I Have A Game Clone

Chapter 28



Official Invitation

Compared to her previous visit, Yun Moxiang was obviously dressed more exquisitely this time.

She wore a sleeveless, polka-dotted shirt with a knee-length skirt and a purple ribbon tied around her waist, outlining her alluring figure. Her face was meticulously decorated with makeup, and she looked smart, capable and cute.

Ning Shi, however, frowned. It was very clear that this woman was dressed up for a purpose.

“What’s the matter?”

Yun Moxiang walked into the rented house and sat on the sofa.

“Mr Ning, you don’t seem to welcome me very much?”

“Yes, I don’t like you and I don’t welcome you either,” Ning Shi didn’t know where this woman’s confidence came from. “You’re not a Saturn coin.”

Yun Moxiang’s expression froze. She was rendered speechless by Ning Shi for a long time.

She had dressed up meticulously today and even put on perfume, hoping to take advantage of her looks to take the initiative in the conversation. Who would have thought that Ning Shi wouldn’t fall for her trick at all?

Yun Moxiang was extremely capable and knew how to be flexible. She immediately changed her strategy and went straight to the point.

“Mr Ning, I’m here today on behalf of the Special Affairs Department. I would like to invite you to become a consultant for the Special Affairs Department.”

Seeing that Ning Shi was silent, Yun Moxiang continued, “There are three levels of official consultants. From the lowest to the highest: consultant for the investigation team, consultant for the Investigation Department and consultant for the Special Affairs Department.”

“Each level of consultant has a corresponding treatment.”

Ning Shi chuckled. “They also have corresponding obligations.”

Yun Moxiang shook her head.

“There is no mandatory obligation. The actions of the consultants are entirely voluntary.”

“The purpose of the consultant system is to unite the strength of the experts among the people. The government will invite experts among the people who don’t like to be tied down but have a righteous heart and want to do something for the country as consultants.”

“We will issue missions or work content to the consultant regularly. Whether the consultant wants to do it or not is entirely up to him. The government will not interfere.”

“As the highest-level consultant, the consultants of the Special Affairs Department have the right to arrest all kinds of criminals on their own. They enjoy the treatment of a division-level cadre, with an annual salary of 1,000,000 Saturn coins. Every year, they will be given a B-level spiritual crystal and an independent house in the Peach Blossom district. Their entire family can stay in the house.”

“The above is the basic treatment. The rewards for completing the missions and work content for the consultants will be counted separately. Every year, based on the performance of the consultants, the Special Affairs Department will also award the best consultant. Last year, the best consultant was awarded an A-level spiritual crystal.”

Ning Shi finally understood that the consultant system was the official scheme.

Awakeners had desires. In fact, the awakeners’ desires were even stronger than ordinary people’s.

Cultivation resources, social status and the most common Saturn coins. Every awakener could not avoid these things.

As long as one became a consultant, under the drive of these needs, they would unknowingly help the government to do things.

Of course, the government would not force anyone, because their desires would drive them to do it.

Ning Shi had a game avatar and was not interested in these things. His focus was very special.

“Peach Blossom district? Is there anything special about this district?”

Hearing this question, Yun Moxiang thought for a while and said, “According to the system, only after you become a consultant will you have the right to know the relevant information. Considering the special circumstances, I will make an exception and explain it to you.”

Hearing Yun Moxiang’s words, Ning Shi was shocked. He was not interested in official secrets, and knowing too much was not a good thing.

Just as he was about to reject her, he heard Yun Moxiang’s question.

“Have you heard of ‘Centuries’?”

Ning Shi immediately swallowed his words of rejection and replied, “It seems to be a book of poems. I’ve heard of it before.”

“Mr Ning is indeed worthy of being a top graduate of Donglin University. He is knowledgeable and has a wide range of knowledge.”

Yun Moxiang gave him a small pat on the back. This was her usual tactic.

Praising a man and looking at him with adoration would usually make a man so proud that he would forget himself.

Unfortunately, Ning Shi was unmoved. Yun Moxiang was not discouraged either and continued to speak.

“‘Centuries’ is a book of prophetic poems. It has been widely circulated in the Western world. Because the things predicted in the book of poems are extremely accurate, the Western aristocracy has made many cuts to it. Now, what ordinary people see is a condensed version. Many of the prophecies are vague.”

“According to ‘Centuries’, the original book of poems, starting from 1980, a new wave of spiritual energy will surge, and awakeners with superpowers will appear. God has given human beings 40 years of development time, starting from 2020, human beings will experience three disasters. The first one will be the insect disaster, the second one will be the beast disaster, and the third one will be the spiritual disaster.”

“After the three disasters, the world will become flat.”

Ning Shi questioned, “Don’t tell me the authorities also believe in such groundless predictions?”

“We have to believe it.” Yun Moxiang walked straight to the fridge and took out a bottle of Sprite. She opened it and took a sip. “First of all, the first awakener that mankind can find is called William. He is from the Kingdom of Mies.”

“While skiing in the wild, he crashed into a tree and suffered multiple fractures. His blood attracted a pack of gray wolves. He was about to die at the hands of the wolves. In his despair, he awakened his fire power and burned the gray wolves to death.”

“This man later founded the infamous cult — the Pantheon of Gods. He called himself the Flame God. The Flame Messenger Brian, whom you killed, was his apostle.”

“William’s awakening date was 1980, which is exactly the same as the prophecy in the ‘Centuries’.”

Ning Shi touched his nose. “The reason why the authorities believe in the ‘Centuries’ so much is that the insect disaster appeared in 2020?”

“It’s so easy to chat with Mr Ning, you catch up pretty quickly.”

Ning Shi immediately understood everything.

“Is it because of the threat of the insect disaster that the authorities are recklessly carrying out the National Awakening?”

Yun Moxiang sighed at the mention of the National Awakening, as if she was dissatisfied.

“The National Awakening was an accident. No, perhaps it was also a necessity!”

“What do you mean?”

“The awakening potion was developed by the evil scientist H. The country originally did not have a plan for the National Awakening. It was H who took the plan and the potion, found the leader and finally carried out the National Awakening.”

“That’s why I said that the National Awakening was an accident.”

“But thinking about the pressure the insect disaster gave the country, even without H, the government would sooner or later push for an even crueler National Awakening. Everything is inevitable.”

Ning Shi concluded, “Everything is for the survival and continuation of the nation.”

Yun Moxiang glanced at Ning Shi and sincerely praised him for the first time, “You’re right, for survival.”

“Judging from your tone, you seem to be very dissatisfied with scientist H?”

“I don’t know H’s specific identity, but I do know his background. H is the leader of an evil organization called the Heretic Research Institute. The Heretic Research Institute was established by a group of mad scientists. In order to research the mysteries of supernatural abilities, they captured human awakeners to conduct experiments on them. It can be said that they committed all kinds of evil deeds.”

“As the leader of this kind of organization, you can imagine what kind of person H is.”

Ning Shi sensed that there might be some personal grudges between Yun Moxiang and H. Her words were filled with hostility and hatred toward H.

“Since H is so evil, why would the authorities still cooperate with them?”

Yun Moxiang did not answer. When she talked about H, she seemed to have lost her original confidence and calmness.

Ning Shi changed the topic. “Then, the Peach Blossom district is a safe house built by the authorities?”

Yun Moxiang took a deep breath and adjusted her emotions, she replied, “That’s right. In order to let the combatants have nothing to worry about, the authorities have built hundreds of Peach Blossom districts throughout the country. These districts have the highest level of defense and security protection, and are specially built for the relatives of the combatants to live in.”

“Even if the insect disaster enters the country, the safety of the Peach Blossom district is also the most guaranteed.”

Ning Shi was stunned. The pressure from the authorities seemed to be really great, and they had even built a large number of safe houses.

Seeing Ning Shi’s solemn expression, Yun Moxiang explained, “The situation of the insect disaster is very grim, but the world has not collapsed because of it. The reason why we are taking the current measures is mainly to prevent the beast disaster and the spiritual disaster after that.”

“According to the predictions of the ‘Centuries’, the beast and spiritual disasters are even more terrifying than the insect disaster.”

Ning Shi nodded and asked another question.

“Why did the authorities not make timely arrangements for the newly awakened youths and instead, let them grow wild?”

Hearing Ning Shi question the official arrangements, not only was Yun Moxiang not angry, but she was secretly happy. Ning Shi was indeed a hot-blooded youth who cared about society, and his overall score of 87 was justified.

“As I said earlier, the implementation of the National Awakening was originally an accident. Although the official had prepared for a period of time, many aspects still had flaws.”

“The main reason was that the vast majority of the official forces were in the fight against the insect disaster. With regards to the National Awakening, they were lacking in manpower. Moreover, within the organization, many people’s mentality had changed after learning about the insect disaster. For example, Wang Yunlin. People were uncertain, hence many things had not been executed well.”

“However, don’t worry. Minister Hu Changjun of the Special Affairs Department has already rectified all the mistakes he made previously.”

“Now, the conditions for opening an Awakener School have already been met. These youngsters will soon receive formal education and guidance.”

Ning Shi knew that the government was also trying to cross the river by feeling for a rock when it came to the National Awakening. It was impossible to achieve perfection.

“Speaking of schools, we will open a special school for strength-type awakeners in Donglin City. We would like to invite you to be the principal. I don’t know if you are willing to.”

Ning Shi was shocked!

“Make me the principal? You must be joking!”

In Ning Shi’s inherent impression, the principal was a respected old man.

“That’s right, you are the strongest among the strength-type awakeners. In order to help you raise your prestige, we have already posted the video of you defeating Wang Yunlin with one punch on the Internet.”

“It won’t be long before you become the driving force and direction for all the strength-type awakeners. You’re the most suitable candidate to be the principal.”

“The establishment of the school, all the matters will be taken care of by the authorities. You only need to occasionally participate in the teaching.”

Ning Shi was still willing to do something for the strength-type awakeners. However, he was not a strength-type awakener after all. How could he teach them?

“I need to consider the matter of the consultant and the principal.”

After receiving Ning Shi’s answer, Yun Moxiang smiled and stood up, preparing to leave.

Before she left, she said, “If you are interested in prophecies, you can look at the ancient books of the Yunmeng Kingdom. For example, Jiang Ziya’s ‘Song of Ten Thousand Years’ and Li Chunfeng and Yuan Tiangang’s ‘Back-Pushing Sketch’.”

“In fact, the time span of the ancient prophecies in our country is longer. It’s a pity that the ancient people’s words are concise and many details need to be analyzed by later generations. They are not as straightforward as ‘Centuries’.”
