Chapter 115: The Great Battle is Imminent, Information Integration, and the Learning-Loving Point-and-Read Machine
Yu Yuan read through the gossip news once more before placing it back on the magazine display stand.
No wonder this news article was Bronze quality—the amount of information it contained was truly substantial.
First, it confirmed that the Aurora Animal Assistance Association's human live experiments had succeeded, and they had already conducted injection modifications on relevant internal members.
Both Police Chief Hogg of the Black Shield Police Department and Loris were modified individuals.
Second, factional conflicts had clearly emerged within the Aurora Animal Assistance Association.
Yu Yuan had seen news about Preacher Miller more than once.
A few days ago, it was also him who took that person who had been continuously killing scavengers as his student.
Now he was scheming to control the Black Shield Police Department—as someone who had just been promoted to preacher, he was clearly a member of the Driven Faction.
"This might be an opportunity to eliminate Loris!"
Picking up the "Greenwood City Daily," Yu Yuan revealed a pleased smile the next moment.[Neighborhood News Section]

After two days of intelligence gathering, Baku of the Thug Prison had confirmed that there was indeed an extremely secretive connection between the Black Shield Police Department and the Aurora Animal Assistance Association.
He had also obtained substantial evidence that the Aurora Animal Assistance Association possessed the ability to control mutated creatures.
During the investigation process, he also detected the presence of another force that seemed interested in the Aurora Animal Assistance Association as well.
Finally, Baku's focus locked onto the Iron Anchor Shipping Company.
He even suspected that it was the Iron Anchor Shipping Company that provided them with intelligence initially.
After emergency discussions with Victor, they went to Green Forest Port last night and reached an agreement with Carlos, Chairman of the Iron Anchor Shipping Company, to jointly oppose the Black Shield Police Department and the Aurora Animal Assistance Association.
Regarding the division of spoils, the Burning Fortress demanded priority selection rights for loot from the Black Shield Police Department, while the Iron Anchor Shipping Company requested to receive the animal experiment results from the Aurora Animal Assistance Association.
The eastern city and the remaining resources from both organizations would all be taken over by the Thug Prison.
The attack time was also readjusted—a joint general assault would be launched in 5 days.
——————————
"Not easy! After so many days of brewing, it's finally about to begin!"
"Five days later... which means the general assault will be launched on the 26th?"
Yu Yuan's brain operated at high speed.
Then he looked at the other two news items.
"Oh~ The mysterious person has appeared again! No wonder the Thug Prison made such a decisive decision—their big boss behind the scenes came over."
The second news article clearly stated that the mysterious person who had appeared at the Thug Prison days ago appeared again yesterday morning.
Obviously, last night's cooperation between Baku and the Iron Anchor Shipping Company was closely related to the mysterious person's instructions.
This further confirmed the speculation that the mysterious person was the true master behind the Thug Prison.
"Things are getting more and more interesting."
What was originally a three-way battle had now evolved to involve six forces.
"No... perhaps even more than six forces might participate this time!"
Yu Yuan looked at the final news item.

According to citizen reports.
At 2:18 AM, a group of wasteland raiders crossed the Harmon Bridge from the western wasteland and entered the Hanlace Apartments in the western district of Greenwood City.
According to witnesses, there was still unwashed bloodstains on this group's vehicles.
The arrival of these raiders also attracted the attention of the western district's thug force—the May Alliance.
The May Alliance Council stated that the western district was their May Alliance's territory and they would not allow unknown forces to enter; they would monitor them.
Subsequent developments will be continuously tracked and reported by this newspaper.
——————————
"Hmm~~ And that unknown force that infiltrated the southern city is also an unstable factor."
As far as Yu Yuan was concerned, he most hoped for the situation to become chaotic—the more chaotic, the better!
Only this way could he take the opportunity to infiltrate the Johnck Zoo and complete his Silver-level regional event.
Now that the outbreak time of the faction war and the participating forces were confirmed, it was time to draw new Fate Cards.
"All necessary preparations have been completed, now all that's left is to wait.... hmm~~"
Yu Yuan, who was just about to draw his Fate's Gift, paused slightly and showed a thoughtful expression.
He glanced at that gossip news newspaper from before.
"Perhaps I can take this opportunity to deal with Loris, but this would require Carmen to do it!"
"Freedom from fear—I'm sure Carmen would greatly need this!"
Having made his decision, Yu Yuan began to draw this round's Fate's Gift.
Scanning the three Fate's Gift options, he directly chose the one he needed most.
—The Studious Reading Pen
Function: By using the reading pen to read books, increases the success rate of comprehending skills. (The more knowledge mastered from books, the higher the probability of comprehending advanced skills)
This reading pen came at the perfect time!
What troubled him most right now was his inability to comprehend the skills from those books.
As the Fate's Gift selection completed, this round's Fate Card appeared before Yu Yuan.
[This Round's Fate Card—Conquest]
[Conquest Card, Quality 'Rock' level, player must conquer a powerful creature or an organization of ten or more people within two days, otherwise the player dies.]
(Friendly reminder: Conquest is man's most noble pursuit!)
"I knew it!"
Looking at the Conquest Card, Yu Yuan had already anticipated this.
After using them for so long, Yu Yuan had grasped some patterns about Fate Cards.
The simplest one was: the more powerful the Fate's Gift that appeared, the higher the intensity of the Fate Card drawn.
"Only two days?"
Yu Yuan quickly selected the target for this conquest—he had two choices.
One was the Aurora Animal Assistance Association's Raven.
The other was the 'Blood Raven' scavenger organization.
The Raven needed no explanation—as a mutated creature, it definitely met the criteria for a powerful creature.
As for the 'Blood Raven,' through Carmen's intelligence, he had already gained very clear understanding of this scavenger organization's situation.
They had exactly thirteen members, perfectly meeting the mission requirements.
In the end, Yu Yuan still chose the 'Blood Raven' as the mission target for this Conquest Card.
After formulating his upcoming plans, the time was only 7:00 AM.
Yu Yuan picked up the [Studious Reading Pen] and those skill books, beginning today's study session.
At 7:00 PM, after equipping himself properly, Yu Yuan left the shelter.
Entering the sewer, after activating the flamethrower defenses, he rode Mie Mie toward District 6.
This time he left a note for Carmen at their usual spot and drew another black circle at the alley entrance.
Then he didn't linger long.
Ducking into the sewer, he had Mie Mie carry him as they raced wildly toward the southern city district.
