Chapter 082 Low-level School Worker
Poison Spider, 34 years old, female, single.
Superpower - lv3 (2) - Long-range Calibration (Potential Rating: Low). Previously active as a lone wolf assassin in the No Man's Land.
Position: Junior Janitor (D)
Tsk, a mere D-rank is worthy of my life! My salary is only 300 contribution points a month, are you trying to starve me to death?
Poison Spider threw away his employee badge and picked up the kettle to drink water.
She has been trapped inside the church for more than a month since she was arrested by the rejection squad.
For many homeless people in the Borderland, being able to enter Taoli University, which is affiliated with the Church of Light, is like a step to heaven.
Not to mention the main campus, even if they were allowed to set up a shack outside the school, they would not be able to be driven away.
Who wouldn't want to find a big tree to sit under and enjoy the shade these days? The wild is simply not a place for people to live.
But Poison Spider is not a homeless person who lives from hand to mouth. After all, she is a well-known super-powered person in the underworld.
Although the days I led were more dangerous than those of homelessness, they were free and profitable. If I was lucky, a single shift could earn me enough for a year and a half, or I could live a life of luxury in a special hotel in the no-man's land for a month.
Yes, she doesn't meet the Church's requirements for a "human elite," but what does a low-level janitor mean? Pure consumables!
Poison Spider is not a fool who has just started out. She knows that all large organizations have a large number of low-level members, and those low-level members always need to bear the greatest risks, do the hardest work, enjoy the worst treatment, and get the least money.
If it were any other organization, she would have just walked away, but the Church of Light was no pushover.
She is already under arrest, if she is discovered and tries to escape~ "Bang bang"!
After shooting the bullet, they didn't even bother to register, and just threw the body into the laboratory and sent it to the assistant for autopsy, and it would appear in the students' classroom the next day.
"Fuck."
The poisonous spider spat, and she sat in the dark corner of the room, her legs in the same posture as before, ready to escape at any time.
After all, this room is the gathering place for the freshman team, so it is not too small overall.
The church invests generously in human elites. Each batch of newcomers can form a team in the first year, get used to each other, and then take on various subsidized tasks on the platform.
A two-bedroom apartment like this, 50 square meters in size and equipped with a suppression light, would cost at least 1 million universal coins in No Man's Land, and it doesn't come with external security.
This kind of room that can be used as a safe house is a gathering point within the school that outstanding students can apply for freely. It is really enviable.
However... a vicious look flashed in the poisonous spider's eyes.
She looked up at the door, thinking to herself: "Do you really think I'll just accept my fate?" Haha, big organizations like this just take things for granted.
Rather than being a dog for the Glorious Church, it is better to turn to a more generous existence.
The poisonous spider raised the corner of his lips proudly: I am really lucky, I can actually get the favor of God!
The Dark Spider Mother, also known as the Dark Spider Queen - a true god of the abyss.
Beings like Him are inherently reserved and rarely skip priests and groups of believers to accept the faith of an outsider.
But who knows what happened along the way? Perhaps it was fate brought about by the name? A while ago, when Poison Spider was routinely cursing the Church of Light at the Abyss, he suddenly connected with this great being.
The Dark Spider Queen is a very special deity.
Poison Spider couldn't help but think so, because other abyss gods often ordered their believers to continuously hand over human souls, at least to squeeze out a large amount of emotions in order to strengthen their own existence.
However, the Dark Spider Queen was very quiet and did not urge her believers to offer sacrifices.
Because he couldn't get clear instructions from the Spider Queen, the poisonous spider had to go to the library to collect some brief information by himself.
According to A Brief History of Paganism, although the Dark Spider Queen absorbs human souls like other gods, her favorite sacrifices are abnormalities, the stronger the better.
What a great God! He is looking forward to a war between gods!
The poisonous spider's unconventional heart was immediately moved by Him, and it wanted to kill a hundred anomalies on the spot to please the god.
Of course, anomalies are not so easy to kill.
So her plan at this stage is very clear: blend in with the student group, identify valuable individuals from among them, find an opportunity to lure them out of the school, and then present them to the Dark Spider Queen.
The first step has been completed.
Poison Spider was, after all, a Level 3 psychic with ample mission experience. Unlike the other consumable-level school workers who lived a life of idleness, risking their lives for a sliver of survival, she quickly secured the lucrative position of a guide.
There are many types of guides, and the one she does is the simplest one: joining a team of students and going on adventures with them.
During the adventure, the school worker guide needs to walk in front of the students to lead the way. If any abnormality occurs, he can be the first to run away or the first to die.
Haha, the next step is very simple.
What's so scary about being a freshman? You lucky guy with amazing talent, don't even think about seeing through the disguise under my mask. I will kill you with your innocence and simplicity.
It doesn't matter even if you are not innocent. As an assassin, I swear that I will never let a single prey go.
Ta-da, ta-da.
Judging from the footsteps, there were three girls, and they were all small in stature.
There were two people inside, only about 160cm tall... What was the gait of the one in the middle, near the front? He sounded frivolous, not at all defensive.
Poison Spider squinted her eyes and focused her senses on her ears because she heard a voice that sounded a little familiar.
"...What's Miss Polaris's name?"
The girl's voice echoed crisply in the air. "Professor Ding spoke too quickly this time. I'll definitely find a chance to refute him next time. Tell him not to make such a vicious joke."
"I don't think it's malicious. Isn't Polaris a good star?"
"Well, North Star suits you very well."
"Don't do this..."
This sound, this peculiar, light voice and footsteps, could it be...!
Before the sliding door opened, the poisonous spider flew as fast as it could and hid beside the cabinet.
Damn it! There's no dead space in this broken room. I can't get my legs in.
The folding door swung open, and the black-haired girl in memory - the target person Chen Xiao'er walked in with a wry smile on her face.
She was still in that completely defenseless posture. Only the poisonous spider who had carried out assassination missions knew how arrogant and tempting that was.
"Eh? You are..."
The moment their eyes met, Poison Spider got goosebumps all over his body.
Her brain was working at high speed, calculating how many trump cards she would have to use in order to escape from the siege of three elite soldiers.
No, there's no escape.
Even if I use poison to knock down Chen Xiao'er, use my fists and feet to knock down the physical bodyguards around her, and then use luck to defeat the super-powered person with unknown abilities, the school security will not let me go.
The poisonous spider's shoulders slowly relaxed.
Ultimately, I was unlucky. The first student I met was Chen Xiao'er. I'm really fed up with it.
She lowered her eyes, waiting for Chen Xiao'er to sneer or make further insults.
After all, this is how the world is. The strong get everything, and the weak have no right to survive. As long as I can survive, sooner or later there will be a chance of turning things around.
"Ma'am, I didn't expect you to work at Taoli University as well."
Chen Xiao'e placed her handbag on the coffee table with a smile. "Last time we were on the train, there was a terrorist attack. I'm so glad you're okay."
What did she mean by this? Venomous Spider came out from behind the cabinet with high alert.
Chen Xiao'er's acting was too flawless, so she had to look at the other two students, trying to detect something wrong from their expressions.
I understand, you must have hidden weapons on you, and I will be beaten up if I let my guard down for even a moment!
…
I didn't expect to see someone familiar in the club room.
Chen Xiao'er was just saying hello in passing, and to be honest, there was a bit of a dispute on the train at that time.
But firstly, after something as serious as the terrorist attack, I wasn't in the mood to dwell on that little festivity. Secondly, the employee badge on the desk said "low-level janitor."
This is quite reassuring, at least I haven't offended another full professor.
Xiao'er walked around the room.
There are bookshelves and a small refrigerator on the left, a large wardrobe and a computer desk on the right, and a very small storage room at the innermost part, where you need to kneel on the ground and push the coffee table away to use it.
The furnishings in the middle resembled those in anime and manga: a wraparound fabric sofa and a wooden coffee table, along with a full range of daily necessities like a kettle and hand soap.
She checked around and found that there was no damage to the furniture, the walls were clean, and there were no black footprints left by her predecessors.
Chen Xiao'er stood up and sought the opinions of her roommates: "I think this place is pretty good. Why don't we apply for this one?"
"I agree~" Lin Lang sat down on the fabric sofa carelessly, with his body facing the poisonous spider.
Zheng Lu thought for a moment and nodded slightly. "The sizes of the various club centers are similar. Subsequent furniture and subsidies will depend on everyone's hard work. Let's use this as a base until the club upgrades."
"good."
Chen Xiao'er extended her hand toward the venomous spider: "Ma'am, please give me an application form. I'll take it to the registration office later. Thank you~"
She didn't want to ignore the other party's address, but the lady's name on her employee card was [Poison Spider], which was really strange.
Many people on Red Star do not follow the rule of surname plus given name. Not only do some people add a lot of suffixes before or after their names, but some people also directly name themselves after the scientific names of objects and animals.
For example, there is a classmate whose real name is Curry, and there are also classmates in Changhe No. 12 Middle School whose names are "Sheep Horns" or "Live On", which is considered part of social customs.
"…Give."
Poison Spider leaned sideways and handed the application form over, tensing his muscles. If this little guy dared to take the opportunity to slap me, I would definitely slap him back immediately!
"Thanks."
Chen Xiao'er took the application form and took a look. It listed some very common regulations, such as not damaging public property and keeping the interior of the department clean, especially the walls and doors.
It also states that students can apply for subsidies in the name of club activities, but the remuneration and items obtained from the activities must be submitted to the school first, and then returned or given reasonable compensation after screening.
She flipped through the accompanying brochure, which said that each activity room would be equipped with a guide.
The guides are locals who are familiar with the route and can help students save time finding their way during club activities.
Ms. Poison Spider must be our guide.
This lady seems normal now, so it's not polite to ask for a replacement. If things really don't work out in the future, I can privately contact the school to ask for a replacement.
Chen Xiao'er made up her mind silently. She asked in a friendly manner, "Ma'am, our class is going out for a big cleaning tomorrow. Could you please lead the way?"
tomorrow?
The poisonous spider looked at the girl's clear eyes and had an idea.
"What a great opportunity! If I can present such a special psychic to the Dark Spider Queen, she will surely be very pleased."
"It's convenient, of course it's convenient!" She forced an attentive smile on her face and rubbed her fingers vigorously.
It's a godsend for a large force to go out together. It's so easy to create chaos.
I can lure her out and sacrifice her first, then ask the Spider Queen to grant me the blessing of [Concealment], and then escape in the chaos!
"Hey, what are you looking at?"
Snap! A force pushed from behind, and a hand slapped the back of her neck. The poisonous spider turned abruptly, and the hidden poison-tipped steel needle instantly slid to her fingertips.
She thought she would see a sword, but after dodging left and right, she realized that nothing was happening.
Zheng Lu put her hands on her hips and stared at Du Zhu's face with a bit of dissatisfaction. She looked at her like she was crazy and said, "Hey, what are you doing? Were you looking at Xiao Ai's chest just now?"
This question confused the poisonous spider and he shook his head subconsciously.
After the shaking was over, I realized that I had actually seen something, but it was the heart.
She didn't want to fall out with them, so she quickly apologized with a smile: "Sorry, my eyes just itched."
Seeing Zheng Lu wanted to say something, Chen Xiao'er quickly took her hand and walked out. "It's okay, let's go first. Bye."
The three girls' backs quickly disappeared behind the door.
"snort."
The poisonous spider straightened up and slowly clenched his fists: I won't let you show off for one more day, and tomorrow, you will die the way I want you to!
…
Chen Xiao'er walked all the way to the pavilion before slowing down and asking softly, "Lulu, were you deliberately trying to embarrass her just now?"
Because of a past dispute, she has always been on the lookout for poisonous spiders.
She saw that strange look, but it wasn't "chest-staring" at all. Zheng Lu was quiet and gentle, and she wouldn't deliberately start an argument without a reason.
"Is there?"
Zheng Lu smiled innocently. "I'm not that boring. Maybe my tone just now wasn't very nice and you misunderstood me. I'm sorry."
"Like this~"
Chen Xiao'er's thoughts flashed through her mind. It seemed that there was nothing to worry about here, so she became cheerful again and walked forward with her roommates.
Lin Lang turned his head and looked at Zheng Lu deeply.
Zheng Lu smiled back and clenched a strand of long hair in her hand.
