My Notoriety Spreads Throughout the World

Chapter 129: A New Commission


"Dye Thief?" Tang Xin was puzzled.

"Just kidding, maybe I just didn't get enough rest. Don't think too much about it." Xu Xiaoyou said again.

Tang Xin looked at Xu Xiaoyou's blinking eyes, always feeling that the other party had done something to wrong her.

The memory and timing of last night didn't fully match, and she had a doubt in her heart: why did the other party go to the flower shop? Was it just to avoid the investigator's attention? And why did she end up at the Ocean Blue Whale?

Logically, this didn't make sense. Without an absolute reason, her character would not have led her to such a place.

The more she thought about it, the more Tang Xin sensed something suspicious. Xu Xiaoyou observed the girl's face, beads of sweat as big as beans dripped from her forehead.

Just then, a notification sound popped up on Tang Xin's screen.

[Late Wind and You have entered the livestream room.]

[Late Wind and You: Streamer, I'm late today!]

"What song would you like to hear today?"

Seeing the familiar ID enter the livestream room, Tang Xin no longer thought about yesterday's matters, picked up her instrument, and engaged with the audience in the livestream room.

These days, with Xu Xiaoyou's planning and account operation, the fan count of Tang Xin's BuBird account had surpassed fifteen hundred. The latest video even had over a thousand likes and tens of thousands of views, with regular livestream audiences stabilizing at around two to three hundred people.

During her livestreams, the girl would occasionally use a few training cards. Over the past few days, Tang Xin's singing skills had solidified greatly, and her overall artistic abilities had also improved. Most importantly, she finally unlocked the exclusive skills of the [Starry Singer].

The two single target boosts and one group aura are [Sound of Wings Blue][Heroic Ode]and [Star Ensemble] respectively.

[Sound of Wings Blue: Grants a single target the 'Swift Wings' effect. Swift Wings: Agility increases to 1.2, immune to 0.2 spiritual damage.]

[Heroic Ode: Grants a single target the 'Fearless' effect. Fearless: Strength increases to 1.3, physique increases to 1.3, immune to 0.1 physical damage.]

[Star Ensemble: Grants all our targets the 'Starry Melody' effect. Starry Melody: Skill casting priority judgment, all attributes increase to 1.1, and immune to all control effects for the next 10 seconds.]

Looking at Tang Xin's training report, Xu Xiaoyou nodded in satisfaction.

Of course, the specific effects of these skills were unknown to the people of this world; they could only be roughly judged by the casting effect. Perhaps they didn't even know the existence of the concept of attributes, and all characteristics related to the profession needed to be explored during their growth, with some people remaining half-understood about their self-concept until death.

Only she could see the textual description so meticulously, given that she was a noble Otherworldly Wandering Soul.

Just by looking at the skill descriptions, one had to admit that Starry Singer truly was an over-modelled support profession. Its supportive capability was impressive even at just Two Tier. Not mentioning those attribute boosts and damage immunity effects, a ten-second group immunity alone allowed for many actions.

As for this 'skill casting priority judgment' effect, she still didn't quite understand its meaning and planned to test it in actual combat.

Half a day passed by quickly.

"Today's livestream is about to end here." Tang Xin said.

: By the way, who's that girl behind Little Blue Bird? What's the relationship? Are they cohabiting? I see her in every stream.

: Yeah, yeah, I'm curious too, adding to the count.

Xu Xiaoyou stood behind Tang Xin, smiling and greeting the audience in the livestream room.

Tang Xin turned back for a glance and smiled slightly: "Just good friends, both so poor that we have to squeeze into this small room together."

After saying that, Tang Xin ended the livestream and stretched: "You, what are we having for dinner tonight?"

"If it's still fried rice, should I make it?"

At this moment, Xu Xiaoyou noticed her screen received a new email.

[S-class employee Xu Xiaoyou, codename 3604. We officially assign you the task: Capture the defector company executive Yorick.]

Xu Xiaoyou directly ignored it, she had clearly blacklisted Cosmic Heavy Industries, so how did this email come through?

Just as she was about to delete the email, out of sight out of mind, she caught sight of the last line, and her body trembled.

[Task reward: 10000 Inspiration and cancellation of all previous debts.]

[——Cosmic Heavy Industries Talent Strategy Resources Department.]

Ten thousand inspiration!

Equivalent to over a hundred million credit points, an astronomical figure she dared not even imagine before.

To her now, it was extremely important. She had been troubled over funding the registration and upkeep of Dream Chasing Media, a shell company, and if she didn't pay on time every month, the company she registered by paying a hefty price would be deregistered.

Completing a company assignment while clearing the debt in one go, is there such a good deal in the world?

Xu Xiaoyou didn't let herself get carried away by the tempting reward.

High returns often come with high risks, whether at the gambling table or elsewhere.

For it to offer such a high reward, this company assignment must be difficult, and that defector executive's identity is certainly not simple.

She pondered for a while and finally decided to take the assignment. Under the eaves, one has to lower their head.

Clicking confirmation on the screen to accept, it wasn't long before she received a call.

She answered the call, the screen changed, and a black-haired young man appeared on it, Xu Xiaoyou noticed his deep dark circles at a glance, making him look rather weakened.

"Hello, Miss Xu, I am the liaison for this task, you can call me Jian Liu."

Jian Liu smiled and spoke with polite and calm demeanor.

Xu Xiaoyou felt like she had seen this person somewhere before, then she remembered that during her near-imbalance over Anya's matter, this person was in the Dream of the Black Swan apartment with a boy beside him.

"What does the company say?"

"Some things are hard to clarify on screen, if you have the time, Miss Xu, please come to the address I sent."

"What's so hard to explain? I'll hang up if you speak in riddles." Xu Xiaoyou said coldly.

Jian Liu froze and then said: "Actually, I'm the head of the Dawn Office. It was directly commissioned by the higher-ups of Cosmic Heavy Industries for me to find you. The defector executive this time will be captured by my subordinates, two company Shadows, and you together."

"Can't you explain it in one go?" Xu Xiaoyou's face remained unchanged, though inside she was roiling.

He's the head of the Dawn Office?

She hadn't expected such a figure would actively seek her out. The Cleaner offices naturally had ranks, and the Dawn Office was at the forefront, awarded the "Dawn" codename as a Level 5 office by the association, boasting three top Prism Tier Cleaners, with tens of thousands of registered members, its scale large enough to have branches in most Nest Cities, with its roots and networks spread worldwide.

In the global power dynamics, the Dawn Office was a giant, and its headquarters in Daylight City, that mysterious ancient Nest City, was something Xu Xiaoyou had heard of, more weighty as it had existed before the New Era Calendar, drifting through the cracks of time and space, much like a ghost.

Rumor has it, each time it appears in the world, the sky streaks with thunder and lightning.

Why such a presence had its overseer appear in the Star of Art?
