Chapter 1621: Chapter 412: Godlike Maneuvers, Legacy of Expressions_2

Even he himself finds it difficult to provide a reasonable explanation.

During the wait, instead of a text reply, the other party sent a video call request directly.

Ah Lan raised an eyebrow and clicked accept.

Immediately, a light screen unfolded before his eyes.

Appearing in the frame was not the imposing and stern Mingwu General.

But rather a young Human Clan boy, seemingly not that old, with fair skin.

The boy was dressed in the most ordinary newbie black cloth clothes, holding a heavily worn short blade, with lush jungle as the background.

It was his eyes that seemed out of place with this body.

There was no youthful naivety; they revealed a deep, cold composure like a chasm and sharpness.

In the frame, the boy gazed directly at him and slowly began to speak in a familiar tone:

"President Ah Lan, long time no see."

Though the voice and appearance were entirely different, the cold aura and tone were unmistakable.

Ah Lan had already guessed the answer.

The other party was indeed Ye Ming.

The boy took a deep breath:

"I know this sounds incredible, but I did time travel...."

Ye Ming then detailed waking up after self-destruction within the body of a deceased Human Clan boy named Bai Xing.

And the experiences of discovering the player truth through data review.

He also mentioned several important transaction details with the Gold Coin Chamber of Commerce.

Ah Lan listened in silence.

Once Ye Ming finished speaking, he shook his head:

"The story you tell is intriguing, and it makes logical sense. The transaction details you mentioned indeed seem plausible."

Upon saying this, his tone suddenly shifted:

"However, you overlooked one thing. My negotiations and transactions with General Ye Ming mostly happened on a live stream, watched by many players. The details you mentioned aren’t secrets, including those transaction interactions."

"Therefore, based solely on this, you still can’t fully prove you are the deceased General Ye Ming. You might just be a newbie player who watched a lot of live streams."

The boy in the light screen visibly paused, obviously choked by his words.

Then his brow furrowed slightly, his face darkened.

He mouthed trying to retort, but was momentarily lost for words.

Seeing this, Ah Lan couldn’t help but chuckle.

The other party clearly hadn’t fully grasped the various functions of the player system, nor realized there was a Brother Guide nearby who could prove his identity.

Looking at his speechless and slightly aggrieved appearance, the amusement in Ah Lan’s eyes deepened.

He didn’t give the other party a chance to form words, and with a touch of irony, said:

"It seems our ’General Ye Ming’ needs some time to adapt to the new identity and learn how to use system functions to prove innocence. Let’s leave it at that; when you think of more compelling evidence, come find me to discuss resource extraction."

With these words, without waiting for Ye Ming’s response, Ah Lan promptly closed the video call.

Elsewhere.

Near the meteor crater, Ye Ming watched the light screen abruptly vanish, his face turning incredibly sour.

Bam!

He couldn’t help but punch the charred rock beside him, feeling utterly stifled.

"Devious merchant! Bastard!"

Ah Lan’s knowingly asking, mocking attitude was deliberately trying to pin him down.

All the talk of live streams and insufficient evidence were mere excuses.

That guy clearly recognized him but intentionally set obstacles.

Being held by the throat and teased whimsically was even more infuriating than facing an army.

When had he ever endured such treatment?

But anger doesn’t solve problems.

He quickly calmed down.

His gaze again turned to the bloody, chaotic meteor crater.

The priority is to figure out how to acquire the blood materials from the crater.

Depending on that devious merchant is hopeless.

This windfall ultimately requires him to gamble on his own.

Looking at the contact list, ready to blacklist the name "Shou Jili," for peace of mind.

But just then, the Challenger Tips suddenly sounded in his mind.

[Challenger Tips: Shou Jili has transferred 3,463,939 sacrificial power to you, with a note: Looking forward to the General’s quick return to glory. Also, a little reminder, it’s best not to use this sacrificial power to purchase any enhancement items, including Life Soul, as it will affect the ranking of the newbie leveling event (smiling emoji).]

Ye Ming’s movements instantly froze, his pupils shrunk abruptly.

In disbelief, he reconfirmed the message in his mind.

Three million four hundred sixty-three thousand sacrificial power?!

This sudden massive transfer instantly extinguished the rage in his heart, replaced by complex emotions.

Clearly, Ah Lan kept his promise.

Even if he has now become a player and changed identities, Ah Lan still acknowledged the contract based on "Ye Ming" identity, fulfilling the sacrificial power of equivalent resources.

In fact, this sacrificial power isn’t much.

Considering the peak-period stored resources of Mingwu Clan in Gold Coin Chamber of Commerce, it should be at least 100 million sacrificial power.

But at the time of Shuyan, Ascension Clan’s war, he had converted most of the resources directly into war supplies for the battle.

Leaving only this much.

Receiving over 300 thousand sacrificial power, Ye Ming’s mood greatly improved.

But he didn’t forget Ah Lan’s reminder.

The newbie leveling event has clear regulations.

No external assistance is allowed for growth, or ranking qualifications will be revoked.

This setting obviously aims for newbie players to rely on their effort, rather than backstage support, family foundation, or any other external aid.

There are still five days until the event ends; he is determined to claim the first place.
