Chapter 556: Chapter 336 You just mentioned The Hustlers, right?_2
But in reality,
you were just here delivering food, and the money from deliveries still had to subsidize your actual workplace.
He softly said,
“This is the Everday Commerce, a Constant Star Level special force related to the Spirit King’s background. Simply put, though it doesn’t control many worlds, it became a top-tier power with its background and highly competitive technologies.”
“And we…The Hustlers Sect…”
Bai Yilin softly said, “Although we are few in number, all are the most talented elites, even though we are just emerging.”
“But… we possess limitless potential.”
Jiang Zhi’s eyelids twitched.
He could feel that Bai Yilin was trying his best.
A person not adept at speaking or lying, Bai Yilin had already tried his best to fill in and construct positive statements.
You remained silent.
He wasn’t a fool, even without using his pupil traits, he could see that Bai Yilin was already struggling.
“So why did you join this Hustlers Sect…someone like you, who wouldn’t settle for being under others?”
Bai Yilin paused,
“If there really is a reason, it would only be one… everything is because of our… Sect Hierarch…”
You paused, this time you could see the change in Bai Yilin’s emotions, which seemed very solemn.
This also made you curious about the so-called Sect Hierarch.
“So, he is the Sect Hierarch, huh? He seems like a very reliable man.”
Frost couldn’t help but look towards Long Xun standing not far away… he could sense that this man had formidable strength.
Jiang Zhi shook his head, “Uh, no, that guy isn’t here, and that term you just mentioned has nothing to do with him…”
You suddenly spoke in a low and calm voice,
“So this Everday Commerce is your chosen Pioneering Team, right.”
“Yes.” Bai Yilin lightly nodded. “For now, it differs quite a bit from other pioneering teams.”
Simply put, it didn’t treat countless people as disposable, and the distribution was fair without exploitation.
It also made people within the pioneering team fight hard, with very few slacking off, this… seems to be the result of decisions made by the higher-ups at Everday Commerce.
“But….”
You frowned slightly, your eyes cautious, “Something’s not quite right.”
“Ever since a while ago, that Artificial Body Warrior’s emotions have been amiss.”
“And he keeps his gaze fixed on us.”
“Have you noticed the machine by his ear blinking? He’s quietly recording our conversation…and reporting to someone higher up.”
Bai Yilin frowned slightly, looking back, indeed…as you said.
There were traces of that.
“However, don’t worry, from the moment he started doing this, I’ve already disrupted him with my Spiritual Energy.” You handled things meticulously, calmly speaking.
“This Everday Commerce… seems not so simple.”
“And for some reason unknown to us, it seems we have been targeted.”
Jiang Zhi and Bai Yilin instinctively looked towards… Shandian, who was now resting on Long Xun’s shoulder at this moment.
If there was any chance of them being targeted, it could be… Shandian might have been discovered.
After all, Mechanical Life is entirely different from Artificial Bodies.
If…they were targeted, whether it would be friendly or driven by greed, Bai Yilin and Jiang Zhi were unsure.
This was also the reason they had always avoided contact.
At this moment.
If it were revealed, they would have to find a way out.
After all,
the secrets on Shandian and those technologies were extremely advanced, not to mention the connections to Bai Qixing and the background behind him.
Meanwhile,
Nancy and Simon, Sword Star and some Superpower Captains were at a temporary base.
They were originally discussing the next steps.
At this moment, Simon suddenly received communication from outside, he abruptly stood up, somewhat shocked,
“Are you sure, are you sure they just mentioned ‘The Hustlers’?”
Nancy’s pupils shifted slightly.
About half a minute later,
Simon inhaled deeply, hanging up the communicator.
“They seem to have mentioned ‘The Hustlers Sect,’ but before they could record it, it was detected and blocked.”
Nancy was also somewhat stirred, damn…she hadn’t expected to suddenly find a clue now.
Sword Star remained calm beside them,
“Both of you, cool down.”
“Firstly, just mentioning these three words doesn’t prove they are members, and we cannot rule out hearsay, enemy suspicion, etc. You need to be prepared to identify.”
He knew Su Buxian and The Hustlers Sect, though he wasn’t optimistic about them.
After all, in the Present World, without a background, without connections, without strength, creating an organization from scratch.
The likelihood is that one remains Obscure forever, and breaking out requires countless years of accumulation and settlement.
Of course, more likely is that just as one starts gaining some fame, they are easily wiped out by other powerful forces.
“I know.”
Nancy’s eyes gradually calmed. He was now Seventh Rank, the highest position just under the extraordinary, a major figure wherever he went.
Different from that past host who only wanted to cling to others for survival, he had become more stable and thoughtful.
“Anyway, let’s talk to them first. This is our only clue for now.”
Nancy softly said.
Five minutes later.
Bai Yilin and Jiang Zhi, including Long Xun and the Shandian on his shoulder, seemed slightly tense at the moment.
They looked at the Superpower Cyborg Captain leading them.
“We’re indeed being watched,” Jiang Zhi quietly communicated through Spiritual Energy.
Shandian grumbled: “I didn’t expose us though.”
It was disguised well, and it hadn’t sensed anyone probing.
But…
Everyone was on high alert, so… there must be…
Long Xun also paused, looking at the Superpower Cyborg Captain in front:
“Be careful, this Artificial Body Warrior… has reached a very powerful stage of Spiritual Energy, not to mention the prosthetic weapons he handles with ease.”
Bai Yilin gently said: “You has already prepared. If the other side shows signs of hostility, they will act.”
This is the power of companions.
Although the Everday Commerce is a large force, harboring High sequence big shots and backed by the Spirit King,
They will neither bow nor admit defeat.
And when they stepped into the stronghold created with their spatial power, Bai Yilin… they paused slightly.
Because there weren’t many people inside, no Superpower Cyborg Warriors were present.
Only two people.
One was Simon who held a high position, the current leader of Everday Commerce, with profound eyes.
The other was… the super celebrity Nancy, fervently worshiped by countless people.
Nancy smiled lightly: “You’ve finally arrived.”
“Please, take a seat.”
He snapped his fingers lightly.
Seats rose from the ground where they stood.
“Respected leaders…” Jiang Zhi and the others didn’t sit down.
“We’d rather stand, may we ask what this is about?”
They naturally remained alert.
Nancy suddenly chuckled.
Bai Yilin’s body trembled slightly.
He had just been in touch with You using a Tool, and the Investigation Skill left on him was effortlessly erased.
Bai Yilin looked at Nancy warily.
This is what being Seventh Rank means.
Even with abilities sealed to Seventh Rank, he could easily… suppress their power.
Nancy smiled slightly: “Don’t be nervous, we have no ill intentions.”
“We’ve called you here just to ask a few individual questions.”
“Sit down, have some tea.”
Nancy snapped his fingers, and some cups of hot tea appeared on the seats that had risen.
At this moment.
Long Xun and the others noticed that this so-called stronghold was actually a space… created by the fearsome Seventh Rank powerful figure before them!
“The opposition is terrifyingly strong.”
Shandian rasped: “But don’t worry, if worst comes to worst, use me for an opportunity… I have ways to save myself.”
Bai Yilin didn’t respond, but calmly said: “So, what would you like to ask, respected leaders?”
He wasn’t the type to abandon his companions, the same as before their downfall, and when facing the man with glasses.
At this moment.
Bai Yilin still had his spunk!
He was ready to blow up if necessary!
However.
Things didn’t develop as they had imagined.
Simon just brewed a cup of tea, gently sipping it: “I’d like to ask…”
He paused:
“You just mentioned The Hustlers Sect… right?”
