Chapter 412: Escort Agency

POSTED ON JUNE 20, 2023 BY KEN

After receiving this series of information, Fang Linyan briefly glanced at it and put it behind his mind.

For him, the most urgent task right now was to complete his own Ascension Trial. Besides, there was no penalty for not completing this mission anywa right?

But… After he was stunned for a while, he suddenly felt that something was not quite right.

Thinking about it carefully, he couldn’t help being stunned.

“I….I’ll fuck you!!!”

“Damn, mother, fucking, bitch, I, I, I will immediately…”

Fang Linyan felt as if he wanted to hit a wall at this time. He said four identical curses in a row.

At this time, he could only vent his anger by cursing.

Which goddamned bastard actually assigned such a weird mission to me, asking me to kill myself?!

Fang Linyan pondered for a long time before he came to his senses. His identity in this world was Fang Xiaoqi from Fang Family Village…

And Fang Xiaoqi was a direct member of the Fang Clan!

After calming down, Fang Linyan immediately realized a very serious matter. He immediately consulted the space.

“Excuse me, this side mission: Genocide, is it just my mission? Or is it a mission for some people? Or… a mission that all entering contractors will receive?”

The reply of the Space shattered Fang Linyan’s last hope.

“In Space Battlefield, because the main mission is killing. Which Space has more contractors left in the end, then which it will have a greater right to speak and seizes more resources.”

“So there is no main mission at all, only side mission… so all contractors who enter will receive this mission.”

Fang Linyan sighed slightly and said in agony,

“Well, at least this thing has nothing to do with the damn golden side mission. Presumably, not many people intend to complete it.”

However, a ruthless prompt came immediately:

“After continuous mission: Genocide is completed, the follow-up mission will be unlocked. The Secret Hidden in The Soul.”

“After completing the follow-up mission: The Secret Hidden in The Soul, the golden side mission: Tear will be unlocked next.”

Fang Linyan looked at the prompt on his retinas and sighed deeply. He really didn’t know what to say.

Life is already so difficult, why do you want to expose it?

Can you let me keep a little hope?

10 minutes later,

Fang Linyan, with a very heavy heart, appeared at the door of the ** Escort Agency.

That’s right, the dilapidated plaque hanging at the door entrance of the escort agency was written like this.

Because the first 2 words had been completely lost, they could only be replaced by asterisks.

Standing at the door of the escort agency, Fang Linyan heard the voices of “Ho” and “Ha” coming from inside. It should be that the escort leader, Liu Huzi, was leading several errand runners to practice.

At this moment, he was also very clear that he didn’t have much time to delay. Even though he knew that the escort leader in his memory had a bad temper, he had no choice but to bite the bullet and walked in.

Liu Huzi was facing the door with his back at this time. When he heard the door being pushed, he was overjoyed, thinking that there was a business coming.

As a result, when he looked back, he immediately glared and scolded,

“Fang Xiaoqi, you still dare to come? I will break your dog leg right now!”

Fang Linyan was a person who made decisions before acting. If he was not sure, he would not dare to ask for humiliation himself. He immediately said with an apologetical smile,

“Master Liu, please calm down. I have a good news for you.”

After finishing speaking, he took out about half a tael of silver from his pocket and handed it to Liu Huzi,

“When I was going out today, I happened to meet Old Man Xu from the neighbor village. He asked me to bring you a message. He requests an escort the day after tomorrow.”

“Because he doesn’t have time to come into the city today, he will come to talk to you tomorrow. The half taels of silver are the deposit he gave.”

Don’t be angry with the person who smiles. Of course, the most important thing was the deposit.

So Liu Huzi’s irritability and anger quickly dissipated.

He took the half taels of silver, bit it with his teeth, and found that it was pure silver, then he let out a satisfied snort and said,

“Oh, then I misunderstood you. Fang Xiaoqi, are you tired from the walk? Look at how sweaty you are. Big Four, stop your practice and get Xiaoqi a bowl of cold water from the well.”

Fang Linyan thought to himself: I’m sweating because I was frightened by the god damn Space.

This dog gives me a mission to kill myself! It isn’t related to being tired of walking at all!

The water was gotten from the deep well.

When he drank it, he felt cool like ice. It felt especially comfortable when he was sweating profusely.

After hearing Liu Huzi’s words, Fang Linyan hurriedly said,

“How can I let Brother Four do this? I can go to the backyard to fetch water by myself, but I have to trouble Brother Four to get me a ladle.”

Big Four was a newcomer who had been here for half a year. His hobby was to slack off.

At this time, under Liu Huzi’s supervision, he squatted almost until his legs were broken. He wished he could get the ladle himself, so he immediately nodded and said,

“Okay, Xiaoqi, go to the well in the backyard and wait for me. I’ll come right away.”

“Okay.” Fang Linyan nodded and smiled.

At this time, a crow suddenly croaked a few times on the big tree next to him. Fang Linyan stagnated a little, then he returned to normal and walked toward the backyard.

***

It turned out that in an attic more than 90 meters away, a man was tilting his head and looking at the yard of the escort agency with a telescope. He murmured,

“The crisis is over. I repeat. The crisis is over.”

“Just now I translated their conversation with the lip language software. The young man who just entered should be aborigine. He came to discuss an escort with the escort leader.”

At this time, another big man whispered in the team channel,

“Very good, then we have to hurry up and hope that this clue that Xiao Wu bought at a high price will not be in vain.”

The big man, who was wearing a bamboo hat, had already approached the escort agency.

Behind him, another girl dressed as a daughter-in-law also whispered in the team channel,

“When I bought the clue, it was notarized by Space. As long as the timeline of this world does not deviate too far, then we will definitely be able to get the trigger item of the hidden mission.”

Speaking of which, the girl’s voice trembled slightly probably because of excitement,

“The hidden mission may reward Void Sword Art. That skill is at least Rank A!”

The big man whispered,

“Stop talking and prepare to act according to the plan. Black Scorpion, are you ready? Whether you can control Liu Huzi is the key to our success this time!”

Black Scorpion said,

“No problem, Whale. Leave it to me.”

The big man said,

“Okay, Xiao Wu. Come to my side. We will rush in to eliminate those errand runners first.”

“The countdown starts now, 10, 9, 8….”

***

At this moment, Fang Linyan didn’t know that an ambush was brewing outside.

All he knew was that someone, most likely a contractor, was watching over the place.

When Black Scorpion used the telescope to observe this side before, the reflection of the telescope lens was inadvertently captured by the sensor of [Mechanical Gyrfalcon].

Then [Mechanical Gyrfalcon] warned Fang Linyan directly.

To be honest, Fang Linyan has no intention of causing trouble now, because at this time he was already the thorn in the eyes of dozens or even hundreds of contractors!

He just hoped to find that damned Zhou Zhuo quickly to start his Ascension Trial.

Therefore, after Fang Linyan saw the Big Four, he immediately said anxiously,

“Brother Four! Where is Zhou Zhuo? I have something very important to look for him now!”

While he was talking, he had already stuffed a dozen copper coins in his hand.

For an apprentice who had just joined the escort agency, the dozen or so copper coins were already a huge sum of money.

Big Four weighed the copper coins, and he immediately said with bright eyes,

“Wow, you are so generous today, Zhou Zhuo is not here anymore. He went out with Brother Luo early this morning.”

Fang Linyan sighed helplessly. He knew that the process of finding Zhou Zhuo would not be so smooth, so he could only say,

“Where did they go? Believe me, I do have very important things for him.”

Big Four looked at Fang Linyan with greedy eyes,

“I forgot. If you give me some more money, maybe I will remember.”

Fang Linyan clenched his right hand. He really wanted to use violence directly, but he still managed to hold back. He looked into Big Four’s eyes and said word by word,

“If you don’t tell me, I’ll tell Liu Huzi that you robbed me!”

“Liu Huzi may not uphold justice, but the money in your hand will definitely be taken away by him. You will get nothing!”

“As for Zhou Zhuo’s whereabouts, I’ll just ask others later!”

TL: Void Sword Art? Sounds pretty badass…
