Chapter 938: Chapter 447: Dare Not Speak Aloud, For Fear of Disturbing the Heavenly Beings_2
[Baron of Hell: For the love of god, stop talking nonsense, you’re scaring everyone!]
[Jiu You: Son of Heaven, what exactly are you trying to say? Just spit it out!]
[Son of Heaven: What I want to say is, if we continue to be disunited and only focus on self-preservation, humanity is doomed!] fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm
[Son of Heaven: Now, we must unite and establish a Union Command Center to coordinate all global forces appropriately and place the right people in the right positions to have any chance of overcoming this crisis.]
[Blue Beard: I understand the reasoning, but the question is, who will take the lead in unifying us? You?]
[Son of Heaven: I’d hope so, but unfortunately, I do not have enough influence.]
[Jiu You: Such a union won’t be enough with just the manpower from our major forces; we must engage as many players as possible.]
[Son of Heaven: Yes, that’s also why I say I don’t have enough influence. The one who needs to step forward must be a person who commands the highest fame and reputation in the hearts of the majority of players and also possesses top-tier strength, only then can this collaboration possibly succeed.]
[Son of Heaven: Actually, we do have someone suitable for this role.]
[Blue Beard: The Ghost Captain, huh...]
[Solomon: But the big guy isn’t online. I’ve sent tons of direct messages, but the captain is completely unreachable...]
[Holy Light Nana: Same here, can’t contact him.]
[Sherlock Holmes: @Ghost Captain. Boss, are you there? If not, I’ll ask again later.]
[Baron of Hell: Detective mate, you’ve been messaging all day, why not just ask directly?]
[Baron of Hell: @Light and Elegant Fragrance. Sis, where’s the boss?]
[Light and Elegant Fragrance: Ah, well...]
Little Ya, who had been silently monitoring the chat from the pet shop, suddenly became anxious.
How should she respond in this situation?
Should she tell them directly about the boss’s situation? But would that not reveal too much?
Or should she continue to conceal it...
She was acutely aware that in the eyes of everyone else, she wasn’t representing herself, but the identity of the ’Ghost Captain’, and every word and action could have significant consequences.
As a pet shop employee who had always lived at the lower levels of society, Little Ya had no idea how to handle this situation.
Almost subconsciously, she pulled up Lin Xue’s private message to seek advice.
But before she could send out her message, there was a knock at the door followed by the doorbell ringing.
Little Ya hastily went to check and found, to her surprise, that it was Lin Xue standing at the doorstep.
"Sister Xue, what brings you here?" Little Ya’s eyes lit up.
Lin Xue still looked a bit pale; evidently, she hadn’t fully recovered yet.
"With everything that’s been going on, I couldn’t stay put at home. Plus, with Mu You not around, I figured you might be receiving a lot of inquiries here." After saying this, Lin Xue gestured behind her, signaling the car that had brought her to return on its own, and then followed Little Ya into the pet shop.
"Sister Xue, you know me too well!" Little Ya was delighted and quickly relayed the recent discussion in the City Lord group and their last query.
"I see..." Lin Xue murmured thoughtfully after hearing everything.
"What should we do, Sister Xue? How should we respond?" Little Ya asked cautiously.
"Just add me to the group, and I’ll talk to them directly," Lin Xue decided.
"Oh, okay..." Little Ya felt relieved, quickly using the invite feature in the group.
Seconds later, Lin Xue accepted the invite.
[Red Sickle Girl has joined the chat.]
[Solomon: ?]
[Blue Beard: Holy cow!]
[Baron of Hell: Red Sickle big shot has arrived!]
[Holy Light Nana: Wow, welcome! The female to male ratio is now 3:8.]
[Red Sickle Girl: Greetings, everyone. I’m temporarily joining this group as the Deputy City Lord of Dawn City and will handle all matters concerning Dawn City in this capacity.]
Lin Xue first explained her reasons for joining the group, ensuring that she hadn’t abused her connections.
[Son of Heaven: Deputy City Lord... does that mean the Ghost Captain really isn’t on Earth right now?]
[Red Sickle Girl: Yes.]
[Son of Heaven: Then where is he?]
[Red Sickle Girl: In the Star Spirit World.]
[Blue Beard: What? Then call the boss back, we need him to take charge during this crucial time!]
[Jiu You: Is there a need for a ’portal’? If so, we can provide one at any time...]
[Red Sickle Girl: Unfortunately, the Ghost Captain is currently incapacitated and will not be able to return for the next week.]
Lin Xue laid out the situation directly to everyone because she knew that such critical information could not be concealed, especially not from these decision-makers; misleading them would mean misleading the world.
[Blue Beard: A week, that’s...]
[Son of Heaven: Incapacitated for a whole week... so, the Ghost Captain has indeed begun merging with the Divine Skin?]
Lin Xue hadn’t expected the Son of Heaven’s guess to be so precise.
[Solomon: Ah? Divine Skin!]
[Baron of Hell: Damn, that’s fast! I haven’t even got my Divine Artifact yet...]
[Blue Beard: That’s powerful!]
[Holy Light Nana: No wonder we couldn’t contact him...]
...
Everyone’s attention was instantly captured by the ’Divine Skin’, eliciting various exclamations.
It was then Son of Heaven who promptly steered the discussion back on track.
[Son of Heaven: So, it means that for at least the next week, we must rely on our own strength to persevere!]
[Red Sickle Girl: Yes.]
