The matters involving the Youxiong Family ca to a close.
Lu Ran believed that among his peers, he should still be considered quite formidable.
Unlike these First Generation mbers, he was actually interested in challenging the Youxiong Family’s exclusive Secret Realm.
However, since the Youxiong Family said the Secret Realm could not be opened now, Lu Ran had no choice but to temporarily give it up.
Although this matter ca to an end, Gu Qingyi clearly wanted to start the next Chapter.
To this, Lu Ran cooperated proactively.
Infinite City.
Apart from the Youxiong Family, Gu Qingyi had called several of the First Generation mbers present earlier, as well as Lu Ran, Inside Infinity City.
They gathered at the Neko Maid Cafe and opened a private chat room.
"Gu Qingyi, what’s up with all the secrecy?"
The youth with gray hair, Jiang Rui, representing the Rat of the Chinese Zodiac, spoke up.
Although he was codenad Rat, his trump card Pet Beast was actually a mole, reputed to be the strongest within the Earth Series nationally, mastered the Territory Technique "Infinite Earth," which could pull enemies into the deep earth space, trap the enemy underground, restrict their movent, and attack with earthquakes.
Most of the ti, however, he undertook reconnaissance tasks in the First Generation strategy team.
"Does it have to do with Lu Ran?"
The Horse of the Chinese Zodiac, a Mongolian Beast Trainer who had won third place in international horse racing competitions, had just contracted a thoroughbred that was a low-ranking Dominator Species.
As for the Superpower Expert Lin Nian who took on the role of the Rabbit, in the early stages, she often presented herself holding a white rabbit Pet Beast of the ntal Attribute.
And as for the individuals taking on the roles of the Dragon, Monkey, and Pig—Gu Qingyi, Shi Zhen, and Zhu Kaixin—Lu Ran was quite familiar with them.
At this mont, the one acting as the Horse, upon seeing this group of First Generations and the inclusion of Lu Ran and Manager Ying, deduced that the matter that Gu Qingyi was going to discuss was likely related to Lu Ran.
"Here’s the thing," Gu Qingyi said with a slight smile, "just now at the Youxiong Family, you also heard them ntion ’Reaper,’ right?"
"Reaper is suspected to be in control of a Reality Secret Realm that has a stable source for obtaining Resurrection Skill Cards."
Everyone nodded, signaling for her to continue.
"Actually, right now, I have over a hundred Resurrection Cards in my possession," Gu Qingyi said, and as she spoke, a stack of cards appeared in her raised hand, which she fanned out evenly.
In this instant, seeing the multitude of Skill Cards in Gu Qingyi’s hands, Lin Nian and the others were visibly taken aback.
"Where did you get these?" Lin Nian was quite surprised and asked, "Did you take down one of Reaper’s branches?"
The others also looked at Gu Qingyi in astonishnt, feeling certain she must have taken down one of Reaper’s branches.
Gu Qingyi shook her head and said, "No, they were sent back by soone from Reaper’s upper echelons."
"What do you an?" The Rat asked, confused.
"The person who returned these resources is actually Lu Ran’s parents."
"Lu Ran’s parents were Xia Country’s undercover agents planted in Reaper’s predecessor, and, well, they have now risen to the high ranks of Reaper."
Everyone: ???
"What???" A multitude of people looked stunned, feeling the explosiveness of this piece of information was no less than the awakening of the Iron-Eating Beast Guardian.
Xia Country had planted undercover agents in Reaper?
And it was Lu Ran’s parents?
This information was, of course, false, but Gu Qingyi framing Lu Ran’s parents as official undercover agents within Reaper gave them a "clean" and even "ritorious" identity.
Even though a deep investigation would reveal many flaws in this story, that was not important—the official stance was what mattered.
"Abaaba..." Zhu Kaixin and the others were shocked. The Pig God looked at Lu Ran and said, "Damn, Lu Ran bro, that’s aweso."
"Is it ti to close the net and take us to take down Reaper? Then, your uncle and aunt must be big shots above level five, right?"
Lu Ran shook his head and said, "My parents... had an accident in the Breakthrough Secret Realm a while back, and their identity cards have been canceled by Infinity City; the Skill Cards that were sent back were all precautions they had laid before entering the Breakthrough Secret Realm."
"This..." The crowd had just been shocked by this information, but upon hearing Lu Ran say this, they suddenly fell silent, and the atmosphere quieted down.
After a mont, Shi Zhen sighed and looked at Lu Ran, "Ah, my condolences. However, if your aunt and uncle knew their son was so outstanding, their spirits in heaven would be very comforted."
"It’s alright," Lu Ran said with a smile: "Who says that dying in the Breakthrough Secret Realm is truly dying?"
"If we die in the Breakthrough Secret Realm, Infinity City has ways to revive us, so maybe in the future when we have the ability to solve the secrets of Infinity City, we can also bring back our relatives and friends who have died in the Secret Realm, one by one."
"Right!" Zhu Kaixin’s eyes lit up, saying, "As long as we keep getting stronger, anything is possible."
At this point, Gu Qingyi spoke again, "At the ti, Lu Ran’s parents, besides sending back a large number of Skill Cards, also transmitted so very important information, such as the significance of the necro system."
"So, since then, Xia Country has begun secretly researching the necro system."
"And recently, the research on the necro system has actually made great strides."
"What progress?" The Horse turned to Gu Qingyi with a curious expression.
It was only now that they knew Xia Country was researching the necro system.
Gu Qingyi’s lips curved upward as she said, "The side effect of necro system’s soul devouring... has been eliminated."
"Without its drawbacks, the necro system will be no different from normal Attributes, allowing for normal growth."
"That ans, as long as Beast Trainers are equipped with Resurrection Cards, their Pet Beasts will effectively have two lives."
