"Sharpening a gun in the face of battle...are you trying to usurp the throne?" Xie Junping couldn't help but complained and left a message in the group, breaking the silence for several minutes.
Zhang Yingying's condition seemed to be recovering, so she rolled her eyes at first: "How can he have such leisure?"
"Maybe it's Armageddon." Zhugan thought of a possibility, "I think it's to prepare for going to Harbin. Although the trip has been postponed again and again, we will go there sooner or later."
Octopus, who was not present at the scene, was very interested in this topic: "That kind of chaotic devil's cave is completely incomparable with Xia Cheng, okay? He usurped the position of President Ouyang, maybe President Xiaoxiao will give it to him.
Over there, are you going to have a fight with Apollyon first, destroy the city of Haden into ruins and then rebuild it?"
"Hey, it sounds weird!"
The plot in the consciousness space is of course very touching. But when she returns to reality, Wen Huilan, who is given a clear request, smiles like a flower, and her mentality is obviously more cautious:
"My words are nothing more than data analysis of some accounts. Generally speaking, everyone has not been offended before and has been quite tolerant, but I have no shame to make any suggestions. Be careful..."
"That's what you said. You 'Hui Xing' just saw a decline in the local output on the account, so you just laid the line to Xiacheng. Such a decision would be hasty. I don't think it will - there should be 1234 others.
The reason is reasonable.”
Ronan held down an armor module that was about to be put on his arm, and commanded the transport robot to take it back to the workshop to do some work: "Even if you do make hasty decisions and come here to spread money in a hurry, it doesn't matter. Play on the spot.
Just say two more, just treat it as a proposition composition. I can't tell whether the previous ones are your thoughts or Gao Wenfu's meaning...
"You can express yourself freely now. It makes sense and touches my point of interest. Maybe it will save me a lot of trouble later."
"..."
This isn't even a requirement, it's an order.
There was no way Wen Huilan could make any more excuses. She lowered her eyes and thought for a moment, then smiled and said, "Well, if you don't mind, Professor Luo, I will use two people from your branch to give examples and share my views on some things.
"
"Two people? Do I know them?"
"I know you."
"Which two?"
Wen Huilan looked directly at Ronan, and her smile became brighter and more touching: "Professor Luo, please forgive me for being a little pretentious and nagging some more background."
"……Can."
So Wen Huilan began a new round of discussion, and this time, she seemed to pay more attention to the communication and interaction with Ronan:
"I would like to ask one more question, have you paid attention to the data changes of the registered ability users resident in Xia City?"
Ronan was very cooperative: "No."
"I have seen some. Since Xiacheng is the world's leading level in terms of training, protection, subsidies, and expedition logistics support for capable people, the number of new registrations every year is also among the best, and the total number of registered personnel remains at 1,000.
With more than one name, a group is prosperous.
"But if you analyze it more deeply, you can see that before December last year, to be precise, before your 'Blood Ring Fortress' was born, there was already a substantial outflow of senior ability users above the awakened level.
"
"Substantial outflow means that talent cannot be retained?" Ronan turned his attention to the bamboo pole. Regarding this kind of data, he should be an expert among experts.
Zhugan touched his chin: "The concept of substantial leakage is actually controversial. It refers to the situation where the membership remains in a certain city but does not live in the place of membership for a long time - the problem is that everyone is capable, and registration
My profession is also that of an explorer. Wandering in the wilderness is part of my job. It’s normal to work outside for seven or eight months a year.”
Wen Huilan shook her head: "Mr. Zhugan, I calculated it according to the strictest 'three-year standard'. From November 1993 to November 1996, within the 36-month period, there were awakened people and above in Xia City, including D level
Among the 'weakly awakened' people, there are only 827 people who have lived in Xiacheng for more than 6 months, which is a decrease of nearly 100 people from the previous round of statistics;
"As for Class B and above, the situation is not optimistic. Your branch did not include Professor Luo, Vice President He Yueyin and Mr. Zhugan yourself at that time. During the statistical period, there were only 14 relevant registered personnel.
"Leave aside the jokes about President Ouyang, His Majesty Emperor Wu, and the Blood Flame Order... Oh, this should be three."
Everyone present knows this joke: the registration of the Blood Flame Order’s branch in Xia City is indeed a bit of a joke.
But no matter what, Mrs. Halder, Meng Chong, and the dead Morun, these three B-level ability users were indeed included in the registered personnel back then - and now they are of course "outflows".
Wen Huilan really grasped the relevant figures and situations at her fingertips, showing her strong intelligence and memory abilities, and her tone became more and more certain: "Of the remaining 9 people, I can say with certainty that 4 have been substantially leaked.
personnel."
"How can there be so many!" Paper Cut shouted.
"Sometimes, impressions can be wrong."
Wen Huilan pursed her lips and smiled - it must be said that she is really a master of age confusion, and is very good at taking advantage of this. When she smiles, the deep and clear smile lines on the left corner of her lips calmly carry the accumulation of time and experience, and seem to be able to cope with everything
of doubt.
At the scene, Zhang Yingying suddenly let out a very low sigh.
Wen Huilan still had time to glance over at her, and then faced Ronan with such a smile: "In the archival sense, Professor Luo is a standard new employee. He only registered in the branch at the end of September last year. There should be no relevant information before.
As for the concept, it would be most appropriate for you to verify it.”
Ronan also laughed: "What to verify?"
"I can name at least two B-level registrants in your branch who you have no memory of, or whose names you have only heard of but never seen in person. They are already extremely inactive in Xia City, and you should have never interacted with them...
"
Wen Huilan immediately named the two names, but Ronan really had no impression of them.
Xie Junping tried to help with the paper-cutting: "You said 4 just now, but this is only 2..."
"There is another one, it should be the Horned Demon." Zhugan added with a frown.
This guy just contributed the base material for Ronan's one-way portal last month, and the way he died really gives people nightmares - before that, he had also left Xia City for a long time.
"This is a special case." Paper Cut scratched his head, "He offended His Majesty the Emperor Wu..."
"It should be a typical example." Wen Huilan used a very cute tone of voice to dispel the discussion atmosphere filled with too much desire to win and lose. "This is exactly the example I want to mention, but I will talk about it later.
.”
The paper-cut suffocated, and Fang said: "Is there another one?"
"You may be more familiar with that person." Wen Huilan directly named him, "It's Mr. Baoyan."
"Aha?"
Paper-cut thought to himself that this is nonsense. Who doesn't know that Baoyan and Zongji, both known as giant arms, are the only three B-level physical flanking forces in the branch. Even if he enters B-level, it is quite beyond common sense.
It is somewhat controversial to push forward the physical strength, but there is absolutely nothing to say in terms of stance.
Said he leaked...eh?
Paper-cutting suddenly gave rise to doubts: Not counting chatting in a friend group, when was the last time he saw Baoyan in Xia City?
"Mr. Bakuyan is the first typical example I want to talk about."
Wen Huilan used enough data to shake the minds of most people present, so she stopped going around and went straight to the point:
"Actually, the reason for the outflow of people is very simple: due to the decline in Xia City's abnormal properties year by year, this fastest way for ability users to make money is no longer enough to support the expenses of nearly a thousand ability users. Although Xia City has cultivated their abilities,
It has increased their experience, but once their material income declines, a considerable number of people still choose to leave..."
Xie Junping snorted: "You said Brother Baoyan is doing it for money?"
Wen Huilan smiled broadly: "Shouldn't Mr. Xie say that Mr. Baoyan, who has entered a period of explosive growth in strength, chose to be self-reliant in order to avoid increasing the burden on the supply of distorted products to the Xiacheng branch?"
Paper Cut and Xie Junping were speechless for a moment.
In fact, in the group, Xie Junping had previously called @Baoyan and wanted him to come and speak out. But Baoyan did not respond, and he did not participate in the previous discussions in the group. It was obvious that he had entered a dangerous area without the support of Lingbo.com... even
May run further.
This made it increasingly difficult for the members of the Xia City branch at the discussion site to argue - everyone knew that the core reason why Baoyan wandered in the wilderness for many years was to practice, and he had indeed made greater progress than when he was in the city.
Some of them even thought more: It seems that these B-class strongmen who have been stationed in Xia City for a long time are indeed the oldest, and most of them have entered a stable period or even a period of decline.
I won’t talk about Mr. You’s reputation. The others, such as Mr. Bai, Zongji, Juju... are all in their sixties or seventies, have a family, a job, and a career as an "explorer".
Basically no more hooks.
As for Master Gao Meng, he is still young and powerful, and his strength is still on the rise, and he does not travel far. However, he is President Ouyang's right-hand man and an important member of the Lingbo Network maintenance team. The situation is special.
The newly promoted B-class bamboo poles are also in a period of rapid growth, but now there is a "Blood Ring Fortress" that can fly to the Abyss District anytime and anywhere, and stay for most of the night - compared to the previous B-class spiritual side in the Abyss District.
The embarrassment of seconds, what else do you need a bicycle for?
Not to mention that both of them are on the spiritual side, and their demand for aberrant products is much lower than that on the physical side like Baoyan.
Oh, Wen Huilan also mentioned the factor of "Blood Ring Fortress", the time points are all stuck in advance, leaving people speechless.
Finally, Ronan broke the silence: "Brother Baoyan is a good example."
Ronan said this, which was equivalent to acknowledging the logic of Wen Huilan's argument. Of course there were some people at the scene and in the friend group who were not convinced, but at this time, no one would question Ronan's decision.
After a pause, Ronan asked again: "What about the other example...where is the horned devil?"
