CHAPTER 301: CHAPTER 230 SUCCESSFULLY COMPLETING THE MISSION_3

The Demon General chuckled and said, "Even I am barely level 99, and wouldn’t be able to deal with the tomb raiders NPCs on the surface. Moreover, when in NPC status, they are essentially immortal; even if they die, they’d probably resurrect instantly. Endless numbers would mean only disaster for us."

Upon hearing the Demon General’s words, the Ghost Soldiers understood and replied gravely, "Are we to let the tomb raiders continue disrupting our excavation of the relic?"

"That’s why we must hurry back and excavate that magic sword from the relic." said the Demon General.

"But that’s a 500-meter-long magic sword, we’ve only uncovered 400 meters, there’s still 100 meters to go." said a Ghost Soldier.

"Hahaha, then what are you standing around for? Hurry back to the excavation, or else I won’t pay your salary this month!"

The Demon General led the Ghost Soldiers back, his echoing voice carried on the road: "Haha, ah! Once I successfully unearth the 500-meter-long magic sword, it’ll be unmatched in the world, surely unleashing a storm of bloodshed! Not just on the surface world of the Demon Realm, but the human realm too—I fear nothing! The Divine Realm? Can it withstand my 500-meter-long magic sword?!"

Just as Rosen successfully left the Underground Palace Tomb, he felt a sense of relief, narrowly escaping capture.

He immediately told the tomb raider leader the demon’s secret.

"Actually, the moment you completed the mission, I already knew this secret. It seems the Underground Palace demon is just a rumor. Let’s dispatch a large number of skilled tomb raiders and advance to excavate the relic in the Underground Palace!" the tomb raider leader said excitedly.

Rosen then requested leave, saying, "Boss, give me some time off, will you? Look, I’ve completed a large project, achieved this month’s KPI, so can you give me a holiday?"

"Alright, alright, no problem, I’ll not only give you time off but also a pay raise. I’ll add five cents to your salary, and this way you’ll get an extra five cents effect each month." the boss said generously.

"That’s great!" Rosen was overjoyed.

Having an extra five cents effect is equivalent to having an additional life-saving tool at a critical moment.

Just like the previous quick escape effect, if Rosen hadn’t used it at the time, he surely wouldn’t have been able to escape the Ghost Soldiers’ pursuit.

And considering Rosen’s current salary is only one dollar, he could only use two five-cent effects each month. With the extra five cents, it’s equal to having three five-cent effects a month.

He immediately began considering the five-cent effect slots for the next month.

But he doesn’t necessarily have to use five-cent effects; sometimes one-cent effects are also good, depending on the specific use.

Besides, Rosen had bought many cultivation technique books from beggars, most of which were priced at one or two cents, corresponding to one-cent and two-cent effects. Rosen’s largest collection is of this low-cost type, and there are very few effects truly worth five cents—not many that he can use.

"Right, I shouldn’t be focusing on the effects now, but discussing with Power King and others about the descent of the new chosen one."

Rosen remembered that during his time in the Underground Palace, he observed the night sky and found the Ziwei Star glowing dimly, calculated that disaster was coming, and that the chosen one was about to be born.

So he went to find Power King and the others to talk about this matter.

Power King, however, told Rosen something shocking—Meng Die has given birth!
