Landing Point, Ginza Hotel.

A young man who looked like a tourist, followed behind by an automatically driven small black suitcase, headed toward the top-floor hotel room with a scenic view that he had just booked.

His eyes darted all around, and there was a very careful expression on his face. However, he was not aware at all that inside the mouth of the ventilation duct that he had just passed by, a small bug only the size of a fingernail, its body color completely camouflaged into its surroundings, was turning its reddish eyes to follow him.

On the highest floor, close to the direction of the landing point, more than 10 guests were successively accommodated within six to seven minutes. All the faces of these people had been clearly seen by the little beetle hidden in the ventilation duct.

Of course, most players, even if they had noticed this beetle staring at them, probably would not have given it much notice or raised their guard. After all, no one would have expected that there was actually a pair of human eyes behind the eyes of this seemingly inconspicuous little beetle!

Moreover, it was not only this area that had hidden eyes. In fact, unbeknownst to these people, another pair of eyes stared from behind the hotel’s mandatory surveillance camera—a pair of very beautiful, charming yet burning eyes.

In the monitoring room in the basement of the hotel was a female Light Armor Warrior as tall as towering flames. She had red-dyed, shoulder-length hair, and she wore hollow light armor of the same fiery red color.

Looking at the young man of “amateurish acting skills” on the surveillance screen, her eyes, made up with red eyeshadow, narrowed, and her red lips whispered in a moan-like voice, “Yet another fool. This is the 15th guy who’ll be out!”

“Pretty lady, your coffee!”

A male NPC wearing a security uniform placed a cup of coffee on the surveillance monitor in front of the fiery red light-armored beauty. His eyes were subconsciously staring at the plump, snow-fair breasts below that hollow armor of hers, which specifically revealed many of her key areas. With dryness in his throat, he swallowed hard and hurriedly poured the coffee in the cup in his other hand into his mouth.

“Thank you very much, Mister Yoshisuke!” The beautiful Light Armor Warrior said, meet his eyes.

The NPC security guard with “Aoki Yoshisuke” on his identity tag almost fainted at the look. “No need to thank me, no need to thank… But, pretty lady, you mustn’t ever tell anyone that I let you in here. After all, the hotel still has its regulations—”

The enchanting Light Armor Warrior beauty—hot red-colored from head to toe—faced him and breathed out softly through her flame-red lips, “I know. Isn’t this a secret between us…?”

“Yes, yes… Secret, secret…”

The security guard’s eyes were mesmerized. He had already completely lost all senses.

While the female Light Armor Warrior toyed with the NPC security guard, her eyes never actually left the surveillance screen. Just then, she saw yet another person entering the top floor. The smile on her face was even wider. “Hmm. 16 already…”

******

“Suspicious targets at the top level. The 16th already!”

“According to the field of view of this person’s observation habits, his minor actions, and when he walks, the probability of his profession being a Scout is 43 percent. Sniper, 35 percent. Light Armor Warrior, 9 percent…”

The same surveillance screen was displayed in another room less than 10 meters from Feng Luo. In the room, a female player who looked no older than 16 or 17 years old, wearing a pair of silver, high-tech glasses and light-yellow casual attire, was constantly analyzing her surroundings.

In front of her, in the air, a giant virtual screen that occupied more than half the room displayed the surveillance screens of all the floors of the entire hotel building. The average person would probably have felt dizzy from just one glance at such a screen, but the young girl seemed to be observing all the screens at the same time, constantly speaking, and with countless streams of data flashing through the silver, high-tech glasses on her face.

Those glasses were not the Agent glasses worn by players who joined the mission, but technical glasses that only Chip Experts, Appraisers, and other such Life Profession players would be equipped with.

The young woman who directly invaded the hotel management system to obtain the surveillance images was quite obviously superior to the flaming beauty player with the betraying sex appeal. However, she was not the only one who could think of this method.

“Huh? Another person has attempted to hack into the hotel system. Excellent. Yet another self-reveal!”

The young girl’s facial expression was very calm. As she saw the message flash across the corner of her vision in the glasses, her mouth crept into a slight smile.

“The capabilities of the Agent Wristwatch equipped in this mission are indeed very useful—using them on typical hotel customer systems is effortless. But equipment is still just equipment. In War, other than equipment, skills and profession specialization exist, too!”

After effortlessly trolling the hacker, then “kicking” him out, the young genius with an IQ of 300 nodded her head.

“This Chip Expert’s Life Profession is not bad, indeed, and feels very smooth; it’ll rise to Advanced level in 10 or more days. Feels like it’s best suited for my profession. Hmm. It’s decided. My Life Profession in the future will be mainly practicing to be Chip Expert!”

Thereafter, a troubled look appeared on her face.

“But what shall I choose as my battle profession? After trying so many, I still feel unsatisfied, somehow. I wonder what this Agent Hidden Profession would be like…”

******

Time was passing by, minutes and seconds, and the first investigation mission countdown had already entered its final minute!

Just then, a convoy of business vehicles made up of 10-plus luxurious energy airships finally appeared at a corner of the city’s skies, flying quickly toward the landing point. The convoy was heading for the VIP zone of the landing point, where average players and NPCs did not have the authority to enter.

“So, to make a move is only possible outside the landing point! Who, then, will be the one to first take the bait—or step into the trap?”

In the Ginza Hotel room, Feng Luo lay on his stomach on the bed, looking as if he were sleeping soundly due to the fatigue of long-distance travel. But, in actual fact, he had already picked up all that was happening at the landing point through a normal Scout Beetle which had flown into the sky above the landing point to get a more complete view than the players who’d secured most of the view of the landing point from the top floor of the hotel but had also directly revealed themselves.

Having learned his lesson in Roguetown, Feng Luo now never kept just one Scout Beetle in his Pet Space. Even though a Normal-level Scout Beetle’s disguise ability was slightly weaker than that of an Elite beetle, staying hidden in such a wide-open area of the sky would not require much energy, either.

Time: final 30 seconds!

Vehicle convoy distance: less than 200 meters!

“Coming!”

In the hotel room, Feng Luo, eyes closed, felt a quiver in his heart.

That was because, through the special field of view of the Scout Beetle, a beam of red light appeared out of the blue in front of the luxurious vehicle team! And it was growing larger and larger.

It was the signal of the accumulation of a humongous amount of fire energy!

Only two seconds after the convoy entered a 100-meter radius of the landing point—

Boom!

A mass of a large-scale skill made up of countless flames—like a Wind Energy Tornado move—whizzed from the ground up into the sky. Like a giant, roaring, fiery dragon, it swept toward the speeding convoy of luxurious vehicles!
