Chapter 4: District C Overseer Lu Luo

After another intense feeling of discomfort, Lin Xuan had already stepped through the door of light and returned to the Germinal Organization’s base.

He used his Weaken skill to suppress his level from level nine Zero Realm to level three Zero Realm, and his attributes were also suppressed by 20 points.

In front of him, many wasteland reclaimers had already lined up and were handing in their items.

There were many items that could be obtained in the Giant Rock Cave. Including the minerals and demon body parts, the mission requirement of taking back ten items was not considered high or low.

If one was unlucky, one might not be able to complete the mission.

For example, this time, the Earth Dragon King had been restless for a total of 28 hours, causing many people to be unable to find items for an entire day.

Lin Xuan swept his gaze over and discovered that many of the wasteland reclaimers were dejected and anxious. Clearly, they had not completed their mission.

At this moment, District B’s Overseer, Yang Wei, was berating.

“Liu Jia! Seven materials. You failed to complete the mission!”

“Zhang San, six materials! Your mission has not been completed!”

“Zhao Yong, 19 materials and even obtained a Black Scale Snake Gall. Very good!”

Zhao Yong smiled obsequiously. “It’s all thanks to Brother Yang’s good guidance. I especially gave this snake gallbladder to Brother Yang!”

The Overseer named Yang Wei laughed loudly and said, “This uncommon green sword is yours!”

The other wasteland reclaimers revealed envious expressions.

Consuming the Black Scale Snake Gall could permanently increase one’s agility. Such an item that could permanently increase one’s attribute points was rare. No wonder Yang Wei was so happy.

“A Black Scaled Snake Gall?”

Lin Xuan could not help but laugh.

He still had 13 Black Scaled Snake Gall in his consciousness space and had already eaten 10.

Yang Wei patted Zhao Yong’s shoulder in satisfaction and signaled for the next wasteland reclaimer to go forward.

Seeing the materials the other party handed over, Yang Wei immediately turned hostile and was furious.

“Li Qiang, there are actually only three materials. What are you doing?! This is already the third time you failed to complete the mission!”

Yang Wei went forward and kicked the wasteland reclaimer called Li Qiang directly.

The latter’s face was very painful, and his back was arched like a cooked shrimp.

However, even so, he still forced himself to get up and hug the overseer, Yang Wei’s leg, “Brother Yang, I…”

“Get lost! You failed three times in a row. The organization can unilaterally cancel the contract. Get lost!”

Yang Wei had a disgusted expression and kicked the latter far away.

“Brother Yang, I beg you to give me a chance. I still have a child to support. I can’t lose…” Li Qiang forced himself to get up again.

However, this time, he did not even manage to touch Yang Wei’s feet before he was held back by the two thugs beside him and directly thrown out.

“Do you see this? This is the outcome of not completing the mission!”

“There are many refugees waiting to eat outside. Since you haven’t completed the mission, someone will naturally replace you!”

“It’s your blessing that the organization signed a contract with you. Don’t be ignorant!”

Yang Wei looked around and berated sternly.

All the wasteland reclaimers who were swept by his gaze lowered their heads nervously, not daring to show any displeasure.

To the wasteland reclaimers, the overseers were their absolute superiors and could not be defied.

Lin Xuan sighed.

He was also quite unlucky to have an overseer like Yang Wei.

Just now, Zhao Yong had given him a Black Scale Snake Gall, and Yang Wei had only given him an uncommon green sword.

Even if he also handed in a few snake gallbladders, he would probably not be rewarded much by this strict overseer, let alone improve his living environment, identity, and status.

If only he could get a different overseer.

Soon, it was Lin Xuan’s turn.

Lin Xuan also made a nervous appearance, not being too high-profile.

Yang Wei saw that it was him and sneered, “You are the same as Li Qiang. You have also failed two missions. If you don’t complete the mission this time, the organization can also unilaterally cancel the contract with you.”

After saying that, Yang Wei took out a scanner and prepared to scan Lin Xuan’s collar.

At this moment, footsteps sounded from the other side of the hall.

“Yang Wei, do you have the Black Scaled Snake Gall? Give me seven.”

A clear voice interrupted Yang Wei.

Immediately after, a cute and cold loli with a high ponytail and a small suit entered his sight. She seemed to be only 13 or 14 years old.

Lin Xuan was stunned. He knew this person’s identity.

This little loli’s name was Lu Luo. She looked harmless, but she was actually the overseer of District C and was on the same level as Yang Wei.

He also heard that Lu Luo originally did not have this young appearance, but she had encountered an accident and ended up like this.

However, from Lu Luo’s tone, it was obvious that she was not being polite with Yang Wei. She opened her mouth and said, “Give them to me.” She wanted Yang Wei to give her seven Black Scaled Snake Galls for free.

Even if Yang Wei had it, he would definitely not be willing to give it up.

Yang Wei’s expression darkened. “Lu Luo, you manage your District C and I manage my District B. If you want the Black Scale Snake Gall, get your wasteland reclaimers to hand it over. Why should I give mine to you?”

Lu Luo walked coldly towards Yang Wei.

Then, she grabbed the latter’s arm with one hand and swung it.

Bang!

Yang Wei’s head smashed onto the ground, and blood instantly seeped out from his nose.

“This is why,” Lu Luo said indifferently.

Yang Wei rolled over and looked at her in shock and anger, “You’re already at the level nine Third Realm?”

Lu Luo frowned. “No sh*t. Otherwise, why would I go around looking for these items to increase my attributes?”

Lin Xuan was enlightened.

One had to eat 10 rare Zero Realm items like the Black Scaled Snake Gall and the Barbaric Bull Horn before one reached the Fourth Realm. This Lu Luo was already at the level nine Third Realm and was clearly prepared to advance to the Fourth Realm. No wonder she was in a hurry to find the Black Scaled Snake Gall.

Yang Wei gritted his teeth and could only say, “…I’m not afraid of you. I just don’t want to hurt the friendship between colleagues… I’ll give you one for free… How about you guys! Do any of you have the Black Scale Snake Gall? Take it out!”

The wasteland reclaimers curled their lips secretly. If he wanted to admit defeat, so be it. Why did he have to put up a front?

The wasteland reclaimers were silent and looked down.

“Nothing?” Yang Wei turned to Lu Luo. “Look, they also don’t have it.”

Lu Luo frowned. “I know that you must have hidden a few of them to show filial piety to Yang Wei. I’ll give you a condition. As long as you take out a Black Scaled Snake gallbladder, you can join my District C and I can even remove the bad record on your collar.”

As soon as he said this, the wasteland reclaimers in District B immediately thought of something.

Lin Xuan was the same.

He was about to change his overseer and now seemed to be a good opportunity.

Yang Wei also sensed their thoughts and immediately glared fiercely at these wasteland reclaimers. The threat in his eyes was self-evident.

After all, despite not being able to deal with Lu Luo, he could still deal with them.

The wasteland reclaimers flinched at his glare.

Even if they ran from District B to District C, Yang Wei would still be their superior. If he caused them any trouble, they would definitely be unable to bear the consequences.

Yang Wei sneered and was proud of himself.

Those who could obtain the Black Scale Snake Galls in the Giant Rock Cave were at least level four Zero Realm.

Previously, Yang Wei said that there were many refugees outside. He only meant that there were many martial artists with cultivation from level one to level three Zero Realm. However, after advancing to level four Zero Realm, one could already be considered a relatively powerful Zero Realm martial artist.

Lu Luo was blatantly trying to poach his people. This was intolerable!

At this moment, Lu Luo glanced at him. “Are you itching for a beating?”

Yang Wei’s hair stood on end as he turned his head away and muttered in his heart, A man can choose to submit or retreat. He convinced himself to not lower to the level of a little girl.

In this oppressive atmosphere, Lin Xuan raised his hand.

“I have the Black Scaled Snake Gall.”
