Chapter 38 38 My Organization Is Extremely Fair, My Boss Is Absolutely Incorruptible, but My Future Is Bleak

Chapter 38 38. My organization is extremely fair, my boss is absolutely honest, and my future is bright.

Mason slept for a long time, and he woke up slowly after about three hours.

When I opened my eyes, a familiar character card jumped into my eyes. The "E-class personnel of the Stars Club" in the identity column had changed into a freshly released "C-class staff of the Stars Club".

The young man did not feel joy or satisfaction after getting promoted. On the contrary, he opened the sleeve of his left arm the moment he got up.

The originally very simple ghost claw tattoo on it has become very complicated.

The outer black ring turned into a simple light-like flame line, and the inner ghost claws were "upgraded" to double ghost claws with a twisted and weird torso.

Zha Kang's guess about this curse was absolutely correct!

It really is growth-oriented.

Moreover, Mason has figured out its growth conditions through "personal practice". The improvement in the level of the Star Society will make this tattoo become more complex and complete.

Mason guessed that if he reached level A, then this tattoo would completely reveal the reflection of an evil ghost.

"Boss! Why have you grown taller?"

Kite Man, who had been watching Mason and was already a little drowsy, was awakened. His first exclamation made Mason subconsciously look at his feet.

The trousers that fit well before have become trendy "high-profile trousers", with part of the leg and wrist exposed, and two buttons of the windbreaker shirt have been undone.

Not only has he grown almost 5 centimeters taller, but he has also become stronger. He no longer has the skinny look of a 17-year-old who was bullied at school.

Can you believe I have muscles in my abdomen?

"Don't be surprised, it's just an 'employee benefit' and everyone has it."

Mr. Hunter's gentle voice sounded at the door of the large box next to the office.

He walked up to Mason and looked up and down. The young man clearly felt a penetrating gaze examining him, as if he was being seen through.

"Well, having a great job is half the job."

Mr. Hunter told a dirty joke in a serious tone, withdrew his gaze from Mason's lower body, and said to the embarrassed young man:

"You have a good foundation. The effect of strengthening your body and life quality is very good. Your strength, speed, and endurance have all been improved. It has also helped you control your endocrine system and improved your gastrointestinal circulation.

But don’t get too hung up on this ‘perk’, Mason.

It doesn't make you a super human overnight, it just raises your physical fitness to the upper level of what a standard humanoid would be for your age.

It's similar to an excellent soldier who has been trained for many years, but you have to tap into your potential. "

"This is enough, Mr. Hunter. I am grateful for the organization's training. I will do my best to do things well and not let you and old Captain K down."

Mason found every opportunity to show his loyalty.

Mr. Hunter didn't care about this. He said in a businesslike tone:

"Since you two don't plan to change the base world, I won't force you.

My work here has been completed and I will leave soon. I went out for a walk while you were in a coma, and I have to say, your city opened my eyes, Mason. "

The big boss of the Star Club complained:

“While I was on the street buying a cup of milk tea, I witnessed three robberies, two frauds, one theft against me and an indecency that happened right next to me.

By the way, I saw a group of heavily armed guys having a shootout in the street, and a few guys in strange clothes falling from the sky.

Has your life in Gotham always been this colorful? No wonder you don’t want to change the world. If it were me, I wouldn’t want to miss so many ‘wonderful things’. "

"Haha, all the locals are like this, sir."

Mason's deadpan read:

"Don't look at the chaotic appearance of this city. Once you get to know it deeply, you will find that it is even more filthy on the inside, but it is really suitable for newcomers like us to lurk here.

It itself is a mixed bag. "

"Fine."

Mr. Hunter nodded and said:

"Then before I leave, it is necessary for me to play the role of 'newcomer guide' again and tell you some things you must know.

Oh, right.

You two will remember to call the police for me later.

The guy who molested the little boy cut off his crime tools and his hands and feet and threw them in a trash can on the street. I asked the police to go there quickly to prevent him from losing too much blood and dying so easily.

This won't cause you any trouble, will it? "

"No, sir, this is an act of supreme justice and shows your bright heart. I will call the police for you immediately!"

Kite Man took out his mobile phone and walked out of the box with a discerning eye.

As the younger brother, he knew that this would be a private conversation time between the big boss and the little boss, and he shouldn't be there, lest he hear something he shouldn't hear.

"Mason, since you are already a C-level personnel, the reorganized Team K will not send any more guides to you."

Mr. Hunter took out a thin booklet from his cloak and handed it to him and said:

"As a captain, you need to study harder and learn all the rules as quickly as possible to avoid unnecessary risks when going on missions in the future, and this."

A small black velvet bag was also placed in Mason's hand. Mr. Hunter explained:

"Here are fifteen energy stones for opening the world gate. They are your two-month team ration. Of course, if you are proficient in alchemy or magic, you can also make energy stones yourself.

If the quality is good enough, the organization will buy it back at a high price."

"Okay, I understand."

Mason nodded, and heard the big boss who was really good and not overbearing asked:

"How many world coordinates does Lao K's world gate record?"

"There are four lighted scales on the door handle."

Mason recalled the details of the world gate, and Mr. Hunter nodded and said:

"Then excluding the base world, you should have three explorable worlds at hand.

Considering that Lao K's level should not have ordinary D-level worlds, the lowest is C-level. With the current appearance of your team, I don't recommend you to explore high-risk worlds.

Practice in low-level worlds first.

Team K has just been reorganized, so the organization will not assign you mandatory pioneering and exploration tasks in the past two months, but you must grasp them in two months. Improve your strength as soon as possible.

Remember!

This is very important, otherwise once you are thrown into a strange world that needs to be explored, you will easily be wiped out. "

"Okay, thank you for your reminder, sir."

Mason kept these suggestions in mind, and he humbly asked:

"Is there anything else I must know? If this does not take up your precious time, can Charles and I treat you to a meal? "

"I appreciate your kindness, but there is no need for a meal. "

Mr. Hunter laughed meaningfully, patted Mason on the shoulder, and said:

"Don't play these little tricks, the Star Club is an organization that advocates efficiency, Mason, you just joined us and don't know much about these things. If you want to win my favor and attention, then contribute to the organization as much as possible.

We don't have those bad habits of big companies.

As a huge organization spanning nearly a thousand parallel worlds, we have a set of efficient and honest internal audits. Hmm? What is this?"

He looked at Mason and quietly handed over a small jewelry box.

There was an irregular gray stone the size of a fingernail inside. Mr. Hunter's eyes narrowed immediately behind his mask. He took the thing that couldn't be any smaller and examined it in front of his eyes.

After nearly ten seconds of silence, he said:

"Are you bribing me? So blatant? This seems to be a strange thing that can break life and death?"

"Yes, sir, I have experimented with zombies. It can make the dead "resurrect". Well, it is a very scary "resurrection."

Mason bowed his head and said:

"I admit that I had some thoughts when I found it in the ruins of the academy. I originally planned to keep it for my own use, but then I realized that this thing is too evil.

It is definitely not something a rookie like me can handle, and I have no way to destroy it.

You are the old captain of Captain K, and I am the new captain of Team K designated by Captain K. If you round it up, you are also my old senior and big brother.

I can only ask you for advice on such dangerous things.

Sir, please be kind and help Team K deal with such terrible and evil things."

"If your behavior is exposed, you will be thrown into the red dwarf."

Mr. Hunter shook his head, and the small piece of resurrection stone disappeared with a flick of his finger.

He righteously rebuked:

"Don't do this again! Did you hear me? The Star Club is an honest organization!

We don't form small internal groups, let alone cliques!

Our internal competition has always been based on strength. It's better to spend time improving yourself than to do these crooked ways!

Your thinking is very problematic, it seems that I must pay more attention to your K team, which has a bad leadership. Are you interested in becoming my direct development team?

There were no vacancies originally.

But for the sake of old K, I can give you a chance to try."

"What's the difference, sir?"

Mason exclaimed in his heart, what an honest person!

I just tried to see if you really accepted it. This corporate culture is really good.

He asked softly:

"I believe this is definitely for the organization, but I'm just afraid that our lack of ability will embarrass you."

"There is no difference between the direct development team and the ordinary team, except that you are directly responsible to me. When each mandatory development mission is issued, you have the right to choose one of the three target worlds.

Correspondingly, the worlds that require exclusive development teams to enter are generally more difficult.

The risk is greater.

Of course, the benefits are also greater."

Mr. Hunter coughed and said to Mason:

"But I think young people should be motivated, and it is also a good thing to have the courage to challenge themselves. Look at this lonely journey in life. If you don't make a big fuss, how can you have fun?

Don't you think so?"

"Team K is of course willing to help you solve problems."

Mason agreed without hesitation.

Mr. Hunter looked at him again and motioned him to take out his ID card. Mason pinched his fingers, and a bronze star card appeared in his hand, indicating that his level had been upgraded.

The big boss stretched out his finger and drew a unique mark on Mason's ID card, and a small hunter emblem appeared in the corner of Mason's card.

"That's it. Team K will have its first pioneering mission in two months. Perform well and don't embarrass me!"

Mr. Hunter retracted his finger and said to Mason:

"Another thing newcomers need to pay attention to is the trade fair that happens every three months.

It is also one of the very important organizational benefits for newcomers. Whatever you lack can be exchanged there with fellow members of the organization, and you can exchange any good things you have.

The rest is in the captain's manual, read it yourself. "

After saying that, Mr. Hunter was about to leave but was stopped by Mason. The young man hesitated for a moment and finally asked the question that had been nagging him in his heart.

He said to the big boss:

"Sir, I saw the doomsday with my own eyes in that wizarding world, and I also heard from Old K that disaster and tragedy are the main themes of the parallel world. This made me toss and turn after I came back and couldn't let go.

I want to ask you, are disasters like zombies really common in parallel worlds? "

"It depends on how you feel about the end of the world, Mason."

Mr. Hunter stopped and did not look back.

He sighed and said:

"When will the world end? When the stars fall apart? When the backbone of civilization is shattered? Or when the malice of darkness envelopes everyone and drives away the last ray of light?

Many newcomers will have the same doubt after completing their first world exploration, but few can persist in looking for the answer to this question.

Mason, you might want to give it a try.

My answer to this question may not be suitable for you, but you can use your own eyes and steps to summarize your answer. I look forward to the day when you tell me that answer.

The premise is that you can survive until that time. "

You didn't say anything.

Mason complained in his mind that his new big boss was actually a Riddler.

He sighed and was about to say goodbye to Mr. Hunter, but unexpectedly, the gentle-tempered big man suddenly turned around and said to him when he walked to the door of the box:

"Ah, I almost forgot something, Mason."

He stared at the young man and said:

"You have some kind of pheromone mark on your body for positioning. I don't know if you have noticed it, but the person who put this mark on you is obviously very clever.

That special pheromone leaves a weak, detectable reaction signal wherever you stay for more than five minutes.

But don't worry.

I have cleaned up the traces here. "

Mr. Hunter chuckled and said to the young man whose expression changed drastically:

"Youth is an advantage, Mason, but it is also a terrible disadvantage. It seems that you have been targeted by a hunter who is far more mature and powerful than you.

I can only wish you good luck, little one. "

"Wait! Sir!"

A flash of lightning flashed in Mason's heart, and he immediately remembered some of his actions in Blackgate Prison last night, especially his conversation with Penguin in the sewers.

Damn it!

He must have been there for more than five minutes!

Batman has been there!

His whereabouts were exposed, but the fact that the terrifying man hadn't even knocked on the door meant that things were about to turn around.

In desperation, he grabbed Mr. Hunter's wrist, but he waved his hand like a sandbag and instantly jumped ten meters across the box and hit the wall.

It felt like being hit by a heavy artillery shell

The hunter closed his fingers, and a surge of soft force pulled Mason back. He, who had been so amiable just now, was now exuding a terrible chill all over his body.

He stared at Mason and said word by word:

"I don't like people touching me! Mason, this is the first time and I don't want a next time!"

"I'm sorry, my lord."

Mason lowered his head and said softly:

"It just happened suddenly. I might have been targeted by Batman. If it's not presumptuous, I hope you can do me a favor before leaving."

"Do you know how busy I am, young man."

Mr. Hunter asked.

Mason's answer was to take out Sujie's Eagle with his backhand. This sword is the best thing he has at the moment besides the magic stone and the resurrection stone fragments.

When Mr. Hunter saw the sword, he shook his head and said:

"Old K's sword, or the weapon information I gave him. You really know how to choose a gift. Forget it, tell me, what do you want me to do for you? I can only give you thirty minutes."

Mason immediately told him his plan, and Mr. Hunter nodded and disappeared. After he left, Mason sat on the sofa and looked at his bruised left hand.

It was this hand that held Mr. Hunter's wrist just now, and the touch at that moment made Mason at least certain of one thing.

That's a woman!

Men's wrists are never that slender.

So, Mr. Hunter is actually Old K’s old lover? Or some other damn relationship? Otherwise, it cannot be explained that this big shot gave him so many conveniences as a newcomer just for the sake of old K.

Or does she have ulterior motives for being so nice to a newcomer like her?

Do you fatten pigs before killing them?

Well, we must be on guard against it.

As Mason walked out of the box, he thought that he might need to prepare a long-term contact plan for this unknown hunter lady.

Batman has many bad habits but there are also many things worth learning. Mason feels that he may also need a private database.
