So Shen Qian simply shut up and let everyone speculate.
"Number 98 won't talk; he's hiding something!"
Number 9 clicked his tongue and said, "Looks like the Heavenly King Palace is going to have another silver coin."
“Number 3 is the old silver coin, number 56 is the large silver coin, and number 98 is the small silver coin. The whole family is complete!” Number 66 chimed in with a smile.
"Number 3?" Shen Qian was curious when he heard such an early number.
"Hehe, he's above you, but he's not online today," laughed number 66.
Shen Qian subconsciously looked up, then was startled.
Above his head... were the thirteen thrones of the Star Council.
The number three they were talking about was actually a prince?!
While shocked that these people dared to mock even kings and nobles, Shen Qian inexplicably felt a sense of relief.
This at least shows that the Hall of a Hundred Kings doesn't operate on a strict hierarchical system. Apart from differences in authority, everyone is relatively equal in daily interactions.
Perhaps that's why everyone has to wear a disguise.
Without the constraints of real-world identities, everyone can relax more here.
"Hey, Number 97, you posted a bounty?"
As soon as someone spoke, Shen Qian seemed to sense something, and with a thought, a screen projection appeared on his right.
The projection showed a series of bounty missions, with brief bounty information visible through the titles.
At the top right now, there is a slightly flashing bounty task. It shows that it was just posted, the poster is number 97, and the bounty is 100 contribution points.
"It's just like what I told you yesterday. We really messed up in this college entrance exam. It's not that we're afraid of losing, but the problem is that it's too strange that we can't even find the person in question!"
Number 97's frustrated voice rang out.
"I contacted many acquaintances in other provinces through other channels. Logically speaking, such a genius should not be nameless, but there is not a single clue. It's as if this person suddenly appeared."
Shen Qian's lips twitched, and then he clicked on the bounty mission.
This is indeed a task to find someone. As long as you provide the identity information of the "mysterious opponent", you can take away these 100 contribution points.
Ten million!
I'm so tempted, what should I do?
"Judging from your description yesterday, that opponent's martial arts skills were simply unparalleled. Is he really that strong?" Number 9 asked skeptically.
"I may seem talkative, but I didn't study Chinese well. If you insist that I describe it, all I can say is 'Holy shit'."
"In short, that guy is incredibly awesome, even more so than I described," said No. 97.
"Well, your college entrance exam practice is all basic martial arts. If you have talent and are willing to work hard, you might be able to master it to perfection," Number 73 commented, seemingly offering a fair assessment.
"If you ask us to use our own resources to help you find people, 100 contribution points are a bit of a waste. It just depends on who has the time and inclination," another No. 29 laughed.
"But what about you, Number 97? You only received 100 contribution points when you joined the Hundred Kings Hall, and you just spent them like that?" Number 9 asked curiously.
"It's okay, I can still afford a million or so if I grit my teeth, but finding a worthy opponent is hard. I haven't been sleeping well these past few days, my mind is filled with that person's image..."
As they were talking, Number 97 suddenly changed the subject.
"Oh, right, number 98!"
Shen Qian, who was silently diving, was startled when Zhao Keyi called his name. He subconsciously responded with a "Huh?"
"You just said you're from the Southwest, right? I'm not really familiar with those three provinces. If you have time, could you keep an eye out for me?"
"Oh well."
Upon hearing that it was just this matter, Shen Qian immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Indeed, who would have thought that such a coincidence would happen?
...But then again, I don't think I did anything wrong, so why should I feel guilty?
Well, the main reason is probably that they feel it's too easy to earn 100 contribution points, and it feels a little unethical.
Hearing that others were not very interested in the 100 contribution points, Chen Qian wasn't in a hurry.
He had originally intended to take another look at the other bounty missions on the panel, but a sudden restlessness arose deep within his heart.
Having become accustomed to this feeling, Shen Qian's expression changed slightly. He stood up from his throne, greeted Wan Ning who had reappeared beside him, and then hurriedly logged off.
...
As consciousness returned to his body, Shen Qian opened his eyes and looked around.
A jolt came through the vehicle, which continued to move normally through the swirling sandstorm.
Most people were still sleeping soundly with their eyes closed, except for Gu Zifang, who had woken up at some point and was whispering something to Ouyang Fei.
On the other side, the soldiers, led by Song Ben, were softly humming some kind of lullaby. Their voices were so quiet that they were just covered by the roar of the engine, as if they were afraid of disturbing the students' sleep.
Before sinking, he glanced one last time at the passenger seat, where Captain Sun, commander of the Right Battalion, sat calmly, his sharp eyes fixed on the sandstorm ahead.
Shen Qian frowned.
Everything seems normal, but what was that system erratic behavior just now?
Before sinking, I was also a little unsure.
Normally, the system only becomes agitated when a resource target appears, but at this time it returns along the original path. If there were something that could attract the system's attention, the system should have reacted beforehand.
Another possibility is that the system detected some kind of danger that it cannot handle.
This situation has rarely occurred before, but that's because Shen Qian was in Jingcheng, where he had extra protection.
