Extraordinary pedigree

Wearing the newly transformed rabbit mask, the Moon Rabbit looks particularly mysterious in this colorful Whispering Square. The mask not only conceals her true face, but also adds a mysterious and unpredictable temperament.

She reached out and opened the capsule series of positioning elements. The positioning elements were used to help team members develop each other after injecting the light-hiding agent.

After the positioning element was turned on, the teammates around her who had been giving her the flickering feeling suddenly became clear.

Then, her voice passed through the mask and was conveyed clearly and clearly to every team member

"All members dispersed to investigate, and based on the information given by the goblin merchants, found the two direct personnel from the 'vomiter' in the Whispering Square. At the same time, investigate and collect all information about the Whispering Square, and remember to open the message of the mechanical butler Sharing and operator assistance. Finally, remember, don’t cause unrest and don’t take action privately.”

After receiving the order, the other commando team members nodded to the Moon Rabbit to express their understanding.

Then, the Moon Rabbit made a simple but clear gesture. This was a signal within the task force, which meant that the team members could start to disperse.

After receiving the signal, the commandos of the task force began to spread out quickly but silently, each of them familiar with how to conduct reconnaissance and gather information without attracting attention.

After the team members dispersed, the Moon Rabbit called out the mechanical butler Rabbit.

The rabbit levitated beside her and turned on the optical cloaking device.

"Rabbit, turn on the real-time recording function, synchronize the law enforcement images to the director's office, and at the same time, start corresponding terrain mapping." She calmly ordered to Rabbit.

"Understood!" Rabbit responded, and then its mechanical-looking prosthetic eyes began to flow with countless turbulent flows of data.

After doing this, the Moon Rabbit began to wander around the magic fountain in the Whispering Square.

Her eyes always fell involuntarily on a statue in the center of the magic fountain.

There is a huge magic wand sculpture made of sterling silver in the center of the fountain. The tip of the wand points to the sky and sprays colorful magic water from time to time. When it falls into the fountain, it will make a sweet sound, like the sound of nature.

The Moon Rabbit's sense of crisis told her that this was a very dangerous hub defense weapon. It was precisely because of its existence that she asked other members of the task force not to do anything secretly.

She walked among the magic fountain, which was surrounded by a square made of magic stones. The square was dotted with various small magic plants, such as glowing luminous flowers and singing silver-leaf grass. These plants provide natural lighting and background music to the square at night.

There are several benches made of ancient wood around for people to rest and communicate.

The benches are engraved with patterns of various magical creatures. Touching these patterns will also make people feel the characteristics of the corresponding creatures. For example, the pattern of phoenix will give people warmth and comfort.

The Moon Rabbit walked and observed, thinking about the next task in his mind.

"According to the information provided by the goblin merchants, a large amount of foreign capital has settled in the Whispering Square. Many forces from all walks of life have set up their own production lines in the newly formed hub block. The 'Emetic' is naturally no exception. Their pharmaceutical factories It is most likely set up here in the Whispering Square."

The Edici Federation is one of the few alien forces that has completely opened market access to foreign races. Although the Oletin Empire and the Daeva Empire are both alien forces, they still use slavery for foreign races.

After the New World fell and the [Golden Tree] connected all realms, the Edici Federation announced in the alien state that aliens could also join the federation and become federal citizens, and established the "Alien Rights Act" to protect alien citizens in the federation. Legitimate interests.

Many alien forces from all walks of life have been attracted by the Federation's generous investment conditions. A large number of aliens have established business operations with the Federation, including establishing production facilities, purchasing local companies, or establishing joint ventures with local companies.

Many foreign manufacturers have also directly moved their production lines to hub neighborhoods and established production bases directly in target markets to help companies enter the big markets of the new world more effectively, bypass trade barriers such as high tariffs and import restrictions, and more directly meet the needs of local consumers. need.

The ‘vomiters’ have also kept pace with the times, and they have also moved their production lines to the hub block to bypass the dual interference in reality from the FBI and the Administration.

As we all know, the FBI can't stuff money, but the Bureau will not interfere with anything in the hub block.

Therefore, if the production line is established in the hub block, the Bureau of Investigation will not care about it.

The Administration has just been established. Although it is one of the three giants of the New Alliance, its interference and influence in the federation is extremely weak.

However, it is time for this weak attitude to change.

Moon Rabbit and her mechanical butler Adam walked slowly along the Whispering Square, carefully marking and observing each unique shop.

Everywhere in the square was filled with strange things, but her eyes were always looking for those that most caught her attention. Finally, her footsteps stopped in front of an astrology shop located in the corner of the square - [Thousand Eyes Star Observation House].

The appearance of this store presents a simple and mysterious style, with late night blue and starry silver as the main colors, which perfectly blends the depth of the night sky and the twinkling stars. Above the store, a sign made of phantom crystal hangs, with the name "Thousand Eyes Star Observation House" engraved on it.

Under the bright lights of the hub, this signboard shimmers softly under the starlight, as if guiding people with a deep desire for the stars to come and explore.

At the door, a small and exquisite copper telescope sculpture stands quietly, with the telescope lens pointing towards the sky.

The Moon Rabbit's keen intuition made her stop here. She followed her inner intuition and headed towards the stargazing room.

jingle--

When the Moon Rabbit opened the door of the Star Observation Room, the wind chimes on the door made a crisp and sweet sound, as if to welcome her arrival.

She stepped into the store, and her eyes were immediately attracted by the interior decoration full of astronomical and astrological elements.

The interior of the store is full of astronomical and astrological elements. The walls are covered with ancient star charts and celestial movement diagrams, as well as depictions of various constellations.

A large, sophisticated bronze telescope is placed in the center, pointed at the skylight, and customers can use it to observe specific stars.

There is a dedicated astrology area in the corner, equipped with a crystal ball, astrolabe and a complex set of astrological instruments.

The Moon Rabbit's eyes passed through the store's decorations that were full of star magic, and he was quickly attracted to the store manager, the short but slender halfling woman.

The old halfling woman's hair had a touch of silver gray, and was tied casually into a low ponytail. A few strands of broken hair hung gently beside her ears, adding a bit of gentleness and kindness.

Her attire is simple and practical, usually a soft brown robe with delicate star and moon patterns embroidered on the cuffs and collar, showcasing her love of astronomy. Around her neck hung a slender silver chain, and hanging from the chain was a small copper astrolabe.

In the Moon Rabbit's mind, he couldn't help but recall the race records about halflings: Halflings are usually between three and four feet tall (about 0.9 to 1.2 meters), and their bodies are shorter than ordinary humans.

They have very thick soles and long, curly foot hair, so halflings usually don't wear shoes.

Furthermore, halfling faces often appear youthful and happy, and they live longer than ordinary humans.

Halflings are known for their bravery, optimism, and loyalty. Although they tend to live quiet, uneventful lives, they can also display amazing courage and determination when necessary.

The old woman in front of me must be in her 70s, but her face is still full of mellow joy.

At this moment, in the quiet atmosphere of the Thousand Eyes Star Observation House, the old halfling woman was immersed in her own little enjoyment.

While she savored the sweets in her hands, she exhaled wisps of smoke from the gorgeous pipe. It seemed that such a moment gave her great satisfaction and peace.

When the wind chime sounded on the door, she raised her head slightly and looked at the door, but she just muttered to herself, "The wind is too strong, why did the door open?"

Apparently, she didn't notice the arrival of the Moon Rabbit who had applied the light-hiding agent.

The Moon Rabbit stood quietly beside her, observing the halfling woman who lived under the stars.

Memories of the unique and comfortable eating habits of halflings emerged in her mind - they were indeed famous foodies, and arranged multiple meals throughout the day, including breakfast, second breakfast, lunch, afternoon tea, dinner and midnight snacks.

This love and enjoyment of food seems to be one of the most talked about parts of halfling culture.

Indulging in the atmosphere of desserts and nicotine enjoyment, the old woman seemed unaware of the imminent danger.

If the Moon Rabbit is on an assassination mission at this moment, she only needs to take out the Star Breath, adjust it to silent mode, and then she can open the old woman's head without anyone noticing.

So the old woman is lucky.

The Moon Rabbit opened his mouth and called the old woman politely.

"Good evening, ma'am."

"ah--"

This simple and polite greeting echoed in the quiet astrology room, but it unexpectedly frightened the old woman named Eloldis.

She was enjoying her dessert while smoking the tobacco from her magnificent pipe, not expecting anyone to be in her presence at such an hour, especially as she had not noticed anyone entering the shop.

Eloldis trembled with fright, and the dessert in her left hand that she was about to put into her mouth fell directly to the ground, making a slight sound. Fortunately, the pipe in her hand was firmly held and she did not suffer the same fate.

There was a confused and frightened expression on her face, and her eyes were wide open as she looked at the bumpy "girl" who suddenly appeared in front of her wearing a mask, yellow rabbit ears on her head, and a field combat uniform. ".

"Who are you?"

Although the appearance of the Moon Rabbit surprised Eloldis for a moment, as an experienced astrologer, she quickly adjusted her emotions.

Eloldis subconsciously activated the necklace with the [Prediction Technique] around his neck. The compass on the necklace rotated several times, but it did not bring any feedback to it as usual.

There is no feedback, this is a magic trick that even the [Master] can predict a little bit of information...

Eloldis was extremely frightened in her heart, but she was experienced and did not show it.

"It is the first time for guests who come to Whispering Plaza to see the stargazing room and want to come in and see what they can gain." The Moon Rabbit replied in a cold tone.

"Harvest? What do you want, guest?" Eloldis took a puff of his pipe to suppress his shock, and then asked quickly.

The Moon Rabbit pointed to the ground beneath his feet.

"I want to know everything about the Whispering Square - the terrain, business conditions, local snakes, and the distribution of various racial forces."

Hearing Moon Rabbit's request, Eloldis' mouth opened slightly, showing a hint of surprise.

In the Whispering Square, newcomers who claim to know everything when they come here are usually adventurers who don't know the world, or powerful dragons with extraordinary strength and profound backgrounds.

She subconsciously looked at the guest in front of her, and the distant feeling of disappearance made her have to be very alert, for fear that if she was not careful, the visitor would disappear from her sight again.

Her eyes involuntarily fell on the bunny ears on the other person's head. This unique symbol confused her and made it difficult for her to determine the true identity of the visitor in front of her. The Whispering Square brings together races from all planes, and there may be an unknown story behind every new face.

But for a newcomer who knows nothing about the Whispering Square, especially one who proposes to "know everything" in such a direct way, there is a high probability that he is pointing to humans.

In human terms...

Eloldis struggled in her heart. The other party had really found someone. In the Whispering Square, in the Magic Fountain area, she, Eloldis Star Eyes, did have all the first-hand information in this area.

She herself is the leader of information dealers in this area, and she knows the ins and outs of every corner and shop in the square.

Facing a visitor like the Moon Rabbit, Eloldis had to weigh his options.

On the one hand, she hopes to maintain the neutrality of her shop and herself and provide help to those seeking knowledge; on the other hand, she must also consider the general attitude of the Whispering Square towards human beings.

In this multi-racial society, hostility to humans will be amplified, and hatred of human beings has become a common emotion.

She knows that any race that prefers humans will encounter varying degrees of rejection and hostility here, which may not only endanger her own safety, but may also affect her business and status in the square.

"Does my request embarrass you?" The Moon Rabbit's voice was cold and direct, interrupting Eloldis's contemplation. Her words were concise, but they directly touched Eloldis's inner hesitation and struggle.

Eloldis felt a bit of pressure, and her heart became tense due to Moon Rabbit's straightforward question.

She looked at the Moon Rabbit, and those eyes that were vaguely visible through the rabbit mask were indifferent and cold, which made Eloldis feel a feeling that could not be easily ignored.

Facing the Moon Rabbit's inquiry, Eloldis tried to keep a sneer on his face and tried to answer in a relaxed tone: "Guest, am I appraising the price?"

Although she said this, in fact, she was already thinking about whether she should directly drive away this uninvited visitor.

In the complex environment of Whispering Square, where multiple races coexist, any careless behavior may lead to unpredictable consequences.

Eloldis was born into a family of halflings with a deep interest in the stars.

From an early age, she was drawn to her family's stories and knowledge of celestial bodies and astrology, an interest that only grew stronger as she grew older.

Her curiosity led her to delve into astrology, spending decades traveling around the world to learn from master astrologers of all races.

The process not only enriched her knowledge base but also honed her skills.

On her 70th birthday, Eloldis decided to share her accumulated knowledge and passion with the wider world and opened the Thousand Eyes Star Observation House in Whisper Square.

This decision made her a respected astrologer in the square. However, after all, her shop is self-operated and cannot be compared with those big forces with huge capital and talents. She can open a shop on this street. Being an intelligence dealer relies on absolute neutrality and one's own agility.

Now, she felt that she should drive away the uninvited guest in front of her - he might bring bloody disaster to the Whispering Square.

"Guest, how about this..." Old Eloldis began to try to deal with this difficult request in a vague way, hoping to send the Moon Rabbit away amicably. However, before she could finish her words, the Moon Rabbit directly interrupted her.

"Five hundred thousand dollars." The Moon Rabbit interrupted Eloldis, "And I guarantee that as long as you don't tell it, no one will know that the information came from you. Moreover, in the future, you or your If something happens in the store, I will help you."

Ah this...

The number of five hundred thousand made the old woman's heart beat violently.

A single order of 500,000 yuan is not necessarily the amount she needs for a year.

For foreigners, if there is 10% profit, they will ensure that it is used everywhere; if there is 20% profit, they can become active; if there is 50% profit, they will take risks; for 100% profit , they dare to trample all extraordinary laws; with more than 300% profit, they dare to commit any crime, and even risk being dismembered by the angels of heaven.

Moreover, the promise made by the Moon Rabbit is a strong guarantee for her, which means that this unusual customer not only has the ability to pay the fee, but also can provide her or her store with services in the future. help.

The balance in his heart tilted rapidly, and Eloldis made a decision quickly.

"Are you willing to sign a confidentiality agreement on a contract made of [golden bark]? If you are willing, the deal is done." There was no longer any hesitation in her tone, and her principles and scruples seemed to be thrown away. The back of the head.

"Of course." A bright smile appeared behind the mask of the Moon Rabbit, but it was a pity that Eloldis couldn't see it.

She didn't know what kind of savage beast her behavior of leading the way had introduced into the Whispering Square.

Moreover, didn’t Eloldis guess the power behind the Moon Rabbit?

Not necessarily, she just doesn't care.

As long as she can make money and take care of herself, she doesn't care about the floods that will follow!

***********

The headquarters of the Honkai Authority, Helselem Tower.

In the Helselem Tower at the headquarters of the Honkai Authority, night is like a mysterious veil, wrapping this tower that represents power and wisdom in tranquility and darkness.

"Transfer one million to the bearer [financial card] account I just reported. You said bill reimbursement? No, you don't need to report to the Kingdom of Heaven, just transfer it directly to me. Yes, to Eddie, the resident in Fog City Just tell me my name at the bank in the west." Xia Xiu stood in the office, next to the floor-to-ceiling observation glass window, through which he could see the bright starry sky outside and the bustling city below.

He is carrying a silver cane and is communicating with the authority's finance department via a virtual phone channel.

On the other end of the phone channel, the voice from the Finance Department responded respectfully and quickly:

"Yes, I'll do it now!"

Pfft——

The disconnection of the phone channel echoed in the quiet office, marking the official end of Xia Xiu's communication with the finance department.

Immediately, his attention returned to the space in front of him, where virtual projection screens appeared, displaying the messages sent to him by the Moon Rabbit.

Against the backdrop of the night, these light curtains look like stars suspended in the sky. Each screen carries important information from the Whispering Square.

Xia Xiu stood in front of these virtual screens, his blond hair shining softly in the dim light of the office, his golden eyes reflecting the flow of information on the screen, and his expression full of concentration.

——Secret Whisper Square——

Heartland-Magic Fountain Area

Located in the heart of Whispering Square, centered around an ancient magical fountain. The fountain is surrounded by beautifully laid magical stone slabs, and the edges are filled with glowing magical plants and flowers, providing natural light and color to the square.

————————

"It's really prosperous."

Under the night, his standing figure looked particularly lonely and determined. His blond hair flashed in the dim light, and his golden eyes reflected the information on the virtual screen in front of him.

With a soft murmur, he stretched out his right hand and spread his fingers. The movement was slow and full of meaning.

At this moment, under the night, he seemed to have the power to hold up the sky and hold the fate of Whispering Square in his hands.

Under his palm is a virtual map of the entire terrain of Whispering Square. The details are clear and every street and shop can be seen at a glance. This map is a comprehensive grasp of Whispering Square and preparation for the upcoming action.

Xia Xiu's five fingers slowly closed together, and the detailed map seemed to have encountered an invisible force, gradually falling into boundless darkness, and finally disappeared, as if it had been mercilessly swallowed.

Then, as the map disappeared, all the curtain projections were turned off, and the office returned to its previous tranquility and darkness. Only the blond young man was left standing there quietly, as if nothing had ever happened.
