Chapter 41

Yizhi Mei chose a KTV, and she seemed to be quite familiar with the boss. With just one call, the boss reserved the largest soundproof private room for her.

She let the ten people chat on the side, while Yizhi Mei and Ye Yun sat in the inner room. She opened two bottles of beer and handed one to Ye Yun, saying, "Why can you, a First Lieutenant, directly receive the main faction mission?"

Ye Yun smiled faintly, took a sip of beer, and said, "Perhaps it's because my regular mission just happened to be at this time."

Yizhi Mei's face was stern, "Don't try to dodge the question. If that were true, the system should have first issued a faction side mission. Only after you decided to stay would the main faction mission replace your regular mission. Humph, if I'm not mistaken, you must be far more powerful than most people at that time. The system believes you have the ability to make contributions in this main faction mission, which is why it directly assigned the mission to you."

Ye Yun said, "Since you already know, why are you asking me?"

"You..." Yizhi Mei's chest rose and fell, and she frowned, "Don't think you're that important. Do you think only the two of us who accepted the mission will investigate the mysterious organization?"

Ye Yun was surprised, "Isn't that the case?"

"Of course not. Others will receive the same mission, but it will be issued as a hidden mission. Similarly, although we haven't given subsequent missions, other people's missions will also be given to us as hidden missions, it's up to you whether you want to accept them."

Yizhi Mei seemed to be mocking Ye Yun's narrow-mindedness, but she immediately spat out the beer she had just drunk, her beautiful eyes wide with shock as she looked at Ye Yun, "You can't be doing the main faction mission for the first time, right!? What a joke? How did you get the Neutral Evil faction route then?"

Ye Yun smiled faintly, "It's not only the main faction mission that can determine the route."

"Major event..." Yizhi Mei was shocked, "You've experienced a major event!? And you're still a First Lieutenant! Did you participate in the major event on August 27th? But that time the bandits were completely wiped out, and the CT side didn't get..."

By the time she finished speaking, she was thoroughly shocked, her finger trembling as she pointed at Ye Yun, "You... you... Souken..."

Before she could finish, Ye Yun had already covered her mouth and pressed her onto the sofa.

She wanted to struggle, but under Ye Yun's gaze, she felt as if her soul was being burned!

Those eyes, which were usually sunny and cheerful, were now cold and sinister, radiating a bone-chilling killing intent.

The fragrance of her body wrapped around Ye Yun's nostrils. He leaned down and whispered in her ear, "I'm not afraid of you guessing this, it shows I have the confidence to kill you. You know why I'm telling you this."

As he spoke, a light screen popped out from the ring on his right hand, displaying his personal data.

Yizhi Mei's pupils contracted sharply, her beautiful eyes darting between the light screen and Ye Yun's face in disbelief.

Ye Yun said, word by word, "Since you chose the Neutral Evil faction, you should know the impact of doing things that harm others and yourself on the route, and the fact that you will face my pursuit. Think about it carefully."

As he spoke, he retracted the data screen and calmly sat on the sofa, drinking his beer.

Yizhi Mei's ample chest rose and fell a few times before she took a deep breath and forced down her shock, "You actually fused... Alright, I know you're telling me this to prove that you have the strength and the qualifications to cooperate with me, even to lead me. I also know you've figured out the importance of the Neutral Evil route to me. From now on, I will consider you an important partner and cooperate with your actions, and I will tell you everything I know. And I promise, I won't leak this to anyone."

She looked at Ye Yun with a hint of resentment, "Are you satisfied?"

Ye Yun nodded and asked bluntly, "Since you said others will receive our mission as a hidden mission, does that mean the same applies to previous main faction missions?"

Yizhi Mei nodded, "That's right. The main faction mission, as an important task for determining the route, naturally won't actively provide divergent judgments after the route is determined."

Ye Yun continued, "If the Ghost Squad is the only one in the Hong Kong Lawful Evil faction, why don't they continue to recruit players to expand their strength?"

Yizhi Mei said, "There's no need. Although I'm not on the Lawful Evil route, I understand some of their methods. Usually, Lawful Evil players receive regular missions at the same time, and the game system arranges for them to team up in advance. Besides, there are too few experts in Hong Kong, so the Ghost Squad has no need to bring a bunch of rookies and let them have the leftovers after they finish eating. Moreover, I've heard that the Lawful Evil team has its own route for nurturing new blood, and players who grow up from the grassroots may not be in their eyes."

"Can ChaGui players in the main faction mission kill players from their own faction without punishment?"

"Actually, except for Lawful Evil players who cannot attack their Lawful Evil companions, players from different routes can attack each other. ChaGui players are always reckless, and to pursue higher benefits, attacking players from the same faction is quite normal."

"Since we weren't given a warning not to attack players from the same faction, does that mean we can attack players from the other two routes?"

This question surprised Yizhi Mei, "Ah? We are Neutral Evil, why would we attack others? That would change our route inclination!"

Ye Yun nodded but didn't say much, instead changing the topic, "Did you call me here tonight mainly to determine our subordinate relationship?"

Yizhi Mei blushed slightly and smiled bitterly, "Originally, that was the idea... Roger only gave us ten team members, which is very disadvantageous for our mission."

Ye Yun pondered for a moment, "You're wrong."

"Huh?"

Ye Yun explained, "From the key hint given by the system, 'Roger's Major's assigned tasks are reasonable,' despite others being able to participate in the investigation, both the system and Roger are more optimistic about our ability to investigate the entire matter. And from this hint, although we each have only five team members, if used well, we can still easily complete the mission."

"More importantly, although the mysterious organization is important, Roger's main goal is still the CT, meaning he needs a large number of people to deal with the CT, so he naturally can't give us too many people. But he has high hopes for us, and from this, it can be seen that he has already found something and will provide it to us at a critical moment."

Yizhi Mei was curious, "Since he has found something, why doesn't he tell us directly?"

Ye Yun smiled strangely, "That's the system's issue. I ask you, why can we join this mission? Is it just because our ranks are higher?"

"It shouldn't be," Yizhi Mei said, "I've seen that among the three hundred people, there are many First Lieutenants, and you..."

"So..." Ye Yun said, "The system must have recognized our abilities."

"Is it because we are smart enough to investigate everything with just ten team members?"

"That's only part of it," Ye Yun's eyes were deep, "I suspect that during the investigation, there are some things that only the two of us, who are Neutral Evil, can do, and others on the other two routes cannot."

He glanced at the ten people outside who were discussing, and said solemnly, "That's why I chose these five people. They each have their own skills, and at the same time, these five people all want to follow the Neutral Evil route."

"So it wasn't just because of their ranks that you chose them?" Yizhi Mei pondered, "What problem must be solved by Neutral Evil people? Could it be..."

She showed a hesitant expression, "CT..."

"Exactly." Ye Yun took a deep breath, "We are likely to have to interact with the CT and cooperate under mutual suspicion. Of course, this is probably just part of our value."

He took out the briefcase given by Roger, opened it, and saw a bunch of miniature communication devices, a black combat suit in two pieces, infrared equipment, and an envelope.

Ye Yun smiled strangely and waved the envelope in front of Yizhi Mei, "My guess was right, Roger must have some leads on the mysterious organization."

Yizhi Mei also took out her envelope, and the two opened them to find different clues.

She looked at Ye Yun, "What should we do? Investigate separately?"

Ye Yun said, "I'll take two of these people, and the rest will be yours. We'll each follow our own clues, and we'll report any news immediately. At critical moments, I'll tell you what to do, and the rest of the time, you make your own decisions."

"No problem."
