51: Chapter 51 Imperial City 51: Chapter 51 Imperial City So for a mont, it appeared very desolate.
“Bro, you play Star Ring?”
Chen Tian, who was sitting to the side, suddenly asked Su Mo.
Su Mo looked at Chen Tian with so confusion.
“Yeah, I do.”
“You play too?
What a coincidence, bro.
Do you have a guild?”
Chen Tian chatted up Su Mo as if they were old friends.
“I do.”
Su Mo responded perfunctorily and then turned his head to continue looking at the scenery outside the window, not wanting to chat much with Chen Tian.
Su Mo thought that would be the end of it, but contrary to his expectations, Chen Tian didn’t give up.
“Bro, how much salary can you get a month?”
“Not much.”
Su Mo replied, trying to keep his patience.
“Bro, it’s fate that we can sit together.
How about I show you a clear path?”
“A clear path?”
Su Mo also felt baffled.
Wasn’t this guy being a bit too enthusiastic?
Instinctively, he felt very averse to it.
“That’s right, how about earning 3000 a month, plus benefits like the five insurances and one housing fund, and there’s even a salary after death.”
Chen Tian spoke with great enthusiasm.
“Are you sure, that there’s such a high salary?”
A look of strangeness crossed Su Mo’s face as he spoke.
Zhao Han paid him a salary of only 2500 yuan, and that was already the standard for an elite combat squad.
One must know that the Dawn Guild ranked very high among the guilds in the country.
It seed quite unlikely to et soone randomly who would offer such a high salary.
“Of course.
Just quit your current guild, and I can refer you to join the Giant Guild and get these benefits.
Look, this is sothing many people can’t even beg for.
I’m only offering because we seem to have a connection.”
Chen Tian assured him, slapping his chest.
Su Mo imdiately realized upon hearing Chen Tian’s words that this must be the legendary recruitnt scam.
“No thanks, I don’t have the ability, and I don’t want to switch guilds.”
Su Mo replied outright.
“Forget about him, Brother Chen.
This guy obviously lacks ambition,” the youths seated in the row behind chid in.
Su Mo couldn’t be bothered with them and turned his head back to continue looking outside the window.
Seeing that Su Mo wasn’t taking the bait, Chen Tian didn’t continue his sales pitch.
He shifted his gaze to the other passengers sitting alone in the carriage and then left his seat.
After watching the scenery for a while, Su Mo took out his mobile phone, intending to catch up on so news.
But as he scrolled, it was almost all about Star Ring.
He subconsciously searched for information about the Giant Guild, and what he found was quite surprising.
The mbership of the Giant Guild was exceedingly large, and this guild was a bit different from others—it constantly advertised how wealthy it was and how good its benefits were.
It also publicly disclosed the daily earnings of the guild within the ga, preaching the slogan of getting rich through gaming.
What’s more, the Giant Guild was peculiarly aggressive, continually seeking investors and strategic partnership guilds.
No matter how he looked at it, sothing seed off.
It didn’t seem like a legitimate guild but more like a pyramid sche and recruitnt scam.
—————
Elsewhere, within a 500-ter-tall building in Imperial City, Lin Zinuo touched her forehead with one hand and asked her sisters.
“Later, a new mber will co to Imperial City.
Who’s free to pick them up at the train station?
I have a lot on my plate right now and can’t get away.”
“Pick soone up?
Wait, it’s not that wipeout engine, is it?”
The sisters reacted and asked curiously.
“What wipeout engine, stop talking nonsense.
They’re going to be one of us.”
Lin Zinuo scolded without any humor.
“No way, we’re not free either.
That guy caused so many of our brothers and sisters misery, and now you expect us to pick him up?
No chance!”
“Seriously, my sister kicked the bucket, and she keeps pestering , asking if she can use the guild’s ‘spark’.”
…
The sisters present all responded with evident rejection.
After listening, Lin Zinuo’s headache grew worse.
She wasn’t troubled by the fact that her sisters were unwilling to go, but rather by their rejection.
Su Mo had screwed over too many team mbers, and she estimated that his days ahead wouldn’t be easy.
If he followed standard procedure, it probably wouldn’t suffice.
Just then, a group of sisters walked by, chatting and laughing, led by a woman with blue hair, a cool deanor, and dressed in a leather jacket, who instinctively greeted Lin Zinuo.
“Sister Zinuo, good morning.”
Lin Zinuo’s eyes brightened, and without a word, she went up and grabbed her.
“Zi Qing, wait a second.”
Zi Qing and the other sisters were baffled, wondering why Zinuo was holding them up.
Even though they were from the sa guild, serving as deputy team leaders of the sa group, their responsibilities were generally quite different.
Zinuo was in charge of land operations while Zi Qing led the Sea Battle Departnt, and they didn’t usually have much interaction.
“What is it, Sister?”
“Help pick up soone, will you?”
“I’m a little busy right now.
For picking up people, you could ask soone else.”
Zi Qing tactfully declined.
She wasn’t naive enough to think it was just a simple errand.
If it really were that simple, anyone from the guild could have been asked to do it.
“Sister Zinuo, you can’t just take advantage of our free ti to make us work.”
Zi Qing’s companions complained one after another.
“It’s a handso young fresh at, you know.”
Zinuo replied with a smile.
“Ah, really?
Well, in that case, we’re available…”
The sisters around Zi Qing suddenly beca excited and shouted.
Zi Qing coughed and asked intelligently,
“Sister Zinuo, there’s no need to beat around the bush.
What’s the matter, really?
Is it just picking soone up?”
“You can’t hide anything from Zi Qing.
Su Mo is here to report to the guild, and I was thinking you could pick him up and make arrangents for him to stay at your place.
How about you do this favor?”
“Sister Zinuo, are you sure?
You know, the people staying at my place are all problematic.”
“Oh, it’s fine, it’s decided then!”
Zinuo was truly out of options.
…
On the high-speed train, Su Mo was looking through the Giant Guild’s information when suddenly his phone vibrated with a ssage from Lin Zinuo.
“After you get off the train, go through exit 14.
Soone will be there to pick you up.
Just look for a girl with blue hair and a black leather jacket, she’ll take care of everything.”
After reading the ssage, Su Mo didn’t pay it much mind.
Several hours later, the high-speed train sped into the Imperial City.
Towering steel skyscrapers appeared before his eyes.
The buildings were closely spaced, and the view was densely packed.
In the sunlight, the tallic sheen of these structures glittered brilliantly.
In midair, nurous suspended, winding expressways intertwined around the entire city.
Countless holographic advertisents played across various pri airspace sectors.
Su Mo found it all very novel and grew increasingly interested in this unfamiliar city.
Monts later, the train pulled into the station and slowly reached the platform.
Following the crowd, Su Mo walked off the train, surrounded by a sea of travelers, reminiscent of an anthill.
The announcents kept broadcasting a sweet welco ssage.
“Welco to the Imperial Capital Central Station…”
Standing still, Su Mo surveyed his surroundings, then followed the signs towards exit 14.
Along the way, he saw many intelligent robots.
These robots had unique appearances, so were shaped like animals and others like cylinders; they aggressively marketed various goods and offered convenient services.
