"Gear?"
"Yes. The name is quite strange, right? But I feel like I won't be able to find a more appropriate description in a short amount of time." Xie Junping was like a hard-working salesman, but the results were mediocre.
Luo Nan pressed his forehead lightly. He had already formed a habit of doing similar actions during this period of time, and it made his concentration less focused.
The two turned around the natural forest wall barrier as they spoke. Soon, they saw the front of the building.
It was just like the impression they had just gotten. The outer wall of the building was a rusty red. It didn't look like any color of the surrounding natural environment. Instead, it looked like rusty metal with a bit of paint. The main body of the building was covered by the long vines and weeds of the jungle. The light in the jungle was gradually dimming, making it even harder to see the overall layout of the building.
Xie Junping was a bit worried that this kind of exterior would give Luo Nan a bad impression. He rushed to add, "Less renovations have been done in the past two years. The environment is a bit messy, but the inside will definitely give you a pleasant surprise."
Luo Nan didn't say anything. He just wanted to see what Xie Junping was up to.
The two followed the small path overgrown with weeds and turned to the main entrance of the building. This place should have been a small plaza in the past, but it had already been taken over by the jungle due to the lack of people taking care of it. If the main entrance wasn't tightly shut, the long vines of the wetlands would have extended into the main hall.
Right now, the entire building was tightly surrounded by the jungle. The small plaza was the best location in the vicinity, but it was still hard to see the entire building.
Only now did Luo Nan realize, "There's no one here?"
"There was one last semester, but now it's just an empty shell."
Xie Junping used his wristband to connect to the AI's authority. The metal main entrance of the building immediately lifted up, and the hall space inside automatically lit up.
Xie Junping led Luo Nan through the door and explained to him at the same time, "This place currently belongs to the Order Club. It used to be a very active old club. I've even heard that it was established before the school was founded. During its golden age, it attracted the sponsorship of over a dozen of the world's top five hundred rich people. It was extremely awesome. But there were too many rich people. It was troublesome. Especially after the first few old members graduated. The younger generation relied on their respective rich people and fought to their heart's content. The club was originally a good club, but it was forcefully turned into an asura field. Hatred was tied into a dead knot. In '90 and' 93, two major incidents occurred consecutively, and the nature of the incidents was very bad. The school banned the recruitment of new members, and the club collapsed in an instant. "
At this moment, the two of them walked into the empty hall. The square layout could not be seen here. The spiral staircase, the vertical elevator, and the circular corridor divided the hall, but there was also a hint that it extended into a wider space.
Xie Junping shrugged. "The main structure of this building is the circle. That is probably why it is called 'gear'. It was said that there were fifteen main rooms, halls, and a large courtyard that connected all the floors. They were all round, insanely round. You might feel a little dizzy at first, but you'll get used to it. "
Luo Nan didn't feel any discomfort. On the contrary, he was a bit curious.
Xie Junping continued to introduce, "The club has indeed reached its end in this generation. Actually, the qualifications to recruit new members were going to be restored this semester. But those idiots didn't court death. Last semester, a financial problem occurred. All of the rich people withdrew from the club, and the flow of funds was completely cut off. The old members left the club one by one. The few that didn't leave were all related to the case. They are still under investigation. Once their crimes are confirmed, the club will automatically disband. "
Xie Junping sighed hypocritically. "The club hasn't even disbanded yet, and there are already people fighting to the death outside."
Luo Nan was a bit surprised. "This place is very popular?"
"Of course! The club in the school has been eyeing the north bank for a long time, especially 'gear'. It occupies half a hectare. It is already one of the best among the clubs and research institutes. It was the most eye-catching building on the north bank back in the day. Over the years, those rich people have added quite a few things to it. More importantly, this is the only location on the north bank that can be dug deep. Of all the research institutes and club buildings on the north bank, this is the only place that has enough underground space. In this aspect alone, there was no one that could compare! Those people are throwing money at each other right now. They're just short of ripping each other apart … … "
Xie Junping's spittle flew everywhere as he spoke. The problem was that Luo Nan was completely indifferent to this sort of gossip. His face was stupefied. Xie Junping couldn't help but feel a strong sense of defeat, as if he was flirting with a blind person. He could only take the initiative to give a hint.
"Junior Nan, don't you want to know who will be taking over in the end?"
Luo Nan shot him a glance. "The results haven't come out yet, right?"
"There are only two left. The Construction Society and the Mystic Arts Research Society will take turns bidding. Let's see who can suppress the other. The results will come out in the next two days … … I feel that the Mystic Arts Research Society has a much higher chance!"
"The Mystic Arts Research Society?" Luo Nan naturally paid more attention when he heard that it was the super club that he had misunderstood.
Xie Junping's face revealed a strange smile. "The Mystic Arts Research Society is going all out for the sake of obtaining this place. They have already promised to completely take over all the debts and personnel of the Order Club … … Hehe. They don't even think about it. Even if everything goes smoothly, it will be next semester before they finish the process. But if no one takes care of this damned place, it will soon become ruins. When the time comes, it may not be worth the price. Junior Nan, don't you agree? "
What kind of logic was this … …
Luo Nan swept his gaze across the large hall. He confirmed that there was certainly an automatic cleaning system here. Perhaps there were even intelligent machines. There was practically no dust floating in the area that he could see. With this degree of maintenance, let alone half a year, there wouldn't be any unforeseen changes even if another ten years passed.
But Xie Junping's words were completely based on another objective.
Luo Nan roughly understood.
Xie Junping's attitude was already completely clear when he spoke to this point. "Junior Nan, you see. If you want to protect the assets of the club to the greatest degree, then you need someone to maintain this building and maintain basic operations. But the resources and connections of the Order Club are of the past. Aside from a pile of debt, there is nothing else. If you want to do this, then you need to spend the funds of the Student Council. If you calculate it down to a minimum of a hundred thousand a year. This is all a deficit. "
"If there is a person who is willing to enter this already declining club at this time and spend his precious private time to carry out maintenance work for free. Moreover, he doesn't have any club activities to increase his connections. Oh my! That's a huge sacrifice! Junior Nan, this kind of person is hard to find. Your big brother has been worried about this matter for the past few days to the point that my hair has turned white. You see, can you help me solve this problem … … "
Luo Nan looked at Xie Junping's performance and was speechless for a time. But he was completely clear about Xie Junping's intentions … … This was probably a roundabout way to save the country.
According to Xie Junping's plan, Luo Nan needed to first join the Order Club, which was already on the verge of collapse, and become an official member. Then he would endure for half a semester. Then the club would merge and he would become an unshakable 'extra'. He would enter the Mystic Arts Research Society … … This was what Xie Junping had already promised.
This path looked quite good. Of course, it required a high level cadre of the Student Council like Xie Junping to take action. Only then could a club on the verge of collapse be able to go through the entire process and forcefully stuff a new student in.
However, the Mystic Arts Research Society was backed by a large financial backer. It was also a circle of rich second generations. Would they really acknowledge Xie Junping's crude shoehorning?
At least right now, Xie Junping was very confident. He chuckled as he pushed Luo Nan into the elevator:
"Relax relax. I'm very familiar with that side. According to the people in the inner circle, they're really sparing no expense in this merger. I've already given them a heads up before. One or two people isn't much … … Junior Nan, I'm not being unreasonable. If it weren't for yesterday's confusion, causing you to miss your exams, why would we need to go around in circles? This damned place hasn't had a good time ever since Yan Hong's reputation was ruined and the research team was disbanded. They say that we're taking advantage of them. I'd even say that we're committing a crime! "
A certain name entered Luo Nan's ears and he stopped in his tracks. He suddenly turned his head: "Which one are you talking about?"
