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

"Is that so..." Fan Xiao asked, "Then has there been any intelligence related to me recently?"

“Yes, Master.” The monocle immediately replied, “The current Queen of Sector 001, Charlotte Celen, instructed her eldest daughter, Melissa Celen, three hours ago to go to the Rice Manor to meet with you, Master, and to spend more time with you to gather more information about you… This Queen is really too inconsiderate! Xiao Zhen deeply condemns her behavior!”

"..."

Fan Xiao asked in surprise, "Queen Charlotte...this happened in the capital of Xilun?"

"Yes Master."

Are there any relevant videos or footage?

"some."

The monocle immediately displayed the relevant image.

Before Fan Xiao's right eye appeared a new two-dimensional animation—an animation of two lolis talking in a palace.

One of the lolis was dressed in a gorgeous court dress and had an air of majesty. The word "Charlotte" was written on her head.

The other little girl... Judging from her hair color and other characteristics, she is Melissa, whom he had just parted ways with not long ago, and Melissa's name is also marked on her head.

Charlotte then said to Melissa, "Since that B-level player has extended an invitation to you, spend some time getting to know him and gathering as much information as possible about him...blah blah blah... Remember, also keep in touch with the Rice Manor. The opportunity might be hidden there."

Fan Xiao: "..."

Wow! This is so detailed!?

This snob prop may be a terrible character, but it's incredibly useful!

It truly lives up to its reputation as a top-tier prop.

Wouldn't this be considered a scholar who knows everything without ever leaving his home?

And... how come Melissa's mother is also a loli?

"Why was there an interruption?" Fan Xiao asked. "Was any footage lost?"

“Things with a shallow causal relationship to the master cannot be passively investigated by Xiao Zhen,” the monocle replied. “If the master wishes to know, he can go to this palace in the Xilun Royal Palace, where Xiao Zhen can then investigate all the information.”

"Forget it," Fan Xiao shook his head. "There must be quite a few A-level players in Xilun Royal City. The item theft incident just happened recently, so it's best to keep a low profile for now."

Anyway, the past records are on the timeline, and he can access them whenever he goes; there is no time limit.

The A-rank item "Truth Surpasses All" may lack direct combat capabilities, but in terms of intelligence gathering, it fully meets the standards expected of a super A-rank item.

"The effect of the Super A item is a bit exaggerated... If I encounter an offensive Super A item, it's a question whether I can defend against it."

"It seems... upgrading the defenses is urgently needed."

The powerful effects of the Super A item gave Fan Xiao a long-lost sense of urgency.

His paranoia has started acting up again.

He continued, "Your third function, the daily proactive observation... tell me in detail what it is."

"Master, this function is an upgraded version of the first function, removing the restriction that you must go to the correct location."

The monocle said, "For example, with the interruption of that animation just now, the owner can use this function to find out what was interrupted."

"However, this feature has many limitations. For example, it can only focus on a specific event that occurs at a specific location. It cannot see other events besides this event, or the preceding and subsequent events that occur in other locations and are related to this event."

"Furthermore, if a matter involves too much or too complicated information, Xiao Zhen can only show a portion of it..."

Xiao Zhen began to explain in detail.

After listening, Fan Xiao had a general idea of ​​what the third function was.

For example, when investigating an incident, he cannot give too vague a definition. For instance, he cannot directly observe what violent incidents Tina has committed in section 001. He can only refine the investigation target, first observe what the first violent incident Tina committed in section 001 was, and then wait a day until the active observation opportunity of the props refreshes before checking what the second violent incident was.

Alternatively, he can specify a location and time to investigate what happened at that location during that period—the specified time cannot be unlimited, and how long he can observe depends on the amount of information displayed by the prop.

Once the information reaches the limit, the session will end.

In other words, this function has an implicit limitation—information.

If a matter involves too many causal relationships, it cannot be read all at once and will require several days to read in installments.

After listening to Xiao Zhen's description, Fan Xiao lowered his eyelids, narrowed his eyes, and asked with a dangerous look, "Do you really have this limitation, or... are you patching up your potential future misbehavior in advance?"

"Master!! Xiao Zhen really has limitations!! Please believe in Xiao Zhen!!"

The man with the monocle seemed a little anxious and hurriedly explained and frantically assured her that he was telling the truth.

Fan Xiao asked, "Then... is the 80% success rate of this third function true or false?"

"It's true, but only the master has this right. Anyone else who gets Xiao Zhen will be unable to use the third function, because Xiao Zhen will actively conceal and intercept the information she obtains."

Fan Xiao: "..."

Oh... it doesn't even bother to pretend?

The monocle continued, "80% is the limitation of the item's effect itself, but not everything follows the 80% rule."

"The specific probability depends on the information density of the event that the master wants to investigate."

"If the event involves too many causal relationships, the actual success rate will be far less than 80%, and it may even be classified as an impossible success."

"It's impossible to succeed... What if we explore the information separately and then deduce the result ourselves?"

Fan Xiao asked.

If you can't get the answer all at once, then spend more time exploring a little bit each day, and then piece together the answer yourself. This should reduce the difficulty.

Soon, the monocle gave an affirmative answer.

That's acceptable.

By this point, he had a pretty good grasp of all the functions of this prop.

Subconsciously, Fan Xiao raised his hand to pinch the monocle, adjusted it slightly, and then, with a thoughtful expression, used the prop's third function.

He murmured, "I want to see what happened during the animation interruption."

The third function has been activated.

To Fan Xiao's surprise, the relevant footage appeared quickly, and it seemed that he had just happened to have an 80% success rate.

The cartoon palace reappeared, and a middle-aged man with the name "Otto" walked in and began questioning Queen Charlotte about why she had plotted to steal her props.

"..." Fan Xiao: "This guy... he's really shameless."

So it turns out Obama was just trying to shift the blame.

They were the ones who voluntarily helped deliver the props, yet they pinned the blame on the royal family and Queen Charlotte.

That shamelessness... it makes him want to recruit the other person as one of his own.

"Yes, Master, Ao has always been shameless."

The monocle didn't hesitate to insult its former owner.

Fan Xiao looked thoughtful: "It involves information on two A-level players, one of whom is the queen of Division 001, yet it was so easy to succeed... Xiao Zhen, is your 80% probability just for show?"

Yes, he investigated this matter intentionally to test the prop.

After all, he's a swindler, so we still need to be careful.

"Master!" The man with the monocle seemed anxious as he hurriedly replied, "The reason it was so easy to succeed is because Ao never concealed his act of forcibly breaking into the palace. This matter is probably known to many people, so it's not a secret. Therefore, it wasn't difficult to investigate. Master, you must trust Xiao Zhen!"

It has given everything.

Why doubt it at all?

The baby is very sad, but the baby is afraid to say it...

"I believe you, of course I believe you," Fan Xiao said with a smile. "I was just asking casually."

After offering a casual explanation, he created a small pocket on the "blood suit" draped over his shoulder, then removed his monocle from his right eye socket and put it inside.

"Your appearance is too flashy. Any discerning player will recognize you at a glance. It's too dangerous."

Fan Xiao looked at the pocket and murmured, "When I'm not wearing you, you can just stay here and wait."

A slight vibration came from my pocket, which was Xiao Zhen's response.

Despite his concern about the potential trouble caused by revealing the item, Fan Xiao did not directly store it in the player's storage space.

This item can passively collect past information related to him and report it to him in a timely manner—it's a very powerful function!

It was so powerful that it amazed him.

Therefore, he had to ensure that Xiao Zhen was always in a state where she could report information to him.

"In this way, the possibility of being ambushed in the future will be even smaller."

Fan Xiao's mood improved considerably because of this prop.

……

At node G08, the strength difference between partitions 001 and 002 is not particularly large, and their technological development is at a similar level. However, the two partitions exhibit very different cultural styles.

The art style of Zone 001 looks normal, with nothing strange about it, and it fits people's various fantasies about future cities.

However, the super-city architectural style of Zone 002, due to its mechanical punk style, gives people a sense of old-fashioned... or rather, nostalgic atmosphere, as if it were stuck in the last century.

Of course, advanced technology has already been seamlessly integrated into this area in every aspect.

The combination of new and old styles gives this section its own unique character.

Compared to Zone 001, Zone 002 is more prosperous in tourism, attracting countless ordinary people and players from other zones to visit every year.

The most famous city in Division 002 is Pompeii.

This city is also the hometown of Wu Tongnian and Wu Tongyue, the place where they grew up.

The siblings' usual attire always matches the city's style...very punk!

They aren't afraid of being identified as being from a certain region. The 002 division is very strong, so there won't be any situations where players come here to cause trouble out of revenge.

Or rather... they'd be happy to cause some trouble for their hometown.

In their eyes, Division 002, Pompeii, has always been a piece of shit.

How could a respectable city produce such unorthodox and crazy people?

If we're talking about which partition of the G08 node has the most Mammon players, partition 002 is second to none.

"Dude, check the forum! Our chance has come!"

After returning home from the dungeon, Wu Tongyue found her brother Wu Tongnian and excitedly said, "The chance to take down Reinhardt has arrived!"

"You mean that post by 'Youth Fan'? I saw it a long time ago."

Sitting on the sofa, Wu Tongnian glanced at his younger sister and curled his lip, saying, "With your speed of reacting to trending events, tsk, you can't even catch up with hot shit!"

"What did you say!"

Wu Tongyue narrowed her eyes slightly.

He seemed a little angry.

My buddy's mouth is foul as always!

"I told you you're a bit slow!"

Wu Tongnian glanced at his sister and uttered another foul-mouthed remark.

Although his sister is quite beautiful, a real beauty, her smoky makeup, punk hair, dreadlocks... her weird appearance makes his looks and temperament consistently low, and sometimes even annoying or frightening—well, he was the one who taught her this style of dressing in the first place.

People who are too good-looking are easily targeted by others when they join gaming groups.

Those who gain power tend to become arrogant, leading players to not suppress their desires. There are countless guys who are driven by lust when they see a beautiful woman.

Therefore, for his sister's safety, he dressed her up as an ugly monster from a young age.

Later he discovered that Wu Tongyue seemed even more perverted than him; not only did she kill people, but she also enjoyed whipping corpses... Damn! Why should he worry about someone like that?

So he ignored that little pervert after that.

Wu Tongyue, on the other hand, is used to punk style, and as she gets older, she dresses herself in an increasingly abstract way.

So abstract is that if his older brother just glances at him, he can't help but want to unleash a torrent of curses.

"Hey sis, I just realized you're fucking ugly!"

Do you want to die?

Wu Tongyue's eyes turned cold, but the corners of her mouth slightly lifted: "Speaking of which, I've never tried turning my family into works of art before... Hehe, brother, do you think I should find an opportunity to use you as an example?"
