The entire venue was deathly silent.
The next second, the microphone in the teddy bear's hand slammed onto the stage with a "thud," making a crisp and abrupt sound.
Yu Xiangnan looked at the teddy bear and called out to it, feigning confusion.
"referee?"
Before the teddy bear could even speak, its opponent sprang to his feet like a spring, his face grim as he uttered, "I forfeit," before turning away without hesitation and leaping off the stage without looking back.
The remaining players, bombarded by Yu Xiangnan's barrage of questions that were all rather awkward to answer, were also defeated, each looking helpless and sighing.
The librarian, acting as both host and referee, stared at Yu Xiangnan with nothing but shock in its eyes until Yu Xiangnan coughed, at which point it announced the final result.
Without a doubt, Yu Xiangnan won first place in this event.
Thus, the "You Ask, I Answer" event came to a "successful" end, and "Ruan Qing" became famous.
Yu Xiangnan calmly accepted the reward for first place in the rankings—a (★★★★) [Random Item Card] and 3000 Journey Points—and pretended to leave. Once most of the people around had left, she quietly returned and found the [Librarian].
She approached the teddy bear from behind, a smile on her face, and asked, "Referee, I'd like to ask, which server are you from?"
The teddy bear shuddered, nervously looked around, quickly made a "shh" gesture, and then pulled Yu Xiangnan to a secluded place.
They stared at each other, wide-eyed.
The teddy bear's mind went blank for a moment before it finally spoke.
[Liberal Librarian]: How did you know? No...
Yu Xiangnan shrugged and replied, "You slipped up while hosting, which didn't seem like something a dedicated NPC would do. I felt something was off, so I wanted to test you."
"I didn't expect you to be so easily fooled and admit it right away."
[Librarian]: ......
The teddy bear seemed deflated, instantly becoming listless.
[Librarian]: Okay, I am indeed from another planet, I can tell you that, but please don't tell anyone else I'm just here on Earth to work.
[Librarian]: I'm from Qixing, I can't say anything else...
[Librarian]: Today's event was terrifying. I'm never coming to Earth again.
The culprit, Yu Xiangnan, blinked his bright eyes, which were full of innocence.
Well, I didn't expect it to be so honest.
However, she seemed to have a vague recollection of the "Qixing" server...
The funeral director I encountered in the Chaos Dungeon seems to be from Qixing.
......
The second day of the "rest period" is at nine o'clock in the morning.
Yu Xiangnan quickly went to the [Mine] and completed three dungeons before returning to his own territory.
This break is short, only seven days. It's time to use this opportunity to contact the National Special Administration and inquire about their progress.
When this list was released, Ying Xiao surged to the top of the [Collection List], and the reason is not hard to understand.
After all, special operations teams have the advantage of resource sharing. With so many people collecting items and supplies together, the quantity is definitely more than what one could collect alone. Moreover, the team members are all quite capable, making the collection process naturally more efficient.
After a very short time of thought, she contacted Ji Fu in private chat.
Ying Xiao is very tight-lipped when communicating with people, making it difficult to find a breakthrough in her communication.
But Ji Fu is different.
He is young and inexperienced, making him more vulnerable in a confrontation. Even if he is clever and quick-witted, his emotions and thoughts are easier to read and manipulate, so it is clearly more appropriate to take the initiative and extract information from him.
However, we must not be careless.
[Yu Xiangnan]: I've found most of the deals we discussed before. We can deliver a batch of goods first.
[Ji Fu]: Which transaction?
[Yu Xiangnan]: Loot Collection
[Ji Fu]: Okay, I'll let the captain know. Then you can take me to your territory.
[Yu Xiangnan]: Yes, I've already invited them.
Ji Fu quickly accepted the invitation and entered the territory.
"Please sit wherever you like." Yu Xiangnan picked up the teapot and skillfully poured Ji Fu a cup of tea, the steaming tea swirling in the cup.
Seeing Ji Fu sitting on the sofa, she went straight to the leather chair that was slightly higher than the sofa and sat down without any hesitation, getting straight to the point. She reached into her card album and took out a Queen of Spades playing card (this playing card was copied by the Slow Copy Machine), a Rainbow Slime Ball loot she had kept from the "Mutant City" dungeon, and some other loot that had dropped repeatedly in dungeons.
Ji Fu readily took out five Marrow Cleansing Stones, twenty Experience Bottles, and one [Card Upgrade Card].
Unlike purification stones, marrow cleansing stones have an extremely low drop rate. Even with Yu Xiangnan's good luck, she can only run the dungeon once a day, which slows down her collection progress. However, now that she has these five marrow cleansing stones, she can complete a hidden achievement of collecting thirty marrow cleansing stones and one hundred purification stones.
The special operations team's goal is to be number one on the [Collection Ranking], so there's no need for her to waste too much energy competing with them for that top spot.
After all, it's better to give them first place than to let the Crescent Moon players take it away.
Two fists can't beat four hands.
Unfortunately, the corpse couldn't help her climb the rankings.
What needs to be done now is to hold onto the [Level Ranking], [Conquest Ranking], and [Achievement Ranking]. As for the [Profession Ranking - Funeral Director], her position is already very secure, and second place poses no threat to her.
Ji Fu put away the spoils of war. "Is there anything else? If not, I'll be leaving now."
"Yes." Yu Xiangnan took a sip of tea, then changed the subject, "I've always had a question I wanted to ask you."
"Of course, this question should be answered by 'you' personally, not in the capacity of the 'National Special Administration'."
Ji Fu was taken aback.
After a moment, he said, "Alright, go ahead and ask."
Yu Xiangnan looked at him and said, word by word, "Before the game invasion, I had heard of the existence of the special agency 'National Special Administration,' and the news had also reported on it."
"But now that we're in the game, completely isolated from the outside world, how can the Special Administration contact the outside world? And how can we prove our identity? For example, I can also claim to be a member of the National Special Administration and want to form a special operations team. You should understand that, right?"
Ji Fu was slightly taken aback, but quickly replied calmly, "I was only brought into the special operations team after I entered the game. Regarding proving my identity, I really can't provide concrete proof..."
