Fate Reignites: My Rampage in a World Where Time Stops-Chapter 68 Gold Talent Exposed!

Surprised that there was still an undiscovered player in Changxing City, Lan Cheng quickly regained his composure under Zhou Zixiu's gaze.

"Not enough," he began slowly, "You should know that the few people we are currently vying for are also players in the top ten of the Spiritual Beast List."

"Qin Chuan's strength has met the standard for cooperation. If there are new cooperative spots available in the future, we can consider him, but not now."

Zhou Zixiu was not surprised by Lan Cheng's response. He tapped the desk with his knuckles, "I have one more thing to add."

"I've checked the transaction records of the exchange."

"Qin Chuan only traded for low-level resources once."

"And... it was before the first weekly settlement."

"What?!" Lan Cheng abruptly stood up, locking eyes with Zixiu for a moment before settling back down, using his privileges to start querying data.

Moments later, his expression turned complex, "It's actually true."

If just before, Qin Chuan's importance wasn't high enough for Lan Cheng, now his significance had far surpassed the others that the Special Affairs Group was dealing with.

Qin Chuan's transaction records indicated two things.

First, before the first weekly settlement, he already had the ability to obtain low-level resources.

The only way to get low-level resources at that time was by normal means, which meant Qin Chuan had to either steal low-level resources under the noses of Growth Rank Guardian Beasts or kill Growth Rank Spiritual Beasts to obtain their dropped resources.

Of course, Qin Chuan might have been lucky enough to find wild low-level resources unguarded by Growth Rank Spiritual Beasts, but according to the current intelligence of the Special Affairs Group, this possibility was very slim.

Second, he did not trade for low-level resources after the weekly settlement and managed to advance.

Discounting the extremely slight possibility of randomly obtaining the needed resources, the biggest possibility was...

He acquired self-select low-level resources, so there was no need to barter.

The Achievement Store could refresh self-select low-level resources, but only one.

So the last piece of self-select low-level resources...

"Is he the number one on the Spiritual Beast List of one of the game's regions?" Lan Cheng rubbed his temples, incredulous, "My Changxing City actually has such an incredible talent?"

"When I saw the transaction record, I was also surprised." Zhou Zixiu laughed, "That spot..."

"Give it! I'm going to kick someone out right this moment," Lan Cheng said without hesitation, picking up the phone.

If Qin Chuan were here, he would be the most surprised person.

Because through a web of clues, and mostly incorrect deductions, these two had stumbled upon the right conclusion by chance.

How outrageous.

Soon after giving instructions over the phone, Lan Cheng put it down, "You're familiar with him, so you go discuss the contract with him."

"Sure," Zixiu nodded with a smile.

Done.

"The top of the Spiritual Beast List..." Lan Cheng rubbed his hands together, his face showing curiosity, "Can you determine his player name?"

Unlike the top ten of the list, there were only 9999 players who made it to number one on the Juvenile Stage Spiritual Beast List during the weekly settlement across the entire Dream World, making it not that difficult to investigate.

"We can narrow it down," Zixiu tapped the desk again, "Out of the 9999 players, there are a total of 896 players who have contracted Water Attribute Spiritual Beasts, and 273 of them use a Chinese Player Name."

"Among these people, approximately 183 have an advancement time that matches up," Zixiu paused, "Because Ji Huai didn't have a combat training yesterday, this count also includes those who advanced the night before."

"Of course, Qin Chuan might be using a player name in another language." Zixiu confidently smiled, "If we count all 896, there's a total of 542 players whose advancement time matches."

"As soon as Qin Chuan contracts a second Spiritual Beast, this range will be significantly reduced." Zixiu tapped on the desk again, "Keep an eye on him, we'll eventually confirm his player name."

"But..." Zixiu's tone shifted, "Is his player name that important?"

"Important, and not important," Lan Cheng smiled.

After the Extraordinary Descent into reality, aside from the initially public "Temporary Management Measures of Yanhuang Country for Special Affairs", there was also a confidential internal document of the Special Affairs Group known as "Dream World Player Real-Name Management Measures".

Leveraging big data related to the Extraordinary, Yanhuang Country planned to use the immense computing power of supercomputing to accurately pinpoint the player name for every citizen of Yanhuang Country, realizing real-name management for Dream World players.

Due to the current lack of information, this work was not progressing smoothly, with only one-thousandth of players successfully identified, but as time passed and the big data refined, the number of players identified in real-name would exponentially increase.

Real-name did not mean the Yanhuang Country intended to do anything to its citizens.

It was an invisible supervision, and also a form of protection.

If an extraordinarily vicious criminal appeared and proved difficult to apprehend, starting with the Dream World to kill the contracted Spiritual Beast or the person themselves to reduce or destroy their extraordinary ability, offered a completely new approach to criminal apprehension.

Likewise, when real-world citizens encountered difficulties and needed help, starting from the Dream World by sending players from the Special Affairs Group of the same region for support and assistance could also become a new feasible method.

Although not yet thoroughly publicized, an amendment from the supreme law of Yanhuang Country had already been confirmed to be included in the next edition of the supreme law.

Player accounts in the Dream World, along with the contracted Spiritual Beasts and resources obtained, are part of the private property of Yanhuang Country's citizens, inviolable!

Therefore, even if the Special Affairs Group did confirm Qin Chuan's player name, as an official organization, they would keep the citizen's information confidential and act as if unaware unless necessary.

That's why Lan Cheng would say such a thing.

Important, and not important.

"Alright, if there's nothing else, I'll be leaving," Zhou Zixiu got up and headed for the office door.

Just like Lan Cheng had said, he wasn't the type to come without a good reason.

He came this time to secure a special cooperation agreement spot for Qin Chuan, and now that the matter was settled, it was time for him to leave.

"Are you going to talk to Qin Chuan now?" Lan Cheng couldn't help but ask.

"Tomorrow," Zixiu smiled, "Today is one of the rare holidays for senior high school students, and those who encroach on a high school senior's holiday are assholes without assholes, and those who eat instant noodles without the flavor packet!"

"What are you even talking about..."

Watching Zhou Zixiu's casual departure, Lan Cheng was speechless with dumbfoundment.

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

Qin Chuan himself was completely unaware of the Special Affairs Group's discussion about him.

Due to the quick end of the combat assessments, Qin Chuan had a half-day holiday today.

With two hundred thousand in hand, he could afford a little splurge today. He had rarely gone out to shop, buying some clothes that he had normally hesitated to purchase and also some essential household items, returning to his rental with bags aplenty.

Just as he finished organizing the newly bought items, Qin Chuan's phone rang.

It was Xiaopang.

Before Qin Chuan could even speak, Xiaopang's hurried voice came through.

"Qin Chuan, quickly open the Dream Realm Forum!"

"A player with a gold-grade Talent has revealed themselves!"
