Starry Sky Railway: No one understands the Amber King better than me.

"Topa, Topa, this company isn't a sentimental show. The Stone Heart team is a brutal survival-of-the-fittest game."

In crucial moments, Ms. Emerald's coldness far outweighs her warmth. Like this time, when the department sent me to Pinocchio.

My mission is simply to ensure that the cornerstone of the Emerald Lady is delivered. As for my life or death... well, I'm just a chip on the poker table.

People always need to have enough trump cards up their sleeves. Otherwise….

Sand Gold's eyes gleamed as he looked at Lin Yuan, who was sitting at the head of the table.

He was also somewhat curious about the reason why the guardian who had already arrived in Pinocchio had convened the meeting.

However, after receiving Lin Yuan's business card, he was determined to contribute more to his circle of friends.

It is clear from the sand gold that this place is unrelated to any department or the existing political structure.

This is the youngest and most ambitious place in the company—a place of opportunity.

Only by boarding a reliable large ship can one navigate the unfathomable depths of the company's ocean.

Then, he immediately followed up with Ai Bai's leisurely speech:

"I've been in Pinocchio lately, nothing new. But it seems like there are quite a few interesting people there."

Our company's people, the nameless guest, the Memory Maker of the Flowing Light Memory Court, the Masked Fool... and, a Void Commander.

"What, the Void Envoy?"

Apart from Lin Yuan, everyone present looked surprised.

"The Void has a Commander? I've never heard of the Void having a Commander?" Ai Bai's eyes widened.

"Madam, although it's hard to believe, it's true. The Star of the Event is really finished now."

Sand Gold chuckled softly.

On the other side, Spears looked at Lin Yuan at the head of the table and nodded silently, without denying it. He felt a little nervous and excited.

"Wow, is this social circle such a high-end place that it can even share such confidential information?"

After the gold miner, the remaining people briefly shared their recent observations, including interesting stories from within the company and news from around the world.

However, while this news was fresh, it only provided some topics of conversation for those present and was of little practical use.

Seeing that everyone had almost finished speaking, Lin Yuan tapped the table to attract everyone's attention.

"I'm issuing you a commission here. Oswaldo from the Market Development Department is frantically searching for places where pleasure resides."

And I need to know if other departments in the company are doing the same thing?

"Yes, to be precise, our Strategic Investment Department is doing these things. For example, Hartopia, which used to be under the Market Development Department but has now been transferred to us, is now being operated by Zhenzhu, one of the ten members of our Stone Heart team."

Sand Gold spoke decisively, then looked at Lin Yuan.

"Moreover, as far as I know, this place seems to be hiding some big things, which are related to the market development department, strategic investment department, and even technology research and development department."

"What? How come I didn't know? No... gold dust, is that something I can really talk about?"

Topa spoke instinctively, but met Sand Gold's meaningful gaze. Immediately afterwards, everyone's eyes were on her, including Lin Yuan's.

Topa suddenly realized that he seemed to be somewhat isolated.

After a moment's thought, she finally realized where she was.

Lin Yuan gave them the opportunity to join, but the opportunity to stay was in their own hands.

To gain the qualification, the only way is to integrate, to fully integrate.

"What do we do? What do we do? Use your brains, you blockheads! How could that guy with the thick eyebrows and big eyes have betrayed us?!"

Toppa's mind raced, and his expression kept changing.

"Ahem, of course I can talk about it. I was just curious about how extensive Mr. Sand Gold's information was, haha." She tried to make amends.

A smile appeared on Sand Gold's face, a smile that seemed to convey both joy and relief.

"Topa, my friend. Compared to the company's veterans, we are still too young. Even within the strategic investment department, it's like a deep pool."

There are many things we don't know, and that's when we need an eye for opportunities.

"So, Miss Topa, do you have any information you can share?"

Lin Yuan asked calmly.

"Um... let me think."

Topa looked conflicted; there was still a hurdle in her heart. But suddenly, her eyes lit up:

"Yes, I just participated in a debt collection project. The world was called Yalilo VI. I originally thought it was just an ordinary world."

However, later investigations of local documents revealed that this world not only possessed the legacy of city builders, but had also suffered continuous invasions from an antimatter legion in the past.

"So what does this little ice hockey puck have to do with pleasure?"

A question flashed through Lin Yuan's mind, and then Toppa continued:

"Recently, the company, in conjunction with the Etherfront Association, held an interstellar victory celebration here, and the sponsor of this event was a private businessman from Aprilon named Giovanni."

Later investigation revealed that this person appeared to be a masked fool, haha. This could be considered a place of lingering pleasure, right?

Topa became increasingly unsure as she spoke, since everyone had just been talking about places like Pinocchio and Hattopia, but in the blink of an eye, she had shifted her focus to a small, obscure planet.

Upon hearing this, Lin Yuan's heart skipped a beat, and his expression turned serious.

“No, your information is very valuable. I can share some information with you. This Giovanni is an important character in the Masked Fools, and he also holds a position in the tavern. There are also rumors that he once received a gift from the Pleasure God Aha.”

As Lin Yuan spoke, there were still things he wanted to say but didn't.

Yalilo VI, and Sambo, an important character in The Masked Fool.

This place can definitely be called a place of pleasure.

It's definitely not simple.

.........

Chapter 291 The Prophecy of Destruction

Lin Yuan had wondered why a small place like Yalilo VI was always included in any large-scale entertainment event in the universe.

Now he had a vague idea: this place was probably not as simple as it seemed.

First Sambo, then Giovanni, two chosen ones destined for pleasure, both made their moves here. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it a place where pleasure lingers.

"By the way, Toppa, does the record of Yalilo VI mention which Great Lord was responsible for the invasion?"

While everyone was still processing the information Lin Yuan had released, upon hearing the voice, Topa looked up and pondered for a moment:

"Well, the records about Belloborg are all passed down in the form of myths, and it is impossible to determine which great lord it was. But the legion's invasion seems to have lasted for a long time."

"It lasted a long time?"

Lin Yuan's gaze narrowed slightly. The names of the Great Lords flashed through his mind, and the one that best matched their characteristics was none other than the Demon Lord from Beyond the Realm—Gui Ji.

The faith of returning to silence and preservation, the factions of joy... A flash of lightning suddenly struck Lin Yuan's mind. These elements were strikingly similar to Hattopia, the paradise of two phases.

So, does this mean that Yalilo VI is also related to ancient beasts? Or, to go a step further, perhaps it's related to gluttony?

So, when Oswaldo and diamonds sought places of pleasure, were they actually looking for pleasure, or for preservation... or perhaps for gluttony?

"Has the company's custody been affected by greed?"

Lin Yuan suddenly fell silent. He realized that even though he had reached P46 and was certified by the company as a storage order officer, there were still many things he didn't know, and his superiors had tacitly kept quiet about them.

But Lin Yuan didn't know that there were also some important figures in the company who had doubts about his past performance.

The company's past and secrets seem to be shrouded in a dark, deep sea, and Lin Yuan is only now glimpsing the tip of the iceberg.

"It seems that when I have some free time in the future, I need to go to Yalilo VI and even the Two-Phase Paradise to take a look."

His eyes were deep and unfathomable.

Seeing that everyone was still waiting silently, Lin Yuan put on a smile again, said a few words briefly, and then dismissed the meeting.

The figures disappeared one after another, leaving only gold dust at the scene.

At this moment, Sand Gold was somewhat absent-minded. When he realized that he was all alone, he was suddenly startled and then felt a surge of excitement.

"Sir, is there anything you wish to instruct me to do?"

"Ah."

Lin Yuan nodded. Unlike the warm and friendly atmosphere he had when they met in person, he now exuded a strong sense of pressure in Sha Jin's eyes.

"You did a great job and proved your worth. How are you doing with the tasks I assigned you?"

"Sir, I have had my men contact several publishers in the Pinocchio alfalfa family and reached cooperation agreements. At the same time, we have also used the company's media resources and some street gangs to steadily spread the word."

"Hmm, well done."

Lin Yuan nodded.

"Next, I need you to use the company's gray channels to spread another prophecy."

A prophecy foretold the impending destruction of Pinocchio at the arrival of the Harmonious Festival. I need it to circulate naturally in the streets and alleys, like an urban legend.

Upon hearing Lin Yuan's voice and meeting his deep gaze, Sha Jin's expression changed drastically.

"Sir, if we do this, and if any clues are discovered, won't it arouse the family's vigilance or even hostility?"

"Heh, the family? They're too busy taking care of themselves right now."

Lin Yuan spoke casually.

"I originally just wanted to come to Pinocchio for a vacation, but I didn't expect my family to be so unwelcoming to me. They shut down Golden Hour as soon as I arrived."

Then I'll have to investigate what exactly happened in this dream. Have you met with the person in charge of Pinocchio?

"Are you referring to Mr. Sunday? We met once at the Morning Dew Mansion."

"Oh, actually I meant the Dream Master, that guy hiding in the shadows plotting and thinking he can control everything."

Sand Gold's expression changed slightly. Was there someone hiding behind the family? He had no idea about this.

Ignoring his change in expression, Lin Yuan continued:

"The Golden Moment was sealed off because of a battle that broke out involving mystery, memory, and nothingness. The battle's impact spread throughout the entire Golden Moment, and in the end, the Dream Master himself intervened and quelled the situation."
