Re-live your life and start speedrunning

The little sword fairy Cheng Shiyu who was pulled back by Antis blinked her eyes. After returning to her seat, she looked at Li Re who was sitting in the front row with a confused look on her face, not knowing what he was doing.

"That's right, didn't they say we were going to search the entire city?" Chu Qiuliang also jumped up and said, "Although this mission is a bit outrageous, I think it's great - with so many 'captains' like us, wouldn't it be better to just use force to defeat the enemy?"

"It's rare that you still have some brains!" The little sword fairy showed an expression that showed that the child was teachable.

Antis in the front row looked at these two funny guys with a helpless look on his face.

Sha Yun gathered her long hair in front of her forehead and just looked at Li Re.

Li Re happened to look at her, and then he looked around at the people around him: "It seems that these are the only ones..."

"What do you mean?" The little sword fairy tilted his head.

"Literally." Li Re knocked on the table and smiled, "Although there is no guarantee, it will come back... We should all be trustworthy!"

"Huh!?" Cheng Shiyu blinked her eyes as if she understood but also as if she didn't understand.

Sha Yun said softly: "Is that really the case..."

"I never thought that even our internal staff can't be trusted now!" Sun Li scratched his messy hair with a worried look on his face, and his worry became even deeper when he saw the remaining hair on his hands.

Leng Yu, whose character remains the same as always, is still very frugal with words: "There is a traitor."

"Yes, there is a traitor." Li Re nodded gently. "If it weren't for this, the location of the 'Integration Plan' that was directly formulated by the General Affairs Office and issued to the section chief who was nominally the captain of the General Affairs Office would not be known to those illegal players so easily!"

As the action progresses, the 'Fusion Plan' itself is no longer a secret in the domestic gaming community.

But the specific implementation of the plan remains absolutely confidential.

But now, illegal players can enter the 'Magic City' at this juncture before the plan officially starts... The only possibility is that the 'Captain' has been infiltrated!

"Sure enough, is that why you issued the order just now?" The 'Silver Moon Knight' Antis straightened his back and said: "Use this order to 'lure' the suspected traitor out so that we can start the formal combat meeting?"

"Yes." Li Re said confidently: "Now the 'ghost' must be busy passing on the 'secret' that I am taking over the leadership of this operation to the 'leader', right? This is 'big news'!"

"Let's not talk about the others, but that 'ghost' will never come back here - even if he realizes that this might be a 'trap', this is his only chance - of course, even if he has concerns in his heart, he will never come back, after all..."

As these words fell, a tall, pitch-black shadow suddenly appeared behind Li Re. The shadow stood tall and opened its third eye on its forehead. At the same time, an inexplicable force emerged in the minds of everyone present!

Although the black shadow only flashed for a moment and quickly disappeared like an illusion, Leng Yu's expression still changed slightly. Sun Li thought that this guy was becoming more and more terrifying. Sha Yun narrowed her eyes slightly and felt that this man was becoming more and more weird and unpredictable.

Antis and Cheng Shiyu didn't show much reaction, only Chu Qiuliang was shocked!

What Li Re used was the meaningless supernatural power of an evil spirit - or in other words, the power of the soul core 'deceiving ghost' driven by the magic image!

Under this magical situation, everyone will follow what they think is the most appropriate thing to do without any hesitation or worry!

This is a conspiracy, but also an 'open conspiracy'.

Li Re was not afraid of being guessed.

He was not surprised that everyone present could figure out their purpose... After all, they were all elites among the 'captains'... Well, except for a certain 'little sword fairy' who just now seemed to have realized something!

"He used his abilities to take advantage of the situation and lure out the 'traitor'...what a scary man!" Sha Yun commented.

"But in this case, won't there be too few people?" Antis spoke again, and she looked around.

Including Li Re himself and Qu Shenyin, who had been letting Li Re handle everything on the screen from the beginning, there were only eight people on the scene, and Cheng Shiyu and Chu Qiuliang were brought over by Antis and Sha Yun...

Li Re put away the magic image and sighed, thinking divergently, three men and five women, there are more yin than yang... Maybe this is the 'fate' of supernatural players?

This kind of "pain" can only be borne by oneself!

"It's better to have fewer people. If there are too many people, it will easily lead to chaos!" He responded while thinking. If there are too many people, it will be difficult for him to take all the "crises" into his hands. This is also a factor in why he led people out!

not to mention...

"In fact, there are more than just us."

"What do you think, Mr. General Manager?"

"Hmm?" Qu Shenyin on the screen said in a subconsciously confused tone, then laughed, "Your Excellency the Spiritual King can't be fooled."

"Indeed - in addition to you guys, I did find other 'foreign aid'."

"According to the time, it should be almost time—"

This is what Qu Shenyin said.

next second.

The air in the open space at the front of the conference room, in front of the screen and facing the door, suddenly vibrated and hummed. Then, visible wrinkles appeared invisibly, like ripples on a lake. Two figures, one in front and one behind, gradually solidified from nothing.

The sound of the joint gears turning was heard immediately.

The 'captains' who stayed at the scene were all slightly startled as they looked at the figure standing in the front... It was actually a 'magic puppet' made of wood, its body was not big, even a little petite, and its whole body was wrapped in a black cloak, dressed like a magician, but the exposed wooden joints between its five fingers showed that it was not a real person.

That is...

"President of the Children of the Stars Guild, Vivian Alice, nice to meet you."

A clear and pleasant voice came from under the brim of the puppet's cloak.

The President of the Children of the Stars...Alice Vivian? The Great Magician! ?

Everyone was stunned again when they heard this.

There is basically no official staff who is unaware of the title of 'Great Magic Wizard'... They have also all read the conjectures he wrote about the composition of the paradise.

The Sons of the Stars are even more famous within the Great Xia Nation and are the top civilian player union organization.

And this mysterious president of a folk guild and a great magic wizard with deep ties to the officialdom...are actually the same person?

No wonder they were surprised!

Only the little sword fairy Cheng Shiyu waved at the puppet with a smug smile. She had a good relationship with Alice Vivian and had expected this!

However, when everyone was paying attention to the identity of the puppet, Li Re also looked at the puppet and thought that the 'great magic wizard' was really the president of the Sons of the Stars Guild. He had a good memory and remembered that Lao Hu had said before that their guild president was mysterious and had a good relationship with the official. From the description, he sounded like a mysterious player.

He felt that they were very similar the last time they met in person - just as mysterious, not liking to show up in their true form but preferring to hide behind the scenes, and just as having a good relationship with the official.

With all these factors combined, the probability of it being the same person is indeed quite high.

That's when.

The person behind the 'magic puppet' stopped and looked around in amazement before speaking -

"Fuck, Li Re? Why is it you again?" He looked straight at Li Re with horror on his face!

Li Re was not surprised to hear this and could not help but laugh:

"Hey, see you again, Old Hu!"

Chapter 269: The Magic Wizard's Conjecture: Using the Force of Others to Fight Against Them

On the other side, in the office of the General Manager on the top floor of the building, which was only separated from the conference room by a wall, Qu Shenyin, who was sitting behind the desk, looked at the meeting picture displayed on the screen, put down his hands, narrowed his light purple eyes, looked to the side and whispered:

"You're just going to go out with this 'doll'?"

"Is one doll not enough?" An equally young and clear voice responded to Qu Shenyin. The figure sitting on the other side of her seat, which was not included in the screen, slowly opened his eyes that were glowing with a mysterious blue light. His light grey short hair swayed gently as he opened his eyes, revealing his delicate and clean face and a pair of eyes that still had light dark circles under them.

This person was wearing a dark and heavy magician's robe, which covered her slender body wrapped in a clean lining and a long skirt. Her legs stretched out from under the skirt and were placed crosswise, but there was nothing under the skirt. She was sitting in the air, and at the same time, she was staring at the blue crystal ball floating in front of her. She responded to Qu Shenyin's words over there, and said without raising her head: "This 'magic puppet' is my masterpiece. Normal bronze-level players can't even break through its defense!"

Hearing such confident words, Qu Shenyin said "Oh": "Hearing you say that, I would like to give it a try?"

"Forget it - you're not some 'ordinary' bronze player!"

The young magician rolled her eyes and finally couldn't help but look up at Qu Shenyin: "I even suspect that you have secretly obtained the silver authority! After all, even when you fought that extremely ugly angel last time, you didn't really use your full strength, right? Of the eight super powers, you only used one, 'Assimilation'."

"But with your arrogant and conceited personality, who knows how arrogant you will be once you get the Silver Authority. You won't go to such lengths to plot and hide here just to deal with a 'leader'!"

"Maybe I really got it? And in your eyes, I was hiding here just to deal with the 'leader'?" Qu Shenyin turned his face with a smile.

"Isn't it? It's impossible that he was tied up just to help Li Re get to the top? That guy won't be attracted by something like power!" Vivian responded as a matter of course.

"He really won't - otherwise, he wouldn't have challenged me directly as a Black Iron-level player!" Qu Shenyin nodded in agreement, but added: "But it doesn't matter."

"Sooner or later, I will let him know how powerful I am!"

The great magic wizard couldn't help but roll his eyes when listening to Qu Shenyin's self-talk: "You are such an arrogant person, you haven't changed at all! And this way of conquering is too simple and direct!"

"Hmm? Simple and direct are useful, and strength is the root of the survival of all things, right? And what I need is not some useless thing that will only follow behind me, but someone who can fight alongside me."

Qu Shenyin smiled nonchalantly, and then turned her gaze to the crystal ball in front of the other party. The surface of the ball with a faint blue glow showed the conference room from the perspective of the 'magic puppet'. She paused for a moment before continuing, "But speaking of it, you, the puppet, are indeed very special."

"But why do I feel that you are afraid of 'Li Re'? You don't dare to appear in front of that guy directly... Deputy Director of the General Affairs Office, Miss Alice?" The young lady from the General Affairs Office held up her chin with both hands and spoke.

Hearing this, Alice seemed to have thought of something and subconsciously choked and her cheeks puffed up slightly. She said insincerely, as if she had thought of something: "Don't talk nonsense, I'm not afraid of that guy..."

After seeing what happened in the illusion last time, there should be no one who is not afraid of that guy... Thinking of this, Alice looked at Qu Shenyin beside her and suddenly rolled her eyes and said inexplicably:

"Perhaps you are the one who should be afraid!"

"Huh? Why should I be afraid?" Qu Shenyin blinked and looked a little curious.

Alice didn't respond, but suddenly revealed a very bright smile - a smile that was quite...expectant?

What was she expecting?

...

at the same time.

In the conference room, with the appearance of the 'Great Magic Wizard' Vivian Alice, the scene fell into silence for a while. Although there was an episode in which the follower she brought with her suddenly swore at the 'Spirit King', seeing Li Re smiling and greeting that person nonchalantly, the other captains knew that this person was obviously an old acquaintance of Li Re, so they didn't say much.

He just looked at the 'boss' who was also sitting in the front row at this moment, and then looked at Li Re who was still sitting there with a smile on his face. However, Old Hu who was standing behind the magic doll had a depressed and unhappy look on his face!

Nothing good happens every time he meets Li Re... He has confirmed this countless times.

Let’s leave the first trial mission aside for now.

The same thing happened in the last Super Power World mission - although they escaped the siege at the beginning because of Li Re, after that, if it weren't for Li Re's reckless behavior, this group of players might have encountered a siege, but they would never have been treated so severely!

And now...

"It seems that after you were promoted to bronze, you were 're-employed' and became your boss' bodyguard!"

Li Re said something to him quite casually.

Well... Lao Hu touched his face, which had become thicker and thicker than the beard during the Black Iron period, and sighed, knowing that he was a little emotional. Thinking about it carefully, it was not Li Re's fault for those things that happened before. In fact, it was all thanks to Li Re that he was able to escape danger every time.

Otherwise, he would not be able to become a bronze rank, let alone be promoted by the guild to become a 'cadre'. Now he can follow the 'boss' to participate in such a meeting that is obviously very important!

Not to mention that the other party is now a well-known 'Spirit King'!

Even if he is not known throughout the country, he is at least a big name in the official player circle.

So Lao Hu could only smile.

At last, Li Re suddenly said to Vivian Alice: "Also, great magic wizard, we meet again!"

"?!"

Have they met?

Old Hu was stunned.

The other official players were also stunned.

However, Cheng Shiyu smiled and waved at Alice behind Li Re.

At this time, Alice, who was sitting down, slowly raised the gorgeous blue eyes of the puppet hidden under the hood and spoke again: "Indeed, we meet again."

"Mr. Li Re, Shi Yu."

Her tone was flat and her pauses were very slow and deliberate, as if this was how she should be.

Are you old acquaintances of the Spirit King and the Little Sword Immortal? The other players were silent.

"This is really surprising - the famous 'Great Magic Wizard' lady." Sha Yun said with a sidelong glance.

Sun Li scratched his hair for the umpteenth time: "I always feel a little uneasy sitting here, just like an ordinary person like me!"

The little gangster Chu Qiuliang didn't say anything, but just looked at Alice's magic doll thoughtfully.

"Enough of the small talk." 'Ice River' Leng Yu said indifferently: "Let's talk business!"

It's time to get down to business.

"Then let's get down to business!" Li Re said, "Since the magic wizard is here, let's start with you!"

Alice Vivian nodded slightly. Seeing that everyone around her was looking over, the puppet hidden under the hood spoke again: "Regarding this incident, I have already sorted it out before coming here."

"Currently, under the influence of the paradise anchor point previously set up by the Magic City, the coordinates of the copy world that is slowly approaching the reality are (06,05,09). The distances in each dimension are all within ten. In other words, it is already very, very close!"
