be stored. They can only be transported by the North American headquarters or built locally."

"They took control of the southern part of the Far East at the beginning. In addition to controlling the ME Society, they also wanted to control the wealthy area in the south of the city. Their goal was to make those capitalists in the south of the city become their material support. This was the basis for them to fight in the Far East for a long time."

“Whether it’s transporting supplies to the North American base or directly building and obtaining them on the mainland, we cannot do without the support of the capitalists in the south of the city. After all, the most expensive thing in war is not food, but money!” As a heavy player of Paradox, he is very clear about the demand for money in war.

"Therefore, they have another reason to focus on the industrial zone in the north of the city. They have just suffered a war loss recently and need to activate this industrial zone to help them produce mechanical parts and Titans. After all, it takes a lot of time to transport materials from North America across the ocean."

"So in fact, Cocolia is in urgent need of supplies and funds now. What will happen if I take action against those wealthy businessmen and capitalists? After all, they are just ordinary people. It is much easier to deal with them than to face Cocolia. Moreover, Cocolia will have to send people to protect those wealthy businessmen." Wang Chen said with a smile.

"Ah, this..." Wang Chen's words and plan confused everyone present. Cut off Cocolia's funding chain by attacking the rich businessman? Is there such a dirty trick? Can the war be fought like this?

"What do you think, Theresa? You think this plan is great? I think it's a bit of a waste for the six of us to go out together with those ordinary people. It's too simple. Maybe I can make some money and give some gold coins to everyone, which can be regarded as a contribution to everyone's material needs. Hehehe..." Wang Chen laughed like a villain.

Theresa looked at Wang Chen speechlessly and said, "Be a human being. You bully ordinary people and rob them. What kind of destiny warrior are you?"

Chapter 66: Side Quest Begins

Finally, the battle strategy of the meeting was finalized. Fu Hua led the team to deal with the Anti-Entropy members who infiltrated the northern part of the city, while Ji Zi led the team to explore the location of the Collapse Furnace and make a plan for infiltration. Wang Chen made random arrangements and acted independently. After all, no one wanted to do such a thing as bullying ordinary people with him.

Of course, they would not stop or blame Wang Chen for this. After all, although Wang Chen's tricks were detrimental and cheap, they were indeed useful and effective. After all, there was a great collapse now. Even if Wang Chen used some means that touched the bottom line of humanity, it was estimated that some people would turn a blind eye, not to mention this kind of insignificant trick.

Of course, Theresa would never have thought that letting Wang Chen do what she wanted would cause her so many headaches. But that was a story for later. Who could have told Theresa that she didn't know what a big job Wang Chen would do later?

After the meeting was over, everyone started to get busy, except Theresa who was in charge of the overall situation at the standby base, Wang Chen's team and the intelligence duo who had no tasks to arrange for the time being. It was almost five o'clock in the afternoon, and it was almost time for dinner.

So Wang Chen suggested to bring Theresa to visit their cabin and invite Theresa to their family dinner. Theresa wanted to stay at the base, but for the sake of Kiana and her sister, she had to agree out of concern, and Theresa also wanted to meet the other three members of Wang Chen's team.

……

"System, what is my current synchronization points?"

"Ding - You have been in contact with Theresa, Himeko, Bronya, and Fu Hua for a long time, and have collected a large number of synchronization points.

The current synchronization points are as follows: 6170 + 600 pending points (Bronya) + 4400 pending points (Theresa) + 4400 pending points (Himeko) + 4400 pending points (Fu Hua)."

"I have 20 consecutive draws all of a sudden... but I have to take a shower... after all, Fu Hua's Fei Qi is too terrifying! I can't waste these points. The commission has been completed, it should be done by [Mei] and the others, and they cleared out the Honkai beasts in the city today." Wang Chen complained in his heart while sitting in the car.

"Host, the side quest has been generated? Do you want to check it out? Because it is the first side quest, the rewards are very rich~" the system prompt voice said.

"Oh? Give it to me quickly." Wang Chen rubbed his hands. He loved the reward of side quests and the like. Is it finally coming to life?

"Ding - Side Quest - Shadow of Sky City.

"Fuck, it's so long... and there are so many good things! I'm dazzled!" Wang Chen couldn't help but complain.

"Wait... ■■ unlocked! So I have another skill? A skill of the same status as transcendence?" Compared to those rewards, Wang Chen suddenly noticed the reward at the bottom with two ■■ written on it. ■■ is different, Wang Chen can clearly feel that it is closely related to his own experience and lost memories.

Wang Chen has always been concerned about his lost memories and experiences. Who are the characters in his mind? What kind of stories have happened to him? Now he finally has a chance to uncover a little secret.

Wang Chen decided to complete this side quest, which just happened to coincide with his actions of harassing Cocolia's vision.

"The shadow of Changkong City... Haha, interesting, then let's start with forming the Phantom Thieves." Wang Chen smiled slightly. The young talents of Far East love this kind of thing the most. I believe Mei and Jiuxiao must be willing to participate.

……

"Okay, we have cleared out the Honkai Beasts for today. Thank you all for your hard work. Jiuxiao and Mei, you two worked well together today. Keep up the good work." After Mei wiped out the Honkai Beasts, she withdrew her hand and turned to look at the duo who were already sitting on the ground to rest. Today, they had defeated the crossbow-level Honkai Beasts and realized how powerful Kiana was. She was able to deal with this batch of Honkai Beasts so easily. There was still a big gap between the two of them and Kiana.

"Thank you all for coming to help Lin again. Here are some hot tea and snacks. Everyone, take a good rest." Lin came over to the three of them with a tray. On the tray were four cups of hot tea and a box of biscuits. The four of them sat together, eating snacks and drinking tea while taking a rest.

"It's a pity that I didn't see Brother Wang Chen today? Was he busy with something?" Lin asked curiously.

"Well, he took that white-haired sister to meet her relatives today, so he won't be back until the evening. He should be on his way home now." Mei said slowly. Rin felt a little bit sorry after hearing it, but Rin soon started chatting with Jiuxiao and Mei. The world of children is so simple and happy.

Mei kept looking at the chat messages on her phone to get the information she had received from the captain. Suddenly, Mei found herself being pulled into a group chat called the Phantom Thieves, created by the Phantom Thief Big Silver Wolf.

"Big Silver Wolf... is it [Bronya]?" [Mei] obviously knew about the other party's arrival. There are two people named Neko and Joker in the group, I think it is [Kiana] and the captain. My code name is: Crimson. It's really simple and easy to understand.

"I wonder what good things the captain and the others are planning. Haha." [Mei] smiled, looking forward to what kind of surprises Wang Chen and others would bring her when she returned home.

Chapter 67: Theresa Loses Her Dignity

"Your house is quite big, Captain Wang Chen." Theresa entered Wang Chen's modest abode. Although it looked small from the outside, it was actually quite large inside.

"Wait a minute, the room may shake a little, you guys calm down first." Wang Chen counted the current number of people, himself, the Kiana sisters, the two Mei, Houraiji Kyushu, the two Bronyas, plus Theresa who might stay overnight, there are already nine people, and there are only 7 rooms in his bedroom. It's time to upgrade the home again.

"Spend 500 synchronization points to upgrade the room." Wang Chen said slowly.

"Ding - the home is upgraded to Lv3, two more bedrooms are added, the original bathroom is upgraded to a large bathroom, a small bathroom is added, two more toilets are added, and the master bedroom space is increased~ The current remaining points are: 6170 + 350 pending points (Bronya) + 4150 pending points (Theresa)."

"The points haven't changed? Oh, I just got 250 points from Bronya and Theresa. Hmm? I can directly control the sovereignty of this room." Wang Chen complained, and then found that he could directly connect to the main control light ball of the room through the source of thought and directly arrange the furniture in the room. There happened to be a lot of furniture left to be placed, and now there are a few more rooms, so they can be placed in place.

"Wow! Is there an earthquake?" Theresa hurriedly held onto the sofa, then accidentally fell on it.

"My brother-in-law is using black technology again, and the room has become a lot bigger." Kiana said as she watched the surrounding space begin to grow bigger and wider.

"Okay, the shaking is over, aunt, do you want me to help you up?" [Kiana] looked at Theresa who looked so embarrassed. She remembered that her aunt was most afraid of disasters like earthquakes. After all, she didn't grow up in the Far East and was not used to it yet.

"Hmm... This sofa is so soft and comfortable... Ah, I feel like my body and mind are about to be healed. How can there be such a comfortable sofa?" However, instead of being frightened, Theresa seemed to be lying on the sofa, her eyes filled with nostalgia, as if she wanted to merge into one with the sofa beneath her.

"Well...it's worthy of being five-star furniture. The sofa is so comfortable. It would be even better if I could see the super cool Thomas the Tank Engine." Wang Chen glanced at the sofa and said secretly.

"bang"

"Oh, there are quite a lot of guests today." A voice came from outside the door.

"Hey, Scarlet is back~" [Kiana] said, turning around with a smile.

"Long time no see, y... Scarlet J... Ahem, Scarlet sister." Bronya changed her words twice in a row, which was a bit unnatural. She suddenly remembered that if she was the mother of the main world, she could not call Mei sister. After all, Bronya knew that Mei sister had reached the age where she did not like being called old.

"Pfft... hehe, you too, Sister Alexandra." Mei naturally found this address both funny and satisfying. Being called sister by Bronya made her feel a lot younger.

"Scarlet, you have worked hard for the special training and leading them today. How did you two perform today? What do you think you have gained?" Wang Chen also came to the three of them to express his condolences to Mei, Raiden Mei and Houraiji Jiuxiao.

"I feel like I've gained a lot, especially working with Jiuxiao, it's been very smooth." Raiden Mei said with a smile.

"Lord Savior felt very good today, it's a pity that Aibo couldn't be there to watch my wonderful performance. By the way, Aibo, who are these people?" asked Jiuxiao of Penglai Temple.

"Let me introduce you to Alexandra, another member of my team. She's good at hacking and intelligence processing. You'll be dealing with her often in the future. And Bronya, you've met her before. Also, she's Alexandra's daughter who she finally found." Wang Chen briefly introduced the relationship between the two.

"Eh? Ms. Alexandra is already a mother? She still looks very young?" Raiden Mei said in surprise.

"That Bronya is actually the daughter of a member of the Aibo team. Wow, what a wonderful development. Why don't you explain it? Aibo?" Penglai Temple Jiuxiao asked curiously.

"If you want to explain, it would be more appropriate for the person himself to explain." Wang Chen said that this was someone else's family affair, and it would be better for outsiders like him not to butt in on it. Jiuxiao from Penglai Temple also nodded tactfully and did not continue to ask questions.

And Bronya really couldn't accept the fact that she had a new biological mother for the time being. Although Bronya gave her a clearly different feeling and she was not averse to getting along with her, the two still needed some time to ease their relationship.

"The two of them will be responsible for future intelligence work. Your daily contacts will also be arranged and encrypted by them to avoid being spied on by others." Wang Chen said.

"Thank you for your care, everyone." [Bronya] bowed slightly and said.

"Then... whose child is that cute kid lying on the sofa...can it be Mr. Wang Chen and sister [Kiana]'s?" Then, Raiden Mei noticed Theresa on the sofa. Kiana had been calling Wang Chen brother-in-law before, so Raiden Mei thought that Wang Chen and [Kiana] had been married for many years, so that petite and cute white-haired girl couldn't be...

"What?" No matter how badly Theresa acted, she would immediately stand up if someone questioned her authority. She came running over with her short legs and said angrily, "I'm not [Kiana's] daughter, I'm [Kiana's] aunt."

"Ah...Aunt? Is it because of the generation relationship in the family? Sister [Kiana], you still have such a young aunt." However, Raiden Mei still treats Theresa as a child, and even wants to pinch this cute little face. After all, Theresa's appearance is indeed very healing to Raiden Mei who likes children.

"Mmmm! Don't pinch my face! I'm not a child! Captain Wang Chen, why are you still staring at me? Say something!" Well, Mei Raiden finally couldn't help but pinch her. Theresa has lost her dignity three times today, three times, three times.

"Okay, Mei, she is really Kiana's elder, and she is much older than everyone here. She is also my current boss, the head of the Far East Branch of the Destiny, the principal of St. Freya Academy, the most majestic Ms. Theresa." Wang Chen said, holding back his laughter.

"Eh?" Raiden Mei stopped the urge to continue pinching her face. Obviously intimidated by these titles, Theresa can finally regain her dignity... right?

"Really, Mr. Wang Chen, please don't make such jokes. It's not good to spoil children too much." Unfortunately, Raiden Mei didn't believe it and continued to ravage Theresa's face.

"Oooooh! Stop rubbing me!"

Wang Chen also found this scene funny. "Ms. Theresa, you are not an elder at all. First, Kiana mistook you for an aunt, and now Raiden Mei firmly believes you are a child. It's too miserable, Theresa."

Today is also a day when Theresa loses all her dignity~

Chapter 68: The Establishment of the Phantom Thieves

After being persuaded by Kiana and Bronya, Mei Raiden finally believed that the person she had ravaged with her bare hands was such a great person. Mei Raiden blushed and bowed to apologize. However, Theresa was in a low mood at the moment. She squatted in the corner like a child who could not be coaxed no matter how hard she tried, holding her head and squatting in a closed mood.

Obviously, Mei Raiden's evil action dealt a heavy blow to Theresa's heart.

Wang Chen naturally ignored Theresa's depressed mood. He and Mei entered the kitchen to prepare a big meal to reward everyone who had worked hard all day. He had drawn many Mond recipes and ingredients in the previous non-qi card draw, so he took them out to reward everyone.

Originally, Mei Raiden also wanted to join in, to help Wang Chen and Mei, and to continue learning cooking. However, Wang Chen said that Mei Raiden had been busy all day and had consumed a lot of physical strength and energy, so he asked her to have a good rest and chat with everyone happily. Therefore, Mei Raiden had to give up.

So everyone started chatting about their experiences today. Mei and her friends started by talking about their experiences. Although it was just ordinary training and taking on commissions to defeat Honkai beasts, they also gained a lot. They also informed everyone that Rin was safe and sound, and that the shrine on the mountain had been repaired.

Then, Kiana shared her own experiences, which were extremely exciting, such as the emergency passage train, the large-scale family recognition session, the appearance of Bishop Otto, the biggest boss of destiny, and the meeting against Cocolia...

Everyone's blood boiled after hearing this, especially Jiuxiao from Penglai Temple. Her eyes seemed to be sparkling. She was writing furiously in her diary with a pen in hand. She had no time to interrupt and just wanted to devote all her time to the record book. She also made some strange noises of "Hehe, haha, eh" from time to time.

Everyone has become accustomed to Jiuxiao's illness in Penglai Temple.

"So, we will become the captain's new team, specifically responsible for dealing with the wealthy capitalists in the south city?" asked Raiden Mei.

"That's right. Captain Wang Chen and I decided to call it the Phantom Thief Team. We plan to conceal our true identities and goals in the form of a Phantom Thief Group, and then attack those wealthy businessmen." [Bronya] said with a smile.

"Hey, the Phantom Thieves! Count me in, count me in!" With a swipe, Jiuxiao of Penglai Temple jumped up very quickly. As a person from the Far East, how could he not admire the Phantom Thieves, the most common gang organization in boys' comics, he said quickly.

So [Bronya] pulled the remaining Mei Raiden, Kiana, Kyushu Houraiji, and Bronya who was silent beside them into the Phantom Thieves contact group.

"Hey, who is this Joker? I also wanted to use this name." After joining the group, Jiuxiao from Penglai Temple looked at the code names of each group member, and then saw a person named Joker. He felt a little disappointed that the name he had finally thought of was taken away.

"Of course it's the captain. Who else can be the Joker besides him?" said [Bronya].

"Ah, it's aibo. That's okay. I think so too." However, after hearing that Wang Chen was Joker, Penglai Temple Jiuxiao became happy instead, and then began to think of a new name.

"Big Silver Wolf?" Bronya frowned, then looked at [Bronya] next to her. There was no doubt that the Big Silver Wolf was [Bronya]. There was no other way, and she didn't care that much about the name, so she changed the name to her common English name Silver Wolf.

"Neko...is that older sister? Ah, I kind of want this name too." Kiana said after seeing it.

"Didn't you tell your sister before that you like the title of Sky Ranger that Jiuxiao gave you? How about calling you Ranger?" Kiana said with a smile.

"Crimson, this is Sister Crimson's code name, simple and easy to understand... Then I'll also give it a simple one, let's call it Raiden." Raiden Mei also quickly thought of her own code name and said.

"Mei is really straightforward, but Mei, aren't you afraid that Cocolia will notice something wrong with your name?" Kiana asked.

"Don't worry, the code name Raiden is still a very common nickname for young people in the Far East. Too many people use it. And if you use this code name on purpose, Cocolia might not associate it with it." Mei shook her head and said with a smile.

"I've thought of it! Let's call it The Savior of rays of light! Ah! The English name is too long and exceeds the character limit!" I finally searched for the English name of Savior of rays of light, but it was banned because it was too long.

"Stupid Jiuxiao, who's going to read such a long name for you? Just listen to me and call it: Hikari." At this time, Wang Chen brought out two plates of fried meat with carrots in honey sauce, and heard Jiuxiao's shouting from Penglai Temple, and complained.

"Hikari? Hikari? Aibo you are really a naming genius! Okay, from today on, I, Houraiji Kyushu will be the Phantom Thief Hikari!" Houraiji Kyushu happily entered his own name.

"Okay, the dishes will be served soon. Sit on the chairs quietly. Don't overturn the table." Wang Chen placed all the dishes on the table, said, then turned and went into the kitchen to continue serving other dishes.

"So, our Phantom Thief Team is established like this?" Kiana asked curiously.
