Luo Le, Xue Nian, and Lu Run were sitting on the bench in the interrogation room. Facing the suspicious gaze of the Triangle Town guard, Luo Le scratched his neck and said, "Don't be afraid of what I'm going to say next."

"Say."

"The arrest warrant issued by GTB, and the charges brought against Li Aoz by Frostplate - all are framed."

"Oh."

"What do you mean 'oh'? What's your reaction?" Luo Le rolled his eyes. "Li Aoz slaughtered all Nethermark Humanity and liberated the human experimenters - such people were framed and framed by Frostplate, don't you have any mood swings at all?"

"So, what you mean is: Didn't Li Aoz destroy Nethermark Humanity?" the interrogator said suspiciously.

"Well, that's not true. He did destroy Nethermark Humanity, but we have found evidence that Nethermark Humanity has done many evil things."

Luo Le said, handed over a copy of the video, and then muttered in the channel voice:

"I took a look. These guards all started at level 15. Outland actually has such an awesome settlement?"

"Don't worry about that for now. Are you sure you can find Li Aoz when such a straight ball comes in?" Xue Nian complained, "Lao Luo, although working overtime has been a bit hard recently and you have to work more than eight hours a day, is your brain a bit overloaded?"

"I think Brother Luo's method is very feasible." Lu Run actually thinks it makes sense. "Li Aoz is so popular in Outland. If he appears in Triangle Town, he must be a guest of the local warlord. We directly tell Li Aoz to help him clear his grievances. He should be willing to see us."

"Not necessarily. I took a look at the information provided by the company. Oakland·Jute, the warlord of Triangle Town, has weapons-grade enriched uranium in his hands. Wouldn't such a person become wary when he sees Li Aoz?" Xue Nian is not optimistic. "Besides, look at the identities of the three of us? Two community gangsters and one GTB insider - especially you, with such a sensitive identity, do you think Li Aoz will trust us?"

During the conversation, the door to the interrogation room opened, and the security guard immediately stood up and saluted, shouting loudly, "Triangle Alliance!"

"Thank you for your hard work."

A childish male voice sounded, and immediately, a group of well-equipped guards surrounded a short, thin young man who walked over. The young man in a thick coat showed a friendly smile as he walked, and said laughingly to the man next to him, "Frostplate There seem to be more and more enlightened men in recent years. In addition to you Mr. Li Aoz, more and more men choose to leave the country, even if they break into Outland."

"It's just a historical trend, not to mention that Outland also has a well-constructed town like Auckland Lord."

"Haha, I can't take it seriously. Compared with the real country, Triangle Town is so far behind."

The young man chuckled, turned around and took Li Aoz down to sit down, facing these three Frostplate enemies directly through a layer of bulletproof glass.

In the eyes of Luo Le and others, Triangle Town Lord Oakland·Jute just looks like a Outland handsome boy with white hair, red eyes, and pale skin. If he weren't wearing a thick commander's uniform, he wouldn't look like a decisive warlord in his movements. Instead, he would exude a kind and gentle affinity.

However, although Auckland Lord is already a handsome young man, compared with Li Aoz next to him, he is as dim as a firefly to a bright moon.

Since he was not exposed to fighting for a short period of time, Li Aoz changed out of the sloppy suit that the garbage man wore that was mainly practical, and bought a knitted sweater vest from the local area, plus a shirt, canvas trousers, and a washed cotton jacket.

Lu Run started recording right away. The outfit of Li Aoz is secondary. The main thing is that the person and temperament are well grasped. It can be used to cut the PV of the promotional video to promote the colorful clothing system of "Star Abyss".

"This is the real person Li Aoz. He looks really handsome." Luo Le's voice was a bit sour. "Can't he dress more gorgeously? Then I can attribute the reason to the effect of dressing up. When players see it, they will definitely be motivated to spend money to buy skins and fashions."

"Why don't you go to work in the planning department?" Xue Nian commented sharply.

"Don't get close to the planning department of the game company, you will lose your parents."

"There has never been such a thing..."

Lu Run concentrated on adjusting the camera and pointed it at Li Aoz who was standing aside. He noticed that this Overlord Class NPC, who had extraordinary charm and strength, was not as violent and terrifying as he seemed in the previous plot. Li Aoz, who had calmed down, even had a sense of déjà vu as a quiet beauty.

If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, it would be difficult to connect the calm man in front of you with Cataclysm of the Mortal World, who had previously slaughtered all the members of Nethermark Humanity.

Speaking of which, he did not see Qiu Ran, nor Du Zexin, nor any of the survivors of Nethermark Humanity.

Since getting on the subway, they can no longer see the video image.

Lu Run thought about it and felt that they should have left. Those survivors and Qiu Ran should have gone home.

"Hello, three visitors from Frostplate."

Auckland said with a smile, "Old Era has a saying, which roughly means: For those who come from afar, be prepared with fine wine and shotguns to entertain you. I am a warlord, a rough man, and do not understand cultural etiquette. Whether I entertain you with fine wine or shotguns depends on your attitude."

The three of them discussed it for a while and decided to let Luo Le, the big enemy, come out to talk. His charm attribute is 5, the highest among the three.

"Tsk, you have to let me take action - watch, how to communicate with NPC in the most authentic and natural way, I will only demonstrate once."

Luo Le shrugged, opened the system interface, and found [Disguise Mode] skillfully.

The next moment, in the eyes of Xue Nian and Lu Run, Luo Le's interface instantly changed and appeared as an 'everyday NPC'. At the same time, his ID was also transformed from the name regulated by the company to a strange male name Frostplate: Qi Huaimu.

He coughed twice and said naturally in a Frostplate suburban accent, "Hey, I just like to communicate with happy people - to be honest, it is true that we are from Frostplate, and it is true that we are employed by GTB."

Under the surprised gaze of Lu Run, Luo Le seemed to have turned into a real game NPC 'Qi Huaimu' for an instant, and said easily, "My name is Qi Huaimu, and this is the end of the same street as me, Xue Parker, as for Mr. Lu Ao · Wick - well, he is indeed an employee of GTB, but Brother Mutsu has a sense of justice. After accidentally seeing the original video of Li Aoz massacring Nethermark Humanity, he discovered the clues and decided to come forward and expose him."

His grammatical habits seemed to have changed into Street Punk of Frostplate, leaving Lu Run stunned.

What happened?

Has this been taken away from you? Why did he even hang up the voice channel? "This is [Disguise Mode]. It is currently in the testing stage. It will be officially completed and launched during the internal testing period."

Xue Nian explained, "No matter how well we players understand the plot and cultural background, there will still be a big gap between us and native NPCs."

"So Brother Luo is now..."

"Bring up Persona Override from the body of the NPC you recruited."

Xue Nian explained, "This is also the system we are currently testing mainly to enhance the player's sense of involvement. Even players with social phobia or poor language organization skills can still communicate with NPCs freely."

"Well, I think it's more practical than... adding a voice system built into the game." Lu Run thought for a while and said, "Look, once Brother Luo's [Disguise Mode] is turned on, the background plug-in function will no longer be available. It will definitely be troublesome for players to communicate by then."

"Didn't you play the game without blackmailing your teammates?"

"... I think most people come to play games because they don't have any fixed friends."

Xue Nian was silent for a moment and said:

"When will you and Luo Le report to the planning department?"

"Well, my mother is in good health and treats me very well. I don't want to lose her yet..."
