Re-live your life and start speedrunning

Yes.

Logically speaking, as a non-staff member, these things have nothing to do with me, and Qu Shenyin has no reason to tell me!

——It wouldn't be that I would show mercy when I meet the leader and not kill him for the sake of Mr. Zhang, right?

Li Re did have respect for the old man whom he had never met before.

But he must stop - unless he kills himself!

"Of course it's because of you." Qu Shenyin paused again and said, "Three months ago, the leader was defeated and imprisoned by me and the God of War in the imperial capital. Now he was able to escape from prison and make a comeback. It is suspected that there is a shadow of the international illegal organization 'House of Evolution' behind him. Although it is not clear what your relationship is with the House of Evolution, they seem to be coming for you-"

"So, the leader and the military god, the former master and disciple, and now the enemy, are targeting me at the same time?" Li Re finally understood! He knew clearly that this was the reason why the woman in front of him specially invited him here - not only to "deal with the winner", but also because Li Re could not avoid this incident no matter where he was, so instead of letting him know nothing, it would be better to invite him to participate directly!

“But don’t worry, you are the first one I targeted, and I won’t let anyone else snatch you away.” Qu Shenyin spread her hands apart and placed them on her crossed knees. She lifted her smooth chin with the back of her hands, narrowed her eyes, smiled confidently, and said, “Although this incident is related to the House of Evolution, it is essentially due to our poor supervision. After this matter is over, our General Affairs Office will also give you a sufficiently generous reward - with the savings of more than half a year, you will have no problem getting items below C-level!”

Li Re squinted at the man in front of him and thought, if you were really confident, you wouldn't have specifically told me about this matter... However, although he had a premonition, he didn't expect that this time the "God of War" would be involved. Li Re couldn't help but look forward to the next development.

"In short, let's not talk about the 'God of War' for now. That old man is always steady and will definitely not do anything to you. But next time, you will most likely be visited by the 'Leader'. Even if you have the ability to protect yourself, you don't have to worry, but you still have to be on guard..."

Qu Shenyin said this, and added at the end: "I don't want the guy I like to be torn to pieces by those mad dogs, okay?"

"I really hope so, but it should be difficult--" Li Re responded indifferently.

These words finally fell.

The entire top floor of the building fell into silence.

After a while,

Accompanied by a crisp ringing sound of a telephone, Qu Shenyin opened his eyes and glanced at the seat opposite the table which had been empty for an unknown period of time. He then glanced at the incoming call information on the phone on the table and couldn't help but smile.

"The old man finally couldn't help but come over..."

"Too."

"After all, he is the 'disciple' he brought from another world!"

She thought so but didn't pick up the phone. She just watched the phone light up and then quickly go out again and return to silence.

Chapter 267: Insomniac Antis, the second day's meeting

The next day, the morning sun shone brightly on the shell of the Magic City International Hotel. In the hotel room, Antis, lying on the mattress, slowly opened his eyes and glanced at the time on the electronic clock hanging on the wall. He then looked at the bright sun outside the window and couldn't help but let out a breath - he rubbed the dark circles on his face with a helpless look on his face.

Sometimes being too sensitive isn't a good thing.

She couldn't help thinking so, and thought to herself that if she had known yesterday, she would not have booked the room next to the one of "Little Sword Fairy" Cheng Shiyu - although not sleeping for a whole night is nothing for a bronze-level mystery player, that kind of mental torture is truly painful!

Yes, mental torture! Just like yesterday when he accidentally ran into Li Re and Cheng Shiyu in the cabin on the plane... Yesterday, after finishing his conversation with Qu Shenyin, Li Re arrived as promised and followed the address that the little sword fairy had given him a long time ago to find this place, so Antis, who lived next door, heard their "decisive battle" again.

And it’s different than being on an airplane.

The cabin of the plane was concealed enough that she could stand outside and wait without being affected at all.

This hotel obviously does not have the shielding effect of that special material.

then...

The blonde girl, wearing a simple and soft nightgown, went to the bathroom, cleaned her clothes briefly and took off her slightly wet underwear. She patted her rosy cheeks and tried hard to forget the dream she had after falling asleep late last night.

If I don't forget, it will be difficult for me to greet Mr. Li Re with a normal expression later!

Antis thought so. After taking a few deep breaths in the bathroom, she finally calmed down her inexplicable restlessness, changed into the uniform of the "captain" in the General Affairs Office and left the room.

But when she walked out of the room, she took another look at the closed door of the next room.

His ears moved slightly as if he heard something again.

My mood, which had just calmed down, couldn't help but become agitated again.

no...

"Let's not wait any longer - they probably won't be able to leave right away anyway, so let's just go downstairs and meet up with Sha Yun and the others, and then head to the General Affairs Office first!"

Antis took a deep breath and made this decision.

...

It was ten and three minutes in the morning, in the capital of Daxia.

The conference room on the 35th floor of the temporary office building of the Imperial Capital General Affairs Office in the Magic City was already full of people when Li Re and "Little Sword Fairy" Cheng Shiyu arrived. The hall was arranged in a circle and spread out vertically and horizontally like a university lecture hall. A huge screen was hung high in front of it, and it was really dark like a blackboard.

Li Re paused in front of the door and glanced around, and found that the people sitting inside were in the same positions as before in the 'spiritual classroom'. The three strongest and most powerful 'captains' and section chiefs were still sitting in the front row, closest to the 'blackboard'.

He tilted his head.

The little sword fairy who stood side by side with Li Re and came hand in hand also tilted his head.

Facing the looks from many 'captains', they suddenly felt a sense of time and space dislocation, as if they were late for class in college... Li Re sighed and thought that this feeling was really familiar, while Sha Yun, who was sitting in the front row with a plump and impressive figure, glanced at the two of them and uttered an inexplicable 'ah' sound.

'Glacier' Leng Yu still had a stern look on his face.

'Ordinary man' Sun Li almost bowed his head in a flattering manner - it seemed that what happened yesterday made him even more in awe of Li Re.

But besides the three of them, there is now another Antis in the front row... The girl with blond hair and blue eyes has an upright posture, her long hair combed into Roman curls falls behind her head, and she looks like she is sitting upright, but her head seems to be moving little by little... Li Re was immediately happy to see this, knowing that she was undoubtedly dozing off!

Chu Qiuliang, who was sitting in the back row, jumped up again: "Cheng Shiyu, you are late!"

"Ok?"

The little sword fairy glared!

"Um... it's good that you're late, it's good that you're late!" The little gangster girl Chu Qiuliang sat down again.

Only then did Cheng Shiyu reveal a look of satisfaction.

Compared to the two of them, the other captains were very quiet... This was in stark contrast to the last spiritual classroom. Obviously, Cheng Shiyu was right, the spiritual classroom would indeed make people immature, and only she and Chu Qiuliang were "consistent"!

Li Re walked forward slowly—and took the lead again and sat down in the front row!

This time no one was surprised but instead looked as if it was a matter of course. Even 'Ice River' Leng Yu just glanced at Li Re who was sitting next to him and said nothing.

Then the next second, Antis suddenly woke up——

"Has the meeting started?" She opened her mouth subconsciously, and when she met the gaze of Li Re next to her, her breathing could not help but stagnate slightly!

"——Mr. Lire?"

"Why are you so startled?" Li Re spread his hands and said, "If someone didn't know, I would think you did something bad!"

Antis wondered if the bad things she did in her dreams counted, but she couldn't say anything about them.

Cheng Shiyu, who was sitting behind Li Re, also looked at Antis, who was obviously in a bad state, with confusion on his face.

That's when.

With a buzzing sound—the screen in front lit up!

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice, and saw the dark screen suddenly clearly reflected a slender figure sitting behind a desk, with black hair and a uniform. The 'General Manager' Qu Shenyin showed her upper body above the desk and smiled, "Good morning, everyone, 'Captains'."

"I'm 'General Manager' Qu Shenyin, long time no see."

Not showing up in person... opting for remote video instead?

Li Re raised his eyebrows and looked up at the ceiling. Antis beside him seemed to see the confusion in Li Re's heart and explained: "This is the style of the general manager's meeting - as a 'ruler', the first thing is to maintain dignity and mystery, and then show favor."

Maintain dignity and mystery...Why doesn't she do this in front of me?

Such confusion was fleeting.

Qu Shenyin on the other side of the screen said again: "What is the purpose of summoning you all this time? I think with your 'eyes and ears', you should have heard more or less-"

"It was the 'Leader' guy who escaped, right?" The voice of 'Ice River' Leng Yu, as cold as his appearance, sounded in a low voice.

Sun Li shook his head with a distressed look on his face: "If you want to escape, then why did you come to the 'Devil's City'..."

"Why else? Isn't it because the next 'fusion plan' is going to be held in the Magic City? We can tell what those guys are up to at a glance!" A tall young captain behind Sun Li said, and then added: "Also, Boss Sun, can you please stop looking so sad all the time? How can I, your former defeated opponent, feel when you do this?"

Upon hearing this, Sun Li just scratched his head and smiled bitterly, looking haggard like a middle-aged man burdened by his career.

"Just a 'leader', an old thing!" The little sister Chu Qiuliang still looked arrogant, as if she had forgotten that she had cowered in front of the little swordsman before.

Li Re looked around and listened to the discussions. He thought that it seemed that he was not the only one who had a special intelligence channel... However, Cheng Shiyu behind him had her eyes wide open and her face full of surprise. It was obviously the first time she heard of it!

"It seems that everyone knows more or less."

Qu Shenyin on the screen folded his hands, lifted his chin and smiled, "If that's the case, then it's easy to handle. As you all said, the release of the leader of the illegal player organization, the 'Leader', from prison is of great importance. His purpose in sneaking into the Magic City is also very clear. He came for our 'Fusion Plan'."

"Now, the 'Fusion Plan' has been launched. Once the replica world begins to move closer to reality, it will be difficult to stop it. In other words, we must find that guy before the 'Fusion Plan' officially begins. Otherwise, if the 'Fusion Plan' goes wrong, the entire Demon City, or even the entire Great Xia Kingdom, may be overturned."

"And now, there are still seven days until the copy actually invades reality!"

"But don't worry, everyone. As you can see, I have invited strong enough foreign aid for this operation!"

'King Ling' Li Re.

If Li Re had only a little fame before, he can now be said to be a well-known top figure in the player circle of the Great Xia Kingdom!

At the end, Qu Shenyin continued: "For the next operation, I will also stay in the rear like last time... All operations will be led by him."

"From now on, Li Re will temporarily represent me - all your actions will be directed by him!"

Everyone was silent. Sha Yun even turned her head slightly to glance at Li Re. She felt that the general manager was "building momentum" for Li Re.

Li Re didn't care at all.

This was already said yesterday - after discussing the relationship between the God of War and the leader!

He could actually understand Qu Shenyin's plan——

Although he had been targeted by the Leader because of the House of Evolution, he was a new player who had emerged in the past three months, and he did not have as much information as other veteran players. Therefore, it would be more effective for him to take charge than for Qu Shenyin to take charge himself - especially when he had been targeted by the Leader.

but...

If I am in charge, then all 'insurance' will have to give way to me... Li Re thought so and couldn't help but smile while looking at Qu Shenyin on the screen!

So next.

"Everyone, get out and search the whole city for 'illegal players'!" Li Re leaned back in his seat with an arrogant look on his face. He issued the order without hesitation or politeness, saying so!

Chapter 268 The Second "Foreign Aid"

As Li Re finished speaking, the spacious conference room, which was like a university classroom, fell into a long silence. The bright incandescent lamps overhead cast soft lights, illuminating the faces of every cleaning section chief who was a "captain" in the General Affairs Office. They looked at each other, feeling somewhat bewildered.

How could they not look at each other in bewilderment? This meeting hadn't even officially started yet - and they were already taking action?

Don't say it's anyone else.

Even Antis and the others were a little stunned...

With a bang! Suddenly, there was a slightly sharp sound of tables and chairs being pushed away and rubbing against the floor. Everyone looked over and saw Leng Yu, who looked stern, standing up and walking out directly!

At this time, the "General Manager" Qu Shenyin on the screen also spoke.

She smiled and said, "Everyone, let's get started."

"This is my order, right?"

Everyone remained silent, but since the 'General Manager' had spoken personally, they could only follow 'Ice River' Leng Yu and walk outside, including Antis and Cheng Shiyu, because they were also 'captains' after all... But when they stepped out of the door, 'Jifeng Shayun' who was walking in the front suddenly turned around and glanced at Li Re who was still sitting in his seat, with her eyes slightly lowered and looking quite 'kind', as if she was thinking about something.

And as the 'captains' left one after another.

The meeting room also fell silent.

Only Li Re was left sitting there, and Qu Shenyin on the screen...

"Everyone has left." The young general manager on the screen narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at Li Re through the screen, and opened his red lips slightly to speak again.

She tilted her head and said, "It seems that you already have a plan on how to implement it?"

"Yes, but it's hard to say." Li Re sat up straight and spread his hands in response. He looked at the general manager on the screen and said in a low voice without any politeness: "We have to wait until the 'person' arrives!"

This sentence fell.

Qu Shenyin narrowed her eyes slightly.

As expected, a steady sound of footsteps was heard again in the corridor outside the conference room door... Only to see Leng Yu, the 'Ice River' who had just left first, appeared outside the door. The tall and stern young man glanced at Li Re who was sitting alone, nodded silently, and sat back in his seat.

Then it was Sun Li's turn. The head of the cleaning department in Magic City first bowed to Qu Shenyin on the screen, then showed a flattering look to Li Re, and followed closely back to his seat.

After that, there was 'Swift Wind' Sha Yun, 'Archer' Chu Qiuliang, 'Silver Moon Knight' Antis, 'Little Sword Fairy' Cheng Shiyu...

"Why are you back again?"
