"Who can die?" Before Tang Shidao could ask again, an uninvited guest suddenly came to the park. A man with a gun said, "I have a new mission to kill someone. Both men and women can do it. Whose mission is done? Let's work together. I'll give you a tenth of the money. Who, who's free? Who can die? "
The man raised his gun and asked around. Everyone shook their heads. They were not afraid.
Tang Shidao understood.
Everyone knew that the mission would reset at midnight. All injuries and death did not matter, so they were not afraid at all.
"I'll pay 150 copper coins. How about it? Who's free? You must be free in this park. Who, who's willing to work with me? 200, how about it? It'll be quick if you get shot. I'll take the lead. I promise it won't be too painful. 200 is already a high price. Who's willing? "The man was slightly impatient and began to shout.
But still, no one paid attention to him.
"F * ck! You guys … Forget it. I'll go to the coast and ask. "The man was a little anxious, but he did not dare to force it.
He also knew very well that if he forced it, he would suffer a loss.
After the man left.
Tang Shidao also asked, "Is 200 copper coins a high price?"
Jackie nodded lightly and replied, "Yes, 200 for a mission is already very high. But death missions are very troublesome. This kind of cooperation will also affect your daily life in the future. Once or twice is definitely not a problem. If you need this kind of death cooperation every day, you won't dare to accept other missions by accident. Moreover, new missions are troublesome. The more mature the cooperation, the more secure it is. "
"What if I don't earn money for a day?"
"Your youth and lifespan will be reduced by a day. You can buy it back with money or ignore it. But if you 'lose' too many times, you'll slowly grow old and even die. And there's another disadvantage to growing old. Your ability to work will weaken. Here, people want to finish their missions early and party at night. If you're too old and slow, there will be fewer people willing to work with you. "Jackie replied.
"Is there a time limit for completing the mission?"
"Very rarely is there a time limit. This kind of mission has a lot of rewards. Most of them are free missions. You can complete them whenever you want. If you're working with someone, the sooner you complete them, the better. Once your partner is unexpectedly killed or shot to death, your mission will be over. If you can't complete it, you'll lose the mission money. "Jackie explained very carefully..
As Tang Shidao listened, he thought of the beggar, the police, the ambulance, and other people.
They all looked anxious and had prepared their work in advance. So, this was the reason.
Think again.
....... officials....
"Jie Ji, are those who look rich really rich?" Tang Shidao asked again.
"Yes, and no." Jie Ji smiled and explained, "Here, we have two different concepts. One was the amount of money he had saved up, and the other was his mission status. For example, if I'm an orphan in an orphanage and I want to change my identity to a rich family's daughter, I would have to pay at least 100 million for this identity. .......................................
...................
................ ............. ............
. What do you mean? "Tang Shidao was puzzled.
"Only on the same day. No matter what your identity is, you'll always be on the same day. If you don't do missions and make money, you'll grow old and die. The city lord doesn't control the money, and the king can't use the money from the national treasury. Here, only the mission money is the storage money. Everything else is useless. The king is old. He can't use the national treasury's arcanite to buy his youth and lifespan, "Jackie explained.
"So, you have to do missions to buy the king's identity. Otherwise, you won't have money?"
"Yes."
"Then, can the king order the soldiers to do missions for him?"
"Hehe, who will listen to him?"
"Oh …"
"Only one day, understand? Everything will be reset at midnight. Who will listen to the king? Who will be afraid of the king? That identity is just some convenience. For example, some people's mission is to 'make breakfast for the king.' Then, the king can eat good food. Another example is to 'pilot the king's plane.' The king can look for some special missions that require a plane. "
"Look for?"
"Yes, some missions are agreed upon between people. It's a one-time cooperation or a long-term cooperation. Some are found by reading books, some are found by shopping, and some are found after killing people or destroying things. For example, missions like going around the city are usually found by people who like to run around. Similarly, if you don't have good transportation, it's hard to succeed in this kind of mission. It's best not to accept it. With a car and a plane, it's easy. "
"Is there a punishment for failing a mission?"
"Yes, a little. Except for special missions, generally, one tenth of the mission reward will be deducted. For example, going around the city is 300. If you fail, 30 copper coins will be deducted. Without money, you'll become negative. If you fail again, you'll become negative again. Negative savings won't affect you, but you'll fill it with the money you earn. If you don't fill it, it'll keep filling it. Negative savings can't buy things, so you'll grow old and die. "
"It seems that missions that are too valuable aren't necessarily a good thing."
"Yes, it depends on your control."
"You mentioned arcanite just now." Tang Shidao asked again.
"Yes."
"You know magic?"
"Of course. I know magic, I know spells, and I also know that there are other planets outside this planet. It's rumored that some people of the Saint Realm can step into space. I don't know anything beyond that. It's said that there are people above the Saint Realm, but we can't find out. In fact, we don't know what the Saint Realm is like. "
"Then, you know that you're …"
"Yes, we know that it must be magic. Humans can't be resurrected instantly, and cities can't be reset instantly. It must be the effect of spells. But this isn't important. Whether we can live smoothly or not depends on whether we work or not. Missions are like work. If we don't do missions, we'll grow old and die. If we work hard, we'll get better and better. "
"Can we buy spells?" Tang Shidao suddenly thought of something.
"Yes, but …" Jackie explained.
In fact.
Spells could be bought. But magic couldn't be bought. There were meditation techniques for sale here, and they were also divided into nine different levels. This required you to practice on your own. According to Jackie, practicing magic took a lot of time. Unless you had a lot of savings, it was difficult to practice with half a day of missions and half a day of revelry. As soon as it started, the time was reset. People who liked to fight more often chose magic artifacts, some of which contained magic power.
"Is there a battle here?"
"Of course." Jackie smiled and said, "There definitely isn't in the city, because everyone needs to do missions. Outside the city, in some special areas, there are agreements between soldiers. For example, participating in a 'war' mission is often accompanied by the additional condition of 'the more enemies killed, the more the reward.' Because it will reset, it doesn't matter if you die in battle. In addition to the technological battlefield, there are also hunting magic beasts. "
"Is there a risk?"
"The reward is the highest, and the risk is also the highest. Magic beasts are not human mission enforcers. They won't start fighting with you at a fixed time. For example, enter a cave and kill a magic wolf. You're alone or five people, and it starts as soon as you enter. No one knows where you'll meet. "
"Wait. If it's the same every day, we can make stronger magic artifacts to increase the success rate, right? "
"Heh, this idea is interesting. But there's a problem with money. "
"Reason?"
"Let me give you an example. Mission, go around the city. The mission will give you two things, a map and shoes. But it will definitely not give you a car or a plane. Another example, mission, kill a random person. The mission will give you a pistol, but not a submachine gun or a rocket launcher. War missions will give you a full set of equipment, but not tanks and fighter jets. "
"Need to buy it myself?"
"Yes."
"Then save some money and buy a tank to sweep through, right? If it's blown up, will it reset at midnight? "
"Yes. But there's a number of uses. For example, you buy a Magic Flame Explosive Bottle to deal with a magic wolf. Throw it to kill a magic wolf, use it, reset at midnight, and your Magic Flame Explosive Bottle will come back. But if the number of uses is ten, it will reset to nine. Ten uses, whether you can make money or not depends on your calculation. "
"Usually it doesn't make money?"
"Well, usually it's a loss. It must be a weaker poison bottle, or something else. Anyway, it's not so easy to make money. In theory, buying a small dragon to fight a magic wolf is a sure win, but you'll lose more than ten times. In addition, the map and shoes for going around the city can be used infinitely. Only if you give up this mission will the map and shoes disappear. "
"Are there any missions that rely on my ability to increase the speed of making money?"
"Of course there are. For example, the group of painting masters just now, they can make more money based on the quantity and quality of their paintings. For example, the mission 'Paint and sell paintings.' For this mission, the more paintings sold, the more valuable they would be. Similarly, the higher the quality of the paintings, the more valuable they are. The more you sell, the better the painting, the more the reward. In any place, it's easier for people with ability to make money. Fishing by the sea also has different rewards for catching one fish and ten fish. "
"The money won't be too much, right?"
"Well, it won't be too much, but it's a little more than normal missions. In short, the harder you work, the more capable you are, and the more money you can make. This district was just the lowest standard. There were more outstanding districts and even more outstanding cities. You're a wanderer, you can go outside and take a look. But please be careful, I heard that wanderers have two choices when they die. One is to be forced to become a resident, and the other is to leave. So, you have to be careful. "
"Thank you."
"You're welcome. In fact, the people here aren't really bad, it's just that this environment allows them to party recklessly. Some districts and some cities are very peaceful, even at night there are no explosions or gunshots. "Jackie also put in a good word for the people here, saying that the environment made people indulge.
"Aren't you afraid?"
"No. If you don't want to, basically no one will force you, unless you're crazy or drunk and can't control yourself. The people here don't want to offend others, because it's very serious if the mission is hindered. At night, if you don't go to the party, no one will pull you over. "
"I see. Another question, are there really no children here? "
"Newborns?"
"Yes."
"There are, but it's very troublesome. Newborns need the consent of a man and a woman, and then with the help of magic, the woman becomes pregnant and grows within a day, and finally gives birth. It can only finish nearly a year's work in a day, so it must be assisted by magic. After all, you have to have money, without money, there are no newborns. "Jackie didn't understand this, so she could only explain it briefly.
Tang Shidao continued to ask, and Jackie answered while playing the violin.
Until night time.
The two were still asking and answering simple questions. Late at night, the people began to party, and the park was not affected. It wasn't until midnight that Jackie disappeared in an instant.
After this conversation.
Tang Shidao understood a lot of things, and vaguely tasted a bit of the "Mage's Web."
At noon the next day.
"Good afternoon, Mr. Tang Shidao."
"Hello, Jackie."
"Do you have any more questions?" In theory, everything was reset, and Jackie was meeting for the first time.
However, this couldn't be called a reset, but a restart, so both of them remembered the previous conversation. Tang Shidao was now only curious, what did the master of this plane want to do? Was this an experiment of life, or a test of ability?
"Jackie, do you think you're lucky or sad?"
"Oh … I'm very lucky."
"Why?"
"Because I'm just a mortal, and I know that mortals have 'birth, old age, sickness, and death,' but I don't. So, I'm very lucky. "
"Have you ever thought that you can change yourself and enter a higher level? But the current environment makes it difficult for you to ascend? "Tang Shidao asked again.
"That's greed."
"Oh."
"Mr. Tang Shidao, maybe you're at a higher level. But, I'm just a mortal. I work hard to do tasks, and I can live forever. What's there to be dissatisfied with? In addition, if I want to cultivate, I can work harder, buy spells, and buy meditation techniques. I think that it's right not to get things out of thin air. Everything needs to be fought for. We have such conditions, at least, we know that we can work hard to reach the Saint Realm. When we reach it, I believe that we can work hard to achieve it. "
"It's wrong to do nothing and want to gain something, isn't it?"
"Yes, it's greedy to want to reap without sowing. No matter who created all this, he gave us the opportunity to survive, work hard, and gain. This is our greatest fortune. "
