The Abyssal Garden: No Room for the Idle

"Chasing celebrities?"

Jiang Zhi was taken aback, to tell the truth, he hadn't paid much attention to the Present World since arriving here.

A frown flitted across Bai Yilin's brow, "I saw they were also carrying holographic banners..."

"On them was written: Nancy, a very familiar name."

Bai Yilin suddenly paused.

"It seems I've seen this name on many advertising spaces on the streets before! Brother Long, do you know it?"

Long Xun nodded, "I know this name, not only does he possess the powerful abilities of Sequence 6, but he's also a superstar across several Boundary regions of Emberlane, with countless fans."

He looked around, "And... the other party is also a favorite of the Young Master Spirit King, the sole spokesperson for Everday Commerce."

At that moment,

a few people were waving holographic fireworks sticks: "Please support Lord Nancy, thank you, sorry to trouble you."

"What is this all about?" Jiang Zhi was confused.

The person grinned, "Lord Nancy is about to arrive here, naturally, we need to show support."

"And rest assured, all supporters will be rewarded with Spirit Coins by Nancy's fan club behind us!"

"Please!"

Bai Yilin and Long Xun dumbfoundedly accepted the support items they distributed.

"What kind of fan club is this? So hardcore? They even distribute Spirit Coins!" Jiang Zhi stared at the support items which included a hundred Spirit Coins, his eyes bulging.

The staff member hesitated, "They are probably the offspring of some extraordinary families... with several Sequence 5 or even higher entities behind them."

"However, you don't really need to worry, this won't affect the progression of the Pioneering Team, they are also here to compete for opportunities, every one of them possesses extremely powerful strength."

Put simply.

Chasing celebrities was a hobby, but they also had the fighting power to contest opportunities.

After the staff member gave some more instructions, he left to guide other newcomers.

Jiang Zhi muttered,

"These are other people's children, not only do they have background, money, but also possess great strength, even in such a place, they can still spare the time to chase celebrities, damn... envy can kill!"

Long Xun consoled him by patting his shoulder, "Don't be angry, haven't you joined The Hustlers Sect? The future is promising."

Jiang Zhi: "..."

Better not to mention it, it only made him angrier.

"Let's go." Bai Yilin, holding the support items, started moving, "It's said there's still about half an hour to go."

"Are you really going?" Jiang Zhi's eyes widened, "I wouldn't chase after a man for a hundred Spirit Coins! I'd rather give them back!"

Of course, if it were a female group, he could have shouted very loudly.

"We're not going to chase celebrities but... to gather information," Long Xun quietly said, "Do you really think those top forces that can make it this far would engage in celebrity chasing here?"

"In this Dark Zone on the brink of beginning, undertows are quietly turning, every force, every action, nothing is that simple," Long Xun dropped a meaningful remark and followed along.

"Is that so..." Jiang Zhi paused for a moment, "Brother Shandian, what do you think?"

Shandian lay on his shoulder, "I don't know, but when Lord Bai Qixing was cracking the chip data from Sirius, he seemed to have found some strange footage, and said something."

"What did he say?"

"It seems like it's a cage controlled by countless chains, whether it's from the outside or inside... at the moment of breaking through, it will completely tear apart everything on the surface."

At this moment,

in the top-level space of Everday Commerce,

a middle-aged man was sitting at a desk, dealing with thousands of holographic data streams, exuding an aura of authority, adorned with various signs of Prosthetic augmentations.

And then,

a holographic window appeared on the desk of the middle-aged man:

"Mr. Simon, Vice-President."

"Three Medium Constant Star Level forces have sent orders, wanting to buy Prosthetic Equipment sets of model number three in bulk at a low price."

Simon's brow slightly furrowed, "Their price is too low, don't respond for now, we can't give them the chance to pressure us."

"Understood, Mr. Simon, Vice-President."

The assistant's voice came from the inside, and as for why the title Vice-President had to be added, it was Simon's request, leading many to speculate who the real president of Everday Commerce was, but so far it remains a secret.

Afterward,

Simon received many messages from all sides, all from various interstellar forces' trades, conversations, and invitations.

And then,

a being with strong aura tore through space to arrive, possessing the mighty power of Sequence 6, a guard arranged for Simon by the Son of the Spirit King, An Xinghuo.

"Mr. Simon, the Young Master said for you to go ahead and he will withstand the pressure from all sides."

"Okay," Simon nodded, "Thank you, Jian Xing."

"Small matter, after all, it was Young Master's command."

After the Night City incident, An Xinghe, the Son of the Spirit King, was roped in by Su Qi, and then... with support and various strategic development, Everday Commerce forcibly squeezed into the top commerce companies.

Of course,

its current status was not yet stable, still coveted by many potent forces, after all, a force without much background or heritage, to have come this far without being devoured by the numerous forces.

Relied on the endorsement of the Son of the Spirit King, An Xinghuo, and the deterrence of the Spirit King's name.

Of course,

Simon knew this wasn't sustainable.

"Where are Mr. Nancy and Mr. Sigong?" As a guard, Jian Xing not only protected their safety, he also participated in some affairs and meetings.

"They should be arriving soon, Mr. Sigong brings with him the new generation of Equipment technology along with a large batch of products, as for Mr. Nancy..." Simon said softly, "He's expected to meet with fan clubs soon, to create some buzz."
