Chapter 153: Showing Up in Front of the Whole World
Anson Deer had no intention of hiding anything.
Rather, if the principal's affairs are not explained properly, the authorities will most likely regard the principal as something like a "participant in the last evolution game."
Furthermore, based on this, a bunch of inexplicable conspiracy theories were extended, which finally caused internal unrest that was unnecessary.
Therefore, he reported the situation almost truthfully to the captain of the Chinese national team, Jiang Yiji.
"I see."
Jiang Yiji was unexpectedly calm. He was twirling a ballpoint pen and writing down every sentence Anson Lu said in his notebook.
Mo Xiaoyuan was stunned.
He held the gun bag, looking confused, and occasionally turned to look at Anson Lu, and sometimes turned to look at Jiang Yiji.
“Is this true?”
Mo Xiaoyuan swallowed a mouthful of water and held the gun bag tightly in a daze, as if he was ready to draw his gun at any time.
He really doubted whether he and these two people were from two different dimensions. Did he hear their conversation wrongly?
An old chess player from the future came to the present? No, why did the captain act so calm after hearing such a ridiculous explanation? Is this world's number one player really not talking nonsense? Why does it feel like he is talking nonsense?
What’s important is that Jiang Yiji, who is usually cautious, reacted too calmly after hearing all this, as if he trusted Anson Lu unconditionally - he did not raise any unnecessary questions and just unilaterally recorded Anson Lu’s narration.
When he thought of this, Mo Xiaoyuan shuddered and his hair stood on end.
He began to suspect whether the two men were in the same group - the reason why the captain asked him to visit the world's number one today was because the captain and Anson Lu had planned for a long time and wanted to find a suitable place to kill him.
No, I'm still so young, I'm only 14 years old. Captain, why are you so cruel? What did I do wrong?
"Captain, please let me go." Mo Xiaoyuan said in a trembling voice.
An Senlu and Jiang Yiji were both stunned for a moment. They turned their heads and looked at the trembling Mo Xiaoyuan.
"Xiao Yuan, what's wrong with you?" Jiang Yiji asked.
Mo Xiaoyuan hugged his gun bag tightly and said tremblingly: "Captain, you, you really are not communicating some secret code?"
Jiang Yijie smiled and said, "No, I am just doing an investigation. The official mission is to get information from Anson Lu about the principal."
"But, traveling through time, chess in the future, the world has been destroyed once, Captain, these sound too weird, right?" Mo Xiaoyuan asked weakly.
"Of course, I have doubts in my mind." Jiang Yijie explained slowly: "But I said before I came here that no matter what Mr. Lu said, we should report it to the higher-ups truthfully, and we should not bother him too much, and we should fully respect his personal feelings."
"I'm sitting right in front of you, how can you say such things?" Anson Lu raised his eyebrows.
"I just want to say, Mr. Lu, the authorities care about you very much. From the fact that you have not joined the law enforcement team, or the official team, it can be seen that you are a person with a strong individual will." Jiang Yijie smiled, "So, we will not rashly infringe on your personal boundaries, and give 99% trust and affirmation to your words and deeds."
"What about the remaining one percent?" Anson Lu stood up and poured himself a glass of water.
"We still need to be on guard, please understand."
"Okay, okay, I get it." Anson Lu said calmly, "Then let's stop here for now. Lorenzo and I have an appointment and it's almost time."
"Are you referring to Lorenzo de' Medici?" Jiang Yiji's expression changed slightly.
Mo Xiaoyuan was also a little surprised. You know who Lorenzo is. He is the president of the law enforcement team of the world's number one player union.
He didn't know that Anson Lu knew the captain of the law enforcement team privately. Jiang Yiji originally thought that except for the internal members of Hell Lighthouse, Anson Lu's external social relationships were completely closed.
"Otherwise, he and I are old acquaintances."
"Mr. Anson Lu, what you just said, is it about Seoul, South Korea?"
"Yes, the South Korean capital was occupied, and he asked me for help." Anson Lu took a sip of water and said slowly: "Actually, I'm curious, why didn't he ask your national team for help?"
The main task of the law enforcement team is to recapture fallen cities, and the main task of the national team is to maintain order in domestic cities. Normally, the two do not interfere with each other's work.
However, once encountering more difficult problems, the law enforcement team and the national team will work together to solve them, for example, the serial player rampage incident a while ago.
"I see." Jiang Yijie pondered, "I was wondering why the law enforcement team didn't ask for support from the national teams. Since they have reached a cooperation with you, they certainly don't need the strength of the national teams."
For such an important matter, Lorenzo's decision must first be approved by the Evolution Foundation.
Judging from the results, it seems that the Evolution Foundation also believes that seeking help from Anson Deer is a safe thing to do. In comparison, the national teams of various countries seem less reliable.
After all, the law enforcement team is a gathering of the best talents from various countries, and the national team is considered to be below the law enforcement team, and is slightly inferior in both strength and resources.
However, after all, Anson Lu is undoubtedly the world's number one combat force. As far as we know, the guild he leads, "Hell Lighthouse", has members who are all top-ranked sequence players.
With the help of the Hell Lighthouse, the law enforcement team naturally would not need to ask the national team for assistance.
"It's not that difficult to defeat a boss," Anson Lu put down his water cup. "Lorenzo probably wants to take this opportunity to declare to the world that my union and the law enforcement team are on the same side, so as to avoid the media making a fuss."
Not only that, Lorenzo might be more concerned about Julius' affairs.
He needed to see how Julius was completely tamed by Anson Deer. Otherwise, if this monster from the American mafia rose up one day, many members of the law enforcement team would suffer.
Jiang Yijie was silent for a moment, "I understand. I'll come to see you next time, Mr. Anson Lu. I wish you a safe journey."
"If you are here on behalf of the official to accept me, then I suggest you give up this idea as soon as possible. I will not join any official organization, and neither will those idiots in my union." Anson Lu replied decisively.
It has to be said that the Hell Lighthouse is full of undisciplined weirdos. Letting them join the official team might be more painful than killing them.
Especially Yuliu and Urushihara Ritsu, these two have very extreme and bad personalities, and only Anson Lu can convince them.
Although Anson Lu's words were absolute and merciless, Jiang Yiji did not show any embarrassment on his face.
With a smile in his eyes, he said sincerely: "No, putting aside the official mission, speaking purely from a personal standpoint, it is my honor to meet someone like you, Anson Deer."
"Forget about the flattery. It's nice to meet you." Anson Lu paused, "So, shouldn't you guys leave?"
"Let's go, Captain." Mo Xiaoyuan put on his gun bag and muttered, "But if we report this investigation result to the higher-ups, we will be scolded again."
Anson Lu said helplessly: "Go back and tell the people above that I really didn't lie. Even if you ask me a thousand times, I will answer the same way."
"Okay, I believe you, Mr. Anson Deer."
After he finished speaking, Jiang Yiji took Mo Xiaoyuan away.
They politely closed the door, and their figures were swallowed up by the gradually closing crack in the door - Jiang Yiji finally waved to Anson Lu as a farewell; Mo Xiaoyuan put his hands in his pockets, pouted his lips, and looked arrogant and lazy.
After Anson Lu sent the two away, he breathed a sigh of relief and locked the door.
"It's a solved problem. It seems that the authorities also know that they can't force me to join the organization."
With his current strength and unshakable status in the eyes of the people, the authorities will certainly do things according to his temperament and it is impossible to force him to join the official organization.
After all, everyone knows that if they are careless with their words or actions and end up falling out with the world's number one, then their chances of winning the world boss battle six months later will be reduced by at least half a percent.
Anson Lu glanced at the clock. It was already eleven o'clock in the morning. There was only one hour left until the time he and Lorenzo agreed upon. In one hour, he would have to use the travel voucher to fly to Seoul.
"Use it three times and you'll have a chance to win a prize in a high-end mall," he said.
This is the reward given to him by the system for achieving the achievement of being the "world's number one" three times in a row.
As soon as he finished speaking, the mall panel popped up, and then entered a lottery wheel interface. Every reward on this lottery wheel was very generous, and there was a huge difference compared to ordinary wheels.
Soon, the pointer of the turntable turned three times in succession and stopped at three grids respectively: a chess type crafting scroll (self-crafted), a random chess board, and 4,400 evolution coins.
"Self-creation, does that mean using the materials at hand to try to synthesize an unknown chess piece?" Anson Lu seemed to be thinking about something. This was the first time he had obtained this type of chess piece creation scroll.
Currently, he did not have many valuable materials left, so he decided to keep this special crafting scroll and wait until he could gather a bunch of Black Moon-level materials to see if he could craft an End-level chess piece.
"What chessboard was drawn?"
Anson Lu opened the chessboard panel, looked at the second chessboard inside, and clicked on the introduction.
[Board name: Night Chess Board]
[Effect of chessboard: Every night, the chess pieces on the chessboard gain 10% increased damage.]
"Compared to the Ice Ocean chessboard, this one looks much more useful." Anson Lu raised his eyebrows. "Unfortunately, it is only used in scoring situations. At least it won't be used in today's battle."
He had actually wanted to replace the Ice Sea chessboard for a long time. Every time he came back from a fight, his shoes were a little wet. It had to be said that the special effects of this chessboard were really a nuisance.
Anson Lu sat on the sofa and sent a message to Yuliu.
[Anson Lu: Julius, are you coming? Seoul, South Korea, 12 o'clock.]
[Yuliu: It's troublesome, but I came. ]
[Anson Lu: Okay, I'll wait for you at Shangshi High School. ]
Anson Lu closed the chat panel, walked out of the apartment, took a taxi to Shangshi High School, and the driver was so excited when he saw it was him that he naturally waived the fare for him and asked for a photo with him.
In the photo, Prince Shangshi had dark circles under his eyes and a very kind smile, like an eighty-year-old grandfather.
After getting off the taxi and entering the school gate, it was just class time. He didn't need to be too concerned about the students' gazes, so he walked straight towards the teachers' dormitory building.
"I thought you weren't coming. What's up?" a clear voice came.
At the dormitory door, Asuka Uesugi was waiting for him with her elbows folded. She was wearing a scarlet jacket and a baseball cap today. Her overall outfit was full of energy and exuded the coolness of an American girl.
"What else can I say? I can't let Lorenzo down. It's almost time to go. The sooner we finish the work, the sooner we can have a holiday." Anson Lu yawned, his voice confused.
At this time, Urushihara Ritsu walked out of the dormitory and took a sip of coffee. "Come to think of it, Lu Jun, this is the first time we announce our existence to the world."
"Yes, the name 'Loving Family' was about to become famous all over the world, but it's all your fault. Now we really have to use the name 'Hell Lighthouse' as a facade!"
"How obsessed are you with 'a loving family'?" Asuka was speechless.
"I've said before that you won't understand the simple spirit of the Chinese people." Anson Lu said seriously:
"Besides, before you try to reach my spiritual realm of returning to nature, I suggest that you two narcissists who don't know the heights of the world should first study Japan's mono no aware culture and learn to be a little more humble!"
"Go away." Asuka sighed.
"Lu Jun, the word narcissistic is not appropriate to describe me." Urushihara Ritsu raised the corner of his mouth and said lightly: "My self-confidence is based on a clear self-awareness."
"Let me think, who is the only one in the guild who has a dual trait sequence?" Anson Lu looked up at the sky, thinking seriously: "Uh, it seems to be the person named something like "Qun, Qun something, Qun crows something or other?"
The cup in Urushihara Ritsu's hand suddenly shook, and the smile on his face froze in place. After a while, he sighed meaningfully and took a sip of coffee in a dull manner.
Crows flew across the clear sky, making hoarse and unpleasant sounds.
Anson Deer snorted and chuckled. He knew very well that this was definitely Crow's weak spot. He attached great importance to people's talents and would never admit in his heart that his talents would lose to others.
"Wait, so he has a dual-trait sequence?" Asuka raised an eyebrow.
According to the authoritative theory released by the Evolution Foundation, among sequence players, the fewer generated traits there are, the higher the overall potential and overall strength of the sequence will be.
Of course, not all sequence professions conform to this rule, but nine out of ten are like this.
"Ms. Asuka, I think we can avoid this problem." Urushihara Ritsu said quietly.
"You are still the same." A cold greeting came, and looking towards the source of the voice, it was Julius Mena walking slowly from the direction of the teaching building.
Just then, Chu Qimo walked out of the dormitory building carrying a sword bag on his back; Yu Rui also came from the direction of the playground. She was wearing a blue and white school uniform, with a jacket and trousers that covered her skin tightly, and her snow-white hair was tied into a neat braid.
Apparently, the Icelandic girl was attending the school's physical education class. She was the most withdrawn person in the union, but she was the only one who occasionally attended school classes, as if she wanted to experience the school life that she had never had before.
"Everyone is here." Anson Lu put his hands in his pockets and said casually, "Let's go to Seoul. It's a good opportunity to show off in front of the whole world."
