Quick Travel to the Clouds

Chapter 777 Challenge Dungeon 33

As soon as the door opened, a spacious and bright reception hall came into view, with sharp lines and a strong sense of technology.

Members dressed in uniform combat gear or casual wear came and went. Upon seeing Xie Yipei, they would immediately stop what they were doing and respectfully nod and greet him: "Captain!"

When their gaze fell upon Yun Chu, it carried a hint of curiosity and scrutiny, but they controlled it very well and quickly looked away to continue with their own business.

Clearly, news of the captain's marriage has already spread within the inner circle.

Xie Yipei did not linger in the hall, but led Yun Chu directly through the corridor and into the core area.

As he walked, he briefly explained to her, "This floor is for daily office work, intelligence analysis, and mission coordination. Downstairs are the training grounds, equipment depot, medical center, and members' dormitories. The guild currently has 47 core combat members and over 100 peripheral reserve and logistical support personnel."

His voice was steady, carrying a sense of composure as if he were in complete control. Along the way, people constantly reported to him or handed him documents.

"Captain, a reconnaissance report just came back from area B37. They've detected fluctuations at what appears to be a new dungeon entrance, with an energy rating of C+. I suggest sending someone to conduct a preliminary investigation."

"Captain, news has come from the 'black market' that a batch of rare alloys has been sold. The quality is good, but the seller's asking price is too high. Here are the details."

"Captain, please review the allocation plan for the two team dungeons next week."

Xie Yipei kept walking, listening attentively while quickly making a decision:

"C+ level fluctuation. Have the reconnaissance teams from Team Three confirm it first, equipped with standard exploration gear, and give me a detailed report within two hours."

"Alloy priority will be given to upgrading the equipment of Team Two. The price is negotiable, but the quality must be reviewed by the Equipment Department. Let Lao Wu handle the coordination."

"The quotas will be redistributed based on the contribution to the last dungeon and the current combat strength assessment. The plan will be sent to the deputy captains of each squad. If there are any objections, please raise them in person this afternoon."

He handles matters efficiently and decisively, with clear logic, and each instruction is to the point without any unnecessary words.

After receiving clear instructions, the person reporting immediately took the order and left; the entire process was as smooth as a sophisticated machine in operation.

Yun Chu quietly followed beside him, watching this man display a completely different side in his own domain.

In the game, he is a dangerous and powerful hunter; in private, he is a strong and domineering partner; and here, he is an undisputed leader, calm, wise, far-sighted, and with an aura that commands respect and even awe.

He took her to visit the training ground, where members were engaged in high-intensity sparring or skill practice, and the atmosphere was serious and focused.

As you pass by the armory, you can see through the glass all sorts of weapons, armor and special items neatly arranged, gleaming with a cold light.

The medical center is clean and tidy, and staffed with professional healing-type players.

The entire guild base operates smoothly, and the members are in high spirits and maintain strict discipline.

Xie Yipei's ability and skill in building and managing such a guild that has established itself in the infinite world are far greater than Yun Chu had imagined.

During the visit, Yun Chu's gaze inadvertently swept over several young faces who were practicing their skills alone in a corner of the training ground or burying themselves in analyzing data in the intelligence room.

Among them was a taciturn boy who constantly wiped his long sword; a girl wearing glasses who frowned as she stared at a bunch of complex data models; and a short boy who always managed to use some unexpected tricks in simulated combat...

A thought suddenly struck her.

The book "The Male Streamer's Challenge Dungeon" mainly revolves around the male protagonist Xia Wanqi and his "Wanxiang Guild", and describes in detail how Xia Wanqi gathers a group of powerful teammates with different characteristics.

Qin Zhou, Tan Zongyou, Min He, Cheng Yan, Ruan Qingqing, Xue Fei, Zhao Zhirou... Yun Chu remembered these names and their abilities when she received the plot.

But at this point in time, Xia Wanqi is just getting started. His "Myriad Phenomena Guild" has not even been launched yet. These people should still be scattered in various corners of the infinite world. Perhaps they have not yet shown their talents, perhaps they are trapped in a low-level dungeon, or perhaps... they are being ignored by other forces.

Xie Yipei's "Divine Speed ​​Guild" is clearly far stronger and more established than the current "Myriad Forms." If they could find these people beforehand and recruit them...

Once this thought arose, it quickly took root and spread in Yun Chu's heart.

Winning over these powerful supporting characters in the future will not only greatly enhance the strength of the "Divine Travel Guild" and make Xie Yipei's power more stable, but from a mission perspective, it also indirectly weakens the future support for the male protagonist, Xia Wanqi. It's a win-win situation.

However, this matter needs to be considered carefully.

She couldn't directly tell Xie Yipei, "I know these people will be very powerful in the future, go and recruit them quickly," because that wouldn't explain the source of the information.

She needs to use her own methods, such as spatial abilities and the reconnaissance capabilities of the Fire Iron Flying Ants, to "encounter" or "discover" these promising talents in dungeons or player gathering areas, and then "recommend" them to Xie Yipei as a guild member or the captain's wife.

Just as Yun Chu was lost in her thoughts, frowning slightly as she plotted, Xie Yipei finished dealing with an urgent matter and came over.

He naturally reached out and put his arm around Yun Chu's waist, pulling her closer to him, and asked in a low voice, "What are you thinking about? You've been a little distracted since earlier." His gaze fell on her slightly furrowed brow, and his fingertips traced it, as if trying to smooth out the wrinkles.

Yun Chu snapped out of her daze and looked up at the handsome face so close to her.

At this moment, he shed the coldness he displayed when handling official business, and when his gaze fell upon her, it carried a unique focus and a hint of barely perceptible gentleness.

Her lingering worry about the "original plot" resurfaced—such a powerful, vibrant man, with whom she had shared intimate relations and a destiny intertwined, was completely absent from the book?

The most likely scenario is that before the male protagonist Xia Wanqi rose to prominence and the Wanxiang Guild gained fame, Xie Yipei and his Shenxing Guild had already perished for some reason.

Or perhaps he himself has perished in some extremely difficult instance.

This conjecture sent a chill down Yun Chu's spine, followed by a strong sense of urgency.

She looked at him, his image reflected in her clear, peach-blossom eyes, and said earnestly, with a concern she herself was unaware of: "I'm thinking about how to protect you."

Xie Yipei was clearly taken aback, seemingly not expecting this answer.

He then chuckled softly, a laugh that resonated from his chest, carrying a sense of pleasure and a hint of satisfied satisfaction.

He raised his hand and affectionately stroked Yun Chu's pert nose, his tone completely nonchalant, even carrying a hint of indulgence like coaxing a child: "Your husband is very strong, protection? No need."

In his view, Yun Chu's words sounded more like a sweet, dependent worry from a newlywed wife. He enjoyed the feeling of being cared for by her, but didn't think it was really necessary.

He has climbed his way up to his current position in the infinite worlds, relying solely on his own strength.
