Chapter 5 Labor Dispatch Contracts
A big night's dream.
After waking up, the first thing Gu Jiancheng did was rush downstairs.
He snatched the paper and pen of the bookkeeper in the hotel, wrote down the content he had written down completely, added the translation, tore off the paper, stuffed it into his arms, and threw a copper coin to the bookkeeper to soothe her heart.
The bookkeeper who was still in a daze, pinched the copper coin in her hand, looked at the figure of this handsome guest leaving in a hurry, and there was only one thought left in her heart-
It's so picky......
β¦β¦
Hurriedly ran to the Hunters' Guild garrison branch, and exchanged his merits for an expedited delivery right.
"Mr. Gu, it's really unfortunate, there was a notice from above just an hour ago, the route to the imperial capital has been congested recently, and I'm afraid it will take a month for your letter to be delivered."
The staff is embarrassed.
Gu Jiancheng privately handed over the two copper coins and his hunter's card.
The staff carried it into their arms without leaving a trace.
At a glance, when he saw that it was a copper coin, the window worker's face was obviously distorted, and he looked extremely ugly.
But after opening the hunter's card, he was silent for a moment, and then showed a bright smile comparable to when he received the "gold coin", indicating that you are really lucky! In a while, there will be a resource transport ship that will go directly to the headquarters, and the route will pass through us, and we will be able to reach the imperial capital within a week!
Gu Jiancheng nodded with satisfaction, and then emphasized: "This is a private letter. β
The staff immediately looked serious, saying that within the guild, private letters were sacrosanct.
Gu Jiancheng left satisfied, and walked out of the Hunter Guild.
He was now 100% sure that something strange had happened to him, and that it had something to do with the uninvited guest on his arm.
The second drowsiness hit in the morning, and the moment he closed his eyes, he saw a sinuous black shadow on the ceiling, connecting end to end, forming a circle.
It was clearly a snake with its head and tail attached.
In the girl's room in the dream, he saw that almost every object had a long snake with its head and tail attached.
Referring to the habits of the various families in the empire, and then following the principle of human commonality, it may be the emblem of the family power behind the girl.
This type of emblem is often the most important symbol of a family, such as faith.
Thinking of what the fat man said in the early morning, Gu Jiancheng thought of a possibility.
What he saw in his dream could be the real "believer" of the Great Abyss, the imperial civilization under the Great Abyss God Lineage?
So, the "Great Majesty" in the diary refers to the King of the Great Abyss?
Gu Jiancheng rolled up his sleeves.
I don't know if it's an illusion, but the ancient snake mark on his arm looks a little dull compared to yesterday.
Is it this ancient god who leads him into this strange dream in some form that he "clings" to his arm?
What is Him, or what is Their purpose?
This was the heart of everything that was happening in front of him, and it was the first thing he wanted to figure out.
Pulling up his sleeves, Gu Jiancheng glanced at the sky and began to think about what the preconditions were needed to enter that particular dream.
He decided to take the initiative.
It is unlikely that you will simply fall asleep, after all, two strange dreams are accompanied by strong and special sleepiness, but for the time being, remember that you will go to the pharmacy to buy some sleeping drugs to try.
The biggest possibility is still the one on the arm.
It's just that the other party has no intention of communicating for the time being......
Gu Jiancheng began to think about the feasibility of holding a ceremony.
What would happen if you presided over the ritual circle that summoned the King of the Abyss?
Will this suspected lost Root Old God respond to himself?
It's well worth trying!
If you continue like this, maybe one day you will really become a believer in the Great Abyss......
Suppressing the restlessness in his heart, Gu Jiancheng began to look for a place to stay, he needed a blank piece of paper and a pen to list his endless "inspiration".
A few steps out of the guild, he suddenly raised his head, his gaze locked on a black dot in the distant sky that was gradually enlarged.
It was a floating airship hundreds of meters long.
Gu Jiancheng lost his mind for a moment, and remembered the airships he saw in his dream.
The airship in the dream seems to be much more advanced than the Empire's, but it is also much more broken, as if it has fallen into disrepair.
The airship gradually lowered its altitude, and the overwhelming shadow shrouded from above, and finally stopped, Gu Jiancheng raised his head against the strong wind, he guessed correctly, it was really coming at him.
Hovering in the air more than 100 meters, someone jumped down from the airship and landed exactly three meters in front of Gu Jiancheng.
Jumping down a hundred meters, the place where he landed was only slightly sunken, there was no gravel splashing, and even the dust was only slightly raised, this unloading force made Gu Jiancheng's pupils shrink.
"You are Gu Jiancheng? Come with us, you've got it. β
Gu Jiancheng: "......"
It's broken, it's happening to you!
The rough and bold voice was hoarse, and the person who came unceremoniously reached out and grabbed Gu Jiancheng's shoulder.
The other party was not good, and Gu Jiancheng was naturally not polite.
"Huh?"
The bald man in a standard costume stared slightly.
He grabbed this shoulder to hold this son's shoulder, but he never thought that the other party didn't dodge, but grabbed it himself?
"The third-order Qi Chaos Realm, there really are some doorways!" The man said in a deep voice.
Gu Jiancheng scolded secretly in his heart, just one night, where did the dead fat man spread this rumor?
He unceremoniously moved out of his backstage and focused on a fight backstage.
"Family Teacher Ji Langlan!"
Hearing such an undisguised "threat", the bald man twitched the corner of his eyes and took a deep breath:
ββ¦β¦ We are from the Ministry of the Sacraments, and no matter how powerful Ji Shuai is in the court, he can't control us. β
Sacramental Ministry?
Thinking of the fat man's "popular science" last night, Gu Jiancheng inexplicably had a bad premonition in his heart.
Doesn't it mean that Hiss is going to enter the sacramental ministry, and everyone will be their own people from now on?
Why did the Sacramental Congregation come to trouble me overnight?
He tried to say the code: "My brother Heath Arthur has the posture of a patriarch. β
The bald man looked at him unkindly and said: "Don't shout, Heath Arthur collided with [Top of the Stars], the crime has been decided, and he will be arrested and brought to justice from now on, the crime of your accomplice has been discovered, come with us honestly!" β
βοΌβ
Gu Jiancheng stared at the other party's face for a long time, and said coldly: "In the battle of factions, those who fight the strikers generally die the worst." β
The bald man's face was gloomy for an instant, and he shouted: "What nonsense, we all act according to the rules, and the whole process is monitored and recorded, you better be caught obediently!" β
"Do things according to the rules?" Gu Jiancheng said thoughtfully, "What about the arrest warrant?" β
The bald man raised his head and yelled, "What about Lao Tzu's arrest warrant?" β
Someone above responded angrily: "Damn the secret mission last night, where did you get the arrest warrant?" No! β
The bald man said calmly: "Heard? No. β
"That's going to be hard." Gu Jiancheng spread his hands and said, "I'm also in the military department, even if you are a member of the sacrament department, if you want to take me, you have to go through the process, right?" β
The bald man also said thoughtfully: "You are still in the military department?" That's right, it's Ji Shuai's student. This is difficult, and you really have to go through the process, otherwise it will be bad to have cross-departmental disputes. β
He raised his eyebrows and snorted coldly: "Count yourself lucky!" Also, don't think that I can't do anything about you without an arrest warrant for the time being, you can get away with it, the elite army of the Ruling Office has been sent to arrest you, and you can reach this level tonight at the earliest! β
With that, he was about to leave.
"Your Excellency is so threatening, when I am a soft persimmon with no background?" Gu Jiancheng suddenly, "If you have the guts, you will leave a name!" β
The bald man was stunned, and snorted coldly: "A certain family will not change its name and sit or change its surname, a thousand extremes!" β
With that, he leaped forward, shot out like a cannonball, and grabbed the cable dropped by the airship.
This guy came in a hurry, and he walked exceptionally neatly.
In the dust raised, Gu Jiancheng was still standing in place.
He watched the airship leave, and his gaze gradually sank.
This seemingly headless and absurd farce was a letter of surrender specially presented by the other party, under the guise of arrest.
He finally asked for the other party's name, which means that he accepted this love.
The competition within the Sacramental Congregation has begun.
The "enthronement" of the fourth patriarch is far from being as simple as the fat man said.
There are many people who choose to support Hiss, the new dependent, and the one just now is one of them.
And the "encirclement and suppression" against Hiss and everyone around him has also begun, and he is the pond fish that has been affected.
This means that the Sacramental Ministry, or simply the Inquisition, does not want to see the appearance of the new family of the Heath.
That's intriguing.
According to what the fat man said yesterday, the Empire is the standard [Star Faction].
As a member of the stars, Hiss can be said to be the orthodoxy of orthodoxy, who would dare to disdain the family of the stars?
The storm is coming...... Gu Jiancheng muttered, thinking about what to do next.
According to the strong man's letter just now, the people from the Ruling Office will be able to reach the lower continent tonight at the earliest, and it seems that it is necessary for him to run away with the fat man as soon as possible.
As long as they hide in the spiritual realm, no matter how many means the people in the Inquisition are, they will not be able to find themselves.
Passing by the medical hall, Gu Jiancheng bought a few sleeping pills.
He didn't rush back to the hotel as soon as possible, but returned to the basement where the cultists were arrested yesterday.
The place was already empty, and the scene was a mess, and the original sacrificial array patterns on the ground were rudely smeared.
Gu Jiancheng walked into the basement, looked around and checked around, and walked around again, but found nothing abnormal.
He stood in front of the shattered fragment of the bronze mirror, carefully crouched down, and picked up a fragment.
The mirror fragments reflected his face, but it didn't show the same as yesterday.
This is also to be expected.
Gu Jiancheng came to the front of the spatial rift that appeared yesterday.
He suddenly felt the urge to do the [sacrifice] again here.
Suppressing the restlessness, Gu Jiancheng was just about to leave when he heard a sound similar to ice breaking.
He stopped in the middle of the basement and slowly looked back.
The shards of the bronze mirror scattered on the ground trembled violently, as if there was an earthquake.
And suddenlyβ
The fragments of the bronze mirror that were already shattered all over the place exploded one by one!
Billowing black smoke came out of the lenses, as if someone had used it as a medium to open a path.
Gu Jiancheng had already retreated to the door of the basement, his expression was ugly.
He had heard that beings outside of this dimension needed to pass through a certain medium in order to enter this world, and the mirror was one of the most commonly used mediums.
But why, when I returned to this place?
A green tentacle poked out of the black mist, cruising and swaying in the air.
At first glance, it's a little inexplicably cute.,In addition to the color, it's a little unpleasant.γ
But Gu Jiancheng couldn't help but wipe the sweat from his forehead.
He wanted to run away when the tentacle stretched out, he had retreated to the gate before, ready to run at any time, but when he turned to run just now, he slammed into a corrugated barrier like a curtain of water.
The back road is blocked!
As more and more tentacles entered the present world, the space in which Gu Jiancheng was located gradually changed, and black mist covered the four corners of the walls and the ground.
A huge one-eyed eye opened in front of Gu Jiancheng's eyes.
The green eyelids drooped open, and there was a circle of mouth-like fangs around the eyeballs, some kind of mucusβI don't know if it was tears or saliva before eating the meat, was dripping down the fangs, and he stared at Gu Jiancheng without blinking.
This strange shape made Gu Jiancheng recognize the other party's true identity at the first time.
One of the Six Sovereigns of the Spirit Realm, the [Lord of the Eye Demons] Goras!
Gu Jiancheng only felt that his scalp was numb, because this was a real demon god!
As one of the only surviving abyssal demon gods in the world, his atrocities and evil deeds are at least at the level of a child's cry, but isn't he entrenched in the depths of the spirit world all year round, and even the call of the [Great One] has never been heeded?
Why is He here at this time?
A demon god of this level, even if ordinary people just look at it, they will be infected into madness by its personality and spiritual pollution that is far higher than ordinary people!
Well...... How many times have you seen it?
At this moment, the Eye Demon Gorath floated over, and there was an inexplicable sense of familiarity in his movements, and Gu Jiancheng forgot how to describe it for a while.
I just feel ...... It looks a lot like the head of the Chamber of Commerce yesterday.
The next moment, two tentacles were placed on his shoulders, one left and one right, and a cold aura shrouded down, with its own cooling effect, and the originally huge body shrank in the process of floating, and the whole was directly suspended on Gu Jiancheng's body.
The one-eyed crescent moon was watery, and it narrowed in a deep breath, as if it had taken a deep breath of fairy breath, except for the two tentacles on its shoulders, the rest of the tentacles danced in the air.
Gu Jiancheng: (a''one)
He remembered why it was familiar.
This guy floated over, just like the person in charge yesterday when he came running.
A chaotic mental thought suddenly poured into Gu Jiancheng's mind.
"Your Majesty Konstantin, you're finally back."
There is no sound, pure spiritual communication.
Gu Jiancheng was shocked that he had not been polluted or even assimilated under this spiritual pollution.
This kind of demon god, the pollution of the spiritual level alone is enough to destroy a world.
If he wants to compete, according to today's general transcendent system, the third-level source power is the first order, and he must at least reach the seventh order, that is, the 19-level threshold, to sublimate his spirituality to the level of never falling, and he is currently only at the ninth level, the peak of the third order.
Yourself strengthened?
Gu Jiancheng's heart suddenly appeared with the ancient snake mark on his arm.
At this time, the two tentacles on the shoulders came with the feeling of "massage".
Gu Jiancheng glanced at it, very attentive, diligently making him feel uneasy.
So...... Who is His Majesty Konstantin?
"Your Majesty Constantine, I came as soon as I felt the breath that belonged to you, and you said last time we parted, when you came back, we could sign a new contract."
Sign...... New contract?
Golas's two tentacles flipped through the void and found a thick pile of paperwork and handed it to Gu Jiancheng:
"Your Majesty Konstantin, the probationary period came eleven years ago, you see, it's time for us to get a brand new contract?"
Under the watery one-eyed gaze full of anticipation, Gu Jiancheng looked at the title at the top of the contract in front of him and chose to be silent.
-- "Obuchi Pro-Plate Labor Dispatch Contract"
