After saying that, he walked towards the branch office building.

Fan Xiao is right about one thing—to do something, you need a way to obtain detailed intelligence.

Detailed information is not yet available.

There are quite a few people secretly involved in this scheme, both domestically and internationally, and it will take some time to thoroughly investigate it.

Even the Special Affairs Bureau didn't have detailed intelligence, so Fan Xiao must have been completely clueless and wouldn't have been able to do anything about it.

Du Ruo felt that she was probably worrying too much.

Chapter 375 Causal Enemy Search, Connecting to the Future, Are You Afraid?

"You lied to Du Ruo just now. What have you been planning to do lately?"

In the living room, which was decorated in a girly style, Lu Xining poured Fan Xiao a glass of water, handed it to him, and casually asked a question.

Fan Xiao glanced down at the cup on the coffee table but didn't reach for it.

With past examples already laid out, who knows if anything special has been added to the water, or what kind of reaction might occur after drinking it...

Fan Xiao answered the question directly: "It's better to plan ahead and nip problems in the bud. There's no such thing as being able to guard against thieves for a thousand days."

"To be more specific," Lu Xining asked, "is there anything I can do to help?"

"You're not suited to take action; just watch."

Fan Xiao sighed softly, "Possessing a treasure is a crime. The reason this happened is probably because I was too lucky. I went to Roman City and managed to secure a stable supply of fantasy materials. What could I do? I was desperate too."

"I see you're enjoying it."

Lu Xining complained.

She realized that Fan Xiao was fishing for opportunities, using this incident to his advantage and expose his true strength.

She simply doesn't yet know Fan Xiao's purpose in doing this.

Perhaps... this guy has an even bigger secret that will eventually be exposed to others and cause trouble.

So he started preparing in advance.

As long as someone has a fearsome reputation, others will have to think twice before making a move against them.

"You are surrounded by wolves, but you are not a sheep."

Lu Xining then asked, "Did you fail to establish your authority this time?"

"It's not exactly a failure. At least the enemy knows I'm not easy to deal with. Judging from the strength I've shown so far, they'll have to pay an extremely heavy price to take me down or eliminate me."

Fan Xiao said, "This idea is tricky; we need to carefully consider whether it's worth it before taking action."

"The plan to establish authority was successful, but things got out of control in the end."

"My importance in the eyes of others has probably increased several levels, to the point where I have to pay more attention to it."

He recounted in detail what had happened in Wa City.

This includes the rampage of the instance and possible future changes in the situation.

"If a dungeon has a problem, a city is wiped out... This is enough to completely change how governments around the world take dungeon crises."

Lu Baizhi, standing next to Fan Xiao, subtly revealed a worried expression: "I imagine that all the major powers will rush to create safe zones to ensure basic social stability, and fantasy materials will definitely become the most valuable resource."

"Therefore... those who control stable supply channels will become the cake in everyone's eyes."

"Any power with some strength would probably want a piece of the pie."

"What you're describing is only one scenario, and it can only be considered an ideal scenario."

At this moment, Lu Xining suddenly reminded her sister.

"Uh... ideal scenario?" Lu Baizhi asked subconsciously, "Is there anything worse possible?"

"Of course."

Lu Xining added, "There are other ways to compete besides improving yourself. Self-upgrading is difficult, but smearing your peers is easy."

"Or to put it another way, if you and your friend are both trying to escape from a tiger's jaws, you don't need to outrun the tiger; you just need to outrun your friend. If your friend is faster than you, you can break his legs first."

"If you approach this with this mindset... destroy what you can't have, so that no one else can have it either."

After saying that, she looked at Fan Xiao, frowned and said, "You're in danger lately... no, you're probably not afraid of danger, but you're mainly burdened by your family. That's your weakness, and you're easily targeted."

"My family can be used to threaten me, and so can yours."

Fan Xiao bluntly stated, "This matter is currently a whirlpool; once it starts spinning, it will drag many people into it."

"This kind of thing is very troublesome to deal with, unless you are completely ruthless, don't mind being a lone star, and abandon all your weaknesses."

“No normal person can do this, so…”

He smiled slightly and presented his plan: "If we can't solve the problem, we can eliminate the person who created it, preventing this vortex from spinning. To do this, we need a grand assassination operation."

"How to do it?"

Lu Xining pointed out the difficulty: "There are people both domestically and internationally who have plotted against you behind the scenes, and even the Special Affairs Bureau has not been able to find out the detailed list."

Even if the matter is investigated and dealt with, who can say for sure whether someone will try to scheme against you again in the future?

"I don't need to worry about getting the list. Whether it's people from the past, people now, people who are currently considering or will plot against me in the future, I will get my hands on everyone's list."

Fan Xiao said with considerable certainty.

This statement caused Lu Xining to show a rare look of surprise.

Lu Baizhi also looked over with an extremely curious expression.

What methods are used to obtain even future lists?

Isn’t this a bit too fantastical?

Meeting the gazes of the two sisters, Fan Xiao revealed a rather mysterious smile, opened his palm, and a medal appeared in his hand.

That's the Bird Angel Medal from the One-Winged Organization, one side featuring a one-winged angel and the other a broken-winged bird.

Because it looks like a coin, he used it as a lucky coin, replacing his old coins.

*Thud*—Fan Xiao tossed the medal up and let it land on the back of his hand, just like Lu Baizhi would do when she was certain of something by luck.

"The future is governed by cause and effect, and is therefore determined by cause and effect."

Fan Xiao said.

"Luck..." Lu Xining asked doubtfully, "Is it reliable?"

“I’ve never missed a beat. But obtaining such a massive list will probably take quite a while. So…”

Fan Xiao looked at Lu Baizhi: "I need your help, Zhizi."

"Ok!"

Lu Baizhi nodded emphatically.

Lu Xining continued to ask Fan Xiao, "After you get the list, are you going to handle it personally? One person's time and energy are limited, it might not be enough. Are you sure you don't need our help?"

"No, I won't make a move this time."

Fan Xiao shook his head and said, "An enemy is an individual, while an enemy is a huge force. The latter is obviously more frightening, so the assassination should be left to the latter."

"Fan Xiao, do you have powerful backers?" Lu Baizhi asked curiously. "Are you talking about the Special Affairs Bureau?"

“You overestimate the Special Affairs Bureau,” Lu Xining said bluntly. “Everyone is in the same division, and the strength difference between the major forces is not significant. They check and balance each other, so they certainly won’t make any big moves easily. To break this deadlock, we’ll probably have to rely on forces outside the division…”

At this point, she couldn't help but look puzzled: "I've never heard of you joining any player organization... Who's backing you?"

"The Court of Life"

Fan Xiao stated frankly.

So much time has passed, the "senior sister" sent by Teacher Tina should be making her appearance soon.

In other words, the Life Tribunal's branch at node G08 is about to be established, and its reputation is about to be established.

It's time for Lu Xining and Lu Baizhi to know some of his secrets.

They weren't assassins and couldn't become core members of the court, but they could serve as his personal assistants.

"The Court of Life..."

Lu Xining felt the name sounded familiar, frowned, and carefully searched her memory.

Soon, she remembered where this sense of familiarity came from.

A few months ago, the time-space train at node G08 was broadcasting a bounty—a bounty for the super player "Destroy the Country".

The broadcast mentioned that "Destroying the Nation" was a member of the Life Tribunal.

"You haven't encountered a 'nation being destroyed', have you?"

Lu Xining suddenly asked.

Before Fan Xiao could answer, she made a new guess after some thought: "Was the destruction of the country by Count Tina Christie of Roman City?"

"Very clever," Fan Xiao praised.

“I had some doubts about her identity before. A noble who suddenly rose to prominence, with an unknown origin, feared by all sides, she seemed like a high-level player who came from another node.”

Lu Xining said, "I never expected it would be the destruction of a country."

"She doesn't really like this name. If you run into her again, you'd better be careful how you address her."

Fan Xiao reminded her, "Calling her 'teacher' is the best option. She likes to hear it. She probably wants to use the respect in the title to make up for her inferiority complex caused by her petite size."

"..."

Lu Xining frowned and subconsciously glanced around a few times.

“Don’t worry,” Fan Xiao laughed, “the person left the G08 node a long time ago, so it’s fine to make a joke now and then.”

"Super players stand at the pinnacle of evolutionary games, and their methods are countless; we must be wary of them."

Lu Xining said cautiously.

Lu Baizhi suddenly asked, "Um... what's your relationship with Teacher Tina and Fan Xiao?"

"..." Fan Xiao: "Just like the way we address each other, it's a simple teacher-student relationship."

How could you possibly have such a dirty thought?

A domineering super gamer falls in love with me?

"Oh...so we've been in such close contact with super players?" Lu Baizhi asked curiously, "How strong is Teacher Tina? Have you met Fan Xiao?"

“No,” Fan Xiao said with a hint of regret, “There has never been anything at node G08 that required her intervention. The only time she did intervene was apparently when dealing with the arrest team sent by the game company. I didn’t go with her that time, so I missed the opportunity to observe.”

He was genuinely disappointed.

To this day, he still doesn't know just how strong the super player really is.

What level does the pinnacle of evolution games actually reach?

All he knew was that he had absolutely no way to escape when facing Tina.

This regret may take a long time to be made up for.

"So..." Lu Xining asked, "Tina will help you?"

"Her fee is too high; I can't afford it."

Fan Xiao shook his head: "But she sent me some help. Judging by the time, we should be approaching node G08 soon."

“In addition to the court’s helpers, I will also call in people from ‘Mammon’ to help. There will definitely be enough manpower, so you don’t need to worry about that. Just keep an eye on things.”

"Mammon...that infamous player organization?"

Lu Xining asked.

She had heard rumors about "Mammon" in Division 001, but she never expected that Fan Xiao would also know someone from there... Wait a minute!

"You didn't join 'Mammon' too, did you?"

“No one says a person can only join one player organization, right?” Fan Xiao’s smile seemed indifferent: “'Mammon' is a very useful platform. There’s no need to feel a sense of belonging. It’s an excellent tool.”

Actually, I'm half a member of the "One Wing" organization, even though I'm willing to be a traitor... He didn't say that out loud.

Otherwise, in other people's eyes, he would really become a traitor who served three masters.
