MMORPG: The Elementalist

Chapter 24: Giant pandas and rumors

Views:

Two hours later, the work at hand finally came to an end.

Qin Ruo opened his arms, soothed his stiff body and tired brain, and secretly warned himself that things like today would never happen again next time. He was so excited that he stayed up all night just for a piece of equipment, and ended up being the first person at work. I feel sleepy for the first time, and I really shouldn’t!

At this moment, a slender hand reached out from behind and placed a cup of coffee on the table. The hot coffee and the aroma of the coffee lifted Qin Ruo's spirits.

"What did you do last night? Look at you, you look like a giant panda."

It's a very pleasant voice. You don't need to look at it to know that the person speaking is 'Xiao Xiao', whose full name is 'Zheng Xiaoxiao'. She is about the same age as Qin Ruo, but she came to the company half a year earlier than him. She is also very beautiful.

Normally, Qin Ruo would not dare to be so presumptuous, but today, whether because he was attracted by the rich and attractive aroma of the coffee in front of him or because of his mentality, he naturally picked up the coffee, took a sip, and sighed: "Big Pandas are great, they should be given to people as if they were treasures.”

Maybe he was really tired. Qin Ruo's expression, tone and movements were completely different from usual. He exuded a lazy and natural temperament, which made Zheng Xiaoxiao, who was used to Qin Ruo's humble and polite side, accelerate his heartbeat slightly.

He joked:

"Okay, I have already made coffee for you myself, what else are you dissatisfied with? Do you want... to hand over Miss Shuyi to bring you tea and water?"

Hearing 'Xiao Xiao' suddenly say such words, Qin Ruogang almost spit out the coffee he drank in his mouth. He finally swallowed it and coughed violently.

Just when he was about to speak, Da Ge's sour and life-threatening voice drifted over to him:

"Weak, you're content. I don't envy giant pandas at all, I just envy you. Who else would you want if you didn't want a good girl like 'Xiao Xiao'? It's a good thing that they even make you coffee. You don't It’s so heartless to be so half-hearted…”

Who was half-hearted? Qin Ruo was holding the coffee and wanted to cry.

At this moment, there was less than an hour before lunch, and everyone seemed to have finished the work at hand. After being provoked by Da Ge, everyone in the spacious office started talking to each other, discussing Qin Ruo and Shuyi at the front desk. mm' gossip…

Regardless of whether this was true or not, a group of chatters seized on this boring topic and discussed it seriously:

Some people said their horoscopes were incompatible, while others said they were talented and beautiful. For a moment, Qin Ruo collapsed completely. The perpetrators, "Zheng Xiaoxiao" and "Wang Da", one pursed his lips and had fun, while the other started doing his job...

"You don't know, when I said that weakly, Shuyi's little face turned red immediately..."

"real?"

"Nonsense, I'm just following behind. Why haven't I noticed it before? This weakling has a very strong attack power. He was taken down by others without making a sound. It is estimated that many male compatriots in our company have to stay up all night. "

These half-truths and half-false words from the big-mouthed king made it look like the truth, and immediately brought the atmosphere in the office to a climax. Qin Ruo thought it was too late to say anything now, so he patted his head, put on his headphones, and simply came to Don't ask, just let them talk nonsense.

Thinking of what Killer Heart had said to him in the early morning, his heart felt hot again.

The lowest estimate given by the Gale Wolf King Boots, Heart Killer and Fire Rose is 50,000 gold coins... With this money, 'Xinyu' doesn't have to worry about the medical expenses for this year;

However, Killing Heart does not recommend selling this piece of equipment, but rather using this rare and top-quality golden equipment to exchange it with other players for 'Water Controller' equipment of equal value.

This view coincides with Qin Ruo’s idea...

Improve your strength and fight the boss again, and you can earn more in the future! Maybe within a few years, we can raise enough money to send 'Xinyu' to a foreign country for surgery.

Anyway, I have more than 13,000 gold coins on me now. If I exchange them for RMB, it will be enough for Xinyu’s medical expenses for several months, so the most important thing at the moment is to rush to the fourth level quickly...

But before that, we need to complete that task first.

Qin Ruo opened the 'Glory' forum where he had previously logged in, and called up the post he had made a few days ago - a post seeking help from internal colleagues.

The content is to find a thief who is proficient in "intermediate mechanism skills", ask for help in the next dungeon, and enter the side plot to do a search and rescue mission...

During the mission, a secret darkroom must be activated by a thief who is proficient in mechanism skills to complete the mission.

The mission reward is to randomly obtain a water elemental magic skill, which is personally awarded by the old elemental master who was rescued. The reward is valid until reaching the fourth level...

It is very rare for thieves to have machine connections! Generally, only strong families and teams can afford to cultivate this profession. This profession rarely appears among ordinary players. Qin Ruo doesn't recognize this kind of thief in the game, and Da Ge has no thief he is familiar with, so he has to ask here for help.

But after a few days, no one has commented...

I took a glance at it as a routine today, and it's still the same. No one has commented. It seems that this skill may have been missed.

Sighing, Qin Ruo suddenly noticed that the personal information manager lit up.

A new message!

Um

Qin Ruo was stunned for a moment. The first thing he thought of was Brother Da, but when he looked up, he saw someone standing next to several female colleagues with saliva...

When I clicked on the message, I saw that the source of the message was 'Mao Mao' from the 'Finance Department' on the 24th floor.

Of course, 'Kitten' is the name used by the other party in the game. The real name is 'Li Lanlan'. She is meticulous in daily life and is extremely serious to both superiors and ordinary colleagues. She is known as the 'money-keeping girl'; When I first met her, I didn't even know that she was her and that she had such a cute name.

I remember that after I learned the truth, I still sighed with emotion and studied the saying "A person cannot be judged by his appearance" for a long time...

Kitty was introduced by her sisters, and she wasn't very good at playing at the time, so she posted a post asking for help as a man. Like him, she also wanted to do a task, but she wasn't strong enough and wanted to find someone to help. As a result, Qin Ruo... Chatted and answered.

After the mission was completed, the two of them had little contact.

So when she saw the message from Mao Mao today, Qin Ruo was stunned for a moment instinctively. The image of the man wearing thick-rimmed glasses, sitting behind the glass door, wearing a serious and rigid work uniform, carefully reviewing every step appeared in his mind. A bill scenario.

Well…

Qin Ruo shook the thought of the 'money-keeper' away from his mind, took a deep breath, and opened the message carefully...

"Two o'clock in the afternoon, Shavis Town, my friends and I will help you with your mission."

Qin Ruo opened his mouth and was about to reply that he had to work in the afternoon when someone picked up the headphones he was wearing from behind:

"Xiao Qin, look at you. Go back and rest early. The company has a half-day holiday in the afternoon... Don't stay up late again."

Upon hearing the voice, Qin Ruo stood up from his seat hurriedly:

"manager!"

The person who spoke was clearly his immediate boss, the HR manager 'Alaya'. He was already in his early thirties. He was well-maintained and treated people very well. However, Qin Ruo was still a little uneasy. Although the work was completed, he still felt guilty when the 'boss' found out that he was not doing his job properly during work.

Fortunately, Alaya was not a stubborn boss. She smiled, raised her head and announced the news she had whispered in Qin Ruo's ear. After leaving a group of people behind, she announced that she was leaving get off work early.

Only then did Qin Ruo realize that Da Ge and others, who had been chatting and gossiping just now, had returned to their original positions at some point, acting conscientiously...
