Chapter 454: The Young Man Who Seems to Never Straighten His Back

After finalizing his employer, Li An began to understand him.Tree Heart Forest.You never know until you see it, and it's a shock.Tree Heart Forest hasn't been doing well in recent decades.Their backbone, the Old Tree God, seems to be in seclusion, having done nothing for many years.Leaderless, Tree Heart Forest has suffered repeated defeats in its battles with the Insect Garden.Now that the spacecraft has entered the territory of the Hezong Alliance, it can directly access their interstellar network for information.The eight major interest groups have all issued their own recruitment notices.Of these, Tree Heart Forest offers the lowest compensation rate.However, Tree Heart Forest is not completely uncompetitive. It states that the most outstanding employee will have the opportunity to receive a portion of the Tree Heart God's Qi.Even so, Tree Heart Forest still ranks last on the recruitment website.After all, everyone hopes to make a fortune from this competition, and to hire talented individuals from various races, they have brought out all their best assets. This isn't just a game for the three clans of the Temple.Including our own members of the United Alliance, there are seven clans in total.Seven clans of genius.The money of these seven clans, plus the money of the eight major interest groups, is now all in the United Alliance pool.The total amount of money remains unchanged, but this is a process of redistribution.This is a gamble.If any one clan can reap all the profits like the banker in a casino, then the United Alliance might no longer have the eight major interest groups.At this time,Li An also received messages from many friends."Brother Li, it's time to disembark. Are you awake? Which company are you going to be a mercenary for?""Curious!"The thirty human contestants formed a large group.The most talkative among them were the mid-level players.The weaker and the top players were all masters of diving. Qin Xiaoye: "Where are you all going?"Li Shaoshu: "I think I'll be going to the Jisheng Palace.""Huh, you want mechanical ascension?"Li Shaoshu: "The Jisheng Palace has a method to increase computing power, I need that.""Then Liu Jun, Lin He, Liu Yongye, Fan Guanyun, you guys."Everyone named their preferred employers.A large number said they didn't know.At this point, Li Shaoshu suddenly said, "Liu Jun, Zhao Shaolong, and Lin He, people of your caliber don't need to rush to choose.""They'll bid high to compete for you.""Let them bid, and whoever offers the highest price will go."At this, everyone's eyelids jumped.So shady.As expected of the Li family.We were all still students, still thinking like students, focusing on perks and other things, never considering the possibility of directly bargaining with the boss. Li Shaoshu continued, "We're not just workers, we're geniuses.""It's said we each get what we need, but in reality, even without the Alliance Realm, we can still cultivate through the benefits of the Cultivation Temple.""So, they need us more.""Everyone, when you go out, put on a bit of airs and let the other side know who's the boss."As soon as these words were spoken,Everyone exclaimed, "Awesome!"Li Shaoshu, standing in front of the Star Stage, also wore a faintly satisfied smile, his mind active."Those less powerful players can actually team up with the stronger ones.""Wherever they go, I'll go.""If those at the top have food to eat, those below them at least have soup to drink.""The human race must unite."As soon as these words were spoken,Unexpectedly, the group fell silent.Because Lin He, Liu Jun, and the others remained silent.How could the mid- and lower-level players dare initiate conversation?They have their own pride.Sometimes, I send emojis about the boss asking for my help as a joke.I'm really asking for help.I can't bring myself to say it. At that, Li Shaoshu's smile froze.He seemed to have idealized things too much, not taking human nature into account.Everyone seemed embarrassed.What to do?He felt a little anxious.Suddenly,a dead dog emoji popped up.The dog pointed at Li Shaoshu and captioned, "Sure.""Liu Jun, Lin He, Liu Yongye, Zhao Shaolong, you guys, make a point and bring two or three people with you.""I'll bring two too.""Let's just go with Qin Kuang and Qin Xiaoye!"Lin He: "I want Qin Kuang and Xiaoye, I'm fragile."Qin Xiaoye: "I'm fine with either."Zhao Shaolong: "I was just peeing, didn't see it.""Zhang Yuedong, Cai Min, you two follow me."Zhang Yuedong and Cai Min were both in the Elemental Group, ranking 30th and 29th out of the 30 Human players.Then, everyone began to assign their spots. Li An: "Tianlian, where are you going?"Cao Tianlian: "I can go on my own."Li An: "What about Fan Guanyun? I've already made it clear that you can come with me, but I'm going to the Heart of Tree Forest."At this, many people who had been hoping to chat privately with Li An, the easygoing boss, fell silent.The rewards in the Heart of Tree Forest were truly awful.At this moment, Shuangxue looked at Li An and winked, "I'll take two of you somewhere else.""Otherwise, it's a bit of a waste of space.""No, I should be able to take three.""Everyone's been taking care of the younger ones. I'm the oldest, and you're also quite big. It wouldn't be appropriate to be together without anyone.""Besides, there's no point in me going to the Heart of Tree Forest."Seeing Li An's silence, Shuangxue secretly rejoiced.He cares about me deeply and doesn't want to be separated from me.Hehehehehehe!But he's a great hero.As the saying goes, life has always been about finding the perfect balance.But Shuangxue is no ordinary person. "We're just mercenaries. We can meet each other except when on missions.""Besides, I believe that with my weight, my employer will have to agree to many of my conditions."Shuangxue's piercing eyes reassured Li An.She was no little girl, but the daughter of the Grand Marshal, one of the strongest of our time, capable of fighting a thousand enemies.Finally, Shuangxue added, "You practice hard, and I will practice hard too.""If you're not strong enough, you'll always have troubles.""If you're strong enough, you can solve many problems, right?""Yes!" Li An nodded heavily.Shuangxue immediately sent a message to the group chat: "Any three people, follow me."As soon as these words were spoken,the group chat exploded with messages.A group of people were shouting, "Take me, take me."Everyone had witnessed Sister Xue's strength in the third level of the narrow sky.Following her, there were only two things to do:Kneeling attitude, lying posture.Li An was at a loss whether to laugh or cry at this.At the other end of the Star Platform. Li Shaoshu watched everyone's assignments and breathed a sigh of relief.Thirty people.The bottom ten had basically been taken by the top few.The rest, those in the middle, all wanted to go on their own.Now, everyone had food and soup.But Li Shaoshu didn't feel any sense of accomplishment. Instead, he felt a faint sense of dread.When everyone was silent, he panicked, feeling like he'd said something wrong. His mind was in a mess, unsure what to do.If Li An hadn't suddenly said one or two words, the whole group chat might have remained awkward.Because of me.He even felt that those people would hate him behind his back, calling him self-righteous.His father's attitude and behavior towards him made him feel as if he could never straighten his back or hold his head up high.
