Chapter 78: Sorry, part-time job

Um? Someone is staring at you?

"What does it look like?"

"I can't see clearly! He's wearing pitch black."

With a raised eyebrow, Yelan lost interest in silence.

"It's nothing. Maybe the people from the Rotten Cult were so disturbed by you that they wanted to stab someone in the middle of the night."

puff!

Xu Lezhang almost lost his temper.

"The Rotten Cult? They also live here?"

Looking at his appearance, Yelan clicked her tongue lightly.

There's something wrong with you. Why are you more panicked when you see the Rotten Cult than when you see the murderer who plotted against him?

"That's different! Although the old man was fooled into sending me to this place, he was also well equipped! It would take a long time for the people in the stadium to kill me, and you are here With the Flame God of War by my side, I will definitely have peace of mind.”

God, God of Fire, Ye Lan’s face turned dark, what kind of nickname did you give me? Isn’t it embarrassing?

However, Xu Lezhang obviously hadn't realized this yet, and he didn't finish his words. He was pacing and anxious.

"But the Rotting Cult is different! They are unpredictable and fierce. I heard they are also good at extracting souls. Once you fall into their hands, you will slowly rot from bottom to top. Life is worse than death. !”

Night blue...

Is the Rotten Cult so notorious?

"Okay, stop pretending. There's a bed over there. You can move it away from me."

Xu Lezhang looked overjoyed.

"Okay! I promise to be honest!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Ye Lan stretching out a hand, somewhat puzzled by its meaning.

"Ah, Flame God of War, what are your instructions?"

Ye Lan's face was expressionless, feeling that he was almost immune.

"Money, don't forget to pay it daily."

Xu Lezhang:...

Does today count?

After taking over this 'protection work', it ended today after a total of three hours, including two and a half hours of Yelan disappearing, and the remaining half hour of standing outside...

This money is so profitable!

"The room fee is 20 Mist Blue Coins per week. I booked it for two weeks. For meals, I will eat three meals a day. I can eat vegetarian noodles. For each portion of four Mist Blue Coins, you can settle the payment until the day of the festival... which is three days. , a total of 76 mist blue coins.”

Xu Lezhang:...

This ghost room costs 20 mist blue coins a week? A bowl of plain noodles costs 4 mist blue coins? Are you really not reporting false accounts to me? Why didn't he grab it?

"Okay!" Xu Lezhang beamed.

What is this? How much is your life worth?

The lights went out. Yelan lay on the bed and closed her eyes.

Now it seems that everything is becoming more and more obvious. Although we are not yet sure exactly what we should do, we are better able to prevent and prepare in every aspect.

For example, headed by Arthur, the Town Guard, and even every citizen of Sewerage Town seen so far, have only one core idea, which is to eliminate the anomalies in Sewerage Town and save Sewerage Town.

This coincides with my own purpose, as long as it is not really as crazy as the Sunset Cult said.

As for the current team of Yuhui Divine Religion, it is even clearer.

Stop the desperate 'self-immolation' in Sewage Town, maintain the status quo as much as possible, monitor the town guards, and at the same time keep up with the trends of the Rotten Cult and respond to them.

But what we have to consider here is also the biggest doubt - Xia Qingyu said that her coming to Sewage Town is still too vague.

What kind of mission would send their team here?

They must have been sent here to do something, not to struggle for survival like they are now.

My motivation is even simpler. It is the same from beginning to end, which is to contain anomalies. The only things that change are the ever-changing ‘teammates’.

That's all I can understand now, but it's obvious that there are more than just a few existing forces here, such as...

Yelan opened her eyes and looked sideways at Xu Lezhang, who was sleeping next to the other wall.

"Are you the first heir in the family?"

Xu Lezhang was stunned, obviously he didn't expect the mysterious boss sleeping in the same room to say such a thing.

"Ah...yes."

Ye Lan narrowed his eyes.

So how is it possible? The deeper you think about it, the less reasonable it becomes. In such a huge family, can the head of the family be so stupid that he can be played like an assembly line all the way to death without realizing it?

No matter what period of family power struggle there is, the first heir is always the 'secondary favorite', and his supporters are one of the largest even in terms of number. Even if the head of the family is confused, is there not one sober person left among the supporters on his side?

Ye Lan couldn't understand it from the beginning to the end. How could the family owner be allowed to play like this until he died while he was still alive? Are you tired of living?

"Will you have reinforcements?" Ye Lan asked. "No matter what happens, when your supporters react, they will help you find a solution, right?"

Xu Lezhang was silent for a moment and shook his head.

"I have no idea."

Yelan squinted her eyes, so vague again...

"Let me ask another question. If I hadn't come, would the fire really have burned you to death?"

"Isn't that nonsense..." Xu Lezhang muttered. "certainly……"

"No!" Xu Lezhang explained. "Unless it can burn for several days and no one rescues me, I may die from exhaustion of strength."

Yelan's brows raised. Xu Lezhang's words always switched between honesty and concealment, making her still unsure whether he was lying or truthful.

"Why are you screaming so miserably?"

If I hadn't heard his scream, I really wouldn't have gone crazy like that. The blue-haired captain of the Rotten God Cult would come in a little while, and then the fire would be extinguished, and he would be rescued.

Although at that time I didn't expect that the people of the Rotten God Cult would come to put out the fire, after all, before knowing everyone's purpose, everyone is a potential opponent.

"I must be scared! How scary! There are fires and thick smoke all around, and I feel like I'm suffocating even when I'm driving my superpowers!"

Ye Lan:...

It's really hard to imagine him as a hidden boss with ulterior motives and his own secret power...

"What are your plans tomorrow?"

Xu Lezhang was stunned and answered as a matter of course.

"Of course I'll follow you! I paid you, don't think you can get rid of me."

When it comes to this, Xu Lezhang is very excited and shows a very lucky feeling.

"As for the original plan, I must contact the officials of Sewage Town first to see if my identity is useful. Generally speaking, I can apply for the protection of local forces, and they can also get a considerable reward from my father. Isn't this easier? I met you directly."

Ye Lan was silent, hesitant to speak.

"But is it possible that I am not from Sewage Town?"

Xu Lezhang obviously had a blackout.

"Ah? Your clothes..."

Ye Lan once again spit out the speechless answer.

"Part-time job, just took office today."

Xu Lezhang:...
