The Game of Global Mining
Chapter 630 - 479: Jenny the Sleepwalker
Once again, Chun and Mina possessed the Black Cat, which sprinted using Shrinking Earth.
The mirror-image Aileen spoke up, "It's indeed different this time; my perception ability has improved significantly! I can see everything around the night market within a few hundred meters clearly!"
After all, it's the result of devouring a Mirror Demon from a small town along with the gains from consuming an Arctic Waymark!
Chun was pleased, "We will be much safer on this trip!"
Aileen chuckled, "Now I want to catch a few Shadow Demons to eat, to compensate for the loss of Shadow Demon power from the earlier battle, and to conceal myself a bit."
Chun was eager, "No problem, if we see any, we'll catch them on the fly!"
Aileen laughed, "Alright, I'll keep watch then..."
The journey was uneventful, and the Black Cat returned to the small building Moss had previously rented.
Then it suddenly found Moore lying rigidly on the first-floor bed, grinning as if even his dreams were filled with laughter.
Holy shit! Thinking back to the two Divine Artifact-level Soul Artifacts given to him, it's easy to guess what he might be doing now. But the problem is, young people need to hold their ground and not stray from the path!
Speaking of which, Moore still hasn't delivered the Bronze City list. Looks like it won't be happening anytime soon.
So Chun went up to the second floor to find Moss, who, even in the middle of the night, was still diligently studying with a vibrant spirit.
Tom greeted, "Meow!"
Moss was invigorated, "Ready to go?"
"Meow~~"
Moss didn't waste any words and opened the briefcase again. The Black Cat entered, and the case was closed as he left the room.
Chun still pondered on the previous issue; after midnight, there are few NPCs using the Teleportation Gate. Wouldn't Moss, going out late at night, be noticed?
But it's impossible to cover all bases. As an Imperial Spy, he must have a plausible identity. Going out at night to catch thieves is justifiable, right?
Right, there was already a plan. It's best to ask Zhou Qing first.
Chun texted Zhou Qing: "Director Zhou."
Zhou Qing replied, "Brother Chun, what's up?"
Chun asked, "Though there's no hurry, I still want to ask how the abstract activities of the night market in Gem City are going?"
Zhou Qing laughed, "It has increased to 50 people, and rumors are spreading!"
Chun was very relieved, "Then I am assured. How is President Zhou doing with everything now?" 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚
Zhou Qing laughed, "The Fishman God is so much fun, and Jiang's girl group medical team is under no pressure at all! By the way, how's my vinegar fish?"
Chun praised, "If I say I'll have another one tonight?"
Zhou Qing was delighted, "That would be Brother Chun's highest compliment, okay, dinner is set!"
Chun added his unique insight, "Put the wasabi in with the vinegar fish, it's all about that refreshing awakening…"
Zhou Qing laughed heartily, "Absolutely!"
...
Over ten minutes later, the case opened again, and the Black Cat and Chun returned to the rental room on the second floor of the Green Olive Tavern in Gem City.
Chun had actually long decided to arrange a new identity for Moss, but how to communicate? Last time Moss said he needed to prepare some things to communicate with the Black Cat, so it was a good opportunity to see.
Chun instructed the Black Cat, "I'll give Mr. Moss...300,000 Mining Coins, for him to play the role of an antique collector and interact with adventurers."
After all, Tifa's necklace bank card has a fund of 1 million for activities, last time he lent Captain Pulan 100,000 to start a business. Now, it's somewhat to reimburse Moss's Teleportation Array expenses.
Tom meowed once.
——System prompt: You instructed Tom to transfer 300,000 to Folmos. Activity funds decreased by 300,000.
Huh? You're just transferring money? You need to say what it's for!
Moss was astonished, "This truly is a… okay, I get it."
What did you get?
Forget it, players might be unreliable; unreliability encountering unreliability might just equal reliability.
Chun had to seize the time, "Tom, go find Jenny from the textile factory…"
"Meow!"
At that moment, Aileen spoke up, "There are two mirrors nearby, go around them!"
A mark instantly appeared on the map within a hundred meters, showing two light spots.
Chun was shocked, "Didn't the Black Cat leave the second floor here last time too, wasn't it seen by the mirrors?"
Aileen said, "Who would care about a cat? Besides, the cat can be invisible, it might not be noticed."
Though that may be true, it's best to avoid them whenever possible.
Chun was still troubled, "How to deal with these mirrors in the city?"
Actually, Chun had never figured out this problem, so he simply ran outside the city to a ring road and consumed a Mirror Demon, because there are many monsters outside, and mishaps aren't surprising. But in the city, it's troublesome. Besides, even if Moss cooperates with players as an antique dealer, if they manage to collect a Mirror Demon, how should it be managed?
Aileen said, "I'm already much stronger than any single Magic Mirror; I can fool it with just an Illusion Technique."
Huh? Is that possible? Then it's secure!
So, Tom took a detour using Shrinking Earth and arrived at the textile factory again. But Jenny was not asleep; she was still working in the manual workshop.
Chun was incredulous, "Mina, isn't she a high-level talent? How long does she work in a day?"
Mina was stunned, "She should be asleep! Could it be the legendary sleepwalking?"
Holy shit, sleepwalking while working? Chun was aghast, "But she's not even in pajamas, would she change clothes before sleepwalking?"
Mina was bewildered, "I don't know; it's my first time encountering sleepwalking."
Ah, this is the difficulty of being self-taught.
Chun asked, "Can you enter?"
Mina said, "Yes, it seems not much different from ordinary people after they fall asleep."
"Then hide well and quietly enter."
——System prompt: Warning! Led by Dragon Soul Nightmare Mina, you enter the "Sleepwalker Jenny's" dream realm.
Then the scene shifted, Chun found himself and Mina standing in place, outside the workshop door. The sound of the weaving machine still echoed from inside, and the surrounding factory buildings looked exactly the same, with the faint noise of the bustling city beyond the walls.
Chun couldn't believe it. Is this really her dream realm? How is it different from the real world?
Speaking of which, she is a Sleepwalker; last night when Vivian dreamt of me, she was also a "Sleepwalker," but Vivian was a phantom, like a projection, distinctly different. So, what about this Jenny?
Chun leaned forward to look through the window, and the screen immediately blurred, a powerful aura came rushing over!
Then a red light exploded——System prompt: Warning! If you alarm Jenny, you will face serious consequences.
Holy shit!
Chun hurriedly stepped back and looked at Mina, who had a terrified look and waved her hand to gesture Chun to step back.
To be honest, even when facing that powerful Naga Demon Skill Mage earlier, Mina wasn't this frightened. Could this Jenny be a hidden super expert?
Mina pulled Chun into the corner and quietly said, "Master, this is a very strong obsession! If she were deceased, she would become an extremely strong Evil Spirit!"
"So, she's just an ordinary mage, but an extremely powerful Evil Spirit?"
"Yes! But she isn't dead yet, so calling her an Evil Spirit isn't appropriate."
