Chapter 398 The spark that Dinghai chose was you.

Zhao Shuying had a feeling that something must have happened to Yu Xunge. Whether it was the sudden dimming of Tu Lan's dragon scales or Yu Xunge's behavior, everything about him seemed strange.

Finally, the murmurs started up next door again, and soon after, she received a message asking her and a few others to go to the main conference room.

"Go find Yu Xunge, we need her help."

"Close the instance's light curtain?"

"No." On the other side of the screen, Yu Zhaohai was sitting on the reef, her robes still stained with blood. She said, "You form a team, take all the [Cut & Paste] skill crystals stored inside Dinghai, and go to steal the underwater dungeon light curtain."

"Tonight is the second time it will strike. You should set off tomorrow morning. Let her lead the team. Go out for five days and bring back as much as you can."

Zhao Shuying asked, "What kind of compensation will she receive?"

These instance light curtains, when placed underwater, become wild instance dungeons. Yu Xunge can go there anytime, whether to level up or to collect Radiant Offerings before entering the arena. The rewards are not low. Once you snatch them and place them in Dinghai, they become Dinghai's territory.

Why did she choose to cooperate with Dinghai?

Yu Xunge selling the rooftop instance light screen was already a signal that she no longer needed Dinghai's protection.

She couldn't think of anything about Dinghai that could move her.

Yu Zhaohai said, "She will agree, Li Changying."

Upon hearing her name called, Li Changying placed the items she had just received via email on the table.

Zhao Shuying and several of her colleagues looked over at the same time and were all stunned. It was... a mahjong tile?

Someone asked curiously, "What kind of prop is this?"

Li Changying explained, "It is said to be a kind of certificate, but in fact, we don't know much about it. We don't know what it is used for... We only know that it is very precious, and Yu Xunge needs it."

"Actually, we started investigating 'Spark' a long time ago. Even without the underwater dungeon light screen, we were looking for an opportunity to give it to her."

"She is the best choice."

“We had already placed our bet on her the moment we invited her to the tower.”

The middle-aged leaders next to Li Changying nodded in agreement, their faces showing a calm and confident air, as if they had expected this.

Zhao Shuying thought to herself, "Then why were you banging on the table and arguing so enthusiastically just now?"

Li Changying sighed. He could see the hidden dissatisfaction in Zhao Shuying. Zhao Shuying had changed since they returned from the tower.

She seemed to have seen through the essence of many things and the tricks of those in power. She might still be passionate, but she had clearly lost some patience.

Whether it's her or Yu Xunge, no, it can be said that almost all irreplaceable powerhouses, as their strength grows, will begin to question power, question justice, question Dinghai's original intentions, and question these old guys.

Because the leaders who occupied leadership positions in the early stages of the game's invasion were no longer as capable as these favored children, he had a premonition that even if he continued to protect these kids, he wouldn't be far from being laid off.

Times have truly changed.

Perhaps in Dinghai, only Yu Zhaohai, who possesses SS-level talent and constantly pushes himself to the limit through high-intensity training, can keep these young powerhouses in check.

He pointed two fingers at the mahjong tile and pushed it in front of Zhao Shuying. Looking at Zhao Shuying and the players standing behind her, he sighed, "We have indeed discussed and investigated for a long time."

Every time a meeting is held to discuss how to deal with those players who are too outstanding, the atmosphere within Dinghai becomes tense for a while. With each player in a vulnerable position, the young people worry that Dinghai might take action against them one day.

But to these old guys who have seen too much of human nature, these players who possess such destructive power in a short period of time could easily cause a major disaster if they are not careful.

When a person with an unstable temperament suddenly gains world-destroying power, the danger is no less than that of a high-level boss. How could they not be wary?

Yu Zhaohai's voice came through the video again.

"We found a total of 9 sparks."

"Some of them value power and fame too much. Once they have power, they become obsessed with building their own forces, fearing that if they are a step behind, they will not be able to become king."

"Some people are too sentimental. They can't be called saints, but they always have many people and many things on their minds. They have to think carefully about every decision, afraid of losing one thing for another. They want to get involved in every injury or death, big or small, and bear too many responsibilities that don't belong to them."

"Some people... are so engrossed in games that they're busy with love affairs, I can't be bothered to talk about them."

"In short, the closer they get to the worldly definition of 'good,' the stronger their sense of morality becomes. They weigh everything, strive for perfection in everything, and examine themselves in everything. They judge themselves alongside those insignificant ordinary people..."

“But this is war. We don’t need saints or good people. What we need are ‘weapons’.”

Zhao Shuying placed the bill of 70,000 on the table and pushed it in front of Yu Xunge, repeating Yu Zhaohai's words.

"In short, she could be a very good bad guy, or a not-so-good good guy."

"She may not trust us, and may even hate us, but she cannot be a bully who only dares to be ruthless to her own people. She can be both gentle and firm in her methods. She can have a temper, but unless necessary, she will not use overly cruel and cold-blooded methods against her compatriots."

"Her vision should be broader and wider, it should be focused on Zelan, it should be focused on this war, instead of only seeing China, only seeing the power or wealth of a city, or even racking her brains to compete and fight against Dinghai."

"We are of the same kind, not mortal enemies."

"Whatever the reason, she is charging forward every minute and every second, unstoppable, like the sharpest point of an arrow, tearing a path for us, and then we will lead the world to follow."

"And the spark that Dinghai chose is you, Yu Xunge."

That was such a cheesy thing to say, Yu Xunge shuddered and asked, "So this thing was given to me for free?"

She eagerly reached out to try and take the World Tomb.

Zhao Shuying was momentarily speechless, the touching atmosphere instantly shattered. She pressed down hard on the [70,000] token and quickly said, "Escort our Dinghai team to the underwater search area to retrieve the instance light curtain. Five days!"

Yu Xunge reached out and forcefully pried the 70,000 yuan note from Zhao Shuying's hand. Zhao Shuying tried to struggle, but Tu Lan flew over and pinned her down.

With the acquisition of 70,000 honor points, her honor points immediately increased by 10,000. Combined with the honor points she had previously collected from the World Tomb and the small amount of honor points she had gained from events such as the Arena, her honor points had now reached an extremely terrifying 103,050!
