Chapter 137 Mysterious Invitation! Lu Dayong's Astonishment... Don't be a traitor! Welcome to Paradise!
It took some time to barely tidy up the messy room.
Lu Dayong comforted his sister again before going into the kitchen.
The other party didn't even spare the kitchen, and he quietly cleaned it up.
It wasn't until after 8 p.m. that we finally got everything sorted out, prepared the meal, and called my sister over to eat.
The atmosphere during the meal was very tense.
Lu Xiaoyu, the younger sister, silently shed tears again.
Seeing this, Lu Dayong felt a pang of pain in his heart, sighed softly, and whispered to comfort him, "It's alright, it's okay, don't cry."
"But brother, what will we do in the future? Uncle..." Lu Xiaoyu's tears fell in drops.
Lu Dayong fell silent again.
The first thing he thought of was to escape from here... and leave Dashi City with his sister.
Selling their belongings could net them tens of thousands of gold coins, enough for them to settle down in another city.
But then he shook his head with a wry smile, dismissing the 'unrealistic' idea.
Don't be fooled by the fact that there are buses to the dungeons... there are no buses to get from one city to another.
Because the distance was too far and the road was full of monsters, no one had the ability to clear the road over such a long distance.
Without public transportation, you have to travel on your own.
But he was only a level 3 Shield Guardian, and his sister was even more so, not yet awakened, just an ordinary person.
Are they moving?
It's more like sending extra food to the monster!
Moving within the city is meaningless.
His uncle is also a professional, and now he's clearly got his eye on him... No matter where he moves, he'll probably be found immediately.
He didn't even have a chance to report it to the Combat Division... His uncle didn't do anything to them, he just occasionally came to harass them, and probably wouldn't even give them a warning.
The situation... is unsolvable!
Lu Dayong remained silent, while Lu Xiaoyu cried even harder: "I miss my mom and dad, if only they were here..."
This caused Lu Dayong a pang of heartache.
My parents have been dead for three years.
When his parents were alive, that uncle never came to visit.
His parents were both in elite professions. If his parents were still alive... even if that uncle had ten times the courage, he wouldn't dare to bully his siblings like this!
It's only because his parents are dead that he dares to act so recklessly!
Lu Dayong pursed his lips, but finally whispered, "It's okay, we'll think of a way...we will..."
He whispered words of comfort to Lu Xiaoyu, but wasn't he also comforting him in return?
A moment of silence fell over the room.
After a long while, Lu Dayong took a deep breath and forced a smile, saying, "It's okay. I know a few professionals. I'll talk to them tomorrow and see if we can come up with a solution... Leave this to me, don't worry about it. For now... you can stay at the school."
Lu Xiaoyu wiped away her tears, having no other better option, and could only nod.
The brother and sister whispered a few more words, and finally Lu Xiaoyu went back to her room to sleep, while Lu Dayong continued to clean up the mess in the living room.
...
It was past midnight when Lu Dayong looked at the house he had finally managed to tidy up, his eyes dim. After washing up, he went back to his room, but he couldn't fall asleep at all.
He clenched his fist and then released it repeatedly.
He cursed himself for being useless, unable to protect what his parents left behind, and causing his younger sister to live in constant fear.
But that's how cruel the world of professionals is.
He was just an ordinary professional.
What ability do we have to resist this oppression?
He stared blankly at the ceiling, his heart filled with resentment.
Just then, a hazy light suddenly appeared in the corner of his eye.
Lu Dayong was stunned for a moment, then subconsciously looked towards the bedside.
Then his eyes widened... because a purple light inexplicably appeared at the head of his bed.
The light grew brighter and brighter, forming a purple vortex. Lu Dayong jumped up with a start, watching the ball of light warily.
The ball of light didn't seem dangerous; it was just spinning around.
Not long after...
With a soft 'thud,' it sounded as if something had fallen out of the vortex.
Then, the light flashed, suddenly contracted, and disappeared.
The surroundings returned to calm.
Lu Dayong was startled. He stood at the foot of the bed for a long time, not daring to move, and observed for a long time before finding that there seemed to be no movement.
He hesitated for a moment before turning on the light.
Then I noticed a dark, folded card on the bedside table...
He had just cleaned the room, so it's safe to say this thing just appeared!
Did you fall out of that whirlpool?
Lu Dayong's expression changed.
After pursing his lips, he tried to approach. The thing had appeared so mysteriously, but it seemed harmless.
He didn't touch the thing rashly, but first examined its appearance.
The folded card, resembling some kind of letter, was entirely black with exquisite patterns, clearly indicating its high-end nature.
The front has two characters written in an artistic font...
"paradise?"
What is that?
He frowned.
After hesitating for a while, and seeing that he hadn't found any danger, he pursed his lips, tentatively touched it, but quickly withdrew his hand.
It feels a little cool to the touch, but it doesn't seem dangerous.
Finally, he took a deep breath, picked up the thing, and carefully opened it.
Then, a line of text appeared in front of him.
He was stunned from the very beginning.
Because it was... clearly his name!
Your own name?
this……
He glanced inside instinctively.
Invited Guest: Lu Dayong
Hey, heard you're stuck at a bottleneck of 'helplessness'? How about it? Want to change? Want to break free from those invisible shackles? If so… tonight at midnight, we'll teach you how to unlock them.
[Inviter: Amusement Park Owner]
Interview Location: Amusement Park
...
Lu Dayong stared blankly at the line of witty text, completely mesmerized.
...A void vortex appeared out of nowhere, and then a mysterious black post fell out of it, containing my own name...
And the other party seemed to know what they were facing...
The inviter seems to be...an organization?
"Paradise?...The owner?..."
"What exactly is going on?"
Lu Dayong's mind went blank. He paced back and forth, glancing at the post every now and then, but the more he looked, the more horrified he became!
He didn't mention his uncle's matter to anyone.
How did this mysterious organization called 'Paradise' know about this?
Why did they invite me?
What am I inviting myself to do?
The more I think about it, the less I understand, and the more uneasy I become.
He couldn't sit still any longer and paced back and forth in the room.
Suddenly remembering something, I quickly grabbed my phone and checked...
Time had passed, and it was already past 11 p.m.
It's 12 o'clock...
We're very close!
Lu Dayong pursed his lips tightly. After thinking of something, he suddenly went out, clutching the invitation tightly, and ran to the rooftop.
The other party is too mysterious, and we don't know how they got here... Could it be the same way this post appeared?
It would be better to leave home then.
What if the other party has ill intentions...
No, the other party is so powerful and mysterious, it seems pointless for them to come here, right?
Perhaps they also knew about the sister's existence...
only……
"Why did you fall for me?"
Lu Dayong's mind was in complete chaos.
Time is passing...
...
Atop a cloud-shrouded landscape, Qin Fang pours tea.
Time passed by little by little.
It's finally 12 o'clock.
Settlement began yesterday.
At the same time, a white light appeared in front of him.
Then, a cautious figure appeared atop the peak of the Upside-Down Cloud Realm.
He looked shocked and turned to look around.
Then, the other person's gaze was fixed on Qin Fang.
Qin Fang, wearing a liar's mask, looked up, smiled gently, and said, "You've arrived? Have a seat."
He seemed very outgoing and friendly.
Lu Dayong looked reserved. He hesitated for a moment, but eventually walked over slowly.
"Excuse me, who are you...?"
"Let me introduce myself. I'm the owner of the amusement park, and I'm the one who invited you. Hello."
"Hello, hello..."
Lu Dayong was very uneasy, and replied with a stammer and trembling voice...
He didn't know the other person's rank, but just by looking at the surrounding scenery, the other person's demeanor, and the way the invitation was sent, he knew very well...
The other party was someone far beyond his imagination!
He had no choice but to be reserved!
"Don't be so nervous. I didn't invite you here with any ill intentions. Sit down and let's talk."
Qin Fang smiled gently.
Perhaps it was this gentle approach that had some effect, as Lu Dayong's tense body gradually relaxed.
Finally, he pursed his lips and said, "Thank you."
He sat down awkwardly.
"Through some rather unusual channels, I've learned that you're currently facing some difficulties... Coincidentally, I have some ability to resolve your problems. However, you'll need to pay a price... Are you willing?"
Qin Fang looked at Lu Dayong, who had sat down, and said with a smile.
Lu Dayong tensed up, his voice trembling as he asked, "Wh-what price?"
"From now on, you must obey my orders."
"To obey...you?"
Lu Dayong was a bit confused. He was just an ordinary level 3 tank, and the other side needed him to obey orders?
What kind of price is this?
A look of doubt appeared in his eyes.
After a moment of silence, he cautiously asked, "May I ask... are you... human?"
This question piqued Qin Fang's interest. He asked with great interest, "If it is, what then? If it isn't, what then?"
Lu Dayong hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "If it is... okay. If not... I'm sorry."
He mustered his courage and looked at Qin Fang: "Although I don't know why you chose me... I am human and I don't want to do anything to harm humans."
"Oh? Aren't you afraid of dying if you refuse me?" Qin Fang narrowed his eyes, deliberately revealing a hint of murderous intent in them.
Lu Dayong trembled all over, but in the end he pursed his lips and said, "I'm sorry, even if you want to kill me, there's nothing I can do... I won't be a traitor!"
The atmosphere seemed to fall silent instantly.
A very long time passed.
"Hahaha, good, congratulations on passing the test. Don't worry, I am human, not a alien."
Qin burst into laughter.
Lu Dayong was stunned for a moment, and then he let out a long sigh of relief.
...
"Sign this contract, and you'll be a member of the park. Then... your troubles will disappear."
Qin Fang handed over the prepared contract.
Lu Dayong was stunned, and subconsciously took it to read it.
The contract was very basic, only roughly stating that 'Lu Dayong has joined the amusement park,' and that he should 'keep his amusement park member identity as much as possible, and not tell anyone without the boss's permission,' etc.
That's all.
Lu Dayong was full of questions, but in the end, he pursed his lips and thought about the situation he was facing.
If the other party is so powerful that they can send an invitation from thin air, and that invitation is like entering a dungeon... then resolving the matter of my uncle should be a piece of cake, right?
Thinking of this, he took a deep breath, picked up the pen next to him, and signed his name at the end.
After he finished, he looked at the mysterious masked man.
"What's next?"
"Next, put these things away and then come up with a code name that suits you. Then, write down this phone number. After you've taken care of your business, go to Jintong City and dial this number... The person on the other end will tell you what to do next."
After Qin Fang finished speaking, he handed over the prepared equipment to the other party and gave them a phone number.
Lu Dayong was stunned for a moment, then subconsciously took the equipment and carefully wrote down the phone number.
At that moment, the contract in front of him burst into flames.
He looked surprised and was about to ask something else, but Qin Fang smiled and said, "Alright, I look forward to seeing you next time. That's all for now."
With a flash of white light, Lu Dayong disappeared from the Upside-Down Cloud Realm.
Qin Fang smiled slightly, then looked at the next employee's profile...
"Seven epics already, 13 more to go..."
He muttered to himself...
