Chapter 155 That "what if" you mentioned, could it be you?
Two seemingly disjointed sentences, three consecutive "very"s—Yu Xunge's heart began to pound wildly.
Little Machi didn't mention any news or actions from Zelan, but these two pieces of information were enough for Yu Xunge to connect them to a series of chain reactions.
Some divinely bestowed talents are terrifying, but not that terrifying. After all, it's unrealistic to use a divinely bestowed talent on everyone you see.
For example, Yu Xunge kept saying that she wanted to investigate everyone who got close to her, but in reality, it was very difficult to do so and required a lot of energy.
It's like when you're surfing the internet, you have to click on every comment you see to check the other person's profile and personal information.
The divinely bestowed talents range from a little over a hundred words to four or five hundred words. When reviewing them, one cannot stare at the person for too long to avoid being detected, which makes it even more energy-consuming...
But if this deputy city lord likes small animals, then it's a different story.
People who love animals can sometimes be a bit obsessive; they even want to squat next to animals when they poop and watch their expressions.
What's even more terrifying is that, unlike the player seen in the crystal ball, the one who has the ability to transform into an alien race and walk in the city might not necessarily return to the treehouse outpost. But the player who can only move around in the city by transforming into an animal will definitely need to return to the treehouse outpost to rest and recuperate.
She didn't dare to delay at all. With her left hand, she grabbed a handful of gold coins and handed them to Little Machi from under the table, while with her right hand, she opened the chat panel and started sending messages to Zhao Shuying.
At this moment, she typed faster than she had the day Yu Xunhuan was cornered in the apartment by Su Yitong and her men.
Her anxiety wasn't for any noble or grand reason, but for a simple, even selfish one: the better the Special Affairs Bureau did, the freer she, the lone wolf, would be, provided she could protect herself. With the Special Affairs Bureau covering for her, she could roam freely without any psychological burden.
【Yu Xunge】: The newly appointed deputy city lord of Undercity. His talent is that he can access the memories of a living being over the past 30 days. Moreover, he loves small animals very, very, very much. Have any players who can transform into animals been captured in Undercity recently?
[Zhao Shuying]: Received, reporting immediately, will chat later.
It was clear that Zhao Shuying was also in a hurry; she didn't even have time to finish her sentence.
This talent is truly terrifying.
Imagine a ghost who loves cute animals affectionately cuddling a puppy, picking it up and petting it, and casually using a skill to see what adorable things it's been up to lately...
It turned out that after escaping the city, the other party transformed into a bald, muscular man wearing wool pants and headed straight for the Blue Star people's treehouse stronghold...
hiss……
Yu Xunge was no longer in the mood to stay here. She knew that what she had just said was the limit for Little Machi.
She then took out a small purse, filled it with two hundred gold coins, and stuffed it into Little Machi's hand: "Thank you! I'll remember this ghostly favor! Do you have any way to erase this memory? I'm afraid you'll be in danger."
Little Machi took the money bag and put it away. Seeing the increased number of gold coins, her smile became even brighter. She was a lowly ant, and if Hufflepuff hadn't saved her life, she would have been trampled to death by the nobles.
For her, war was a distant thing; she would never enjoy the fruits of victory, and without Hedgehog's protection, she would have been the first to be sacrificed.
Moreover, before the existence of Blue Star, the 12 Holy Races fought each other every day—and even now they are still secretly competing—in Little Machi's mind, the people of Blue Star are no different from the other 11 Holy Races.
Perhaps in the future, the Earthlings will become the 13th Holy Race, and then everyone will continue to fight each other until they get tired and then they will take a truce to find the 14th alien race.
That's how big shots are; the flames of war in Zelan have never been extinguished.
Yu Xunge always praised her as a simple and honest little ghost, but she knew she wasn't. She was selfish, and her heart belonged only to Hufflepuff. Since Hufflepuff had taken a liking to Yu Xunge, she was willing to give her a subtle reminder.
Most importantly, it can make your life better, so why not?
Big shots never care about the life or death of small people, so why should small people care about the glory of big shots?
Little Maqi said, "Don't worry, with Hufflepuff around, I won't be in any danger."
Yu Xunge took out a bottle of intermediate-level forgetfulness potion and placed it in Little Machi's hand. Her withered green hand enveloped Little Machi's pale hand, and the four little hands tightly gripped the bottle. She looked at Little Machi and said firmly, "What if?"
Little Machi: "..." Is the "what if" you're talking about referring to yourself?
Yu Xunge released one hand, took out 10 gold coins from his pocket, and slapped them on the table: "Throat-soothing fee."
“I love drinking the forgetfulness potion!” Little Machi immediately broke free from Yu Xunge’s hand, pressed down on 10 gold coins with one hand, and used the thumb of the other hand to pry the cork off with one hand.
Yu Xunge immediately cast a Disillusionment Spell on herself and retreated outside the door. Only after she watched as Little Machi drank the intermediate forgetting potion that could make her forget what had happened in the last hour did she leave the alchemy shop.
...
The news of Yu Xunge spread like wildfire throughout the Special Affairs Bureau in an instant.
Everyone got busy.
No one questioned whether Yu Xunge would deliberately spread false information. Not to mention that Yu Xunge had always had dealings with the Special Affairs Bureau, she was also a celebrity in the game, ranking on both the level list and the pet list.
It's unlikely that such a player would deliberately fabricate a false message to fool the Secret Service—even if the message is false, then the source of the message is problematic.
What did Yu Xunge do wrong? She was just a Young Pioneer who reported important news immediately!
The Special Affairs Bureau has taken many precautions, which is why Yu Xunge didn't go to Zhelan through the Bureau and was unaware of them. As the Bureau learns more about divinely bestowed talents, the requirements for going to Zhelan are becoming increasingly stringent.
They have even taken precautions against the divine talent that can search memories. All players who want to enter the alien capital city must first leave the treehouse stronghold and stay in a safe house outside for more than 3 days before they can enter the city. The time limit for searching memories discovered on Blue Star is only 24 hours.
Who knew there was something that could show 30 days of memories...?
What kind of SVLP is this?!
The consequences of this news were so terrible that the Special Affairs Bureau even postponed its order to verify the authenticity of the information.
The first order was to have all players near the 36 main cities immediately return to the treehouse stronghold and be ready to evacuate at any time.
When each treehouse outpost was established, it was equipped with three skill stones that could teleport the entire group, specifically for dealing with such emergencies.
First, try to evacuate as many players as possible. Those who cannot return should find a way to hide themselves. Ensure that most players can safely return to Blue Star at any time. At the same time, send people to verify the authenticity of the information. Do both things at the same time.
If it is indeed leaked, after the main force withdraws, a small team will be sent back to destroy the treehouse stronghold and erase all traces.
This is the most efficient and least damaging method.
