Chapter 174: Employment
Li Nian was a little happy to come to Dragon City, because there were players passing by one after another on the street, although there were not many, but compared to the deserted scene a few days ago, it was much better.
Li Nian came to the City Lord's Mansion and found Lu Qin.
"Grandpa Lu Qin, how is the situation in the past few days, is it any better?"
"Much better, much better."
Lu Qin said with a smile.
"That's good, by the way, I came to you this time to ask if you know about the Elemental Jungle?"
"Elemental Jungle? Of course you know, it's the territory of the elemental elves, what, are you going there? β
"Yes, when I went to Wolong Mountain to look for Pixiu, I came across a divine tree in the Ancient Jungle, and it gave me a seed, and wanted me to plant this seed in Dragon Teng City, but this seed can only germinate after being soaked in the Fountain of Life, so I want to go to the Elemental Jungle."
"The Sacred Tree? Can you show me the seeds? β
"Absolutely." Li Nian directly handed it to Lu Qin.
Lu Qin looked at the seed for a while, and the surprise on his face was overflowing, "Your kid really inherited your father's genes, and any good thing can happen." β
"What's wrong?"
"This seed, if I guessed correctly, should be the Fruit of Chaos, and after planting, it can grow into the Chaos Divine Tree."
The Chaos Divine Tree? Isn't it the World Tree? And this fruit is obviously called the fruit of order, but it is said to be the fruit of chaos for Mao Luqin?
"What is the use of the Chaos Fruits?"
"Hehe, what's the use? You kid can just steal the fun, it is said that in the gap of the Three Realms grows a Chaos Sacred Tree that controls the order of the Three Realms. It bears fruit once every 100,000 years, and when it matures, it will follow the situation of the Three Realms. Choose the weaker side to fall, and the Chaos Tree that has just grown is the spirit level. A hundred years to become an immortal, a thousand years to become a god, but as long as the sacred tree does not die, the sacred tree cannot grow into a new sacred tree, unless the old sacred tree is about to die, it will transfer the divine power to the new Chaos Divine Tree. The Tree of Chaos is immensely powerful, its branches are imbued with the power of Chaos, all attacks ignore enemy defenses and resistances, and its Chaos Power is highly resistant to attacks of all kinds. The closer you get to it, the more resistances you get. β
"Such a???
"The Chaos Tree's abilities are much more than that, but after all, it is legendary, no one has ever seen it, and it is impossible to be sure. This thing fell on you, it's a fluke, speaking of which, we also have a bit of a fate with the elemental elf clan, when your father's master drove the crane west, your father in order to fulfill filial piety. Intending to bury his coffin next to the Tower of Babel, he traveled west from Phoenix, through the Elemental Jungle, and at the request of the Elven Queen, he helped the Elves destroy the Night Elves' space converter. Crush the Night Elves' plot to invade the Elemental Elves and gain the trust of the Elemental Elf Queen, who allows your father and his pet to soak in the Fountain of Life for ten minutes. It has benefited a lot, and she has also let her only daughter, Lanaya, go out with your father to the trial. After your father founded the city in the graveyard of the gods, Lanaya has also stayed in Dragon City. After your father's accident, she didn't leave until ten years ago, when she received a secret letter from the elves, and she hurriedly returned to the Elemental Jungle. β
"So, as long as you can reach the Elemental Jungle safely, I don't think the matter of the Fountain of Life is a big deal. However, with your current strength, it is still a bit difficult to go to the Elemental Jungle, the nearest distance is to start from the Graveyard of the Gods, go all the way to the east, where you found the Tree of Chaos, continue to the east, enter the Divine Dragon Canyon, and after crossing the Divine Dragon Canyon, you can reach the Elemental Jungle to the south. β
"Well, Grandpa Lu Qin, if there are other roads, it doesn't matter if it's far away."
The Graveyard of the Gods, Li Nian didn't want to go to the second time, those disgusting plant monsters in the ancient jungle made him still have palpitations in his heart, not to mention that he had to cross the Shenlong Canyon, that place was not a good place when he heard it.
"Yes, but then it will be farther away, if you start from Qinglong City, you will go all the way north into Wanglongyuan, along Wanglongyuan to the east, into Yunmengze, to the north, into Chaxi Town, through Chaxi Town, to the south of the Elemental Jungle."
"But don't be too careless, although the monsters on this route are not as powerful as the Graveyard of the Gods and the Divine Dragon Canyon, it is not something you can ignore now, Wanglongyuan is okay, there are some wurms, but the monsters in Yunmengze are above level 60, and there is a powerful Northern Hades Lich in the mysterious altar in the center, you have to be extra careful, try not to pass through the middle, it should be safe to reach Chaxi Town, there are a large number of Chaxi spirit monkeys living there, but they generally do not take the initiative to attack humans, And the villagers in the town are still very hospitable, by the way, their fairy peony tea is very famous, you can try it. β
"Okay, I see, if nothing else, I'll take my leave."
Leaving the City Lord's Mansion, Li Nian came to the grocery store and found the merchant Zhang Cheng, but the Huicheng scroll in the pΓΉ of the Qinglong City store was already sold out.
"Uncle Zhang, how is the scroll back to the city?"
"I did less than 50 today."
"Why is there so little, didn't Chief Manager Lu Qin arrange manpower for you?"
Before the teleportation array was opened, the only means for Dragon Teng City to communicate with the outside world was the return to the city scroll, once there was no return to the city scroll, then the revival of Dragon Teng City would be impossible.
"That's not it, now there are enough people, but because many people have left, there are fewer and fewer people in Longteng City who know how to plant, and the paper used to return to the city scroll needs kapok, and planting kapok requires level 7 planting techniques, and now there are only two people in Longteng City who can plant, so this plant is extremely scarce."
"So what to do?"
"You can go to the tavern and post a job posting, although Dragon City has declined, but the prestige of the past is still there, as long as the salary is high enough, someone will come."
Does the tavern still have this function?
Although he was a little puzzled, Li Nian still came to the tavern, it may be that the army has already gone on an expedition to the Ice and Snow City, and there is not a single customer in the tavern, but Xue Xin is still busy in the tavern.
"Grandma Xuexin, you're busy."
"Nianzi, why did you think about coming to me today, your master has already gone to the Ice and Snow City, and you won't be able to find him in a short time."
"Grandma Xuexin, I'm not here to find him, but to ask you about recruitment."
"Recruitment? Who are you hiring? β
"I want to recruit a few farmers, and the planting skills are required to be level 7 or above."
"This requirement is not low, how did you think of recruiting farmers, it seems that the current food in Longteng City is still enough."
"I didn't recruit them to grow grain, but to grow kapok, which Uncle Zhang Cheng needed to make zuΓ² scrolls back to the city."
"That's right, okay, then I'll introduce you to the tavern's hiring function by the way, the higher the level of the tavern, the shorter the cooldown time of the tavern, the more powerful NPCs can be hired, and of course the cost will increase significantly. The current tavern is already level 4, and it can summon up to level 7 life occupations, or combat occupations below the immortal level, but the cost is not low, the handling fee is 1 gold coin, are you sure you want to hire, once the employment starts, it can't be canceled. β
"Of course, if you want to pay for it, it's 1 gold coin a month."
"The little city lord is really generous, okay, I've hung up, the time is a month, if no one comes to apply within a month, then the handling fee will return 80% to you."
"Okay, thank you, Grandma Xuexin."
Coming out of the tavern, Li Nian went offline directly, rested for a while, and prepared to concentrate on the task of the elemental jungle.
"Lao Zhao, I heard that your daughter was kidnapped by those two killers, how is it, she is not injured, right?"
"Hey, it's a fluke, Xiaojie was rescued, otherwise, I would really be an orphaned old man."
"Who is this person who can rescue your daughter from those two killers? Your subordinates? β
"Wang Guo'an, Wang Guo'an, I'll just say where did your old guy come from to be leisurely, he came all the way from the capital, it turned out to be for this, my daughter almost died, you don't even ask, you can get out, waste Lao Tzu's high-grade hair."
"Lao Zhao, I haven't seen you for so many years and you are still so irritable, although Tong Yaqian, who we chased together, can be regarded as rivals in love, but you and Yaqian are married and have children, and I also have my wife and children, I know what the status of children is for my father, but didn't I see Xiaojie when I came, seeing her jumping around, it shouldn't be a big deal, so I didn't ask."
"When you say that, I'm also a little puzzled, because I transferred her from the criminal police team to the traffic police team, she has been messing with me all the time, and she hasn't spoken to me for several days, but since the kidnapping happened, she has come home like a different person, and she is much more cheerful."
"This is also normal, it is estimated that I am spoiled when I am young, I am a little selfish, and I don't want to be managed by others, so I am worried about you forcibly transferring her out of the criminal police team, but after this kidnapping, I have suffered a little, and I must have understood your good intentions."
"I hope so. Let's get down to business, if you want to dig the foot of the wall, then you are probably going to be disappointed, the person who saved my daughter is not from our army, nor from other troops, not even a policeman. β
"How is that possible! Although the doctor and the cannon are not strong in single combat ability, but the two cooperate tacitly, and their strength in the hands of God is definitely among the best, and they have performed hundreds of missions without missing a beat, and there will be no more than five people in your army who can resist them! β
"But that's the case, it's also to blame the two of them for picking each other, they actually hid in the moonlight lake, the person who just happened to save my daughter was very good in water, and he didn't fight head-on, but subdued the two of them with water, and blamed him for his lack of experience, otherwise the doctor wouldn't have been able to run, he suffocated the doctor, he thought he was dead, and didn't pay attention to it, but the doctor was pretending to be dead, and when he left, he put on a diving suit and ran away."
"Are you sure?"
"Yes, the guy nicknamed Cannon, had too much equipment on his body when he fell into the water, and he sank directly to the bottom of the lake, and we have fished it up, and the dead can't die anymore. But the doctor ran away, and we searched for a long time without finding any trace of him. And I haven't found out what their goal of entering the middle state is. (To be continued......)
