Chapter 24

Only five crystals? Shenqi wants 10,000 crystals at a time. The reward is too low, so I can’t go.

Cheng An was not interested in this hard labor task at all.

He moved his eyes and scanned the "wish list" one by one.

[Assist the Federal Sheriff’s Office in street patrol work and maintain public order. Physical fitness is required. All-nighters are accepted. Payment will be made after three days of work: Crystal*2]

[Letter express requires two temporary workers, one crystal every 5 days.]

[Sanitation work in the area around the Star Tower, one crystal every 7 days, only female.]

[50 crystals, looking for a B&B on Lanke Street, urgent! Please bring your own basement that can accommodate at least fifty women; agency fee is 5 crystals.]



At a glance, Cheng An felt as if he had arrived at a strange job fair.

Moreover, the tasks of these "wishers" are very down-to-earth. Most of them do not involve the supernatural world, and they do some work in the city or suburbs.

Ordinary people can also complete it, and the difficulty is very low.

After walking for a while, Cheng An finally saw a mission involving extraordinary beings.

[To explore overseas, find a driver and a coordinator. A driver's license is required, more than 3 years of driving experience, and no more than 45 years old. Return to the city in three days. The reward is 30 crystals. If there is death, the pension is 500 crystals]

"I'm satisfied, but as a driver, will I be asked to be a guide? I'm not familiar with this world, so I can't be a guide, and the coordinator seems to be responsible for exploring the road, and the mortality rate is extremely high."

Cheng An felt a little regretful.

[The Baron Scar's family hires a chief guard, and they are required to officially register priests for the church. The monthly salary of junior priests is 300 crystals. If there is an intermediate priest who is willing to discuss the salary]

Cheng An smacked his lips, having a deeper understanding of the extraordinary beings in this world.

It turns out that junior priests also have to work for others! Moreover, nearly three years’ salary is enough to cover the expenses of the second divine revelation.”

Unfortunately, he is not yet a priest, so naturally he cannot take this job.

[Looking for a live-in maid, I am required to be enthusiastic, cheerful, beautiful, capable, and under the age of twenty-five; to fulfill my wish, I will pay one crystal every day, and I will pay it every day]

Cheng An was stunned.

Damn, this is recruiting a mistress, right?

Thirty thousand yuan a month is quite a lot! It can catch up to one-tenth of that of a junior priest!

"Look for something else."

Cheng An frowned and walked around the hall.

However, the tasks here are either ones that he can easily complete at present, but the pay is not high and it takes a lot of time.

He only had three days of "stay", so he couldn't afford to spend five or six days earning a crystal.

Time is money, this sentence is the most appropriate reflection of Cheng An's current situation.

Those who can obtain dozens or hundreds of crystals in a few days either have high requirements for the recipient's strength, or have a very high mortality rate, so the pension is clearly stated.

"If I die, no one will be able to collect my pension."

"Wealth can be gained through risk. If you want to become an extraordinary person quickly, it is impossible without risks."

[Church trial, clean up the devil's cave! A stronghold sixty miles outside the northern border, please ask for help. It is suspected that a new cave has appeared, and the church will attack it! Now you need to follow a helper (collect loot along the way), a driver, reward 80 crystals, death Pension 600 crystals!]

A relatively high-paying, achievable wish list comes into view.

Who says you can’t be a guide if you don’t know the way?

A stronghold sixty miles outside the northern border?

Cheng An remembered that he had mentioned it during his travels. This place was called Stronghold No. 114. It was a product of the early expansion of the Federation's territory, and it has long since been abandoned.

He opened the map he bought and found that this was indeed the abandoned official stronghold. It had been occupied by many Kowloon people who came to the Federation from Kowloon and had a very bad life more than ten years ago, and turned it into a village.

After thinking for a while, he took off the wish list, walked to the bar, and asked a woman in work clothes: "Hello, I want to take this task."

The girl glanced at his God of War emblem, quickly registered Cheng An's name and mission, then picked up the wish list, stood up and said, "Okay, please follow me."

The two of them arrived at the back, where there were dozens of small private rooms, each with a house number on it.

Cheng An noticed that there was the same house number in the lower left corner of the wish list (Room 214), and he roughly guessed the operation mode of this prayer hall.

Those who post tasks, if they are relatively wealthy, can spend money to wait in a private room at the back. The waiter here will take the person who accepts the task to the back, and the two parties will negotiate and the employer will only accept the task.

For some low-paying jobs, registration is completed directly at the bar in front.

The female waiter took Cheng An to room 214 on the second floor. As expected by Cheng An, someone was already waiting in this teahouse-like private room.

There are three men and two women in total.

Two of the men were wearing standard military uniforms, loaded with guns, and standing tall and straight at the window. At first glance, they were professional followers or security guards;

There was also a young white man with a burly build and a rough face, who was quite cleanly dressed. He was standing next to them with his hands tied in a very humble manner.

Sitting at the tea table were two women, one older and one younger.

The younger one looks to be about 12 or 13 years old, with blond hair and blue eyes, naturally cute, dressed in a classic gothic lolita style, with two braids and double ponytails hanging down to the ground.

She was looking at Cheng An with curious eyes.

The older one is an adult woman, with her long silver hair spreading like sunshine from the gap in her scarf.

She wears soft scale armor that is obviously very expensive at first glance, and her face has soft and charming curves, a straight nose, and picturesque eyebrows.

The most striking thing is that this heavy and thick scale armor can't cover up his proud and almost obscene figure at all.

This is a stunning woman who is proud and charming at the same time.

Cheng An glanced blankly at the two women who had the right to speak.

The young woman wearing silver scales was also looking at Cheng An. Her beautiful eyebrows furrowed slightly and she asked without emotion:

"We have found a driver, but we still need a professional assistant. What you need to do mainly includes dissecting the body of the demon species, digging out the cursed core, and if necessary, some of the demon species' brains and internal organs. If you can accept it,

, we can set off now."

Cheng An said without hesitation: "I can accept it, but I have a problem."

The silver-haired woman said expressionlessly: "Say."

Cheng An said: "Assistant and driver, you are paying two benefits, eighty crystals each, right?"

"Yes, what's wrong?"

"That's good. I can drive a car. I know the location and situation of No. 114 Stronghold!"

Cheng An said with a shy smile and pointed at the white young man, "Let him go, I want both of these rewards!

"And I only need 150 crystals."

Before the two women could say anything, the young man with a gloomy expression became furious: "You brat! What nonsense are you talking about? Are you looking for death... Ouch!"

In the middle of his words, he suddenly flipped forward and fell upside down to the ground. He was kicked to the door and passed out.

"Shut up! Is there any place for you to talk?"

The blond twin-ponytail loli snorted coldly, and then she took the silver-haired woman's hand with stars in her eyes and started acting coquettishly:

"Sister Toris, that ugly man is disgusting and dares to make decisions for us without permission. I choose this young and handsome brother! He also saved us ten crystals!"

"Just wait a moment."

The woman named Toris frowned slightly and looked at Cheng An: "Are you familiar with Stronghold No. 114? What did you mean when you just said that the door is clear?"

Cheng An replied politely: "This is our hometown dialect over there, No. 114. My great-grandfather used to work there as a laborer when he was young. It has been passed down from generation to generation in the family. Although I have never lived there,

But I know something about there that others don’t know!”

It all depends on how I will adapt it to you when the time comes! Cheng An calmly suppressed his guilty conscience.

"So that's it, I understand."

Toris nodded slightly: "Then you will take over the two jobs, and I will give you double the pay. Do you have anything else to deal with now?"

"No." Cheng An answered truthfully.

He took all his belongings with him.

"Okay, let's set off now."
