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

Ancheng.

At Lu Xining's home.

After settling their family in Lingjing City, Lu Xining and Lu Baizhi had to return to Ancheng due to their studies.

The appointed time has arrived.

The two completed the ritual and tore the paper into pieces.

at the same time.

Spirit City.

Song Qingshan found Song Yu and got straight to the point: "Xiao Yu, play a paper doll tearing game with me..."

"You're trying to fool me too? Get out of here..."

"I personally fully support your relationship with your older brother. As the saying goes, 'Don't let good things go to outsiders.' Don't worry, I'll help you..."

"Come play games with me! What are you waiting for?"

"..."

Special Affairs Bureau Headquarters.

Li Xian captured Mercury...

*Snap*—the paper shatters, a medium is created.

Fan Xiao's gaze fell upon him.

Five "doors" were opened simultaneously in five different locations.

Fan Xiao dispatched five lolis to the five entrances and exits. The scenes they saw were transmitted to Yan Keke in real time via mental connection. Then, Yan Keke, acting as a relay station, collected all the scenes and transmitted them back to the five lolis in real time.

Then, they each created illusions, projecting the received images in real time.

A meeting that spans multiple partitions was thus achieved through replication.

The saintess glanced around at Fan Xiao, Yu Xuezhao, Lu Xining, and the others before finally fixing her gaze on Fan Xiao, and said with a slight complaint, "Darling, could you change the incantation for your paper ritual?"

She was practically asking, "Are you suffering from chuunibyou (middle school syndrome)?"

"Let's change it after we've thought of a new one. These are minor issues." Fan Xiao got down to business and said, "The reason we called everyone here is to let all members introduce themselves and get to know each other. Also... to arrange matters related to the establishment of the branch and to confirm the name of the organization we'll be using as a cover."

"Yes, junior brother, you did very well."

Yu Xuezhao nodded with satisfaction and took the lead in responding to Fan Xiao, introducing herself.

The others followed one by one.

After the introductions, Yu Xuezhao said to Fan Xiao, "I've already killed five of the escaped players. There are four left, and I estimate that we can wipe them out in less than two weeks."

"Thank you for your hard work, senior sister."

After offering a word of comfort, Fan Xiao looked at the Holy Maiden and said, "We need to establish a base in reality. Division 001 is the most suitable location. Let's set it at the Rice Manor in Roman City. It's a property left by Teacher Tina. After the branch is officially established, we'll need to connect with the outside world... Holy Maiden, we might need your connections to help us with this."

"No problem, this is something I'm good at." The saintess nodded.

"Everyone has been busy lately and no one has been able to spare much time."

Fan Xiao continued, "So, we'll meet again in Roman City in a month, and then we'll officially finalize what needs to be done and what businesses need to be developed to maintain the facade of normal organizational operations. As for now..."

He paused for a moment and then said, "I've already come up with a disguise for the organization's name. Before announcing it, I'd like to hear your opinions first."

“Xiao,” Lu Xining said.

Fan Xiao: "..."

"Sister, isn't this plagiarism?" Lu Baizhi complained.

“Quicksand,” Li Xian said in a serious tone, “gathering and scattering quicksand.”

He was probably retaliating against Van Shaw for joking with him earlier.

At this moment, he had already asked Mercury, who had been playing the paper game with him, to leave his office.

With Vanshaw controlling the illusion, Mercury never saw their meeting.

"..." Fan Xiao: "Can you guys be serious for once? Are you trying to make sure everyone knows we're the Assassin Group?"

Fairy Tail?

"Full sex?"

"..."

Fan Xiao said, "Forget it, I'll just announce it directly."

After drawing everyone's attention, he said, "Assassination is a means, not an end."

"Our existence is to create a more stable world and to guide us toward a better future."

"It is to end the deep darkness."

"Then we sing at dawn and welcome the rising sun... 'Chaoge'—that is the name of our organization."

He paused briefly, then his voice rang with fervor: "We are waiting for the future."

Volume 5: There Will Be Times When We Ride the Wind and Break the Waves

Chapter 404 Leaving the G08 Time Node

Fan Xiao held a glass of "Summer Blaze" and turned his head to look out the window. The golden-red light shone in, slightly dazzling. It was a large expanse of fiery clouds, gathered together like seawater, appearing viscous.

The time-traveling train is traveling through an unknown sky.

He picked up the translucent glass, which seemed to have the color of the sun, and took a small sip. The glassy liquid seemed to burst as it entered his mouth, followed by a warm sensation that soothed his throat, eased the intense stimulation, and brought him a wonderful sense of novelty.

Fan Xiao turned his gaze away from the window and murmured, "No wonder it's a 2000 game coin cup of wine. One sip is equivalent to drinking 400 game coins. It's full of the taste of money."

Are you describing it as expensive? Or as delicious?

Sitting opposite Fan Xiao, Lu Xining reminded him, "Many players in the section have reported that the drinks sold on the Time Train are addictive."

“It’s just something I try occasionally,” Fan Xiao said with a slight smile. “Addiction is nothing more than the addition of some addictive drug. It’s an abnormal state. If it really happens, just have Zhi Zi treat it.”

"Yes, no, sister, don't worry."

Sitting next to Lu Xining, Lu Baizhi nodded and said, "With me here, there won't be any problems."

"Wine and women are harmful to health."

Lu Xining stared at Fan Xiao and reminded him again, "You shouldn't drink alcohol so casually in the future."

Goodness, you didn't mention "lust" at all... Fan Xiao finally understood why Lu Xining suddenly brought up this topic.

This guy wasn't behaving himself even on the train...

After giving Lu Xining a warning look, Fan Xiao changed the subject, asking, "Which instance did you go to this time?"

"002 partition".

Lu Baizhi said with a hint of emotion, "I saw many players in the forum complaining that after reaching level C, it's basically difficult to run dungeons with friends because the pool of players is smaller, making it harder to find and trade tickets for the same dungeon."

"As a result... I didn't expect that as soon as I became a C-rank player, I would get two train tickets just like my sister's... Now we can go into dungeons together again."

"What are you surprised about?" Lu Xining glanced at her sister. "Don't you have any idea what you're capable of?"

Yes, but what she originally wanted was to get the same train ticket as Fan Xiao... Lu Baizhi muttered to herself without saying it aloud.

Yes, Lu Baizhi has become a C-level player.

In just six months, I easily climbed to C-rank, without even taking a decent hit in dungeons...

Originally, she was one dungeon away from leveling up.

Fan Xiao helped the little girl with Fairy Tale Town... well, it wasn't really a help, just something he did along the way.

Because among the time-travel tickets Lu Baizhi had obtained, there just happened to be one for Fairy Tale Town...

When Fan Xiao first learned of this, he was slightly surprised, but he quickly came to terms with it.

In a sense, Lu Baizhi could be considered his lucky charm, so he probably wouldn't be surprised if anything happened to this girl.

The luck that's been entangled in you for twelve days is constantly at work... Are you scared yet?

Fan Xiao estimated that even if he hadn't revealed that he possessed the dungeon, Lu Baizhi would have been able to discover his identity as the dungeon boss sooner or later, based on the ticket to Fairy Tale Town.

For example, while he was in the instance, Lu Baizhi happened to enter with her ticket, and the instance opened.

This little girl's talent is so strong that she can heal and repair mental abnormalities, and break through Yan Keke's illusionary deception...

All these factors combined could very well lead to Lu Baizhi seeing him in Fairy Tale Town by some unexpected reason, and then discovering his hidden identity.

Fan Xiao truly admires him!

Although his maximum potential for luck is much higher than Lu Baizhi's.

But Lu Baizhi's luck was so bad... even he envied it.

To ensure that Lu Meimei could level up smoothly, Fan Xiao did not reveal any information about Fairy Tale Town.

Fortunately, last time he only took the two sisters sightseeing, showing them the scenery along the way, without explaining the rules of the game or anything like that.

After overcoming numerous challenges with her own abilities, Lu Baizhi finally cleared Fairy Tale Town with a C-level rating, successfully becoming a C-level player.

"Fan Xiao, um... which division are you going to? Is it also 002?"

At this moment, Lu Baizhi asked a question out of curiosity.

“No, I’m going quite far this time.” Fan Xiao didn’t hide anything and answered truthfully, “I’m going to node G06.”

"...Other spacetime nodes!?"

Lu Baizhi was startled.

No wonder I didn't get the same ticket this time, it turns out I'm going to a different destination... she realized.

In principle, the evolution game will not issue tickets to other nodes to players below B level.

Players below rank B who want to experience other nodes' dungeons can only buy tickets... provided that the platform has the corresponding tickets for sale.

"Why the sudden change of location?" Lu Xining asked, frowning. "Is it related to the court?"

This is the only reason she can think of.

"Well...you could say that," Fan Xiao explained. "It's mainly related to Tina... cough, to Teacher Tina. She asked me to help bring back her third student."

The ticket that his senior sister Yu Xuezhao gave him was a replica ticket for partition 019 of node G06.

To access the instance corresponding to this ticket, he must first go to node G06.

"The third student?" Lu Baizhi suddenly asked, "Is it a boy or a girl?"

"..." Fan Xiao replied calmly, "Is that important?"

"I...I was just asking casually."

Lu Baizhi stammered.

“I don’t know if it’s a man or a woman,” Fan Xiao began to steer the conversation, “but it’s definitely not a simple person. None of Teacher Tina’s students are simple. For example, my senior sister Yu Xue Zhao gives people a very dangerous feeling.”

At this point, he sighed softly, "I hope this process goes smoothly, and that there doesn't come any conflict, and that we end up fighting with the target."

"Probably...not right?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Baizhi also began to worry about Fan Xiao.

Her first reaction was to be conflicted about gender... That's just ridiculous!

Fan Xiao took on so many risks, yet she doesn't seem to understand the implications...

Lu Xining glanced at her sister, then at Fan Xiao, knowing better but saying nothing.

For someone as naive and innocent as my younger sister, it would be a shame not to have her NTR (Netorare, a form of infidelity) happen to her.

Thinking of this, she lifted her lower leg and stretched it forward.

Thump—Fan Xiao placed the glass in his hand on the small table between the two rows of seats.

Hearing the sound, Lu Xining stopped what she was doing, glanced at the rim of the cup a few times, and murmured, "I'm a little thirsty."

"If you don't mind, please drink it."
