"I don't have time," Liu Nian said as she walked past her.
I really don't have time, I'm busy going to the Mysterious Shop to buy an Intermediate Job Change Certificate.
I still don't know if the Mystery Shop is still there. Going back and forth is a waste of time.
As Liu Nian disappeared from sight, Chen Ling's expression shifted slightly: "You said that Zhou Momo is very familiar with him?"
Ruan Xin answered truthfully: "As far as I know, yes."
“They all came from Wushuang City.” As if remembering something, she added.
"Really?" Chen Ling's figure was hidden in the shadows of the corridor, and Ruan Xin couldn't see her expression.
After returning to her room, Liu Nian finally had time to rest for a while.
I've been through so much today, and the contracts have drained me of all energy. My head is spinning, and all I want to do is sleep.
"Open the door! Open the door! I need to check the water meter!" Zhou Momo's loud voice came from outside the door.
"Where did the water come from?" Liu Nian opened the door helplessly and looked at Zhou Momo with eyes full of concern for someone with intellectual disabilities.
Seeing that she was thinking of coming inside to sit down, Liu Nian leaned against the door to block her from entering.
Don't come any closer!
Unfortunately, her physical condition was far too weak compared to that of a soldier. She pushed him away with one hand and then sat upright on Liu Nian's bed.
"We may be familiar with each other, but we still need to maintain proper manners," Liu Nian said helplessly, looking at her rude attitude.
A lobbyist, and a troublesome one at that!
Sure enough, after she sat down, she turned her head and asked, "Are you free tomorrow?"
"No," Liu Nian replied immediately.
"When are you free?" Zhou Momo, still not giving up, continued to ask.
"I haven't had any free time these past few days."
It's true. The plan is to go back to the mysterious shop in Wushuang City. There's no time to meddle in other people's business.
"Don't be so heartless. You'll be there for a while."
"Is there no one among you who can handle this?" Liu Nian asked before she could speak.
"We found a wild boss, and we've tried many times but haven't been able to defeat it," Zhou Momo told Liu Nian honestly.
Should I say you're brainless, or just naive?
Can you just say things like that?
"It would be pointless to add me; I really can't find the time these next few days," Liu Nian said, refusing.
My legs go weak at the mere mention of the boss, so I'd better not!
He then pulled Zhou Momo out of bed and pushed her out.
"All right"
As Liu Nian pushed her out the door, she still couldn't help but tell her, "Be careful, don't tell everyone everything."
Your brain needs regular maintenance, so it doesn't look like you've had a wrinkle-reducing injection!
"I don't need it, you're my heart's desire!" Zhou Momo blurted out without thinking, then turned and walked up the stairs without looking back, waving her hand behind her.
It feels so good to be needed, even if I'm a fool!
Liu Nian watched her retreating figure and said, "I'll try to come back as soon as possible!"
"Really?" Zhou Momo turned around excitedly and leaned against the wall at the top of the stairs, only half of her face showing.
Looking at her, who was as silly as a husky, I took back what I had just said.
"Get out!"
After a good night's sleep, Liu Nian got up before dawn the next day.
His drowsy mind started working again. The zombie horde would erupt in a few days, and three days would definitely not be enough to make it back. It seemed he would have to wait until after the horde.
I was so dizzy when I got home last night that I forgot to think about such things.
Today is the fifth day, and there are only two days left before the zombie horde arrives.
Should we go? If we go now, we can get to Wushuang City in time.
Considering the attitude of the Peerless City Lord towards the zombie horde, Liu Nian didn't really want to stay there.
Never mind, I'll just hand in the task first.
There's a quest to defeat Arudi that needs to be completed.
I wonder what kind of reward I'll get. I killed a dungeon boss that was way above my level, so it shouldn't be too shabby, right?
I left the store, hopped on my motorcycle, and sped towards the Adventurers' Hall. I'd locked the motorcycle out the door when I got back yesterday.
Along the way, many people had already gotten up and were preparing for their new adventure. Seeing the energetic appearance of the pedestrians on the road, Liu Nian sped up and drove towards the hall.
I need to work hard too!
The hall was still packed with people. When it was Liu Nian's turn, he handed over the map and the quest items together.
"Mr. Liu Nian, please follow me." This time, the customer service representative didn't give him payment directly, but instead guided Liu Nian upstairs.
There might be some paperwork required!
This was Liu Nian's first time doing this kind of task, and she thought there would be some special procedures involved.
As the customer service representative left, another customer service representative took her place.
Following the customer service representative up the stairs, Liu Nian had never been to the second floor of the lobby before.
After walking through the corridor, the customer service representative opened a door and gestured for Liu Nian to go inside.
Liu Nian didn't think much of it and went straight in.
This is a private office; there are no identification signs on the door, so it's impossible to tell who it is.
But right across from Liu Nian was an office desk, with the chair facing away from her, as if someone was sitting on it.
Behind the seat is an open window.
As Liu Nian subtly surveyed her surroundings, the person in the chair turned around.
A well-dressed but pale-faced person sat in a chair, looking as if he had been seriously ill.
"I know you're confused right now, but you should remember yesterday's dungeon, right?" the person on the other end said bluntly.
Anyone who knows I went to the dungeon yesterday?
A thought flashed through Liu Nian's mind—it couldn't be wrong.
"You're the one trapped in the dungeon."
"Haha, young man, you are indeed quick-witted. Yes, it is me."
"Thank you for saving me. I feel I should express my gratitude in person."
"Oh, right. I forgot to mention, I'm Rhys, nice to meet you."
“Harold, you’ve come at the right time. This young friend is the one who saved me.”
After shaking hands with Liu Nian, Rhys addressed the person who entered.
I didn't hear how this person got in at all; he's a pro.
Liu Nian looked at the newcomer, who was wearing a top hat, a black suit with a pocket watch clipped to it, and a gentleman's cane in his hand.
"It's a pleasure to meet you, the branch manager of the Adventure Hall of the World Association!"
Chatting with NPCs was a first for me.
After the three talked for a while, Liu Nian mainly listened, from how they met to the accident that Rhys encountered.
“By the way, we’ve calculated Mr. Liu Nian’s compensation.” Harold adjusted his monocle.
Finally, the main course has arrived!
Liu Nian got excited. What would they give her?
"This rescue mission will earn you 100 adventure points and 500 crowns."
That's it?
"Ahem, there are two options now."
"Firstly, an intermediate-level job transfer certificate."
"Secondly, there are all the third-tier skill books for each profession."
That's more like it! After working ourselves to the bone, all we get is that little bit of work.
Adults never make choices; I want it all! Is that okay?
Of course, this is just wishful thinking!
Liu Nian directly chose the first option.
Harold and Reese exchanged a smile.
Harold took a card out of his jacket pocket and handed it to Liu Nian.
[Intermediate Job Change Certificate]
It's absolutely true; the sudden job change issue was resolved just like that.
Life is unpredictable!
