Chapter 500: 224 This High-Level Game [Third Update! Additional Update]

The hotel’s projection screen switched with the morning news.

"No doubt, in yesterday’s terrorist attack, the White Ghost once again turned the tide. He always appeared at the right place, doing the right thing when the people needed him. That’s a true hero, he is a true hero!"

"The White Ghost should be on Yaha Star. He might be here for tourism, or he got the news early."

"With the White Ghost around, we feel at ease. I’m an ordinary citizen, not good with words, but I believe the White Ghost, with his ultimate personal heroism, is writing the glory and honor an ancient Empire should have. We shouldn’t be hunting him down; we should tolerate him, treat him well, and he will become our Guardian God."

"Hey! Hey! Everyone! You’re the elite of the news world, are you going to engage in a pointless debate here? I still hold the same view, admitting the White Ghost as a hero would be an insult to all the soldiers of the Empire."

"Compared to this elusive hero, perhaps we can look at the real heroes right beside us, who have achieved considerable feats with their own power - Hui Saka! This young detective used his wit and intelligence to save the panicked crowd, and he is the one we should praise on the news channel."

Whoosh!

Yang Ming turned off the projection, rubbing his head a bit tiredly.

From late last night until now, his communicator had been ringing incessantly, as if the whole world suddenly discovered his brilliance, with TV shows and official discussion invitations pouring in.

Yang Ming initially wanted to refuse them all.

But then he thought, what was he here for?

Wasn’t it to gain fame using Hui Saka’s identity? Isn’t this just what he wanted?

Fortunately, Lyu, who never needed rest, picked a few opportunities for him to show up. In two hours, he would start his busy day.

He was now a true detective.

Even though his fame didn’t come from solving a major case.

cared for Godoy’s family in secret; even breakfast had to be made by Yang Ming himself.

He casually made himself some fast food and gobbled it down, then searched for his desired outfit in the wardrobe Lyu filled overnight, finally choosing a gray plaid suit.

Changing his hairstyle in an all-in-one styling machine, the aura of a single noble was instantly enhanced.

"Boss!"

Lyu’s projection blossomed from a pixie ball, transforming into a figurine-like young girl.

"I have good news!"

Her daring appearance indicated the room was absolutely safe.

Yang Ming chuckled, "Speak."

"The Empire officials seem to have started starmaking. They began spreading entries about Hui Saka throughout the internet, apparently intending to divert some of the White Ghost’s traffic with Hui Saka!"

Yang Ming replied, "...6."

"Suppress the traffic a little, giving the spotlight to the victims."

Yang Ming pondered briefly, then said slowly, "We can’t become famous too fast, or we may easily backfire. This wave of attention is enough."

"Okay, Boss," Lyu nodded obediently, then started hesitating.

Yang Ming wondered, "What’s wrong? Is there something even Miss Lyu finds challenging? Want a new processor? Or an expansion of your hard drive?"

"Boss," Lyu asked softly, "if we mastered the method to trigger the hidden Insect Swarms, would you choose to trigger them? Just by creating chaos for the Empire, the White Ghost could continue fighting the Swarms, and his reputation would continue to soar."

Yang Ming pondered.

Lyu’s question certainly wasn’t baseless, indicating that there was some progress in Hera’s experiments.

Last time, Lyu seemed to mention that Hera’s latest research results might be ready for trial and promotion.

"I act in my own interest," Yang Ming said, "however, if there are two methods that both satisfy my interests, we should choose the way that causes the least innocent deaths and injuries."

"I understand."

Lyu pondered for a moment with her chin in her hand.

Yang Ming asked, "Did Hera come up with something new again?"

"According to Miss Hera’s latest calculations, the Insect Race might still have deep protection and revenge mechanisms."

Lyu said quickly,

"In recent years, within the Empire’s territory, fifty-two Insect Race groups have already suffered catastrophic disasters."

"Although these Space Worm Clans were catalytically bred by the New Federation, they are independent Insect Race groups, and they have now triggered a linkage protection mechanism, with information flow between groups, each hiding completely in their own abodes."

"If the Empire gains a new detection method, for example, our active inducement detectors that have passed phase two trials, it’s very likely they’ll discover more hidden Insect Races."

"We estimate that there are at least sixty hidden Swarms still within the Empire, quietly developing."

Yang Ming leaned back, "What’s so difficult about this?"

"Uh, isn’t it difficult?"

"Of course, although I don’t like the Empire, the Insect Race is humanity’s enemy, this is a matter of principle."

Yang Ming said slowly,

"Discovering the Swarms early allows us to prevent them early. Even if the Swarms have a revenge mechanism, the Empire has Dreadnoughts and gigantic fortresses."

"If these insects are allowed to develop steadily for ten or twenty years, still in a state of accelerated division and reproduction, that would trigger a real full-scale disaster, and it would also trigger the Swarms’ revenge mechanism by then."

Lyu said softly, "I’m just torn, should we find and eliminate the hidden Swarms now, or wait ten years to create new development opportunities?"
