Chapter 29 Completed

Before, Lin Zhi couldn't control so many undead slaves at the same time and ask them to do different things.

Thanks to the training she gained during her previous battle with the giant lizard, she was able to use her mental power more skillfully.

With the help of the black swallowtail butterfly's vision, Linzhi finally saw clearly.

I saw that those red thorn plants were all bearing red thorn fruits of uniform size. The fruits were about 5 cm in diameter and the skin was covered with barbs, which were sharper and denser than those of cocklebur.

Linzhi looked at the black swallowtail butterfly's six extremely slender legs, then looked back at the redthorn fruit, feeling as if he was being forced to do something he was not prepared for.

But other than that, she had no other choice.

He had no choice but to carefully use his mental power to control the black swallowtail butterfly and let it land on the top of the red thorn fruit.

The six legs of the black swallowtail butterfly also have tiny barbs, which can just hook onto the skin of the redthorn fruit and become inseparable.

Although they picked all the bright red redthorn fruits, they were too weak to do so.

Even if Linzhi asked him to grab all the fruits, he would not be able to pick the redthorn fruits and then fly to the top of the mountain opposite where she was.

The black swallowtail butterfly relies on mental power, and its own strength value is only 10 points. Now that Linzhi has reached level 34, its strength has only reached 15 points.

It's a pity that her current level is not high enough, otherwise she could use her mental power to materialize an object and pick all the fruits on the opposite side.

Thinking of this, Linzhi can't help but feel a little regretful.

I discovered this new ability with the help of a full-level experience card, and I don’t know how many levels I need to upgrade before I can use it.

Just when Linzhi was in a dilemma.

The vegetable that had opened from the lucky box suddenly flew out of the inventory by itself.

Fly all the way to the opposite side and float around the black swallowtail butterfly.

"What's going on?"

Could it be that this vegetable has its own consciousness?

Otherwise why didn't she take it and came out on her own?

It can even fly!

Just when Linzhi was confused.

The black swallowtail butterfly made a move.

It was visible to the naked eye that the spinach-shaped vegetable turned into a stream of light, and then merged into the bodies of all the black swallowtail butterflies.

Then, their volume suddenly increased 100 times!

Linzhi stared in amazement as the black swallowtail butterfly, which was originally only the size of a baby's fist, suddenly grew to the size of a pillow, and was filled with wonder.

Then, all the black swallowtail butterflies took action together.

Previously, it took more than a dozen black swallowtail butterflies to pick the redthorn fruit at the same time, but now a single black swallowtail butterfly can pick three at once. (Six legs, two for each)

Its efficiency is so fast that it can be regarded as a model among butterflies.

In less than ten minutes, the black swallowtail butterfly had picked all the red thorns visible on the top of the cliff.

Just like the previous ores, the extra ones from the missions are also put on the [Trading Mall] in Linzhi.

The mission was successfully completed. Lin Zhi struck while the iron was hot and immediately returned to the Mercenary Union to submit the mission.

For gathering tasks with two objectives, the reward will be divided into two settlements:

The bonus for collecting 100 white crystal ores is 3 million gold coins, and the bonus for collecting 200 red thorn fruits is 4 million gold coins.

If you complete one of them alone, you can only get 60% of the reward for that one, that is, if you complete the ore collection, you will get 1.8 million gold coins.

Only after completing all the tasks can you get 100% of the task reward, which is 7 million gold coins.

"Ms. Lin, it's you."

Qian Zhaodi greeted with a smile, "Do you have anything to ask me?"

"No, I'm here to hand in the task." Lin Zhi replied.

"So soon?"

Qian Zhaodi was a little surprised.

She remembered that only three days had passed since Linzhi accepted the mission.

Moreover, it was not a casual collection mission. Not only was the place far away, but the amount required to be collected was also quite a lot.

But she completed it so quickly, what an amazing efficiency.

After being surprised, Qian Zhaodi did not forget the important matter.

"Please give me the mission items and ID card."

Lin Zhi responded and took out the white crystal ore and red thorn fruit from the inventory one by one.

There are so many of them that they cover the entire front desk.

"No need to go to such trouble," Qian Zhaodi quickly raised her hand to stop him. "Ms. Lin, you don't need to take out everything. You just need to store the items on your ID card and give it to me."

She said apologetically, "It's my fault for not explaining it clearly."

"So that's how it is. It's quite convenient."

Linzhi nodded and did as she was told, then handed the card to Qian Zhaodi.

After receiving the card, Qian Zhaodi swiped it on the machine next to her, clicked on the employer's personal information, and sent the item through the air.

In less than a minute, the other party clicked on the delivery and confirmed that "task completed".

"Ms. Lin, your mission was accomplished perfectly. 7 million has been deposited into your ID card. You can access it at any time."

As soon as Qian Zhaodi finished speaking, a series of inhalations were heard around her.

"Oh my god! There are 7 million! Where did this mercenary boss come from?"

"I just caught a glimpse of the little girl's ID card. Only bits and pieces."

"Zero Star, doesn't that mean this is her first mission?"

"The reward is so high for the first mission I accepted. What kind of mission did you accept?"

Someone who observed the situation replied:

"It seems to be a gathering mission. I just saw her take out a lot of white crystal ore and red thorn fruit."

"Hiss... No wonder, these two things are also valuable in themselves."

"But it's quite remarkable that she can collect so much at once."

"I'm not going to talk to you anymore. I'm going to take on some gathering missions too. I'll see if there are any that pay as much as she did."

"Add me in."

"Take me too."

…

"Congratulations, Miss Lin, you are now a one-star mercenary."

Qian Zhaodi gestured for Lin Zhi to check the updated information on her ID card, then asked gently, "One-star mercenaries can take on C-rank missions. Do you want to take them?"

Lin Zhi shook her head, "Not yet, I plan to finish the task at hand first."

There is no need to take on many tasks at once, just like going to work.

"Well, take care."

Qian Zhaodi watched Lin Zhi leave enthusiastically.

Seeing this, Leiman on the side showed a look of indignation on her face.

She was the one who originally helped Linzhi register. She gave her to Qian Zhaodi because she saw that her level was low. Unexpectedly, she turned out to be a dark horse.

Not only did they complete the tasks so quickly, but they also received large orders.

A total of 7 million gold coins. With the 5% commission alone, I can get 50,000.

Lei Man became extremely jealous when she thought about the endless flow of money into Qian Zhaodi's hands in the future.

but……

She thought for a moment and instantly came up with an idea.

"Hey, Qian Zhaodi, change the registered name of Linzhi to my name, and I'll give you 100,000 gold coins, how about that?"

"Why?" Qian Zhaodi asked in confusion.

Leiman smiled inwardly and didn't explain much.

"Nothing, I just saw that it's not easy for you to be alone, so I wanted to find a way to help you."

Qian Zhaodi had just started working, and there were very few people who came to her to register as mercenaries. I guess she didn't know about the concept of "commission".

The commission will be paid out in a unified manner when the monthly salary is paid.

There are still 21 days left before salary is paid.

It would be too late for her to regret it when she finds out.

Because the registrant can only be modified once.

"Sister Leiman, thank you for your kindness, but it's not necessary."

Qian Zhaodi said sincerely, "Although I am currently in the internship period and my salary is not much, it is enough for me to rent a house here by myself."

"Also, I've memorized all the necessary mercenary regulations by heart, so I won't hold you back."

She knew clearly that this job was not easy to come by.

It is extremely difficult for ordinary people to make a living in a safe zone where there is official protection.

Not long ago, a man took a fancy to her and wanted her to go back with him as his second wife.

It was the manager of the mercenary guild who happened to pass by and saved her, and introduced her to this job.

"You are in the internship period now. My expectations of you are not high. You just need to remember the rules and make sure you don't make any mistakes when helping others register as mercenaries. If you have any other questions, just ask Leiman and Xiao Chen." The manager said kindly.

Qian Zhaodi gratefully agreed, secretly believing that she would not let others down.

Every day he is the first to come and the last to leave, helping others without asking for anything in return and trying his best to socialize.

I also understand in my heart that only by working harder can I truly change my life.

But no reward without merit.

Although Qian Zhaodi was poor, she had no ambitions.

She rejected Leiman, whose face suddenly darkened.

"Qian Zhaodi, think it over carefully," Lei Man said with a sneer in her eyes. "This is 100,000 gold coins. Your monthly internship salary here is only 5,000 gold coins. After paying the rent, there won't be much left. Are you sure you don't want it?"

Qian Zhaodi remained silent.

Lehman is right.

Land in the safe zone is extremely expensive. An ordinary 60-square-meter apartment costs several million gold coins, and the villa area starts at tens of millions.

It costs her 4,000 gold a month just to rent a single room in an apartment.

Adding water, electricity, and food to the bills, you have to budget carefully and tighten your belt every day.

"I'm sure. Thank you so much, Sister Leiman."

"If I really need you in the future, I will come to you."

Seeing Leiman's gloomy face, Qian Zhaodi said sincerely:

"Although Sister Leiman sometimes speaks harshly, I know it's all out of kindness and for my own good. I will repay you in the future."

But I can't do that to Lehman.

"Are you really stupid or are you just pretending to be stupid?"

She angrily said something and left quickly.

As soon as she left, Qian Zhaodi put away the innocent smile on her face and showed an expression of "as expected".

As early as the end of the world, when her parents and brother died, she was no longer the naive little girl.

Five minutes later, someone walked to the front desk.

"Hello, what can I ask you?" Qian Zhaodi resumed her professional smile.

"Ah, hello. Could you please help me find any combat missions with higher pay?"

…

Lin Zhi, on the other hand, was browsing the gaming forum intently at this moment.

Her next task is a puzzle exploration type.

She was still a novice when it came to this type of task, so she wanted to quickly find some examples for reference.

Coincidentally, just after opening the [Strategy Area], Linzhi saw a new post, and immediately clicked in to check it out——

[Saving a life]: I saw a puzzle treasure chest in the wild this morning and almost didn’t make it back home.

[Your father]: Brother, tell me in detail.

[Saving a Life]: The treasure chest was in the center of a field of caltrops. A sign next to it said, "Destroy all caltrops within the specified time." Since wood is afraid of fire, I set it on fire...
