"Space number 3636364, you have entered the world of [Age of Sail 4]."

"This is your second world. In this world, you will receive normal rewards."

"Unique system attribute [Rebellious Tyrant] detected!"

"Your entry point is in East Asia!"

"Filtering plot characters... "

"The plot character that meets the criteria is... Richard Huisen!"

"Reason for selection: Richard Huisen (Japanese d), a British person, was sent to Li Huamei's command as an inspector under the condition that the Ming government would agree to the Li family owning an illegal fleet. He is a fervent patriot, devoted to the British home fleet, Clifford. When the Li family's power threatened Clifford, he betrayed them, bribed Ming officials, and handed over a key Ming stronghold to Clifford, almost plunging Li Huamei and the Ming fleet into an irrecoverable abyss. When Li Huamei finally led the fleet back to Hangzhou, Richard Huisen chose to commit suicide."

"Calculating the Shattered Ring tasks... "

"The Shattered Ring tasks you must complete are as follows:

1. [Female Admiral Collection] Increase the affection of any one of the following: Lulu Agot (Europe), Li Huamei (East Asia), Tia Vaman Chaska (America), or Azisha Nulennahar (Pirate Queen, hidden character) to 100 points.

Completion reward: 600 fortune points. Azisha Nulennahar is more difficult, 800 fortune points.

2. [Proof of Dominance] Obtain any Proof of Dominance from the Seven Seas.

Completion reward: 700 fortune points.

3. [Dominating a Region] Achieve a power value of 1000 points in any sea.

Completion reward: 500 fortune points.

Task duration: six months."

"Failure to complete any of the above three Shattered Ring tasks will result in the deduction of the corresponding fortune points. If the account balance is insufficient, you will be eliminated."

"Upon completing the three Shattered Ring tasks, you will be able to shatter any protagonist's aura and absorb all their fortune, converting it into fortune points."

"Richard Huisen? That guy who's good at faking his death?"

Lin Qing was both amused and exasperated, never expecting to be assigned such an identity.

When he played Age of Sail 4, he always used Li Huamei. Of course, he also had many dealings with Richard Huisen. This guy had a bug where, after being defeated and forced back to Hangzhou by Li Huamei, he would commit suicide. However, in Clifford's fleet, the admiral of the fourth division was still the supposedly dead Richard Huisen, who had come back to life!

Upon careful consideration, it made sense.

Richard Huisen was a minor character, a pawn, and the most dangerous person lurking by Li Huamei's side, nearly destroying her. This guy was the perfect match for Lin Qing's Rebellious Tyrant attribute.

Fortunately, this identity was also very suitable for his team tasks in the Hong Gang and the Takenaka Gang!

This identity provided Lin Qing with an extremely perfect cover.

Lin Qing smiled.

He stood on the dock, his heart surging with emotion.

This was the Jiangnan region of the late Ming Dynasty, a place of immense wealth and trade.

Seeing such prosperity, even the members of the modern-day Takenaka Gang from Japan had a greedy gleam in their eyes.

Everyone knew that the final output of a plot world was closely related to its wealth.

If such a prosperous world were to be controlled by the Takenaka Gang, even a small percentage of the world's wealth would make the Takenaka Gang the richest team in the space sanctuary city!

This would mean a larger scale, more advanced technology, better weapons, and faster development.

Shinji Misaki was also stunned by the prosperous trade scene, remaining speechless for a long time.

The members of the Hong Gang were also dumbfounded.

The southeastern trade hub of the late Ming Dynasty, due to the rise of trade and workshops, even saw the emergence of capitalist sprouts. If not for the brutal invasion of the Manchu Eight Banners, China might have taken a different path!

After a long time, Shinji Misaki finally sighed, "This must be Hangzhou. 'Above there is heaven, below there are Suzhou and Hangzhou.' Indeed, it lives up to its reputation. The Hangzhou of the 16th century is already so prosperous. Gentlemen of the Hong Gang, I entrust this mission to you all."

Suddenly, the members of the Hong Gang received a prompt!

Someone had sent a red envelope!

Shinji Misaki, in one go, took out 2000 supply points and transferred 200 supply points to each member of the Hong Gang!

His generosity immediately increased the members' goodwill towards him, even the usually arrogant big man with the horse face smiled at Shinji Misaki.

Shinji Misaki said calmly, "This mission, our two gangs are determined to succeed. I have said it before, if the mission is completed, I, Shinji Misaki, will not let you down. Sixty percent of the profits will be yours. We will sail to Japan and cooperate with the Kurahashi family. Before we part ways, let us have a feast at the Drunken Immortal Tower by the sea to deepen our friendship."

The members of the Hong Gang were very pleased with his generosity, all patting their chests and assuring him that cooperation was no problem and they would definitely complete Shinji Misaki's mission.

Shinji Misaki found an opportunity to give Lin Qing a nod and arranged for his deputy, Yamada Yuu, to entertain the others and divert their attention.

Lin Qing understood and seized the opportunity, pretending to go to the bathroom, to find Shinji Misaki waiting outside the Drunken Immortal Tower.

Shinji Misaki pointed to a teahouse nearby, "Please, sir, come and sit there."

Lin Qing nodded.

The two sat in a private room in the teahouse. The waiter served tea and snacks, then left and closed the door.

The room instantly became quiet.

The two looked at each other.

Shinji Misaki poured tea for Lin Qing and himself, took a sip, and said leisurely, "The tea of the Ming Dynasty is truly sweet and fragrant, much better than the tea produced in later China?"

Lin Qing did not respond, just looked at him coldly.

Shinji Misaki smiled faintly, "It seems, sir... I haven't asked for your name and title yet?"

"I have no name, call me Doctor," Lin Qing said coolly.

"Very well, Doctor."

Shinji Misaki smiled, "It seems, Doctor, you are not very enthusiastic about the cooperation between the Hong Gang and my Takenaka Gang."

"No problem," Lin Qing said solemnly, "For people like us, what matters is not personal feelings but the mission itself. As long as it is a team mission, I will do my best to complete it."

Shinji Misaki clapped his hands, admiringly, "Very good! I appreciate your professional spirit, Doctor. In fact, our two factions in the space have long transcended the real-world ethnic hatred. After all, in this new world, whoever has the greatest power is the king. Both our factions have recognized the value of cooperation."

Lin Qing nodded.

Shinji Misaki could see that Lin Qing seemed to be a man of few words, but he was not bothered by this. Silence is the best trait of a killer.

He came straight to the point, "I wonder, Doctor, how you plan to complete my commission and get rid of that bitch Li Huamei." Lin Qing raised an eyebrow, "You said the Kurahashi family has already suppressed Li Huamei significantly. I need to see the specific situation before I can answer you. You know the rules of a killer. Without information, we cannot make a judgment." Shinji Misaki nodded and opened a map. Lin Qing raised an eyebrow. It was clearly a world map from the Age of Sail 4! This map was similar to the world map players carried when they entered Age of Sail 4, showing only the rough shape of the known world. Since the distant continents and supply points had not yet been discovered, large parts of the map were dark. Only about half of the Earth's area was illuminated. Lin Qing's mind raced. The Takenaka Gang from Japan was indeed formidable, as he noticed that the East Asian part of the map had already been partially explored. The hidden location in Hokkaido had been revealed! The Japanese navigation technology was quite advanced among all the nation's adventurers. This natural advantage allowed the Takenaka Gang to thrive in the Age of Sail world, gaining a head start.

What made Lin Qing's heart tremble even more was that, in the 8 cities of East Asia, excluding the future construction of Tamsui City in Madagascar, which would only appear when Li Huamei triggered the relevant plot, there were 8 cities in total. However, four of these cities—Nagasaki, Osaka, Naha, and Kyoto—had already been completely dominated by the Kurahashi family, with a control value of 100%! The Li family's fleet was confined to the map of the Ming mainland, only able to navigate between Qinzhou, Hangzhou, Quanzhou, and Macau. The power value comparison, as shown in the intelligence, was 5000 for the Kurahashi family versus 3500 for the Li family. The Li family was at a comprehensive disadvantage in the life-or-death competition with the Kurahashi family. Lin Qing knew that this was largely due to the efforts of the Takenaka Gang.

"As you can see," Shinji Misaki said with a hint of pride, "The Li family is on the verge of collapse. Our Takenaka Gang is close to dominating East Asia. But a hundred-legged worm does not die even when it's dead, and Miss Li Huamei is indeed an outstanding heroine, known as 'Xiang Fei Hu Li'! If there were a way, I would really want to make her my own woman."

"She was once lured into the narrow Seto Inland Sea by false intelligence provided by our bribed Ming officials. With just three Chinese medium-sized sailboats, she faced the encirclement of two main fleets of the Kurahashi family. Yet, she managed to cleverly use the monsoon and T-formation tactics to sink one of our heavy gunships and escape!"

"God. You can't imagine how sexy she looked standing on the ship, commanding with such grace. Oh, she's a thousand times sexier than those Yamato Nadeshiko!"

He sighed, his face flushed with excitement, suddenly standing up as if he were a deranged patient, fantasizing about the beautiful heroine Juliet from last night's opera.
