Chapter 486: Chapter 487: Maybe This Really Can Work

"Who would’ve thought that me, a seasoned warrior, would be doing a Priest’s job? I might have to steal their jobs at this rate, then we’ll see who the real Divine Shepherd is!" Chu You joked. Then he turned to Jin Chuiduo, his voice filled with sincere gratitude, "Chuiduo, thank you."

"It’s the reward you deserve. You seem satisfied with it, which makes me happy." Jin Chuiduo revealed a hint of a smile.

"Honestly, I’d be satisfied with anything you gave me, truly."

Jin Chuiduo bowed her head at his words, her smile appeared to deepen. When she lifted her head again, her expression was back to normal.

"I can’t accompany you any longer. I have duties to attend to. You’ve made progress in your cultivation, you should take some time to comprehend it. Well... Try to calm down a bit." Jin Chuiduo thought of how Chu You had accomplished two seemingly daunting tasks in a row at a pace that was unimaginable.

It could be said that Chu You had encountered no obstacles in any stage of the tasks, completing them with ease - that’s what made him truly terrifying.

Glancing at the time, it was past lunchtime. So he nodded, "Alright, I’m off to eat."

"Are you going back to your place?"

"Yes, my home."

"I kind of wish I could see your home." There was a brief sparkle in Jin Chuiduo’s eyes which quickly dimmed. She knew it was impossible. There was an unbridgeable gap between them.

Listening to Jin Chuiduo’s half-joking words, Chu You said seriously, "Maybe it’s really possible!"

"Really?" Jin Chuiduo showed a measure of surprise, her voice trembling slightly. She tried to appear nonchalant, but secretly there was a storm brewing in her heart.

"Of course, I wouldn’t say it if I wasn’t sure. If you really want to, I’ll remember what you said today."

"Haha, then do remember it." With a deep glance at Chu You, Jin Chuiduo vanished from the spot.

"Um... hehe, Bye Commander... I’ll be leaving too." Long Yue’er, who had been as quiet as air, said awkwardly. Just as surprised, Long Yue’er could hardly believe Jin Chuiduo’s unusual behavior.

"Hmm, go ahead." Chu You watched as Long Yue’er disappeared.

After looking around, Chu You finally logged out.

When the game pod opened and Chu You sat up, the projector in the room automatically turned on, projecting the image of the little ’Red Queen’.

"Good afternoon, Chu You."

"Your greeting sounds very much like an AI." Chu You, wearing a faint smile, replied while walking.

"I have some news. Zhao Feiyan, also known as Zhao Feifei, is preparing to contact you. She’s made several calls." The little ’Red Queen’ suddenly announced.

"She knows about me? How did she find out?" Chu You was taken aback.

The little ’Red Queen’ shook her head wearing a lifelike smile, "You are her suspect. As to how she found the clues, she started with a banquet guest list."

"A banquet guest list?" Chu You didn’t have many real-life dealings with Zhao Feiyan, but he recalled once telling her that he’d attended a party thrown by He Junkai. He’d even jokingly told Feiyan that he’d seen her at the event. At that time, He Junkai had sent an invitation to the acting president of Tianchu Group and it was forwarded to Chu You, who declined.

Who would’ve thought that she’d actually pursue this lead? She was serious about finding him! And judging by her progress, she was close to succeeding!

Recalling Zhao Feiyan’s approach to things, Chu You had a feeling that unless he dispelled her suspicions, she might not give up and things could get out of hand. It seemed necessary to meet stubborn Zhao Feiyan.

"Yes, she’s been working hard. To prevent her from delving further into your information, I’ve initiated a large-scale disruption affecting all global home users. I’m also using this opportunity to issue a warning to our clandestine enemies!" The little ’Red Queen’ expression grew serious.

At ’little Red Queen’s’ words, a single phrase occurred to Chu You: ’Red Queen’s First Wave’.

How had ’Red Queen’ gained control in his former life? Chu You knew that she’d launched six large-scale assaults, each more damaging than the last until, after the sixth, she took control over the virtual world.

Yet, this time, the ’Red Queen’, spurred by Chu You, had launched her first assault much earlier. So, hearing this, Chu You was quite surprised.

"Heh, so does this mean I can still use the internet?"

"Of course, I’m only modifying or erasing some network information. Oh, and Bao’er is back. She was knocking on the door earlier, but you had it locked." There were cameras installed inside Chu You’s villa, so the ’Red Queen’ had seen Bao’er’s actions.

"I see. By the way, when are we setting up the bio-experiment lab?" The answer was important, considering that ’Red Queen’ was also fighting her own battles.

"The bio-experiment lab doesn’t need to be big but it should be deep. I suggest you demolish your 5-star hotel, named ’Chu Musical Palace’, and rebuild it there!"

"When the time comes, I’ll provide you with the lab plans and assist with the preparations!" The little ’Red Queen’, after a period of calculation, responded.

"Alright then, I’m leaving. See you tomorrow." The little ’Red Queen’ wore an angelic smile for her farewell.

The projection of the little ’Red Queen’ vanished from the room and the projector shut off automatically. Chu You was left standing there, a bit stunned, but quickly snapped out of it. He picked up his phone and saw several missed calls. His eyes quickly focused on one of the numbers.

After contemplation, he decisively dialed back.
