Simulation Game: Crisis Management

Chapter 554 - 250: Ah Si Ba

"Tell him, if he doesn’t get me ten piglets within a week, I’ll take his kidney to pay for his gambling debt!"

"Yes, Mr. Bai!"

"Sixth Uncle, the phone!"

A long-haired man heard Mr. Bai’s order and immediately reached out for the phone in Fang Shanshan’s hand.

The two of them were Bai Mingliang, sent by Bai Maoliang to Thailand to catch piglets, and the group’s former capable enforcer, Sixth Lord.

Fang Shanshan tightly gripped the phone, tears instantly rolling down from the corners of her eyes.

"No! Sob... Brother, please spare us, I’ll give you all the money in my WeChat account!"

"Right! Mr. Bai, please spare us, considering we’re all fellow citizens from Xia Kingdom, please give us a chance, we’re still students, I beg you!"

He Shun, upon hearing their conversation, knew these people were definitely not to be trifled with.

So he hurriedly clasped his hands together, pleading desperately.

"Heh heh heh, who the hell is your fellow citizen? I am from Kokang." Bai Mingliang was completely unmoved by their begging, "If you want me to spare you, that’s possible too; the drinks at the nightclub weren’t free..."

"We’re willing to pay! We’ll pay!"

"Alright then, seeing as you’re students, I’ll give you a discount, two million each, pay now, and I’ll let you go immediately."

"Two, two million!!"

Upon hearing the first half of Bai Mingliang’s sentence, He Shun thought there was hope, but once he heard the amount, he instantly realized he was being played, and an uncontrollable rage overwhelmed him: "Why don’t you just rob a bank!!"

"Screw you! Bang!"

Sixth Lord smashed He Shun’s face with a gun butt.

A cracking sound was heard, it seemed like his nasal cartilage had fractured.

Blood gushed down from He Shun’s nostrils, quickly staining his carefully dressed shirt, even splattering onto Fang Shanshan!

"Ah! Stop it! Please don’t hit my husband!"

"I’m sorry! Sixth Brother! Don’t hit me!"

"Sixth Uncle."

Bai Mingliang stopped Sixth Lord, telling him to stop, then violently grabbed Fang Shanshan’s hair, speaking through clenched teeth: "Listen, either pay two million each, or behave yourselves, otherwise I’ll drag you out and violate you both, and cut out your kidneys, got it?"

"Understood! Understood, Brother..."

"Take them away!"

...

Jingzhou, bedroom at home.

Before entering the game level, Gu Ji first opened the Glory Shop.

That’s right.

Since completing the Japan Glory level, he still held onto 1.87 Glory Points without spending them.

But game levels are different from glory levels; all enhancements and equipment must be adjusted before entering. Once loaded into the game, they cannot be purchased.

Unfortunately, he couldn’t investigate the type of level in advance.

He first glanced at the limited-time store and found many high-value imprints and equipment refreshed there, even yellow-grade items, but the required glory points were too expensive.

After pondering for a moment, he finally decided to purchase a [Military Satellite Usage Authorization] and a [Suicide Missile Drone Support] from the privilege store, which cost exactly 1.8 points.

This purchase was made considering his current overall level.

It’s well known that civilian satellites have a minimum resolution of only 0.5 meters, making it hard to see many objects, like humans, while military low-orbit satellites can have a resolution as low as 0.2 or even 0.1 meters.

Thus, it’s easy to locate buildings or observe crowds.

It can almost be used in all levels.

The missile drone serves as a trump card, crucial for breaking a crisis situation.

Just like in the plane crash level, being surrounded by drug traffickers in the jungle.

If he’d had a missile-level suicide drone at that time, he could have easily carried out a precise decapitation strike against the opposing command personnel to escape.

It’s life-saving during critical moments.

After redeeming these items, he lay on his side on the bed and entered the level.

The reason Gu Ji chose to break through today and felt safe lying at home was mainly because his mother received a major case this afternoon. As the deputy leader of the Serious Crimes Unit of Jingzhou City Bureau’s Criminal Investigation Division, she had to stay in the team for the next couple of days.

So he had enough time to complete the level task.

After clicking into the level page.

A new level, refreshed after the plane crash level, marked [Glory] in the upper left corner. The background showed the scene of a temple massacre.

Sliding down.

Gu Ji found the new level that finished cooling down.

[Equip remaining items before entering the level?]

[Yes!]

The [Poison Needle Trap] landmine, [ERC Information Interference Device], and [Cross Medal] were essential equipment. To his surprise, the two newly redeemed items from the permissions library each occupied a slot, and along with the [Private’s Binoculars], they filled the inventory completely.

"It seems the game inventory needs to be considered based on practical applications and not just mindlessly equipped..."

Currently, Gu Ji could only equip up to six items before entering the game level.

However, he had seen inventory expansion tickets in the permissions library, though they were a bit pricey.

Glory points were still too little earned.

Feeling a bit regretful, he clicked on the unknown level.

[Randomly loading crisis...]

[Classic level loaded successfully! Current crisis: Battle under the Wall; Crisis Type: Public Health; Crisis Level: White (Moderate); Impact Range: National; Remaining Hearts: 3.]

As the text advanced.

Gu Ji first noticed the term "classic level," then was drawn to the word "National."

He had only experienced one national-level crisis before, which was the India flood level.

During the level, what Gu Ji felt most deeply was the insignificance of individual power.

Such national-level crises greatly rely on government capabilities.

In countries like India, it’s not so bad.

Although the government is corrupt and somewhat incompetent, it’s at least a legitimate sovereign state.

But if it’s a randomly selected war-torn country, where the central government can’t fully control the local areas, it would be hell-level difficulty.

And the most ideal start would be a country like Xia or North Korea, where the government has strong mobilization capabilities.

Hopefully, luck would be on his side!

Just as Gu Ji was preparing to fall into unconsciousness, a message suddenly popped into his field of vision. It was from the Ghost Server, a message sent by Wa Xueming.

As that familiar dizzy feeling surged in.

He didn’t clearly see what the content was, only reading the first paragraph, that Tangben Xiuyi had died in prison from torture, and before his death, he seemed to murmur something: May human glory last forever.

Wait!

Gu Ji initially did not react, but when he felt the phrase seemed familiar and tried to focus on reading the message, the dizziness became more severe.

Until his vision went black, and it felt as though he was falling into an endless whirlpool...

...

"Doctor! Doctor?"

"Oh my God! What the hell!"

Barely audibly, Gu Ji seemed to hear someone calling him by his ear, and there appeared to be an argument going on, although the accent was strange, like...

South Korea!

He suddenly opened his eyes and saw a young woman standing in front of him, wearing a pale pink uniform, a nurse’s cap, and a sweet expression on her face.

The surroundings resembled a hospital emergency hall, with white lights overhead, a circular triage desk at the center, and green row chairs on the right, filled with patients of varied appearances—an old lady with a bleeding forehead, a young man with a broken arm, and a child clutching their stomach in pain.

He was surrounded by a crowd.

Before Gu Ji could finish observing the environment, a hand suddenly reached over from behind, grabbing his collar, while a voice cursed loudly: "You bastard, are you crazy—!"
