Struggling with difficulty in the paperwork, Xiao Zhi felt that this was really a dangerous job. Is it true that it requires combat power
After getting away, he had the opportunity to take a closer look at the government affairs hall.
The area of the government affairs hall is actually quite large, and it will not be a problem to accommodate more than a dozen people working at the same time. But now all the space inside is completely occupied by various documents, and the innermost papers are dry and brittle, and I don't know what age the documents are.
The furniture is all in an old color, and judging from the exposed corners, it is almost cracked due to lack of maintenance, and it feels crumbling. There are still spider webs left in the corner that I don’t know how many years ago. Perhaps the spiders felt that they couldn’t stay any longer, so they chose to move.
All in all, it's no different from a ruin.
Xiao Zhi felt a bit of a headache: "... This has not been taken care of for hundreds of years?"
Lance took down the document stuck in the gap in his armor: "About... three hundred years... um... maybe four hundred years? Or five hundred years?"
Xiao Zhi: "..."
How many years of laziness did Arsen steal
Lance threw a round badge over: "This is the Hessian pass. You can use this to enter and leave the Palace of Skeleton and the Government Affairs Hall in the future. If you have important work, the lord will also use this to summon you."
"I will bring you your uniform in a few days, so you can wear your own in these two days."
Xiao Zhi stretched out his hand to catch it. It was all black, with a ghostly skull engraved on it, and below it were the words "Hessen Passing Order" written in immortal characters, with a serial number, which must have been recorded in the book.
Lance: "You are an external employee, and you don't need to stay in the Skeleton Palace all the time. You can leave after the current work is completed, and you can deal with it when there are more paperwork."
Xiao Zhi asked: "Don't the documents need to be processed immediately?"
Lance: "No, if it's urgent, they can solve it themselves with a fight."
Xiao Zhi: "..."
Well, this approach is very Hessian.
Xiao Zhi turned his head to look at the mountain of documents that almost drowned people.
In this situation, he will definitely not be able to go out for a short time, and he cannot go offline at will in Hesse. It would be bad if he is exposed as an Athanasiian.
Fortunately, his teacher studies games, so he doesn't have to worry about asking for leave, and even gets encouragement.
However, Xiao Zhi never thought that he would not only take classes in the game, but also experience being a social animal in the game. ZERO is really too real a game.
With Lance's help, the two barely sorted out the paperwork. After putting some documents that were too long ago and the matters reported inside were either resolved or dragged to death, they were finally able to enter the government affairs hall.
However, the government affairs hall is still full of piles, going straight to the roof, with no place to stay at all.
Fortunately, Xiao Zhi is now an undead, he can float in mid-air, and sit casually on the pile of crumbling documents.
Lance is miserable. Although he is also an undead, the undead knight's body is not light, and he is wearing a heavy armor. In addition, he is tall, so he can only stand at the door aggrieved, just like a gatekeeper.
Xiao Zhi picked up the top few documents and looked at them.
The first: A report on the farmed undead worms not eating stones.
The second one: A group of little skeletons fought and lost three legs and four arms.
The third one: Two undead knights fought and destroyed the house of the dead banshee, but they were beaten to pieces by the banshee. All three parties are asking for compensation.
Xiao Zhi: "..."
Why are Hessen's documents at this level? Isn't there any content about Hessen's future planning and development
Xiao Zhi took the most serious-looking first report and asked Lance: "Don't you need to send this kind to the lord?"
Lance shook his head: "The lord has never been interested in these things."
Xiao Zhi: "Then what is he interested in?"
Lance thought for a moment: "Fight."
Xiao Zhi: "..."
What happened in the past six hundred years? Why did his innocent little friend turn into a fierce chop cub
Xiao Zhi would never admit that it was his own influence, but he never fought with anyone in front of Asen.
After explaining to Xiao Zhi, Lance left, his heavy steps became a little lighter, he was as happy as a child weighing more than five hundred catties.
It's great that I don't have to worry about stuffing paperwork in the government affairs hall any more.
·
Xiao Zhi sat alone on the pile of documents, facing the Hessen affairs.
All of these are up to him to decide. He suddenly felt that he had become an agent of the lord, and even... a feeling of power
After reading a few documents, Xiao Zhi felt more and more that it was a miracle that Hessen could last until now.
Hesse has almost no management at all, relying entirely on the fact that the undead can never starve to death, and then relying on combat effectiveness and sturdy style to deter foreign enemies, and relying on the powerful strength of the lord to gather people's hearts.
If this was a human country, there might have been a rebellion hundreds of years ago, but Hesse, which is composed of undead, has always been very united, and even won a big victory in the battle with Blaise.
Xiao Zhi quickly processed the documents.
In particular, there are a lot of content about XX and XX, occupying a large part of all documents. According to Hessen's consistent principle, it is not a big deal if it can be resolved by fighting, so Xiao Zhi just dealt with it casually.
When dealing with paperwork, his experience is also growing rapidly.
In fact, each paperwork does not bring much experience, but it can't hold up to a large amount. The paperwork accumulated for hundreds of years is now like a big gift bag of Xiao Zhi's exclusive experience.
There is no need to venture into the copy, no dangerous hidden tasks, just sit in place and move your hands to gain a lot of experience, it feels like Asen opened the back door for him.
What is beauty, this is beauty.
This made Xiao Zhi's enthusiasm for work extremely high, and he suddenly enjoyed the joy of work, and even handled the paperwork with ease.
Suddenly, he saw a proposal for the lord to increase the bounty of 2 billion gold shells because the reward order had been unable to catch anyone. Xiao Zhi dismissed it expressionlessly, mastering the skill of using power for personal gain.
As soon as he threw this document aside, Xiao Zhi suddenly felt a chill run down his back, as if being stared at by a ferocious beast.
He turned his head slowly, looking where his line of sight came from.
The door of the government affairs hall opened at some point, and a man in black armor stood quietly at the door. He remained silent, with his back straight, like a sharp knife that could be unsheathed at any time.
It's Arsen.
He stood in the dark corridor, the shadow covered half of his body, making his silver hair dim, and his whole body almost merged with the darkness behind him, just like he was originally a part of the darkness.
Xiao Zhi felt his heartbeat was going to soar again.
What did Asen come to the gate of the government affairs hall? He has left Hesse affairs aside for hundreds of years and has no reason to suddenly change his temper and want to be diligent in government and love the people. This trip is definitely not because he cares about the development of Hesse.
So what is Arsen coming to see? look... him
Let's see if he looks good enough to be dealt with with a knife...
Xiao Zhi felt his neck was a little cold, but he still tried his best to keep himself calm.
He floated down from the pile of documents and saluted Asen according to the etiquette of the undead: "Lord."
These words seemed to break some delicate balance. The lord in pitch black didn't respond. He stood still for a few seconds, then turned and left in silence.
This attitude is really confusing.
Six hundred years have passed, after years of training, now this good friend makes him feel both familiar and strange, Xiao Zhi can no longer guess what A Sen is thinking.
Asen seems to have matured a lot, and he has also become a lot stronger. He exudes a sharp aura. There are countless subordinates around him for him to send, and there are many undead who are willing to go crazy for him.
He became aloof and difficult to fathom. But occasionally Xiao Zhi could catch a glimpse of the gentle and shy young man under the big white tree in his subtle movements.
After all, they had missed six hundred years, and Xiao Zhi didn't know about A Sen's experience during this time.
He also asked his teacher who specializes in games before, but Li Daye said that players know very little about all the information about Hesse, and they don't even know the specific year and month when the Lord of Hesse appeared, let alone his experience.
After thinking about it, Xiao Zhi couldn't help but wonder, could this be called rebellion in adolescence
·
Some time passed.
Xiao Zhi's work became smoother and smoother, and he gradually became familiar with Hessen affairs.
During the period, Lance also brought him the clerk's uniform, which was Hesse's usual black, but because it was a civil servant, it was not made into armor, it was just a robe, and it was the undead version.
Just dealing with documents like this every day, his level has easily reached 190, which is more than half of the players.
Although upgrading is very fun, an overly comfortable life will always breed laziness, and it will be tiring to suck up experience gift packs every day, so now Xiao Zhi is sitting on the pile of paperwork that has been reduced a lot and sneaking fish.
Shimen Exclusive Communication Group - Teenagers Chosen by Fate:
Hey hey hey: Junior brother is really amazing, he actually became a clerk, the light of the master.
Hillholms Van Surina Jalarentia: As expected of the boy I chose, human beings finally set foot in the territory of Hesse and survived tenaciously!
Hey: However, if I don’t say anything about it, I really don’t know that Hessen’s high-level executives actually have this kind of style. It feels a bit...
Hey hey hey: amazing.
Hey hey hey: I thought they were gloomy all day long, meeting around a pile of green undead fire, discussing how to destroy human beings.
hello: +1
Seventeen: Now I have to deal with a lot of paperwork every day, and I am almost immune to Hesse's style.
Hill Holmes Van Surina Gallarentia: By the way, you must not tell other players about Hesse, the research is only carried out within our profession.
Hey hey hey: received.
Hello: OK.
Xiao Zhi was about to reply, but he heard heavy footsteps outside the door. After getting acquainted with him for this period of time, he clearly knew that this was Lance.
He hurriedly put away the address book in his hand, pretending nothing happened.
"Boom—" a loud sound sounded outside his door, it sounded like a car accident.
Xiao Zhi hurriedly floated down to check, but when he opened the door, he saw Lance flung himself upright at the entrance of the corridor, cracking the hard ground of the Muscle Palace.
Taking a closer look, Lance was carrying a huge metal sword on his back, probably because the angle of his back was not very good, the giant sword got stuck the moment he entered the corridor, and he ran in a hurry, just like that A dog gnawed mud.
Xiao Zhi floated in front of Lance, he was very self-aware and didn't help his huge body: "Lance, are you okay?"
Lance's head turned 180 degrees on the ground, all the way to his back, looking a little horrified: "It's, it's okay..."
Lance struggled to get up from the ground and moved his body.
Only then did Xiao Zhi ask: "Why are you running in such a hurry?"
Lance turned his head back to the front: "I... was about to tell you that a group of Athanasis broke into Hesse."
Xiao Zhi: "How do you usually handle this matter?"
Lance pointed to his big sword: "The lord usually says kill."
Xiao Zhi stroked his chin: "Kill them, will they come again?"
As a player, he knows the urine of players very well. Threats of death are definitely not taken seriously by them at all. Even if they are fine, they will die by themselves, so why would they stay away from Hesse because they are afraid of being killed.
Anyway, after the player dies, it is just a period of weakness, and after the player survives, he can continue to run vigorously on the road to death.
Lance looked a little distressed: "Yes, they always show up again in a few days."
Xiao Zhi thought for a while: "Well, I'll go out with you to have a look, maybe there's a better way."
Lance nodded: "Okay."
After walking a few steps, Xiao Zhi suddenly remembered that his face had also traveled around the mainland, and he had seen quite a few players in Chiba City and Hilaris, so it would be terrible if he was accidentally recognized by players No, now he can't change his face in front of Lance.
He asked Lance, "Do we have masks or something?"
Lance cast a puzzled look.
Xiao Zhi explained: "You also know that I'm just a weak civil servant, it would be bad if the Athanasi people remember my appearance."
His tone was sincere, mixed with a little hesitation, as if he was really just an ordinary office worker, the kind who couldn't restrain himself.
The honest and honest Lance had no doubts, he thought for a while and took out a white scarf-like thing from his pocket: "My spoils, here you are."
"Thank you." Xiao Zhi took it and took a look. This thing is light in texture and looks translucent, but it is actually like a single-sided glass effect. You can easily see the outside from one side, but you can see it from the other direction. It's just a blur. The size is also enough, more than enough to cover the whole head.
Xiao Zhi tried to cover his head with a white gauze, the white gauze was very light and did not affect his movements at all.
However, wearing a black robe with a white gauze covering his head, coupled with his translucent body and blurred face, he looked even more spooky, even scarier than the tall Lance next to him.
Xiao Zhi was satisfied with this.
Lance gave him another chain: "You take this too."
Xiao Zhi saw that this thing was called a chain of restraint, and it was a standard tool for undead knights, used to capture various targets. However, because undead knights prefer to chop and hack, the chain of restraint is often only used as a sideline.
After thanking Lance again, the two led the undead knights towards the place where the Athanasi appeared.
·
Pioneer is a player who often hangs out in Hesse. He has his own fixed team, and several people usually act together. Although Hessen is very dangerous and will die back if they are not careful, they gain a lot every time, so it is worth dying.
The pioneer glanced at the time and said to his teammates: "Speed up a little bit. According to the usual practice, the undead knights from Hesse will definitely be here soon."
The teammates giggled and laughed:
"Quick, quick, install a few more fluorites, this trip is lucky, maybe you can sell tens of thousands of gold shells."
"That group of naive knights always follow the same routine, I'm tired of it."
"Hahaha, let's see who is the last one this time. If you win, please have a meal."
The Blazers glanced at their teammates and said nothing. Because he had figured out Hessen's routine long ago, as long as he caught some before the undead knights arrived, and then died, it would be fine. Although it was a bit painful, he just got used to it.
After countless explorations, they have already mastered the location of many resource points on the edge of Hesse, and each harvest is getting richer and richer.
Auntie, I don't want to work hard anymore. He is the potion expert in the team. He stands a little far away from his teammates. Seeing that the nearby fluorescent stones have all been collected, he is a little bit unwilling. If he takes one more piece, he can get a little more money.
Suddenly, with sharp eyes, he saw a shimmering fluorite a little far away, not far from his teammates anyway, so he walked over in a relaxed manner.
Auntie, I don't want to work hard anymore. I was about to lean over to pick up the fluorite, but I caught a glimpse of a black shadow passing by my side out of the corner of my eye.
He turned around vigilantly, but found nothing.
Auntie, I don't want to work hard and frowned. Could it be that he read it wrong? However, there are many strange things in the Hessen, and it is not unusual to see anything, so it is better to pick up things first.
He just turned his head, but he met a blurry face.
That face was extremely close to him, clearly only separated by a layer of white gauze, but he couldn't see the other person's face clearly, nor could he feel the slightest temperature and breathing, and he could still see the forest behind through the other person's transparent body .
Damn, there is a ghost! ! !
Suddenly encountering a fierce ghost, Auntie, I didn't want to work hard and was taken aback. If it wasn't for the game, he might have urinated directly.
He was about to call his teammates, but the ghost's cold and light hand covered his mouth, and then a cold chain wrapped him tightly, not only wrapped his whole body, but also connected him instead of that hand. His mouth was also covered.
"Hush." The ethereal voice rang in my ears, with traces of cold air, which made Auntie get goosebumps.
He wanted to struggle, and wanted to call his teammates to rescue him, but he couldn't move, and he couldn't make any sound.
the other side.
The pioneer looked at the time and felt a little strange: "It stands to reason that the undead knights should have arrived by this time, why haven't they moved yet?"
A teammate said: "It's not good if we didn't come. Maybe we don't have to die this time, and we can walk back alive."
The pioneer thought for a while: "That's right, then let's leave early, is everyone here?"
Someone looked around: "Where is Auntie?"
Auntie, is their abbreviation for Auntie I don't want to work hard anymore, his broken name is so long and has no integrity, who wants to talk about it all day long.
Pioneer didn't see Auntie either. I didn't want to work hard anymore. He opened the address book and sent a message to the other party, telling him to come back soon and prepare to leave, but he didn't get a response for a long time, but the system showed that the other party was obviously online.
Realizing that the situation was not good, the Blazers said: "There must be something wrong with Auntie. Did you go there before you saw him?"
A teammate pointed in the direction: "It seems to be over there."
The Blazers made a decisive decision: "Let's go first, and then ask him what happened."
At this time, the figures of the undead knights gradually appeared in the nearby forest. This time, instead of dashing on horseback like before, they got off their horses and walked over slowly, so that several people didn't notice it for a while.
Seeing the appearance of the undead knights, they didn't want to struggle anymore, and quietly waited to be sent away. Presumably, Auntie, I didn't want to work hard and didn't reply to the message. I was sent back to the resurrection point in advance.
But to their surprise, this time the undead knights did not draw their swords, but drew out their chains and attacked them.
Entangled in chains, several people immediately felt that they could not move, but they did not die immediately.
This expansion... Does something seem wrong
Amid the bewildered expressions of several people, a tall and strong undead knight came over with my aunt who was also locked up firmly, and threw him into the crowd.
Auntie, I didn't want to work hard and tried to wink at them, but he winked for a long time, and his teammates didn't understand what he meant.
What is he trying to say
Urgent to pee
At this time, a black-clothed undead floated from the forest. His head was covered with a white veil, making his appearance difficult to see, but only felt gloomy.
The undead in black reached out and tapped the pioneer, and the tall undead knight immediately lifted the pioneer and brought him in front of him.
The pioneer saw the ghostly undead in front of him and said to himself: "Pay the fine."
pioneer:"???"
He thought he heard it wrong, haven't you Hessians always have a style of killing money? Why did you switch sex this time
But it turns out that he heard correctly.
The undead in front of him continued: "Traiding into Hesse without authorization, each person will be fined 10,000 gold shells, and you will be imprisoned until the fine is paid off."
The Blazers felt incredible: "This... When did this rule appear?"
The undead's tone was calm: "Just now."
Blazers: "…"
Players present: "..."
This guy definitely eavesdropped on their speech! I didn't expect there to be such a brazen ghost in the world! !
As players, they are really not afraid of death, but the fine is really terrible, 10,000 per person will almost make them lose their money this trip. Moreover, restraint and detention means not giving them a chance to commit suicide, isn't it too cruel
Seeing the players' reactions, Xiao Zhi raised the corners of his mouth under the white gauze.
What players are most afraid of, of course, is poverty. If they are not poor, they will not come here. He who has been poor in the past has a deep understanding of this.
He deliberately chose a price that made them feel a little painful, but was far lower than the price of teleportation items. At the same time, he didn't let them commit suicide and return to resurrection, so that they wouldn't be afraid that they would not pay.
As far as the current situation is concerned, these adventurers who come to Hessen to find materials are completely equivalent to digging Hessen's corner. Hessen has no profit at all, so he naturally chooses to expel them.
In fact, the best solution is to let these adventurers drive Hesse's economy. For example, provide them with accommodation and meals, and then collect taxes on the materials they harvest, or directly develop a trading town, so that adventurers can bring a steady stream of benefits to Hesse.
But it's too early to say these things, let's talk about simple and rude fines first.
The Blazers tried to change his mind: "This... my lord, we simply don't have enough Jinbei on us."
"That's it." Xiao Zhi said empathetically, "Hesse is considering infrastructure construction recently, and needs a lot of coolies. I think you are quite suitable."
He pretended to do the math and said nonsense: "The wages of coolies in Hesse are 50 gold shells a day. If it is 10,000 gold shells, you only need to work as coolies for 200 days."
The cold sweat of the pioneers has come down, 50 gold shells a day, a total of 200 days of coolies, what kind of black-hearted workshop are you guys? The wages sold to the black mine by the Xiyue Clan are higher than this.
Xiao Zhi continued his efforts: "Or you can also choose to raise bone-eating worms. It just so happens that the last wave of breeders were eaten up, and we are worried."
He nodded to several people: "Your bodies look pretty good."
Blazers: "…"
Fuck! This guy is too ruthless, vicious and ruthless, he is not in the same way as the straightforward and straightforward knights.
Finally, the players were defeated and left in disgrace after paying the fine. Xiao Zhi didn't stop him either, and led the undead knights to watch them leave in a friendly and friendly manner.
After leaving Hesse's area completely, they couldn't help discussing with each other.
"Who is that man in black, so treacherous, have you never seen him before?"
"Probably an official? You can see that he didn't dare to show his face, probably because of his bad reputation during his lifetime."
"He must have been a corrupt official during his lifetime..."
"Or those hypocritical bishops of Blaise."
"No... don't you think this style of work is very similar to the Xiyue clan?"
"So..."
"It really is… "
It seems that on the Dazemenya continent, when the word treachery is mentioned, the Xiyue clan is the most popular among the people.
