Chapter 0016: Departure
"The outer suburbs have arrived!"
After the motorized rail car arrived at the last station, it slowly stopped, Lin Chen put away the communication device, and walked out of the station with the uncrowded crowd!
Along the way, he was learning about the bounty mission information released by Zhou Zhiqi, and in his opinion, this mission was not too dangerous. Although they were going to hunt second-order crystal beasts, they were only responsible for helping to clean up some ordinary crystal beasts and stripping elemental crystals, so the bounty of 100,000 crystal walls in five days could be said to be very generous for ordinary students like them!
The only problem is that five is too many! And he needs this opportunity to enter the grain boundary too much, so he is a little anxious and worried!
After all, this is the only chance he has to enter the grain realm in the open!
As for the credibility of the bounty, he was not even more worried, with the status of the Zhou family in Luoshan City, he would definitely not cheat because of this money.
From the time crossing to the present, Lin Chen had already digested all the memory information in Lin Chen's mind, and he also had a very clear understanding of the forces in Luoshan City!
Luoshan City is only a town-level city in China, and there is no army stationed in a small city of this level, and there is no mayor, so it is basically controlled by the Zhou family and the other Bai family!
The two family forces usually seem to live in harmony on the surface and jointly manage Luoshan City, but secretly they compete fiercely and suppress each other, and they all want to be dominant!
And this situation is not only Luoshan City, like the surrounding Qiuyang City, Lingshan City, etc., as long as it is a town-level city under the jurisdiction of Nanyu City, it is controlled by various family and group forces.
Nanyu City is like the leader, and more than a dozen town-level cities in the hills of Nanyu are all under its control!
Because Nanyu City is a real city, it has a huge army, mecha army, super crystal weapons, and a strict military rank management system!
Although this is the 28th century, the earth has experienced the invasion of desolate demons, and the country of Huaxia has changed greatly, but the way cities and their cores are managed is still similar to that of provinces, cities, and counties before the 22nd century!
Looking at the dark road around him, Lin Chen put away his thoughts, took out the communication device and looked at the time, and found that it was already more than nine o'clock, so he quickly quickened his pace and walked towards home, at this time, his parents and sister were still waiting for him to go back to eat.
As for the bounty mission, he can only pray that he is lucky!
……
"Squeak!"
Pushing open the rusty iron door, the familiar scene inside came into Lin Chen's eyes.
In the small living room, there is a square dining table, the food has been placed on the table, the parents are sitting on the left and right sides with a slightly anxious expression, and the younger sister Lin Xue is facing the door, dragging her little head with her left hand, and holding chopsticks in her right hand from time to time knocking on the porcelain bowl in front of her, looking hungry!
When the family heard the door opened, they all looked over.
"Brother! You're back, and if you don't come back, they'll starve to death!" Lin Xue's excited little face had a hint of grievance.
"You girl, your brother came back from school so late, you can't let him save some snacks!" Liu Wan next to her first glanced at her, then quickly got up and went to the kitchen to cook, and said to Lin Chen, who walked in, "Are you hungry?" Hurry up and wash your hands and eat! ”
Seeing that the family was waiting for him, Lin Chen was a little embarrassed and said, "Mom, you really don't have to wait for me, I'll just eat as much as I want when I come back!" ”
In the kitchen, after Liu Wan finished all the rice, she brought it out and said: "Your father and I are not hungry, it's okay to eat a little late, Xiaoxue is poor, you don't have to pay attention to her!" ”
"......" Lin Chen knew that he couldn't do it, so he had to close his mouth and return to his place after washing his hands. But at this time, his heart was full of emotion.
Lin Deming, who was sitting on the left side, didn't say a word, as if he was still worried about the events of the past two days, but the injury in his left leg was much better than last week.
At this time, Xiao Lin Xue, who was hungry, saw that Liu Wan had beaten all the rice, quickly picked up the chopsticks, and devoured the vegetables while holding the vegetables, and said with a little mouth that was a little indistinct: "Brother, why did you come back so late these days!" Mom has to wait for you to come back before she can eat, but she starves them! ”
Lin Chen looked at the grievances on her cute little face, and suddenly stretched out his hand in distress, touched her head and said, "The school has assigned a task, and if you break through your physical fitness, you will be rewarded, so you will stay where to cultivate!" ”
"Next time you're hungry, you can eat it directly, don't wait for me!"
"Well, it's still my brother who loves me the most, and my parents don't feel sorry for me at all!"
"But you still have to wait for you to eat together, otherwise the rice will be cold, and you will have a bad stomach if you eat it!"
……
Originally, the rice and vegetables were very ordinary, but Lin Chen felt that they were very delicious, especially in the warm atmosphere of the family, which made him feel like he was better than all the delicacies of the mountains and seas.
After the meal, it was already more than ten o'clock, Lin Chen simply took a bath, dragged his tired body after a day of training, and fell asleep on the bed.
****************************
"Didi-"
"Didi-Bounty Reply: Registration Successful!"
"Please note that the mission time has been advanced!"
I don't know how long it took, Lin Chen, who was asleep, was suddenly woken up by the sound of the bedside communication device. Picking up the communicator in a daze, looking at the time display on it, 02:14, he was speechless: "Who is it so late?" ”
"Forget it, I'm so sleepy... It doesn't matter who he is... Let's talk about it tomorrow! ”
Just as he was about to stuff the communicator under his pillow with an irritated face, the prompt beep sounded again!
"Tick-"
"100,000 crystals have arrived!"
“??? 100,000 crystals arrived? I'm not dreaming, am I? Lin Chen, who was originally in a daze, came to his senses in an instant, opened the communication device and looked at the virtual window of the promotion of the arrival of the 100,000 crystal coins just sent, he was stunned!
"Smack! It hurts... This dream is a bit real! ”
"No, it's true! Could it be that the transfer was transferred to my account by mistake? ”
Lin Chen hurriedly popped up the window, clicked on the transfer information, and viewed the information of the transferor!
"Han Qing? Han Qing, a student of the advanced class? How is he? ”
As soon as I opened it, the prompt window of the communicator popped up! Among them, the window for the reward reply and the prompt window for the task time advance were presented in front of Lin Chen.
"It turns out... This is the bounty for the bounty mission, and I actually... Successful registration? Lin Chen was very excited about this sudden surprise, and at the same time he was a little incredulous, he didn't expect that he could really sign up!
Because whether it is in terms of registration time or physical performance, he has no advantage at all!
It took a few minutes for him to suppress his excitement and begin to look at the translucent window in front of him, and after checking them all, he was a little confused. Although he didn't take the bounty task, he still knew the rules, and generally the employer would give the bounty after the task was completed.
"The mission is ahead of schedule... Changed to half past five this morning? Isn't it Friday? ”
And the mission time was supposed to be Saturday, which was suddenly a day earlier, which also caught him off guard!
Just then, the communicator received another voice. Lin Chen clicked on it and found that it was the transferor Han Qing.
"The mission is temporarily advanced, gather at the motorized rail station in the western suburbs at half past five this morning, and return the bounty in advance if you can't arrive!"
The boy's voice in the voice was not domineering, but it sounded very gentle, but Lin Chen knew that this was a warning for a change of direction!
If the bounty is not returned, he doesn't have to think about it to know the consequences!
When signing up, he entered his identity information through the identity chip, which is why Han Qing was able to transfer the bounty to himself. If you swallow it alone, it is estimated that you will be chased and killed by the Zhou family in the future! After all, this is Zhou Zhiqi's money, Han Qing is just a transferor, he doesn't have the courage to play with his life like this!
After thinking about this, Lin Chen's gaze became firm and said, "Since that's the case, let's go!" ”
Because this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to enter the Crystal Realm was not only very important to him, but also the bounty of 100,000 Crystal Coins was just used to raise money for Lin Xue's tuition, so he had no reason to refuse no matter what!
The only problem at present is that the task is suddenly advanced, he can't go to school today, and he can't contact Hou Jinglin to ask for leave at this time.
"Forget it, the punishment is already like this anyway, and it's not bad this time!"
Thinking like this, Lin Chen sent a message to his good brother Jiang Zhihui, asking him to ask for a leave of absence for himself after arriving at school in the morning!
As for the words at home......
Just after four o'clock in the morning, Lin Chen had already finished washing, and he looked at the dark and handsome face with broken hair in the mirror on the sink, and smiled slightly. Although he looks a little immature because of his age, he is already very satisfied!
Later, in order not to disturb his parents' rest, he just secretly sent a few messages to his mother Liu Wan, informing her that he was going out for a few days and that he didn't have to worry about following the school to do some tasks.
And the bounty of 100,000 yuan has also been transferred to Liu Wan through the communicator.
After doing all this, he quietly went out of the house!
