"Who is listening to us, and why?"

"It's probably artificial intelligence. As for why they're listening to us, nobody knows."

The beautifully dressed registrar pointed to Yuan Chuyi's bulge and said, "Are you planning to keep talking to me like this?"

Yuan Chuyi glanced down at herself, now stripped down to only her underwear, and quickly picked up her clothes from the ground and put them on.

They also asked, "Who are you? Why did you choose me?"

"We chose you because you are an outsider."

"You mean you can't trust anyone here?"

"Hmph... 40% are robots, how can I believe that? Believe in luck?"

What is your purpose in contacting me?

"Cooperation is necessary because there are only two types of people who come here: those who come because of its reputation and want to live here, and those who come specifically for the mineral crystals."

“You’re really direct,” Yuan Chuyi said.

"It has always been this way, because the time that belongs to oneself here is limited."

Yuan Chuyi shrugged. "Excuse me, I came here intending to live here. I'm even planning to buy a house here."

Before Yuan Chu could finish speaking, the beautiful registrar got up and left, saying, "I'm sorry, I'm not interested in what kind of house you're looking for. Since we're not on the same wavelength, I'll be going now. Sorry for bothering you."

After speaking, the beautiful registrar opened the door and left without looking back.

"Hmph, is this a ploy to lure me in?" Yuan Chuyi thought to herself as she activated her invisibility skill, opened the door, and followed them.

The registrar swayed her slender waist as she pressed the elevator button.

"So it wasn't a game of playing hard to get, he was serious." Then he appeared in a corner and said, "Hey, beautiful, let's chat some more."

Just as the pretty registrar was about to enter the elevator, Yuan Chuyi's voice rang out from the corner.

"Okay, let's go back to the room and continue." As they walked, he muttered to himself, "You seemed to be in good health, but who knew you were so useless."

Yuan Chuyi knew the woman was putting on an act again and didn't argue. Only after they returned to the room did Yuan Chuyi finally speak, asking, "How many mineral crystals are there here?"

"Enough to supply the entire Tianyuan Continent for a hundred years."

"Where did the Heavenly Punishment Empire get so many mineral crystals?"

The pretty registrar rolled her eyes and said, "I'm referring to this Heavenly Punishment City No. 1, not the entire Heavenly Punishment Empire."

"Since we wasted too much time today, the bracelet might be restored at any time. We'll meet here in three days." After saying that, the female registrar gave out a coordinate.

"One last question, can this bracelet be removed?"

"Yes, you can remove it by force, but before you remove it, the bracelet will release a toxin into your body."

And to this day, there is no cure for this poison.

"There's still time, why don't you tell me more about this place?" Yuan Chuyi asked tentatively.

The pretty registrar rolled her eyes at Yuan Chuyi. "I meant my time is almost up. Remember to get into the zone faster next time, so as not to waste my time."

After saying that, she waved and left the room.

By the time Yuan Chuyi understood what she meant, the beautiful registrar had already left the room.

"Damn, it turns out I'm the one who wasted time."

A short while later, when Yuan Chu saw the flashing red dot on the bracelet, he knew that the bracelet had started its function again.

Then, belatedly, he realized he had forgotten to check her bracelet code.

"I must write down her bracelet number next time."

He then lay in bed thinking about some of the information the registrar had just revealed.

"Artificial intelligence, no, she meant artificial intelligence, which means she's not sure if it's artificial intelligence either."

The toxins released by the bracelet remain untreated to this day, and I don't know if my antidote will be able to counteract them.

Yuan Chu was afraid that the bracelet might suddenly release toxins again, so he took out a bottle of antidote and drank it. After pausing for a moment, he took out another bottle of antidote and drank it.

"Just to be on the safe side, I'll have two bottles. A robot, and with a 40% chance of getting off, that's interesting. Looks like the person who checked me in was a robot."

“Mineral crystals, artificial intelligence, robots, this Heavenly Punishment Empire is indeed full of mysteries.”

The third day arrived quickly, and Yuan Chuyi drove the hovercar toward the address given by the registrar.

After driving for more than an hour, he watched as the bright spot on his wristband disappeared. "It seems that this wristband also has a distance limit, otherwise why would they choose such a far location?"

The car then entered a mountain range, and after driving around for a while, Yuan Chuyi stopped the car at the entrance of what looked like an abandoned mine.

He looked at the coordinates displayed on the car and said, "That's right, this is the place."

Just as he was wondering if it was inside a mine, a small pink hovercar came out.

Yuan Chuyi followed the pink hovercar into the cave. When the vehicle stopped in a spacious underground plaza, Yuan Chuyi got out and greeted, "Hi, beautiful, we meet again."

"It seems you've already figured it out."

"What did you find?"

The registrar shook his wristband. "Let's go, we've got quite a few people here today."

Yuan Chuyi followed the beautiful registrar to a conference room that was 100 meters in size.

“You Li, is this the person you’ve been waiting for?” asked a burly man who was two meters tall.

"So your name is You Li, that's a very nice name," Yuan Chuyi said.

Instead of responding, You Li said, "Sit next to me, and we'll begin when the chairman arrives."

The burly man who had just greeted him, seeing that You Li ignored him, went over to Yuan Chuyi on his own. "Brother, which country are you from?"

Yuan Chuyi thought for a moment and made up a story: "I'm from an island nation."

"An island nation? Never heard of it. It's probably one or two-star countries, isn't it? Hahaha..."

After laughing loudly, the burly man saw that no one was echoing his words, and then returned to his seat, feeling bored.

"Are you really from the island nation?" Yuri asked from the side.

Yuan Chuyi was startled. "Could it be that this woman has been to Earth or that there really is an island nation on Tianyuan Continent?"

“Of course,” Yuan Chuyi continued, making up a story.

How could Yuan Chuyi possibly reveal Kuina's country? He knew he was here to steal mineral crystals, and who knew what this organization was really up to?

"What star system is that country?" Yu Li asked.

Yuan Chuyi pretended to think and said, "It should be counted as seven or eight stars."

Yu Li said irritably, "Fine, don't tell me then."

Yuan Chuyi nudged You Li with her elbow again, "Does that big oaf have a thing for you? The way he looks at you makes it seem like he wants to eat you up."

"Who knows? We only had one close encounter."

"You dumped him?" Yuan Chuyi asked like a curious child.

"What? I dumped him? He's just like you, he only came here three months ago. In the city, the only way to get in touch is through that kind of method, you know."

Looking at Yuan Chuyi's eyes, You Li quickly added, "It's just that unlike you, he didn't persist for so long to trigger the bracelet. He only persisted for 30 seconds before the bracelet went out."

She's been clinging to me ever since.
