Chapter 23 Employees

The tea shop called Midsummer always has a fresh and timeless fragrance of tea, and the whispering fairy arias gently echo in the shop, and the exotic flowers and plants placed everywhere sway and sway with the ups and downs of the melody.

A few seven or eight customers sat scattered around the shop, drinking tea or chatting, but most of them spoke softly and in a soothing tone, as if they were interested in maintaining the tranquility of this remote shop.

In the corner of the shop, Xiyue, who was still continuing to explain, also maintained a soft tone, but it was just enough for Xu Yue to hear clearly.

"The Central District is the core of the park, and the entire park city is also built around the Central District, built by generations of contractors and workers."

"Only the characteristic buildings here are created by the park itself, and they have the ability to transform people."

Although it has been explained many times, every time it is the turn of this link, Xiyue's eyes still can't help but have a trace of eagerness.

"Attribute Enhancement Hall, Equipment Enhancement Hall, Skill Upgrade Hall, Arena, Proving Ground......"

Every time Yuki says a name, a building flies out of the virtual central area of the city on the table.

"These special buildings have become the foundation for the growing strength of all contractors."

"Of course, there is definitely more to the special architecture of the Central District, but at this stage, that's all we can get in touch with."

"That's probably the case in the central area, and the rest are some special areas in the park."

After explaining the central area, Xiyue sat back in her seat, bit the straw, moistened her throat with some dry hair, and continued to point to the virtual city:

"This is the Machinery Street, most of the technological creations can be found here, from small guns and short cannons, to large nuclear bomb mechas, as long as you have enough Paradise Coins, you can buy them, and my tablet is also customized there."

"Here are the other two large trading markets, plus the Tongtian Lance Plaza, the three of them almost cover 80% of the equipment trading volume of the entire paradise city, but these two places are far away from us, in fact, the Tongtian Lance Plaza is completely enough to meet your purchase and sale needs, unless the things you need are extremely rare."

"This is a food court, where countless world delicacies gather, the spirit of the halberd, the Chinese master, the captive of food and other special delicacies of the world are all competing here, and the dragon liver and phoenix marrow are not empty words."

"This is the ...... of Forge Street"

After a full hour of talking, Xiyue gave an overview of the many areas in the paradise city, fame, power, and various taboos.

After taking a long breath of relief, Xiyue looked at the water cup that had already dried up with a frowning face, hesitated for a moment, and then looked in front of Xu Yue, and found that his green shade was only half drunk, and his heart was slightly happy, so he turned his head to face the bar.

"Sister Yunling, please have another cup of green shade, thank you!"

"Wait a minute."

While waiting, Xiyue had already retracted the virtual city on the table, waiting for Xu Yue to slowly digest the information just now.

After a while, Xiyue, who had already picked up the straw again, looked at Xu Yue's originally slightly closed eyes and opened, knowing that the other party had almost sorted it out, so she continued to speak.

"Little brother, is there anything else you don't know?"

"You said I could only stay in Paradise for three days?"

"Well, after the contractor completes the mission and leaves the derivative world, he only has a three-day stay in the park, after which he will be sent back to the real world."

"It will take about a week or so before it will be recalled again and start the next derivative world."

After listening to Xiyue's explanation, Xu Yue frowned slightly, compared to the dull and boring real world, he was more interested in this magical paradise city, but the stay time of only three days was too short, and he couldn't explore too many areas at all.

"Three days? Is there a way to increase dwell time? ”

"Well, the only way to do this is to work hard to survive and constantly improve your own level, and I heard that high-level contractors will stay longer, and there are even those who live in the park."

With that, Xiyue looked at Xu Yue's still frowning brow.

"Oh, don't be discouraged, since you have passed the contractor assessment task of the paradise, there will definitely be a few attribute points in your hand, and when the time comes, go to the attribute enhancement hall to strengthen it, and when you return to the real world, it will be the plot of the super soldier king returning to the city, the dragon king is back, hehe!"

As she spoke, Xiyue raised her eyebrows lightly, and it was not until she met Xu Yue's always flat eyes that she stopped the ambiguous smile that had just appeared at the corner of her lips.

'What a cold ......'

After muttering to herself, Xiyue coughed lightly twice to relieve her embarrassment, and said:

"In fact, there are many benefits in the real world, the place is larger, it is not easy to get into trouble, there are family and friends, and there is no need to spend the paradise coin......"

Xiyue counted the benefits of the real world one by one with her fingers, but her tone was obviously depressed when she mentioned the Paradise Coins.

Unlike contractors, who can only stay in the paradise for three days, workers are on the contrary, they only have three days a month to return to the real world, and it is not easy to live in paradise.

They spend most of their time in this paradise city, which is necessary to keep this huge city running.

They are blood, nourishment, and gear.

The employee is the failure of the first contractor assessment, and although he did not lose his life by luck, he also lost the qualification to become a contractor and became an employee.

Compared to the contractor's ten-day round of world quests, they will only go back and forth to the derivative world once every two months, and the park will not have too high requirements for them, they can mix in and survive.

It sounds like a good thing, but it's not, and Paradise's attitude towards them is somewhat similar to that of the naughty students in the school who are abandoned by the teacher, and behind the seemingly indulgent is extreme disregard.

All the gifts given by fate have already been secretly marked with a price.

Some of the park's permissions and special buildings are not open to workers, and their ways to improve their strength are very limited, and they can't cope with the bi-monthly world mission at all, so they can only rely on the contractor to survive, but this is undoubtedly to quench their thirst, and life and death are in the hands of others.

The lack of strength has led to the fact that workers can only survive in the face of the increasingly difficult derivative world, and they cannot do anything, and they cannot obtain resources normally like the contractor, not to mention, they will lose a lot of money.

In such a vicious circle, most workers are actually chasing after the fear of death, and they are struggling to survive in the predicament of lack of resources.

The only way out for them is to develop their skills.

Trade, machinery, blacksmithing, potions, even farming, food, games, entertainment

Only by possessing a skill, and doing the best, and becoming a truly competent employee, can you have the opportunity to regain the attention of the park, and even be re-promoted to the contractor.

This is the paradise of reincarnation, which is extremely cruel, but also extremely fair.

The strong live, and the weak die.

In Paradise, the definition of power is not so narrow as strength alone.

But if you can't write and don't do it, then I'm sorry, garbage has no value.

The more he understands all kinds of information about the paradise, the more Xu Yue understands the rules of survival in the paradise, heaven and earth are not benevolent, all things are used as dogs, and the core concept of paradise is that the weak eat the strong, and natural selection is competitive, and he agrees with this kind of cold justice.

On the other side of the small table, the tone of the setting moon's narration had gradually lowered and gradually fell silent.

Looking at the depth that was inadvertently revealed in Xu Yue's eyes when he was thinking, Xiyue was a little frightened, she was very familiar with this kind of gaze, it was a look unique to human slaughter.

Last time, the person with the same gaze almost killed through the derivative world where she was, and all the strong people with names and surnames were slaughtered, and it is no exaggeration to describe it as killing people and bleeding, she survived because she was too weak and did not arouse that person's interest, but her eyes on that person will never be forgotten.

Forcibly holding back the urge to tremble, Yuzuki rubbed her stiff face and tried to squeeze out a smile, ready to end the business early.

"Okay, now that we're done, it's time for us to talk about the cost."

"How much?"

"The explanation belongs to the product introduction, there is no charge, and the charge is this."

Yuzuki waved the tablet she was holding.

"What I just said is just a rough idea, the information contained in this tablet is more comprehensive, and it comes with the location of many rare shops in the city, and it also includes after-sales Oh, our chamber of commerce will update the data regularly."

"One-time payment, lifetime enjoyment, 100 paradise coins"

"Deal."

Looking at the girl opposite patting her chest and guaranteeing her, Xu Yue didn't bargain, this information is very comprehensive, and it is worth the price.

[Drop, you received 100 Paradise Coins from the contractor No. 13215.] 】

"Thank you boss!"

After seeing the Paradise Coin in her account, the previous fear was quickly forgotten by Xiyue, and after holding the tablet with both hands and handing it to Xu Yue with a smile, she took out a fancy magazine and a silver card again and put them on the table.

"Boss, here's the giveaway, the latest issue of the Park Express and the Park Pass."

"Paradise Express?"

Xu Yue was the first to pick up the magazine, and in addition to the four big characters of the Paradise Express, there were several lines of headlines arranged on the cover.

'Inventory of the top ten famous scenes of the park (with ultra-clear video)'

'Sand Sculpture of the Year'

"The grievances and hatreds that the God Emperor and the Blood Gate have to say"

'The annual Paradise Hurricane is about to start, there are no rules, no restrictions, as long as you are fast enough, strong enough, crazy enough, come and experience the real speed and passion!! ’

'The Storm Adventure Group recruits, don't disturb the weak. ’

"This thing seems to be interesting."

Xu Yue roughly flipped through it, the magazine was solid in thickness and rich in content, and the pictures in it were basically moving pictures, when he turned to the page where the adventure group was recruiting, the woman in the picture looked Xu Yue up and down, and even threw a wink at him, this magazine should have used the magic technology of the Harry Potter world.

After putting away the tablet and magazines, Xu Yue twisted the card on the table, the card was silver and white, and there was a flashing yellow logo in the middle part, which was a pattern similar to a steering wheel, and the number 10 was marked in the upper right corner.

"This pass was issued by the park?"

"No, Paradise doesn't care about these little things" Xiyue glanced at the silver card in Xu Yue's hand and continued:

"This pass is issued by the Rover Chamber of Commerce, 80% of the various vehicles in the park are provided by the Rover Chamber of Commerce, the pass card is just one of the small businesses, although these vehicles are not very useful for high-level contractors, but they are very popular in the lower class, after all, the park is too big, with our footsteps, it will take at least one or two hours from here to the central area, but it will take 10 minutes to get there with the pass, which is convenient and affordable."

"By the way, the hurricane competition mentioned in the express is also held by the Rover Chamber of Commerce, which is interesting, especially exciting, highly recommended!"

After mentioning the Hurricane Competition, Yuyue was obviously much more excited, which was a little contrasting with the original soft and cute appearance, and it seemed that he was also a restless master.

However, this is normal in the paradise, where the threat of death is always inseparable, and the high pressure of survival envelops everyone in the paradise equally, whether it is a worker, a contractor, or a hunter like Xu Yue.

In this high-pressure situation, everyone needs some outlet to vent, and in addition to the ever-crowded arena, all kinds of adrenaline-pumping thrill competitions have been born, and the Hurricane Race is one of them, and it is very popular.

Put away the attached passcard, Xu Yue is not ready to delay, three days is precious, he wants to become stronger as soon as possible, there is still a Hulk in his head that he has not dealt with.

"Gone."

"Okay, goodbye, boss." After paying the money, the guy was noticeably more enthusiastic.

Walking out of the midsummer tea shop, Xu Yue first went to the Exchange Square to find a booth where no one was there, and hung up the only primary mechanical transformation scroll that needed to be processed, this thing can be said to be priceless, but the things he needed were equally precious.

After marking in front of the booth that he only exchanged for forging knowledge scrolls of the same level and above, ignoring the crowd that had already gathered up, Xu Yue walked straight out of the square, and now he wanted to go to the central area first.

Coming to the outside of the Exchange Square, finding a vacant lot, Xu Yue took out the park pass, and according to the way that Eve Yue said, pressed the yellow sign in the center of the card, and a mechanical female voice came from the card.

"Please let us know where you want to go."

"Attribute Enhancement Hall."

"We're sorry, vehicles are impassable in the Central District, the nearest location has been located, please wait."

'The positioning is complete, the search is being carried out for nearby idle vehicles, the search is complete, please wait, the vehicle still has three minutes to arrive at the designated location. ’

The service is good, it seems to be a special car.

After listening to the prompt sound, Xu Yue, who originally thought it would be in the form of a bus, was a little surprised, and the quality of this gift was good.

The time of three minutes was fleeting, and Xu Yue looked at the big cat running quickly from afar, his eyes were magical.

The hairy body, the brown stripes, and the galloping eight legs and the big tail that constantly swayed behind him, the more he looked at it, the more familiar it became, this thing is my vehicle?

"The cat bus has arrived, please get on the bus, the estimated travel time is 10 minutes."

It was a childhood dream that came true, Xu Yue got into the car behind the cat bus with great interest, the soft seats inside were the same as in the anime, the fluffy touch and the temperature from the fingertips made Xu Yue couldn't help but stroke it several times.

After Xu Yue sat down, the cat bus roared excitedly, the sign on the door of his head jumped to the words of the north gate of the central district, and the eight meat legs quickly galloped forward under the force one after another.

"You have arrived at your destination, please get off the bus, this service consumes 1 point of passage, the current balance in the card: 9."

Put away the number in the upper right corner has become a nine-point pass card, Xu Yue looked at the cat bus that had run away, this thing has a very good experience, although the speed is fast, but it does not feel bumpy at all, and the 10-minute journey is also very fast under the happy cat.

Turning around, Xu Yue took out the tablet, followed the navigation above, and began to approach the location of the attribute enhancement hall.
