"Watch your form of address! How many times have I told you, use your title during the day," Charlotte sternly admonished.
"Oh... Your Majesty, something absolutely incredible has happened to me!" Melissa's voice still couldn't hide her excitement: "Yes! Absolutely incredible!"
"whats the matter?"
Melissa rarely lost her composure like this, but Charlotte's curiosity was piqued by her reaction.
“I can’t say the specifics directly because there’s still something I haven’t dealt with, so I can’t reveal any information for now. So…” Melissa invited eagerly, “Your Majesty, please come to Division 010! I guarantee you won’t regret it after you come… no, I should say, Your Majesty, if you don’t come, you will definitely regret not making a decision sooner!”
"...What exactly is going on? Why is it so mysterious?" Charlotte asked again.
“Your Highness, I really can’t say it directly! Once Your Highness arrives and investigates on-site, you’ll understand. However… I can give Your Highness a heads-up.”
After suppressing her excitement, Melissa said, "Your Highness, the decision you made back then was absolutely right! Absolutely right! I was completely captivated!"
"...What does this mean?"
"Oh, the idiom I just learned."
Melissa reminded her again, "In short, Your Highness, please come over quickly. You can put aside whatever you're doing for now, because nothing is more important than coming to me!"
After giving her a few more instructions, Melissa finally hung up the live view call.
Charlotte's emotions, however, remained unsettled for a long time.
Although Melissa can be a bit unreliable at times, such as being prone to making mistakes at crucial moments, most of the time, her eldest daughter is very rational and reliable.
Such excitement is truly rare!
Judging from his tone just now... Could something major have happened in the 010 partition that could overturn the G08 node?
Charlotte thought about it and finally decided to go and take a look.
Being the Queen is part of her job; as an A-level player, she naturally wouldn't focus all her energy on the Queen's duties.
Charlotte knew her daughter well; the other woman was so eager for her to go... probably because if she went early, she could gain some advantage.
Now... only about a month has passed, and Melissa seems to have completely sided with Van Shaw and is speaking up for him.
This made her, as the MD, feel somewhat complicated.
"Your Majesty, we have distinguished guests."
Just then, the voice of the personal maid came from outside the palace.
Charlotte ushered the maid into her office and inquired, "Distinguished guest? What is your identity?"
"They are four people from the game company. As for their identities... they haven't revealed them yet. They only said that the government representative in charge of the 001 district would meet with them."
The maid replied to Charlotte, "Since it involves a game company, we dare not be negligent. Your Majesty, who do you think would be suitable to entertain them?"
"A game company..."
Charlotte suddenly paused.
The first thing that came to her mind was what Fan Xiao had said to her.
Fan Xiao mentioned that in about one to two months, a powerful figure from a game company would visit node G08. They might contact the game government of partition 001, or they might not. If they did contact them... she would have the person in charge of receiving them relay a message to the visitor—go to partition 010, and you will see the person you want to see.
The timing... matches up.
I never expected it to actually come true!
Charlotte sensed an impending danger.
After a moment's thought, she instructed the maid, "Tell the others that I will handle this personally, and that they don't need to worry about it."
"Yes."
The maid respectfully withdrew.
Charlotte then activated her spatial teleportation artifact and instantly arrived at the reception room used to entertain VIPs.
As the maid had said, there were four guests in the luxuriously decorated reception room.
Three men and one woman.
Two of them were sitting, while the other two were standing, making their social status immediately apparent—if they weren't so bored as to act.
The two people sitting there, one of whom was over two meters tall, had a fierce face, short hair, and muscles that could only be described as enormous, terrifying, and ferocious, making him look like a small giant. The long sofa beneath him looked somewhat crowded and tiny.
This burly man wore a one-piece suit of clothing inlaid with jet-black armor, and his massive body contained a terrifying physical strength that seemed to be visible to the naked eye.
Just one glance is enough to give you a suffocating sense of oppression that makes it hard to breathe.
The moment Charlotte's eyes fell on the giant man, she instinctively felt a chill run down her spine and a strong urge to flee the reception room immediately.
What...what kind of monster is this?!
She's an active A-level player!
They are even among the stronger ones.
And now, she only glanced at the other person and was so terrified that she wanted to run away immediately... What a joke!
Charlotte's petite body tensed instantly, and she subconsciously went into a state of readiness.
Fortunately, the giant only glanced at her and then ignored her, seemingly having no interest in her whatsoever—although his eyes were filled with a chilling indifference to life, as if he were looking at an insignificant ant.
Charlotte breathed a sigh of relief and turned her gaze to another seated guest—a young man who appeared to be in his early twenties, with shoulder-length brown hair combed back, a chiseled face, handsome features, and a noble air. He wore a light-colored suit that blended elegance with a touch of flamboyance, his bow tie was perfectly tied, and he carried an exquisite cane.
She exudes elegance.
The two standing guests were standing behind the young man—one dressed in a maid's outfit, with a voluptuous figure and hideous tattoos on her exposed skin and face; the other was dressed in official attire, appeared to be the oldest, and had an elegant mustache.
The young man, accompanied by a maid and butler, seemed to be in charge… Just as Charlotte was about to ask a question, the young man suddenly looked at the giant beside him and said with a slightly displeased tone, “Jiang Er, tone down your murderous aura. What, you’re already in battle mode before we’ve even found the person?”
"Some trash who isn't even a top player dares to make me take this seriously?"
The giant glanced at the young man, his tone revealing an air of utter disdain: "Weisman, your level of laxity along the way has gone a bit too far. Bringing a maid and a butler, and now you're coming to this crappy section to see some damn queen... What could an A-level player like her possibly know? My time is precious! I don't have that much for you to waste."
"Jiang Er Lister! Watch your tone!"
The maid behind the young man suddenly stepped forward and reprimanded him, "What Lord Weisman wants to do and where he wants to go is not for someone of your lowly status to judge! You'd better remember that."
Upon hearing this, the giant named Jiang Er Lister gave the tattooed maid a rather strange look, then turned to the young man and asked, "Are all the standard players trained by game companies like her? She's just trash, yet she dares to be so insolent in front of me... Isn't she afraid of dying?"
No wonder he asked this question.
He's a well-established and highly skilled gamer!
On the other side, they also knew his identity.
Under such circumstances, how dare a mere S-rank player act so arrogantly in front of him... Although there are many idiots among the standard players of game companies, isn't this just too stupid?
Soon, something even more unexpected happened to the giant Jiang Er—the young man Weisman gave him no way out, and his thoughts were exactly the same as the maid's.
They even thought he shouldn't have any opinions.
Whether she's afraid of death or not is none of your business. However, if you want to harm my people, then that's my concern.
The young man, Weissman, first gave the giant a warning before slowly saying to the maid, "Yuzu, you have no right to interrupt me when I'm speaking, understand?"
“It was I who overstepped my bounds, Lord Wiesman.”
The maid, Yuzu, replied casually, showing no remorse whatsoever.
She seemed to genuinely despise Jiang Er from the bottom of her heart, wantonly displaying her unwarranted arrogance.
Seeing this, the giant Jiang Er revealed an impatient look: "Enough! I don't have time to play this boring childish game with you."
“Wiesman, don’t think that just because you’re a member of the Glenndale family you can boss me around.”
"So what if I'm one of the Ten Noble Families? Your game company practically begged me to join them. Before my patience runs out... you'd better watch your attitude!"
"They're begging to win you over?"
Weissman looked at him as if he had heard the biggest joke in the world, his eyes filled with contempt: "How come I heard that you took the initiative to come to the company and then offered to sign a hundred-year contract in exchange for the company helping you get rid of the 'Absolute Justice's' pursuit?"
"Jiang Er Lister, should I remind you of your original identity again?"
"You, a mere cannibalistic player, dare to speak disrespectfully of the Glendale family? Who gave you such confidence?"
"..."
Jiang Er's eyes turned cold and dangerous.
Weissman remained unfazed, maintaining his haughty and elegant demeanor.
After a few tense seconds, Jiang Er was the first to conceal the sharpness in her eyes, seemingly giving in.
Wiesman was not surprised at all; on the contrary, he thought it was all perfectly natural.
No one dared to defy the game company.
The ten noble families secretly control everything within the game company.
As a member of the Glendale family, Wiesman never thought highly of Jiang Er.
Jiang Er Lister is a super player, and also a cannibalistic player, from node D01—yes, this guy is the super cannibalistic player who immediately abandoned his territory and ran away overnight as soon as he heard that there were Zoroastrian players active in his node.
This happened about 50 years ago.
For the past 50 years, Jiang Er Liszt has been living in hiding, afraid to return to his hometown.
After all, which super player who has committed countless evil deeds wouldn't be intimidated by "absolute justice"?
The opponent is not only a god-level player, but also the type who will fight to the death... No player who values their life is fearless.
"Now that you know your identity, stop complaining about the itinerary I arranged. Don't forget, besides monitoring the completion of the annihilation mission, my job this time also includes... assessing whether you have the potential for in-depth training."
Weissman said slowly and deliberately, "The divinity of a game company isn't so easy to take. Those who eat on their knees have to kneel gracefully."
"..."
Jiang Er did not reply.
He had made up his mind—after this mission was over, he would come to Division 001 and devour the Xilun royal family and everyone associated with them, so as to prevent any news that would damage his reputation from spreading.
Although he trusted that a mere A-level player wouldn't dare to gossip about him, there were idiots out there, not just among the game company's standard players. In such a vast game as Evolution, the diversity of humanity was quite complete.
To be on the safe side, it's naturally safer to kill them all.
As for why they aren't taking action now... the game government is, after all, a regional management force supported by the game company. With core personnel from the game company like Weissman present, taking action against the government's leader would be a loss of face for Weissman.
The members of the ten noble families all valued face highly.
As for killing Weisman... although this guy is slightly weaker than him, as a member of the Ten Nobles, his status is very noble, and he is not someone he can deal with at will.
He still needs to rely on the divinity provided by the game company to climb the next step of his path to godhood, and he cannot afford to have even the slightest conflict with the ten noble families.
Yes, even a player who cannibalizes others can embark on the path to godhood after advancing to the level of a super player.
The vast divinity can guide the vast concepts.
Human players, based on the concept of spiritual fusion, have the highest compatibility and the greatest potential for growth;
Demi-human players utilize the concept of gene fusion, possessing the highest degree of inheritance and capable of creating powerful races;
The cannibalistic player, on the other hand, uses the concept of physical fusion to obtain the highest raw power stats, becoming the most powerful ultimate individual creature.
Regardless of the type, immense divinity is essential.
There are only three ways to attain divinity—either join a superorganization, create a superorganization, or… become a dog of a game company.
The game company holds a transcendent position, cooperating with local forces at various nodes and in various integrated zones to build a game government.
Its philosophy is to guide and promote the evolution of all humankind from a transcendent position.
No superorganization has the same level of brand recognition as a game company.
Therefore... game companies can be said to control the most massive divinity across all time and space nodes.
It's so vast that it's luxurious enough to allow non-players to embark on the path to godhood.
Feng Siman is a non-player—a non-player whose evolution rate has reached 100% and who possesses A-level psionic energy.
Among the ten noble families, there are quite a few of this type, and Feng Siman is considered one of the most outstanding in this group. As a non-player, he has already made significant progress on the path to godhood, so his strength is comparable to that of a super player—even though he cannot use items that only players can use.
Only game companies can do something like this.
Otherwise, the evolution potions alone would be enough to stall any super organization—not because they couldn't produce them, but because the amount of potions required to raise the evolution rate of an "evolver who doesn't enter the game system" to 100% is unimaginable, making it completely cost-effective and a pure, huge loss-making investment.
Even if a super organization is willing to expend so much effort to cultivate such people, it is impossible to help them embark on the path to godhood after they succeed—because non-players cannot use items.
Without S-rank items as beacons to guide divinity, the path to godhood becomes mere wishful thinking.
Only game companies can achieve this without relying on S-level items, by directly guiding divinity through a spacetime orbit network of all time and space nodes, and filtering and purifying divinity using unique methods.
