Chapter 714 Investigation
Ling Chen understood that after all, he was no longer a small person at the level of an ordinary contractor, so he would naturally receive more attention.
If you think about it carefully, you will feel relieved.
Ling Chen said simply:
"Do you know what the party will be like?"
"There should be some old people from various factions inside, who will be responsible for delivering the observed data to the vice president after the party."
"What do I need to do then?"
"You can do anything. You can eat and drink as you should. If someone provokes you, you can fight back directly, or you can trick someone into trapping you. You have a lot of freedom."
After listening, Ling Chen nodded, then turned over the invitation letter in his hand, and suddenly said:
"There's no address on it. Where is the party held?"
"You will only be notified on the day of the party. This is to prevent someone from coming to the venue in advance to cause damage." Pandora chuckled:
"As for other things, I don't know. I happened to go to the guild headquarters and was caught by the vice-president, so I was ordered to deliver a message."
"I have one last question."
"Please tell me."
"Can I not go?"
Pandora rolled her eyes at Ling Chen and asked:
"what you think?"
Ling Chen shrugged and said nothing, obviously already knowing the answer to the question.
After being silent for a while, Pandora spoke again:
"Another point is that the guys who are invited to the party are either from out of town like you, and there is not much relevant information. As for the other kind..."
"What is it?"
"Most of them don't have a good reputation, and the guild's senior leaders are unable to make accurate judgments, and they don't know the limits of their potential and strength."
Ling Chen immediately understood Pandora's subtext, and his heart suddenly trembled.
The lack of reputation may be due to weak strength, however, it may also be because;
Everyone who saw him take action was dead.
If there are all these guys in the party, I'm afraid it won't be as easy as Pandora said.
Then Pandora glanced at Ling Chen and continued:
"Your biggest advantage is that you did something well-known before coming to Canada."
Ling Chen frowned and said:
"You mean killing Wan Pengyun?"
"Yes, at that time, your strength was still at the level of an ordinary contractor. The unsolved case issued by the King of Beasts clearly recorded this." Pandora coughed and said:
"I believe that not many people can predict that you will be promoted so quickly. This is definitely a huge advantage."
Ling Chen raised his eyebrows, lit a cigarette, took a puff and said slowly:
"From your tone, it seems that you really hope that someone will misjudge the situation and provoke me... Is this what you mean? Or is it the meaning of the vice president behind you?"
An inexplicable smile appeared on Pandora's face and she said calmly:
"Is this important? We have been labeled as the same faction."
Ling Chen smiled:
"Indeed, it doesn't matter."
"Please remember that showing strength that exceeds that of others can not only defeat other factions, but also strengthen the morale of our faction."
"You mean, this can only do good things?"
Pandora looked directly at Ling Chen, the corners of her mouth raised slightly and said:
"Isn't it?"
Ling Chen was silent for a while and said word by word:
"If the trees are beautiful in the forest, the wind will destroy them."
Pandora shook her head:
"Dangers are everywhere, not to mention that even if you want to hide your strength, you will be discovered sooner or later. It is better to take advantage of this to build an advantage."
Ling Chen squinted his eyes, and a ray of light flashed past:
"I have my own sense of proportion."
Pandora said nothing more, stood up silently, and walked towards the door.
"That's all I have to say, go back first."
Ling Chen lowered his head and smoked cigarettes one after another, ignoring Pandora.
Until she opened the door and stepped out with one foot;
Ling Chen, who still didn't look over, lowered his head and said calmly:
"Do you remember clearly?"
Pandora was stunned.
"What?"
"Hasn't the first round of inspections already begun? I'm going to report on what I just said. Have you remembered the content clearly?"
A slight smile appeared on her face, and she continued to walk out of the door, leaving behind a sentence:
"Who knows."
Then the door was closed, and Ling Chen was the only one left in the room.
He put out the cigarette butt in the ashtray, and there was a glimmer of light in his eyes. He didn't know what he was thinking.
Although he didn't have much contact with her, he still had a certain understanding of Pandora's character.
As long as the benefits are sufficient, she will help as a lobbyist, but she will never go as far as this.
The attitude she showed just now seemed to be that she was completely on the same side as the senior leaders of the faction, without any dissent.
The second half of the conversation all hinted, intentionally or unintentionally, that Ling Chen must make some achievements for the faction.
This is a bit fake.
Even if she takes sides, she will definitely not show it so obviously. There is only one possibility behind the contradictory phenomenon;
The entire conversation itself was to collect Ling Chen's personal intelligence in many aspects, including reaction and coping abilities, etc.
It is further speculated that the reason why Pandora was asked to deliver the message was because she and Ling Chen knew each other personally.
Whether we can analyze the essence of this conversation through some details is obviously also a part of the investigation.
As for the motivation for doing this, Ling Chen didn't know. After all, he was not a high-ranking member of the faction, so he couldn't figure out what these guys were thinking.
The most important issue now is that Pandora just mentioned that there may be conflicts in the subsequent gatherings.
Ling Chen secretly thought in his heart that he should seize the time to speed up and try to truly advance to a high level before the party begins.
The stronger you are, the greater your confidence will be when the time comes, and the better you can ensure your own safety.
After this episode, Ling Chen continued his previous work, browsing online exchanges every day, trying to find suitable spells.
At the same time, he will try every day to control the ability of the natal curse to swallow the "Solid Rock".
Unfortunately, there is still no effect at all, and the completion level is stuck at the last point without making any progress.
It seems that the only hope for successful devouring has always been to explode the cursed object.
After more than ten days, he found a cursed object similar to the "Solid Rock" and sent a text message to the seller.
After some discussion, Ling Chen paid a sum of psychic points and asked the seller to remove the sale post, giving Ling Chen about half a month to think about it.
If Ling Chen does not respond after this period of time, the seller will re-list the spell on the online exchange for sale.
Of course, no matter what the final result is, the psychic points Ling Chen paid at the beginning will not be refunded.
After making good preparations for insurance, Ling Chen felt that it was almost time to start trying to hit the high-level.
There are about five or six days left before the party date.
After so many days, Ling Chen still couldn't find a spell that could be used to strengthen the combined skills.
Stone Demon skills are already in a fairly stable structure, so it is not a simple matter to embed a new ability.
Ling Chen finally gave up because he didn't get anything from the online exchange.
Secondly, it was because he thought about it later and realized that even if he obtained a suitable spell, it did not mean that he would be able to integrate it into the combined skill system immediately.
At the very least, it takes about a month of running-in with Taiyo before he can successfully coordinate with the Stone Demon's skills.
There is no doubt that for Ling Chen, this will cause a huge waste.
If it can definitely improve the strength by a big margin, then it doesn't matter if you wait a while.
