It was bad enough that they couldn't kill the leader of the Gene Primordial. Now they couldn't even defeat a small fry who could only break free from Yulia's fake body restraint by bursting out, and they even exposed the existence of the spy. Were they going to be humiliated by Ordinary passersby next?
They truly had no shame!
The head of the combat unit was drenched in sweat and quickly explained.
"Lily wasn't killed because she is actually a Spiritual Energy Prayer Master. No one knew this intelligence before, so she managed a counter-kill based on that information asymmetry. Now we've figured out her background and can send more powerful assassins to send her on her way anytime, but…"
"But what?"
The head, trembling with fear, first explained the situation at Four Directions.
"President, Lily not being assassinated this time might not necessarily be a bad thing. Now the Gene Primordial Intelligence Bureau is in chaos because of the internal spy and even wants to use Lily to play a 'lure the snake out of its hole' game to capture our spy. They have no energy to focus on our other operations."
The President pondered for a moment.
That was true. From this perspective, Lily was actually a very good chess piece. Her existence could tie up a lot of the Intelligence Bureau's energy.
"Then let Lily live a few more days. Let our people play around with the Intelligence Bureau, and when the time comes, we'll send Lily on her way!"
The head of the combat unit quickly agreed.
The President sneered. A small fry, could she really turn the tables?
…
Lily waited for an entire day.
During this time, because Excavation Princess hadn't seen her for almost two days, many people on the forum thought something had happened to her. She specifically sent someone to tell Excavation Princess that she was fine, just encountering some minor trouble. Unexpectedly, this small gesture sparked intense discussion among players. Many players felt that her doing so must have a deeper meaning.
[What, Lily encountered trouble?]
[What's there to be surprised about? If Lily didn't encounter trouble, where would we have a chance to appear?]
[Excavation Princess is only level 9 now; there's still a way to go before unlocking advanced professions.]
[If I remember correctly, the quests in this game are dynamic. Unlike other games where you can drag out completing a quest for a long time after accepting it, that recent plot clearly urged Excavation Princess to level up quickly. If she levels up too slowly, she might not get subsequent quests.]
[Suddenly being urged, will Lily be in trouble?]
[Looking at Lily's tone when talking to Excavation Princess before, it shouldn't be that serious.]
[Tone doesn't mean anything. Maybe Lily was just pretending to be relaxed because she didn't want us to worry. Don't forget Lily is still injured. I don't believe that injury has no effect on her at all.]
These words made a group of players anxious, regretting that they couldn't go to Lynn now, unable to help even if they wanted to.
They no longer cared about envying Patrick Star and others who were about to arrive at Lynn. Instead, they kept @Patrick Star and others on the forum, telling them to quickly raise their strength after arriving at Lynn and then confirm what trouble Lily had encountered.
Patrick Star and the others' expressions became solemn after receiving the message.
They were also anxious, but leveling up wasn't something that could be done just by saying it. They were completely clueless about Lynn. They only hoped they could unlock advanced professions before the deadline, thereby triggering new quests. Who knew if they would still have a chance to trigger quests related to Lily if this quest chain broke?
With an urgent mood, as soon as the car arrived at the Lynn station, Convert to My Lily sprang into action.
