I went berserk in the game of gods.

Chapter 109 Someone's about to have bad luck.

Yang Jiao's heart trembled upon hearing Cao Yu's words.

Anything that Lao Liu describes as "causing trouble" is definitely not a trivial matter.

He swallowed hard and asked:
"Sixth Brother, who...did you kill?"

"...Brother, I always feel that you have a lot of misunderstandings about me."

Despite saying that, Cao Yu didn't dwell on it too much.

Then he dropped another bombshell:

"You might not believe it, but my current strength is comparable to the Federation's strongest echelon. So, the problems you're facing are nothing at all if I step in."

"..."

These words stunned Yang Jiao and the others.

Only Yang Chan looked thoughtful... Sixth Brother dared to say such a thing, so his evolution level must have increased to 30%.

Sixth Brother and she entered the matchmaking instance together. Although they got an "A+" rating, the evolution points from the instance rewards weren't enough to max out the evolution in the D tier.

Sixth Brother didn't come home last night... Could he have gone to An Li's place?

An Li gave her another sum of money!?
On the other side, Yang Jiaoqiang suppressed his shock and asked:
"Sixth Brother, are you sure?"

"Wait!" Su Yuhuan suddenly realized, "Xiao Yu, don't tell me that those rumors in the player community... are all true?"

“Most of them are fake,” Cao Yu replied. “For example, Wang Yuan, the deputy director of the Sishan Special Affairs Bureau, and his nephew Wang Cheng, were not killed by me.”

It's strange, isn't Wang Cheng's death already attributed to Lin Ye, who defected from the Special Affairs Bureau?
How come he's still being blamed for this?

This pot can be turned over and over again... Cao Yu guessed that Wang Yuan probably hadn't found out the truth yet. After seeing Lin Ye's defection, he instinctively thought it was Lin Ye who did it, considering Lin Ye's identity as a member of the Rebellious Fate Society.

This is a subjective assertion, not objective empirical evidence.

'How long is this crap going to bother me? Wang Yuan, huh... You'd better pray you don't fall into my hands.'

Cao Yu's already rising murderous intent became even more violent due to this agitation.

It would be best if this incident could be resolved peacefully.

otherwise……

"So, some of the rumors are true?"

Despite her surprise, Su Yuhuan continued to think quickly and soon noticed the flaw:

"No, Xiao Yu, if it's true, what are you afraid of? Shouldn't this be a good thing?"

"No, this is a bad thing. Because something is very wrong with the federal leadership."

Cao Yu's tone became serious:

"Don't be afraid of what I'm about to say..."

He recounted the information he had received from the Rebel Society to everyone.

At the same time, he offered his own speculation—he might have been exposed and targeted by the leader of the Rebellious Fate Society for unknown reasons. The other side wanted to spread information about him to attract the attention of the three major families.

After digesting this information, Yang Jiao and the others spent some time adjusting their mindset.

"Is this intelligence accurate?" Yang Jiao asked.

If this is true, then the trouble he's encountering is nothing more than a minor issue.

Everything was fine before, so how did we suddenly get caught up in a crisis of global upheaval? He didn't quite grasp the reality of it all.

"It should be true."

Intelligence expert Su Yuhuan made her judgment:
"I've heard about the regional trial dungeons. I found it strange before, our 'strongest player in the Federation,' that is, He Lun with serial number 77, has such outstanding dungeon abilities... Logically speaking, he should have cleared the trial dungeons long ago. I never expected the truth to be like this..."

Her brows furrowed:
"Since the three major families can't go outside, and everyone is within the framework of the Federation, how did they acquire the means to control the strongest echelon? This is really a bit..."

This is somewhat unbelievable!
Even He Lun has fallen victim to this?
"Sixth Brother, could it be that the leader of the Rebellious Fate Society exposed your information to force you to stand against the Federation?" Yang Chan analyzed and speculated, "Would he then lend you a helping hand and win you over after you've fallen into dire straits?"

"I don't care what his intentions are."

A deep chill ran through Cao Yu's eyes:

"Based on basic logic, excluding the three major families, within the Federation, he is basically the only one with the ability to obtain my true information out of thin air."

Little sister, let's work together. First, find him, subdue him, and then ask him for details.

If it turns out he really did it... since he dared to take action, he must have been prepared for retaliation.

"Mm." Yang Chan patted her chest and assured him, "Sixth Brother, don't worry, my evolution level has increased a lot, and my superpowers have become stronger. I can definitely be of help."

"Xiao Yu," Su Yuhuan asked, "Do you have a way to find the leader of the Rebellious Fate Society?"

“Going directly won’t work. I can find the members of the Rebellious Fate Society first, and then follow the clues,” Cao Yu replied. “Whether it will work or not, I’ll have to try it first.”

"You're trying to stop the Rebel Alliance from spreading information about you, right?" Su Yuhuan reminded her, "This can only delay it at best; it can't eradicate the discussion that's already started. Once you're in the sights of the three major families..."

“I know. There’s no need to delay for too long, as long as I can hold out until I become a C-level player. Then, I won’t have to fear the three major families anymore.”

With his current strength, he can easily handle one of the strongest tiers.

But if multiple of the strongest teams were to launch a relentless attack on him... he and Xiao Qi would be in danger once their mental energy was exhausted.

Furthermore, there is a significant gap in strength between the strongest teams, so generalizations cannot be made.

If it were He Lun who made the move, he would most likely have no choice but to retreat into the instance.

However... this disadvantage is temporary. Once he becomes a C-rank player, he will not be afraid even if the strongest teams unite.

At that time, he could do almost anything he wanted throughout the entire Federation.

"If this plan fails, then we'll be in a critical situation..."

Cao Yu looked at Yang Jiao and the others, and said:
"Big brother, please inform second brother and the others about this matter when they return. By the way... do you each have any particularly close friends? You mean, friends who might be implicated if something happens to you?"

"...Sixth Brother, what do you want to do?" Yang Jiao became serious.

"It's just an insurance policy," Cao Yu said. "If there is any, gather them here. If something really happens, I have ways to protect them. If nothing happens... just consider it an invitation for them to visit the Meishan District."

Upon hearing this, Yang Jiao pondered for a few seconds and then said:

“Alright. Leave things here to me. Sixth Brother, you take care of the Rebel Society. I’ll gather them together by tomorrow. What to do then is up to you.”

"Thank you for your trust, elder brother," Cao Yu said with a smile.

"We're all family, no need for formalities." Yang Jiao waved his hand: "Since time is tight, let's get started."

Cao Yu nodded.

He pulled Yang Chan along and they left the boxing gym together.

The president of the Rebellion Society is undoubtedly among the strongest members.

And it's a pretty strong one.

In a one-on-one situation... regardless of whether he can win, at least if the opponent wants to run away, although he has ways to limit them, he may not have time to use them, and there are too many variables.

Bringing Yang Chan along will undoubtedly greatly increase the success rate.

Once outside, Cao Yu asked:

"Hey little sister, do you have any gamer friends? If so, invite them over too."

“I mostly have simple friendships with my classmates,” Yang Chan shook her head. “Even if something happens to me, it won’t affect them.”

"Hmm... what level of evolution have you reached?" Cao Yu continued to ask.

“It’s reached 20%,” Yang Chan replied.

"Give me your hand, I'll give you some," Cao Yu said, showing off the player number on his arm.

Yang Chan quickly refused, saying, "Sixth Brother, how can you..."

“I need you now,” Cao Yu said. “I have plenty of evolution points, but I don’t need them for now. Your superpower will play a crucial role in the future.”

"……I see."

Having come this far, Yang Chan naturally wouldn't be unreasonable.

Cao Yu transferred 1 points to her directly.

In the current situation, Yang Chan's increased evolution level can provide him with considerable assistance.

This money must be spent.

It's like... he has this feeling that he's using the money An Li gave him to secretly support Yang Chan.

It's a really strange feeling.

On the other side, Yang Chan immediately started her evolution after receiving the transfer.

The Superman approach is that simple and brutal. Cao Yu then called Director Zhao.

After the other party answered, he said directly:

"Director, I've thought about it, and I think it's best to put my reputation promotion on hold for now."

"Are you worried about the discussions about you in the player community?" Zhao Ling reminded her, "I saw what happened to you this morning. I glanced at it and it was all just fabricated rumors, but... I didn't expect it to spread so quickly. It's good that you want to stop. Are you still going to hold the commendation ceremony that the branch office prepared for you?"

"It's on hold for now," Cao Yu said. "By the way, Director, have my bounty and branch office reward been received yet?"

"It's down. I was planning to let you know this afternoon," Zhao Ling replied. "Just go to the Central District office to pick it up when you have time. Oh, by the way, I have to remind you of something."

She paused, then her tone became more serious:

"Among the rumors about you, you should pay attention to the point about 'taking multiple routes'."

Many players in the Federation have tried various methods in the past, and although most of them met with misfortune, the very few who survived have achieved a very high level of evolution.

As time goes on, their problems are getting more and more serious. If these people see the rumors about you, they might try to test you out of desperation. So, for the time being, don't go out around. Stay in Meishan District. If you really run into trouble, my brother can take care of you immediately.

"Don't worry, Director," Cao Yu said. "I know what to do."

After hanging up the phone, a thought came to his mind—was Zhao Dezhu currently being restrained and controlled by the three major families?
According to leaked intelligence, Zhao Dezhu is only one level away from joining the top tier, and he's almost ready to enter that level. At this stage, the three major families are definitely contacting him... For now, it's best to avoid him.

Cao Yu suppressed his thoughts of helping with the rescue.

The timing is not right.

Furthermore, the Federation's strongest echelons are not dead, but merely restrained and controlled. If the mastermind behind this is eliminated, all problems will be solved.

Like I said, let's talk about it when he becomes a C-level player.

Cao Yu then called An Li again.

An Li answered the call quickly and asked, "How can I help you?"

“It’s not about helping out,” Cao Yu said. “If I asked you to leave the Federation temporarily, and you couldn’t return for several months, would you be willing?”

"..."

An Li suddenly fell silent.

It wasn't that she had any attachments or didn't want to leave, but this question made her guess at something... Leaving the Federation? Now the whole world is under the Federation's jurisdiction... Her "like-mindedness" probably didn't mean going to remote, uninhabited mountain areas, but rather... going to the outside world?

Travel to other world zones?
Is this kind of thing possible?
After thinking for a few seconds, An Li gave her answer: "Yes."

“Then come directly to my house,” Cao Yu said. “Someone will receive you.”

After finishing his call with An Li, Cao Yu called Zhou Fan again.

After Zhou Fan answered the call, he asked with some surprise, "Brother Cao? Is there some kind of mission from the bureau?"

"No mission." Cao Yu asked, "Do you have any family members still alive?"

"what……?"

Zhou Fan was taken aback for a moment, but still answered truthfully:

"He passed away. The Evolution Game brought many crises, my family... Brother Cao, many of the commoner students in the Fourth Academy were in similar situations to me."

Many people even entered the Fourth Academy specifically to seek revenge against the monster. Song Qiao and Song He were in similar situations.

If one has a happy family and a bright future, who would be willing to risk their life to become a gamer? The dangers of dungeons can haunt you for life.

"Go tell Song Qiao and her brother that I've gotten myself into a big mess that will affect you."

Cao Yu said:

"I might take you all with me on our escape, and then come back to fight once we've improved our strength. Or I might not. It depends on the situation."

You don't need to worry about safety. This whole thing started because of me. If you follow me, I'll give you some resources as compensation.

Once you've thought it through, just come to my house. My family will receive you and explain the details to you.

"Uh...I understand."

Although Zhou Fan had not yet digested this astonishing news, he had already instinctively carried out Cao Yu's orders.

He even seized on the details, asking:

"Brother Cao, you just said your family would host us...Aren't you home?"

“Now that I’ve agreed to the compensation, I naturally need to have some goods on hand,” Cao Yu said. “I’m going to get some now.”

"Purchase goods..."

Zhou Fan wondered to himself... "Are they going to rob us?"
He dared not say anything, dared not ask anything.

"By the way," Cao Yu said, "Could you contact Chen Ran for me and tell her about it?"

"...Brother Cao, Chen Ran is different from us; she comes from a privileged background. Will she also be implicated?" Zhou Fan asked.

"Just consider that possibility," Cao Yu said.

“Chen Ran has many people in his family,” Zhou Fan warned. “If the news gets too widespread, it might leak out.”

“Just ask Chen Ran,” Cao Yu said. “As for her family… don’t worry, they’ll be fine.”

He gathered his relatives and friends together to prevent them from being affected if the situation worsened.

If the worst-case scenario really happens... then he won't have any worries.

He's sure to do something that will terrify the three major families.

Once his reputation spreads, who will dare to play the "collateral damage" trick with him?
……

After Cao Yu finished his notification work, Yang Chan's evolution also came to an end.

She bent her knees slightly and hopped lightly a few times, her chest swaying as if... Cao Yu stopped Yang Chan: "Don't hop around like that in the future."

Yang Chan: "?"

Although she felt somewhat confused, she didn't forget her business and said:

"Sixth Brother, I've completed my evolution. Now I feel... so light. So this is what it feels like to have stronger physiques... Oh, by the way, Sixth Brother, you transferred my 1 evolution points; I don't have many left..."

“I’m giving it to you, so just consider it yours. You don’t need to report to me,” Cao Yu said. “Besides, with your ability number so high, it’s normal that evolving it consumes a lot of energy.”

"Hmm... how should we find them now?" Yang Chan asked, then sighed softly, "I never expected that this time, Sixth Brother, you and Big Brother would all get into trouble together. Why is being a player so difficult..."

"It depends on your choices. As a regular player, you only need to worry about running dungeons and accumulating evolution points. But if you want to gain more benefits, there are many more things to consider."

Cao Yu said:

"We belong to the latter. The good things in this world are meant to be fought for and fought for; where there is profit, there is trouble."

As he spoke, he took out the D-grade item, Hundred Mile Soul Lock, which he had obtained from Xiao Chen, from his storage space.

Yang Chan looked over: "Are we going to rely on this prop to find it?"

"Yes."

As Cao Yu changed the props, he said:
"The effect of this prop is very simple. As long as you can recall the details of any object you have seen, and as long as the object still exists, you can find its trace within a range of 100 miles."

"Sixth Brother, it can't be that simple, can it?" Yang Chan reminded her, "The Federation definitely possesses this type of item, but the Rebel Society has kept it hidden for so many years... I think that the chairman must have some sophisticated methods to conceal his tracks and avoid detection."

“Under normal circumstances, a D-grade item would indeed be very difficult to locate. However…”

Cao Yu's lips curled up, his smile becoming mysterious:
“When I use it, the situation is not normal.”

He didn't explain anything; after changing the equipment, he murmured the name and activated it.

Of the "objects" he had seen, there were two that could be associated with the Society for Rebellion.

One is the puppet he had spoken with before, which was probably a prop.

Secondly... his and Yang Chan's information was exposed during the previous matchmaking instance, and among the players who participated in that instance, he couldn't quite figure out the masked man.

Fortunately, he noted down the details of the masked man's mask and the thick clothes he was wearing.

I just hope these things still exist, haven't been disposed of, and aren't far from their owners.

Cao Yu immediately recalled the details of the object and used a prop to lock onto the sensing direction... but failed.

He wasn't too surprised and immediately summoned Xiao Qi, who unleashed all three spells to destroy the future for 10 seconds—the future where "the item was affected by an unknown force during exploration and became ineffective."

'If this tool couldn't find anything to begin with, no matter how I slash, I can't reach that future. But if the tool can, and it was only affected by some force during the investigation, then that future can be reversed.'

Cao Yu had no intention of engaging in a battle of wits with the leader of the Rebellious Fate Society.

No matter what methods the other party used to hide themselves and their subordinates, whether it was superpowers or gadgets, it didn't matter.

Faced with "future intervention," all means must give way.
