Apocalypse: Counterattack of a Cannon Fodder

Chapter 163: Eligibility to take the assessment

Views:

The assessment of the Trial Council is not based on strength alone like the Awakening Army and the Hunter Alliance. The reference candidates for the Trial Council have strict requirements. They must not only have strength, but also have a certain degree of personal influence and contribution to the gathering place. , the most important thing is to have a recommender. This recommender must be a very important person in the gathering place. Only such a person can speak in front of the people in the high-level gathering place, and only then can he be qualified to be the recommender.

Mr. Tan looked thoughtful, and the office fell into silence again, with only the sound of drinking tea silently.

Mr. Tan said: "I do have a recommendation quota in my hand, but..."

Tang Shi looked at Mr. Tan in surprise.

Yanxu deliberately brought the topic to this point, just to test his feelings.

Tang Shi said that the threshold for the trial meeting was too high, which was true. He wanted to hear some news from Mr. Tan that would be beneficial to his assessment. After all, Mr. Tan was from the Awakened Guild, and the clerks outside were very respectful to him. Tang Shi guessed that with Mr. Tan's identity, he might know something.

But he didn't expect that Mr. Tan would have a spot in his hand.

Since he was willing to reveal that there was a recommendation quota, it meant that he didn't care about giving this quota to Tang Shi. He added "but", which seemed to be a requirement.

Tang Shi smiled and said, "It's okay for Mr. Tan to speak directly if he has something to say."

Mr. Tan waved his hands and said, "To be honest, I admire you very much. I'm only a few years older than you, so stop calling me 'Mr. Tan'. If you don't mind, you can call me 'Brother Tan'." How about we talk about being friends?"

When Tang Shi saw Mr. Tan taking the initiative to show his kindness, he naturally would not refute his face and said with a smile: "Of course that's good, then we'll all call you Brother Tan."

With Tang Shi's current strength and the friends around him, he doesn't need to curry favor with Mr. Tan at all, but if he wants to participate in the trial assessment, he really needs to use Mr. Tan. If he can have more time, let him Xianglong City has established a firm footing and has made its own achievements, so it will naturally not be in its current predicament.

It's just that there is no time now, and the assessment will come when it is mentioned.

Mr. Tan's expression relaxed, and his smile was much more sincere than before. He really admired these young people for their strength, courage, and daring to work hard. They were better than those guys who were arrogant and arrogant, and were complacent and arrogant after achieving little results. So much better.

Mr Tan likes them.

Mr. Tan was not polite. He dropped his smile and deliberately said with a straight face: "Since you call me Brother Tan, I will say it directly. When you killed the horned ape man last time, you really only saw one Only?"

Tang Shi rubbed his nose in embarrassment, wanting to leave the question unanswered, but when he looked at Qin Lie, the idiot was admiring his office and was not focused on the content of the conversation at all. Looking at Yan Xu next to him, he saw that he had an upright face and calm eyes. He was not embarrassed at all by having his lies exposed. Finally, he sighed and had to do it himself.

Seeing Tang Shi looking around, Mr. Tan added, "Don't tell me, the people at the institute are very interested in the runes on the horns. Later we sent people to check again and found two stone huts. There were obviously living creatures living inside, and the hair of a horned ape-man was found inside.”

Mr. Tan said angrily: "You are not kind. If you have it, you will have it. If you don't have it, you won't have it. Why don't you tell me that you haven't tried it yet? The facts are before our eyes. There are two stone houses there, which means there are at least two horned apes. The other one is Woolen cloth?"

Tang Shi had already planned to confess, but he didn't expect Mr. Tan to accuse him so directly. He hurriedly apologized: "The other one is still here with me and has not been ruined. I am just short of money and want to find an opportunity to take the horns of the other one." The ape-man sells for a good price.”

Mr. Tan snorted: "It seems that even if you want to sell it, you have no intention of selling it to me."

Tang Shi said hurriedly: "Whatever Brother Tan said, if you want it, I can just give it to you."

Tang Shi said, and put the two horns of the horned ape-man that had been made into material cards on the coffee table, "However, I chopped off the two horns. Brother Tang should not be interested in the body of the horned ape-man."

Mr. Tan waved his hands, indicating that he didn't care about his body. He picked up two material cards and activated them immediately. Both horns were complete and were cut from the roots. The green runes on them were still there, two on each one, which was better than before. The horned ape man has two more runes, which should be complete.

After Mr. Tan carefully inspected it, he showed a satisfied expression, "Don't worry, I won't take it for nothing. The Qitian Chamber of Commerce will hold a large-scale auction in a few days. I will take the pair over to appraise them. I’ll give you the highest price, but you can’t sell them in public, these runes are very important and there can’t be any mistakes.”

Qitian Chamber of Commerce is the top chamber of commerce in Xianglong City, with high reputation and a wide range of items.

The Qitian Chamber of Commerce really knows how to choose the time, and even chooses to hold this auction before the assessment. Those who want to participate in the assessment will definitely spare no effort to take pictures of things that they like and that are helpful to their assessment. Once they pass the assessment , From then on, he rose to great heights and became a master. Who would be stingy with that little money at this time

"It's all up to Brother Tan, just let Brother Tan decide." Tang Shi was also very good at being a good person, and he gave Mr. Tan enough face at this moment.

Mr. Tan carefully looked at the runes on the horns for a while, then fixed them and put them away himself.

"The recommendation quota in my hand can be given to you, but this alone is not enough. It also requires personal influence and contribution to the gathering place."

"You have just arrived in Xianglong City not long ago. I know this. The time is too short. If you can have more time, these two items should not be a problem for you. But what you are fighting for now is time. You don't have enough personal influence and your popularity is not enough. Gao, my recommendation alone won't do anything."

"As for the contribution to the gathering place..." Mr. Tan paused and then said: "If there is enough time and there is a breakthrough in the research of runes before the assessment, then I will share some of this contribution with you. "

The most stringent of the four major institutions is the Trial Chamber, and now it is the first batch of personnel to be selected after it is established. The requirements for members are naturally very strict. Having said that, if Tang Shi can really enter the Trial Chamber, then Mr. Tan's face will also be bright. , that's the person he recommended. He has a friend in the trial meeting, and he can walk sideways wherever he goes from now on.

The selection process of the Awakening Army is much more relaxed than that of the Tribunal. The Awakening Army is mainly to select the first batch of formal management. Even the current leader Lu An has to accept the assessment. If he can pass, he will be officially appointed as the general manager. If the leader fails to pass, he will have no choice but to be demoted.

As for the Hunter Alliance, the main purpose is to evaluate the professional titles of the awakened hunters in it and legalize the evaluation of the professional titles. In the future, when the awakened hunter professional title is released, it will definitely have enough weight.

Tang Shi nodded and thanked him. He was very sure that he was going to enter the trial, but he was a little confused about how to enter. He didn't care about the assessment. What he really cared about was how to qualify to participate in the assessment. This was the most embarrassing thing for him.

Tang Shi had also considered the issue of personal influence and contribution before.

Originally, he wanted the team of Supreme Awakeners to take over the task of the Gluttonous Trolls, and then take action after they failed. In this way, it would be easy to gain fame by stepping on the face of the team of Supreme Awakeners. However, miscalculation was that the Supreme Awakener team did not accept this task, so Tang Shi could only skip this step and silently accepted the task.

After this mission is completed, the reputation will be there, but it will not be as big as stepping on the Supreme Awakener team.

This S-level mission was completed by an unknown person like him. At most, others would think that the mission was not as difficult as imagined. The Supreme Awakener team did not take it because they did not like it and it was not worth their while, so Tang Shi wanted to The effect will not be very obvious.

Facts have proved that Tang Shi's guess was correct. People in the mission hall did think so. They all felt that the Gluttonous Troll was not that scary. Otherwise, how could an unknown person complete this mission

But Tang Shi had to accept this task. Zhan Rong's hatred for this gluttonous troll meant that he had to kill it no matter what, so even if the effect was not obvious, Tang Shi still had to accept it.

For the sake of battle appearance and contribution points to reach B level as soon as possible, Tang Shi could only become an unknown old scalper.

Mr. Tan added: "However, with this S-level mission, your reputation will definitely be heard."

Tang Shi nodded, noncommittal.

"So, what about the body of the Gluttonous Troll? What you gave me was just a head." Mr. Tan asked.

Tang Shi was not polite this time, and said bluntly: "This mission is completed, the contribution points and mission bonus can be given to me, but I am not going to sell the body of the Gluttonous Troll to the Awakened Guild."

Mr. Tan didn't expect Tang Shi to be so direct. He stared for a while and could only sigh.

Tang Shi had the right not to sell quest materials to the Awakened Guild. Although the body of the Gluttonous Troll was a good thing, compared with the runes on the horns of the Ox-horned Ape-man, the runes were more valuable for research. He had already obtained the Ox-horned Ape-man. He could no longer be greedy and buy the Gluttonous Troll. Besides, Tang Shi really had no intention of selling the Gluttonous Troll to the Guild of the Awakened.

Mr. Tan did not force the body of the Gluttonous Troll, and asked the clerk to give the contribution points and task bonus to Tang Shi, and Tang Shi and others said goodbye and left.

After the task handover was completed, the S-level task of killing the Gluttonous Troll on the task list was marked with the word "Complete" on the back.

When Lu Yuan and the others arrived, all they saw was the word "complete" in big letters.

Only then did the people from the Hunter Alliance confirm that the Gluttonous Troll mission had indeed been preempted.

Duan Chen grabbed an awakened person and asked: "Who completed the task of the gluttonous troll?"

The awakened person looked at Duan Chen and others for a few times, and said inexplicably: "How do I know his name? I only know that the boy just arrived in Xianglong City not long ago, and his contribution point level has not reached F level."

The faces of Duan Chen and others suddenly darkened. With so many people working on this task, they were worried that they would not be able to complete it. Unexpectedly, they were overtaken by a boy who had just arrived in Xianglong City. It seemed that he was alone

Duan Chen said in horror: "Don't tell me that he completed this task alone?"

The awakened person hesitated and said: "I don't know about this, but he has three friends with him, so he shouldn't be alone."

Lu Yuan and others breathed a sigh of relief. If one person really killed the gluttonous troll monster, then this person's strength would definitely scare people to death. Fortunately, fortunately, he scared them to death.

They were a step too late to catch up, and they had already driven away in Tang Dynasty.

After dinner, Yanxu did not go back to his room, but went to Tang Shi's place.

Tang Shi had just finished taking a shower, wearing loose pajamas and sitting on the sofa studying runes.

He was thinking about whether to leak out a little bit of the information he knew about the runes, so as to increase his contribution.

The door was unlocked, so Yanxu pretended to knock twice, opened the door and came in.

Seeing Tang Shi bending one leg and nestling on the sofa, with his loose pajamas exposing his white chest and thighs, his eyes immediately froze, staring closely at Tang Shi's white and tender skin, and he swallowed unconsciously.

Tang Shi held a stack of paper and a pen in his hand, and was practicing drawing runes on it. He raised his eyes and glanced at Yanxu, then immediately lowered the pen and continued to drag the penholder.

"Come in, what are you doing standing there?" Tang Shi said casually.

Yanxu then closed the door and quietly locked it from the inside. He walked to the sofa and sat down. He leaned towards Tang Shi and looked at the runes drawn on his paper.

After finishing one painting, without stopping, he painted another one.

Yanxu's eyes looked at Tang Shi's fair and beautiful ankles for a while, then traced along his calves and thighs until they were covered by his casual pants and he couldn't see the scenery he wanted to see.
