Chapter 319 The Tower - The Traitor
[Squad Channel]
[Spicy Scallion]: What's wrong?
[Spicy Vinegar]: I don't know.
[Spicy Scallion]: Oh, it's the Moon Fox launching a sneak attack.
[Xin Cu]: Things' getting chaotic, I'm leaving. See you at the cliff.
[Spicy Onion]: I'm leaving too.
After the three judges reunited, Yu Xunge asked, "What are your plans?"
Liang Yuchuan toyed with the dagger in his hand and said, "I'll stay here and assassinate Oak Owl to level up."
Zhao Shuying had an even more important task: "I plan to go out and gather information to investigate how Oak Owl successfully merged into Zelan."
Compared to Senhai, the situation on Blue Star is more dangerous. The population is not as large as that of the Oak Owls in Senhai. They are still on the technology side and do not have the special wings with various abilities like the Oak Owls. In addition, a large number of duplicate light curtains are sunk at the bottom of the sea.
After they finished speaking, they both turned to look at Yu Xunge: "And you?"
Yu Xunge: "I plan to take on assassination missions to earn skill books."
Although this was an accident, it gave her a good opportunity to experiment... If she didn't follow the Oak Owl's history within the tower and instead became a traitorous owl, would she also be subject to mental punishment when she was reincarnated again?
The three looked at each other and realized that their goals were not actually conflicting; on the contrary...
Zhao Shuying: "Let's cause trouble together?" There is no butterfly effect inside the tower. Even if they cause a huge uproar, they can't really change the course of history inside the tower.
Yu Xunge pondered for a few seconds and thought it was feasible!
It's like having an agent to help her get jobs and negotiate payments, which saves her a lot of time to experiment with her alchemical inspirations over the years.
She has accumulated far too many ideas that need to be tested, and she trusts Zhao Shuying's negotiation skills, work ability, and emotional intelligence. When there are no missions, she can go into seclusion to study potions. When there are missions, she can come out to do them. Once she has made a name for herself, she can negotiate missions herself and get herself a set of melee skills.
At least she was certain that Zhao Shuying wouldn't force her to do any missions and would always discuss things with her. As for mission rewards, given Zhao Shuying's emotional intelligence, she would try her best to achieve a win-win situation unless absolutely necessary, instead of using righteousness to pressure her in everything. They agreed to act alone, but once inside the tower, she was asked to give way to Dinghai.
Liang Yuchuan didn't care; it was better for her than to have someone help her negotiate and get jobs.
The three of them fled together. On the way, Zhao Shuying finalized a general plan, deciding that she would be in charge of managing their three-person team from the outside.
If she takes on a mission, regardless of its difficulty, she will divide the reward into two parts: 20% will be the information she needs, and the remaining 80% will be used to help Liang Yuchuan and Yu Xunge obtain the skills they require. She will also share the information she receives with them.
If they took on the job themselves, Zhao Shuying wouldn't ask about their payment.
"Okay." Yu Xunge was fairly satisfied with the profit sharing.
Although Liang Yuchuan didn't use her brain for emotional intelligence or daily life, she kept Liang Pozhou's instructions in mind—if she encountered Yu Xunge, she could never go wrong by following her. Yu Xunge was quick-witted, and following her would ensure a long life. When she encountered Yu Xunge, she had to be gentle and not rebel.
Seeing Yu Xunge express his opinion, she immediately said, "I can too."
Zhao Shuying smiled and glanced at Liang Yuchuan: "Okay."
The three found a safe place to rest for a while and cooked lunch for themselves. Zhao Shuying took the opportunity to look at the map and organize the information she had collected in her previous reincarnations to decide where they would go next, or at least establish a base before splitting up.
Yu Xunge took out the food she had stored away and started eating, while Liang Yuchuan was munching on fruit. She glanced at Yu Xunge, then looked at her again a few seconds later, and couldn't help but ask, "Where's Tu Lan?"
Yu Xunge: !!!
"I'm afraid that if I go in to play a game and then come out, you'll be sitting and eating with her."
Yu Xunge glanced guiltily at Liang Yuchuan, who was taking big bites of jerky.
Zhao Shuying swiped her hand across the game screen and, upon hearing this, said, "Yeah, why don't you call Tu Lan out?" As she spoke, she took out several portions of barbecue, "Invite her to dinner."
Under the expectant gazes of the two, Yu Xunge remained silent for a moment before releasing Tu Lan. After all, Tu Lan would find out about this sooner or later... What did she do wrong! Blame Liang Yuchuan for killing the NPC so casually!
As soon as Tu Lan came out, Zhao Shuying waved to her and greeted her in a voice that didn't sound normal: "Long time no see~ I'm Sister Shuying~ Do you still remember me~~?"
Liang Yuchuan needs no introduction; she and Tu Lan already know each other. She took out a strip of meat and gave it to Tu Lan to chew on.
Tu Lan, holding a strip of meat, glanced at the spicy scallions and vinegar, then at Yu Xunge, who was munching on a rice ball with his head down. He looked at the spicy scallions and vinegar again, then at Songhua. His gaze darted back and forth between the three of them. The complexity of his emotions and the richness of his expressions were enough to earn him a nomination for the Golden Broom Award for Best Motorcycle.
Tu Lan: "See, see! I told you I'd miss the plot after I left!"
Tu Lan: "It's only been a blink of an eye, and it's like this. Do you think this is acceptable?"
Tulan: "I'm really afraid that next time we go out, I'll hear her call you 'baby'."
Tu Lan: "Explain, explain."
Tulan: "Where am I now? Can this little dragon, whom nobody cares about, still join this warm family?"
Yu Xunge: "…………" Do you want to listen to what you're saying?
Tu Lan jumped up, snatched Yu Xunge's rice ball, and flew off to eat Zhao Shuying's barbecue.
After listening to the three's grand plan, Tulan commented, "Then you need to choose a resounding name that will let the 12 Holy Races know that you are the absolute neutral party in doing business with all the Holy Races."
Zhao Shuying was very supportive, and Tu Lan's words did indeed make a lot of sense. She asked, "Do you have any good suggestions?"
Tu Lan: "Or we could call it 'Only Money'."
The three of them fell silent, but after exchanging glances, they decided that this name was actually the best. After all, they weren't planning to establish some kind of century-old enterprise; they were just using it for this reincarnation. They didn't need it to be catchy or memorable, just simple and straightforward.
The three men and one dragon sat by the fire and announced the formation of an organization in a few words.
...
Seven years later.
Yu Xunge flew at high speed through the dense jungle, occasionally moving up, down, left, and right to avoid branches and leaves. She slightly turned to avoid a vine that was startled and lashed at her, and shouted at the person diagonally behind her: "Why did you kill them!"
The mission was simply to kill those rising Oak Hawk prodigies, and everything went smoothly during their surprise attack.
The target was eliminated, the mission was completed, and they could have left. However, Liang Yuchuan insisted on staying and killing the several owls nearby before he would leave, which almost caused them to be blocked by a high-level owl commander.
Liang Yuchuan was also annoyed: "They called you a disgrace and scum of the Song lineage, a mongrel bird, unworthy of the surname Song, forbidding you from being called Songqiu anymore, forcing you to change your name to Dung Ball, and even cursing you to lose your wings. Aren't you angry about all of this?!"
Good grief, I got another scolding.
