"Can't go back even if I wanted to."
Li Ang waved his hand casually and said, "Both my identity and appearance have already been exposed.
The European Heavy Industry Group or organizations like the Federal Bureau of Investigation are definitely already digging into all my past records at this mont.
There's no way to hide anymore."
A high-level player, once their identity is exposed, is almost impossible to return to a normal life.
The coveting, greed, and hatred of rival organizations,
and the regular tasks in the real world brought by the killing-field ga,
all pose an extrely severe danger to the friends and relatives, even acquaintances, around high-level players.
Moreover, Li Ang stands at the pinnacle of the players' pyramid, even if he wanted to return to his original life,
teachers and classmates at school, neighbors and acquaintances in the community cannot adapt to such a sudden change—not everyone can endure living in the sa area as a humanoid nuclear bomb.
"Hmm."
Xing Hechou sighed in relief and slowly said, "We'll be dispatching personnel soon to protect your friends and acquaintances from daily life that you're familiar with,
such as your teachers at school, the employers' families you contacted when you were a tutor, your landlord, and so on.
To prevent other forces from targeting them to get your attention."
"Alright."
Li Ang nodded, feeling a bit embarrassed and guilty towards the horoom teacher and the landlady; in the future, they might all have to stay under the protection of the Special Affairs Bureau.
At this point, it's no good trying to et them to apologize.
"There's one more thing..."
Xing Hechou opened his mouth, hesitated and struggled for a while, before speaking awkwardly, "Brother Li, we've found your biological parents..."
"Hmm?"
Li Ang frowned, his aura unconsciously exuding, causing the special alloy floor beneath him to crack with a snap.
"You know, in the killing-field ga, there are many spells, curses, ritual tracks, insect hexes, magic,
even cloning technology, that can make use of blood relations."
Xing Hechou hurriedly gave a bitter chuckle, waving his bandage-wrapped arm, "There's no guarantee that other rival forces, coveting your strength and resources,
can't take direct action against you, so they would turn their gaze towards people related to you.
We've found your biological parents and also your..."
Seemingly noticing the cold expression on Li Ang's face, Xing Hechou halted his words, awkwardly saying, "We've included them in the protection plan as well..."
"That's your business, nothing to do with . Don't ntion it again in the future."
Li Ang waved his hand indifferently, ever since he could rember, he had never wanted to look for his family, nor had he ever thought about returning to the so-called hotown,
it's just a bunch of strangers in a strange place.
"Alright."
Xing Hechou silently breathed a sigh of relief. He didn't want to be the bad guy to disgust Li Ang either,
but he couldn't help it, as he had a good relationship with Li Ang.
Standing silently to the side, Liu Wu Dai looked at Li Ang and calmly said, "Didn't expect you to be a high school student."
Li Ang grinned, "I didn't expect to see you wearing a dress one day either."
Liu Wu Dai was wearing a cyan mid-sleeved dress at the ti, with a suit draped over it, styled refreshingly fashionable, vastly different from her character task look of always wearing a cloak and carrying a bow.
"Ha."
Liu Wu Dai rarely smiled a bit, "I only learned not long ago that you are the Deadwood Titan.
Now that your identity is exposed, do you have any plans for the future?"
"Take it one step at a ti."
Li Ang thought for a mont, casually saying, "Anyway, after just experiencing the quest task, there should be so idle ti ahead."
"Haven't thought about joining the European Heavy Industry Group or organizations like the Federal Bureau of Investigation?"
Liu Wu Dai tilted her head, glancing at the two Special Affairs Bureau employees beside her, her mouth slightly curved upwards, "They're offering to give you a position as the fourteenth seat of the highest council."
"Stop joking,"
Li Ang laughed, waving his hand, "You know I don't like their way of doing things."
"Ha."
In the real world, Liu Wu Dai wasn't as silent and indifferent,
she nodded, asking Li Ang, "Found a place to live yet?"
"Not yet, might as well go live in the Ga Square."
Li Ang said offhandedly, "There are five-star hotel restaurants in the square; living there for a long ti is no problem,
besides, I have a store in the square, staying in the store is fine.
The only annoying thing is having to reserve logout ti every week."
As the killing-field ga updates its version, the number of selected players increases,
while the Ga Square becos more lively, the atmosphere of comrcial operation inside grows increasingly mature.
The European Heavy Industry Group and other organizations bought a large amount of square real estate, investing in the construction of hotels, restaurants, bars, and other entertainnt venues, with decorations as luxurious as possible,
the employed staff inside,
are all newly recruited players who received professional training,
or machines from the Protheus Laboratory Company, or modified creatures from the Demon Scientist Alliance.
All players, only need to spend a two-digit amount of ga currency each day, can enjoy emperor-level treatnt.
The only downside is the Ga Square's login/logout chanism—players can only stay on the square for 5 days a week,
after logging out,
would reappear in the real world at the location they were at the ti of login.
aning, you can't treat the Ga Square as a perfect and worry-free refuge,
need to be careful one day logging out of the square, being ambushed and eliminated by a long-plotted rival force.
Li Ang glanced at Xing Hechou and Bai Haozheng,
since Wang Congshan and her family are staying in the Special Affairs Bureau, Li Ang couldn't directly jump into the Star Gate and leave,
and the Special Affairs Bureau seems to want to maintain the current situation, probably not hoping Li Ang joins organizations like the European Heavy Industry Group, nor can they accept Li Ang staying in Yin City—that makes both sides feel inappropriate.
Liu Wu Dai slightly curved her lips, telling Li Ang, "How about I find you a place to live instead?"
Li Ang slightly raised an eyebrow, "Hmm?"
"My family runs a fairly sizable shipping company, called Ryu Qing Shipping."
Liu Wu Dai said casually, "I'm the head of the family now. Our company has a cruise project.
I'm considering opening new business internationally,
sending out several cruises, to cruise international waters worldwide,
specifically providing shelter for those players with sensitive identities, not suitable to stay in any sovereign territory.
If you want, I can give you a cruise ship, docked in the offshore of Yin City, as your residence."
