Chapter 251: Chapter 251: The Scandal at Jingguan Explodes
The secretary chuckled, “You’ve all seen the information that has been transferred up from the center below, and there’s no issue. Her background has been cross-verified by multiple departnts; she’s quite a promising talent. The latest news is that the training hall has marked her combat courses as Level 3 intensity. At 19 years old, her physical fitness is astonishing. Hang her file up, and don’t pay attention to any complaints without solid evidence. If we can’t handle a bit of public opinion, then there really is no point in running this website.”
“Yes, secretary.”
The custor service imdiately tagged Ye Nai with a red mark, entering her into the special seedling database. Those who progress quickly and show potential, once they erge, are first observed here to prevent any form of online doxxing.
The country loves to stockpile talent; how could it allow every valuable pearl to be lost in the vast ocean of the people.
With her entry into the database, others wouldn’t be able to dox her anymore. Even if they went from the leaderboard to Ye Nai’s personal hopage, what they could see just a minute earlier, like her nickna and other public information, all of that disappeared in the next minute. Even the private ssage entrance was gone, as if she had deleted her account and run away.
Those in the know understood that this was a sign she was being safeguarded after her entry into the database. Even the onlookers who were just there for the excitent could vaguely guess that it ant ‘do not view’. So, the intentions and type of people who still kept hopping around and crying foul were quite obvious.
After hanging up the phone, Ye Nai deactivated the private ssaging feature on her personal background. Otherwise, her inbox, which was usually quiet save for the odd ad, was now cramd full. An enormous number of netizens had found her through the leaderboard, leaving a variety of ssages. At a glance, there were insults, rumors, pleas for patronage, requests for collaboration, and all kinds of comnts, with the majority being insults and lewd rumors.
Fortunately, she had previously reconfigured her personal background’s public information. The users who found her could only see her nickna, avatar, awakened superpower, and Training Level, as well as her recent leaderboard scores, but none of her real na, age, task records, or other personal privacy-related content.
After checking the public information one more ti, Ye Nai closed the page.
To these useless beings who could only rage impotently, Ye Nai felt that giving them one more glance was already too generous. They didn’t deserve it.
She also didn’t care about the surge in her follower count. Who isn’t a netizen these days? She knew full well that these followers were just there for the entertainnt, casually following and then forgetting about it. After three months, when they rembered, they’d just unfollow with a single click.
In the next two days, Ye Nai stuck to her routine: mornings at the training hall, afternoons studying in the hotel, and evenings taking walks, enjoying nightti snacks, and listening to the street gossip.
Her mother ssaged her to say that the boar at had arrived and indeed caused envy in the whole office. She divided the at on the spot, sharing portions with other colleagues and the leaders.
Ye Nai told her mother to send more in a week – pork, beef, deer, rabbit; she had all these herbivore ats available, rich in energy. Colleagues willing to pay could consider buying so; for others, don’t bother. The priority was to hook the leaders.
The next day, Yu Qing spread the word at work during casual conversations. For her own benefit, she had beco wiser.
“My eldest daughter found out that last ti I shared her sent at with all of you. She said she’d send more next week, including beef and deer at, to replenish in the cold weather. But she ntioned that this kind of at has a lot of energy, and ordinary people can’t eat much at once, so she’ll send just a small piece, sliced for stir-frying,” Yu Qing said with pride, genuinely bragging. She was delighted to see her colleagues crowd around her, asking for updates after having previously sampled the shared at.
“Oh my, Old Yu, I looked it up. The cost of transporting mutant beast at via a cold chain is expensive. The base rate for the express fee starts at a hundred for one kilogram. Just sending a small piece of at – that’s a loss. Count in, I’ll buy and share the shipping cost,” one of her nearing-retirent colleagues chid in enthusiastically.
Colleagues genuinely interested in buying echoed her sentint.
Those who didn’t want to buy quietly walked away, relishing the mory of the boar at while hesitating over the decision to purchase.
“Alright, count in too, I’ll buy. It’s perfect because we need to prepare for an elder’s birthday at ho.”
“Great, great, I’ll tell my daughter to prepare more.”
“Then let’s start a collaborative docunt, shall we? Everyone enters how much they want, and once it’s filled out, we don’t need to touch it again. If soone joins in, they can just add to the list.”
“Yeah, yeah, yeah, that works.”
“Okay, you guys get it sorted. Oh, and do we want beef or deer at?”
“Let’s go with beef for now, since it’s a bit cheaper than deer. We’ll stick to the cheaper option and see about next month when we get our paychecks.”
“Right, right, beef is fine. If it were deer at, my relatives, oh boy, let’s not even talk about it.”
“Huh, as if anyone’s family doesn’t have its issues, I get it.”
The colleagues got to work separately and managed to set up the collaboration docunt during lunch break. Everyone figured out how much at they needed, taking into account not just their own consumption but also their relatives and friends.
They also went to ask their team leader if he wanted to chip in.
The leader waved them off, saying they should handle it themselves. He reminded them to keep it away from the senior leader’s eyes, as it wouldn’t look good within the company.
After work, Yu Qing approached the team leader to ask for a shipping address to send his portion directly, ensuring that no one in the office would know. Only then did he get the leader’s address, which was his wife’s workplace.
When Yu Qing got ho, he sent the team leader’s address to Ye Nai. That night, Ye Nai packed up two pounds of beef. The following day at noon, after leaving the training gym, he drove straight to the Xueling Cold Chain’s station and sent the package off.
After eating lunch on the street and returning to his hotel, he lay on the couch browsing his phone and noticed that the trending topics had exploded.
A photo of an Otherworld enemy from the Five Bridges Secret Realm lying beside a stream had spread all over the internet, not a single one of the forty heads missing, all dead with peaceful expressions.
It was discovered by a private battle team. Initially, they noticed blood staining the upstream water and followed their curiosity upstream, where they stumbled upon this shocking scene. They raced out of the Secret Realm to spread the news.
Right below this trending topic was the news that the Five Bridges Secret Realm and surrounding Secret Realm Square and the nearby five streets were temporarily under martial law.
Now the whole internet was buzzing with speculation that the enemy had invaded again.
[The Secret Realm is still that damned Space Channel.]
[Why can’t we ever find that damned channel?]
[What’s the use of keeping the enemy outside the border? With so many Secret Realms across the country, they all serve as shortcuts for them.]
[Things have been calm for so many years, and now the enemy is on the move again. What can we do?]
[The enemy has an abundant supply of troops. Ever since the past, no matter how much we fight, they always have so many people. We can’t afford to waste our troop strength on them. They’ve swallowed up the nations around us, trapping us tightly. Once they swallow us up, the whole continent will beco their territory.]
[Forget the whole continent, at this rate, our country might be the last one globally not to fall into enemy hands.]
