Chapter 412: Chapter 323 Are You All Like This?_2

She had no taboos when it came to this topic.

"Aren’t you an important figure in the Ahn family?" Zheng Yichen knew that Ahn Longling was in charge of the Ahn family’s local combat troops and that a woman of her young age sitting in this position could not be lacking in ability and strength.

"Not all high-ranking members are the same. Within the structure of a pyramid, those at the very tip are always the minority, and I’m not there," Ahn Longling said quite casually. There was no need for secrecy, as family structures tended to be similar. But even within a large family, maintaining a pyramid structure...

...For the members within the family, even those at the very bottom of the pyramid actually lived much better lives than ordinary people.

The reason? The family pyramid is situated at the upper levels of the societal pyramid. Even those at the very bottom of the family’s hierarchy are guaranteed a spot in the upper echelons of society’s pyramid. Even if they’re at the lowest level of that upper layer, they’re still better off than those below.

Zheng Yichen did not continue to ask. He wasn’t all that interested in the affairs of the Ahn family. Maintaining the current cooperative status was sufficient—a laboratory supported by a wealthy woman had already brought many benefits to his side, although these benefits had not yet played out their true potential.

But for the two witches, the extensive equipment support allowed their magic research to advance at a rapid pace. The kind of netting was a new type of tool created by Katrina, which, when used in conjunction with protection magic, served well for both offense and defense.

Worn on oneself, it could defend against evil-type attacks, and when used offensively, it could greatly restrict the existence of evil.

Due to its lack of direct lethality, the binding effect was made very strong. The first time the tool was used was against an Evil Spirit, where it had an excellent performance, successfully eliminating the possibility for the Evil Spirit to escape.

However, there were some matters Zheng Yichen still cared about, such as the situation in the Great World. Tia had told Zheng Yichen that Dusk never interfered with Proxy Agents and Dusk mercenaries’ development on their native land, as long as that development did not disrupt the basic foundation of the world itself.

Even taking a significant number of lives wouldn’t provoke Dusk’s interference.

Zheng Yichen wondered if, a very long time ago, the Great World was a normal world too. Perhaps someone discovered something and started from scratch, turning the Great World into what the Dusk mercenaries now called the Great World.

Was it also the biggest culprit affecting a vast number of alien worlds?

Then, could his side possibly create a force that, over time, could stand against the Great World?

The real question was whether such an organization, once established, could be maintained over the long term. The Great World, by pillaging and annexing other worlds, continuously enhanced their world’s level, which meant that their power was growing extremely quickly. Other organizations trying to oppose them, either had to emulate the Great World or find another way.

Finding another way was a big question. With the environmental ceiling and resources of the other side continuously accumulating and improving, how could they compete?

Unless a group of impressively powerful beings descended from the heavens, rapidly reached max level, could traverse the Great World, and in one sector teamed up to target the upper echelons of the Boundary Breaking Faction with a beheading strategy—and all these powerful beings had to be Proxy Agents akin to Zheng Yichen since the possibility of betrayal from Dusk mercenaries was not negligible.

Proxy Agents were bound to Dusk to the death, and in the worst-case scenario, they had no new options but to fight desperately. A chance for reservation?

With a chance for reservation, they would have to go straight into fighting desperately even more.

Zheng Yichen sighed silently. The idea was beautiful, but the practicality of implementation was daunting. If one did not follow the confrontational path of the Great World, the local world’s environment had to be very high. Moreover, such a local world had to be aware of the existence of the Great World, fully understand the threat it posed, and establish departments to oppose and defend against the Great World.

Currently, Zheng Yichen only knew of Chiang Wei’s world and that world full of light as having potential. But he estimated that even the environments of those two worlds fell short when compared to the Great World. As for the Apocalypse World and that apocalyptic martial world... forget it.

When people are nearly extinct, how can they confront the Great World?

The environment of Hazy City was even lower, barely one level above rock bottom. To stand against the Great World in such an environment, they had to continuously accumulate various high-end knowledge, allowing the people of Hazy City to exert combat power far beyond their current realm.

```

The conditions in Hazy City were quite suitable, but most people here thought of using the environment of Hazy City as a stepping stone. The Ahn family was like this, and other families were pretty much the same, as long as they accumulated enough, they would directly leave such an environment to swagger in higher-level worlds.

In the past, they were top-level existences, and with the influence of high-level environments, those who went there could easily possess great strength and long lifespans, among other things. Why bother constantly confronting such dangerous enemies for the ’world’s’ safety?

Such responsibility was too great, if it was a king fighting against invaders, that was because a king innately had such a duty, fighting to defend his territory, but when it comes to a world, who could claim to be the king of a world? Even if there were those who thought so, they were self-proclaimed, and the world itself didn’t care.

Retracting his thoughts, Zheng Yichen said, "So you also feel somewhat compelled?"

"It depends on the situation," Ahn Longling didn’t deny Zheng Yichen’s words, but at their level, there weren’t many things that could truly compel them.

As for the question Zheng Yichen had just asked, it was also an indication from the Ahn family to go with the flow. If Zheng Yichen was an old man, the Ahn family would probably come up with something that could restore youth. After saying this, Ahn Longling additionally said to Zheng Yichen, "Such things can easily satisfy a man’s vanity, right?"

"That stuff can’t be eaten as food, and with my current capabilities, if I wanted to satisfy my vanity, I could directly get what I want with my bare hands, right?"

"That’s true," Ahn Longling nodded. If Zheng Yichen really wanted to cause trouble now, he would be even more dangerous than that Evil Spirit.

The Evil Spirit had a wide range of influence, but it was too confident and underestimated the local forces, and was taken down. Zheng Yichen was different. As long as a Proxy Agent didn’t die, the possibilities were endless, even if the local world collapsed, with the environment of Hazy City one could find an Alien Phenomenon and escape.

At that time, the Evil Spirit had no chance to do so. The local forces of Hazy City mobilized and sealed any Alien Phenomena that could be sealed. The Ahn family’s Alien Phenomenon hunting group didn’t engage in the battle, but they exerted effort when pursuing at the end, although it ended up being inconsequential.

But to prevent just in case, such actions had to be taken. When the Evil Spirit wanted to escape through an Alien Phenomenon, the hunting group would surely give chase. It was best if they could resolve it, but if not, they had to guard the Alien Phenomenon and not give the Evil Spirit a chance.

"However, speaking of true sincerity, Ahn Ke is probably the highest among us."

Zheng Yichen shook his head, "I’m actually the least familiar with her."

"You could consider it a quirk of research-oriented people. Even if your appearance was ordinary, in her eyes, you would be a peerlessly handsome man or hunk through a beauty filter," Ahn Longling said this with a sense of humor, but the reality wasn’t far from this.

With Zheng Yichen’s special physique, as long as he looked passable, in Ahn Ke’s eyes, he was a charm-maximized entity, and Zheng Yichen’s appearance was anything but ordinary.

"Now there are some in the Ahn family who want to make contact with you but have no chance."

"Women?"

"What else? Ambition isn’t limited to men or women; those men just don’t have the conditions."

"... Talking to me about this here really doesn’t matter."

Ahn Longling laughed, "You had no intention of getting involved with the Ahn family from the beginning, so talking about this with you is inconsequential. Ignoring personal factors, and speaking from the interests of individuals and small groups, we too wouldn’t want outsiders to meddle in certain matters."

"Can I understand what that ’personal factor’ is?" He was interested in that.

Ahn Longling stood up, smiling, "The personal factor? That would be choosing a target that’s already familiar and quite agreeable when faced with an unavoidable situation in the future, wouldn’t you say?"
