Biography
Sacrificing concealment to expose Du Ge
Long Ye and Ou Yuancheng spend a month posing as ordinary friends, fulfilling a secret Blue Star mission to seize a resource slot and eliminate Du Ge. When Du Ge's space-frontline plan threatens to end the battlefield before they can act, Long decides to publish Du Ge's hidden identities and activities. The exposure destroys Du Ge's low-profile growth and propels Long to second place, but it also ends the safety the pair gained through anonymity. (Chapter 500)
Long continues coordinating information while Ou monitors Du Ge, but their support-oriented skills provide no direct attack or defense. He recognizes too late how difficult it is to mobilize hundreds of rival candidates through words alone, especially when Du Ge can inspire genuine cooperation across planets. Long enters the final confrontation dependent on stronger fighters and on the consequences of the information he has already released. (Chapters 501–507)
Appearance and personality
Long occupies an old man's body. He is patient, analytical, and fatalistic about the suicide mission, but his model of Du Ge's attachment to native lives does not fully predict Du Ge's response. (Chapter 500)
Keyword and skills
Dissemination awakens Grassroots Relay, causing information Long releases to be actively repeated from person to person. The skill can create enormous public reach and alter keyword-based attributes, but it does not guarantee that the message is interpreted as Long intends and offers no direct protection once his identity is known. (Chapter 500)
