Otherworld Girl Development Guide

"After we sign the contract tomorrow, come with me. I'll take you to Mudo for some fun."

After sending the message, Zhou Mingrui became a little nervous. He was worried that Ellie didn't want to leave Krobel, and every second felt like an hour.

"Great, Grandpa just gave me a day off."

Zhou Mingrui's lips had just curled into a smile when he frowned. Mayor Doyle was giving Ellie a day off at this hour? Had he already sensed the undercurrents beneath the surface?

I'll come find you after the meeting.

【OK...】

The two chatted for a while longer, exchanging sweet nothings, until finally Zhou Mingrui's phone fell onto the bed with a thud, and he fell into a deep sleep.

Only Ellie's reply remained:

[Mingrui?]

Are you asleep?

Goodnight, love you Ellie~

After sending the message, Ellie yawned, wondering why she had been chatting with Zhou Mingrui for so long. She glanced at the photo of herself and Zhou Mingrui on her bedside table and smiled sweetly.

Goodnight, Mingrui~ See you tomorrow.

After saying that, amidst the sound of rain outside the window, Ellie snuggled into her warm bed, covered herself with a soft blanket, and drifted off to sleep with a smile on her lips.

--------------------------------------

Outside Klopp.

At the Hunter Corps camp, the hunters were on guard around the perimeter.

"Who goes there?!"

A vigilant hunter, seemingly noticing someone approaching, shouted loudly.

"It's me, one of our own..."

In the drizzle, a cloaked man took a badge from his pocket and tossed it to a hunter on duty.

After the hunter took the insignia, he examined it in his hand and, after confirming that it was correct, waved to signal the others to lower their guard.

"What's the matter?"

"Get your commander out here!"

The elite hunter glanced at his companion, who immediately turned and returned to the camp.

A short while later, the regimental commander and deputy commander came out wearing raincoats made in Shangqiu.

After the leader came out, the mysterious man in the cloak threw him a package.

After receiving the package, the group leader looked at the other party and asked, "What's this?"

"This is the security duty roster for tomorrow's event. After the signing, some officers will be transferred away from Doyle under the pretext of escorting guests. That will be your opportunity..."

After saying that, the man in the hood left without looking back.

"We'll talk about it when we get back..."

After the mercenary commander and deputy commander returned to the camp, they opened the package. The thick paper documents contained detailed records of the city map of Krobel and the terrain around the venue, places that could be used as cover, and even the names of the guards, as well as some secret passages.

"Political struggle..."

The deputy commander curled his lip in disdain. Such detailed records were obviously from insiders, and some people were even more shameless than the hunters who lived on the edge of death.

The regimental commander picked up the intelligence report and examined it carefully, memorizing the terrain and mentally simulating how to respond to any unexpected situations.

“I think we shouldn’t cooperate according to their demands…” the deputy leader said after looking at the map of the venue.

"Ok?"

The regimental commander turned to look at the deputy regimental commander.

"As a meeting place for dignitaries from various countries, the venue is still heavily guarded even with some police officers redeployed, and the risk of raiding the venue is too great!"

The group leader agreed with this point, but the employer's requirement was to conduct a surprise visit to the venue after the contract was signed...

"did you mean?"

“I think we should raid Krobel tonight. Mayor Doyle’s villa is in a residential area where there aren’t many police officers. Also, in the early hours of the morning, the guards will be more relaxed due to fatigue, making it the perfect time for a raid…” the deputy commander said after a moment of thought.

"No, the employer's wish is..."

"Alright, don't tell me you can't see it. The employer is sending us to our deaths! Raiding Mayor Krobel's mansion and raiding the international conference venue are two completely different things!"

The group leader opened his mouth, but couldn't find the words to refute it.

“We’re here to repay a favor, not to die. Killing Mayor Doyle is enough to repay the favor. I don’t want to die here, and neither do you. Your daughter is waiting for you to come back.”

The word "daughter" was like the last straw that broke the camel's back in the regimental commander's heart. After a moment of silence, he nodded.

"So, what should we do?"

"Quick, accurate, and ruthless! Break in, kill Mayor Doyle, and then immediately disengage!" the deputy commander said solemnly.

Chapter 255 Protect Our Mayor

Krober, the darkest corner.

"Has the item been delivered?"

"It's been sent... but can they be trusted?"

"Trust? I've never trusted them. They're just a bunch of clowns being used. They're not the real killers."

Amid laughter, several capitalists picked up their glasses and clinked them together.

Little did they know that the pawns they considered to be playing had other ideas.

The hunters in the suburbs removed the leaves, branches, and camouflage netting that had been covering the small assault planes, and began to organize their equipment.

"Commander, the airship is ready..."

The hunter in charge of piloting the airship walked up to the regimental commander and said.

The commander nodded and waved to the surrounding hunters, indicating that they could board the ship.

After the hunters boarded the ship one by one, the small assault airship slowly took off and quickly flew towards the city of Krobel...

In the airship's control room, the commander could clearly see the city on the horizon, bathed in lights.

"What we need to do is storm Mayor Doyle's villa, find Mayor Doyle and his granddaughter, kill them, and then leave immediately... No one is allowed to take anything valuable from the villa, understand?" the commander shouted.

"understand!"

"Very good, let's get ready!"

Almost the instant the airship took off, the integrated communications mast of the Hongxing Chamber of Commerce headquarters in the back alley of Krobel spotted the target.

As a chamber of commerce, installing a phased array radar is a perfectly normal thing, isn't it...?

"Situation detected! Unidentified targets are rapidly approaching Krobel. Judging from their flight path, their destination is the villa area!"

"Quickly, notify the president immediately!"

Chan Ho-nam, who was sleeping in the Chamber of Commerce, was awakened by a knock on the door. When he opened the door, he saw Chicken standing there and said with a serious expression, "Something's up. Some people can't hold back anymore."

Without needing to say more, based on the previous intelligence, the enemy's target is Mayor Doyle. Although they cannot openly protect Mayor Doyle, as an old friend and possibly future "in-laws," they must take care of him no matter what!

"Let the team members get ready."

"understand!"

Shanji nodded and said that Shangqiu could not get involved, but it did not say that locals could not get involved.

It's perfectly reasonable for the citizens of Krobel to take up arms to protect their mayor when he's attacked... especially since the protectors are native Krobel residents.

Soon, twenty employees, all native to Krobel and dressed in camouflage uniforms, were assembled.

These tall and burly men, the Chamber of Commerce bodyguards who had undergone professional "confrontation" training, stood ramrod straight, waiting for Chen Haonan to issue orders. According to tradition, they needed to be mobilized before the operation, so that they would know why they were fighting!

"Comrades, some bad guys want to attack Mayor Doyle. Perhaps some of you think that Mayor Doyle's life or death is none of your business..."

At this point, Chan Ho-nam paused, looked around at the people in front of him, and continued:

"...But that's a wrong idea. Everything in Krobel is connected to you. If Mayor Doyle is murdered, who among you can guarantee that the next mayor will be as considerate as Doyle was? You all know the character of those members of the council, don't you..."

The mere mention of members of parliament caused almost all the employees present to grit their teeth in anger, as many of them had suffered oppression at the hands of these members!

"...Mayor Doyle and his granddaughter built schools so your children could attend, and they are also establishing a basic healthcare system so you can have access to treatment when you are sick..."

"...Think about your life now, and then think about your life before! Can you allow yourselves to go back to those days when you didn't have enough to eat or wear, and your children couldn't go to school?"

The employees' eyes immediately turned red. They wanted to return to their former lives, but only by going over their corpses. They all shouted at the top of their lungs:

"Not allowed!"

"Therefore, comrades, in order to prevent the councilors from taking away your current lives, protecting Mayor Doyle is protecting your own lives..."

"...Unfortunately, some of you may perish tonight, but the rest of us will not forget your contributions. The Chamber of Commerce will take responsibility and help support your families..."

"...However, this operation is not to protect the Chamber of Commerce. It's based on a voluntary principle; those who don't want to go can withdraw now without any repercussions..."

After he finished speaking, the room fell silent. Chen Haonan glanced at his employees, and for a full thirty seconds, no one left. They might not know any grand principles, but they knew they had to protect their current lives so that their descendants could live happier lives.

“Okay, since no one is quitting, John, you will lead the team.”

John stepped forward and said in a deep voice, "Yes, Chairman!"

At that moment, a cart carrying pheasants entered the room. John stepped forward, picked up camouflage paste, and applied it to his face. The other employees also stepped forward and began applying camouflage paste in the same way.

After their faces were painted in all sorts of colors, the employees picked up crossbows and sharp machetes and put on stab-proof vests.

This is already the maximum level of force a chamber of commerce can muster, since guns and orbal weapons are very sensitive items and can cause trouble.

After all the equipment was in place, a power-guided truck stopped in front of the Hongxing Chamber of Commerce. The team members boarded the truck one after another, and then the truck drove towards the residential area.

Inside the carriage, none of the employees spoke; instead, they were all checking their equipment, especially several important parts of the mechanical crossbow.

In the sky, three civilian quadcopter drones followed closely behind the truck.

Within the Hongxing Chamber of Commerce's intelligence network, specialized combat advisors will provide employees with intelligence and tactical support, further increasing their survival rate—this is the limit of what they can do.

A truck bearing the Chamber of Commerce's license plate was parked outside the residential area.
