A Fearsome Reputation

Second-tier Water Sprite possess the ability to control water, greatly increasing their underwater combat power. They can hold their breath for extended periods and control a small number of aquatic creatures.

Chen Wang asked curiously, "What kind of work?"

Moli put her two long, white legs down, put on her slippers, and ran towards the table.

The fabric of her shorts was extremely soft; you could even see the lace pattern inside.

She rummaged through the table, found a document, glanced at it a few times, and then handed it to Chen Wang.

"This is the commission. The client is a businessman named Zhao Jin, who unfortunately went bankrupt and wants to hire a reliable elite to escort him to the Shelter in Sector B."

"However, as you know, second-tier potions are basically useless for Tier 3 Soldier, so this matter has been delayed."

"This person has a rather eccentric personality. He's picky about people and doesn't easily trust others. In short, it's a strange request."

Moli briefly introduced the information above. Chen Wang carefully looked through it and saw Zhao Jin's information and photo. However, it was relatively simple. From the photo, he was a slightly chubby middle-aged man with small eyes and a somewhat shrewd appearance.

Moli said, "You are Tier 3 Soldier, and the Water Sprite isn't a particularly rare Tier 2 potion. It's just that it's less common here, but more common in Shengda. If you want to go, they'll definitely be very happy."

"Of course, it's up to you to decide."

Chen Wang thought for a moment and then asked seriously, "Approximately how long will it take?"

Moli picked up the water glass in front of her and took a sip, leaving a lip print on it with her rosy lips. She drank a little too quickly, and some water dripped from her lips onto her chest. She quickly pulled out a tissue to wipe it off. "He said he has relatives over there. It will take about three hours to drive there from here. Just take him to the designated location."

People like Moli and Gao Yanan are middlemen. They deal in intelligence on weapons and chemicals, and they also handle commissions. Of course, those without credibility usually can't get the job done, and nobody will hire them.

After all, the world is so chaotic. If the middleman steals from you, wouldn't you be risking your life?

Chen Wang had always been curious that Moli, such a charming and refined woman, could do this.

After looking at the materials, Chen Wang thought for a moment and said, "Okay, contact him, I'll take the job."

Moli giggled and said, "Okay, I'll inform him right away and have him confirm the meeting time with you."

Chen Wang nodded.

Moli's office was designed in a rather modern style, with a wide leather sofa, a bright coffee table, a clean floor, and a tall female secretary wearing Black Silk Stockings.

Moli usually appears somewhat alluring and seductive, but at this moment in the office, she exudes a cold and aloof aura.

She wore a white shirt and cargo pants, looking extremely capable, a stark contrast to her usual glamorous appearance. Chen Wang glanced at her indifferently before looking away.

"Does she only dress like that at bars?"

Chen Wang had no interest in exploring Moli's private life; the thought quickly passed through his mind.

He looked at the middle-aged businessman across from him named Zhao Jin.

Those who can do business in Lingdong all have some connections; business failure also means a breakdown in those connections.

Most of them involve life and death.

There must be some story behind how this person survived after his business went bankrupt.

Moli told Zhao Jin about Chen Wang's information. Zhao Jin was a little surprised. He was no longer in the upper echelons of the Qiongqi Mining Shelter, but he could still get some information through his ears. The cooperation was quickly negotiated and successful.

The second-tier water spirit Water Sprite requires a deposit of 30,000, with an additional 50,000 to be paid upon completion.

This is already an extremely expensive commission in Lingdong.

Chen Wang didn't delve into why this person still had so much money after going bankrupt.

Why is the Water Sprite Potion more popular on Shengda's platform?

He said calmly:

When do we depart?

The middle-aged businessman, Zhao Jin, said, "I hope it's as soon as possible."

Chen Wang suddenly said, "I don't have a car."

The businessman named Zhao Jin was taken aback, then shook his head. "It's alright, I have one. I'll give you the car when we get there, and we can be friends."

This man was extremely straightforward. After their conversation, he took out a vial of medicine from his briefcase. The medicine was light blue.

He handed it over.

"Mr. Chen, this is Second Order Genetic Potion for Water Sprite. Please accept it."

Chen Wang raised an eyebrow. According to the agreement, the money should only be delivered after the task was completed, but Chen Wang still took it. "Aren't you afraid that I'll take the money and not do the job, or that I won't be able to do this for you?"

Zhao Jin shook his head, then took out another 30,000 yuan deposit from his bag and handed it to Chen Wang.

"Mr. Chen has a great reputation, and I never expected that I could invite him to do this."

After a pause, Zhao Jin continued, "If Mr. Chen cannot deliver me safely, then it is my fate to suffer this calamity."

Zhao Jin's words were indeed very sincere.

Chen Wang gave him a deep look and nodded slightly.

"Now that I've received the money, I will act in accordance with the agreement, but I have a question."

Zhao Jin respectfully said, "Mr. Chen, please speak."

Moli described Zhao Jin as having an eccentric personality and a difficult temperament, yet he was extremely polite to Chen Wang, which was undoubtedly related to Chen Wang's reputation.

He had killed too many people and had a notorious reputation.

Chen Wang said calmly, "I want to know what kind of enemies I'll encounter if I escort you. I've already accepted the job, and if you explain it clearly, it will increase your chances of survival."

Zhao Jin was taken aback, then said, "Mr. Chen is a straightforward person, but I don't know who he is. When I was doing business, I naturally had some friends and some enemies. But now that I'm down on my luck, I can't find my friends, and my enemies will probably come looking for me. That's why I'm looking for someone like Mr. Chen to help me."

Chen Wang's eyebrows were sharp as knives. He glanced lightly at Zhao Jin's face and then nodded.

"Shall we set off this afternoon?"

Zhao Jin clearly wanted to leave the Shelter.

"Okay, let's meet here this afternoon."

Chen Wang left with the medicine. Zhao Jin had some final payment to make to Moli. He politely said to Moli, "Thank you, Miss Moli."

Moli remained noncommittal. "I'm just doing a job for money, there's no need for thanks."

Zhao Jin still expressed his gratitude.

Moli smiled and suddenly said, "You trust him so much? That's not like you, a cautious person."

Zhao Jin remained calm and said indifferently, "Since Mr. Chen has come to me, he must have taken a liking to this medicine. If I don't hand it over, it will be a disaster; if I do, it will leave a good impression on Mr. Chen."

Moli was taken aback, then burst into laughter, her body trembling with ecstasy.

"Boss Zhao, how could someone as shrewd as you go bankrupt? This Dao Zhen hard to navigate!"
