Turmoil
Upon seeing him, Lin Yi said defiantly and confidently, "I want to watch the live stream."
"Oh, you're not avoiding me anymore?" Lin Nieran chuckled. He hadn't seen him much since returning to the neighborhood, so why was he acting so awkward?
Seeing Lin Yi poking at him with the dagger again, he quickly said, "Alright, alright, 007, adjust... adjust Tao Yuan's live stream, she should still be streaming."
The system interface became a visible interface when displayed externally, which Lin Yi could see, but he couldn't control it.
007 dutifully brought up the System Interface to entertain Lin Yi. Lin Nieran stretched and took the System Ball with him. "You can look at it slowly, I'm going to sleep. Don't stay up late either, early to bed and early to rise makes you healthy~"
"Sleeping all day, what a lazybones."
Lin Nieran ignored him, lay down on the bed, and closed her eyes to sleep.
Lin Yi withdrew his gaze and stared at the people in the live stream, absentmindedly playing with the dagger in his hand.
Lin Nieran slept soundly until dawn. The first thing he did after waking up was to check his balance. His Fame had already increased to 200,000, which meant he could draw twenty more times.
That's a good sign; it seems they didn't get any rest all night.
When he opened the shop, a small team came to him early in the morning to have their weapons repaired. After seeing them off, the shop returned to quiet.
Lin Nieran hadn't rested in the rocking chair for long when a group of people rushed in from outside. Each of them possessed considerable energy and wore neat combat uniforms, drawing frequent attention from those around them as they passed.
Lin Nieran also went to join in the fun, wanting to hear some gossip.
"Both S-Rank teams are back," the Shopkeeper next door, who sells travel food, chimed in.
Lin Nieran was a good listener, and cooperated by showing an expression that said "I want to hear."
" With the Authorities making such a big move these past few days, many Family Clan have heard the news and know that the Authorities are planning to take action, so they're getting together to protest."
"Therefore, those who were originally guarding the key areas of the S-Rank -S-Rank Instance to prevent their Instance have now been urgently recalled to suppress the rioting Family Clan."
Lin Nieran said, "Isn't it all because these Family Clan have gone too far? Authorities in some areas have been openly suppressed and had their resources withheld, and their monopoly on Weird Object has caused many Instance to remain unresolved for so long."
The conflict between the Authorities and the Family Clan actually started a long time ago.
The Authorities want stability, Family Clan want to seize power.
The Authorities had long wanted to take action against the Family Clan, but they lacked the opportunity and justification to do so.
The emergence of the organization caused some people to become restless and their ambitions could no longer be concealed, which gave Elder Ju a good opportunity to take action.
The first city they chose was Yangcheng.
The Cui Family of Yangcheng was the first to send a video requesting help, and at the time, not many people knew about it. But after they watched it, Family Clan in Yangcheng soon began to send out messages about a suspected organization.
These Family Clan are getting busy way too fast.
Therefore, the status of these Family Clan spies within the Authorities may far exceed their imagination. Although this information was intentionally released by Elder Ju, their timely discovery and reaction are enough to prove their ulterior motives.
These Family Clan are the best targets for their first strike.
Although there are more cunning Family Clan behind the scenes directing these targets, the Authorities do not intend to investigate further at this time.
"The Liang Family and Kong Families in Yangcheng haven't been very stable these past few days; we should have them kept a close eye on them." In the Official Base, several Ministers had been holding a meeting all night.
Wang Ding said, "I've learned that some Family Clan are willing to cooperate with the Authorities, and the spread of strange occurrences in the areas they manage is being contained."
"Some Family Clan, having enjoyed their time as local tyrants, have forgotten who actually helped them resolve the strange occurrences in the past."
"For so many years, our people have risked their lives, and now the Weird Object has fallen into their hands and become their Family Clan's property?"
Minister Xu Shouyan said, "We should break them all up and reorganize them, merging all the Family Clan into teams to kill the monsters together!"
"We can't be so arbitrary. Many Family Clan are also sharing the pressure with us, but some Family Clan need to be reprimanded," Director Chen said.
"Ultimately, it's still a matter of insufficient strength." Tao Yun stood up and projected the data in her hand onto the screen. "Over the years, our Family Clan has produced many S and SS-Rank Weird Object holders. They rarely go on missions, their Weird Object are full of energy, have a low risk of reactivation, and are very difficult to deal with."
"Upon investigation, we found that the strength and number of top-tier Purgers possessed by these Family Clan are now almost equal to ours, which explains their increasing arrogance in recent years."
"If we successfully gain the organization's support this time, we will definitely be able to suppress the arrogance of these Family Clan."
"Head of the Tao Family, we understand your Family Clan's thoughts, but the danger of this organization is immeasurable. It would be too risky to place our hopes on them rashly."
Director Chen said, "The time hasn't come yet. Since the organization has agreed to let us visit and discuss, it shows that they have the confidence. They are not afraid of the Family Clan or Authorities. Such an arrogant attitude must come from their strong power."
"If we don't cooperate with the organization, and those Family Clan manage to win over the organization, it will be the Authorities who will be troubled in return," Wang Ding also said.
"But you saw it on the live stream, do you really think they're suitable?"
After Xu Shouyan, he waved his hand, and the ring on his finger projected several live stream interfaces. This was his Weird Object, capable of reliably receiving any live stream signal.
One of them is Han Shang City. Ever since Lai'er "fake" massacred that city, he has been followed by a group of fans wherever he goes. His live stream is always on, and many of his enthusiastic comments are recorded.
Another screen showed a replay of the Theater broadcast before it ended.
The final scene immediately captured everyone's attention.
It was a wedding banquet, where the bride was nailed to a coffin, and the groom was a chicken. Now, this chicken and a Female Specter with a long nail piercing its head were locked in a vicious struggle with Tao Yuan and the others.
Sometimes bloody footprints would suddenly appear by the door, followed by a strange creature pouncing and chasing you; other times you would wake up in the middle of the night to find yourself nailed to a coffin, and only manage to push it open with all your might.
Throughout all of this, there was always a Black Cat watching them.
"The investigation has confirmed that this Black Cat is a member of the organization, but its current residence at the Liang Family's house speaks volumes."
The group discussed their attitude towards the organization for a whole day, but still couldn't decide how to handle it.
After everyone left, Tao Yun stayed behind to tidy up the materials on the table and left with Director Chen.
Wang Ding also packed up his belongings, and looking at Elder Ju who hadn't gotten up, he asked worriedly, "Elder Ju, are you alright?"
Elder Ju shook his head, clutching his heart. "It's nothing, just old age, an old ailment."
As he spoke, he looked at Wang Ding and asked with a smile, "When people get old, they have to think more about many things and are more cautious in their actions, unlike you young people who have so much drive."
