Chapter 132: A New Mission Begins
After several days of diligent training, Li Muyang was ready to begin his mission once again.
He also promised Bai Yuxiu and Feng Ling'er that he would take them with him to the next world!
Nan Ying and her daughter Nan Sheng are studying the Poison Scripture and are currently still in the small world because this thing is a bit dangerous, and it's more reassuring to have the Shennong Beast watching over them.
Next is Lu You, who has just finished visiting his friends.
If you don't come soon, the author will almost forget about you.
As for his next goal, after considering various factors, Li Muyang chose a world mission that involved a new recruit from the Administration Bureau.
The world I'm about to travel to is... oops, Demon Slayer.
The reward for mentoring new players is a lot of Origin Points, and only Origin Points. There are three new players in this task, so each of them gets 10,000 Origin Points! That's a total of 30,000 Origin Points for all three!
Such missions are not available anytime and anywhere, and they are also quite complex. In addition to the high requirements for new members joining the Bureau, during the mission, not only must the newcomers be kept alive, but they must also be taught cultivation techniques. To put it bluntly, it is to enable them to have the ability to protect themselves within the Bureau.
Li Muyang (￣^￣): "Why didn't I receive this kind of treatment before?"
Goose (；?＿?): "You're not some ordinary person starting from scratch! How can you be so shameless as to hogging public resources? The Administration doesn't just take on newbies, especially since most newbies are ordinary people. We're usually short-handed. Besides, aren't the reinforcements we've assigned you good enough?"
Okay, after looking at the treatment these new recruits received, Li Muyang didn't say anything more. The reason he was so generous with his rewards was that he was essentially giving him 80% of the rewards for the three new recruits' mission! They could only get 10%!
What? There's still 10% left?
Of course, the tax bureau pays the taxes!
To whom should it be paid?
Time and Space Administration Bureau!
What newcomers can gain in this process is to learn skills from the summoned seniors and to enhance their abilities as much as possible in the mission world.
Li Muyang took them all from the very beginning!
It's true that bringing your own funding to join the team is better than being a contract worker.
That cauldron I suffered in my past life wasn't for nothing!
Li Muyang doesn't lack any special methods now, but he lacks the source points, so strengthening his cultivation is the key.
The Administration has special places to enhance enlightenment and cultivation, which Li Muyang can use after becoming a full-time employee, but it consumes a lot of Origin Stones.
The task of mentoring newcomers allows for advance payment of a deposit, but if the mentor fails to protect the newcomer properly, the mentor's resources will be deducted.
Besides the Origin Point, another reason for accepting this mission was to take Bai Yuxiu and Feng Ling'er to see non-human enemies. Feng Lingyu Xiu's martial arts system is actually quite destructive, but it is somewhat specialized in dealing with humans, such as using internal energy to damage meridians.
But dealing with those immortal monsters is not so easy! Many of a human's vital points are not vulnerable to monsters!
Just like those liquid creatures with the power of evil gods and immortality that I encountered in my own world not long ago, their destructive power is really very limited by martial arts and internal energy alone!
Let's take Bai Yuxiu and Feng Ling'er to broaden their horizons!
Pillar annihilation... Ugh! The difficulty level of Demon Slayer's world is just right! I can handle it!
Honestly, why do I always slip up when I say the wrong thing?
Secondly, it's also because there are hidden missions in this world that Li Muyang needs to explore.
The specifics are unclear, and the management bureau didn't provide any clues, just said something mysterious.
Now that the mission has been decided, let's set off.
In the blink of an eye, Li Muyang, Lu You, Bai Yuxiu, and Feng Ling'er appeared in a building in the style of the late Meiji period in Japan.
Well, the management bureau even provided him with a house, which was quite thoughtful.
Meanwhile, on the bed next to them lay three teenagers, two boys and one girl, who looked to be just over eighteen years old.
Wow... You really know how to time things! So this doesn't count as employing child labor, right?
Upon arriving, Li Muyang seemed used to it, but Bai Yuxiu and Feng Ling'er squatted down with pale faces. Lu You, on the other hand, wanted to maintain his expert demeanor and stubbornly refused to squat down, but judging from his pale face, he was also in great pain.
"What... Oh! I almost forgot! Sorry, adjust your breathing, you'll get used to it. My first time was even more uncomfortable than yours!" Li Muyang also realized that he was experiencing motion sickness! Traveling through worlds is really unpleasant!
It's like turning you into clay, tossing you into a washing machine where you're subjected to a free-flowing, weightless spin without any restrictions on direction or force, while being kneaded, squeezed, and stretched into your desired shape!
Look at those three next to me, they're completely unconscious!
Li Muyang helped Bai Yuxiu and Feng Ling'er adjust their physical condition. He had previously recovered quickly with the help of Shennong Beast and Hashirama Senju. If the two women didn't have someone to help them adjust, this discomfort would probably last for a long time.
As for Lu You... well, he refused!
Fortunately, as a doctor, this minor problem was nothing to Li Muyang. Lu You was too proud to admit his mistake, but he quickly adapted after circulating his internal energy, or at least that's what he said.
The two girls quickly returned to normal. Before setting off, Li Muyang had shown them some information about the things in this world, so they had some understanding of them.
Therefore, while it was still light, Bai Yuxiu and Feng Ling'er decided to go out for a stroll. They had never been to Japan before and were very curious about the place.
Lu You also wanted to go out and take a look, but he wasn't just going for a casual stroll; he was going to gather some intelligence.
As for Li Muyang, he naturally stayed in the house to take care of the three newcomers. Judging from their condition, they definitely wouldn't wake up anytime soon.
Li Muyang tidied up the room provided by the Administration Bureau. Although he carried a small world with him, it was necessary to keep a backup plan for these three newcomers who were not yet familiar with him.
I also cooked a meal... After all this fuss, the midday sun had already started to turn yellow.
The three ordinary newcomers have finally begun to wake up.
Li Muyang strongly suspected that they had smelled the aroma of the food.
"Awake? Serve the dishes." Li Muyang calmly said to the first boy who woke up, pointing to the dishes next to him.
The boy was stunned for a moment, clearly not quite back to his senses. He rubbed his stomach, swallowed hard, and then quickly got up and obediently served the dishes.
His movements also woke up the other two people beside him. The man and woman groggily got up, looked at each other, and then were startled. They instinctively covered their clothes and checked if anything had changed.
"Stop looking! The three of you fell asleep on the bed as soon as you came over, and I couldn't wake you up. I've been waiting all afternoon," Li Muyang complained with a yawn. "If you have nothing to do, just come and bring the dishes!"
The two then remembered their situation and hurriedly came over to help.
Before long, the table in the courtyard was filled with all sorts of dishes, a total of ten!
The three swallowed hard, but none of them made a move. Instead, they stared intently at Li Muyang.
"Wait a moment, three more people... are coming back." Li Muyang explained leisurely, and before he finished speaking, he saw Bai Yuxiu, Feng Ling'er and Lu You return.
Once everyone was present, Li Muyang didn't waste any words: "Now that everyone's here, let's eat and chat." With that, he started eating.
Seeing that Li Muyang had started eating, Bai Yuxiu, Feng Ling'er, and Lu You didn't hesitate to start eating as well. Only after all four of them had started eating did the three of them join in.
Upon closer inspection, it became clear that the three of them had actually observed the dishes that the others had picked up before they began to eat this particular dish.
Putting everything else aside, this level of vigilance is quite impressive!
However, once they reached the dinner table, they quickly became acquainted, as the three newcomers were only around eighteen years old.
"Brother Li, we're new here, so please take care of the three of us on this mission!" Li Yichen, the first boy to wake up, offered Li Muyang a glass of juice with a mixture of awe and obsequiousness.
Well, since Li Muyang doesn't drink alcohol, there's no way we could prepare any drinks; the juice was made first.
According to his self-introduction, Li Yichen had just finished the college entrance examination and was looking for a summer job when he was tricked into joining the Administration Bureau.
He thought it was a joke, but who knew it was real. The contract had already been signed, and Li Yichen couldn't back out even if he wanted to. Seeing that the treatment at the Administration Bureau was not bad, the young man threw himself into his first mission.
He had no ambitions; he just wanted to live and go home. His parents and younger sister were waiting for him, and he didn't want to die inexplicably in the myriad worlds.
She has a cheerful personality, a sensitive mind, and a shrewd look in her eyes. Most importantly, she knows how to behave appropriately!
In just a few words, he had already probed into Bai Yuxiu's, Feng Ling'er's, and Lu You's identities from Feng Ling'er's words. He also knew about Feng Lingyuxiu's storyline. Under these circumstances, he wisely avoided causing any trouble and immediately changed the subject!
The other two, the girl named Feng Feifei and the boy named Cao Zhi, clearly knew about Feng Lingyuxiu's storyline just by looking at their expressions. They were just being sensible and didn't ask. Their cooperation was quite tacit. The Management Bureau really doesn't pick people randomly; they all have high emotional intelligence!
It was Bai Yuxiu and Feng Ling'er who started talking about their own world. Realizing that the girl already knew, the three of them began to speak freely... while trying to avoid saying anything that might offend anyone.
After all, Lu You was a minor villainous boss in the original storyline! Just because someone was sitting there without saying anything doesn't mean they weren't there!
The three newcomers were all ordinary people, but they were no match for Lu You, a martial arts master. They were all very clear about their own limitations!
Don't be fooled by Feng Ling'er's few words of deception from Li Yichen. In reality, Li Muyang, Bai Yuxiu, Feng Ling'er, and Lu You are all secretly communicating in the chat group. This was all deliberately leaked by Feng Ling'er at Li Muyang's behest.
It was the first time everyone had met, and these three newcomers were quite wary. They were all shrewd people. It wouldn't be good for Li Muyang and the others to be too attentive, nor would it be good to be too cold. Using their strength to intimidate them would be even worse. They weren't those kinds of people!
Let's test each other first and work together on the inner monologues of these three newcomers! Trust is built gradually.
