"What ancient text are you talking about? Once you've decided, sign the contract for me immediately!"
The director didn't notice Wu Ming's intoxicated emotions for a long time. He slapped the latter's hand with a stack of paper: "This is the labor contract in duplicate. If you think it's okay after reading it, you'll be numb." He quickly signed it!"
Wu Ming said "Oh" and started to flip through the labor contract in his hand, but after reading two pages, his expression gradually became weird.
It's not because the contract is filled with weird requirements or blasphemous words, but...it's because the content of the contract in hand is too normal!
Among the unusual events that Wu Ming experienced today, the content of the labor contract in his hand has even become the most normal thing!
Except for some difficult-to-understand vocabulary like professional terms in the contract, the content inside is beyond Wu Ming's expectation: the work content is mainly to assess the danger level of [anomalies] on the earth and follow-up processing, 'recycling' management and affairs The [Anomaly] who signed the asylum agreement is just helping the office deal with some minor troubles on Earth that are inconvenient for them to intervene.
The contract also clearly states the miscellaneous benefits he can enjoy during the probation period and the labor security the firm will provide him - including but not limited to God-style full-body rehabilitation, all-round and no dead ends. It can give you body-strengthening spells that can strengthen your nails to +10, the right to borrow books from the forbidden library for free, the right to jump between worlds, resurrection after death, and more than a dozen kinds of labor security and welfare benefits.
Oh, there is also a year-end bonus during the Chinese New Year.
Wu Ming, who once thought that he would even work for this mysterious organization for free as written in various stories, looked at the director with some surprise, who was picking his teeth with a toothpick.
Feeling Wu Ming's gaze, the director stared back with an unkind expression: "What are you looking at?"
Wu Ming honestly expressed his feelings, but received a disdainful look from the director: "What are you thinking about? Even employees of secret societies have to support their families, otherwise there would be no surgeons or forensic doctors. Necromancer. Besides, in your future work, whether you are exposed to or deal with [abnormalities], you will need a certain degree of self-protection ability. If I don’t get your labor insurance in place, I will have to find another unlucky guy to take care of you. Bag."
Wu Ming: "..."
There was naturally no problem with the contract, at least Wu Ming didn't see any problems. The benefits were all available and the work content was clear and specific, so he signed it without much hesitation.
The director took the signed contract, then picked up the pen and put it to his chin as if he was thinking about signing. Wu Ming originally thought she could take this opportunity to get a glimpse of the director's real name, but she didn't expect that she suddenly shouted loudly, then bit her thumb and pressed it on the two contracts where Party A's signature was supposed to be. twice.
Wu Ming was immediately shocked: when the director bit his thumb, he thought the latter was going to summon some strange summoning object using psychic skills! No matter how much you don’t want to reveal your real name, it’s not like this!
"The one looks like Li. (This is yours)" The director sucked his fingers and threw one of the contracts to Wu Ming, watching the latter catch the contract hurriedly: "From now on, you are our lucky ancient god. I am an employee of the firm on probation. Come, let me show you the door first. Although the firm has a special channel in the material world, the firm actually breaks the shackles of time, space and dimensions, and is located between dreams and reality, spirit and The place between the material slits was originally a room that only guests who had signed a contract in some form could visit..."
The director's serious words almost deceived Wu Ming - if the latter hadn't been a nerd himself and a late-stage fan of gags: "But director, your words are not a female*story" Is it the trick of an old man with a long nose?"
"If you don't speak, no one will treat you as a mute! Let's go!"
With the director as the center, the starry and colorful galaxy in the universe began to produce large-scale information fluctuations that could not be observed by Wu Ming. The originally eternal space structure was constantly changing and corrected under the secret operations of the director. , multiple instructions were entered one after another to wake up the program in standby mode, and this narrow space between matter and spirit, reality and dream began to rapidly change in a way that Wu Ming could understand and clearly recognize, and with the rapid development of the universe and the galaxy, The fading unfolded before him.
Although the changes in space are very complicated to say, they last for a very short time. For Wu Ming, who does not have extraordinary perspective, he only felt that the complex changes in the space structure were over after a period of trance, and waiting for him When he came back to his senses, he found that he and the director were already in front of a dilapidated European-style castle.
The castle in front of us has obviously experienced a tragic war. Looking at it, there are basically no parts of the castle that can be well preserved. Most of the outer walls of the castle that are used to defend against foreign enemies have been destroyed by the war. For the sake of ruins, those city walls that are still standing tenaciously are now in ruins, and the walls are full of large and small gaps caused by various siege weapons. The castle gate standing in front of Wu Ming looked more like it had been blasted by some high-energy weapon. Most of the gate had disappeared, leaving only a small half of the gate base covered with crystalline material at the top. , Wu Ming felt that this might be a crystal formed after the rock was melted by ultra-high temperature and then cooled.
The only remaining remains of the once towering watchtowers built against the city wall were the remains of half-towers one after another on the city wall, mixed with the collapsed city walls and turned into rubble ruins whose original appearance could not be seen. What was even more shocking was that Wu Ming saw from a distance a huge ax that reached deep into the sky and the earth, deeply embedded in the center of the castle. Not only did it accurately split the Byzantine-style vaulted fortress in half from the center, A bottomless ravine was also carved out, running through the castle and extending to the end of the horizon of the wasteland!
Dazzling electric lights flashed from time to time in the gloomy and oppressive gray clouds. While bringing short-term light to this lifeless wasteland, they also distorted the shadows of the sparse dead trees on the wasteland into hideous and weird shapes. The scary ghost shadows are projected on the crumbling castle, making the atmosphere of the castle look like a hundred ghosts walking at night and a group of demons dancing wildly.
The atmosphere is exactly the same as those castles in those suspenseful, thriller, and horror movies where supernatural murders occur!
"Come on, let's go in."
I don't know if it was because this tragic scene was so touching, but the director's voice seemed to have become a little gloomy.
"Is this the location of the Lucky Ancient God Office?" Wu Ming looked at this dilapidated and desolate scene, and looked at the giant ax embedded in the ground from a distance. He had already begun to imagine that the members of the Lucky Ancient God Office were trying to protect him. The epic scene of the battle between the world and the giant holding a giant ax trying to destroy the world suddenly appeared in my heart, and I couldn't help but feel a little reverence in my heart: "Here... you must have experienced an earth-shattering epic battle not long ago, right?"
The director has said before that their business scope also includes saving the world. Originally, Wu Ming thought it was no big deal to put saving the world and helping others get good grades in school on the same level, but now after seeing such a scenery, he began to change his mind.
——Now that I have become one of them, will I have to shoulder such an important responsibility one day?
"You're thinking too much. This is the new desktop I just changed..."
Wu Ming's eyebrows twitched and he suddenly thought of the starry sky just now: "The starry sky in the universe just now..."
The director's face was filled with a proud smile: "That's a screen saver I made on location. Is it creative?"
--I knew it! I knew I must be overthinking it again! ! !
"Today is your first day at work. I'll show you the way."
Passing through the dilapidated city gate and the ruins outside the city, the two walked straight to the vaulted castle that was split in half by a giant axe. The director pointed to the giant ax embedded in the ground in the atrium and said: "The giant ax will split the atrium." It is divided into two parts, the left and right parts. The corridor on the left side of the atrium leads to the infinite corridor. As the name suggests, it is a corridor with infinite rooms. The shape of the room will be automatically adjusted according to the characteristics of the user. It is usually used for centralized storage and management. Abnormalities], in your words, live in a collective apartment. If there are [abnormalities] to be contained and managed in the future, they will be sent here according to the number after data registration. On the right is a multi-functional support composed of several functional areas. Module, but you can’t use it for the time being..."
The director took Wu Ming around the castle, briefly explained several areas that Wu Ming needed to know, and then led him to his office.
Then Wu Ming saw Elizabeth sitting at the desk and eating a bowl of fried rice, a doll girl sitting next to her as if she was facing a formidable enemy, watching her every move, and... a girl suspended in the air. The structure of the blue translucent crystal in mid-air changes back and forth between regular hexahedron, regular octahedron, and dodecahedron. Ah, it has now become a regular tetrahedron.
"Wow! Don't you look like the good person who helped me before?" Elizabeth, who had been here for a long time, was stunned when she saw an acquaintance. Then she was so excited that she didn't even have time to swallow her food before she shouted: "You are finally here. La! I’ve been waiting for you for a long time! I’ve been hungry!”
The doll girl was also a little surprised to see Wu Ming here. According to her data analysis, the latter was just an ordinary person who was involved in this accident (in fact, her analysis was correct). Now this is unreasonable. The situation made her feel doubly puzzled. Although the puppet girl's emotions were not as superficial as Elizabeth's, those inorganic eyes without focus were always watching Wu Ming quietly.
The tetrahedron crystal suspended in mid-air shook up and down, as if saluting the director, and then began to report the situation: "Director, according to your arrangement, a simple vital sign test has been carried out for the two ladies. The indicators were all at normal values and there was no information assimilation or distortion. At the same time, he patiently answered the two ladies’ questions. They already had the most basic understanding of the current situation and the Lucky Ancient God Agency... However, Miss Elizabeth has been She was hungry, so I gave her lunch without permission."
"Well, I understand." The director nodded, walked to the desk and leaned on his chair without any image, and crossed his legs on the table: "Wu Ming, you can sit down wherever you want. Let’s talk business.”
"About the placement of these two little girls..."
Somehow, after hearing the director's words, Wu Ming, who had just found a chair to sit down, suddenly had a premonition that something serious was about to happen.
