His B-grade psionic "Cyber ​​Ghost" can also spawn units, but the combat units it produces are not like the opponent's, which can rely on a large amount of external flesh and blood to stack up their combat power. Overall, it is much weaker.

Of course, he didn't think his psychic powers were weak.

For example, intelligence gathering, or moving at the speed of light in the world of network signals... these are things that Fan Xiao's psionic abilities cannot do.

Each has its advantages and disadvantages.

"Should we go check with the Special Affairs Bureau?" Li Xian suggested. "Class B trains are rare, and it's estimated that it will be some time before the train arrives."

"Forget it, I'll just wander around outside." Fan Xiao pouted. "I'm already demonized in the eyes of your Special Affairs Bureau. Why would I go there and make things difficult? Besides... Bai Zhi is on a Class C train, she should be arriving soon."

After saying that, he quietly changed his appearance—becoming a tall, muscular man with a buzz cut and an undisguised black number on his arm.

After thinking for a moment, he changed the black number to white... Hmm, a human player who might be a cannibal player in disguise, that's the first impression he gives.

Subsequently, Fan Xiao communicated with Fairy Tale Town and connected with Yan Keke.

Under the interference of the A-level psionic "Delusion Kingdom," the short-term memories in the minds of the surrounding players were presented to him in the form of illusions.

He quickly identified the players who had just focused their attention on them and deleted their related memories.

While maintaining his ability to interfere with memories, he asked Li Xian and Lu Baizhi, "Do you need to transform?"

"It's troublesome."

Li Xian nodded and used the precise body control that came with the B-level evolution rate to change his appearance, transforming him into an ordinary-looking burly man.

Lu Baizhi, on the other hand, transforms into an ordinary-looking girl.

Fan Xiao deleted the relevant memories of those around him.

The three quickly integrated into the player community.

The player whose memories were erased only felt a moment of confusion before quickly forgetting about it.

"Urgently need D-level defenders! Commission of 8, deposit of 2 required, first come first served!"

"Looking for a bodyguard for E-class! Commission of 20,000, deposit of 5000. Must be very sensible and cooperative, never intentionally causes harm, reasonable requirements, low workload, high pay, first come first served!"

"Has anyone ever brought their C-class driver's license with them...?"

As soon as they blended into the group of players, shouts reached the ears of Fan Xiao and his companions.

Lu Baizhi murmured curiously, "Guardians?"

"It refers to a group of players who help others complete dungeons and then receive payment."

Li Xian replied, "I remember telling you guys back in the 'Utopia' instance that there were signs of something like this in our section as well."

"Taking people through the game and getting paid is a common practice in other areas."

"Some players who aren't good at the second-generation game will find skilled players of the same level to carry them through dungeons."

"Why don't we just go to the safe instance?" Lu Baizhi said.

“The number of safe dungeons is limited, and the ratings obtained are not as high as those obtained by having someone carry you through dungeons normally,” Li Xian said. “As long as nothing unexpected happens along the way, the second method is more cost-effective, and you can also get better ratings and level up faster.”

“This kind of thing can easily become a business model,” Fan Xiao asked. “There must already be people outside setting up trading platforms, right?”

"Indeed."

Li Xian nodded: "The Special Affairs Bureau is also doing this business. Of course, the main purpose is not to make money, but to regulate the market and prevent some dark things from growing in this business area, and prevent people from hiding in it to make money and kill people."

"The relevant trading platforms are newly established, and not many players know about them. Moreover, most players are very busy, so it is not easy for people with needs to find suitable people on the platform."

"So many players who are desperately in need of Guardians will come to the station to shout, just like now."

"Is it……"

Fan Xiao approached a short-haired young man who was shouting.

The young man noticed his approach, glanced at his tall and muscular build, and then looked at the white player number on his arm. As if he had thought of something, his expression immediately changed, and he quickly retreated a great distance, squeezing into the crowd and disappearing from sight.

"...Okay. It seems my disguise was perfect."

Fan Xiao said to Lu Baizhi, who seemed to be suppressing a laugh.

Li Xian moved closer and asked, "Your current appearance... is like a cannibal player disguised as a human player? By the way, why do you always like to pretend to be a cannibal player?"

"Only by disguising myself as a cannibal player and integrating into their group can I know what they are plotting in the dark, and stop them from committing violence and harming people at critical moments, thus preventing more victims from appearing."

Fan Xiao said with a hint of emotion, "If everyone could be more moral, I wouldn't have to be such a tired player. It's hard to be a good person."

"..." Li Xian: "Oh."

Soon, the train arrived at the station... Lu Baizhi's Class C train had arrived.

Before boarding the train, the little girl said to Fan Xiao with reluctance, "Fan Xiao, come to Roman City soon, okay? I'll be waiting for you there. Um... I'll talk to my sister and persuade her. Don't worry, we won't make things difficult for you."

“…” Fan Xiao said, “Be careful on the road.”

"Um……"

Lu Baizhi left by car.

About two hours later, a time-traveling train that was much larger and more luxurious than a regular train pulled into Station A1 and stopped next to the platform.

"Huh? Is that... the Class B train that appeared not long ago?"

"A Class B train? Our region doesn't have any Class B dungeons. This means... a Class B player from this region used a ticket? Who is it?"

"Let me see which B-level player it is."

"Damn it! If you're looking to die, don't drag me into it, stay away from me!!"

An uproar immediately broke out among the players.

Everyone's eyes lit up as they looked around, searching for someone who had used a ticket.

Fan Xiao and Li Xian entered the B-class train, surrounded by the gazes of the players.

The carriages of Class B trains are very spacious, and the seat spacing is much larger than that of Class C trains... It's like the difference between second-class and first-class seats.

Fan Xiao looked around and found that there were only seven people seated in the entire carriage.

The number of passengers in other carriages doesn't seem very optimistic either.

It seems there aren't many B-level players at node G08... or rather, not many B-level players participate in B-level dungeons.

The B-level dungeon only needs to be participated in once every three years. Most B-level players, unless they are in a hurry, will choose to stay in their own zone and enjoy the status they have worked so hard to achieve.

Running a dungeon?

Let's wait until the deadline!

Fan Xiao glanced at the seven people in the car, then turned his gaze to the side—Yan Keke was standing next to him.

Yes, he has kept the entrance to Fairy Tale Town open.

Anyway, doing this doesn't consume any resources.

With the help of Fairy Tale Town, he became stronger and safer, which greatly alleviated his paranoia.

Well... when facing Yan Keke, he felt somewhat awkward... well, even with his thick skin, he couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.

After all, they had a bit too much fun last night and stayed up all night at home... Although Yan Keke couldn't see what was happening in the house, she could definitely sense his and Lu Baizhi's emotional state.

Given this girl's personality, she must have sensed it all night long.

The most obvious evidence is... Yan Keke's cheeks are very red right now, and her emotional reaction is reflected in her mental body.

He couldn't tell if she was embarrassed or shy, or if she was empathizing with Lu Baizhi's feelings and reliving how she felt last night... It was probably the former, Fan Xiao thought to himself.

If it's the latter... then that's a bit... scary!

"Brother Fan, those four people seem a bit tense."

Yan Keke pointed to four of the seven people in the carriage and reminded Fan Xiao.

Fan Xiao nodded.

Four...it seems they are the so-called "Death Line Warriors".

The time limit has arrived, and I have no choice but to participate in the dungeon, with my fate uncertain... How can I not be nervous?

Fan Xiao and Li Xian found a seat near a corner and sat down.

Subsequently, Yan Keke created an illusionary barrier that blocked sound and sight for the two of them.

Fan Xiao said with a sigh, "I never thought that a simple car ride could turn into an unexpected show-off. This is the first time I've truly felt how backward our node is."

“It’s like this in our partitioning,” Li Xian said. “It’s better in the more developed converged partitions. However, our G08 node doesn’t have many converged partitions. Including the 001 partition, it seems there are only 5 in total.”

"Five?" Fan Xiao was somewhat surprised. "There are nearly 20 nodes on the G02 side. They're both G-letter nodes, just with a few numbers off. Is the difference really that big?"

Li Xian shook his head: "I'm not too sure about that. But I heard that our node ranks very high in terms of strength within the G-spacetime node."

"Although we don't have many fusion zones here, the number of A-level players... might be the largest among them."

"Who told you that?" Fan Xiao asked.

Li Xian: "Jade and snow reflect each other."

"..."

Fan Xiao revealed a thoughtful look.

If this data comes from Yu Xuezhao, it should be true without any surprises.

After all, according to Coco, his senior sister has been running around to various nodes recently.

Are their nodes unexpectedly strong?

Uh... that's quite unexpected.

"By the way, which instance did you participate in?" Fan Xiao asked.

Li Xian waved the train ticket in his hand: "Mass Graveyard, judging from the name, it seems to be a supernatural dungeon? But I don't plan to go there. I'll go directly to Roman City to participate in the assassination assessment. Even if the punishment is a halved dungeon time limit, I still have a year and a half, so there's no need to rush. What about you?"

“City of True Love,” Fan Xiao replied. “Judging from the name… I can’t tell what kind of dungeon it is. Hopefully, this time the dungeon will be a bit easier.”

Clang... The train started moving, and the scenery of different times and spaces quickly came into view.

About half a day later, the train arrived at a station in Roman City. Li Xian and Fan Xiao said a brief goodbye and got off the train.

Fan Xiao continued his journey by car and soon arrived at another megacity in Division 001—the royal family's headquarters, Xilun Royal City.

The node station that leaves node G08 is built here.

However... he had heard that the development of Xilun Royal City seemed to be not very good. In recent years, the economic center of Division 001 has gradually shifted to Roman City, and the trend is getting stronger and stronger.

Roman City has transformed from a tourist city, and the transformation has been very successful. It is becoming more and more vibrant and energetic, and many nobles have even moved there and settled there permanently.

The royal family is no longer what it used to be. Although it is not entirely defunct, its influence is far less than before.

In today's 001 district, various factions such as capital, nobility, church, and royalty are intertwined, and there are many open and covert struggles, making the situation extremely complex and chaotic.

The royal family seems to want to connect the nearby royal city of Xilun and the city of Roman into a single megacity, and naturally, they have encountered a lot of resistance.

"Brother Fan, should we find it ourselves, or should we teleport there directly?"

Yan Keke asked Fan Xiao a question.

She loved going into dungeons with Fan Xiao the most... Although she couldn't enter the dungeons after they were opened, the two of them had some time alone before that, without being disturbed by others, which gave her the feeling of going on a honeymoon.

Those who might bother them... The other little girls had already been bribed with candy, while Sister Liuyi stayed at home; now it was her turn to shine.

“It’s rare that we all came by car,” Fan Xiao said with a smile. “It’s not like it’s an independent space instance, so naturally we’ll find our way there ourselves. That’s more interesting.”

Chapter 586 Miss Sakura

There is an invisible connection between the dungeon tickets and the dungeons, which allows players to have a slight sense of the dungeon's location when they hold the ticket.

However, train tickets are not as detailed as mobile map navigation, which displays all the information; players only know which direction to go.

As for how to get there and what mode of transportation to use... that's up to the players to decide and solve themselves.

Many players enjoy the feeling of traveling, so when they go to a dungeon, they choose to travel there on their own, whether on foot, by bike, or by car. The scenery along the way, the people and things they encounter... all these things combined can create a fairly pleasant journey, which is much more exciting than the monotonous ticket-based teleportation.

Of course, some people prefer to work efficiently and don't like to waste time slowly, but most of these people will eventually choose to travel on their own.

After all... who knows if this is the last time I'll run a dungeon?

The death rate in dungeons is too high. No one can guarantee that they will survive. Enjoy the scenery along the way. If you do die unexpectedly, at least you'll have died gracefully before you die.

Many players share this idea, so unless they encounter a dungeon with an independent space, most people will choose to explore more and wander around.
