Give Them a Taste of the Current Era!

However, to be honest, Jackal really has nothing to do with Liu Bai... at least not at the moment.

Compared to Raven, who already has the self-awareness of being a mistress, or rather, the self-awareness of selling himself, Jackal and Liu Bai are the proper superiors and subordinates. Apart from the occasional idle chat, they have little contact. They seem more proper than Raven in every way. It's just that Jackal hasn't switched sides and still carries the label of World Serpent.

The Jackal thought for a moment, then gave the Raven a disdainful look.

How can you be so shameless, acting like a superior or subordinate?

Raven didn't care at all. To be honest, the money Liu Bai gave him made Raven feel that it would be impolite not to offer himself up.

At least if you offer yourself up a little... or even just a few times, it can at least be considered as some form of income, right?

Raven's indifferent expression only fueled the Jackal's contempt. Being crushed by money, the Jackal was practically ready to openly declare his disdain.

Then...

The Raven, noticing the Jackal's gaze, slapped the Jackal.

Damn it, that bastard who deals with money all day long, and owns a pharmaceutical company that makes money faster than robbery, how could he understand the pain of a working-class person like her?

"Damn it! Raven, are you crazy?!" The Jackal, who had just been slapped hard, now fully understood Mei's feelings earlier.

However, compared to Mei, the Jackal was not afraid of the Raven at all, so it cursed directly.

"I suspect you misappropriated my salary before," Raven replied calmly, wiping his gloves.

"Pah! Your meager salary is not enough for me to embezzle! I could earn your lifetime salary by selling two doses of medicine to those rich people!"

He actually said it! He actually said it...

Although this was reality, it did nothing to stop the Raven's face from growing darker and darker.

Snap!

The Jackal also got Raven on the other face by the raven.

"A profiteer."

"?" The Jackal looked bewildered. "It's not like I'm not going to pay for treatment! At most, there will be some aftereffects."

The Raven expressed its jealousy.

Raven was in charge of diplomacy with Gray Serpent in his early years. Obviously, this was a job that was somewhat lucrative, but not very lucrative—at least not much compared to the money Raven needed.

As is well known, Raven later switched careers to become an assassin, which paid a lot of money, but he had to hand over a portion to the organization.

Then... well, the island sank, half a lifetime of hard work wasted, and there was no way to make money after that. The fact that Raven didn't immediately go into "life-or-death mode" when she first met Kiana shows that Raven was already quite rational.

Later, he left World Serpent and opened his own bar, which didn't make much money. Although he managed it well, Raven himself wasn't used to it.

Now Jackal is saying he can earn her a lifetime's salary by selling just two doses of medicine... Well, Raven has a clear understanding of reality, and she knows that as long as Jackal doesn't make tactical decisions and delegates power, he can handle everything, including making money, all by himself. He's a genuinely capable scientist, not just someone obsessed with research. But that doesn't stop Raven from being bursting with jealousy and slapping Jackal twice.

However, Raven was quite restrained; after all, if she really used her strength, the Jackal would now be writhing on the ground like a caterpillar.

"You deserve a beating." Raven had no intention of changing his mind.

"If you need money, you can borrow it from me. I'm not... okay, I really can't lend it to you."

Jackal was initially a little aggrieved, but as she talked, she came to realize the problem herself.

Now that the Raven is asking her for money, she'll definitely give it to him, but before that... well...

"Alright, if that's the case, I can understand your mentality of dating a rich man." Jackal shrugged and dropped the subject.

Moreover, the Jackal figured that if it provoked the Raven any further, it might really turn into a caterpillar on the ground...

When I went to the dentist for a toothache, it turned out that my wisdom tooth was pushing against my gums... The dentist just glanced at it and told me to leave.

It's a little better than yesterday, but it still hurts from time to time, and I can't open my mouth very wide, so I can only eat fruit by biting it...

Chapter 477 Giving them a shock of modern civilization

"Well, wouldn't it be better if you two were a little more friendly? Aren't we all friends?"

Elysia stepped forward to comfort her.

She could tell that Miss Natasha was surprisingly sensitive to money, while Miss Jackal... or rather, the Doctor, had no concept of money at all.

It's quite rare to see these two get together.

"With her..." Jackal and Raven's eyes twitched simultaneously, then they looked away.

Come on, it's only because we were all on the same side back then, and now there's a big boss above us, plus Jackal's personality has improved a lot, otherwise we would have already started fighting.

"Speaking of which, I'm also a little curious. What did Ms. Jackal mean by 'marrying a rich man' just now?" Eden cast a scrutinizing glance from the side. "Ms. Natasha, could you explain? Of course, it's okay if you don't want to say."

"..." Raven really wanted to answer that it was inconvenient for her to say, but... wouldn't not saying anything at this time be an admission of guilt?

As for just making one up?

Raven simply didn't believe that the other party would think that someone of her high-level combat power would so easily choose to be kept by someone.

That's it, we're stuck in a dead end.

"So, Miss Natasha, the superior-subordinate relationship you were just talking about is the kind you have in bed?" Eden asked with interest.

"You, you're joking. I'm just Lord Liu Bai's direct bodyguard. The 'marrying a rich man' thing is just that Lord Liu Bai is generous with his salary."

In that instant, Raven wanted to give itself a thumbs up for its own cleverness.

"I see." Eden glanced at the Raven again, then fell silent.

Direct bodyguards?

Eden wasn't stupid. Not only had she noticed the momentary unease on Raven's face, but Eden also had absolutely no faith in the profession of direct bodyguard.

If Liu Bai didn't have a physical body, Eden wouldn't care at all, but since Liu Bai has a physical body... then this bodyguard becomes quite intriguing.

Besides being a bodyguard, does she also need to work as a personal secretary?

In fact, although Eden's guess was a bit off, it wasn't far off. Currently, there are only three excellent secretaries in Schicksal: Amber, Rita, and Raven.

Amber is Otto's full-time secretary, but unfortunately, she's Otto's personal secretary, and Liu Bai isn't familiar with her. Of course, if Liu Bai were to actually openly advertise for a secretary, Otto would definitely come running to apply.

Although Rita and Raven are not full-time secretaries, they are both versatile and can do anything. They are also very familiar with Liu Bai, making them convenient to use.

To be honest, when Rita is unavailable, Raven is indeed her secretary, always on standby.

"Secretary..."

Elysia suddenly remembered Rita from her dream.

"By the way Natasha, have you and Liu Bai made love?"

No! Absolutely not!

Raven was terrified that if she answered "yes," she would truly become Natasha "sauce."

"I see." Elysia looked slightly disappointed, but then perked up again. "Then I'll take you with me next time."

"Aili ..."

Aponia finally spoke, but her holy voice betrayed a deep sense of helplessness.

Eden also looked like she was facepalming; in terms of openness, both of them had to admit defeat to Elysia.

"Oh! I won't forget you Aponia!"

"That's not the issue..."

Aponia sighed, but looking at Elysia's excited expression, she knew that Elysia knew what she was saying, but just didn't want to understand.

"However, there's no need to involve me in that kind of thing."

For Aponia, her first time offering herself to the gods... she still wanted to be alone with Liu Bai, rather than under the watchful eyes of the noisy pink-haired girl.

Forgive her for not being thick-skinned enough.

"Me too, no need to call me." Although Eden was prepared to be lenient, there is a fundamental difference between leniency and Elysia's attempt to incite chaos.

"... Have I gotten myself into some serious trouble?"

Raven's eyelids twitched. She wasn't stupid. At first, she didn't understand what "bringing you along to play" meant, but after listening to the conversation of these people, how could Raven still not understand?

Are all the topics discussed by these seniors this explosive?

"Hehe, you're already guaranteed a place in your next life. Do you want me to give you some medicine so you can become a mother and gain status sooner?" the Jackal joked with a laugh. "Don't worry, I won't charge you during the trial period."

"I dare not take your medicine—and why is it free during the trial period? Will you charge me afterwards?"

"Now that your probation period is over, I reckon you're a big shot by now. How can I not squeeze some money out of you?"

The Raven fell silent.

She didn't remain silent because of the Jackal's logic, but because she had discovered another fact.

Even with her current savings of up to one hundred million US dollars, she is not even considered a tycoon in the eyes of the Jackal, and is not even worth taking advantage of.

Tsk, now that I think about it, I really want to rob this guy. How come I never realized I had such an easy little treasure trove right next to me before?

Never mind.

Raven was just thinking about it. Although Jackal was talking nonsense, he was still somewhat considerate of her. Besides, she had been hurt by reality before, Raven had developed a tolerance for it.

"Oh..."

Medicine... Eden looked thoughtful.

Don't get me wrong, she wasn't interested in the Jackal's medicine, but rather in Mobius. Could that guy use some technological means to sneak it out?

"I'm back."

As Eden was pondering this, Mobius returned with Gretel and Mei, who was with Prometheus.

"What were you discussing just now?" Mobius asked, looking at the group with some curiosity.

"About Elysia... would you like to play with Elysia?" Eden asked Mobius, avoiding the main question.

"Ha... don't disgust me."

"Hey! Doctor, if you keep saying that, I'm going to get sad!" Elysia said, her eyes brimming with tears.

"Don't give me that disgusting look. Let's go, get on the plane."

Mobius, who had initially been somewhat curious, had now completely lost his curiosity.

Who wants to team up with Elysia?! It makes it seem like I'm being given charity by Elysia.

Does she need Elysia's charity? Who does she think she is!

Eden gave Mobius a very appreciative look. She liked Mobius's inexplicable confidence. If it weren't for the fact that Mobius and Liu Bai had a really good relationship, she would have been prepared to see Mobius cry.

However, Mobius can now act recklessly.

When Mei mentioned the issue of first come, first served, she realized that the first choice was between Rita and Aponia, so the next one should be Mobius. This is an inherent advantage, and there's no denying it. With this advantage, Mobius will definitely be able to secure a place near the front.

Seeing Mobius lead Gretel onto the plane first, the others didn't delay either. Raven prayed for Rita as he entered the cockpit.

May that guy try his best to live each day to the fullest.

Achoo—!

"What's wrong, Miss Rita?" Li Sushang looked at Rita with some concern.

Li Sushang was quite amiable when it didn't involve Liu Bai.

"I always feel like someone is cursing me."

"If I don't curse you, who should I curse?" Otto, sitting in the main seat, spoke quietly. "Don't forget what day it is today... The old fogies of the last civilization are about to rise from the ashes."

After realizing that the guys from the previous civilization were also here to steal their Lord God, Otto became much more blunt in his speech.

"Rita, you might already be being targeted by more than a dozen guys at Bianka's level."

"This joke isn't funny, Your Grace." Rita seemed quite relaxed. "How could there be more than ten? Ten would be pretty good... And would they really dare to lay a hand on me? If they did, I'd gag on the spot and see who gets scared first."

"..."

Upon hearing this, Otto unconsciously began to tighten his grip.

... Why is this pen so hard?

After squeezing the pen a few times without breaking it, Otto silently gave in to it.
