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

So they contacted like-minded friends from various player factions and organized a meeting.

The meeting was held inside the Ba Huan Building.

And today, all the people who came to participate in this private meeting have arrived.

Chapter 391 Mammon's Movements

In a small meeting room hidden behind a secret door, cool-toned lighting illuminated a cold, round table.

A row of black chairs was neatly arranged around a long table, where six people were seated, each representing one of the five factions behind them.

The person sitting at the head of the conference table was a middle-aged man with a rather gentle expression. He was one of the senior members of the Tongji Association and was in charge of presiding over this cooperation meeting.

To the left of the main seat sat a young man wearing gold-rimmed glasses, who looked to be around twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old. His expression was indifferent, and his eyes held a hint of arrogance. He was a C-level player sent by the "Inner Alliance" to participate in this meeting.

"Li Alliance" is a player organization built on capital, with its core members being some of the wealthiest people in China, including business families, capital groups, and so on.

They used their vast wealth to pave the way, secretly gathering a large number of players together to form a massive organization.

Essentially, they are a group of businessmen, and players are their weapons.

For Fan Xiao and his ilk, who had control over the supply of fantasy materials, the allure was beyond description—it was beyond "huge."

Therefore, they actively sent people to participate in this meeting.

On the right side of the long table sat a white man and a white woman who had come from the United States. The woman had long brown hair. Both of them were members of the "Sword of God".

If Fan Xiao were present, he would recognize these two as his "old acquaintances".

During the Wa City incident, it was the two of them who led the team to guard Song Qingshan and lured Fan Xiao into the trap.

During the ensuing conflict, the two took advantage of the chaos in the fighting and fled Wa City immediately.

Among them, the brown-haired woman's name is Kara, and she possesses the C-level psychic power "The Book of Akasha".

She had already learned about some of Fan Xiao's strength through the "Book of Akasha," and a seed of fear had been planted in her heart when she was in Wa City—at that time, she was the first one in the player team from the White Eagle Kingdom to run away.

She sent her subordinates to their deaths, buying herself time to escape from Fan Xiao.

As for why she dared to come and cause trouble again this time...

After the Wa City incident, she consulted the "Book of Akasha" to learn about Fan Xiao's personality and found out that he was petty and vindictive.

She then looked up the fates of those in Division 010 who had been enemies of Fan Xiao in the past, and found the answer was "almost all of them were wiped out".

This terrified her!

This Fan Xiao... will probably come to take revenge on her sooner or later.

At that point, her only way to survive will probably be to escape from Zone 010 and never come back.

She was naturally unwilling to leave her home and suffer in another region. Moreover, she had a high status in the White Eagle Kingdom, had endless money at home, kept a large number of male lovers, was a bride every night, and held orgies every week. How could she give up such a heavenly life so easily?

She can't bear it!

Therefore, Fan Xiao must die.

Just then, realizing that he couldn't win over Van Chau, "God's Sword" also made the decision to kill him.

Since we can't get a source of goods, let's just destroy it. We can't let other countries develop faster than us.

Fan Xiao has become an obstacle for the White Eagle Nation.

With multiple forces converging and a large number of players gathering, now is a perfect opportunity to eliminate Fan Xiao.

So she volunteered to come and participate in this meeting.

She would keep a close eye on the entire process, and if the operation failed... she would immediately flee to another region and never return.

Of course, she wouldn't reveal her true purpose of killing Fan Xiao at the meeting.

The forces represented by those present were more interested in coercing Fan Xiao to hand over resources; murder was not within their considerations.

Only the Europa Union and the island nation's "Psychic Society" stand on their side, the "Sword of God".

Thinking of this, Kara glanced to her left.

The person sent by the "Europa Alliance" was also a woman, who only revealed her game nickname—Victoria's Secret Angel—when introducing herself.

The island nation's "Psychic Society" sent a slightly short, balding middle-aged man with a gloomy look in his eyes.

This is the full lineup of forces in the conference room right now—the Fellowship, the Underworld Alliance, the Sword of God, the Europa Alliance, and the Psionic Society.

"Eugene, has that mysterious figure you mentioned arrived yet?"

At this moment, the young man wearing gold-rimmed glasses, representing the "Li Alliance" organization, looked at the high-ranking members of the Tongji Association sitting at the head of the long table and said with a slightly impatient tone, "What qualifications does the other party have to make so many of us wait for him? Also, you contacted us to come here, so you must have already drafted a relevant plan. Can you start talking now?"

Just as Eugene, the middle-aged man with a slightly mild expression, was about to reply, the hidden door to the conference room suddenly opened.

Outside the door, security guards in plain clothes escorted in an ordinary-looking young man.

“You’ve finally arrived,” Eugene nodded to the newcomer who was approaching the conference table, and said, “Everyone’s here, let’s begin. By the way…”

He introduced the newest guest to the crowd, saying, "He represents the Special Affairs Bureau."

Upon hearing this, everyone present showed surprise.

The larger a force is, the easier it is to be infiltrated.

The fact that a member of the Freemasons had infiltrated the Special Affairs Bureau, or that the Freemasons had bribed a member of the Special Affairs Bureau—wouldn't surprise them, at most give them a slight shock.

Because the organization behind them also has spies and informants planted in the Special Affairs Bureau.

The reverse is also true, so there's nothing surprising about it.

But Eugene's words were: This new man represents the Special Affairs Bureau.

This is somewhat intriguing.

Why would someone who represents the Special Affairs Bureau come and scheme against Van Shaw with them?

Enough support?

Destroy the Great Wall?

"You really have brought in an unexpected helper."

The young man with the gold-rimmed glasses glanced at Eugene and commented.

All eyes were on this special affairs bureau member, and everyone wanted to remember his unremarkable appearance.

We might be able to use this meeting as leverage to threaten this guy later.

Of course, this was just a subconscious action on their part.

None of the people present showed their true faces—backed by a powerful force, they naturally had no shortage of tools to disguise their appearance.

Memorizing appearances isn't very meaningful.

"I would like to know the reasons why the members of the Special Affairs Bureau attended this meeting."

At that moment, Kara, who represented the "Sword of God," suddenly said something.

Her tone was very firm, with a domineering feel that left no room for maneuver.

If Eugene doesn't respond, the meeting will likely end there.

“Precious resources are naturally more secure when they are in our own hands.”

The unremarkable-looking young man said, "Even sharing is better than having it all to yourself by someone who is stubborn and unreasonable."

"If it's all controlled by one person, and something happens to that person, it means the whole system collapses. Being a player is a dangerous profession. Who can be sure whether tomorrow or an accident will come first?"

"There are many different voices within the Special Affairs Bureau, you understand?"

He lied here.

The special affairs bureau faction behind him only wanted to use someone else to put Fan Xiao under pressure, and then help him in his desperate situation, taking the opportunity to negotiate the terms for transferring resources.

Yes, they wanted to use someone else to do their dirty work.

As for sharing the sourcing channels?

Haha, how is that possible?

Of course, he wouldn't reveal his true purpose at all during the meeting.

"You guys are ruthless, crossing the river and then burning the bridge with such ease."

The bespectacled young man spoke with a slightly sarcastic tone.

Since the face he's wearing now isn't the original one, he won't be careful what he says after disguising his identity, even when facing players from official organizations.

"Alright, let's get down to business."

Eugene stepped in to stop the irrelevant conversation and got down to business, saying, "Our plan to leverage the situation has failed, as you have all seen. If we don't take some drastic measures now, we probably won't be able to get that supply route."

“The radical methods are nothing more than capturing Fan Xiao and controlling him with mental artifacts, or using his family to blackmail him,” the bespectacled youth asked. “Both of these methods are difficult to implement.”

"That's why we need to hold this meeting to facilitate our cooperation. Fan Xiao is very strong, but if the six of us join forces, it shouldn't be a problem to take him down as a single individual."

Eugene said, "The Freemasons have prepared mental interference tools and intend to implement both plans simultaneously."

"We will arrest Fan Xiao and his family members at the same time. Whichever side succeeds, we will achieve our goal."

"Of course, it would be safest to succeed on both sides."

"The plan itself is fine, but its implementation will be very difficult."

At this moment, Kara spoke up: "If we're going to make the arrest, our enemies won't just be Fan Xiao; there are others too..."

At this point, she glanced at the Special Affairs Bureau member who was participating in the meeting.

Others also looked over.

Facing the gazes of the crowd, the unremarkable-looking man spoke up and assured them, "We will take care of any obstacles from the Special Affairs Bureau."

“Fan Xiao returned home last night and has stayed home ever since, without going out.”

"We will issue an order with Level 1 clearance, instructing the Special Affairs Bureau members protecting the Fan Xiao family to temporarily abandon their mission and perform other tasks. However..."

He paused, then reminded them, "As you all know, Fan Xiao is highly valued by the Special Affairs Bureau. Once we divert our security forces, the Bureau will likely react immediately and take swift countermeasures to salvage the situation."

“We’re not the only ones with Level 1 authority; the security forces will likely be back in place soon.”

“Because of this accident, the General Administration will be more vigilant and attentive, and there is a high probability that they will temporarily send more personnel. So your unimpeded activity time... will only be about 10 minutes.”

"In player-versus-player battles, items are like playing cards; once they're all used up, the outcome is basically decided."

The bespectacled young man said, "Ten minutes is enough. If it can't be done in more than ten minutes, there's no point in continuing."

"Let's leave it at that for now."

Eugene nodded and said, "The Kiwanis will share all the intelligence they have about Fan Xiao, so that we can gain the upper hand in battle."

"I hope you won't be stingy with your intelligence in this matter. Only with detailed information can we make the necessary preparations in advance."

"no problem."

Kara nodded.

She couldn't be happier!

After all, their goal was to kill Fan Xiao, not to control him.

As for why she didn't take control measures... she had already found the answer through the psionic "Book of Akasha"—Vanshaw cannot be controlled by items of the psychic attribute.

Unless you're using an S-rank item.

Although she was very skeptical about whether Fan Xiao really possessed such an outrageous mental defense, the psychic powers provided an objective answer, so she could only suppress her subjective doubts and choose to believe.

However, there's no need to reveal this to the Kiwanis Association or other partner organizations.

This would easily lead them to abandon directly targeting Fan Xiao and shift their focus to "capturing Fan Xiao's family to blackmail him."

If such a situation were to actually occur, it would be very detrimental to the purpose of the Sword of God.

Next, the group began exchanging information.

Kara generously shared the "Fanshaw Strategy" that she had obtained through psychic powers with everyone.

The exchange of intelligence continued until 3 p.m.

At the end of the meeting, Eugene set the time for the arrest operation—two days later.

After the meeting ended, everyone left the small conference room behind the hidden door and dispersed to begin the work of recruiting and forming teams.
