Fate Reignites: My Rampage in a World Where Time Stops-Chapter 111 Clues and Tracing the Vine (Extra for 1450 Monthly Tickets in April)

Blue Star 2.2 update, Resource Exchange and Ranking List appeared, and it had been 15 days since.

Qin Chuan and Yue Li were somewhat right in their speculations that the Special Affairs Group had already seen Official Level players like "Chopper" before the first weekly settlement.

By the time of the weekly settlement on the 7th day after the update, hundreds of Official Level players from the Special Affairs Group had already received the first prize on the Growth Rank Spiritual Beast List—self-selected intermediate resources.

By then, they were already aware of the existence of rare resources.

But knowing the existence of rare resources didn't mean they knew their characteristics.

At first, resource scouts, following normal understanding, believed that rare resources would stand out conspicuously, just like other resources. They searched tirelessly, but all the resources they found were just ordinary intermediate resources. Many people encountered dangers during the collection process and had to restart their accounts.

Despite such sacrifices, they hadn't found a single piece of rare resource. Just when the Special Affairs Group was at a loss, a turnaround occurred.

Four days ago, a resource scout serendipitously discovered a self-concealing rare resource. Although he lost the resource by putting it in his bag, the information was still extremely valuable.

Knowing that their previous approach was completely wrong, all resource scouts of the Special Affairs Group collectively shifted their strategy, adopting the method of tactile identification for potential rare resources.

The efficiency was very low, but the direction was correct.

According to estimates by experts in statistics and probability from within the Special Affairs Group, there was a good chance of finding rare resources within five to ten days, and then the first Elite Rank Spiritual Beast would appear.

Under the spirit of striving to be first in everything, driven by the enthusiastic nature of Yanhuang Country, the resource scouts in the Special Affairs Group worked feverishly, and other members also paid close attention to the situation.

Who could have expected that the first to make a breakthrough was not an internal member of the Special Affairs Group?

Fortunately, Luo was a player from Yanhuang Country.

If this first place had been taken by a foreign country, quite a few people would have been cursing.

In less than half an hour, orders from the upper echelons were issued to the Special Affairs Group in every city:

1. Clarify the real identity of "Luo."

2. If the individual is nearby, extend goodwill.

3. If possible, recruit them as a member of the Special Affairs Group.

Special Affairs Groups in all cities called emergency meetings without delay, discussing execution plans.

Inside the meeting room of the Special Affairs Group building in Changxing City, Lan Cheng looked down at the core members below, his expression solemn, "That's the situation, is there anything you would like to add?"

"That..." Zhou Zixiu slowly raised his hand, "May I say a few words?"

"Go ahead," Lan Cheng said, looking at him.

"Luo might be Qin Chuan," Zhou Zixiu spoke gravely.

His words brought immediate silence to the entire meeting room.

Ji Huai, who had been sitting with his arms crossed and eyes closed in rest, suddenly opened his eyes with a sharp gaze fixed on Zhou Zixiu.

Others in the room, who had little contact with Qin Chuan, were visibly surprised.

Yesterday, Qin Chuan had won first place in the second Official Level practical assessment in Changxing City, and during this assessment, he had even killed a Demon Beast on the verge of breaking through level 21. They had all heard his name, at least to some degree.

Now, Zhou Zixiu was suggesting that this same individual was "Luo"?

Lan Cheng's pupils shrank sharply, his demeanor becoming serious, "On what basis do you say this?"

"Luo's first Contracted Spiritual Beast is of the Water Attribute, and the second is of the Ice Attribute," Zhou Zixiu shook the documents in his hand.

This was the information compiled by the Special Affairs Group about "Luo" for immediate release.

"In terms of attributes, Qin Chuan matches him," Zhou Zixiu paused slightly, "Of course, this alone does not confirm it."

"Nationally, there are over seventy Official Level players whose first Spiritual Beast is of Water Attribute and the second of Ice Attribute. Besides them, there are players hiding in the shadows or who have not revealed their second attribute. Just on the attribute front, 'Luo' could be any one of them."

"So, I have other evidence," Zhou Zixiu pointed to the documents in his hand, "which is Qin Chuan's second Contracted Spiritual Beast, Frost Wawa."

"I've checked our internal Spiritual Beast database in the Special Affairs Group; others from our team have contracted a Frost Wawa before, so its first three skills are recorded and quite distinctive."

Speaking to this point, Zhou Zixiu's expression became more serious, "In the practical assessment yesterday, all of Qin Chuan's Active Skills were Ice Attribute, and they corresponded to the Frost Wawa's skills."

"Besides, although the Water Attribute skills Qin Chuan used before didn't have a significant identification mark, if we suppose that he is 'Luo' and take that as a fact, then all his capabilities perfectly match the recorded skills of the Water Leaf Dog."

"So, it's very likely that Qin Chuan is 'Luo'."

Hearing this, everyone in the meeting room felt that Zhou Zixiu's "very likely" was already a cautious statement.

"Everyone except me is not to leave this meeting room."

Lan Cheng spoke solemnly, and then turned and strode out of the meeting room. Shortly after, he returned carrying a stack of documents, placing them in front of every individual person.

"Sign," he directed.

It was a non-disclosure agreement. Nothing about today's meeting was to be revealed.

Everyone understood the seriousness of the situation and dutifully signed their names.

As for mobile phones and other electronic devices, they had been turned in before the meeting began.

After collecting the agreements, Lan Cheng's expression softened slightly, "I will report this matter immediately. Zhou Zixiu, you have done a good job."

Zhou Zixiu remained expressionless.

Being transferred from the criminal investigation department to the Special Affairs Group as its brightest new star, the thirty-year-old had already stacked up a lot of merits; one more or less didn't make much difference to him.

Under everyone's gaze, Lan Cheng picked up an encrypted, specially-designed Communication Device and dialed a number, informing the person on the other end of Zhou Zixiu's deduction.

Once the call was disconnected, Lan Cheng breathed a sigh of relief, "Next, the higher-ups will have a meeting to discuss their opinions. We will wait for the results here."

"By the way, Ji Huai, are you instructing Qin Chuan?" Suddenly recalling Ji Huai's performance during yesterday's assessment, Lan Cheng's eyes brightened, "Could you persuade him to join the Special Affairs Group?"

"I will not use my position to influence his decision," Ji Huai stated calmly.

Lan Cheng's lips twitched slightly.

Well, you are the capable one, so you make the call.

Understanding Ji Huai's personality very well, he turned his head to Zhou Zixiu and began to inquire in detail about Qin Chuan's situation.

Zhou Zixiu didn't have as many private interactions with Qin Chuan as Ji Huai, but because he had previously investigated Qin Chuan, he paid attention to him and shared some of Qin Chuan's performances at school, which Lan Cheng and the other members listened to very attentively.

For the first time, they got a relatively rounded impression of Qin Chuan.

About half an hour passed, and the encrypted Communication Device rang. Lan Cheng immediately answered, hearing orders from the higher-ups.

As he listened, his pupils shrank slightly.

The decision from above was quite surprising to him.
