Chapter 36
There were footsteps outside the door. It was Lucian. His voice was muffled through the door. He said, "I heard from Gru that you've been staying in your room since you came back from outside. Did something happen? Can you tell me?"
Lucian, as attentive as ever, came over after noticing something was amiss. Jiang Fei tucked the piece of paper into the drawer, then stood up and walked to the door, opening it. She looked slightly exhausted as she said, "I met their leader at their gathering place."
Hearing Jiang Fei's words, Lucian's originally smiling expression gradually became extremely solemn. He said, "Did you meet the leader of that mysterious organization? How did you..."
Jiang Fei interrupted him and said, "I know you must want to ask me why I didn't tell others. I did so for my own reasons."
"This is not something you should bear alone. We are a collective, and the risks should be borne by the collective."
That was true, but out of caution, Jiang Fei did not tell Lucian about the leader of the mysterious organization who had tried to win her over.
Jiang Fei's identity does not belong to this world, and she has not told others about it so far. Of course, it is not ruled out that some smart people can guess her identity through some clues.
Lucian sighed. "You're always like this... taking everything on yourself."
It wasn't as exaggerated as he said. Jiang Fei raised an eyebrow and said, "Since you said so, it would be unreasonable for me not to give you some tasks."
Lucian nodded. He had no resistance to the job that Jiang Fei was about to assign to him. Before Jiang Fei came to this base, in addition to going out on field missions with the team, he was also responsible for the clerical work of the base, so he had long been accustomed to this kind of life.
"Then please assign the tasks."
The tasks assigned by Jiang Fei are not only related to this base, but also to the new base that has been taken over.
Because of the sudden incidents that occurred one after another in the dungeon during this period, Sky City had to strengthen its management and monitoring of the dungeon.
Sky City's attitude towards the Underground City has changed tremendously, and the real reflection of this is the increase in the number of Sky City soldiers inside each base.
Even the base where Jiang Fei is located has soldiers from Sky City, but because their base is too remote, these soldiers from Sky City cannot arrive here for a while.
Lucian said that the people sent by Sky City, especially the captain of that team, had not arrived here yet, but the news had been passed here in advance. The content of the information was an order requiring the person in charge of the base to compile all the data of the base during this period and hand it over to him in a timely manner.
Lucian's face lit up with disdain as he spoke of this. "Those Sky City people always think highly of themselves and take it for granted that they're the ones ordering the Dungeon people around. Are we born to be Sky City's slaves?"
Jiang Fei recalled what the leader of the mysterious organization had said to her. Perhaps that mysterious man also wanted to change the world? But his purpose was hard to fathom.
Jiang Fei said, "Then let's finish the data aggregation first."
