The Abyssal Garden: No Room for the Idle Chapter 183 157 Nancy: Sinning!2
Nancy continued reciting until he reached the final na:
"Also, the Hustlers..."
He suddenly choked, his pupils slightly constricting, disbelief evident in his eyes.
What the hell?
Why do these characters look so familiar!?
The Hustlers Chamber of Comrce?
Nancy was utterly shocked.
Wasn't this that guy's joke-level chamber of comrce? That crude business card was still in his pocket!
How could these characters now appear on the organizer list!?
Nancy didn't have ti to think, as thousands of eyes were fixed on him, confirming that he hadn't seen wrong.
He took a deep breath.
"And the Hustlers Chamber of Comrce! Thanks to these five organizers for their support!"
Nancy looked towards the distant VIP area, the last seat... slowly displaying the logo of the Hustlers Chamber of Comrce, a design that, upon closer inspection, was recognized as the character for "idle."
Simultaneously appearing in... Nancy's line of sight, was Su Qi, who slowly erged along with the rising seat.
"..."
Damn it.
Nancy felt a lump in his chest, and he even saw Su Buxian waving and smiling at him!
And giving him a thumbs-up gesture!
Thumbs up my ass!
The most crucial part... the organizers even had a microphone, ready for a short speech at the end of the event schedule, before the auction would start. This was also an opportunity for the five elite figures to advertise and court various powers.
As long as they captured even one person's attention, it would be enough.
Anyway, it was bad!
Really bad now!
Nancy's scalp tingled, and he began to sweat profusely.
This guy showing up in the front row was one thing, but being one of the organizers, and now he even had a microphone!
What a disaster!
With trembling hands, Nancy picked up the microphone: "In any case, this is not only an auction but also a celebration where guests from all walks gather. Before the auction comnces, please enjoy the upcoming fabulous shows!"
Without any hesitation, he hastily exited the stage, letting the show temporarily cover for him.
The person in charge stood there, dumbfounded, watching Nancy stride over!
"Mr. Nancy... you seed to have left the stage about a minute earlier than scheduled."
"Don't remind ."
Nancy's eyes were intensely solemn: "First tell , what's the deal with the Hustlers Chamber of Comrce! How did he beco one of the organizers!"
The person in charge coughed: "This, it was a last-minute notification... Originally that spot was supposed to be for Life Group and that Sigong Cheng, after all, although they've declined significantly, the funds invested previously ensured Life Group owned this seat. Then, this morning, there was a last-minute notification... it was changed to the Hustlers Chamber of Comrce."
"Other elites saw that Life Group didn't show up at such an event, and even transferred the spot to this unknown chamber, naturally feeling it was a good opportunity, and they agreed."
"I'm not asking about that," Nancy said slowly and earnestly: "I'm asking why Life Group would transfer this seat to that guy."
This seat was coveted by the elites, both in terms of value and opportunity, naturally very important to their own interests.
The person in charge stamred: "I... I don't know either, I just know Life Group moved into Illegal Land, which seems to be where the Hustlers Chamber of Comrce originated."
Nancy's expression subtly darkened, and after a few seconds of contemplation.
He decided to leave the place directly and find his assistant.
"Mr. Nancy..." The person in charge couldn't call him back.
anwhile, the assistant lady was inspecting various auction items in the lower area, which were very important, and she was personally responsible for them.
Yet she saw the approaching Nancy and was slightly startled: "Boss Nancy? Shouldn't you be in the waiting area? How... did you end up here?"
Seeing the hurrying Nancy, she suddenly realized sothing: "That... if you need a toilet, it's over there."
Nancy shook his head:
"Help check sothing, the elites of Night City lied, investigate Illegal Land... about the real situation of the Hustlers Chamber of Comrce."
He felt an odd sense of crisis.
In fact, this feeling had always been present, its source unknown, possibly related to him, or possibly to the Spirit Prince's Heir. In any case, it seed sothing big was about to happen that would decide his career.
After seeing Su Buxian, this feeling grew particularly strong.
Therefore.
He needed to gather enough information to face the unknown situation... or to use as leverage in making his decision.
Elsewhere, in another area, Sigong Cheng and Simon sat together, but they were not in the VIP section; instead, they were in the ordinary area.
Simon muttered, "I didn't expect that the president would actually persuade you to give up your seat."
He looked towards Sigong Cheng.
"You wouldn't happen to be holding any... secrets, like an affair or a cri, that the president might be using against you?"
Sigong Cheng: "...."
"My actions are transparent and honorable; I wouldn't have such filthy secrets."
"Besides, I like investing..."
He glanced over at Su Buxian who briefly appeared on the holographic screen.
Sigong Cheng's support for The Hustlers Chamber of Comrce was motivated by his daughter's illness, but that didn't an he would support them unconditionally and hand over all benefits. The fact that he could enter Illegal Land and announce the official start of The Hustlers Chamber of Comrce was already the utmost he could do.
He had initially wanted to take this opportunity at Stars Hall to revive and rejuvenate Life Group.
But... that guy had successfully persuaded him.
"Taking part in this gigantic gamble, I wonder whether the outco will prove to be right or wrong."
Simon was confused as he silently gazed into the distance at Su Buxian.
But it didn't matter.
After all... whatever the president intended to do, he would support him unconditionally.
.....
[Reputation 100]
Su Qi's eyelid twitched slightly; where did this 100 co from? Large incrents in reputation usually indicated a powerful person or deep reverence.
Had the followers of The Hustlers Sect increased?
He had also gained so scattered reputation by just making an appearance, though the amount wasn't large.
It was because he hadn't yet made a deep impression.
Like watching an advertisent; without repeated, brainwashing slogans, who would rember?
He checked his current progress.
[Title: Sect Hierarch of The Hustlers (75238/100000)]
[Current Level LV2: Erging]
Not bad, he had gained nearly forty thousand more since the last ti, besides the over ten thousand outside of Night City, the rest of the reputation had accumulated naturally over ti.
He wondered who had contributed this boost.
"But indeed, I need to pay attention," Su Qi muttered to himself. "According to the information gathered from Left Hand's group, reputation is not just about boosting capabilities." "There are also important elents like Totems, shrines, and followers."
He knew about shrines.
Whether it was the Gods or the Seven Spirit Kings, powerful beings likely all possessed them, used to provide Sanctuary to the world and deter Pollution.
It also served as a way to increase followers.
Of course, it was the opposite for Evil God; his shrine was in the form of a Sheep Head, primarily aid to Pollute the world and create chaos.
However.
This was all because these dreadful beings possessed the power of Dreadful Dominance and reputation, enabling such actions.
"Ordinary weaklings... should probably start with what's known as a Totem."
Like those engraved on an Amulet... not a fixed object, as long as the strength could be projected within it, it could be utilized, though at most it could slightly alter house Feng Shui and provide sanctuary for individuals.
For example,
A well-known old monk's blessed jade bracelet within ten villages; it contained the monk's strength, which didn't necessarily co from physical power, but rather from the accumulated Power of Faith over ti.
It could help you purify Pollution.
Other ordinary players actually didn't value reputation much, thinking that title capabilities were rely auxiliary and fa was hard to achieve.
But the big clubs nurtured various erging talents, aiming to make a na from various instances, and it wasn't just for the sake of title capabilities.
"....."
At this mont,
The first show had concluded.
Mr. Nancy walked out briskly, appearing less confident and more uneasy compared to the opening,
Though his professionalism was still spot-on, invisible to others.
Only Su Qi could notice,
Because there were question marks hovering over Mr. Nancy's head.
[Now... he is panicking]
