Divine-grade Evolution: God! My Gold Fish Is A Dragon! - Chapter 34
Chapter 34 I’ll Grind It into Powder for
You to Drink
Ye Haoran took a few steps to the counter, placed his ID on the scanner, and said, “I’m going to take on a mission.”
The staff member behind the counter verified his identity and asked politely, “Please provide us the mission number.”
“Uh…”
Ye Haoran scratched his head and looked at the screen full of missions.
On the other side, the feminine-looking young man was a little surprised when he saw Ye Haoran go over to accept the mission.
However, when he saw the hesitation in Ye Haoran’s eyes, he instantly laughed.
Since he didn’t have the ability to take on a mission, why did he pretend?
Ye Haoran didn’t have time to pay attention to him. He was now seriously looking at the options that suddenly popped up before him. [Chained options triggered, please choose.]
[Option 1: Accept a normal 1-star mission and complete it with the help of He Ning and the others. Reward: You will receive a large
amount of spiritual power.]
[Option 2: Accept a 5-star high difficulty
mission and shock everyone. Reward: Your
spirit level will increase by 1.]
[Option 3: Accept the only mission without a rank. Reward: Your goldfish evolution progress will increase by 10.]
Ye Haoran took a deep breath after looking through the options.
The options weren’t too difficult; the rewards were ridiculously generous!
Having his spirit level increase by one and his goldfish’s evolution progress increase by 10 would be very useful to him.
After weighing the three options, Ye Haoran chose the third.
His spirit level could be increased slowly, but the increment of the evolution progress of his goldfish was something hard to come by.
Based on his previous experience, progressing his goldfish’s evolution was an endless abyss that could not be filled without the richest man in the world.
The materials required for evolution had increased several times. It was too expensive for him now!
However, when Ye Haoran looked at the
requirements of the last two options, he
suddenly thought of something and his eyes lit up.
“Sir, have
you
made your choice?”
Ye Haoran came back to his senses and said to
the staff who was still waiting patiently, “Are there any conditions to accept the 5-star mission, number 7494?”
“Uh, there are no conditions for this. You just
need to pay the penalty in advance.”
A trace of shock flashed in the eyes of the
staff at the counter. The 5-star missions were
all related to powerful lord-level beasts. No one had taken them up for nearly half a month.
However, at the same time, the staff member’s eyes flashed with joy.
If she could recruit someone to successfully
complete a 5-star mission, the commission she would receive would be equivalent to half a month’s salary.
“There is a penalty? How much is it?” asked Ye Haoran as he raised his eyebrows.
“Well, in order to prevent the failure of the mission from wasting the employer’s time, we will collect 15% of the commission as the
penalty for breach of contract.”
The staff member smiled and said enthusiastically, “Mission 7494 requires you to kill a lord-level Lava Wolf. The reward is 10
million yuan. We’ll collect 1.5 million yuan from you in advance.”
Ye Haoran’s expression didn’t change, but his heart ached a little.
Was this fate? He only had 1.5 million in savings now, and the mission he had casually mentioned had a 1.5 million penalty.
He definitely wouldn’t be able to complete such a difficult mission. This money would be
wasted if he paid it.
However, when he thought of the possibility he had just assumed, Ye Haoran felt that it
was necessary to give it a try.
He took out his payment card, but did not pay
immediately. Instead, he asked the staff at the counter in a low voice, “Can you show me the unranked mission?”
The staff member was shocked and looked at
Ye Haoran with curiosity.
The unranked mission had always existed, but it would not be displayed. Generally, only the leaders of a few top spirit teams knew about
it.
Now, Ye Haoran was actually specifically requesting that mission. Could he be the heir of a renowned spirit team?
For a moment, the staff member could not
figure out Ye Haoran’s identity. She could only enter a string of passwords on the computer and pull up a mission.
Ye Haoran looked up and saw only a few short lines on the screen:
[Unranked mission: Kill the Beast Emperor in the scorching field.]
[Mission target level: Ominous]
[Mission reward: 1000 points. Collect them at
your local Spirit Bureau.] [Punishment for failure: Your reputation level will be reduced to bronze. You can only accept
1-star missions to increase your reputation level.]
Ye Haoran pondered for a moment. This punishment was nothing to him. Anyway, he couldn’t complete a high-level
mission. Besides, he was a student, not a member of a spirit team. He wouldn’t go in and out of the alternate dimension every day. As for his reputation, Ye Haoran thought
about it seriously and realized that he had nothing to lose.
“Let’s take this 5-star mission, number 7494 first.”
Ye Haoran handed over his payment card, and
the staff immediately began to process it.
Half a minute later, with a soft beep, the mission was successfully accepted. Ye Haoran stood where he was and concentrated, quietly awaiting the system prompt.
[5-star mission successfully accepted! Reward: Your spirit level has increased by 1.]
Immediately after, rich spiritual Qi emerged from his body and was transformed into spiritual power for him to absorb. Feeling that the spiritual power in his body
was being filled up, Ye Haoran did not calm down and absorb it. Instead, he quickly said to the staff, “Give me the unranked mission. Please hurry.”
The staff member wanted to reconfirm his
decision, but with his urging, she hurriedly processed it.
This time, she was even faster, completing the process in less than 20 seconds. [You have successfully accepted the unranked mission. Your goldfish evolution progress has increased by 10.]
[Error in issuing the reward. Rectifying the
error…]
As the system was in a state of confusion, the
spiritual Qi that was coming out of Ye Haoran’s body stopped abruptly. At the same time, the little goldfish’s evolution progress of 4/100 on the contract spirit interface was slowly increasing. In a short while, it had increased to 14. However, the spiritual Qi that the system had
rewarded Ye Haoran did not disappear. It still remained in his body and was slowly transformed into spiritual power. “It’s done!”
Ye Haoran was overjoyed. He didn’t expect the
system to have a bug.
He had wondered whether he could get two rewards if he completed the other option before the first reward was issued completely.
The facts proved that it was really possible! He exclaimed internally, “Aye, this is so good. I’m twice as happy!”
In the future, he wouldn’t just be cheating; he
would be cheating twice!
After a moment of joy, Ye Haoran turned around and caught a glimpse of the feminine-looking young man who was trying to escape. “Where are you going?”
Ye Haoran’s shout made the feminine-looking young man shiver in fear.
He really hadn’t expected Ye Haoran to
actually dare to accept missions. The latter had even accepted two. He had never even heard of one of the
missions, and the other one was a 5-star mission!
It had a 1.5 million penalty. He had never seen
such a large sum of money before, and the other party had paid it so casually! He didn’t even bat an eye at the amount!
Which family’s young master was this? He
was so rich!
At this moment, he understood that he had provoked someone he should not have.
Before he left home, his brother kept telling him that this place was full of crouching tigers and hidden dragons, and that he should not provoke others.
He really regretted not heeding that advice!
“Brother, what’s the matter?” asked the feminine-looking young man as turned his head around with a chuckle. There was no anger on his face at all.
“You seem to have forgotten something,” said Ye Haoran as he walked over and stood in front of him. “What did you bet again?” “Brother, what are you talking about? What bet?” replied the feminine-looking young man, pretending to be confused. He was planning to deny it.
“Huh? Are you planning to go back on your word?”
Ye Haoran raised his eyebrows and took out
his phone. The feminine-looking young man looked at it and saw a post on the homepage of Ye Haoran’s Weibo. Ye Haoran had uploaded a video of him making the bet.
“This, I, that…”
“Brother, you have to learn to be an honest
and good young man.”
Ye Haoran walked over and put an arm around
his shoulder, exerting force in his palm. Crack!
“Ah!” cried the feminine-looking young man
as his eyes widened. It was so painful that his eyeballs almost fell out of their sockets. The surrounding onlookers immediately looked over and spectated the show from afar. Contract spirits could not be used in the restricted area, so the level of a spiritualist was meaningless. Disputes were resolved with physical strength and status.
The feminine-looking young man was still screaming in pain. He was in so much pain
that his tears were flowing. Ye Haoran’s technique was too professional,
and his strength was ridiculously strong under the system’s enhancement. The waves of pain made the young man beg for mercy. “I was wrong, Brother!”
Ye Haoran nodded in satisfaction and pulled
him to the counter. He pointed at the counter
made of pure marble and said, “Then let’s settle the bet. Eat it.”
“Uh…”
The feminine-looking young man was forced
to walk forward helplessly. After taking a few
glances at the marble counter, he turned
around and asked pitifully, “Brother, how do I
eat this?”
“Yes, it’s indeed a little difficult for you,” said
Ye Haoran as he touched his chin and nodded.
He then said, “I will lower the difficulty for
you. I’ll grind this marble counter into powder and you can drink it with water.”
The feminine-looking young man was taken
aback.
Was he serious?
The young man thought that Ye Haoran was
going to let him off the hook, yet he was actually planning to go through with it? How long would it take to grind such a large
marble counter into powder and drink it with
water?
Even if he did drink it, how was he going to
digest it?
Wouldn’t the marble form sediment in his
stomach? In the future, would he have a stone
in his stomach?
However, after seeing Ye Haoran’s malicious smile, the feminine-looking young man looked at the counter in front of him
helplessly.
In this situation, if he didn’t eat it, he would
probably have to leave on a stretcher.
