Chapter 174: Chapter 174
Logging onto the long-unvisited Interstellar Hunter Forum, Loren skillfully located the Security Bureau's account and began his daily provocation.
Within a Q& A post recommended on the forum's homepage, Loren clicked in as if he had caught a scent.
Sure enough, just as Loren expected, he found the Security Bureau's account with remarkable ease.
"Naive! What good would blocking me do?! What do you think my Fortune is for?!"
This was a post inquiring about the stance of the Land of the Gods.
"Can I ask you experts, the Gods and The Abyss have always been in opposition, and The Abyss has always represented 'evil', how about your parents? Sorry, typo. So, may I ask you experts, does the Land of the Gods symbolize 'justice'?"
The overly abstract way of asking caused countless idle Thrill-Seekers to gather below this question.
ExplosionIsArt: "Haven't seen this kind of questioning style in a long time, young man, you've got guts."
DMMeForNaughtyVids: "So the question is, the OP knows they made a typo and still won't edit it! Verdict: your problem is bigger than the Federation's!"
FederationJokeSpreader: "Then, he was arrested by Security Bureau agents, charged with making slanderous statements against the Federation."
AbyssJokeCollector: "The Superhuman argued, 'I didn't slander the Federation!!'"
FederationJokeSpreader: "The Security Bureau agent sneered coldly, 'Don't play dumb, I've been an agent for ten years, which place is more evil than The Abyss, don't I know?!'"
FederationSecurityBureauAlwaysHiring: "Don't believe them! Those two upstairs are pure slander!!"
FederationSecurityBureauAlwaysHiring: "Young man, do you believe in 'justice'? Come join the Security Bureau, I'll take you to see the angels of the Land of the Gods!!"
FederationSecurityBureauAlwaysHiring: "When the time comes, we can pluck off an angel's wings for you to cosplay, that's possible too~"
After browsing through this post and finding not a single serious answer, the corner of Loren's mouth involuntarily lifted, and he laughed out loud.
See! I told you the people on the forum are interesting!!
Then, Loren chose to blend in with them.
ALuckyPetKeeper: "Right, this is slander! Actually, the Security Bureau agents couldn't find that Superhuman at all!"
Next, Loren saw three somewhat familiar usernames.
I take my owner flying every day: "Hahahahaha......"
Annie Bell: "Hahahahahaha......"
A witch who keeps a dragon: "Hahaha......"
Simultaneously, in the bedroom of Room 105, the unique, awkward laughter belonging to a bird also rang out.
Loren turned his head to look at the other side of the large bed, his face darkening.
Stupid bird, your sense of humor is really low...
At this moment, Raven was lying flat on the large bed, its two claws pointing towards the lounge's ceiling, its small body shaking as it laughed, somewhat breathless.
His mood disrupted, Loren silently glanced at the usernames "A witch who keeps a dragon" and "Annie Bell" on the screen, then exited this post brimming with joy with a dark expression.
Stupid bird, you're quite close with these two who want to keep you, huh, appearing together again...
Feeling down, waiting online, what to do when the pet you raised is too close with others...
"Huh, Master, why do you suddenly look unhappy?"
Raven's voice came from the side as it sat up, leaning its small head sideways against the pillow.
Loren answered seemingly uneventfully, but in reality, he silently memorized those two usernames.
Don't let me run into you two, I'll gift each of you a dose of 'Misfortune'!!
Stupid bird, it's MINE!!
After adding this matter to his future to-do list, Loren shook his head, cleared the somewhat messy thoughts from his mind, opened the input box on the post creation page, and posted a new thread.
"Does anyone know about the newly appeared 'Digital Currency Bank' in the underground black market lately? Seems like there's a massive force behind it, curious."
After typing the question, Loren silently stacked several layers of Fortune on himself, not asking Raven to act on his behalf.
Stupid bird! I'll do it myself! Angry!
Numerous replies quickly appeared in the post Loren made.
Clearly, Loren wasn't the only one curious about this newly opened digital currency bank...
Shadow Brotherhood: "We're investigating too, this bank just popped up out of nowhere."
RunningACultIsTooHard: "Seconded, we're also investigating. The other party's methods are sophisticated, we haven't found anything so far, came to the forum to see, hoping some expert can give us a lead."
WhenWillOurCultOrganizationFinallyStandUp: "Us too, all we found were some irrelevant things, the more we investigate, the more scared we get."
IAmNotACultReally: "Help! We're all cult organizations, why are you guys grinding so hard? We gave up automatically after a few days of investigating."
IsMoonBigMoonAh: "I hacked into the digital currency bank's backend system, it's remarkably clean, the other party didn't leave a single useful trace. This is too exaggerated, it wasn't this exaggerated when I infiltrated the Security Bureau's system!!"
CallItTheHolyChurchNotTheDemonChurch: "The one two floors above! Say it again! I'm not in a cult!! But it is indeed a bit exaggerated, a digital currency bank opened in the underground black market of our Eastern Star Domain too."
JusticePartyIsTheFederationsOnlyParty: "Huh? So you guys too? We investigated for 6 days, used all our methods, our intelligence agents and undercovers all went missing during the investigation process."
EmpireMilitaryAlwaysHiring: "Wait, that powerful? None of you managed to find out the background of this digital currency bank? Hold on, I'll go investigate right now."
Lich Council: "Demigod-level prophecy magic, 6 million Spirit Stones per session, welcome to DM, but no guarantee of an answer."
Sculptors' Mutual Aid Association: "Get lost with your ads, you're all a bunch of guys who can barely manage to recruit people, can't even afford the Spirit Stones for prophecy magic!"
RunningACultIsTooHard: "@Sculptors' Mutual Aid Association. What nonsense are you spouting??? I & @ your... #%& * mother?!?!"
It was clear this person was cursing very dirtily, some words were automatically filtered by the forum program.
From this point on, all subsequent replies started to go off-topic.
Instead, the daily routine of the Interstellar Hunter Forum began: a chaotic war of words between various Superhuman organizations started.
Loren delightedly watched the verbal battle for half an hour, silently taking note of the various Superhuman organizations' dark histories.
As everyone knows, on the Interstellar Hunter Forum, even the most aggressive vocabulary is far less damaging than mocking revelations of the other party's dark history.
The sheer spectacle of this verbal battle was such that even Loren, the one who asked the question, lost sight of his original purpose for posting amidst this war of words that encompassed nearly half the underground black market forces.
He became completely immersed, unable to extricate himself, in the dark histories of various factions.
"That Lich Council's esteemed Speaker was once tricked out of Spirit Stones by a Duke of Devils from The Abyss, and accidentally signed a three-hundred-year indenture contract."
"The Empire's military almost recruited a Federation councilor when recruiting undercover agents, causing the Empire's intelligence network within the Federation to shrink drastically."
"The people from the Sculptors' Mutual Aid Association were once blockaded at their door by the Nature Sect, and their esteemed Chief was also forced to issue a public apology to the Nature Sect."
"The people from the Shadow Brotherhood were also toyed with by the 'God of Deception' from the Land of the Gods; they went to assassinate a Demigod-level powerhouse for free, suffered heavy losses, and haven't recovered to this day."
"During an organizational gathering, the Star Traveler Society had a Star Realm alien species sneak in, nearly turning the solemn group activity into a cringe-inducing orgy."
Even Loren, after reading these dark histories, could only say one thing:
