Lucky billion players, you've never seen one before / I can accumulate my own luck

"Yes, I have thought about that, but..."

Fan Xiao said, "We can't do this ourselves."

"Why?" Yan Keke asked curiously.

“There are many traitors in Mammon, so you can’t just offer a bounty for information involving sensitive data.”

Fan Xiao explained the sentence very vividly.

Mammon is a mixed bag; even top players from the Living Tribunal are just casual members. Information security is probably a complete mess...

Well, that was his guess.

He wasn't sure if Mammon's trading platform had implemented any identity security measures.

If not... then there are probably quite a few traitors in Mammon's ranks.

Perhaps some members of "One Wing" are infiltrated by Mammon.

He went directly to offer a reward for the information, and if it happened to be seen by someone from "One Wing"...

Firstly, this would alert the enemy.

Secondly, although this is a form of fishing to some extent, what if you catch a shark... In short, it's not worth taking that risk.

Fan Xiao decided to use a different approach.

"It's definitely not enough for me to ask in my own name. I need someone else to ask for me, and this person has to be the kind who isn't afraid of going through the trouble and won't betray me..."

"Tina-sensei! I've chosen you!"

Fan Xiao had already devised a plan in his mind.

With such a huge commotion he's caused this time, once the subsequent social impact develops, he should have no problem passing the life court's assessment.

Moreover, the results were the kind that Tina was very satisfied with.

Once Tina is satisfied, he can make a small request, and his dear teacher will surely not refuse him.

"Traitor... Teacher Otter said that 'traitor' is another name for a turncoat or traitor. How can such a powerful organization as Mammon be so chaotic inside..."

Yan Keke was somewhat surprised.

However, she quickly stopped caring about things that didn't concern her.

She continued, asking Fan Xiao, "Brother Fan, the information about the Bird Angel Medal mentioned paying attention to the assembly notice. Should we go check it out next time 'One-Wing' assembles?"

"It depends."

Fan Xiao replied, "From the description of this item, we can see that 'One Wing' is an organization with super players. Even if their influence in the G08 node is not strong, their scale and size are still there. The players who participate in the gathering are probably not weak either, and they are all mental-type psionicists."

“When we were weak, trying to break into these kinds of gatherings was basically like sending ourselves to our deaths; it was pointless.”

"If the next meeting time isn't far off, then let's give up. If there's still a long time, then we can consider it, but as for the specifics... it depends on my player level."

"Yes, we need to hurry up and level up. Brother Fan, level up the players, and we'll level up the dungeons."

Yan Keke nodded: "I hope Fairy Tale Town can open more often, so we can improve our performance and level up faster with the help of the Evolution Game. Then we can...we can help Brother Fan even better."

"Upgrading the dungeon..."

Fan Xiao murmured something, then took out the B-grade item "Nana's Suitcase".

It's called a suitcase, but it's actually just a small, box-shaped pendant.

The pendant, which can be completely held in one hand, contains 1 cubic meters of space and a whole train car full of fantastical substances.

The latter is more important.

Fan Xiao fiddled with the pendant on the box, his expression somewhat hesitant.

Yan Keke noticed his unusual behavior and asked, "What's wrong, Brother Fan?"

"This is a spatial artifact, containing a whole carriage full of fantasy matter, the same amount as last time."

Fan Xiao said, "If you absorb all of this stock, the dungeon's upgrade progress will definitely increase significantly, and it'll probably be close to a C-rank dungeon. However..."

He shook his head and sighed softly, "The buyer of this shipment is waiting to use it to establish a new safe zone and save a large number of people affected by the random dungeon. Without this shipment, I estimate that many people will die."

Human nature can be so complex at times.

The last time he robbed the fantasy substance on the time-travel train, he didn't feel guilty because he didn't know who the buyer was, and he used it immediately after he robbed it.

Coincidentally, Lu Baizhi had gone with him last time.

From a luck perspective, the last buyer was probably not a good person—because that fits his mindset perfectly.

It sounds like a given, but luck is just that mysterious.

However, this time the situation was different—he knew for certain that the buyer of this batch of goods was the Guangyao Club of Division 004.

The Radiant Society is a righteous organization dedicated to protecting the ordinary people of Zone 004 from cannibalistic players and aspiring to reclaim the world and restore it to a civilized state.

He felt a bit uneasy holding the goods purchased by this organization, and he wouldn't feel at ease using them.

Chapter 279 Yan Keke...Loli?

Should he return it or keep it for himself...? After a moment's thought, Fan Xiao put the box pendant back into his storage space and then chose an old method to make a decision—flipping a coin.

When you're unsure about something, you might as well leave the decision to fate.

Of course, for him right now, this is a way of making a decision through "self-deception." Because he had just used up a little over a month's worth of luck to make a wish, he was currently under a lot of good fortune.

The result of his coin toss will surely correspond to his deepest desires.

A coin is like a mirror, reflecting one's true nature.

Follow your heart – this may not yield the most favorable outcome, but it will definitely ensure you make a decision you won't regret.

*Thud*—He casually tossed the Bird Angel Medal up, and after it landed, he covered it with his hand.

After removing my right hand, the result was... the side with the one-winged angel printed on it was facing up.

This means he should return this batch of fantasy materials to the Radiant Society.

Fan Xiao's hesitation and inner turmoil dissipated, and a smile appeared on his face: "It seems that we are destined to be apart this time."

"Is Brother Fan talking about fantasy matter?"

After seeing Fan Xiao's actions, Yan Keke roughly guessed what was going on. She suggested, "Well... I also think that since it was something someone else used to save people, returning it to its rightful owner is the best option."

"However, if Brother Fan wants me to absorb it, I... I will listen to Brother Fan."

Would I force you?

Fan Xiao ruffled the girl's hair and said with a smile, "Don't worry, I will return this batch of goods to the Guangyao Society. At the same time, it will not only return the goods to their rightful owner, but also make them owe a favor, and a big one at that."

"You never know when favors might come in handy, so you can never have too many."

He didn't really care about personal relationships; the coin had already given him the result he most desired, so there was no need to deliberately pursue anything extra.

However, in order to avoid making Yan Keke feel guilty—this sensitive girl is prone to blaming herself for mistakes, for example, she might think that returning the goods to their rightful owner is taking care of her feelings—in short, mentioning human factors can reduce Yan Keke's psychological burden... Raising a child is really not easy.

"Human relationships..."

Sure enough, Yan Keke's thinking was swayed, and she nodded and said, "Teacher Sea Otter said that the Radiant Society is a large force in Division 004. The connections of a player organization of this size must be very useful."

"By the way, Brother Fan, how do we deliver the goods?"

She asked with a curious expression, "Will you put it in a spatial artifact and then take it to Division 004 on a time-space train?"

"Why don't they do this when they deliver goods? Wouldn't that be more discreet?"

"I've also wondered about this, but due to a lack of information, I can only make a rough inference..."

Fan Xiao then shared his speculations.

Fantasy matter possesses certain properties that interfere with spacetime, which is one of the reasons why it can be used as an auxiliary material for building safe zones.

Ordinary spatial items probably can't hold, nor can they hold, a whole carriage full of fantastical matter.

Conservatively speaking, it would require a Class B space-saving device to accomplish this.

Grade B spatial items... are extremely rare! They would probably be worth tens of millions of game coins if sold separately, and they would be priceless even if they were readily available.

After all, players' own storage space is too small. When storing replacement spare items, they have to choose small ones, let alone store other necessary supplies.

In this situation, spatial props, as expansion containers, become especially valuable.

If a player carrying a spatial item is killed by another player, both the item and the cargo may be directly swallowed by the evolution game.

When a player dies, all their equipped items and stored items will be recycled by the game. Even if a player kills another player, the player can only inherit one item randomly – this is the rule of the Evolution game.

In other words, any unexpected event would result in a huge loss.

Compared to players using spatial items to secretly transport goods, using the time train at least eliminates the risk of the goods being swallowed up.

"The recipient can use spatial artifacts to store the fantasy matter, but they can't do that when delivering it."

Fan Xiao said, "If the goods are stolen by players, there's a chance to get them back. But if the game swallows them up... then you can only accept your bad luck."

"The risk is indeed very high."

Yan Keke understood and exclaimed with admiration, "Brother Fan is so lucky! He managed to get a space item containing cargo from the six items equipped by a B-level player... How amazing!"

"Think about happy things every day, and your luck will improve."

Fan Xiao casually fooled Yan Keke.

"Really?" Yan Keke asked doubtfully.

“Of course,” Van Shaw said, “I’ll prove it to you.”

He tossed the bird-angel medal in the air and murmured, "Angel."

Snap—the coin landed in his palm, the side facing up showing a one-winged angel.

Under Yan Keke's surprised gaze, Fan Xiao tossed a coin again and uttered the word "angel".

After the coin was dropped, the result was the same as before.

He then tossed it four or five more times, each time tossing it to the angel side.

Yan Keke's eyes were already somewhat vacant.

Fan Xiao patted the little girl's head and smiled, "Think about happy things more often, and you'll be just like me."

"Uh-huh."

Yan Keke nodded with a mixture of envy and seriousness.

Then, she suddenly remembered something and quickly asked, "Brother Fan, what should we do with those people?"

Fan Xiao knew the little girl was referring to the "desserts" at the banquet.

After they were brought to Fairy Tale Town, they were placed in an area behind the castle.

Let them live in Fairy Tale Town like this... Fan Xiao immediately ruled out this option.

The creatures living in Fairy Tale Town are either spiritual beings or illusory beings. They don't need to eat physically. They usually just eat some illusory food to satisfy their cravings... or rather, their "feelings." They are very easy to raise.

If he were to keep these people, he would have to redesign the instance and take care of their physical needs, such as food, drink, and toileting.

Too much trouble!

"Letting them out through the normal entrance...that probably won't work."

Yan Keke seemed to have considered many things, and proactively reminded Fan Xiao, "Outside is Zone 010, which is your hometown, Brother Fan. They are all from Xingyi City. What if they are recognized by other players and exposed, and the news gets back to Xingyi City..."

"That possibility is very small, but... you're right, from the perspective of eliminating potential risks, we really can't let them go to the 010 zone."

Fan Xiao didn't show any distress on his face. Instead, he smiled and said, "Don't worry, Coco, I have a solution for this. It just takes a few days."

"Let's not talk about that now. We've been away from Division 010 for so long, we need to go back and take a look. Perfect timing..."

He held up a red rope, about the thickness of a toothpick, in his hand: "We can go back and test the effect of this new prop."

"New props..."

Yan Keke looked at the red rope and asked curiously, "Is this... a B-grade item that Brother Fan obtained?"

Only items inherited from B-level players could elicit such an eager expression from Brother Fan.

“Hmm, an interesting prop,” Fan Xiao said. “Its effect on its own isn’t very strong, but if it’s combined with the props I already have… it’s hard to say right now, we’ll have to try it out first.”

Grade B item: Tailor Master.
