The Blue Skeleton's Identity

"You mean... the blue skeleton?"

Once Xie Changkong finished speaking, everyone's minds simultaneously conjured the same blue figure.

The Nether Moon in the sky, the Nether River on the ground, with overwhelming strength, single-handedly cleaving through the world boss Nine Nether Three-Headed Hellwolf that had left all players helpless.

And that process was truly no different from slaughtering noobs.

His strength was indeed beyond question.

"But, isn't the blue skeleton an NPC? Would he side with us?" Emei Ci asked, quite confused.

"Actually, I'm also a bit puzzled about what kind of existence this blue skeleton is, but I can confirm he's definitely not an NPC, because Fist Sage, Qian Shanxue, Dharma Saint, and even President Su..."

As Zhao Bai'an said this, he suddenly paused, glancing around to make sure Su Lian'ya wasn't in the meeting room, then continued, "Even President Su knows him."

"Just say it, why are you so nervous?" Emei Ci found Zhao Bai'an's behavior quite amusing, "She's not going to eat you, is she?"

"Haha, Ice Sis, you don't know, Su Lian'ya talked with him all night yesterday, his current state is the most normal reaction."

"Is it that dramatic? When I chat with Little Ya, I don't feel anything special. Why do I get the feeling you're all quite afraid of her?" Emei Ci said, a bit exasperated.

"Let's not talk about this. Let's discuss the main issue. The blue skeleton's emergence, to be honest, is very difficult to investigate. Strangely enough, even the Examine Skill has no effect on him."

Xie Changkong frowned slightly.

"However, I did get some intelligence from Qi Tun Tianxia. At that time, the blue skeleton was at the Tomb of Blood Raven, and they detected some information."

"What information?" Hearing this, everyone was immediately curious.

The blue skeleton's identity had always been something many wanted to know and explore.

But his identity, much like his strength, was especially mysterious. No one could truly understand where he had come from, nor could anyone clearly know what kind of strength he actually possessed.

Every time they thought they understood the extent of his power, this damned skeleton always surprised them, giving all players a huge shock.

Therefore, they all wanted to know about the blue skeleton's identity, even if it was just a tiny bit of information.

"According to what that Mo Aotian player said, at that time he used the Examine Skill and saw the information of two Tomb-Guarding Archers. They belonged to Blood Hell's Assault Team Captain, and at that time, the blue skeleton's identity was as the superior of the two Tomb-Guarding Archers."

Xie Changkong continued, "Assault Team Captain should be a minor leader of a force, and Tomb-Guarding Archers are Blood Raven's subordinates."

"Blood Raven also existed in Mythic and was an early small boss. Blood Raven's past and information were pretty much uncovered by players in Mythic."

"Blood Raven was once a general of the Skeleton Kingdom. Due to significant grievances, after death his resentment didn't dissipate, condensing into the form of Blood Raven, cultivating into shape, always dedicated to seeking revenge against Skeleton King Al Liezh."

"And later we also saw that Blood Raven is now under the blue skeleton's command. It's not hard to deduce that the blue skeleton should be a leader in Blood Raven's faction."

After speaking, Xie Changkong took a sip of tea from the meeting table.

"Doesn't that just prove he's an NPC? How can you say he's not an NPC? You guys are confusing me."

Emei Ci said with a completely puzzled expression.

"No, no, no, I also thought so at first, but his acquaintance with Fist Sage and others, plus Qian Shanxue, as well as Dharma Saint, his divine skills, and his completely different operation style from NPCs, haven't you all noticed a problem?"

"What problem?"

Everyone's eyes lit up. Although Xie Changkong's words were somewhat cryptic, as they recalled fragments of their interactions with the blue skeleton, they seemed to grasp something, just needing one final clarification.

So they were all looking forward to Xie Changkong's next words.

Xie Changkong's lips curled slightly upward, "If I'm not mistaken, the blue skeleton should be a player! Or rather, a piece chosen by the game company to intervene in the game world."

"Combined with the recent major events in the Great Wasteland, it's not hard to deduce that the game company probably found an extraordinary expert player to enter the game with his consciousness, attempting to use him to disrupt the Great Wasteland's situation. A Silly Cutie might just be his medium for entering the game."

"However, who this extraordinary player actually is, that's intriguing."

Xie Changkong took another sip of tea, sat down, and threw the question to the others.

"This... King Poser, are you serious? Implanting a person's consciousness into an indigenous character of the game world, and a skeleton at that. Are you sure our world really has such technology?"

Ren Cangqiong shook the folding fan in his hand, somewhat disbelieving.

Xie Changkong shook his head, "This world always has things beyond our imagination. I think this isn't impossible. Jue Ying may have deep insights on this."

Jue Ying nodded affirmatively, "If such technology exists, I wouldn't find it strange. I'm just curious who this lucky person is."

"Lucky? You actually think becoming a skeleton is lucky?" Emei Ci couldn't understand their thinking at all.

"I'm not sure about that, but just look at how powerful the blue skeleton is now. On the path of pursuing strength, one often needs to sacrifice something. I think it's not unacceptable. If this technology could also bring game strength into reality, I would agree too."

Jue Ying said somewhat enviously.

Seeing others also nodding in agreement, Emei Ci was a bit speechless, "I can't stand you guys. Anyway, if it were me, I'd rather die than become a skeleton!"

"Alright, alright, Ice Sis, you might not even get the chance to transform even if you wanted to, haha. Setting everything else aside, what's most crucial now is finding him and seeing if he's willing to cooperate with us."

Xie Changkong waved his hand.

"He probably will, if he's really a player brought in by the game company. The game company definitely wouldn't refuse to cooperate with us."

Emei Ci analyzed, "After all, the game company probably doesn't want to see players expelled from the Great Wasteland either. I just wonder what their true purpose is in doing this. It all feels like there's a big conspiracy?"

"What conspiracy or not, just leave that for Jue Ying to investigate. The urgent matter now should be finding the blue skeleton and asking him to act with us."

Xie Changkong said, "According to the intelligence from the Dark Temple, the blue skeleton is currently taking Huo Silou to Qiuming Mountain. As for the specific purpose, it's still unclear. However, since we're planning to approach him, we should make sure to show enough sincerity."

"It's perfect timing, as the Temple's twelve vice presidents haven't acted together in a long time."
