Chapter 260 Ace Agent
Three days later.
At night, dark clouds hung low.
Streetlights lit up one by one, their dim yellow halos diffusing in the moist air. Looking up, one could see thick layers of gray clouds, beneath which fine rain draped diagonally through the shrilling wind. Branches swayed gently, rustling softly.
Over these three days, Lin Chuan had let the situation unfold.
He occasionally "leaked" information to Karl, thereby passing it on to Yu Qin.
Lin Chuan had finally confirmed—
Yu Qin was the "commander" of the Morgan Group. He communicated with Karl on one hand and directed Lucas on the other, and he was also responsible for coordinating with the Sania Weapons Research Company.
He was a key figure.
At this moment, Lin Chuan had made thorough preparations, just waiting for the court session on December 20, when the real performance would begin.
Another piece of good news!
— The Haas Armed Forces had publicly launched the 370-kilometer-range Remote Box-type Rocket Launcher for the first time. After three days of fermentation, it caused quite a stir both domestically and internationally.
Opinions varied, good and bad.
Because of this, the number of people recognizing the weapon had increased.
Finally, that evening, the system issued a notification—
[Congratulations, host. Your work "Arms Tycoon" has exceeded 80,000 in Popularity Value.]
[Furthermore, your "PHL-191 Remote Box-type Rocket Launcher," 370-kilometer range version, has now been recognized by over one hundred thousand people.]
[Assessment task completed!]
[Would you like to immediately start experiencing your next career life?]
Sitting in his study, Lin Chuan leaned back in his chair, unable to suppress a triumphant smile.
The sound of the system was so pleasant!
The assessment task had its ups and downs!
He had thought he could complete it through the "National Weapon Innovative Design Competition," but the chosen weapon was too advanced and was directly 'eliminated' in the preliminaries, bypassing the finals and rushing straight to the development phase.
Oh, no. It wasn't the development phase but the verification and manufacturing phase.
On December 19, the Rocket Launcher group led by the National Weapons Research Institute would launch the 600-kilometer range version of the 'Remote Box-type Rocket Launcher.'
Lin Chuan wasn't sure how long it would take for the National Weapons Research Institute to launch, so he pinned his hopes on the Haas Armed Forces.
Luckily, the Haas Armed Forces did not disappoint and successfully launched the rocket, allowing Lin Chuan to complete his assessment task.
Moreover, many armed groups and national regions showed strong interest in this 370-kilometer range version of the Remote Box-type Rocket Launcher, with some already making secret contacts with Leo.
Leo, being Lin Chuan's loyal ally, hadn't kept this from him.
However, these potential clients, due to Lin Chuan having a major legal case pending, chose to wait and see.
First, they would see how things unfolded.
Lin Chuan wasn't annoyed.
He didn't just want to win this legal battle; he wanted to win it impressively!
Moreover, he intended to use this opportunity to crush Morgan Group's military weapons business!
Sighing deeply, Lin Chuan pulled his thoughts back to the system.
A new career, new expectations.
I'm coming!
"Initiate the experience of a new career life!" Lin Chuan said lightly.
The system immediately responded—
[Received, starting now!]
[Please be prepared, host!]
As the system's voice fell, Lin Chuan's vision began to blur. All this was too familiar to him.
His surroundings were a hazy gray.
This was the isolation space between reality and the Virtual World, where he would draw his new career.
At that moment, the system instructed—
[Host, please take note.]
[Each experience is a beautiful memory for you.]
[This system will preserve this memory for you in the form of a novel.]
[Assigning your next career experience randomly.]
[Please wait...]
Lin Chuan was an old hand at these procedures and quietly waited.
After so many career life experiences, Lin Chuan had cultivated a tranquil mindset, especially concerning career draws. This capricious system could always throw a big curveball.
A moment's inattention could lead to prison!
Therefore, Lin Chuan steeled himself.
Keep calm, stay composed!
[Congratulations!]
[Your career for this experience is...]
[Agent!]
[For this career, no skill enhancements; your physical abilities and overall quality are enhanced. Enjoy your experience!]
The system's voice echoed in Lin Chuan's mind.
Immediately, Lin Chuan's brows furrowed, "Damn! No skills this time, meaning I have to bare-run through the agent life in the Virtual World?"
The system responded—
[Indeed!]
Lin Chuan retorted frustratedly: "With a face like mine, can I be an agent?" Enjoy new adventures at empire
The gray, hazy space was silent for a while.
The system did not respond.
Lin Chuan guessed that the system was at a loss for words.
He had seen many spy films and series where it was often mentioned that an excellent agent shouldn't let others remember his face.
—Even though in those series, every male lead was incredibly handsome, 'self-deluding'.
Like "The Pretender," old Hu.
Just one glance and you'd remember!
Although Lin Chuan's appearance wasn't extremely handsome, being memorable after a couple of looks was not a problem.
His demeanor was there, hard to conceal.
"Well... if it comes down to it, I'll just use seduction; that counts as an agent tactic too!" Lin Chuan half-joked to himself.
First, check out the situation in the Virtual World!
With the experience from careers like Thief, Swindler, Assassin, and Hacker, navigating an 'agent scenario' should not be too difficult!
