May you be happy and prosperous

After picking the fruit of the egg tree, Lu Twelve and JAY originally wanted to leave Area C of the ancient battlefield before dark, to hand in the task at the place agreed with the task entrusting person, and then find a clean hotel to take a good rest and wash up by the way Filling their stomachs—unexpectedly, when they walked all the way back to the vicinity of the battleship ruins, Lu Twelve suddenly stopped, and frowned slightly to indicate that the feeling of being stared at before appeared again.

"How is it possible?" After hearing Lu Twelve's words, JAY, who didn't dare to laugh at his "girly heart" this time, immediately looked around nervously, "That wild Eudemons is back? Brother Cai took it from that place yesterday. Throw it from a high altitude and still not die?"

Lu Twelve snorted and said, "If you fall, you will die? Do you think your Brother Cai is a superman?"

At this time, the man walking next to the black-haired young man heard his mocking "Brother Cai", but he was not unhappy, but his eyes lit up, as if he liked him calling himself that, he lifted his eyes easily. The other side had already grasped the hands of two heavy backpacks, and gently touched his master's head.

Lu Twelve patted his intimate paws away, and said without looking back: "Do you think that wild Eudemons are actually tofu, and they just fell to death? Just now we were on the way to the forest park. I saw a streak of blood, the phantom beast was injured, but it was still alive."

"..."

Hearing the black-haired young man's words, Fa Cai was stunned for a moment, and then showed a dazed expression, as if he thought that the beast had been killed by him just a second ago, but now he suddenly realized that he followed suit. Frowning, his feet moved a little, and then he stood firmly beside the black-haired young man like a hill—he looked around, and finally his eyes fixed on the ruins of the movie theater they had just walked out of.

"..."

"Fat Choi, what are you looking at?" Lu Twelve leaned over with his head poking around.

The man shook his head, paused again, then let go of Lu Twelve's hand, raised his finger slightly and flicked at the shadow——

Before Lu Twelve could realize what he was doing, he suddenly saw a flame burst out of nowhere in the movie theater!

Lu Twelve was wondering why there was a burst of will-o'-the-wisps out of thin air, but before he could ask, he heard a burst of footsteps, like someone running barefoot on the ground. Lu Twelve blinked, and then saw A naked, silver-haired man with a frightened face limped out of the shadow of the movie theater, naked with only a burning apron on his waist!

One second before this person appeared in sight, Fa Cai had already turned back into the form of a juvenile phantom beast. Now squatting beside the black-haired young man, his big round golden pupils stared at the silver-haired naked man without blinking. The thing swinging in the wind between the man's legs, after a while, it seemed to twist its head away contemptuously, sneezed softly, and sprayed a thin stream from the mouth with two pointed baby teeth. thin flame.

Silver-haired naked man: "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

Get rich with dirty methods and sneak attacks: "..."

Amid the bustling sound of scattered footsteps, the naked silver-haired man didn't care that there were two of his kind silently staring at him not far away, and two phantom beasts also silently staring at him. At this moment, his beautiful His face was twisted into a ball, while he was frowning and cursing, he generously untied the tattered cloth around his waist and beat the burning flames on the ground—when the rag that originally reached his knees The edges were scorched black, from the length of the "knee-length skirt" to the length of the "skirt-to-the-skirt", he finally stopped his flapping movements, as if he just realized that there are people watching him walking birds As if, he turned around, held the rag in his hand, put his hands on his hips, and said in a loud voice, "Hey, those two over there, are you the phantom beast who came to save me?" Staff?"

A Tuo Lu Twelve: "..."

Another pile of JAY: "..."

His eyes started from the messy long silver hair, followed the pale skin of the silver-haired naked man, and finally stopped at the thing of no small size sleeping peacefully between his legs—— This kid actually even has silver hair there!

Lu Twelve, who seemed to have discovered something novel, widened his eyes slightly, but at this moment, Fa Cai, who had been squatting at his feet, suddenly yelled, and quickly jumped onto his head. The tail drooped down and hooked slightly, easily covering his pair of shiny moves: don't show.

With a sore face, Lu Twelve pulled away the furry tail that was blocking his eyes.

Fa Cai "meow meow" twice, stepped on his master's head twice, and then his two fat paws fell down again, this time, the soft pads pressed against his eyelids: don't show it!

Lu Twelve continued to push away the two paws covering his eyes with a painful face.

Fa Cai let out a displeased "Aww", and Fat Paw mercilessly slapped his master on the forehead.

But at this moment, seeing the two phantom beast workers standing in place with messy faces in the wind without saying a word, the silver-haired naked man didn't seem to care, he first stared at the black-haired young man who was squatting on the head The seemingly innocent juvenile Eudemons watched for a while, and when he was sure that the other party had no desire to look at him at all, even if he didn't even think about it with a flash from the corner of his eye, his eyes sank slightly.

However, before the others noticed anything unusual, the gloomy mood quickly disappeared from this pretty face.

He resumed his previous arrogant appearance, crossed his hips, and said impatiently to Lu Twelve and JAY: "You guys had better come to save me, although it's a little late, but it's not too late—— Barely still within the forgivable range... At least I haven't been starved to death or eaten by strange creatures. My companions are all dead, and I'm the only one left. That wild phantom beast is so powerful and strong, No matter how hard I struggle it won't-"

Lu Twelve: "...what if you don't want to?"

The silver-haired naked man paused, and said blankly: "Let me escape from its claws?"

Lu Twelve: "...Although it's okay to say that, but I always feel that this line is weird...? JAY?"

JAY: "You put on your bib first and then talk, okay, it's really hard for me to listen to you if you do this—"

As if he just realized that there was another human being present at the scene, the silver-haired naked man turned his gaze to JAY. At the same time, his tall nose sniffed, as if smelling the air from this demanding man. The smell... the same as the canned food coming from his body, it is concluded that he has dug up the canned food and there is nothing left, which caused the naked man to show a disdainful expression again, and said in a surprising way: "Why do I listen to this?" your?"

JAY: "I don't know why, I want to hit someone."

Lu Twelve: "Calm down."

After a few minutes.

While checking the ID card in his hand, Lu Twelve raised his head and tried to match the photo in the ID card with the beautiful silver-haired young man in front of him who was wearing a short skirt, folded his arms and looked down at him from a high position—— Judging from the proud raised chin, it's not wrong that they are alone, but...

I always feel that this person looks familiar.

The name seems to have been seen somewhere.

Lu Twelve thought about it for a long time, and when he looked at the pair of silver pupils of the other party, under the flickering of those beautiful pupils, for some reason, he unexpectedly had a kind of "This is really an illusion, I really don't know him" A strange idea entered his mind... So Lu Twelve was silent for a moment, and frowned slightly: "Your name is Byron?"

"Don't you know how to read?" The silver-haired naked man was taken aback, let go of the hand holding his arm, and showed a sympathetic expression, "It's so pitiful, he looks so gentle, I didn't expect him to be illiterate."

Lu Twelve: "..."

As if he didn't see the expression on the face of the black-haired young man in front of him, Byron said to himself, "My name is Byron. Retired and changed jobs to become a Phantom Beast worker, the photo on the ID card in your hand is the photo of me when I was in the military—isn’t it handsome?”

Lu Twelve pretended that he didn't hear his last question. At this time, JAY moved up behind Lu Twelve to take a look at the photo, frowned slightly, and said hesitantly, "I don't think I've seen this military uniform before. uniform……"

"Oh, my special secret force, of course it's not visible to ordinary people—"

Byron looked at JAY expressionlessly and said that he mercilessly classified JAY into the ranks of "ordinary people", although what he said was correct... But JAY still felt his chest twitch, as if he felt a mouthful of blood is pouring from the heart to the throat—

At this time, Lu Twelve, who was standing beside him, was also looking at him curiously. After seeing the distorted expression on JAY's face, he relaxed again, as if reluctantly believing in this guy named "Byron" the words said.

Byron, who was unaware of this, continued to ramble——

"To tell you the truth, I'm usually pretty good, and I'm also a phantom beast worker who can receive missions in the blue area. It shouldn't be a problem to hit the two of you alone...but the wild phantom beast this time is too powerful. , none of us can beat him, my phantom beast is dead, and my companion is also dead. I tried to hide and survive until today, but my foot was injured and there was no food. I was so hungry. You finally came here before starving to death, otherwise you might never see me again."

"...I won't see you again," Lu Twelve rubbed the tip of his nose and said vaguely, "It doesn't sound like a bad thing."

"what?"

"It's nothing." Lu Twelve paused, "Why do you keep praising the wild phantom beast that killed your companion, and still look excited—"

"I'm not excited. If I get excited, it won't be as long as it is now." Byron waved his hand nonchalantly, then raised his hand, and poked the photo on the ID card in the silent opponent's hand with his slender fingertips. He looked very happy and asked, "This is my previous photo, you haven't answered me just now, how is it, handsome or not?"

handsome?

Fa Cai, who was squatting on the black-haired young man's head, heard the words, and yawned again, showing a disdainful expression.

That small movement caught Byron's attention. He first raised his jaw slightly, and looked at the young phantom beast with golden eyes squatting on top of the black-haired young man's head for a moment, then smiled and reached out to touch it. Touched its head: "Oh, what a cute kitty."

Kitten gets rich: "..."

Byron's eyes were smiling like a playful silver moon: "I don't know how ferocious and cruel I will be when I grow up, and my personality will probably become very bad."

Lu Twelve: "..."

Thank you so much for your childhood message... Before his own phantom beast opened its mouth to bite someone, Lu Twelve grabbed it off the head and helped him escape Byron's clutches—for this person who offended everyone as soon as he appeared on the stage... He has nothing to say to the person who has never let go of even the Eudemons, but thinking that if finding the missing person before is one of the additional reward items belonging to the mission, Lu Twelve did not refuse to bring this person named Bai Lun's silver-haired young man even kindly took out a pair of extra pants from his bag for him to wear.

Byron: "What is this?"

Lu Twelve: "Pants."

Byron: "Do you still wear shorts in autumn?"

Lu Twelfth: "Do you want to be happy because the other leg is also lame?"

Byron, who was threatened, didn't seem to think that the black-haired young man in front of him could pose any threat to him. He held the trousers he just took over, and hesitated for a while staring at the style of the trousers. So really, I ran around in a rag, and finally managed to put on the trousers -- but the surprise was that although he looked slender, he was actually very strong. Lu Twelve's trousers were worn on him. It looks like tight cropped trousers. The trousers are a relatively high-waisted style, so the hip bone can't be zipped up at all, and can only be barely opened to reveal a flat belly. It took Byron a lot of effort to get it I squeezed into my pants, touched my tight butt that was about to be crushed back and forth, thought for a long time, and finally fixed my gaze on my exposed big calf, and paused.

A few seconds later, he raised his head, and his silver-gray pupils looked generously at the black-haired young man who was looking at him with embarrassment at the moment. After thinking for a while, he asked curiously and sincerely: " How do you have such short legs?"

Lu Twelve: "...I don't know why, I want to hit someone."

JAY: "Calm down."

……

The two Phantom Beast staff who suffered from all kinds of accidents and were about to turn in the task were finally mentally attacked by a strange flower that fell from the sky. They almost escaped and left the area C of the ancient battlefield. Handing over the plague virus to the staff of the nearby population registration site, the two of them almost ignored his kind invitation of "you are such a nice person, do you want to contact me later", and fled the population registration station like shit.

Because the coolie got rich and changed back to the phantom beast form, the work of carrying the backpack fell back on the shoulders of Lu Shier and JAY.

JAY: "I feel like I'm going to be a few millimeters shorter."

Lu Twelve: "Shut up."

Then there was another non-stop rush, and I rushed to the task entruster, selected the smallest egg tree fruit from the bag for a long time, and handed it over——Watching helplessly as the task entruster, Dr. C will An email confirming the completion of the task was sent to the Phantom Beast Staff Guild. Lu Twelve heaved a sigh of relief, thanked him softly, and was about to turn around and leave, but before he could take a step, he was grabbed by JAY.

Lu Twelve: "?"

Curiously glanced at JAY, the black-haired young man unexpectedly found that although he was very tired, he was eager to have a good meal and rest, but seeing a happy life in front of him, the man with a peaked cap on his head The Eudemons God left in no hurry—he pulled a bench and sat down opposite the puzzled Dr. C.

JAY put on an unprecedented serious face and said: "Doctor, do you know that there is a suspected second-generation or even the first-generation Phantom Beast operating in the surrounding area in Area C of the ancient battlefield?"

Lu Twelve was taken aback: "Huh?"

JAY said without looking back: "I didn't ask you again, 'ah' shit."

Lu Twelve: "..."

What the fuck?

JAY who left the ancient battlefield area, and the JAY who walked around the empty office building yelling "what a big hole" are like schizophrenia.

"What did you say?" At this time, Dr. C, who was the entrusting task, also showed a surprised expression at JAY's words, "How is it possible? I checked, and there is no sign of life activity in that area—"

"Did you check it? Very good," JAY nodded seriously again, "This means that there is a problem on the task entrusting side - wrongly assessing the level of the task itself... If it wasn't for me and my little one My partner is more resourceful, today you can only wait to collect the corpses for us, and later you will collect the corpses of more newcomers who set foot on the phantom beast training with dreams of a beautiful future in their hearts—"

Dr. C: "I didn't—"

JAY: "Now do you want to deny that you have wrongly evaluated the task level? Then, can I question now that you will be with a phantom beast above the second generation without assessing the danger of this task wrongly?" The task of head-on collision - according to the rules of the Phantom Beast Staff Guild, it should be a task in the purple task area or above, and it was hung in the white task area in a grandiose manner, and relatively cheap rewards were provided..."

Dr. C: "I'm not—"

JAY took a deep breath, and stopped Lu Twelve, who seemed to want to speak up behind him, without looking back: "If we report your behavior to the Phantom Beast Staff Guild, your ID card will be permanently blocked by the guild." , because of the seriousness of the plot, I do not guarantee whether your social contribution value will be directly cleared, deliberately concealing and deceiving is a very serious matter—"

"..." Dr. C held the phantom beast egg that seemed to use his entire wealth to pay off the debt, showing a broken expression, "Well——according to you, whether it is my mistake or not, this matter It's all my fault."

JAY raised his eyebrows silently, as if to say: otherwise?

Looking at the doctor in front of him who was about to be bullied to the point of crying, and looking at his future regular teammate who turned into a shaking S in an instant, Lu Twelve silently covered the eyes of the phantom beast sitting in his pocket at the moment : Don't learn to be bad.

Dr. C: "I really didn't intentionally put this dangerous task in the white task area. If what you said is true, it would be my negligence at work--now it seems that you don't want to report this task. thing, what do you want?"

"Compensation." JAY crossed his legs and said almost as soon as the doctor's words fell, "I can consider saying 'We entered the ancient battlefield C area and encountered a high-level phantom beast that seems to have survived there for a long time during the mission. 'Change to'We entered the ancient battlefield area C, and after completing the task, we accidentally saw a foreign high-level phantom beast just invading the C area, and asked the Phantom Beast Staff Guild to re-evaluate the task level of the ancient battlefield C area'—presumably you also Understand the importance of reversing the order - and let me help you hide it, I guess you have to pay me and my little friend some compensation, after all, we almost lost our lives."

After thinking for a while, Dr. C seemed to come back to his senses suddenly and said, "You are extorting."

"I'm blackmailing." JAY nodded expressionlessly, "But who gave you the opportunity to blackmail me?"

Lu Twelve silently covered Fa Cai's ear on his head: Don't be bad, don't be bad.

Dr. C took a deep breath, grabbed the ID card he put on the table, and quickly swipe it a few times——Lu Twelve stretched his neck to look, as if he saw the doctor enter the bank interface, he shrank again Turning his neck back, and at the same time, the doctor has raised his head: "How many gold coins do you want, I will transfer it to you directly now."

JAY showed a satisfied smile and opened his mouth.Just as the lion was about to open his mouth—but before he had time to speak, suddenly, as if Lu Twelve had thought of something, he made a wrong step and stepped forward to block between his teammates and the task entruster: "Gold coins don't need it!" It's..."

JAY was taken aback for a moment, then realized that Lu Twelve had said something and raised his eyebrows suddenly: "Hey!"

Dr. C also raised his head, as if looking at him distrustingly, as if he was afraid that he would make more excessive demands——

Lu Twelve smiled slightly, and said neither in a hurry nor in a hurry: "I just want you to promise that after you have completely studied the egg tree fruit we handed over as a task item, no matter what you find, you will not disclose your information to the public. As a result of the research—and guarantee that throughout your entire working life, you will never let anyone—except my partner and I, get near that grove of egg trees.”

Dr. C: "...what do you mean?"

Lu Twelve just lowered his eyes: "Can it be done?"

"What's so wonderful about the egg tree fruit—it seems to be heavier than before, but this fruit is just the product of ordinary mutated plants, and it was included in the ranks of 'unusable' plants a long time ago," Dr. C said. He thoughtfully weighed the egg tree fruit in his hands, "Could it be that you have discovered a new use for it?"

Lu Twelve smiled: "This is none of your business."

JAY whistled like a hooligan behind him.

Dr. C was silent for a moment, and then asked as if confirming: "If I refuse, will you go to the relevant organization to complain about me?"

"Yes," JAY nodded before Lu Twelve had time to speak, "You also know how serious the crime of intentionally hurting Phantom Beast staff is, and you might lose your job in the research institute— Believe me, in fact, this fruit is not very useful, it is impossible for you to publish any award-winning papers in Journal A..."

Dr. C looked at Lu Twelve suspiciously, and Lu Twelve shrugged.

Dr. C thought for a while, and then asked: "Then if there is any turmoil in that area in the future—"

"Please contact us directly in private," Lu Twelve said lightly, "We can survive the first time there, and we can also survive the second time. We have taken over the tasks in the area near the forest park in Area C of the ancient battlefield. As your guardian A secret reward, and we will never ask you for any reward in the future."

"..."

Applying for tasks with the Phantom Beast Staff Guild every year adds up to a lot of expenses, if you can save this money for research funding——

So about 10 minutes later, the journey to find the fruit of the egg tree in Area C of the ancient battlefield ended perfectly under the nod of Dr. C.

……

After leaving the doctor's research institute, the two Phantom Beast staff returned directly to City G to collect the task rewards. Although there were no special activities in the Phantom Beast Staff Guild on this day, there were quite a lot of people, and most of them gathered in the task board Something is being discussed below, and something interesting seems to be happening...

Because Lu Twelve and the others had too much luggage on hand, they were not in the mood to join in the fun at all, and went straight to the lobby of beginners.

So Lu Twelve successfully received the first quest reward at the window - plus he found a missing person, Byron, so the quest reward this time can be said to be very impressive for a novice like Lu Twelve. When the staff behind the window handed him 12 gold coins and the ID card, he checked the ID card directly and found that his information page had changed——

Name: Lu Shier

Age: 25

Sex: Male

City: City J

Occupation: Phantom Beast Staff

Social contribution value: 1700 (+4300 can be upgraded to purple)

Phantom Beast Guild Contribution Value: 31 (+1969 can be upgraded to blue)

Medieval Continent ID number: A99155766

Among them, the number representing the social contribution value has changed from green to blue, and the number representing the contribution value of the Phantom Beast Staff Guild has changed from white to green at the beginning.

This means that after Lu Twelfth completed the task in Area C of this ancient battlefield, both social contribution values ​​have been upgraded, especially the social contribution value. After reaching blue, he can come in and out at will to provide meat restaurant, and receive a piece of meat from the food vending machine every day.

Lu Twelve thought for a while, since he was able to hang out in the restaurant, he could leave a piece of government-issued meat every day for Fa Cai—after all, it’s not good to eat canned food all the time, so it’s safer to make it yourself.

Just thinking about it, at this moment, JAY poked his head over and looked at the ID card in Lu Twelve's hand: "Wow, why is your social contribution value so high? The ID number is so far behind that it looks like you just got it. A newcomer to society with an ID card."

"Oh, because I did some other things before." Lu Twelve put the ID card back into his pocket with a smile, and patted it like a baby.

Afterwards, JAY accompanied Lu Twelve back to the G City Rescue Station to get his belongings and prepare to move. After saying goodbye to Saier and Yani one by one, Lu Twelve returned to his room and looked around, but unexpectedly found that Except for some daily necessities for Fa Cai, a can of goat milk powder and a pet recipe book, he actually had nothing to take away.

The few pieces of clothes were worn on him in one set, and a pair of trousers were worn away by Byron, leaving only a washed shirt to take away. Lu Twelve took the shirt off the hanger, He casually folded them and stuffed them into his bag, which means "packing is over", and he was about to leave when Fa Cai, who was quietly in Lu Shier's pocket, jumped out of his pocket and landed on the bed. Then he picked up a blanket that was spread on the bed and tugged at it, raised his tail, turned his head and meowed at Lu Twelve twice.

Lu Twelve looked back, only to realize that the blanket was a cheap blanket he bought from the street in order to get rich and have a place to sleep in. As a result, this guy actually recognized the bed?

"...Actually, sometimes we can act less like homeless bums, Brother Cai." Lu Twelfth rolled up the blanket with a face full of helplessness, while pinching the thing under his arm, "Is it okay now? ?”

Fa Cai let out a cry of satisfaction, and jumped back into Lu Twelve's pocket.

After packing up, Lu Twelve and JAY walked out of the room slowly. When they passed the kitchen of the rescue station, JAY unexpectedly saw that the small kitchen of the rescue station was very lively. People seemed to be queuing up to buy something. The young man stood and watched curiously for a while, but before he had time to see why, he was dragged away by Lu Twelve: "Let's go, there's nothing to see."

"What are those people doing?"

"It's nothing, it's just queuing up to buy sugar biscuits." Lu Twelve said lightly, "I didn't expect that I haven't been back for a few days, and the price has already dropped to this level."

JAY showed a surprised expression: "Biscuits? ——How could the rescue station have such advanced things!"

"It's not a real biscuit," Lu Twelve squinted at him, "It's made of nutritional powder. I was the one who first thought of putting this biscuit in the oven to bake—otherwise, you think I'm going to live alone." Where do the homeless people who live on odd jobs at the relief station get their money?"

Fa Cai: "Meow!"

Lu Twelve: "I didn't call you, meow meow."

Get rich: "..."

JAY thought for a while, looked hesitant and said, "Then why do you..."

Lu Twelve lowered his eyes: "Because the work I did before had a lot of competition from peers, and the audience is also a group of people who are more particular about it, so in comparison, if you want to stand out in it, you only need to rely on the upper level. The quality of service and more conscientious money can be enough. I brought this idea to the aid station, so when making biscuits, I was less aware of the need to protect the production method. Many times I prepared the recipe in the room and directly It’s baked and sold now, so many people will make it later—”

"..."

Lu Twelve thought for a while and said: "Although some ingredients are not as nutritious or delicious as what I make, it is okay to use them as snacks. After all, I sell more expensive and similar tastes. Originally, it was a novelty, and some people were willing to sell it for a dozen silver coins, so they settled for the next best thing. After that, these relatively cheap items became a market... Later, more and more people would do it, and now a few copper coins can also be sold. Get frosted cookies the size of your palm."

JAY nodded and said: "I can understand the actions of those people. It is impossible to keep fresh things forever. It is already very good to earn the first pot of gold."

"So, why do you think I asked Dr. C to protect the research results of egg fruit, and asked that no one else be allowed to approach that area except us? Isn't it to protect market competitiveness," Lu Shi Er smiled lightly and said, "The biscuit thing did teach me a lesson. I have come to a completely different place, and I have to abide by the rules of a place. It's time to let go of the old ideas—"

JAY turned his head and looked at the black-haired young man who was holding a big iron pot beside him: "What?"

At this time, the two had both walked out of the rescue station.

The sun was about to fall from the sky, Lu Twelve narrowed his eyes slightly, and the afterglow of the sun shone in his black pupils, making his eyes extremely bright. After a long time, JAY heard him say in a calm voice——

"What I want is not money, but a cash cow that keeps dropping money."
