Chapter 365: Mystery Solved

POSTED ON APRIL 14, 2023 BY KEN

Max was putting on his coat, and he said to Fang Linyan,

“Hmph, you ask.”

Fang Linyan said,

“Why did your team and Team Koi come to this bloody place?”

Max breathed a sigh of relief. Apparently, he was surprised by Fang Linyan’s question.

“We were led here by serial hidden missions.”

Seeing Fang Linyan’s face full of thirst for knowledge, Max thought for a while and felt that it was no big deal to tell him. So, he took out a sandwich from his private space to eat while saying,

“These serial hidden missions aren’t to be accepted by people, but you only need to get a piece of metal fragment. Then, the mission will be triggered automatically, you just have to choose Yes/No. The fragment seemed to be brought out by people from the previous golden main mission”

“And this piece of metal fragment can be traded. The businessman who sold this item at the time revealed that in that golden main mission, a powerful plot character was besieged and killed by the joint forces of 3 teams.”

“The plot character was a robot with intelligent life. After being trapped, it was shot by 3 railguns in a row. When it saw that it couldn’t dodge the first shot of the railgun, a disk popped out from its chest and into a mechanical monster bird.”

“After this mechanical monster bird was directly blasted by the railgun, people picked up the scattered fragments, then this mission was triggered.”

“It is said that it is possible to obtain the ultimate secret of this world if these serial hidden missions are completed.”

Having said that, Max was also a little sad,

“If I had known that doing these series hidden missions would pay such a heavy price, I would have just given up…”

“But there’s no other way. After entering this damned Space, I can only go all out.”

“By the way, after accepting these serial hidden missions, the number of times the contractor can enter this world is limited.”

“This is the second time I’ve entered this world, and it’s also the last time, so I don’t expect to get any ultimate secrets. I just hope that I can get a higher score in the final assessment.”

Fang Linyan was stunned after hearing this. Finally, he understood the cause and effect of this.

Fang must have obtained a similar piece of metal fragment back then, which triggered these serial hidden missions.

He should know much more than Max and the others, but he should have exhausted the limits to enter this world and fell short.

In this case, Fang made a trick. He found that if he wanted to bypass this limit, he could only use Descend Mode.

But this would cause his strength to be greatly reduced, so he could only carefully choose the person who was descended.

Obviously, there must be a world of difference between the resources obtained from a passerby and the president’s son…

And the only way to get the ultimate secret of this world was to go to the moon… Then everything was obvious!

Jerry Lin was likely to have a close relationship with the key figures who could go to the moon, so i could make up for Fang’s loss of strength due to Descend Mode.

Therefore, after Fang investigated this matter clearly, he should have used some powerful items and selected Jerry Lin as the medium for his descent. He planned to use Descend Mode to enter this world and use “Jerry Lin” identity to complete the mission.

This was the reason why the clues derived from “Jerry Lin” and Team Max and Team Koi would converge, because Jerry Lin was an important plot character. He had a very important role in their serial hidden missions.

“I seem… to have a bigger advantage than them!” Fang Linyan’s heart was moved at this moment.

“Yes, at least I know the general situation on the moon and what the ultimate secret is! More importantly, I also know where the fragment is hidden!”

While thinking, he suddenly thought of another thing,

“By the way, my biggest problem is that I didn’t get the relevant missions, so I have to find all the clues by myself now, so why don’t I just make it clear with Max and act together? Anyway, his number of entries has been used up. He is not a threat to me.”

Thinking of this, Fang Linyan said to Max,

“It seems that our missions have collided. Is your current mission objective related to a woman named Eyrie?”

Max said in astonishment,

“Eyrie? It doesn’t seem to involve this person. My current mission objective is to find a guy named Ashton Moore.”

“Haiz, this guy is like a very disgusting mole. Safe houses have been set up in many places. I have traveled to 3 cities to find him.”

Having said that, Max frowned,

“Fortunately, he made 3 calls from here a few hours ago, so his whereabouts were exposed, but this guy seems to have undergone strict anti-tracking training. We only knew that he should hide in the town. We still have to search his whereabouts.”

“But we didn’t notice that that damned Kanner had been following us. We worked so hard to find out this clue, but Koi and her team knew it without putting in effort!”

Fang Linyan smiled mysteriously at this time, then took out the phone, fiddled with it, and handed it to Max.

“Is he the one you’re looking for?”

What Fang Linyan showed was the photo he sent when he contacted Povi before.

On the screen of the mobile phone, Kuwan Tiss was smiling in the photo, looking like an ordinary uncle next door.

Max’s eyes straightened suddenly,

“Oh! Yes, he is the Ashton Moore I was looking for!!”

Fang Linyan shrugged and said:

“That’s just a fake name he used. The name he used in this town is Kuwan Tiss. Of course, this is probably a fake name too, but obviously, this name has been used longer. Because he has been here for dozens of years.”

Max cursed in annoyance. Although Fang Linyan didn’t hear it clearly, he knew that it must be a dirty word. He continued,

“If it’s possible, can I know what your mission objective is this time? I think I should be able to help you. Is it to look for him?”

Max said,

“No, it’s asking for one of his documents. As long as I approach that document within 5 meters, a prompt will appear.”

Fang Linyan simply snapped his fingers and said,

“Okay, we have to hurry up now. If I’m not wrong, the thing you’re looking for is right where I was an hour ago.”

“By the way, Koi’s mission objective should be the same as yours, right? Otherwise, they wouldn’t have sent Kanner to follow you.”

Max said,

“I’m not sure, but it is very likely to be the case.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the car made a sharp turn and drove in another direction.

Needless to say, Fang Linyan took Max directly to Kuwan Tiss’s house, then they entered the basement from the secret wardrobe in the bedroom.

According to the arrow prompt on Max’s retinas, he successfully found a document and completed the current mission of the serial hidden missions.

Then he got a prompt, saying that this document was actually encrypted. It had to be soaked in a special potion to reveal the real content.

Of course, he would do this later! The top priority now was naturally to make Team Koi suffer a big loss.

After they discussed, they poured gasoline everywhere, set fire to the house, and put a time bomb in the basement. They planned to burn the house and boom it, leaving nothing valuable for them.

However, according to Max, Team Koi’s serial hidden missions would not fail even in this way, because most of the goals given by these serial hidden missions were non-unique.

Even if the mission objective couldn’t be accomplished, another new mission objective would be created for them. The only possibility for the serial hidden missions to fail was when the mission time limit expired.

Fang Linyan didn’t quite understand it, so Max explained. For example, the ultimate goal of the serial hidden missions was to go from London to Moscow in 3 steps, and the second step was to let them go to London airport to board the plane to Moscow.

When the enemy blew up the plane, the mission would not fail. It would guide you to the high-speed rail station to board the train to Moscow.

Even if there was a problem with the train, the mission will let you go by car…

Of course, the mission time for these serial hidden missions was limited. Once the time was up, the mission would fail.

Team Koi had been following Max and his team before, and they even fought hard with them. Now that Max and Fang Linyan suddenly cut off the clues, they got a new mission objective. The time wasted during this period would not be returned. They would definitely panic because of the time limit.

Max was also able to vent his anger through this.

TL: Seems like he wants to get the metal fragment from Max, but does he still need it?
