"Sis, you're not kidding me, are you?"
"He thinks he can beat me? I'm a top fifty fighter on the power ranking!"
"If he can beat me, I'll give him a chance to pursue me."
Luo Qingcheng left, speechless at how her younger sister had managed to make her so.
Achoo!
On the other side, Lu Yuan sneezed not long after he left.
Lu Yuan rubbed his nose:
"I hope no one is going to yell at me!"
And sure enough, this statement immediately won everyone's approval.
"Brother Yuan, I bet someone's cursing at you, and it's that little slut cursing at you!"
"She's lucky to have been born into the Luo family. If she were from an ordinary family, she would have died eight hundred times over."
Zhao Qiang rarely speaks, and when he does, people usually disagree. But this one sentence is the only one that everyone agrees with.
"Yuehan, I heard there's a refugee camp in the northern part of the city. Where is it?"
Gong Yuehan was taken aback:
"Brother Yuan, what are you doing at the refugee camp?"
Lu Yuan explained:
"We often have to do tasks, and we always need two people to help us watch the house. Let's see if there are any suitable people."
"If so, recruit two."
Whether it's a refugee camp or a refugee area, it's basically a gathering place for people who haven't awakened as Spirit Masters.
Generally, as long as one person in a family awakens the Spirit Master profession, their conditions will improve, and they will be able to move out of the refugee camp.
Just like Lu Yuan before, if his ex-girlfriend hadn't been a spirit master, he would have been living in a refugee camp as well.
Therefore, Lu Yuan really has to thank Zhang Qian sometimes. If it weren't for Zhang Qian, he would never have been able to obtain the Divine Beast Compendium.
If Zhang Qian hadn't tried to gouge out his eyes, Lu Yuan most likely wouldn't have killed her.
Honestly, Zhang Qian didn't owe Lu Yuan anything.
"Damn, it stinks."
"Qiangzi, it stinks even more than your stinky socks!"
"Brother Yuan, maybe we shouldn't go in."
Lin Feng is right.
As soon as they entered the refugee camp, a stench like that of dead fish hit them.
"If you can't stand it, you can go back first."
Hearing Lu Yuan's words, Lin Feng pursed his lips and covered his nose with his hand, but he did not leave.
This place is similar to the refugee camps in Wan Gang, characterized mainly by its filth and disorder.
Some women who considered themselves attractive dressed provocatively stood on the walls on both sides of the street, engaging in prostitution.
They were not born inferior; it was mainly due to the pressures of life.
They might work all day and not even be able to afford a proper meal.
However, Lu Yuan did not extend a helping hand. Although he had a compassionate heart, he did not have the power of a saint.
Perhaps in the future, when he becomes stronger, he might be able to change things, but for now, Lu Yuan is powerless to do anything about it.
"Brother Yuan, there's a real estate agent up ahead, should we go in and take a look?"
Just as Lu Yuan was thinking about something, Gong Yuehan pointed to a fairly decent store in front of them.
Above the store was a signboard with the four large characters "(Human Slave Resources)".
Lu Yuan frowned. The order has collapsed to this extent?
They blatantly equated people with slaves.
Gong Yuehan seemed to see through Lu Yuan's thoughts, and then explained:
"As you know, this is the apocalypse, and ordinary people have a very low social status."
"If no one in the family awakens a Spirit Master, then life becomes a problem."
"Women are a little better off; at least they can survive by selling their bodies."
"Men can find ways to do manual labor, but it's much more difficult for the elderly and children."
"In many ways, these people are worse off than slaves. At least slaves can eat and won't starve, but these people..."
Gong Yuehan stopped talking after saying that.
Of course, there's no need to say more.
After all, everyone knows this principle.
"Brother Yuan, why don't we help them?"
There is no one else but Zhao Qiang who could say such a thing.
Lu Yuan rolled his eyes at this guy:
"Help? How can we help?"
“I’m not a saint. Besides, there are hundreds of thousands of people in this settlement, and this refugee camp alone probably has at least a hundred thousand or two hundred thousand.”
Do you think I have that ability?
As they were talking, the group arrived at the so-called intermediary company.
It's actually just a two-storey area, with many people waiting to be chosen and get a job.
As soon as Lu Yuan and his group entered, these people swarmed around them like flies to dung.
Although the wording isn't quite right, it's absolutely vivid!
"Master, Madam, Miss, please choose me. I can do anything."
"Please choose me! Besides doing housework, I can also warm your bed!"
"Choose me, all I need is to be able to eat my fill!"
In an instant, dozens of people surrounded Lu Yuan and his group, all looking at them with longing eyes.
Everyone hopes that they will be lucky enough to be chosen.
"Make way, everyone! Quiet down! Anyone who doesn't listen won't be allowed in anymore."
Just as Lu Yuan was at a loss for what to do, a woman's voice rang out.
Then the people really quieted down and voluntarily made way for them.
Lu Yuan glanced over and saw a woman in her forties, who looked like a fat pig, walking over with two henchmen.
Lu Yuan guessed that this person was very likely the proprietress of the place.
"Gentlemen, is there anything I can do for you?"
"We have all sorts of people here, managers, cooks, and..."
"Anyway, there's nothing we can't provide if you can't think of it."
Lu Yuan wasn't very interested in the landlady's boasting.
"I need a housekeeper and a cook."
Lu Yuan revealed the purpose of his visit.
Yes, yes, yes!
“We have top chefs here, who used to be head chefs in five-star hotels.”
"If you like Western food, we have a chef who can cook Western food. As for a butler, we have a CEO who has returned from overseas."
"The management is top-notch, and it's not expensive either; it only requires a one-soul-crystal intermediary fee."
"What do you think?"
The proprietress introduced the resources in her hands as if they were her most treasured possessions.
Before Lu Yuan could speak, the crowd started making a ruckus again.
One by one, they eagerly recommended themselves.
Lu Yuan looked around and just then saw a woman and an elderly man in his sixties or seventies on the outermost edge.
The two tried to squeeze in, but because of their advanced age, and because the woman was clearly weak, they couldn't.
So they could only watch pitifully from outside the crowd.
"I want both of them!"
Lu Yuan pointed directly to the man and woman on the outermost edge, namely the old man and the young man.
Upon hearing this, everyone turned to look at the couple, their eyes filled with envy and jealousy.
The real estate agency owner was overjoyed.
It doesn't matter who you choose; what matters is that you've got two Soul Crystals.
"OK."
"Please have a seat, everyone. I'll go get the contracts and explain things to them."
After saying that, the proprietress swayed her waist like a bucket and left.
