Chapter 17: Is this the benefit of the Millelith? Keqing

While leading Lin Mo and the others to their living quarters, Duer also briefed them on some basic information.

He let them know that they could take it easy today and officially start their duties tomorrow.

Hearing these words, the two of them immediately looked pleasantly surprised.

"Is this the benefit of the Millelith? This is great; now I can save up some money."

"Paid once a month, with extra Mora, and even vacation time—hiss."

They only just realized that being in the Millelith was such a fortunate thing.

"Don't be too happy just yet."

Seeing the two of them looking so happy, Duer glanced at the calm-faced Lin Mo and secretly approved of him in his heart.

Then, he spoke to the happy ones: "High benefits also mean high risks. Don't think that your patrol area is only within Liyue Harbor. Sometimes you will need to go outside the city, or even live in the wild, and go to places like Wangshu Inn to rotate shifts. There are also missions to clear out monsters."

Hearing this, the two who were just happy immediately restrained their expressions.

Yes, while successfully joining the Millelith comes with generous entry conditions, the Millelith is not without casualties.

Even in the peaceful Liyue of today, the number of Millelith deaths and injuries every year is still not small.

"However, you don't need to worry too much."

Looking at the two who had straightened their faces, Duer continued: "Even if you go out to clear monsters, as long as you don't act recklessly and stick with your team, there won't be any danger. The monsters around Liyue Harbor are quite few, and the danger is not high. Just pay attention, and there won't be any problems."

"Alright, you've arrived. Each room has simple bedding and such, so you don't need to buy any. I will come by again tonight to notify you where you will be stationed next."

"Lin Mo, stay behind."

As he spoke, Duer turned his gaze toward Lin Mo.

Watching the two who had already excitedly walked into the house, Lin Mo turned his head to look at Duer, his expression surprised.

What did this person want by calling him back?

"Because your sword arts are so exquisite, and the Millelith operates on the principle that those who are capable should do more, I will try to see if I can appropriately help you raise your Mora. The place you are stationed should be in the outskirts of Liyue Harbor; you shouldn't be transferred too far away."

"So I called you back to let you prepare."

Duer explained internally: "It's not like there haven't been people with powerful martial arts who came to apply for the Millelith before; they would be stationed in places that weren't very peaceful, so I want you to be prepared."

"Understood."

Hearing Duer's words, Lin Mo nodded gently.

What Duer said, he had already seen on the recruitment notice at the hiring point.

Being in the Millelith has its benefits, but it also has its risks; this was nothing.

With the sword arts he currently possessed, for things like Slimes and Hilichurls, it was simply a massacre.

Moreover, as Liyue Harbor is the most prosperous area in Teyvat, the surrounding areas are definitely cleared by the Millelith frequently, so it can hardly be called dangerous.

Besides, being in the Millelith within Liyue Harbor is not that easy either.

Although it is safer, if you have to run around for trivial matters, it is quite troublesome.

He didn't really like that kind of thing.

"Alright then, that's it. I'll go back to enter your information first and come find you tonight."

Seeing Lin Mo nod, Duer also nodded, then bid farewell to Lin Mo and left.

After leaving, he returned to the Millelith department he was responsible for immediately.

This was a branch office of the Millelith.

In the office were several Millelith squad leaders.

At this moment, they were discussing.

"I don't know how the recruitment will go this time. Sigh, the young people these days have such poor physiques."

"Indeed, to join the Millelith, not to mention how powerful your martial arts need to be, at least you need a strong physique. But even so, those who can meet the threshold are still few."

"The Lantern Rite is coming, and we are short-handed. We need to transfer experienced Millelith with decent martial arts to the Guyun Stone Forest area to solve the pirate problem there. For inside and outside the city, we can let the newcomers be stationed."

"How was it, Duer?"

A Millelith squad leader who was chatting suddenly looked at the returning Duer, his eyes brightening slightly, and he said with a smile: "How was the recruitment today?"

"Compared to the past few days, the harvest is great. We recruited three."

Duer said with a chuckle: "And one of them is an especially good seedling."

"Oh?"

Hearing this, this Millelith squad leader's eyes brightened: "Three? Not bad, not bad. Being able to recruit three is better than before."

You have to know, their branch here couldn't even recruit two in a day before.

"Tap, tap, tap."

At this moment, footsteps sounded, causing the few Millelith who were talking to be stunned.

Subconsciously, they looked toward the sound.

They saw a young woman walking in from outside the door, wearing black silk, with long purple hair draped over her shoulders, faintly shimmering with a blue-purple ghostly light, like stars in the night sky.

Her tall and slim figure exuded elegance and mystery.

Her eyes were deep and lively, like two bright stars, shining brilliantly. Her long eyebrows were slightly raised, revealing a touch of determination and confidence.

Her whole person exuded a mysterious and noble aura, as if she were a goddess of the night sky, making people involuntarily fall for her.
