  “Mr Iron Bull, I am not kidding. I really admire your computer skills. I would like to sincerely invite you to join us. Remuneration wise, we can discuss it slowly.” 9527 sincerely said.

  Obviously, Wang Yu’s data made all his killing records seemed abnormal.

  As the world’s first virtual reality game, > had the best talent and equipment in their research and development department. However, 9527 could not find anything wrong with Wang Yu’s account. This made 9527 extremely shock.

  To be able to cheat under such strict monitoring, this hacker’s skills had to be unimaginably impressive. It would such a waste to only play games with such skills. If they could poach him, there would be unlimited potential for both the game and technological development.

  Hearing what 9527 said, he could tell that 9527 really treated him as a hacker. He composed himself and said, “This is really based on my martial arts. I am not even familiar with a computer. How can I be a hacker?”


  “If you agree, our company’s best offer is to give you some shares. You will definitely earn more than by playing the game.” 9527’s offer was very attractive, making everyone else envious. It was shares, a treatment which only the two main designers of the entire company had.

  “Enough, I’m going back!” Wang Yu saw how he and 9527 were of different frequency and hence, wanted to leave.

  9527 did not try to keep him but once again sincerely said, “I hope you can consider…… We are updating our technology. The external modification loophole will be fixed very soon. Based on your abilities, you should not be stuck here.”


  “Modify your head!” Wang Yu was upset. If you have the ability, fix the loophole. Anyways, he did not externally modify anything.

  Wang Yu did not want to haggle on with 9527 so he asked the rest, “Who can send me back?”


  Little Zhang looked at 9527 and after 9527 gave his permission, Little Zhang said, “Please hold on, I will send you back now.”


  Just then, Wang Yu recalled and asked 9527, “So what was the results of the check?”


  9527’s expression changed and hesitantly said, “The data is normal…… but……”


  9527 was still wasting his time. Wang Yu interrupted him and said, “Since there is no problem, there is a compensation right? What compensation is it?”


  “Erm……” 9527 did not know how to answer him instantly. Little Zhang said, “Based on our practice, we will give you a tool or a usable equipment as compensation.”


  “Oh, I see.” Wang Yu rubbed his chin and asked, “I am not short of any equipment and all. Can I have something else?”


  “That is not impossible…… but what do you want?” Little Zhang asked.

  There was a limit as to what a GM could give. High level tools and quests had special trigger criteria and so, they could not give them out.

  “I just want to ask a question……”


  “So long as it does not involve any high level hidden quests or tools, we can give clues as a reward.” Little Zhang said as though he was relief of a burden. He thought Wang Yu wanted an impressive weapon or pet……

  “Who should I look for to trigger the Atlanta’s Key storyline?” Wang Yu asked.

  Little Zhang decisively replied, “Sorry, this belongs to a high level scenario in which both you and I have no rights to know. You can ask another question.”


  Wow, how daring of him to ask for such a high level clue. Even the monitoring team’s GM only knew a bit about it. Even if he knew the details, he would be fired if he leaked a single word.

  “Another question?” Wang Yu thought hard and said, “Who is the most knowledgeable person in Twilight City?”


  “F*ck……” Little Zhang shivered. This was the same question.

  “Mr Iron Bull’s question is very reasonable.” 9527 interrupted as Little Zhang was about to reject his question.

  “Chief He……” Little Zhang looked at 9527 in disbelief, as though he was dreaming.

  9527 said, “Atlanta’s Key is a high level hidden quest but the most knowledgeable NPC of Twilight City is not confidential. Is there anything wrong with what I said?”


  “No, no problem, but……”


  “Since there is no problem, Mr Iron Bull should be given an answer.” 9527 said.

  “Alright.” Little Zhang replied and told Wang Yu, “I have already messaged you the NPC’s location coordinates and name. You will receive it when you return to the game. May I know how else can I help you?”


  “Send me back!” Wang Yu said with a smile.

  “Ok!” Little Zhang typed the keyboard and Wang Yu’s body disappeared from the checking room.

  Watching Wang Yu disappear, 9527’s expression became solemn then said, “Past and archived data may have loopholes and discrepancy. From now on, let’s monitor his every move in live time!”


  “Noted!” Everyone in the monitoring team said in one voice.

  At the same time, in a tavern in Twilight City, everyone in Quan Zhen Sect was looking nervous.

  Ming Du swirled a wine glass and said, “F*ck, Old Bull has been gone for so long, did he really commit a crime……”


  Hearing what Ming Du said, everyone became even more depressed.

  If Wang Yu really used external modifications, Quan Zhen Sect benefitted the most from it. Someone may be implicated. Of course, most of them were worried about Wang Yu as after all, Wang Yu was the main suspect. At most they could play another game but Wang Yu’s life would be ruined. Soaring Dragons company was extremely wealthy. If Wang Yu messed around with their signature game, they would definitely sue him until he has nothing left.

  Yang Nuo threw a wine cup at him and scolded, “Stop saying such things. Don’t they know that you guys have not met? And is that external modification? He has practised martial arts for tens of years before he has such abilities. How did it become external modification?”


  “I am just worried about him, not suspecting him. Why are you so anxious? Do you want to start trouble!” Ming Du was also unsettled. After being drenched in wine, he instantly flared up, taking out his staff and rolled up his sleeves, ready to confront Yang Nuo……

  “Damn, what are the two of you quarreling about!” The rest quickly tried to calm them down. Fearless tried to smooth things over as he said, “Old Li is right, we are just worried. Quarrelling won’t solve anything. Let’s think how to explain to his wife……”


  “Explain what?” At this moment, Wang Yu appeared on a table in the tavern out of nowhere.

  “Oh? It’s Uncle Bull!” Seeing Wang Yu suddenly appear, Vainglory shrieked in excitement.

  “Old Bull? Are you alright!’ Everyone else was surprised and elated.

  “Good boy!” Wang Yu patted Vainglory’s head. He looked at Yang Nuo and Ming Du who looked ready to fight, Fearless along with the rest, and said, “I’m alright, what are you two up to? Have you found the most knowledgeable NPC?”


  Everyone saw how Wang Yu safely came back and was in such a good mood, Quan Zhen Sect felt relieved. They also did not mention how worried they were about him. They pretended as if nothing happened and said, “What’s there to find? We have looked everywhere but there isn’t one. We searched until these two idiots almost fought!”


  “Haha, you bunch of amateurs, follow me!”
