The boss didn’t look good today, and I wondered who had touched him again.
The old employees have a secretive look and whisper in low voices.
Lu Yao can’t get into the circle and doesn’t bother to ask.
Near the end of the day, Sister Peng, who hadn’t been seen for a few days, came in a hurry. Judging from her face, she was not in a good mood.
She stayed in the inner office with her boss for a while, came out and started to clean up her desk.
Lu Yao muttered in his heart.
Is it hard to believe that Sister Peng quit?
Thinking that another person who could do something in the company had left, Lu Yao couldn’t help but feel sad.
With a bunch of worms and bugs left, how could they get the job done?
He asked tentatively, but got an unexpected answer.
“The company has been burgled, someone went through the company safe.” Sister Peng lowered her voice and said.
Lu Yao frowned: “It can’t be? The surveillance is on 24 hours a …… day.”
Sister Peng had a stern face, “Not only the safe, but also many people’s drawers, folders, and cabinets have traces of being turned over.”
“To be able to go through the company’s stuff without being detected by the surveillance and also silently, there’s only one possibility ……”
Sister Peng nailed it.
Lu Yao understood what she meant.
To be able to avoid surveillance and precisely rummage through the company’s various information and documents, the greatest possibility was that there was a mole.
However, Lu Yao had now stepped out of ordinary people’s thinking.
Using the props in the simulator could also do it.
Investigating and pursuing cases was the work of the police and the committee, Lu Yao abided by the duties of a junior hitman: I don’t want to make a mistake even if I don’t do anything.
……
Back home, it was god time.
Lu Yao sat in front of his computer, his mood much lighter.
He opened the box of fried tofu he bought on the road, a marinated chicken leg, and opened a bottle of ice cola.
This was today’s dinner.
On the screen, a few reminders caught Lu Yao’s attention.
[The Garlic Tribe invented astronomical navigation.]
[The Garlic Tribe has discovered a new continent.]
[The Garlic Tribe has surveyed the New World.]
The Garlic Tribe had already mastered astrology and navigation, and it was normal for them to develop further astronomical navigation.
With the birth of astronomical navigation, a world map was added to the right side of the game interface.
Although the map was made up of rough pixel dots, Lu Yao could tell at a glance the western continent in the centre, as well as the two large islands in the south of the sea.
Directly east of the world map, there was another piece of land slightly smaller than the Western Continent.
With the large map, it was much faster for Lu Yao to drag the mouse to switch locations.
The viewpoint instantly switched to the sky above the eastern continent.
Unlike the western continent’s forested and mountainous environment, the vast majority of the eastern continent was grasslands and mudflats. Several rivers meandered through the grasslands and eventually merged into the ocean.
On the grasslands was an animal that Lu Yao had his heart set on.
Horses!
Finally, there would be horses!
Apart from wild horses, there were also herds of bison, antelopes, wolves, lions, and so on, the grasslands were rich in animal species and numbers.
Lu Yao was about to order the little people to catch the horses when he suddenly noticed a group of savages.
This group of savages lived in a simple village surrounded by boulders. They were worshipping a white idol that was sitting on the ground, and the surrounding savages were worshipping it.
Divine players?
There were players in this continent?
Lu Yao examined the local environment.
The savage tribes were at a more primitive stage. The little people were still covering themselves with leaves and carrying spears cut from branches, they had bows and arrows but lived in hemispherical houses piled up with mud and thatch.
It’s worth noting that the savage tribes had three tribal advantages.
One was that they controlled the horse, and the savages had been able to hunt on horseback, coming and going as fast as they could.
Two, they had domesticated dogs.
The third was that they could burn pottery, mastering this important technology that Lu Yao had overlooked.
The disadvantages of the savage tribes were also numerous.
The area they cultivated was too small, there were only a few farmers, the number and types of crops they grew were few, and they were extremely dependent on meat.
Many of the savages had emoticons of vomiting floating above their heads, indicating that they were plagued by disease. The tribe lacks a medicine man as a profession, or perhaps there is something wrong with the water or food.
There are no longer any herbivores around the savage tribes, and they need to travel a long way to hunt. And those places were basically full of other hunters, no shortage of wolves and lions.
Luckily, they had bows and arrows, and the range advantage allowed the savages to drive away the other beasts as they continued to expand their territory.
However, the real top of the food chain in this grassland was not the lions, but a monster called [Flaming Chicken].
The level of the [Flaming Chicken] was between LV5~LV10. They were small in size, but covered with colourful and lush red feathers, and were extremely fast when running.
The Flamingos are fierce and aggressive, and any animal around them cannot look at them in the eye or they will be attacked by them.
When it gets angry, it will ignite fire all over its body, not only burning its enemies, but also setting the grassland and trees on fire, making it a grassland arsonist.
Lu Yao noticed that a group of wild people had set their sights on a Flaming Chicken. Armed with bows and arrows, they launched a long-range sneak attack on this dangerous monster.
As a result, the Fiery Flame Chicken met the arrows and charged, burning several wild people to the ground and being burnt alive by the flames on the grassland.
Lu Yao observed carefully for a while and realised that the savages didn’t fail every time.
Faced with Flaming Chickens around LV5, there were times when the wildlings managed to kill them. However, they also had to pay a heavy price, and there would always be hunters who were killed or seriously injured.
After slaying the fiery chicken, the wildlings would carry the creature back to their village, where the seer would sacrifice it to the idol. They called this player “Yangwu God”.
Lu Yao understood the situation.
He thought that the player had given orders to the savages to hunt the Flaming Chicken. Therefore, even if many people had to die each time and the success rate of the hunt was low, the wildlings would still try their best to attack this powerful monster.
Lu Yao rubbed his chin.
I can only say that you weren’t very lucky and happened to be matched in the same region as me.
The gap was all-encompassing.
With the help of Astronomical Navigation, Lu Yao was able to use the large map to easily lock down every location in this continent. He could observe every move of every villain here.
And both the villain and that player were oblivious.
There was also a huge gulf between the tribal civilisations on both sides.
This place is still in the Stone Age. The Garlic Tribe had already used copper and iron, casting armour and metal weapons, and even had rich combat experience and technical reserves.
Blockading the coast with oar-sailors alone would be enough to lock the wildlings out of this land.
But all of this was within the reach of manpower.
It could be fought, but it was not necessary.
Lu Yao repeated the simulation and deduction in his head, confirming that there were no obvious flaws in his strategy.
Then, he would strike.
He directly tapped [Lightning].
The first shot of lightning landed on top of the head of the Wildman Tribe’s Prophet.
Blue light fell, and the Prophet who was caught off guard was reduced to ashes in a flash. Once the Prophet died, the connection between the Wildman Tribe and the gods was directly severed.
The divine punishment that fell from the sky caused the surrounding savages to scatter in fear.
“The gods, the gods are angry!”
“Why?”
“The gods are not happy!”
“The fiery turkey is bad, the sacrifice is bad!”
“The Prophet has been executed, the Prophet is dead!”
Lu Yao’s hands didn’t stop, directly jacking 50 rounds of [Lightning] to bombard the idol in the centre of the village.
Amidst the continuous flashes of lightning, a white light barrier was revealed on the idol. However, the barrier only lasted for a second before it crumbled and disappeared.
The unprotected idol was blown to pieces by the lightning swarm and turned into a field of grey and white pieces.
A prompt appeared in the simulator.
[The faith of the Yangwu God has completely disappeared in the vicinity, and His followers will begin searching for a new god.]
Lu Yao was basically satisfied with the outcome of this blitzkrieg.
