After venting for a while, the junior sister probably released some of the pent-up emotions in her heart, and now she felt quite refreshed.
Even the way she looked at Alpha became kinder.
This idiot is actually quite capable... and he doesn't mean her any harm, he's just plain stupid.
Since that's the case, I won't bother with it.
……
Half past eight in the morning.
Fan Xiao and Alpha followed their junior sister to the front of a villa in the central urban area of the A9 base.
This residential building is one of the consortium's idle assets and has never been inhabited.
Huiying arranged for this place to be given to his "compatriot".
On the way here, Fan Xiao asked his junior sister some questions and found out the current situation of the A9 base and the Holy Sword Alliance.
Now, all five B-level players in the A9 base have been eliminated.
Besides Cassandra, the Holy Sword Alliance had a total of five B-rank players participating in this operation.
They practically came out in full force.
Cassandra was tasked with dealing with Charles and Maren, while the remaining five B-rank members of the Holy Sword Alliance were responsible for eliminating the other three.
Everyone used surprise attack tactics, so the battle was almost one-sided.
As for the low-level players at the A9 base, the remaining members of the Holy Sword Alliance were responsible for holding them off.
Once their high-end combat forces were freed up, they destroyed the three major conglomerates in just one night.
Charles and Maren's men were almost all wiped out.
Few players managed to escape with their tickets during this great battle, and they probably won't dare to come back anytime soon—returning will teleport them back to where they left, unless they go to the 019 partition dungeon, clear it, and exit through the dungeon's exit, in which case they will appear in other locations within the partition.
Of course, with such a big commotion, relevant information will definitely spread; it's just a matter of time.
The Holy Sword Alliance cannot possibly block the news.
At this moment, Fan Xiao was somewhat curious about what Huiying, the dungeon boss, planned to do next.
The ten bases in Zone 019 are basically independent of each other, and there is no cooperative relationship between them.
Therefore, it's impossible for high-level players from other bases to come here specifically to avenge Charles and his group.
B-level players are very afraid of death. The greatest significance of the base to them is to enjoy themselves to the fullest. As for actual benefits... there is really nothing to gain.
Therefore, facing the Holy Sword Alliance, which could wipe out the A9 base's top brass, they naturally wouldn't risk their lives to gain petty gains such as population, wealth, or ordinary resources.
At most, they worry that the Holy Sword Alliance might target them next. Amid this anxiety, they each seek out reliable partners and allies to band together for mutual support.
As for uniting to attack... given the "selfish and hedonistic" nature of the players in the 019 division, it's almost impossible without knowing the Holy Sword Alliance's true strength.
With the crisis looming, every extra year we can live is a blessing; why would we willingly jump into danger?
It's likely that only if the Holy Sword Alliance wins the battle will they be forced to launch a counterattack.
but……
A1 Base is different!
Based on what he gleaned from Charles, Vanshaw made a judgment—since the fantasy material used to build Base A9 was neither bought nor stolen, it was very likely provided by Base A1.
The A1 base was created when there weren't even any B-level players in the 019 division, which clearly hides a significant secret.
Perhaps the fantasy materials used to build the other eight bases were all provided by Base A1.
Base A1 couldn't possibly be some rich kid's foolish son; it must have something to gain by providing so much fantasy material!
Now that the Holy Sword Alliance has seized the A9 base, Fan Xiao believes that the retired A-level player at the A1 base will most likely not stand idly by.
"Is Huiying planning to wait for that A-level player to attack first, forcing Junior Sister to take action?"
This guess flashed through Fan Xiao's mind.
But then again, I felt that this behavior was a bit too presumptuous.
What if that A-level player mobilizes all the high-level players from other bases to come and besiege them?
Advanced players in other bases may be afraid of dying, but with a former A-level player leading the way, the situation is different.
Huiying's plan seems reasonable at first glance, but upon closer examination... it is quite unwise.
There must be some secret behind this that he doesn't know.
"You can stay here for now. I'll be mostly at the A9 base during this time. If you need to contact the teacher, just let me know. However..."
After settling Fan Xiao and Alpha in, Cassandra reminded them, "Now that you know my identity, there are some things I won't hide from you."
“My father doesn’t know I’ve become a player, so… I need to go back every now and then to deal with the servants in the mansion.”
"Don't worry," Fan Xiao nodded, "I'm fine for now, I need to trouble Miss Huiying."
“Okay.” Cassandra nodded. “Then you guys rest for a bit. I need to go back to Base A1.”
After saying that, she took out the "Photo of Guilt" and quickly completed the dungeon coordinate anchoring ceremony.
A few seconds later, the surrounding scenery began to distort.
Cassandra quickly twisted along with it, her figure fading into nothingness. She had been swept into the instance by the echo.
Once the light distortion disappeared, Alpha asked Van Helsing, "Lord Van Helsing, is Miss Foolish traveling through a dungeon?"
“Hmm,” Fan Xiao guessed, “I guess there are Holy Sword Alliance spies at Base A1 too. Send a message over there to let the spies there pinpoint the coordinates, and Miss Huiying can send Ben… send Cassandra over there.”
The disguise needs to be more comprehensive.
Slips of the tongue are unacceptable; I need to be more careful in the future.
Although my junior sister is really clumsy... or rather, naive.
"Alright, go play by yourself, just don't go too far."
Vanshaw dismissed Alpha with a single sentence.
If his silly daughter were around, she would probably keep asking him awkward, bizarre, nitpicky, and unpleasant questions.
So... let others suffer this pain instead.
After Alpha left the mansion, Fan Xiao, now with some free time, became quite serious.
The wish he had made earlier has now been completely fulfilled—he now understands the responsibility his junior sister bears.
Therefore, he will probably no longer be blessed with good fortune in his future actions.
This is something to keep in mind.
Fan Xiao felt that Huiying gave him a somewhat mysterious feeling.
I have a feeling that they're hiding something.
Would someone in charge of a large organization lack shrewdness? The fact that he could be so easily fooled suggests it's not entirely due to his skill in deception.
The "inevitability" built up by a series of coincidences, influenced by luck, laid a solid foundation for this scam.
And next...
If possible, he should try to avoid having too much contact with the reflection.
After all, if you walk by the river often enough, you're bound to get your shoes wet.
Once exposed, he would have to face the schemes of a B-rank dungeon boss—he had previously inquired with his junior sister that Huiying's dungeon was a B-rank dungeon.
"I joined the Holy Sword Alliance only to facilitate the gathering of information about my junior sister. Now that I have the information, I can discard the Van Helsing persona."
"Next... I guess I'll have to go to the A1 base to gather intelligence on Shash Sen. To liberate my junior sister, I can't avoid this culprit who caused the chaos in the 019 division."
Fan Xiao has formulated his next plan.
I thought it would just be a simple matter of bringing someone back to see my senior sister, but I never expected things to turn out so complicated...
A retired A-level player, mysterious fantasy substances, the Echo of the dungeon boss, the One-Winged Organization... all these factors combined made him feel that things were not so simple.
Hopefully nothing unexpected will happen.
……
For game companies, the main purpose of releasing the "all-time-space node bounty list" is indeed to offer rewards for those heinous criminals.
Really!
No joke!
But at some point, this list became a "risk avoidance guide" for game governments at various nodes and in various regions.
It has become the ultimate advertising platform in the eyes of the huge group of villainous players, used to boost their reputation, fashion value, and popularity.
Of course, the game company's strength is beyond doubt.
Most of the players on the bounty list were killed by their men.
The names on the list change almost every year.
Only super players can consistently rank high on the list and maintain their positions.
Super Player – An existence standing at the pinnacle of the entire evolution game.
They represent not only absolute force, but also absolute intelligence.
People who aren't smart enough would have died in the dungeon long ago, and naturally wouldn't be able to climb to such a high position.
Therefore, even game companies rarely manage to corner them and successfully capture and deal with them.
The game companies even suffered a blow when hardcore gamers killed many of their top executives.
The vast majority of super players are hostile to the game company—not because they are inherently rebellious, but because from the moment a player collects the "three major items" and becomes a super player, they receive revelation from "God" and know the most core secret of the entire evolution game.
This secret has been kept hidden by the game company, which even used S-level items to mark and curse it.
Therefore, the conflict between these two parties is almost irreconcilable.
Super players who refuse to be recruited by game companies will be put on a bounty list and hunted down by the game government across all time and space nodes... Well, just take the latter with a grain of salt.
In the early stages of the game, some unscrupulous forces did indeed try to take advantage of the super players.
Then all these forces were reclassified as having "existed".
Of course, not all super players are so ruthless and bloodthirsty.
If ranked by ferocity, the three "super lolis" are the most famous among the super players listed on the bounty list.
Well... "Super Lolita" is a nickname coined by some incredibly audacious people.
The reason is... all three of them are young girls who are active in the evolution game.
The country was destroyed.
A tide of chaos.
Absolute justice.
They are three ruthless individuals who strike fear into the hearts of all game governments across all nodes.
……
On a time-traveling train.
The chaotic light outside the car window shone into the car and shone on a middle-aged man with a thin face, a high nose, a kind expression, and gold-rimmed glasses.
The man glanced at the pocket watch in his hand, checked the time, and put down the book in his hand. A medal had appeared in his hand without him noticing. The front of the medal was engraved with a broken-winged bird, and the back had a pattern of a one-winged angel descending from the sky.
Through the medal, the man made contact with a student of the super player "Chaos Tide"...
He edited the message and sent it: "I'm going to node G06 to handle some work. Now that you've completed the 'Tides of Chaos' mission, how about coming with me? It's also time for you to go back to node G08."
"When to set off?"
The reply message arrived quickly.
The man smiled, edited the message again, and sent it: "One day later. Location:..."
After agreeing on a time and meeting place with the other party, the man changed the badge number he was using to contact the new person.
The more advanced version of the Bird Angel Medal can connect to the Evolution Game, lock onto other medals across time and space nodes, and establish an information transmission loop.
This level of secondary item can no longer be mass-produced by applying to the Evolution Game.
