Chapter 1008: Chapter 735: One Connection Is Enough
This mission was highly efficient, but it was also the most draining on the spirit.
However, he had to admit, the Illusory Eye was indeed incredibly useful, so useful that his new equipment needed to be upgraded again.
As Zheng Yichen slept, Tanshia Firlo took off her little shoes and curled up on Zheng Yichen in a young dragon’s sleeping posture for a nap.
When Zheng Yichen was at home, he always put her to bed in a small bedroom, but now she had found her opportunity.
When he woke up, Tanshia Firlo was still lazily resting, her head on Zheng Yichen’s stomach, sleeping like a log, and even pinching her face didn’t wake her.
"Such a heavy sleeper?" Zheng Yichen flicked his fingers in the air and, through the function of the Illusory Eye, browsed the news of this world, where the events in Ring City had become a worldwide sensation.
Not only that, but the news also showed assassinations and arrests of important figures in various countries. Within half a day, the world had descended into chaos.
But it hadn’t fallen into complete disarray; the presence of the Illusory Eye helped restore order quickly. After all, those with this item and those without were entirely different classes of people.
Zheng Yichen saw many netizens commenting that they thought it was the end of the world at first and hoarded resources. Now, as the situation had stabilized a bit, those things ended up stuck in their hands...
Just the salt they bought alone could last two hundred years, not to mention other stuff. If it had been the apocalypse, they could have lived quite long on those resources. But after official confirmation, it turned out it wasn’t the end of the world after all.
This caused them quite a headache.
Meanwhile, there were also many posts related to evil cults, but none of the most popular posts were deleted or restricted.
The reason was simple: the high-profile cults had already been sanctioned on the same day, with an impressively high efficiency, and the actions were even recorded in videos below the related posts...
The cults claimed they could save the world, save mankind, and then they were promptly dealt with by the military, unable to save even themselves.
The same went for other, even more insane comments.
Of course, the events in Ring City couldn’t be covered up; Ring City was razed to the ground, and the maps had not yet been updated—the location of Ring City was still findable on them.
But if one went to the actual location, they might think it was a volcanic area post-eruption.
The authorities couldn’t hide such information, and alongside some intel on Boundary Breakers, they had to release some substantial information to calm the public.
As for the rest...
After Tanshia woke up, Zheng Yichen carried her out of the infirmary. Sure enough, the once quiet Dusk Cathedral had become exceptionally lively upon his return.
Special envoys from various countries were gathered here, and there were also quite a few Dusk mercenaries.
These Dusk mercenaries had previously gone into hiding and not left this world right away.
Zheng Yichen, with his keen hearing, picked up plenty of useful information from those Dusk mercenaries—they were signing agreements with local state-owned enterprises...
The uniqueness of the Illusory Eye made the Dusk mercenaries take it very seriously, and private enterprises need not even think about getting involved in such matters at the moment.
Zheng Yichen wondered whether he should establish a connection with this world. With more worlds connected, he was getting a bit stretched thin.
But could he afford not to establish a connection?
If he was too busy, why not just hire a secretary? There were people at home who could be secretaries!
So, Zheng Yichen set Tanshia Firlo down and walked over. The envoys here were both men and women. Before he could speak, someone had already approached him.
Zheng Yichen had slept for a day, and these people had already learned too much about Zheng Yichen from the Dusk mercenaries. If Zheng Yichen had directly left this world, they would have no way to deal with him.
But since he hadn’t left, it made sense to establish more connections with the Proxy Agent.
"I don’t have much time. You better pick a representative, otherwise I’ll just randomly choose someone," Zheng Yichen spoke first.
All he needed to do was leave a Storage Cabinet here as a coordinate; who the person here was, was less important. The key was to get more research data from this place.
Lilith had tremendous computing power, and she was frequently able to upgrade herself, but when it came to research and development, it was often faster for the people of a world to do the work.
Although once Lilith recorded those developed technologies, she could learn and use them quickly.
A representative was quickly pushed forward.
"Proxy Agent, my name is Jing Meng from Huanyao Kingdom. May I ask if you wish to establish a stable connection with us?"
They had learned too much information from those Dusk mercenaries, and although it came at a cost, those costs weren’t significant. After all, what they valued was a future connection, hoping to develop their world into a stable ’logistics’ base.
The leaders behind them could see this, and they were willing to continue this cooperation, considering that the Dusk mercenaries would provide items from other worlds in future transactions.
Not to mention, just the biological samples from other worlds alone could bring immense research value, not to say continuously acquiring new materials.
What these Dusk mercenaries valued was the Illusory Eye production technology of their world.
"Of course, since you’ve come forward, it’s decided that it will be you," Zheng Yichen said with a smile, the corner of his eye displaying the data of this young woman - Huanyao Kingdom, the main country that produces the Illusory Spirit series of Illusory Eyes, which could also cater to the production of the Demon Spirit series of Illusory Eyes.
Although there is competition between the two types of eyes, this competition is of a benign nature. The Demon Spirit type leans more towards military use, while the Illusory Spirit series is more civilianized.
The other party, as an envoy arranged by their country, had a reason to stand out from a group of people.
Zheng Yichen did not want to waste too much time here, mainly because he was unfamiliar with the place, and he still had other matters to attend to.
It suffices to establish the Storage Cabinet connection, the rest? Beauties? It’s not like he hasn’t seen beauties before.
"Ah... okay, understood," Jing Meng was momentarily stunned, then involuntarily glanced towards another place where Dusk mercenaries still remained. Those Dusk mercenaries did not have the efficiency of Zheng Yichen.
In fact, she wanted to have more interaction with Zheng Yichen, especially since she came on a mission. It would be better to learn more about Proxy Agents, but with the Proxy Agent acting so decisively, it made it difficult for her to bring up other topics.
Their understanding of this Proxy Agent was too limited; the information obtained from the Dusk mercenaries was incomplete.
Zheng Yichen became famous, recognizable by some Dusk mercenaries who had watched the recordings, because they knew of the big moves this Proxy Agent had made.
He had forcefully penetrated the origin of the Boundary Breakers, slaughtering his way to the Dusk Territory, from the enemy’s main camp to the safe zone, even bringing serious impact to the Great World.
As a result, some technologies became difficult to use in the Great World. Their world was the lucky one.
This world only has Boundary Breakers, without the higher-tiered God Descenders, thus during the proxy agent’s battles, there were no God Descenders to interfere.
And successfully frightened those Boundary Breakers into giving up their Breakworld attempts, opting for a last-desperate counterattack instead.
The problem is... their world knows too little about Dusk, not much about the Great World either, lacking a direct impression of what the Dusk mercenaries had talked about...
But the strength demonstrated by Zheng Yichen made none of them dare to underestimate him.
Furthermore, although the Dusk mercenaries treat Proxy Agents as allies, they really do not want to encounter Proxy Agents on the job, as it would reduce their rewards.
The Dusk mercenaries remaining here just wanted to see if this world could survive.
If it could survive, they would establish contacts; if not... since this world is about to be destroyed, they might as well have a large-scale zero-cost shopping spree.
The Dusk mercenaries did not directly say this, but the think tanks of those countries, upon analyzing the intelligence gathered, were absolutely certain that a significant portion of the Dusk mercenaries harbored such thoughts.
Considering that if the world were truly on the brink of ruin, their actions would be understandable; after all, when everyone’s dead, all the remaining things become ownerless.
"May I... ask you a few questions?" After Zhong Yichen had set up the Storage Cabinet, Jing Meng asked cautiously. Having scant knowledge of the Proxy Agent before her, she had managed to place herself in a very vulnerable position.
Even though this Proxy Agent stepped out with a child, according to the records, the white-haired little girl accompanying Zheng Yichen was that kind of dragon from the stories.
Even though it was a giant dragon rather than a Divine Dragon, it was still a dragon, an existence that belongs only to myths and fantasies. The related video material had been used for research by the military.
Allowing those using the Illusory Eye of change type to conduct research, they had to improve their transformations based on fantasies of mythical creatures, but now they had substantive data records, physical references to work with, which allows for breakthroughs in this area of research.
There was also this reason for cooperating with other Dusk mercenaries; as long as the Dusk mercenaries could provide special biological materials from other worlds, they could utilize them.
Of course, what this drives is not only the development of the change type but also knowledge of magic, technology, etc., from other worlds, which in turn could promote the development of the Energy type and control type.
However, having only video leaves something to be desired, and a very ambitious suggestion was made by someone - hoping to scan the body information of that dragon...
This proposal was outright rejected.
The human high command that completed the purges had not grown so arrogant as to lose the reverence due to the strong. Forget about requests, this was something you couldn’t even ask about!
Zheng Yichen’s accompanying child is a dragon, and although he himself had never transformed, some suspected that he too might not inherently be human, possibly another human-shaped giant dragon.
Perhaps the father of that small white dragon.
"Go ahead and ask," Zheng Yichen said generously, thinking of the comprehensive information provided by the military to Lilith.
