Chapter 263: Forced to be in the limelight

If it weren't for Ning Xiaohui, the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit would have really slipped away directly.

After hesitating for a while, the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit finally told the truth: "Young Master, every time an artillery strike is activated, the Molten Xian Gong consumes a large amount of Five Elements magic power."

"If the minimum standard of combat results is not met, then the Molten Xian Gong side will consider this artillery strike a loss greater than the gain, and there is the responsibility of the person who fired the cannon, so contributions will be deducted."

"In fact, in the medical hall, if you repair some important mechanisms and the final result is worse than before, contributions will also be deducted."

"Similarly, on the Pointing Platform, if your decision is wrong, contributions will also be deducted during post-battle statistics."

Unlike Ning Zhuo nodded, feeling in his heart that such a regulation was quite reasonable. It could effectively prevent some low-ability people from occupying high positions.

He had another new question and continued to ask: "If all contributions are deducted, what will happen?"

"I mean, my current contribution is a negative number; does this have an impact on my position?"

This was a key question.

After the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit heard this, it couldn't help but sigh in its heart; this little monster Unlike Ning Zhuo could always keenly discover the key.

It had to answer again: "If the negative number continues for a period of time, it will cause the cultivator's position grade to drop."

"Young Master, your previous contribution was negative, and the reason it didn't affect your position was because you didn't have any position at all before."

"But now, you already have three second-grade positions; when the time limit arrives, if your contribution is still negative, the grades of these positions will all drop significantly."

Unlike Ning Zhuo frowned immediately: "Then, when exactly is the time limit for my position to drop?"

This was a big trouble for him.

Just because he had just signed a contract with Zhu Xuanji, he himself couldn't soul-enter the Xian Gong.

That is to say, when his position grade dropped, he couldn't obtain second-grade positions again by clearing levels.

So before this, Unlike Ning Zhuo must brush his contribution deficit back as soon as possible.

The Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit thought for a while, feeling it was better to tell the truth, and told Unlike Ning Zhuo the precise date.

This date was quite long; Unlike Ning Zhuo calculated and found that there was at least half a month left.

"No, that's not right!" A flash of essence passed through Unlike Ning Zhuo's eyes.

Unlike Ning Zhuo was silent for a moment, weighing his words and asking: "Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit, will I have a share of the contribution contributions of the people under my second-grade position?"

"For example, I am the Medical Hall Master, others work in the medical hall, their positions are under mine, I lead them to complete some tasks; isn't there a split in contributions?"

The Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit shook all over!

It turned around the throne in disappointment, looking up at the hall ceiling, muttering continuously: "Unlike Ning Zhuo discovered it, he discovered it, in the end, he still discovered this point!"

The Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit sighed, its expression desolate, and with a trace of nervousness.

"Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit, Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit..." Unlike Ning Zhuo called out continuously, but couldn't get a response.

He frowned slightly, a look of thought flashing in his eyes.

For discovering this point, Unlike Ning Zhuo had to thank Ning Xiaohui.

Ning Xiaohui repaired the Golden Blood War Ape Dasheng several times in the medical hall, which made Unlike Ning Zhuo keenly discover that the amount of his own contributions had changed.

Although the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit didn't respond to him and didn't give him a clear answer, Unlike Ning Zhuo was almost certain that this was the answer!

"In this way, my task next is actually to help others obtain more positions."

"And these positions must be related to the medical hall, the Pointing Platform, and the artillery tower."

Unlike Ning Zhuo calculated slightly.

If he took action himself to complete various tasks, he could indeed gain a lot, but doing so was risky, and sometimes the tasks wouldn't meet the standards, and contributions would be deducted.

However, if there were many people under his position, and he specifically ate the splits of these contributions, as long as the quantity was large enough, the speed of accumulation would also be very considerable, and might even far exceed his personal efforts.

And the point that attracted him the most was that he enjoyed these contribution splits without any risk, and there would be no situation of contribution deduction.

"Zhu Xuanji and others are the most threatening competitors for me."

"But they are all outsiders and cannot receive such positions."

"So, I just need to cultivate these renovation team people well, and at the same time pay attention to the contributions of outstanding individuals among them, so that they don't exceed my contributions, that's all!"

When Unlike Ning Zhuo returned to his residence, he heard the Ning family renovation team members discussing matters related to receiving tasks.

He summoned them, briefly informed them about the contract to be signed later.

Then he dismissed them, entered the house alone, and began his fixed daily breathing practice.

Because he was still carrying monitoring means planted by several Golden Core cultivators, he had to perform this segment every day to be reasonable.

The next day.

Unlike Ning Zhuo opened his eyes, and after washing up, he left his residence alone.

He arrived at the edge of the Molten Xian Gong.

Here, battles occurred from time to time.

Some Red Flame monsters broke through the light shield, rushed in, and were quickly killed by mechanical creations.

Often after these battles, many brand-new tasks would be generated.

Unlike Ning Zhuo stayed at the rear of the battlefield.

After the battle ended, some mechanical puppets retreated to the rear, limping.

Unlike Ning Zhuo took the initiative to come to the side of these mechanical puppets with missing arms and legs, holding the contribution token, and checking the content of the new tasks.

Then, he accurately picked out the task target, reached out and pulled, dragging the target mechanical puppet directly out of the retreating team, and repaired it on the spot.

He dismantled these mechanical puppets as much as possible and checked their internal structures.

Very quickly, he made a discovery: the mechanical parts used in these mechanical puppets were all very familiar to him.

"These structures and parts almost all appeared in the trial levels."

If it were someone else, they might only have an understanding of the mechanical parts involved in the Daoist route.

But Unlike Ning Zhuo had already cleared three paths, and many rewards for the levels were received multiple times, so he was quite familiar with these.

However, on the surface, he still had to put on a research posture first.

Unlike Ning Zhuo's solo action in the early morning attracted the attention of Zhu Xuanji and others.

When he returned, he was criticized by the Ning family ancestor via voice transmission.

Cultivators who entered the Xian Gong, besides facing the threat of life when fighting monsters, other cultivators were also potential threats.

At this very moment, in the Molten Xian Gong, there were still a large number of loose cultivators.

Ning Jiufan didn't want to see Unlike Ning Zhuo get hurt or even die because of acting alone.

This was no small loss for the current situation and for the Ning family.

Although Unlike Ning Zhuo was currently only a Qi Condensation cultivator.

Unlike Ning Zhuo accepted the criticism, and starting that afternoon, he set off with the main force.

In order to be able to exert the power of the Molten Xian Gong, and considering that every position they mastered meant one more point of control over the Molten Xian Gong, the Golden Core cultivators were all very attentive.

Therefore, near every renovation team, there were Golden Core level cultivators taking care of them.

Zhu Xuanji and others were very cautious; from their perspective: the culprit who controlled the Five Elements Artillery Tower and bombarded Fire Persimmon Mountain had been hiding in the dark and hadn't been exposed.

Since this culprit could manipulate the Five Elements Artillery Tower, it was clear that he was a pioneer on the route of entering the Xian Gong.

The progress of the renovation team members greatly threatened this culprit.

He was very likely to launch a sneak attack to nip the threat in the bud!

Renovation team members generally only had Qi Condensation cultivation, and their combat power was worrying, needing Golden Core cultivators to look after them.

Such an arrangement made Unlike Ning Zhuo feel quite inconvenient.

He could only suppress his gradually irritable mood and slightly speed up the progress of his performance.

"Oh..."

"So, so strong!"

"I didn't expect Unlike Ning Zhuo's mechanical attainments to have improved again. Amazing!"

Everyone was amazed by Unlike Ning Zhuo and praised him repeatedly.

Unlike Ning Zhuo's groping, rapid cognition, and mastery speed of "unfamiliar" mechanisms were all impressive.

It was clear that he was on a completely different level from everyone else.

Unlike Ning Zhuo wanted to hide his clumsiness, but forced by the situation, he could only be in the limelight.

"I need to accumulate contributions to the level of being able to enter the medical hall as soon as possible."

"In this way, I can stay in the medical hall all day, performing a large number of mechanical puppet repairs every day, giving the outside world a perfect explanation."

As the Medical Hall Master, Unlike Ning Zhuo naturally knew what the minimum standard for the medical hall's position was.

The mechanical technology Unlike Ning Zhuo displayed was seen by many Golden Core ancestors.

Among the many renovation team members, Unlike Ning Zhuo was not just standing out; he was simply leading the way, unique and peerless!

Even a figure like Zhu Xuanji, with a broad vision and having seen many genius cultivators, couldn't help but feel a shock in his heart when seeing Unlike Ning Zhuo's performance at this time.

"This junior Unlike Ning Zhuo is indeed quite talented in mechanical arts!"

There was a very obvious comparison in Zhu Xuanji's heart, and that was Ning Xiaohui.

Ning Xiaohui mastered the talent of Ice Fat Jade Hands, and her treatment and repair of mechanical puppets were unreasonable, simply shameless.

But even so, Ning Xiaohui's speed of accumulating contributions was much slower than Unlike Ning Zhuo's.

Zhu Xuanji's heart moved slightly, and he recorded this situation of Unlike Ning Zhuo in a jade slip.

Then, Zhu Xuanji threw it casually, and the jade slip turned into light and flew away, finally flying to Ning Xiaohui's side, hovering in front of her.

Ning Xiaohui took the jade slip, stuck it to her brow, and after her divine sense probed it, she was secretly shocked.

"It's Unlike Ning Zhuo?!"

"His progress is actually so rapid?!"

There was also Zhu Xuanji's voice in the jade slip: "Do you think Unlike Ning Zhuo will reach the standard of the medical hall's minimum position faster than you?"

"I heard. His recent goal is to strive for the position of physician."

Ning Xiaohui's pupils shrank sharply, almost biting her teeth to pieces: "Unlike Ning Zhuo!!!" ===== CHAPTER 264 =====
