I'm playing Honkai Impact 3

"Ok!"

"Correct!"

“I reported that the Strategic Investment Department has abandoned the Yalilo project.”

"If nothing unexpected happens, the market development department will take over next."

"It's a pleasure to work with you!"

In fact, Toppa originally intended to report everything truthfully, and the company's senior management might adopt a more conciliatory approach towards Arilo, considering the relationship between Qiong and Lady Black Tower.

However, Toppa was unaware of the extent of the close relationship between Qiong, Lady Black Tower, and that unknown Envoy-level being. She had tried to subtly inquire about it during her previous phone conversation with Qiong.

However, what Qiong meant was that there was no need to abandon the project; they just needed to find a different person to carry it out.

As shrewd as Toppa was, he naturally understood what Qiong meant: find an unlucky guy.

Therefore, after Toppa and Diamond provided feedback, the other party called a full meeting.

This was an internal meeting of the strategic investment department, not a meeting of all senior executives in the company. Many things could be discussed openly, although their "open talk" still contained cryptic language that ordinary people couldn't understand.

Overall, Toppa acted as a go-between in this matter.

After a deep conversation with Sora, Topa could vaguely guess what Sora was planning to do... All she could say was, "She's really bold!"

This has never happened before in the company's history regarding external debt.

Toppa wasn't sure what level Sora was capable of, but fortunately, the other party informed her in advance out of consideration for Estella, allowing her to take on a role unrelated to their interests.

Otherwise, no matter the outcome, you'll end up in a mess.

Diamonds also needs someone to cause trouble for Oswaldo, the bigger the better, to dampen the market development department's power!

The two did not communicate directly or indirectly at all, but they reached a cooperation agreement through Toppa, and hit it off immediately.

As long as Qiong isn't a pushover who can be easily manipulated by the Market Development Department, the Diamond and Strategic Investment Departments will subtly support her, with the level of support depending on the trouble she causes to the Market Development Department.

"Based on my estimation, those coming to Yalilo are likely to be employees at the same level as me in the market development department, around P45 level. But you'd better be prepared in advance, the people in the market development department are quite..."

Toppa considered his words carefully: "radical."

In their eyes, Yalilo was just a small planet that escaped the apocalypse by chance with the help of an unknown person, and it was easy for them to handle him.

"Thanks for reminding."

While talking on the phone with Topa, Qiong looked at the information Miss Hatto had gathered about the Market Development Department and its manager, Oswaldo.

Even after the interstellar trade wars, the imperial wars, and even the more brutal interstellar energy wars, the company's expansion and capital accumulation did not stop.

Oswaldo, head of the market development department, has made significant contributions to the company's expansion and capital accumulation.

This guy was previously an unknown person who abandoned the path of pioneering. No, or rather, he walked the other side of the path of pioneering, a simple, brutal, and ruthless violent pioneering.

His targets, even the most remote and uncivilized places, would connect with 'civilized' companies, creating a win-win situation. The only cost would be the blood and tears of the uncivilized 'savages,' including genocide.

"Wow, that's really something!"

Hacker Rabbit browsed through the various information gathered using hacking techniques, especially the 'Katika-Evikin extinction' incident, and sighed.

"By dividing the two clans to control the planet, sowing discord and exacerbating the hatred between the two clans, the Evikin were ultimately wiped out by the Katikas."

In this process, although the market development department claimed to be mediating the conflict, it actually instigated the tragedy behind the scenes and stood by and did nothing when the Evikins gathered to resist.

After Kattica's victory, it was incorporated into the company's portfolio.

"This method..."

The fact that no secret information could be found on the surface of these interstellar networks made Rand Duck break out in a cold sweat. She clearly realized the terrifying side of the Interstellar Peace Corporation.

In comparison, Toppa's methods of 'cooperation' in Yalilo were far too gentle!

"Don't worry, Ariello isn't worth Oswaldo's personal intervention."

Qiong squeezed Bronya's slightly cold hand.

Besides, it wouldn't matter if Oswaldo took action himself.

If the company dares to push him too far, Qiong wouldn't mind going all out; he'd just give the Tabora earrings to Aha to play with.

Let the God of Joy and the Old Man Who Beats Ashes merge.

The God of Fun would definitely be more than happy to go and play Fusion Summoning with Kripper!

At that time, the company's beliefs will be challenged.

"Oh, right, there's one more thing."

Toppa's voice came from the loudspeaker, silencing the girls in the Great Guardian's Palace.

"What is it? Does Toppa want to keep me as a sugar daddy? But I'm being kept by Estádio right now."

Qiong remained relaxed and at ease throughout, even showing a hint of excitement at wanting to cause trouble.

"?"

Toppa felt like he had heard something incredible.

"While I admit you do have a great figure, are a rich woman who'd make anyone want to cling to you, and are a good person, I'm sorry, I'm already taken!"

"???"

Another row of question marks appeared, not only on Topa, but also on the girls in the palace, who tilted their heads and typed question marks.

Except for Pera and Land Duck.

Both of them thought that Qiong was sacrificing her looks to please the rich woman and help Belloberg solve his crisis.

Bronya clenched her fists, her mindset like that of a boss whose wife works as a prostitute at a nightclub to help pay off his company's debts after it goes bankrupt.

Are you trying to say you don't mind?

"I understand your intentions, but I'm sorry, I'm not for sale on the Starry Sky Train, so my answer is: how much are you willing to pay?"

Toppa: "..."

PS:

Chapter 452 Sensei is the best! I love Sensei the most!

Qiong's thinking was simply too... unconventional and abstract, even Toppa, who traveled all over the galaxy and dealt with all sorts of people, found it difficult to keep up.

I always have this illusion that I'm facing a bunch of masked fools.

After hanging up the phone, Toppa felt a tingling sensation on the tip of his head, and it took a long time for the corners of his mouth to stop twitching.

I was so busy complaining and trying to keep up with the other person's crazy train of thought that we didn't get to talk about the Etherfronts project.

No problem. Qiong invited her to his home for dinner that evening.

Bronya, the High Protector of Belloborg, will also be present, making face-to-face communication easier and enhancing her positive image.

"Although someone is treating us tonight, Zhang Zhang, you probably won't be used to the food here. Would you like to have something to eat first?"

"Chirp chirp~"

The dimensional piggy bank that was squatting at Toppa's feet stood up, stretched its chubby little legs, and nodded in a very cute way.

……

Kripper Castle, the palace of the Great Guardian.

"All done. Now we can just relax and wait for the company executives from the market development department to come and collect the debt."

Sitting in the seat reserved for the Great Guardian, Qiong leisurely swung his legs across his back.

"Huh? Just wait like this? Do nothing?"

Haitu pinched her chin with her thumb and forefinger, her gray ponytail, dyed blue at the ends, swaying slightly as she tilted her head, her expression a little confused.

Her current hacking skills may still be a step behind that of the Star Core Hunter Silver Wolf, but gathering intelligence on the interstellar network is no problem. The ruthlessness of the Market Development Department is only a reflection of the 'Katika-Evikin Annihilation'.

Of course not.

Qiong tapped his fingers on the desk with his knuckles, making a loud thumping sound.

"Comrades, don't forget, we're back to celebrate the Sunrise Festival! We haven't even had a chance to sample everything on the food street yet!"

"What time is it? Why are you still thinking about food?"

March 7th pouted and raised her little fist to tap Qiong's head.

"Then don't eat it later."

Xing will allocate the budget for March 7th to her own wallet.

"Who said that?! I want to eat Aunt Goldie's sun pancakes. I've been missing the taste of pancakes ever since I left Belleburg."

Because of Sora, no matter how difficult or severe the situation, it can always be resolved, from Cocolia, the Mother of Desire, to Genon of the Rinnegan and Dante's Devimon...

Although he is usually carefree, prone to causing trouble and acting crazy, March 7th feels a strong sense of security whenever Qiong is around.

"Are you sure everything's okay?"

Bronya was still somewhat uneasy.

Sunrise is a very important holiday in Belloberg, and the celebration should be a joyous occasion. However, ever since Toppa visited on behalf of the company, Bronya has been worried about the debt.

Forget about celebrations, they haven't even handled much of their daily official duties.

"Don't worry, don't worry~ As long as I sacrifice my body, send steel wool to the rich woman, and use the promotion device on Black Tower and the little rich woman, all of Bellberg's problems can be solved!"

Qiong's tone was tragic yet resolute, and a faint sense of sorrow and abstraction permeated the hall.

Bai hope and Xiao Ya Ya didn't react much to Qiong's unreliable words on March 7th.

The innocent and adorable hope blinked and asked in a soft, sweet voice, "Brother Qiong, what is a promotion device?"

"It is a tool that can be used to promote one's position."

Qiong said with a serious expression.

"There's actually such a thing?"

Miss Hatbite didn't understand the rising intonation at the end of the note.

What is the principle?

Is it scientific?

Considering that Sora had once possessed unscientific gadgets such as magical girl transformation devices, Ultraman transformation devices, combining earrings, and all-purpose synthesizers, Haitu even suspected that her brother and Sensei's true form was some chubby blue robotic cat, and she decided to believe it for the time being.

Pera, however, was more concerned with the grief.

Sora's love for Bronya, the Great Guardian, is truly profound!

To pay off Belloberg's debts, he was forced to sell his body and serve wealthy women. Keep in mind, Belloberg still owed Qiong a huge debt!

Is there anything I can do myself?

He really made me cry my eyes out!

Is there anything I can do for Sora and Bronya? Even just a little bit!

Bronya lowered her head, her bangs obscuring her gray eyes, her red lips pursed, and her pink fists clenched tightly.

"I can't do anything..."

The focus was also on a faint sense of sorrow. Bronya felt a pang of pain in her heart, realizing that she was truly unfit to be the Great Guardian.

From the initial shortage of supplies and food, the disaster of the star core, the crisis brought by the Mother, to the cold wave and snow that enveloped the planet, all difficulties were overcome with the help of Qiong.

Now that Belleberg has finally embarked on the road to revival, and the fate of the people is about to change, this kind of thing has happened again, and...

Once again, we need to rely on the power of the sky to get through this.

"Okay."

Could it be that I've been going deeper into the path of pleasure lately?

How can a little emotional manipulation make people believe it to this extent?

Qiong abandoned her acting skills, switched her emotions, gently patted Bronya's head, and whispered in her ear:

"Consider this a loan from me to Beloborg. As the Great Guardian, you have to repay it. If you can't pay it back, hehehe~"
