Chapter 184 - 158: The Arrival of the Young Master Spirit King!
Nonsense.
Could Nancy not panic?
Just as she had sent her assistant to investigate, she received news that three Spirit Prince's Heirs… would arrive in about half an hour.
Moreover, their identities had been confirmed.
These three were direct descendants of the Spirit King, with extremely high status; they were beyond comparison to any of the Spirit King family members present.
And each of them was different; one was capricious, another bizarre and odd, and the last cold and indifferent.
In short.
Trouble, and not a single normal one among them.
And.
Nancy's eyelid twitched as she looked at Su Qi sitting in the organizer's seat.
There was also Su Buxian, a ticking time bomb.
This guy was weak and lacked any backing, but he…
He didn't act like a normal person!
In the last show, he had even challenged a Priest. It was because of Su Qi's unconventional nature that he kept a respectful distance.
"What a hellish start…"
Nancy's trigeminal nerve was in pain.
"The guy should know the weight of being a Spirit Prince's Heir, right?"
"He wouldn't cause trouble, would he?"
"This guy… he's smiling at me, looks pretty harmonious and well-behaved."
"Did I laugh a bit too loudly yesterday?"
Nancy hesitated for a few seconds, then continued hosting the next event.
In any case.
Just wait and see.
Time passed minute by minute; the celebration continued enthusiastically, and everything was proceeding perfectly normally.
Night City's event was unlike any ordinary soiree; to satisfy guests from all walks of life, in conjunction with holographics, prosthetics, and technology, a dazzling array of technical splendor was showcased, making everyone feel as if they were immersed in the experience.
Fantasy Universe indeed had substance to it.
Su Qi looked at the blueprints and models in the "Super Dream Protocol."
"The blueprint details are pretty much there, and the Super Dream… subsystem should also be built."
The "Super Dream Protocol" was an intelligent system that could continuously absorb, process, and analyze data, but the most important point was... it was linked to one's spiritual power.

In other words, the higher Su Qi's spiritual power was, the stronger its processing and analytical abilities would become.
So, Su Qi studied for a while and found that he could leave a subsystem in Night City.
"It's akin to an Electronic Shrine…"
Although it was uncertain if he could still connect after leaving the instance, The Hustlers Chamber of Commerce and The Hustlers Sect needed to expand, develop, and grow stronger, so it was essential to build an exchange system.
Additionally.
Because the "Super Dream Protocol" was linked to his spiritual power, he could allow the system to intelligently allocate a portion of it… to use the "Concrete" ability to construct models.
Existing EMT information, the entirety of Life Group's core data, and Adam Hammer's modified machinery technology were continuously fed by Su Qi into the "Super Dream Protocol."
The good news.
It could now fully replicate EMT, copy the blueprint models of Adam Hammer… This indirectly showed that given time and extensive data, the "Super Dream Protocol" could master many technological blueprints, bypassing others' technological barriers.
The bad news.
Once Night City's elite realized this, they would undoubtedly go to war, collectively attack The Hustlers Chamber of Commerce, for them, having their in-house developed technology controlled directly by another was a matter of life and death.
More good news.
Su Qi could continuously integrate various elements, deriving all sorts of patchwork products.
Even better news.
He sewed them all, laying the foundation for The Hustlers Chamber of Commerce's signature products, and what followed was depending on Simon and Sigong Cheng's execution, which was why Sigong Cheng had passed this position over to him.
Investing was risky, but if one saw a thing of unlimited potential, naturally Sigong Cheng understood what choices to make.
However.
What Su Qi miscalculated was that Sigong Cheng's real all-in bet was not only on the product but also on Su Qi himself.
Su Qi looked at the stage, smiling faintly.
"Now, all that's missing is Nancy as the spokesperson."
Nancy shivered; his gaze fell on Su Qi, whose smile gave him an uneasy feeling.
It was like having the sensation of being stalked by human traffickers in the street, about to be bundled into a car at any moment.
"But it's not that simple."
In Su Qi's mind, there were at least nine ways to make Nancy loudly recite the advertisements of The Hustlers Chamber of Commerce here in Stars Hall, his weaknesses being the Spirit Prince's Heirs… and his career.
But using leverage to threaten was ultimately a last resort.
These methods had major flaws; once used… they could have a temporary advertising effect, but would also cause Nancy to completely veer away from this connection.
Su Qi's real aim was to make Nancy the spokesperson of The Hustlers Chamber of Commerce.
In simple terms.
That was to firmly bind him to this thief ship… bah, this dream ship that had yet to set sail amidst the raging waves.
However.
Such things were never easy, after all, Sigong Cheng and Nancy were different.
Nancy's position was complicated, having seen too many chips and interests, and what he truly wanted, Su Qi did not yet know.
"Just a chance is needed."
And at that moment.
The largest holographic screen in the center of Stars Hall began flashing suddenly, and although it was brief, many still noticed it.
Then.
To prove that it wasn't an illusion just now, the holographic screen started flashing continuously, and the music and background noise were also intermittently affected.
"What's going on?" the person in charge was sweating bullets, his eyes wide open as he urgently inquired!
He was under more pressure than Nancy.
If nothing went wrong, he'd sweat through his entire outfit.
