As gunshots rang out one after another, a box billowing smoke fell from the jeep.
???
The Boss driving the car looked at the system prompt on the screen and three question marks appeared above his head.
"What's going on here?"
Gan Zhe said nervously, "Boss, be careful, there's a master assassin on your left. I didn't even see him before I was taken down."
"Master assassin?"
The Boss glanced to the left and indeed saw a foolish-looking man firing a gun.
Turning the car around, the Boss floored the accelerator towards the man.
Whoosh
Bang
Smoke rose in wisps, leaving a gap of a meter or two.
Gan Zhe's body box and the master assassin's body box stared at each other with wide eyes.
"This is the master assassin you mentioned? I didn't believe the reviews at first, but now I see... hmph, forget it, I'll just take this as a lesson learned. Internet celebrities are unreliable, I'd better find a top-ranked expert instead."
With that, the Boss drove off, leaving Gan Zhe standing there dumbfounded, staring blankly at the swirling smoke.
One
Two
Three
It seemed as though Gan Zhe had lost his skills, yet also as if he hadn't lost them.
He always ended up dying at the hands of some random fool, yet could also slay opponents among internet celebrities.
Time passed.
Another day went by, twelve hours, twenty-four hours, one thousand four hundred and forty minutes, eighty-six thousand four hundred seconds ticked away.
Gan Zhe was getting fewer and fewer jobs, completing only about twenty tasks for the entire day.
Even the reviews were filled with curses.
At a glance, it was all negative reviews.
Even Gan Zhe himself couldn't figure out what was going on.
He could only sleep with a heavy heart, drifting off into a deep slumber.
Wilderness Survival Headquarters
Technology Department
"Xiao Wang, you're in early today. You worked hard these past few days. They were very satisfied with the code you used and specially gave you a bonus. Take it."
The head of the Technology Department handed a bank card worth one hundred thousand to a young man with a Mediterranean hairstyle.
Of course, he wouldn't tell this Xiao Wang that the actual reward from above was one million.
And of course, his superior wouldn't tell him that the CEO had actually given five million.
And of course, his superior's superior definitely wouldn't tell his superior that the CEO had actually given a multi-billion dollar project worth several hundred million in pure profit.
The simple-minded Xiao Wang didn't have to worry about all that.
One hundred thousand was several months' salary for him.
Enough to buy his girlfriend several handbags.
It was just adding a line of code to implement a kill switch against a certain person in the man-machine system.
A small piece of code, not much different from a game cheat.
Something even amateurs out there could do, yet they had to ask a genius like him to do it.
Such a small matter, Xiao Wang didn't dwell on it at all as he started shopping for gifts for his girlfriend.
Lipstick?
Or cosmetics?
Or a designer handbag?
[Ding, due to the host's doubts about the Companion System, the Companion System's compatibility has decreased by 10%. Current compatibility: 60%]
Raising a cup to invite the bright moon, with one's shadow making three people.
Another day spent missing the Good Big Kid.
Ye Bufan put down his cup and picked up the descending game on his hand.
"Lizi, perform another play in a couple of days."
It was a four-player game, with the other three being the Companion trio.
Now Lizi had also been upgraded to a monthly companion.
Naturally, she would have to accompany the Boss in playing games during her free time.
"Perform a play? Another play?"
Upon hearing "perform a play," Lizi immediately recalled the big play from a few days ago.
That one play had truly left her with a deep trauma.
Not to mention the script the Boss had given, since that was the Boss after all.
But that supporting actor Dian Bei was truly...
Not a single eye contact, and he didn't even memorize his lines when he appeared on stage.
It really made her rack her brains.
She ended up turning the supporting role into a one-woman show.
Summing it up in two words: exhausting.
"Sister Lizi, Sister Lizi, someone's here."
Seeing that Lizi's character wasn't moving, Zhao Xue couldn't help but remind her.
"Oh, oh, sorry."
Lizi hurriedly raised her gun and joined the fight.
"What's wrong, having trouble performing?"
Ye Bufan was a little puzzled. Didn't she perform well in the last play?
Could it be that the rich second-generation Dian Bei took advantage of the play to make advances toward Lizi?
This guy really had no sense at all, did he?
Maybe he should give him a good warning before filming so that it wouldn't affect Lizi's state and the filming results.
After all, he was still looking forward to taking out Gan Zhe early and setting his sights on the Good Big Kid in Jiangcheng.
"No... no, I was just wondering, who will be the actor this time..."
Lizi wasn't worried about the script. The Boss had already given her permission to improvise on the spot last time.
It was the issue of the actor that really made her uneasy.
A one-woman show wasn't that easy to pull off.
"Actor? Oh... the usual trio, you, Dian Bei, and Gan Zhe."
Ye Bufan had been closely observing Lizi's reactions.
Sure enough, when he mentioned Dian Bei, Lizi's breathing slowed by half a beat.
"Ah... Dian Bei... he..."
Lizi really wanted to reject this co-star, but didn't know how to bring it up.
Was she supposed to say: "Boss, you have a problem with your casting choice, this Dian Bei doesn't memorize his lines when performing."
But then wouldn't that be criticizing the Boss's decision?
"Hmm? What about Dian Bei?"
So it really was an issue with Dian Bei.
It seemed the incident last time was quite serious if it had left Lizi with such a trauma about him.
It looked like he would have to give Dian Bei a good beating before filming this time.
If actors didn't have to rely on their looks for work, he would have beaten that face to a pulp already.
"No... nothing, I'll do it."
Lizi didn't dare reveal the truth.
Dian Bei was pitiful enough already.
If the Boss found out that the actor he had personally chosen didn't even memorize his lines, who knew what kind of rage he would fly into.
Feed him to the fish? Throw him into the river?
One scene after another from TV dramas played out in Lizi's mind.
Coupled with the memory of Dian Bei desperately pleading at the company last time, Lizi's sympathy began to overflow.
Forget it, she would save him this one time.
But if he still didn't properly memorize his lines this time, then he would have really let her down too much.
"Sister Lizi, Sister Lizi, it's the final circle, don't space out."
Zhao Xue always felt that Lizi was acting a bit strange today, as if she had something on her mind.
If even an outsider like Zhao Xue could see it, how could Ye Bufan not notice that Lizi had something weighing on her mind?
Ah, he had really put too much on her.
Dian Bei, ah...
Rat-a-tat-tat
Rat-a-tat-tat
After a round of gunfire, Ye Bufan successfully won the chicken dinner.
"Boss, want to play again?"
Zhao Xue had been practicing her shooting skills these days, and her hands were feeling good. She really wanted to put on a good show in front of the Boss.
"No, no, I can't keep up. Look, even your Sister Lizi can barely keep up, let her rest."
Ye Bufan wasn't a heartless capitalist after all and was still quite considerate towards his subordinates.
"Oh, alright then..."
m back to his original world. In the end, he realized he had overthought things. [Hey, why is Shen Manni, the female lead, acting strange? Shouldn't she be fawning over the male lead at this point?] [Zhou Qiaoqiao, are you sick? Weren't you supposed to break off your engagement today?] [Damn it! An Youyi, please do your job as an undercover agent and sell my information to the protagonist, you idiot!] ... At this moment, Xu Mo himself didn't know that these female leads had already heard his inner thoughts. Then they decided not to play by the rules. Xu Mo: Please respect my profession as the big villain!
ey change clothes. Li Chuan contributed all his possessions, only to find that things were not as they seemed. Almost a year after joining, he hadn’t managed to get a single Daoist consort. Thinking he had been deceived, he was approached by a stunning senior fellow disciple who asked if he would like to form a spiritual bond. For those who don’t practice cultivation, they might not know what “forming a spiritual bond” is. Let me put it this way: A long-term relationship is called a “Daoist consort,” while a short-term relationship is known as “forming a spiritual bond.” From then on, Li Chuan discovered the true way to interact with the Yin-Yang Sect’s Daoist consorts. As long as he had enough spirit stones, he could form a spiritual bond with anyone, Whether it’s Senior Sisters, aunts, Daoist consorts of aunts, female elders, Daoist consorts of elders, or even the Daoist consort of the sect leader, anyone can form a spiritual bond as long as there are enough spirit stones.” I've already joined the Yin-Yang Sect, and you're telling me to focus on cultivation? Do you even know what the Yin-Yang Sect is all about?
ts me of treason?" "Correct. The host must return to the capital and gradually build up influence." "Wait—I have half a million soldiers, and you want me to go back to the capital to 'build influence'?" "Host, you are currently the Northern Garrison General, loyal to the Great Xia Dynasty." "Of course I am loyal to Great Xia! Absolutely loyal!" "But you keep referring to yourself as 'We'..." "Never mind the details! Summon all the regional commanders and military officers! We suspect treacherous officials are manipulating the court! They shall march with Us to the capital and purge the corrupt!" "......"
