nAfter breakfast, Liu Wei and the rookies returned to the prison square.

nLiu Wei was stunned.

n“Where are the logs?”

nWhere are the logs that were picked up yesterday?

nWhat the hell!

nYesterday, there were piles of logs in the square, but why did they disappear overnight?

n“Hey, look, over there.”

nA rookie pointed to the right side of the square.

nIn the right corner of the square, pieces of wooden planks were piled up messily, accumulating into a few hills.

nWhat was going on?

nIn just one night, all the logs collected yesterday had turned into wooden planks?

nHow did he do it?!

nThere was no such operation in the rookie training manual of Phoenix Sound Gaming Company!

nWhile the rookies were bewildered, they saw a military truck coming from behind and stopping in front of a few piles of wooden planks in the corner.

nLiao Bufan jumped out of the truck.

nLooking at these rookies who were dumbfounded, Liao Bufan felt as though he was seeing his younger self.

nThere was a time when he was as ignorant as these people.

n“Brothers, stop looking. The wooden planks were arranged by the boss. Quickly come and help. Load the wooden planks onto the truck.”

nLiao Bufan shook his head.

nOf course, he would not foolishly expose his boss’s secret.

n“The boss said that these are to be delivered to the federation. When the time comes, they will all be counted as part of your work performance. Don’t slack off.”

nThese wooden planks were all handled by Leader Fang Heng alone?

nLiu Wei and the others were all in a state of shock.

nThe boss used a cheat?

nImmediately, everyone was ecstatic.

nPerformance!

nThey didn’t know how Leader Fang Heng turned so many logs into wooden planks in one night, nor did they know where the boss bought the cheat.

nBut they did know one thing.

nThere were at least a few thousand pieces of wooden planks piled up in that mountain…

nOne piece of the wooden plank was equivalent to one performance point.

nThat was a few thousand performance points!

nWith these few thousand team performance points, not to mention the internship period, just the company’s bonus alone would be enough to make their hands go weak!

nThe promotion and salary increment was right in front of their eyes!

n…

nThree hours later.

nAt the federation temporary warehouse resource point outside Hope Town.

nA truck filled with wooden planks was parked at the back of the warehouse.

nThe federation players began to unload the wooden planks into the warehouse one after another.

nJust by looking at the quantity, there were only 500 to 600 wooden planks in a truck. It was indeed not a lot.

nHowever, in the early stages of the game, all kinds of resources were extremely scarce. Very few factions were able to produce so many wooden planks at once.

nChen Yu heard that Fang Heng had brought a batch of wood resources over, so he especially ran over to greet Fang Heng.

n“Fang Heng, I didn’t expect to see you so soon. Have you thought about what I suggested last time?”

n“You mean join the federation? I’m sorry, I don’t like to be tied down.”

n“Okay.”

nChen Yu didn’t have much hope.

nOn the contrary, he was curious about where Fang Heng got so many wooden planks.

n“The federation is currently setting up shelters and resource collection points in various places. We are quite lacking in resources like wooden planks. This time, you have solved a pressing problem.”

n“By the way, where did you get so many wooden planks?”

n“Sigh! It’s a long story. It took us a lot of effort to get them. We were preparing them for our use.”

nFang Heng did not want to tell Chen Yu that he could pick up any wooden plank in his prison base.

nThis would cause the value of the wooden planks to depreciate rapidly.

nHe pretended to sigh, “I heard that the federation is short of resources and the company has given an order. Hence, I immediately sent it over to you guys.”

n“That’s really… I’m really sorry.” Chen Yu scratched his head in embarrassment, “I’ll go talk to the commander and ask him to pay more money to your company.”

n“No need, no need. However, I would like to ask you about something. Does your federation have an S-level talent enhancement plan?”

n“This…”

nChen Yu hesitated for a moment.

nHe looked at Fang Heng and thought to himself, isn’t it a little too early to look for an S-level talent enhancement plan?

nAfter all, Level 10 was still a long way off.

n“There is, but we usually don’t give an S-level talent enhancement plan to outsiders.”

n“Is that so…”

nFang Heng was a little disappointed.

nChen Yu took the opportunity to suggest, “If you’re willing to join the federation, I believe that the commander will definitely help you find a suitable enhancement plan.”

nNo, once anyone joined the federation, they would be bounded and lose their freedom. It was very troublesome.

nFang Heng had never planned to join the federation.

nIt seemed like he could only place his hopes on the black market for the final S-level talent enhancement plan.

nHe wanted to see if he could find any information related to high-level missions there.

nFang Heng was thinking in his heart.

n“Oh right, there’s one more thing. Our Phoenix Sound Gaming Company has prepared a lot of wooden planks for the federation. It’s just that there’s a problem with the transportation.”

n“It’s a long journey from the base to here. A round trip takes six hours. Can you think of a way to solve it?”

nChen Yu was stunned.

n“What? Your company still has a lot of wooden planks?”

n“Yes, there are at least 10,000 pieces of wood planks waiting to be transported over. We lack transportation tools. It takes too much time to transport them over and over again.”

n“10,000 pieces?!”

nChen Yu was a little speechless for a moment.

nHe even thought that Fang Heng was bragging.

nIt had only been a little while since the game started. They wouldn’t be able to get so much even if they rubbed wooden planks day and night, right?

n“Then why don’t I report this to the higher-ups later and ask the commander for his opinion…”

nAs Fang Heng was speaking to Chen Yu, a group of federation players walked out from the warehouse.

nThe members of the party were all fully armed.

nThey each took out four modified motorcycles from their backpacks and placed them on the road.

nThe two players immediately stepped onto the four-wheeled truck installed at the back of the modified motorcycles and sat down steadily.

nUh… wasn’t this considered overloading?

nA federation player walked up to Chen Yu and saluted him.

n“Captain Chen! The team has assembled! Please give us instructions!”

n“Alright, let’s take a break. We’ll set off in ten minutes!”

n“Yes!”

nFang Heng was a little curious. He looked at them a few more times and asked, “Where are you guys planning to go? Is there a new situation in Hope Town?”

n“Not really. I just heard that something happened in the forest area. The captain received an emergency order last night. He asked me to bring a team over to check out the situation.”

nForest area?!

nFang Heng’s eyelids twitched when he heard that.

nHe thought with alarm, “Oh my god! It can’t be that they’re referring to me!”

n“What is it? Is it a secret?” Fang Heng asked Chen Yu.

nChen Yu shook his head and asked, “Have you heard of the Dawn Guild?”

nDawn?!

nFang Heng’s uneasiness grew stronger.

n“Yes, those people often rob ordinary players in the game. I personally hate them, but what they do does not violate the law, and the federation cannot punish them.”

nFang Heng nodded.

n“What happened to them?”

n“Yesterday, their team was wiped out in the game.”

nAs he spoke, Chen Yu’s expression became serious.

n“Last night, we received news that Dawn’s 40-man team was wiped out, and their shelter was demolished. According to them, someone has already occupied Prison No. 507 in the forest area.”

nFang Heng was silent.

n“We conducted an internal evaluation. Under normal circumstances, players at this stage of the game are unable to clear and occupy Prison No. 507.”

n“In addition, the prison side has the ability to wipe out the Dawn Guild.”

nChen Yu rubbed his chin and lowered his head to analyze seriously.

n“Also, according to Dawn’s explanation, the prison side also has a high-level sniper rifle.”

n“Moreover, there’s a relatively special mission involved in the prison. The federation is more concerned about this…”

n“In short, the higher-ups of the federation are worried that the people occupying the prison are members of an extremely dangerous anti-federation organization. This morning, the leader asked me to go over and investigate the situation there.”

n“This mission isn’t simple…”

nFang Heng silently reached out his hand and placed it on Chen Yu’s shoulder.

n“Hey, Chen Yu…”

nChen Yu, who was deep in thought, raised his head. “Eh? What?”

nFang Heng took a deep breath.

n“I confess. I did it.”

nChen Yu looked at him with a puzzled expression.

n“The prison is mine.”

nChen Yu: !!!
