Dual Worlds: I Have a Doomsday World

The slightest misstep could provoke the sensitive nerves of the corporations managing the major Cyber Cities.

Corporate warfare was something the Eastern Alliance had always resisted.

While Lin Qi was lost in thought, Liu Xuan wasn’t idle either.

Once the flying vehicle left the Fortress Road area, the cyber network returned to normal.

Liu Siqi hadn’t been crazy enough to target the entire city’s cyber network hardware.

Liu Xuan tried to contact Liu Xingyuan and Liu Xinglu, but unfortunately, there was still no response.

"Lin Qi, I still can’t reach Safe House 1. I’m a little worried about Father and Fourth Uncle."

Liu Xuan wasn’t just worried about Liu Siqi’s actions, but also the "unknown danger" that Lin Qi and Lin Xin had mentioned. If it were only Liu Siqi, she wouldn’t be nearly as concerned.

Lin Qi didn’t know what was happening with Liu Xingyuan and Liu Xinglu either, but someone else did.

Lin Qi coughed twice.

In the front seat, Lin Xin heard Lin Qi’s cough and immediately understood what he meant.

But then, Sister Li also coughed twice.

Lin Xin blinked, glanced at Sister Li, then decisively turned her head toward Liu Xuan and said, "Sister-in-law, don’t worry. Liu Clan Safe House 1 is very secure. I looked into it before coming to Fortress Road. The one who made a move was Liu Siqi, and he’s no match for your father or your fourth uncle."

"Now that you and my brother are both safe, Sister-in-law, Liu Siqi’s plan is completely ruined. He’s probably already planning his escape."

"At most, it’ll just be a few more hours before Liu Clan Safe House 1 can react. They should have a backup: a satellite-linked root service device for the cyber network."

Lin Xin’s fluent explanation surprised Lin Qi a little.

She wasn’t just reciting intelligence; it was a demonstration of her ability to integrate and analyze it. To top it off, she even showed off her knowledge of cyber network hardware.

’Looks like Lin Xin has learned a lot during her time in the Eastern Alliance,’ he thought.

As Lin Xin spoke, Sister Li, who was piloting the flying vehicle, started coughing violently.

Lin Xin said bluntly, "Sister Li, stop coughing. It’s not like this is classified intelligence."

Unable to hold back, Sister Li rolled her eyes. "You little troublemaker, can you please give it a rest? You might not be in trouble when you get back, but I probably will be!"

Sister Li felt like she had taken on a massive headache.

Originally, she had been a little excited when she received the assignment from Director Baili Xueyuan of the "Alliance Emergency Management Division for Asian Affairs."

Who was Baili Xueyuan?

She was the number two figure in the Assassin Alliance, one of only three Tier Four Blood Robes!

And the mission was to protect Director Baili Xueyuan’s student.

The Blood Robe Faction valued the master-student lineage; a student was an heir.

By becoming Baili Xueyuan’s student, Lin Xin was practically destined to be one of the top five figures in the Assassin Alliance’s future!

If she could reach Tier Four, she could, like Baili Xueyuan, leap to the number two position and even hold a nominal post in the Eastern Alliance.

Sister Li had thought this was her reward for twenty years of diligent, dedicated service to the Assassin Alliance since the age of ten.

Completing this mission was her chance at a transfer to headquarters.

Now, it seemed this wasn’t a reward, but a curse. She’d been saddled with a little overlord.

The Assassin Alliance was all about rules and secrecy; it was the core of how the organization maintained its mystique.

But this little overlord didn’t seem to give a damn about the confidentiality regulations!

She’d spill any and all information!

And all she did was break the rules.

In the reflection on the flying vehicle’s front windshield, Sister Li saw Lin Qi and Liu Xuan.

Her headache instantly got worse.

The brother of a major figure from a core Pharmacy enterprise in the Asian Administrative Region, plus a sister-in-law who was the daughter of a major corporate helmsman...

That kind of background guaranteed that there would be endless trouble surrounding this little overlord.

Sister Li really didn’t understand. How on earth did this little overlord pass the background check when she joined the Assassin Alliance?

Were the reviewers blind?

Did they not read a single word of her profile?

Clearly, Sister Li had no idea just how good a teacher Lin Xin had.

What Sister Li knew even less was that this teacher, Baili Xueyuan, was no stranger to breaking the rules herself on a regular basis.

Secretly meeting an old flame during a mission...

Leaking intelligence to that old flame...

Turning a blind eye to the old flame’s Mercenary teammates...

Baili Xueyuan’s "crimes" were clearly even more numerous than could be recorded.
