Mu You paused, following Zhang Yang’s guidance, he scanned the badge with his cell phone.
The badge was obviously special, embedded with an electromagnetic chip. After scanning, the software automatically logged into his account.
From his personal page, he could access basic information like his name and ID number. As for the reward points balance, it had indeed become 1000 points.
One thousand points were the equivalent of a hundred years of life span. It’s not much, but it’s free, so using it wouldn’t sting.
Taking into consideration the free-loading ability of Time Pocket Watch, he could use these points to exchange for Spell Scrolls, study them, then go back in time and hang the scrolls back to get his points back. By repeating this process, he could easily learn many spells...
Of course, this method could only be used once or twice at most. If he kept exchanging, it would be easy for others to notice the discrepancies.
So it’s best to wait until he has saved up more points, and then directly exchange for higher-level spells to get a better value.
"How do I get the items after I’ve exchanged for them?" Mu You asked Zhang Yang.
"It’s simple, you just buy them, and then the headquarters will take the items out of the warehouse and have them delivered to our branch. It will then be handed over to you by me. The whole process is very quick, probably half a day’s time." Zhang Yang laughed.
Mu You nodded. This points reward system was quite good - efficient, simple, highly confidential, and completely fraud-proof. Since everyone is a public servant, who would dare to falsify this?
However, after hearing this, Mu You suddenly wanted to apply for the delivery job.
If he could gatekeep all these scrolls, he could take advantage of each one while ensuring suspicion won’t rise. To him, it was the perfect job.
Of course, it was just a thought. He knew very well that such an important position was not something ordinary people could apply for.
"Does our branch have any tasks available recently?"
Upon knowing the points and redemption model, Mu You immediately took an interest in tasks.
No wonder Zhang Yang had told him to take as many tasks as he could. As this task rewarded points for rewards model, it was like an additional way to gain lifespan outside the game, indeed very profitable.
Of course, this is under the prerequisite that he has the strength to complete the task.
"Task? Yes, there is!"
Zhang Yang immediately read Mu You’s thoughts and smiled, "Tomorrow morning, there’s a player job fair happening at the city center. It’s jointly organized by a few major power branches and large corporations stationed in K-city. It’s the first time K-city is openly recruiting new players to the public. Our branch is one of the recruiting forces, and at the same time, we also need to perform patrol tasks, mainly in charge of security issues at the site, and prevent any chaos. This is considered a D-class task, with only 50 reward points. Are you interested? I can also sign you up."
After thinking about it, the 50 reward points, equivalent to five years of lifespan, was not much, but the task was simple and wouldn’t take much time, hence it was much more efficient than his lifespan tasks.
After considering for a moment, Mu You agreed. These types of tasks with little danger are quite nice. While earning points, he could also get a close look at the recruitment fair, checking out what novel relics the other players possess.
After hanging around at the police station for a while, Mu You bid his farewell and left. But instead of rushing home, he hopped into a taxi to go to the hospital where Little Ya stayed.
In the ward, Little Ya was having a nightmare. In her dream, she was being chased by a horrifying group of werewolves. In front of her was a faint silhouette who was dragging her to run for their life. Only when she could no longer run did the figure stop and turned to face her, standing in front of her.
It was only then that Little Ya could see clearly. The figure was none other than her boss. She watched as Mu You, with no hesitation, charged into the werewolf pack and was then swallowed by the monstrous horde. She woke up in a cold sweat.
Little Ya woke up and opened her eyes in confusion. Only then did she realize that she was lying in a hospital bed, with Mu You standing by her bed, smiling and watching her, "Awake?"
Seeing Mu You unscathed, Little Ya’s nose tingled and she choked up, "Boss, I’m glad you weren’t eaten by the werewolves..."
Mu You was utterly confused. Isn’t that something he was supposed to say?
"The doctor said you had a mild concussion. How’s your head, does it still hurt?" Mu You asked.
Little Ya sat up, shook her head, and replied, "It doesn’t hurt anymore...Oh, boss, what was that...thing...from last night?"
When she came to her senses, she remembered what had happened last night and was immediately frightened.
"That was a player, just dressed up as a werewolf..."
Sighing, Mu You told her roughly about the werewolf episode and the recent controversy. She was simply an innocent victim caught in the incident.
"By the way, where’s Pea?" Little Ya suddenly remembering something, hastily reached over for her bag beside her, rummaged through it, but didn’t see the silhouette of the mantis.
Mu You took out the Thunder Mantis and handed it to Little Ya. The mantis was now curled up into a ball, deep in slumber.
"It exhausted all its energy trying to save you last night and fell into a deep sleep. Don’t worry, magical creatures are very resilient. It’ll recover after some time."
Looking at the curled-up Thunder Mantis, Little Ya was both touched and saddened. If it weren’t for it last night, she might have...
