Qianyu District, a high-end residential building.
Several people stood outside the closed wall, looking at the luxuriously decorated mansion that was brightly lit in the night, with different expressions on their faces.
"Magic Rabbit...what does your family do?" Bao Feng glanced at the smiling Xu Xianxian beside him and couldn't help but ask in a low voice, "A mansion like this isn't something that ordinary people can afford."
She runs a small bar in a remote area, so it cannot be said that she is poor, but she also knows that with her income, she cannot afford a luxury house in such a luxurious commercial district.
"It's just running a company, not worth mentioning." Xu Xianxian looked at the three people who were somewhat stunned and found it a little funny. "You are all awakened now, do you still value money so much?"
These people's strength is almost approaching that of legendary creatures, and is still expanding every moment, yet their mentality is surprisingly the same as that of ordinary humans.
"Even if I awaken my power, money isn't easy to come by." Chen Ao suppressed the shock on his face and shook his head. "Besides, I won't do anything illegal or immoral just for the sake of wealth. This is a matter of principle."
Every profession has its own expertise. Saving the world and starting a company to make money are two different fields.
Of course, if one is powerful enough, there are countless shortcuts to making money quickly, such as controlling the rich through hypnosis, withdrawing money from the bank remotely, or even directly ruling the city by force, and so on.
But Chen Ao's current mentality was extremely noble and righteous, in other words, a saint, and he would never do such a thing. Under the premise of saving the world, he didn't even bother to pursue personal grudges, let alone anything else.
"Won't the Executive Department issue some high-paying missions? And for us right now, they're not that difficult." Xu Xianxian showed a slightly thoughtful expression and suggested, "With your abilities, take on a few more high-paying missions. You won't be short of money."
These awakened people are also interesting. They have all the power but have not changed their mindset. It may be that they have been awakened for too short a time and have not truly experienced the power of life and death, so they are still ordinary citizens at heart.
Strength can be given, but personal experience cannot be given by others.
It can be said that Chen Ao and others are newcomers with little experience. Any low-level martial artist has more experience than these awakened ones.
"Those demigods...letting a bunch of newbies serve as spokespeople, is that really a good idea?"
Xu Xianxian was a little suspicious about the reason behind this, wondering if there was any hidden meaning.
Having experienced Force users or martial artists as spokespeople can obviously improve efficiency and success rate, but why are these ordinary humans chosen?
Is it because ordinary humans have too little knowledge and experience that makes it easier to control?
"I heard that if you complete a high-difficulty pioneering mission and explore one or two ruins, you can directly become a wealthy person."
Storm blinked, eager to try. Using his current strength to explore ancient ruins and dig out treasures from the past would surely make more money than opening a small bar.
"We'll have to wait until the current crisis is resolved before we have time to do these things."
Chen Ao remained unmoved. He glanced at Feng Bao and the Demon Rabbit, with a hint of dissatisfaction in his eyes.
It was obvious that these two women were here to cause trouble. They had no sense of crisis, nor any sense of responsibility as awakened beings. He really didn't want to join forces with such people, but now he had no choice.
Only by uniting all the living forces that can be united can we fight against the evil demon deep underground who wants to destroy the world.
Hai'an, standing next to him, remained silent, only feeling a sense of inferiority for no apparent reason after seeing how wealthy the Devil Rabbit was. Not to mention the atmosphere, which was full of the flavor of modern life, was poison to a typical fat otaku.
"Yes, I know." Xu Xianxian nodded, her smile extremely charming. She took out a smart key from her bag and directly opened the mechanical door of the mansion. "It's so late today. For safety reasons, everyone should rest at my house. We will go to investigate the monster's lair tomorrow morning."
After having dinner at a restaurant in the commercial district, she suggested that these awakened people come to her house, on the grounds that they should be gathered together to avoid being defeated one by one.
The reason was so simple and clear that even Chen Ao didn't say much.
After all, it is better to be safe than sorry.
"I..."
"Okay, let's go in first!"
Xu Xianxian was the first to go inside, followed closely by Fengbao, while the fat guy 'Hai' was a little hesitant. This was his first time entering a girl's home, even with so many people together. But when he was about to say something, he was dragged in by Chen Ao.
......
Outside Luogong City, there is a radioactive landfill.
Under the night sky, Bai Shiying stood in front of a scrapped metal warship, with extremely complex emotions flashing in her pure white eyes.
"Sure enough, not only trolls, but even goblins have infiltrated." The white-haired girl stroked the remains of the strange warship, her fingers stained with polluted dust. She felt the dormant energy within and said in a deep voice, "I'm afraid that Luogong City is now secretly controlled by goblins."
Not long after she escaped from the Energy Hall, the shocking troll aura completely dissipated, and Governor Lin Chen could no longer be contacted, but the city's defense matrix was still operating normally.
With Bai Shiying's sensitivity, she naturally noticed something was wrong, but she didn't dare to go back.
If her guess is true, there is more than one alien race fighting for the Energy Hall, and it may be a fight between many different monsters.
