The world has turned into Hell's Game, why should I stay human? Chapter 339 - 318 Task Completion 150%2

Soon, there was nothing under Liu Zheng’s feet.

"Task completion 150%!"

looked at the number displayed on the dial and shouted with exaggerated emphasis.

Even 4399 couldn’t keep a calm expression and cracked a smile.

The performance reward exponentially increased with the task completion rate; this one reward was worth half a year of their usual efforts.

"Well done."

gave Liu Zheng a hard pat on the shoulder, then patted San Huamao’s head.

"Is this a high completion rate?"

He asked, pretending to be puzzled.

"You’re really showing off, huh? The whole Border Managent Agency doesn’t see a completion rate this high even once a year."

laughed and cursed.

"Not just one year, three years."

shook his head.

"I really don’t know how you did it."

clicked his tongue in wonder.

"I don’t know either."

Liu Zheng said with a silly smile.

"You not knowing is exactly right; knowing would an there’s a problem."

laughed out loud.

If Liu Zheng still retained his outside mories, neither of them would be able to laugh about it.

"You’re a real talent. If you need anything in the future, just contact either of us. As long as you’re not trying to cross the border, we can still help a bit."

said enthusiastically and 4399 also nodded reservedly.

"Then I’ll thank you two big brothers in advance."

Liu Zheng eagerly took the opportunity to climb the social ladder.

"Good, good. Let’s go outside and talk more."

8848, finding him increasingly agreeable, pulled him outside.

"Wait a mont."

Key Man called out to them.

"What’s up, 17173?"

looked at him, puzzled.

"I’m not like you two, handing out empty promises."

Key Man pulled out a paper cup and poured a cup of coffee.

"Want cream and sugar?"

He looked at Liu Zheng.

Liu Zheng looked to 8848 and 4399.

"Go ahead, drink. Their coffee is the good stuff, hardly sothing you can get outside."

nodded.

"Then extra cream and sugar, thanks."

So he replied.

"Alright."

Key Man nodded, took out a carton of milk and a bag of sugar from a drawer, and added them to the cup.

Even though the cup was already full of coffee, the liquid level didn’t rise at all when the whole carton was poured in.

"Drink it here, it can’t be taken away."

Key Man instructed.

"Okay."

Liu Zheng walked over, picked up the cup, and without any system prompts, trusted that the Border Managent Agency people had no reason to harm him, then tipped his head back and drained the coffee in one gulp.

The first sip tasted just like ordinary instant coffee, reminiscent of Nescafe’s canned latte in reality.

Of course, it wasn’t bad.

"Don’t tell anyone else."

Key Man warned, then lowered his head to read the newspaper.

"Don’t worry, my brother can keep a secret."

vouched for Liu Zheng, and then pulled him outside where San Huamao once again climbed onto Liu Zheng’s head.

"No worries, you don’t need to be too tense, it’s not like it’s top secret or anything."

As they walked, 8848 tried to reassure Liu Zheng.

"Then why did that big brother say that?"

He asked.

"Well, because it’s against the rules. After all, that stuff is considered office supplies, and giving it to outsiders isn’t really proper. Of course, it’s not a big deal, there’s more than one person doing it."

shrugged.

"You talk too much."

glared at him.

"Haha, sorry, sorry, just got carried away. Man, you have no idea, my wife just had twins, I’ve been losing hair over it night after night. With this mission reward, I can finally breathe a little easier."

mused.

The wages at the Border Managent Agency were relatively high compared to other departnts in City Hall, but no matter how high the wages, they couldn’t withstand constant expenses.

Especially since the human employees at City Hall tended to stick together requiring frequent social spending, which made money flow like water.

But if you didn’t participate, you would be isolated and soon be stripped off your privileges.

"I just did a little bit of the work, the main effort was all yours."

Liu Zheng modestly replied.

"Hmm? Why does that sound a bit off?"

paused.

"Get in the car."

4399, unable to watch any longer, opened the car door and shoved these two idiots inside.

"Both of you, the City Hall should take care of any troubles I may face after this task is completed, right?"

Liu Zheng asked.

"Relax, no matter how powerful Peacock is, he can’t oppose the entire City Hall."

Once inside the car, 8848 spoke more casually.

"And Mr. Li."

He reminded.

"That’s not a problem either. Rember, there’s only one sky over tropolis, and that’s the City Hall."

pointed towards the car roof.

"Then I’m relieved."

Liu Zheng smiled and said.

He still believed what 8848 said.

After all, the Border Managent Bureau, which held the authority to cross different worlds, was just a departnt of the City Hall.

Even the notoriously fierce Bloody Restaurant had to go through the channels of the Border Managent Bureau to purchase supplies.

He and Peacock had no deep-seated hatred; it was just a matter of losing so face, and City Hall should still be able to cover for him.

"No problem, if anything really happens, just call or 4399."

said.

"Alrighty."

Liu Zheng understood that when he made that call, it would be the ti they settled their debts of gratitude.

"He just lost two temporary worker slots to , contact if you want to co. Peacock’s reach doesn’t extend to the Border Managent Bureau."

said.

"The restaurant wouldn’t let people go, right?"

"You just run away during a delivery, and it’s no big deal not going back to the city. We work outside the city most of the ti anyway. There are many fun places outside. I’ll take you around when you co."

winked at him, a sly grin on his face.

"Hehehe."

Liu Zheng laughed along but didn’t really agree in his heart.

The restaurant might let him off out of regard for City Hall, but Si Xue that old hag definitely wouldn’t let him go.

"We’ve arrived."

suddenly said.

Liu Zheng and San Huamao got out of the car. Not far away was the Bloody Restaurant.

"Finally back."

He couldn’t help but feel emotional.

Although he had only stayed in Yate for one day, it felt like more than a month.

Probably like the ti spent in the Bloody Restaurant, the schedule was too packed.

"Liu Zheng, co here."

The car window rolled down, and 8848 called him over.

"What is it, Brother 8848?"

Liu Zheng asked.

"This is from 4399; wear it when you go to larger places to spend, and you will get so discounts, except in the black market, of course."

handed him a silver dal.

The diamond-shaped dal had an unknown plant engraved on it.

"This is proof for family mbers of distinguished employees of City Hall."

explained.

"Ah, I don’t think it’s quite right for to hold this. Better leave it for Brother 4399’s own family."

Liu Zheng tried to decline.

"Keep it, I don’t have family anymore."

said calmly.

"Well... okay then."

Since he put it that way, Liu Zheng could only accept it.

"This is a thank-you gift for those two temporary jobs, separate from the rewards for the procurent task."

added.

"Listening to Brother 4399 is never wrong; he’s known in the Border Managent Bureau as a genuinely nice guy. Hanging out with , I might sell you for money, but hanging with him, even if he has to sell you, he’d tell you in advance."

laughed.

"That’s pretty decent indeed."

Liu Zheng tugged at the corner of his mouth.

"Let’s go."

The car window rolled up, and the black official car sped away.

"Salmon, I’ll give you the City Hall task reward separately. Alright?"

He took San Huamao off his head and then stroked its chin.

"No problem ow, just buy more little dried fish ow~"

San Huamao squinted, tail swaying as it spoke.

"Alright, is a ton enough?"

Liu Zheng said with a smile.

"A ton is too much ow, I’ll get fat ow, I’ll turn into a big fat pig ow~"

San Huamao first got excited, then worried.

"Don’t worry, Salmon, such a cute little kitten like you can never get fat no matter how much you eat."

He reassured.

"Really ow?"

San Huamao said with surprise.

"Don’t lay a hand on soone else’s cat, you jerk!"

A human face erged on its back and fiercely said to Liu Zheng.

"Haha, let’s go, Napoleon must be getting anxious."

Liu Zheng gave an awkward smile and then headed towards the kitchen passageway.
