Chen Yan came out of the office relaxed, first went to the task handover to go through the settlement procedures, and then came to the lounge leisurely. There were already a few maids waiting there and took off their robes for Chen Yan. Serve drinks.

The lounge of the Demon Hunting Lodge is luxurious, with ornate carpets on the floor and quaint reliefs next to them. A huge mural hangs on the opposite wall, covered in dark colors.

Chen Yan looked at it for a while and found that it seemed to be a mural with a demon theme. The mural may be a few years old, the picture is very blurry, and the tone is maddeningly dull. But the artistic conception in it made Chen Yan feel very interesting. It seems to be a scene of mass sacrifice. Countless people are kneeling on the vast plain, and in the middle is a huge monument. The author of the mural does not seem to have a good grasp of space, and the stele is obviously too large, making it seem that the people below are extremely small.

Chen Yan noticed that the 'individuals' who bowed down were not only humans, but also other races and demons. This shows that the stele is a very important prop. But because the picture is too blurry, he can't see clearly.

"Really...... Curious. ”

"Nothing curious, it's a pillar." A voice sounded behind Chen Yan, and Chen Yan turned his head and saw a beautiful woman.

This is a mature woman with a bumpy figure and long, wavy blond hair. She wears a dark red professional outfit and a pair of rimless glasses, and looks very intellectually beautiful. Noticing Chen Yan's scrutinizing gaze, she only nodded and sat opposite Chen Yan.

"I'm your assistant, you can call me Jessica."

"It's a nice name, and it goes well with you." Chen Yan replied with a smile, suddenly reached out and grabbed it in the void, and a rose came out between his fingers. "For you, beautiful lady."

"Is that how you please girls?" Jessica glanced at the rose in Chen Yan's hand. Then open the document with your head down. "Next time, don't spend on the decoration of the front desk, those will cost money."

"............" Chen Yan was speechless for a while. But he wasn't embarrassed, and he smiled and threw the rose into the vase next to him. Then bring up the previous topic.

"You say that's a pillar?"

"That's right, a gateway to the Upper Realm." Jessica looked up and pushed her glasses. "There should be something in the traveler's knowledge. It's just not too detailed. ”

"Oh?" A gleam flashed in Chen Yan's eyes. "My knowledge is not comprehensive enough, do you have the details of it?"

"I can give it to you in a moment. But hopefully you don't expect too much. The boundary pillars of the Hui River Basin have been closed for a long time. You won't get any clues. Jessica replied, then pushed the document down in front of Chen Yan. Now let's talk about work. You've passed the test, and you should know the duties of a witcher. This is a list of your permissions with resources and privileges that you can claim. I need to remind you that there is a limit to the support that the Demon Hunter Hut can give you. If you can't grow quickly, you're likely to be abandoned. ”

"Sounds interesting." Chen Yan smiled, then picked up the document and read it. The dense details made him very comfortable. Isn't that what he became a witcher for? If it wasn't for the pursuit of more resources and privileges, why did he return to killing?

The document was very long, and Chen Yan only glanced at it briefly and put it down. "What is Leah doing?"

"She has recently been studying management with Emily. Be prepared to participate in the day-to-day work of the cottage. If she goes well, you'll soon have to get a new assistant. I'm just temporary. Jessica replied, with a calm face. This was specially ordered by Ms. Emily. ”

"It doesn't sound like the she-tyrannosaurus at all."

"It's just that you don't know her yet. Ms. Emily is a very conscientious branch president. There won't be any emotions when it comes to work. But with all due respect, she seems to have some opinion of you. ”

"Not as if, but as a fact." Chen Yan said with a smile and handed Jessica a wine glass. "Would you like some?"

"Nope. I don't drink alcohol at work. ”

"Shall we have a drink in the evening?"

"It depends on the mood, I'm not in a good mood for the time being." Jessica said, expressionless on her face. "Now I kind of understand why Ms. Jessica has an opinion about you."

As she spoke, she began to put away the things on the table, and then pushed a card down in front of Chen Yan. "It's just our first meeting, so there's not much to explain. This is your function card, and you need it to enjoy the services of the cottage. Of course, that also includes finding a girl who can drink with you. In addition, you will have to take a test to determine your official grade. I've heard about you and Udias. The cottage expects a lot from you. ”

"I didn't hit him." Chen Yan said with a smile.

"It's not just a victory that's a victory." Jessica pushed her glasses and said seriously. "It's more than I expected you to come back alive from his hands."

"It doesn't sound like a compliment." Chen Yan smiled a little wryly, and recalled the scene of fighting with Udias, and couldn't help but be a little afraid. It was really dancing on the tip of a knife, and he couldn't sit down at the slightest mistake.

At this time, Jessica also finished packing her things and continued. "The Demon Hunter Hut is not absolutely binding on the official Demon Hunter, only the quest release permission. However, please note that not all tasks can be declined, and every year you will have a mandatory task quota that you can choose the corresponding tasks yourself. Points will be deducted if you fail or refuse. Multiple failures will result in a downgrade or re-eligibility. In addition, self-selected tasks are also the main way to collect points. If you want to get more services, you have to contribute more. ”

Speaking of this, Jessica stopped and looked at Chen Yan seriously for a while before aggravating her tone. "I know that the witchers are strong and confident, and that you may no longer represent the Stelle outpost one day, but I want you to know how much sacrifice the people here have sacrificed for you. They do not want a master on high, but a messenger who can save them in times of crisis. ”

"Don't let us down."

After speaking, Jessica got up and saluted Chen Yan, picked up the document and walked out of the room.

Looking at her graceful back, Chen Yan's gaze deepened...... Gradually, I turned to the mural next to it. "You don't need an emperor, you need a savior."

"It's a pity, I'm afraid I can't be your fellow traveler......"

Chen Yan looked at the mural, his eyes gradually fiery.

"The Upper Realm."

"Here...... Just a starting point. ”
