24: Section 24

A cartoon character mask was worn on his face.

However, his hair had already turned gray.

Moreover, among the several rooms, his was the most desolate.

It seemed that not many people had completed their tasks...

"Hello, I have come to submit my task!"

Walking into the room, Lin Yi took out his task token and placed it on the table.

After he spoke, the old man looked up at Lin Yi.

"No need to say more, just leave the task token here!"

The old man's voice was deep and kept very low.

As if he was afraid of being overheard by others, Lin Yi nodded.

The old man then took Lin Yi's task token and performed some operations under the table.

Then, he nodded: "Hmm, 10 points, this is your task reward!"

The old man took out a file, a points card, and the task token that previously had 'Number 28' written on it, and handed them all to Lin Yi.

When Lin Yi received the task token, he noticed that its original dark red color...

...had returned to its previous green.

He frowned slightly, just about to ask something.

The old man lowered his voice and said: "If you want to continue accepting tasks, go queue up over there; if you don't want to accept tasks, leave immediately, do not linger here... You have already been targeted!"

After the old man gave this warning.

Lin Yi subconsciously turned his head and glanced outside.

He saw two people outside the room, sneaking glances here.

The moment they realized Lin Yi had turned around, they hurriedly averted their gazes elsewhere.

However, this alone verified what the old man had said.

This place was truly a den of wolves.

To be targeted just for submitting a task? Lin Yi carefully put away the file folder.

He took the task token and headed straight to where tasks were accepted.

And the moment he stepped out of the room.

The two people who had been constantly peeking looked around as if nothing was wrong.

Lin Yi walked past them.

He saw that their respective talent entries appeared above their heads.

[2nd Realm Martial Artist Certification: Possesses a certain foundation in the martial arts]

[Flowery Fists and Embroidered Legs: Possesses some basic skills, but not many]

[Insidious: Untrustworthy, has no good intentions...]

When Lin Yi saw the talent entries of the person on his left.

His expression changed slightly.

"Can I actually see his martial arts Realm?"

Aside from his surprise, Lin Yi's mind gradually relaxed.

A mere 2nd Realm Martial Artist, not even comparable to most classmates in his class.

Lin Yi had no need to worry about being spied on by such a person.

He turned his head and looked at the other person.

[2nd Realm Martial Artist Certification: Possesses a certain foundation in the martial arts]

[Iron Fist: Fists like iron, Strength +5%]

He was also a 2nd Realm Martial Artist, but his talent entries were much simpler.

Especially since he actually had an [Iron Fist] entry.

However, neither of these people had a high Realm.

It seemed they were not here to accept Monster Hunting tasks.

Instead, they were here waiting to ambush people.

This type of person is usually someone with no ability who wants to gain something for nothing.

Especially pure newcomers like Lin Yi, who were their targets.

Lin Yi arrived outside the 'Task Room' and stood at the back of the line.

There weren't many people coming to accept Monster Hunting tasks tonight; there were only five or six people in line.

The person sitting in the Task Room was still wearing that Sun Wukong mask.

The entire process was silent; not a single person spoke.

After handing over the task token and 'Sun Wukong' performed some operations under the table.

He returned the task token, and then the person accepting the task would enter the next room, where they could exchange it for a file folder.

And the file folder inside contained the information for the task to be completed...

Ten minutes later.

Lin Yi walked out holding his task file folder.

He subconsciously glanced at those two people again.

Their gazes darted away again...

Lin Yi ignored them and walked straight out through the back door of the small courtyard.

There were two file folders; one was the reward for the completed task.

The other was the newly accepted Monster Hunting task.

After stepping out of the courtyard, the alley was pitch black.

Only the streetlights outside could faintly dispel some of the darkness.

Lin Yi did not stop his pace and walked straight out of the alley.

When he arrived at the roadside.

He unexpectedly saw several people like him, wearing hats and masks or face coverings.

They were waiting silently for the bus here.

Just as Lin Yi stood still, waiting for the bus to arrive.

Three more people walked out of the alley behind him.

Lin Yi turned and glanced at them.

Two of them were the ones who had been watching Lin Yi in the courtyard earlier.

And the third person had not been in the courtyard earlier, or at least had not been discovered by Lin Yi.

When he looked at the talent entries above the third person's head.

Lin Yi's expression changed slightly.

[4th Realm Martial Artist Certification: Possesses impressive martial arts talent]

[Golden Light Fist: A fist technique that works in conjunction with Qi and blood]

[Body Tempering: A strong body, tempered countless times]

[Dao of Gods: A comprehension ability; through books, paintings, etc., one comprehends the mysteries within, thereby advancing one's martial arts cultivation...]

Chapter 22 Are you looking for me? (Seeking collections and follows)

A few minutes later.

A bus slowly drove up.

Lin Yi and the others all boarded the bus.

And the three who came later also followed him on.

After boarding, Lin Yi chose a seat near the back door and sat down.

Clearly, those three people were coming for Lin Yi.

They respectively chose the seats in front of, behind, and to the right of Lin Yi to sit down.

Lin Yi acted as if he didn't notice them and closed his eyes after sitting down.

In reality, he had opened his personal panel.

Checking the harvest of tonight.

[Name: Lin Yi]

[Occupation: Student]

[Martial Arts Realm: 0 Star 4th Realm]

[Qi and Blood Value: 85%]

Apart from plundering two blue talent entries from the two Dog Demons earlier.

The increase in Qi and Blood Value was not too much.
