The investnt firm from the Rebirth Empire was called Multi-Dinsional Capital.
Although it was far from matching the size or power of Eternal Investnt Fund, which had developed the famous card battle ga "Cosmic Net," it could still be considered a top-tier investnt company.
When Bai Fu spoke with a representative from Multi-Dinsional Capital, she unexpectedly stumbled upon an interesting tidbit.
After the news of the Battle of the Iron Ore Mining Star spread, a senior partner from Multi-Dinsional Capital took a keen interest in her, but since they lacked her contact information, they approached the Leader to help make the connection.
"emmm..."
Bai Fu felt sowhat at a loss for words about this matter.
Goodness, did the Leader also have a role to play here?
The expression on the Leader's face when he received contact from that senior partner must have been priceless.
After further discussions with the representative from Multi-Dinsional Capital, Bai Fu received even more intriguing information.
The Leader had indeed defected to the Rebirth Empire, but he had not won the support of the entire Elder Council; only a radical faction supported him.
The other factions in the Elder Council shunned the Leader partly because of their internal struggle and partly because so disliked his character.
[Too unscrupulous]
This was how Super Supre [Annihilation], one of the pillars of the Empire, had described the Leader during an internal eting of the Elder Council.
He felt that instead of collaborating with a wily old fox like the Leader, it would be preferable to support a new power in the Edge World, one that was more trustworthy if raised by himself.
Bai Fu pondered thoughtfully.
Multi-Dinsional Capital revealing such information to her at this ti must have a deeper intent, right?
"Do you want to perform well and ideally catch [Annihilation]'s attention to beco a target supported by the Empire?"
The representative from Multi-Dinsional Capital shook their head, "[Annihilation] is not an ordinary Super Supre; even among Super Supre IIs, he stands at the apex. His vision is uncommonly high. Lady Whitney investing in you is actually for another major matter."
Bai Fu's face lit up with curiosity, "What big event?"
The representative from Multi-Dinsional Capital smiled and said, "This matter involves Spiritual Ability Prayer Masters and the Ten Saints Association, but I cannot divulge the specifics to you now. With your current power, you're not yet qualified to participate in that competition. Lady Whitney hopes you will continue to make progress."
A ga prompt echoed in Bai Fu's ears.
[This task will be triggered after your rank is promoted to Dominator.]
A task that could only be triggered at the Dominator Level?
She nodded, unperturbed, to show her understanding.
Actually, she was not far from becoming a Dominator.
If all went smoothly, she would be able to advance to Dominator in another four months, and then she would be able to figure out what kind of ga Lady Whitney was playing.
"I will arrange for the supplies you requested to be delivered as soon as possible. Oh, and a word of advice, do not get too close to the Leader; he is far more dangerous than you can imagine."
Before ending the conversation, the representative from Multi-Dinsional Capital gave Bai Fu a well-aning warning.
Bai Fu flashed an innocuously charming smile.
Did she not know that the Leader was dangerous?
But she was no ordinary figure either!
The first batch of supplies she extracted from Multi-Dinsional Capital was not only for developing the Silent Court but also for taking precautions against the Leader ahead of ti.
Knowing she had preemptively eliminated the Honorable Force, the Leader would surely be enraged. Whether he would imdiately seek revenge was uncertain, but it was better to take precautions early; she could not rely on the rcy of an enemy.
For this reason, Bai Fu planned to build an advanced detection tower and a special Star Gate at both Ulysses and the second base.
She had money; she just lacked technology.
The arrival of Multi-Dinsional Capital had solved her technology issue.
"Very well, let's see how the Leader makes his move next."
...
Four months is not a long ti, but it isn't short either.
Since the Battle of the Iron Ore Mining Star ended, Bai Fu had led her Legion to station near the Tem Star, going nowhere else.
Aside from chatting with various visiting dignitaries, she spent her days monitoring the developnt of the Tem Civilization Civil War. These leisurely days continued for half a month.
Half a month later, the Leader started to make moves again.
He concocted several reasons to lure Bai Fu into his sche, including but not limited to "the Honorable Force urgently replenishing weapons lost in the battle on the Iron Ore Mining Star and, therefore, contacting arms smugglers to make ergency purchases, only to accidentally reveal their tracks," and "facing back-to-back heavy losses, the Honorable Force broke into fierce internal strife, with higher-ups seeking to turn in others to redeem themselves," among other tactics.
In the face of the Leader's offensive, Bai Fu remained remarkably composed.
Accept! Transform! Deliver!
With a smooth minor combo, she deflected the Leader's attacks.
An arms dealer exposed their location?
She would use the Virtual Heart to disguise herself as an employee of the arms dealer, leak the information about the intelligence breach to the Honorable Force, and turn the tables on the Leader, making him believe there was a spy from another faction by his side, and it was this spy who leaked the information to the arms dealer!
Internal conflict with higher-ups seeking to redeem themselves?
She would use Virtual Heart to disguise herself as another high-up within the Honorable Force, then contact Lister, claiming she wanted to atone by turning others in, luring reputation-hungry Lister into the fray, completely upsetting the Leader's plan!
After four consecutive attempts that still failed to disclose the location of the Honorable Force's headquarters to Bai Fu sensibly, the Leader lost his composure.
"Damn it, why does it feel like the whole world is against ?"
No.
Impossible.
His luck couldn't possibly be so bad; there had to be a problem sowhere!
