C24 Be Prepared to Sacrifice at Any Time

As soon as Zhao Lei finished speaking, the atmosphere in the office instantly froze. Fei Xiaoliu actually revealed a heavy expression. Fei Wu, who was hiding behind, started sobbing. Even the little black cat curled up and whimpered.

If he didn't realize that he had stepped on a thorn, he would be a fool. However, he had no idea how to deal with this situation.

"I was just casually saying. If it's not convenient to answer, then forget it." Zhao Lei quickly tried to smooth things over.

"No." Fei Xiaoliu interrupted Zhao Lei and said with a serious expression, "You're actually the team member. Since you asked, then as the captain, you don't have to hide it."

Looking at Fei Xiaoliu's firm and unwavering conviction, Zhao Lei nodded.

"The office used to be... not like this." Fei Xiaoliu choked with sobs.

"The office used to be very busy. Every day, there would be people who came here to entrust their tasks."

"At that time, Fifth Brother and I were still young and didn't have the qualifications to form a team. At that time, Big Brother was alone. Second Brother, Third Brother, and Fourth Brother formed a team with Xiaoqi. Fifth Brother and I would occasionally follow them to watch."

"I didn't expect that Xiaoqi was still an old member." Zhao Lei glanced at the black cat. The black cat seemed to understand what Zhao Lei was saying and proudly raised its head.

"Don't interrupt!" Fei Xiaoliu scolded.

Zhao Lei made a zipper gesture to indicate that he was going to shut up.

"Forget it, forget it! I'm not in the mood to talk. In any case, we might be sacrificed at any time if we enter the team. No one can be sure if the difficulty of the task is consistent with the description. If there is any danger, as the captain, I will protect you with all my might!"

Zhao Lei was a little surprised. This carefree little girl actually had such a serious moment. From her eyes, he could see that she was not lying. She was really willing to sacrifice her life to help him.

"I, Zhao Lei, really can't accept this kind of cowardly thing. Since I've joined you guys, we will live and die together!" Zhao Lei was very calm. Since he had accepted this world when the school opened, he should adapt to the rules of this world.

"I hope so." Fei Xiaoliu trusted Fei San, but that didn't mean she trusted Zhao Lei. After all, the probation period had not passed yet.

Zhao Lei knew that something tragic had happened here before, so he didn't need to argue with Fei Xiaoliu, who was in a low mood. Since Senior Brother Fei San trusted him and recommended him, he had no reason to push the blame.

"Then let's talk about the rewards and the mission." Fei Xiaoliu crossed her legs again. Her slender legs swayed, causing people to think about her.

Zhao Lei became spirited when he heard about the rewards. Money was his number one productive force. At this stage, he was in desperate need of money.

"Under normal circumstances, the greater the risk, the greater the reward. As the captain, of course, I will take 50%." Fei Xiaoliu's money-grubbing face was immediately exposed, causing the two of them and the cat to look down on her.

"I object!"

"I also... don't agree..."

"Meow, meow, meow!"

"Zhao Lei's qualifications are not enough, so his objection is invalid." Fei Xiaoliu rejected Zhao Lei.

Then, she pulled Fei Wu's arm and said coquettishly, "Fifth Brother, it's useless even if you have so much money. Anyway, you don't buy anything usually. Sister is in her puberty now, so she needs to buy makeup!"

In the end, Fei Wu compromised under Fei Xiaoliu's shamelessness.

Fei Xiaoliu finally picked up the black cat and said with an ingratiating tone, "Xiaoqi, I'll help you save your money. In the future, I'll buy you dried fish every day and buy you a female cat. If you want a Scottish Fold, you'll have to work hard."

Zhao Lei looked at Fei Xiaoliu's skillful business ability. It was obvious that this fellow was a habitual offender. Now, he was alone and had no way to overthrow Fei Xiaoliu. He could only persuade Fei Wu and the black cat to rebel if he had the chance.

"Since no one has any objections, we'll talk about the reward." Fei Xiaoliu didn't give them the chance to raise any objections and quickly said, "Next, it's time to accept the mission. I'll entrust the mission to big brother. Zhao Lei, you are already sixteen years old."

Looking at Fei Xiaoliu's malicious eyes, Zhao Lei covered his chest and said cautiously, "So what?!"

"You can take the exam to become an Exterminator at the age of sixteen. Since you can fight against Xiaoqi without being at a disadvantage, then you have the strength to be the core of the team. You can take the exam to become an Exterminatee." Fei Xiaoliu didn't know what she was scheming.

"How do I take the exam?" Zhao Lei was quite interested in this. After all, a license was definitely better than nothing. As the saying goes, "When the art is high, the egg is big." There were too many prostitutes, so it was better to have more. "It's very simple. You need to register, take the exam, and get the certificate. It will take at most twenty days." Fei Xiaoliu rubbed her hands and said with a smile, "Give me the money, and I'll arrange everything for you. I will make sure you are satisfied."

"Holy shit!" Zhao Lei knew that when Xiaoliu smiled, the God of Fortune would hang up, and his wallet would also be empty.

"I'll go by myself!" Zhao Lei rejected without even thinking about it. It was fine if his brother cheated, but he didn't even let a cat go, let alone an outsider like him.

"Humph!" Fei Xiaoliu pouted her small mouth, her face full of resentment.

"By the way, do you have a license?" Zhao Lei looked at this unreliable captain in doubt.

"Of course I do. Fifth Brother also has one." Fei Xiaoliu proudly took out a small badge from her pocket and played with it in her hand.

"Let me take a look." Just as Zhao Lei finished speaking, Fei Xiaoliu threw the badge over. Zhao Lei's hand was fast, and he caught it in his hand and carefully observed it. "Class Theory Exterminator? What does this mean? To reason with the beast? "

Zhao Lei's mind was a little muddled for a moment. Why did the class theory Exterminator fight with the beast?

"You only know how to fight! You are a reckless man!" Fei Xiaoliu snatched the badge from Zhao Lei's hand angrily.

"I am the Mental Exterminator… Sigh, to be honest, I'm also a piece of trash…" Fifth Brother self-deprecatingly mocked with a bitter smile on his face.

"Isn't mental energy very rare? How can it be useless?" How self-abased was Fei Wu? Mental energy was a recommendation system for civil servants.

"Don't comfort me. In any case, I won't be able to live past the next mission …" Fei Wu's dejectedness broke through the sky, and Zhao Lei was speechless.

"Just take it as a flag …" Seeing that Fei Wu had made a fool of himself, Zhao Lei decisively chose to shut himself up.

"Xiaoqi is a natural investigator, so our team is short of one who can fight. Hurry up and go to the exam. After you finish the exam, I'll take you to the real mission." Fei Xiaoliu hurriedly urged.

"Is there a fake mission?"

"No fake mission! It's just that the reward for the detective mission and the crusade mission are far from each other." Fei Xiaoliu was about to be angered to death by Zhao Lei's way of asking.

"Oh ~ Can you give me an example?" Zhao Lei was not sure what the reward was.

"One detective mission is worth 10,000 gold coins, but the crusade mission is worth 50,000."

"Ten thousand?" Zhao Lei was a little suspicious that he had heard wrong. He just wanted to earn some pocket money, and he would be satisfied with a few hundred yuan. Who knew that Fei Xiaoliu would give him such a bomb?

"Do you think it's too little? I didn't lie." Fei Xiaoliu looked at Zhao Lei's questioning eyes and thought that Zhao Lei thought that the reward was too little.

"No, no, no. It's okay. You can continue." Zhao Lei was getting more and more excited. He was waving his hands at him. He originally thought that he would need to save up for half a semester to buy a magic tool. He didn't expect that he would be able to get it after two missions.

"Right now, we don't have any formal combat personnel, so we can only take on detective missions. Once Zhao Lei gets the certificate, we can start work."

"I have a question. I am obviously the most important person to take on the crusade mission. Why do you get the big share of the reward?" Zhao Lei narrowed his eyes and waited for Fei Xiaoliu's reply.

"Hehehe ~ After all, I am the captain." Fei Xiaoliu did not expect Zhao Lei to say this so quickly. She had not thought of an excuse yet.

"Objection. I feel that I am more suitable to be the captain of the crusade mission. After all, I am a combat-type."

"No, I..."

"If I were to be the captain, I would take out twenty percent of the money to subsidize the investigator and assistant. If you agree, raise your hand."

Fei Wu and the black cat's eyes lit up.

"Meow ~" The black cat and Fei Wu looked at each other and immediately raised their little meat pads.

"I agree too. After all, we are going to die anyway. I want to take more money to buy a good coffin, and it would be best if it was a sliding lid..." Fei Wu also raised his hand.

"You, you, you... Zhao Lei! I want to report this to Third Brother!" Fei Xiaoliu looked aggrieved. She did not expect Fifth Brother and Xiaoqi to betray her.

Zhao Lei walked to Fei Xiaoliu's side and patted her shoulder lightly. He said arrogantly, "You're still too young."

Soon, the meeting ended happily. Zhao Lei was also chased out of the firm by Fei Xiaoliu. Before he left, he even made a face at Zhao Lei.

"Bam!" The door of the office was slammed shut by Fei Xiaoliu. This was the most humiliating day of her life.

Zhao Lei looked at the door of the detention center and shook his head helplessly. He turned around and looked at the dark and cold alley. He felt a headache coming on.

Fei Xiaoliu said that she would call him if she had a mission. However, from the looks of it, she would probably give Zhao Lei a hard time. It was better to get a license and earn a lot of money.

The dim yellow street lamps flickered intermittently. There was no one on the old street filled with fallen leaves. There was only a long shadow that accompanied Zhao Lei as he walked away alone.

"Hey, how did the interview go?" The old man who was playing chess suddenly appeared out of nowhere. He didn't even make any footsteps, scaring Zhao Lei.

"Thank you for your concern. I have been hired," Zhao Lei replied politely.

"That's good. The old men are going back. Be careful when you go home." Elder Lee patted Zhao Lei's shoulder and left with Elder Fei. His figure gradually disappeared into the dark and long street.

"Strange sir."

It was getting late. Zhao Lei saw that his phone was already ten o'clock. He quickened his pace. He didn't train today, so he could only make up for it tomorrow.

Zhao Lei also realized a problem. He could cultivate fire attribute and thunder attribute. His attack methods were too one-dimensional. It was better to cultivate thunder and fire attribute. Then, he could buy two magic tools and have two more trump cards.
