After storing the Platinum Disc into the Spatial Ring, Jiang Fei and Sylphy began their journey back home.
When Jiang Fei and Sylphy returned to Master Bayi's manor, everything was as usual. The players were still indulging in the luxurious life that Master Bayi had provided. They did not know that the Celestial Artifact that they were looking for had already been taken by Jiang Fei.
"How did it go, husband?" Bella and the others immediately surrounded Jiang Fei when they saw him.
"It was a worthwhile trip!" The corners of Jiang Fei's mouth could not help but curl up into a proud smile. Then, he briefly explained his schedule last night to the girls.
"Now that we have the Celestial Artifact, what should we do next?" Hua Mulan asked.
"Well, although we have the Celestial Artifact, we still don't know where the players will meet up. So, for the time being, it's better for us to bide our time!" Jiang Fei said.
"But I heard from the servant that Master Bayi is very interested in the business you mentioned. He has already begun to recruit a large number of workers. If we delay too long, when he has enough people, we will be exposed!" Nina reminded.
"Okay, I understand. However, the 'players' are almost ready. In two or three days, they will connect to the tunnel we dug previously. When that time comes, they will definitely find out that the Celestial Artifact has been stolen. At that time, these 'players' will definitely rush to meet up with their companions. When that time comes, we can follow them. If Master Bayi has gathered enough people before that, we will first find an excuse to delay them. If not, then we will kill him!" Jiang Fei said after thinking for a while.
"Well, it seems like that's the only way for now!" Nina nodded. Jiang Fei's plan was indeed more reliable.
After making up their minds, Jiang Fei and the others began to rest in Master Bayi's manor. They were ready to adjust their state to the best so that they could face more difficult challenges.
Driven by profits, Master Bayi could be said to have been working very hard for the past few days. The old man had almost never stopped looking for labor. With his hard work, he quickly gathered enough people. On the second day after Jiang Fei and the others obtained the Celestial Artifact, the old man came to Jiang Fei and the others and indicated that they could start stealing psionic crystals.
In the face of Lord Bayi's request, Jiang Fei casually made up an excuse and refused for three days. Although Lord Bayi was anxious, he did not dare to show it in front of Jiang Fei and the other desperadoes. In the end, he could only suppress his anxiety and wait for Jiang Fei and the others to leave.
At midnight on the second day after they obtained the Celestial Artifact, the "players" left the manor for a few hours before they hurriedly returned. Jiang Fei could not help but be overjoyed when he discovered this phenomenon through the identification device.
"Everyone, pack up. It's time for work!" Jiang Fei called out to the girls around him. These players had returned in such a hurry. Needless to say, they must have discovered that the Celestial Artifact had been stolen.
"Sylvie, come with me to find out what's going on. The rest of you pack up, we're leaving!" Jiang Fei instructed the girls, then left the villa with Sylphy and the others.
After putting on the Stealth equipment, Jiang Fei and Sylphy quietly approached the players' residence. Previously, Jiang Fei and Sylphy did not dare to get too close, for fear of being discovered. But now, because the players had lost the Celestial Artifact, they were all anxious at this time, so their guard was down.
"F * ck! Who the hell stole the Celestial Artifact before us?! "
"D * mn it, are these NPCs idiots? Although the Celestial Artifact's energy waves are obvious, it's useless to them. Why would they steal it?! "
"Our digging must have alarmed these local NPCs, causing them to think that it's some kind of treasure!"
"What do we do next?"
"Let's talk to Eammon and the others first. After all, we're working for him. Now that there's a problem, we have to let the boss know."
"Alright!"
…
As soon as Jiang Fei and Sylphy approached the players' residence, they heard the voices of two players talking.
"Husband, how many people are there in here?" Sylphy asked through her Mind Power.
"A total of nine people. Other than the eight guys who go out at night to supervise the work, there's one more person. This person seems to have never left." Jiang Fei used the identification device to check the number of "players".
"That guy should be the leader of this group, right?" Sylphy guessed.
"It's possible." Jiang Fei nodded. Then, he heard the voices of the "players" talking again.
…
"Eammon sent back a message."
"What did he say?"
"What else can he say? He scolded us. He said that we took so much money and still messed up the job. Now, he wants us to go find the Celestial Artifact, or he'll teach us a lesson! "
"F * ck! I knew it! These rich second generations are hard to please! "
…
Hearing the curses of these "players", Jiang Fei laughed in his heart. These "players" in front of him were undoubtedly the so-called "professional players". They relied on playing games to earn money. However, this game had fallen into Jiang Fei's hands.
As for these professional players, in their world, they were usually ordinary people. Faced with Eammon's threat, they really did not dare to ignore it. This was because this kind of threat was not only limited to the game!
"Are you guys done arguing?" Right then, the little red dot that had not moved all this time finally moved. However, the voice that reached Jiang Fei's ears was a pleasant female voice.
"Ilse, you finally can't sit still anymore? It's rare to see you so anxious! "One of the" male players "said in a strange tone.
"Cut the crap. You guys have been running amok here for the past few days. I can't be bothered to care about you guys. However, if you fail the mission and don't get my bounty, don't even think about it!" Ilse said coldly.
"Big sister, we didn't want to do this either. Who knew that these NPCs had nothing better to do and stole our Celestial Artifact!" Seeing that Ilse was enraged, the "male players" immediately softened. It seemed that Ilse had some tricks up her sleeve.
"Alright, instead of arguing here, you guys should think of a way to find the Celestial Artifact!" Ilse said.
"What else can we do? We don't even know who stole it! "The" male players "were at a loss.
"What a bunch of trash! You guys can't do anything right! It's my bad luck to be in the same team as you guys! " Ilse snorted coldly, then ordered these guys, "You guys go find that old guy and see which forces are nearby. Then, get that old guy to help you guys get in touch and find out who stole our Celestial Artifact!"
"Alright! Alright! I'll go right now! " One of the "male players" did not wait for Ilse to finish speaking and ran all the way to find Master Bayi. It was unclear if he was trying to please Ilse or if he was in a hurry to find the Celestial Artifact.
