Global Game: I Can Choose Instance Rewards-Chapter 552 - 375: Disguise, Deception, and Coordination

At this moment, the three indigenous BOSS-level figures looked at the big screen in front of them, with a few expressions of confusion on their faces.

"Zhong Wei, has this kind of building always been in the Shadow Desert?"

Among them, a silver-haired, hunched old man looked at the young man in glasses wearing a white coat and asked, his aged voice full of doubt.

"Most likely a new appearance."

The young man in glasses wearing a white coat thought for a moment before answering, then added:

"According to previous satellite scans, there was no such building in this area at all... but we can’t rule out the possibility that it was hidden by the foreign invaders using some means."

The silver-haired old man nodded in agreement with his assessment and said again:

"The origins and methods of the invaders have always been inscrutable to us. Now that we have discovered this desert building gathering more than ten invaders in a short time, and seemingly invaders appearing from within, it indicates that it is likely a base for the invaders... We must take it down as it will greatly benefit our research."

As soon as his words fell, the white middle-aged man with a classic aquiline nose moved his gaze from the big screen to the old man and said:

"Old man, first let your mecha team go to investigate the situation. Our psionic forces are not suited to crossing the Shadow Desert."

He said it matter-of-factly, wanting the silver-haired old man to send his people first, but the old man was not impressed and immediately shook his head in response:

"Silver Gray, I remember you have quite a few vehicles and flying devices. It’s not a problem for your guys to use them to enter the desert, so don’t be thinking about using my few people."

The conversation between the two showed signs of turning into a debate, but the young man in glasses wearing a white coat was indifferent, soon dismissively stating that he would send people there and was even planning to go in person.

"Haha, no need to argue, as per usual rules, whoever captures the loot keeps it. Since you both seem reluctant, I will send my people first. You can focus on other areas, and I believe part of the invaders who appeared this time are hiding elsewhere..."

He finished speaking and turned away, leaving the spacious room equipped with the huge screen without hesitation.

After he left, the remaining silver-haired old man and the aquiline-nosed middle-aged white man fell into a short silence, continuing to watch the screen. After almost half a minute, the middle-aged white man called Silver Gray was the first to speak, his tone carrying a hint of sarcasm.

"Old man, since Zhong Wei took the position after eliminating the blind man, he has further disregarded us as seasoned predecessors... In fact, I don’t care much about such matters, but don’t you think at your age, you ought to curb this arrogant young man’s attitude a bit? Just give the word, and I have a way to make him understand who the real leader of the Life Line is..."

"Haha... It seems like, Silver Gray, you have your eyes on Zhong Wei’s possessions again... Tell me what method you have, and I will see if it’s reliable..."

The silver-haired old man laughed and looked towards the man as he answered, the wrinkles on his face gathering like tree bark lines.

The two principal figures of the Life Line Organization then began a confidential discussion, seemingly planning to take some action against the recently departed indigenous youth, though such matters remain uncertain until the last moment.

The scene shifts back to the depths of the desert, where outside the black tower placed by Wang Zhifan, there were few people left. Most of the players who arrived here entered the black tower in batches to explore this hiding place for the coming month. A few, like the white Mage William and two others, gathered outside the tower, discussing their next moves.

"David, that Xia Country gunman who killed the Black Ghost also entered this tower, ahead of us. If there’s a chance, I hope we can join forces to take him down and avenge the Black Ghost."

The speaker was William, who deliberately spoke to his summoner companion at the edge of the safe area outside the tower and cast a Sound Insulation Spell to prevent any eavesdropping.

"He’s already in the tower, do we even have the chance to kill him? We can’t even find him..."

The white man with the profession of swarm summoner immediately questioned, thinking such matters were unsuitable at this time and place.

"There is a way."

The slender Mage William immediately gave a mysterious smile.

"What I just told those people about entering the tower in batches actually being different spaces is not entirely accurate."

He began to explain the more detailed situation he knew.

"I’ve seen this type of mechanism in many dungeons before. As long as you climb the tower enough times inside, there’s hope to meet other players. It’s just that the probability and who you meet are uncertain... But I have a more foolproof method, which is disguise."

"Disguise?"

The summoner companion was instantly puzzled upon hearing it, and so was the female warrior beside them.

"Yes, disguise. Using disguise to deceive this tower, thereby entering others’ spaces. I’ve done this kind of thing several times in a dungeon before, relying on this artifact."

As he spoke, he took out a paper card-like item from his trousers pocket to show the two, with what seemed like a vague humanoid figure drawn on the card.

"I obtained this rare artifact called ’One Face Many’ from the Card Realm dungeon. It’s not suited for direct combat, but it’s very effective for altering one’s presence to deceive certain environmental detection systems. For example, I once used it to enter a royal magic chamber inside a dungeon..."
