"Duncan...you don't want your undercover identity to be discovered, do you?"
Prior to this, during his job interview at Oasis Shipping, and when he first started working at the company.
Duncan has been investigated and questioned multiple times about whether he is a corporate spy sent by a rival company.
Having answered similar questions countless times, Duncan had long since become accustomed to maintaining composure and calmness.
But now, upon hearing Gu Xinghe's question...
Duncan, however, still acted like a rookie who would be at a loss once he was exposed.
His back was instantly soaked with cold sweat.
However, this is the reason why he behaved differently than before.
It wasn't because of the imposing presence or sense of oppression emanating from the person in front of them, who was clearly of extremely high status and position.
Because when he looked up at the young man in front of him.
He didn't actually sense any danger from the person in front of him.
It was as if the person in front of him no longer existed in his sight.
It's as if he's actually in the safest environment where he can completely relax.
But it seems that at a deeper level, under the influence of factors he could not perceive or sense.
Something had infiltrated his body without him even realizing it.
This allowed him to make his most authentic performance in this environment where he "did not perceive any danger".
At this moment, Duncan could only control his thoughts and prevent them from wandering, and he also had to keep his expression from showing any unusual behavior.
At this moment, he recalled the time when he first entered this instance, [White Star Shipping].
At that moment, he was overwhelmed by the shock and despair he felt about the mission—
Main Mission: Infiltrate Oasis Corporation as a [corporate spy] to steal intelligence about the Ocean Oasis for White Star Corporation.
[Mission Completion Reward: Platinum Star Luxury Yacht and 5% Shares in White Star Line]
Side Quest 1: Investigate the true cause of the disappearance and sinking of the Ocean Oasis.
[Reward for completing the mission: ???]
Side Quest 2: Uncover the Real Secret Behind Oasis Corporation's Rapid Rise
[Reward for completing the mission: ???]
At the time, the mission in this instance was so shocking to him, it was shocking in a way that didn't care about his life or death.
But no matter what, he gritted his teeth and made up his mind to attend the job interview at Oasis Company.
During his interview for Oasis Company, he had already been questioned multiple times about whether he worked for a rival company.
Because Oasis and White Star have been rivals for a long time, even though they are on high alert, each other's influence has already infiltrated the other's territory.
Fortunately, his background information as a player in this world is quite clean.
They had never even had any contact with the White Star Corporation before.
It was only after entering this instance that I received this corporate spy instance mission directly from the game system.
It wasn't until he joined the company that he realized why Oasis Corporation had such strict employee screening procedures.
At that time, the Oasis of the Seas was missing, and the resulting panic caused a large number of internal staff to leave.
White Star Corporation also wanted to take this opportunity to send its own people into Oasis and find out the current situation of the other party.
Thus, at this critical juncture when Oasis Company was in a slump and facing a crisis.
Duncan, who joined Oasis Company, also took this opportunity to portray himself as an ambitious and capable newcomer.
I hope that I can be given more important roles and gain more useful information here.
In the process, Duncan, who had killed his other colleagues, did indeed gain the attention of his department head, Doto.
It also conveyed a great deal of information about the Ocean Oasis to the White Star Line.
Among these, the news that the Ocean Oasis had indeed lost contact and sunk was actually passed on to the White Star Corporation by him.
About two weeks ago, Oasis Corporation discovered that it had lost contact with the Ocean Oasis.
Several days later, after multiple unsuccessful attempts to contact the company member, they were able to do so.
Then they discovered that the company's founder, Murdoch, had also disappeared.
It was at this time that news began to spread that Murdoch had absconded with the money and secretly taken the Oasis of the Seas with him.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, White Star Corporation attempted to infiltrate Oasis Corporation with a large number of its own spies.
Meanwhile, Oasis Company, which had lost contact with the Ocean Oasis for several days, also decided to send a ship.
Then we went to the location where the Oasis of the Seas last lost contact to find out what happened.
The search vessel found nothing at the location where contact was lost.
They began sailing along the original course of the Ocean Oasis towards the Devil's Sea in an attempt to find its whereabouts.
But once the search ship actually embarked on this route, which should have been incredibly dangerous, it found that the Devil's Sea seemed to have become much safer.
The search vessel encountered no problems upon entering its outer area.
Even so, the search ships dared not venture any further into the Devil's Sea.
Moreover, when they arrived at the outer area of the Devil's Sea...
They then saw the numerous remains of Oasis of the Sea passengers and ship remains floating on the sea surface.
After losing contact, the Oasis of the Seas has indeed sunk!
They all realized this at that time.
The search party immediately retrieved some of the small, broken pieces of the Oasis of the Sea that were floating on the surface of the sea.
And then there were the items, which were suspected to be belongings of the victims, used as evidence.
They immediately chose to return and reported the news to Oasis Company.
After Duncan learned of this news at the company, he passed it on to White Star.
That's why rumors about the Oasis of the Seas have intensified.
After learning of this news, Duncan also tried to obtain more information in an attempt to complete his side mission.
Yesterday, when Weaving and Fionn arrived, he had the opportunity to learn the truth about the sinking.
But it was only after Doto reminded him and he was called out that Duncan felt a bit resentful.
And that's how things have come to this point, where he was summoned to Doto's office.
Then here, he met the person in front of him who was dressed elegantly and had a unique temperament.
It was clearly a young man of high status and position, and he spoke to him.
"Duncan...you don't want your undercover identity to be discovered, do you?"
At this moment, Duncan once again felt that same despair he had felt before.
He wasn't sure if he had perfectly controlled the expression on his face.
But for Gu Xinghe, he had perfectly read Duncan's complete thoughts at this moment.
