In the year 18500 of the Star Calendar, war was on the verge of breaking out. Humanity had eliminated the Zerg, conquered the Demon Race, Beast Race, and many other species, but in the end, they co...
Chapter 158
…
On every planet in the Swamp, large and small, every city with human life has a Yin family mission board. Various missions are posted every few days. These missions are divided into different star levels, and the difficulty of the mission increases with the star level, with the highest being eight-star missions. Of course, the higher the mission level, the richer the reward.
Although the swamp is vast, it is an abandoned land with a harsh environment and scarce resources. The emergence of the quest line has solved the "employment" problem for nearly one-third of the swamp's population.
In the swamp, being a "tasker" is difficult and very risky, but compared to the servility in the gambling house and the prostitution in the brothel, being a dignified "tasker" can at least allow you to live with "dignity" and some hope.
Li Li is a tasker who has been in the business for many years. He usually takes on some non-dangerous tasks within the swamp that are below four stars.
For this reason, he has been to almost every place where humans can move around in the swamp, big and small planets, over the years, and has experienced life and death several times. Now he can almost give himself the title of "living map" of the swamp.
The car flew steadily at low altitude for a full hour and a half before they finally arrived at the only small city on the Blazing Star - Zhiyan City.
…
A small courtyard, built of bricks and stones mixed with yellow sand, with walls constructed of yellow sand, appears tall and sturdy. In the center sits a two-story house, encompassing a small courtyard of approximately 100 square meters. The ground is paved with turquoise jade stone, creating the illusion of a vibrant lawn. The most surprising aspect is the presence of a well within the courtyard, the water crystal clear. In a region plagued by year-round high temperatures and water shortages, wells like this are rare.
The interior of the house is made of wood and has a very retro feel. The first floor houses the living room, dining room, and bathroom, while the second floor has two bedrooms and a study.
"Boss, this is already the most luxurious place in this city. I wonder if you are satisfied with it?" Li Li wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and asked respectfully with his head lowered.
Li Li thought silently in his heart that this big boss’s requirements for living environment were extremely strict.
But this was probably because of the woman in his arms who was still unconscious and whose face could not be seen clearly. Li Li guessed cautiously in his heart.
In order to express his gratitude to the boss for saving his life, Li Li drove away the people who surrounded them as soon as they entered the city. When Huo Qi asked to find a place to live, he volunteered and said that he was a "know-it-all" and took the initiative to help this boss who looked very noble and not easy to mess with find a house.
As for Zhiyan City in Chixing, it is one of the cities that Li Li is most familiar with. As a low-level tasker, it can be said that a small half of his tasks come from here.
Blazing Star is a key resting point for Federation personnel entering the swamp. Every year, many tourists and wanted criminals who sneak into the swamp wait here to rest. Therefore, there are many low-level tasks here, such as delivering goods, shopping, moving, finding housing, etc.
Li Li lives on another planet not far from Chixing. He is the only one alive in his family, a typical example of "one person's full stomach feeds the whole family."
Li Li's living conditions are a true reflection of many ordinary lower-class people in the swamp.
"Here it is."
