Learn from the Lion King, a Fine Example!

The atmosphere on the tarmac gradually turned cold.

Xu Nan looked at the Quest Card with a half-smile on his face, which was a bit creepy.

He really wanted to just leave.

Jiang Yuanchi, Qin Lele, Gu Xiaomeng were already in an awkward situation when they got together. The matter at the Demon God Monastery was still unresolved, and they didn't know what might happen next.

Now another Zhang Yingluo has emerged.

Although Zhang Xuejie has had fewer scenes recently, she is one of the people Xu Nan has confessed his feelings to, and she also helped Xu Nan get into the Thousand Rays Society.

The love triangle was already the most stable, but now, four people have come. If Xu Nan stays any longer, he will definitely follow in Cheng Ge's footsteps and face certain death.

But!

Everything in this world often goes wrong because of that "but".

Thirty points of Shame Points are one thing, Xu Nan gritted his teeth and let it go, but this specialty is [Silent Spell]!

A super powerful feat on par with Instant Spell.

Throughout history, countless spellcasters have been killed by enemies because their chanting of incantations was too loud.

Having mastered the Silent Spell, Xu Nan's combat prowess is poised to reach a new level.

He had no room to refuse!

Even though the air on the tarmac was filled with murderous intent, and even though the four women wore eerie smiles.

He stayed, and words began to pile up in his mind.

The most generous one seems to be Senior Yingluo.

Her brother, Zhang Jian, went to the backup base to hand over the mission to Yu Simiao and the others. She heard that Xu Nan and the others were fighting against the Cultists, so she ran over first.

Although Zhang Yingluo is a warmonger, she actually likes Xu Nan quite a bit.

It's been a while, and my junior seems to have gotten even more handsome.

But the paladin's will is very strong, and she will not be easily swayed by a little beauty.

She smiled and looked at Xu Nan: "Junior Xu Nan, with so many friends, aren't you going to introduce them?"

"Of course, Lele doesn't need it."

Qin Lele stuck out her tongue and remained silent.

Xu Nan pointed at Jiang Yuanchi, just as she was about to say something, Zhang Yingluo calmly said, "This one is not needed either."

Xu Nan was a little embarrassed. "You don't need this or that. Do you want to get to know Gu Xiaomeng?"

Jiang Yuanchi sneered, "Bitch."

Fine, she took out the counterfeit magic carpet and sat down gracefully.

She didn't forget to give a look to the Salted Fish Three Brothers were lying on the side watching.

The three brothers, recently blessed by electric shocks, gained considerable wisdom and immediately understood, shouting in an exaggerated tone:

Wow! My sister-in-law's magic carpet and my brother's are a matching couple's model!

What the hell is this couple's style?!

Xu Nan had a headache. It was clearly a matter of genuine products versus counterfeit products!

Zhang Yingluo looked at the two magic carpets with some surprise, and calmly took out a giant sword that was disproportionate to her size:

"Oh? A matching set for couples? Jiang Yuanchi, do you know that I was the one who recommended Xu Nan to join the Thousand Rays Society?"

Sizzle!

The Pea Shooter suddenly transformed into [Thunder Pea Shooter], and it looks like they're about to unleash their fury on Zhang Yingluo!

Jiang Yuanchi, unusually, wore glasses and revealed a serious expression:

"I heard that paladins have high resistance."

"You can give it a try."

The two women were on the verge of exchanging blows.

However, at this moment, a somewhat weak voice emerged:

"Mr. Xu Nan... I will not give up!"

"We are destined to be together, because this is blessed by God!"

Xu Nan rubbed her temples. "Wait, Gu Xiaomeng, what are you doing showing up at this time?"

Isn't the fire big enough?

The situation shouldn't get any worse than it is now, right?

No, it really is Sakura.

The next second, Qin Lele appeared out of nowhere and clung to Xu Nan, like a koala, revealing a shy expression:

"City Lord Xu, you can't shirk responsibility after taking advantage of your subordinates..."

On the tarmac, the air seemed to freeze instantly.

Xu Nan could no longer breathe.

Under the murderous gazes of the four girls, Xu Nan smiled as gently as possible:

"We're all friends, why target each other like this..."

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

Four fierce gazes focused on Xu Nan.

It seems like they're asking, "What exactly is your relationship?"

Xu Nan took a deep breath, and with a death wish, shouted out those words:

"Don't fight, don't snatch, you... are all my wings!"

Oh no, I'm going to die!

An eerie silence fell over the air. After about two minutes, Xu Nan looked up, somewhat puzzled.

The thunderstorm he had predicted did not come, and the four girls all looked bewildered and confused.

"What are wings?" Zhang Yingluo asked.

"Is Fish Tripe Junior so frightened that he's lost his mind and can't speak clearly?" Jiang Yuanchi with a worried expression.

"It seems to be a reference to anime, but I don't watch anime!" Qin Lele tilted her head.

Xu Nan was shocked. Everything was alright?

He was so embarrassed that he was ready to take the hit, but none of the four girls understood his "harem declaration".

Wouldn't that mean I've accomplished my mission without offending the Harem Group? Isn't that wonderful?

However, at this moment, a cold voice rang out:

"They are all your wings, but what about me?"

Xin'er stood gracefully outside the cockpit, dressed in camouflage, exuding a heroic aura.

Xu Nan rubbed her eyes. Was she seeing things? Xin'er actually went out? Wait, Xin'er should know this joke, right?

Before he could finish thinking, Xin'er turned around without a word and went into the cockpit. The stealth spaceship slowly started up and left!

"Hey!" Xu Nan suddenly realized something, but Xin'er had already gone far away.

The four girls were also a bit confused. The plot had completely deviated from their understanding. Who was that girl who suddenly appeared?

Could this be another product of Xu Nan's womanizing ways?

Only Qin Lele knew some of the inside story; her mouth hung open in astonishment. She whispered in Xu Nan's ear:

"So your sister is a brother-obsessed person! Oh well, since she's my sister, I can't compete with her no matter what. If she's the boss, I can still be the boss."

Xu Nan was astonished by the level of ideological awareness of the City Management Captain. At that moment, another sweet, delicate voice rang out:

"They are all your wings, but what about me?"

Xu Nan was furious and kicked him directly:

"Tom, get out of here!"

A deadly crisis was averted because the girls didn't interact much with otaku. Xu Nan escaped with her life and even gained the first-level Silent Spell feat!

He was all smiles on the way back.

With Zhang Yingluo's arrival, the official troops of the Thousand Rays Society also arrived at the backup base, and the long-suppressed students were finally liberated.

They returned to the real world in a private car, and the mess left behind would naturally be cleaned up by others.

After all, they were just Training Camp members, not official members. They could get some training, but it would be too much to ask them to actually fight Cultists in real combat.

It was during this process that Xu Nan learned that such a powerful profession as a swordsman had already emerged within the Thousand Rays Society!

Zhang Yingluo's brother, Zhang Jian, is one of the high-ranking members of the Thousand Rays Society in H City. He is a swordsman who wields a long sword to slay demons and monsters, and is known for his dashing and unrestrained style.

By the way, after Yu Simiao reported what happened after the Safe Zone was established, the Training Camp's evaluation results came out quickly.

Most people passed with passing grades, and they received P2 pay and positions.

Only a handful of people achieved higher scores and successfully earned the P3 salary and position.

Most people were notified to complete their onboarding process at a specific location within a month.

That's right, after going public, Thousand Rays Society operates under a corporate system.

The internal hierarchical structure is similar to that of a company, with P1 and P2 being the lowest-level newcomers, P3 being the team leader level, and so on.

For example, Wu Sanpao is p5, Zhang Jian is p7.

There are no P10 level big shots in Thousand Rays Society yet. Even the big shot in charge of H City only holds a P9 position within Thousand Rays Society.

When Xu Nan first heard about this hierarchical job classification, he was surprised. He knew that the P series corresponded to technical positions in enterprises. Could it be that Thousand Rays Society was treating its formal members as programmers or something?

I later learned that there are also management positions, like poor Zhang Yingluo, who currently holds a very high rank and title, but has very little power. It's probably something her brother deliberately set up to curb her crazy fighting spirit.

"The reason why the new ranking system is based on internal corporate systems is because many of the formal members are not from military backgrounds, while the original members of the military maintained their military status."

"If we forcibly incorporate you into the military, it might provoke a backlash, and it might not be effective. On the contrary, a corporate-like system is more likely to motivate everyone to be proactive."

Zhang Yingluo explained it this way.

Xu Nan was quite happy. The salary for the P3 position at Thousand Rays Society was not low. After officially joining the company, the salary would be 6,000 yuan per month plus five social insurances and one housing fund. The key point was that it was a four-day work week with three days off, which was much better than the average office worker!

Although the assets he inherited from Song Ying were enough for him to squander for a lifetime, the happiness of a lazy bum is so simple!

For the next few days, Xu Nan was busy with the end of the Training Camp.

There were no further developments regarding the Riverbend incident, and the Thousand Rays Society remained silent on the matter, presumably on orders from above.

Several insiders also spoke with Xu Nan, but Xu Nan insisted that the Saint's Remains were not in his possession and that the Thousand Rays Society would not interfere with anything else.

After all, the fact that they are operating as a company demonstrates Thousand Rays Society's determination.

It is important to note that Xu Nan is more like an employee of Thousand Rays Society than a soldier of a national institution.

To Xu Nan's surprise, the lifeboat piloted by Lü Junyi and the others was indeed invisible. Apart from a few people, such as the Salted Fish Three Brothers, who noticed it, the rest of them were blocked from seeing by Jiang Yuanchi's Pea Shooter army and did not actually discover the spaceship's coming and going!

They even thought the huge crash from the spaceship was some kind of terrifying magic cast by Xu Nan.

Xu Nan's reputation has improved again, which is something he did not expect.

Before we knew it, it was December 21st.

Today is the day Xu Nan completes her onboarding procedures.

Also today, Xu Nan received news from Lost Paradise, which had been silent for a long time.

[Monthly quest update... The Thirteenth Alchemy Heart quest has been completed!]

[This month's Bloodline Awakening event quest begins: Learn from the Lion King, be a good role model!]

[Task Description: What's the difference between someone who doesn't pretend to be Boy and a salted fish?

[Task deadline: January 21, 2020]

Upon seeing this task, Xu Nan couldn't help but feel somewhat melancholy:

"I don't think I'm very good at showing off!"

...!
