Chapter 571: How is my profession panel anime-styled? Chapter 269
After all, being able to make a seventh energy level Brass Dragon feel a headache, it definitely wouldn't be an easy mission.
However, if it exceeded his ability range, he would also refuse directly.
Li Ang really wanted the resources provided by [Aeon Logistics], but not to the point of betting his life for this little reward.
Thinking this, he asked calmly: "I wonder if Lord Mazres can tell me what exactly the mission is? So I can make some preparations in advance."
"Simple." The Red Dragon grinned, a hint of cruelty appearing on his face. "A few days ago, [Giant God Heavy Industry] placed an order with us, but the trash from the Bahamut branch lost a lot of manpower when delivering the goods, and the Tiamat branch members who went to investigate afterward also lost contact. I need you to lead a team to find out what happened."
"..."
Li Ang suspected for the first time if he had heard wrong.
Someone in the main universe actually dared to rob the goods of [Aeon Logistics] and [Giant God Heavy Industry]? The courage was a bit too big, right?!
However, he soon realized that this matter was probably the thing that made Mazres's mood not very beautiful in the mouth of the emerald dragon Chimera before entering the conference hall.
Seeing Li Ang not speaking for a long time, Mazres lowered his head and asked with a somewhat mocking tone: "What? Scared?"
"If you are unwilling to take on this mission, then honestly choose a department to join, and don't mention this unrealistic request again."
Hearing this, Li Ang came back to his senses.
At this moment, he didn't feel scared, but rather somewhat curious.
After all, having been in this world for so long, this was the first time he had dealt with [Giant God Heavy Industry], unlike the other four cosmic giant enterprises that had contact early on.
Plus, he had harvested three mechanical gods in the High School DxD world not long ago; going to this cosmic giant enterprise, which produced many mechanical-series professionals, might yield unexpected gains.
Thinking this, Li Ang didn't pay attention to Mazres's mockery, but asked: "[Giant God Heavy Industry] preparing to do? Are they conducting an investigation together with us?"
Facing the inquiry, before the Red Dragon could answer, Randolph, who was on the high platform, said: "Because it was a problem that appeared during the transportation process, this investigation is basically our responsibility, but [Giant God Heavy Industry] will also send personnel to cooperate."
As he said this, he couldn't help but sigh: "However, I still hope you consider it cautiously; according to our judgment, the matter inside probably isn't that simple."
In the past, [Aeon Logistics] hadn't lost goods; after all, there were many star pirates in this universe who didn't have eyes.
It was just that the vast majority were eventually found by the Tiamat branch and given friendly greetings, and only a few could manage to retreat with millions.
But star pirates who dared to provoke two cosmic giant enterprises at the same time like this were rarely met in Randolph's incomparably long life.
It was even a question mark whether the other party was a star pirate.
Facing the Brass Dragon's persuasion, Li Ang shook his head slightly and refused his kindness: "Thank you for your concern, but I should be able to handle this mission."
Based on Mazres's performance earlier, he didn't think the other party would arrange a mission that was certain death.
And even if his judgment was wrong, Seth, an old veteran in the group, would definitely remind him.
Furthermore, even if an unexpected situation were to arise, as long as it did not involve a Level 7 entity taking action, he would certainly have no trouble escaping while in the fully activated state of the [Hundred-Phase Avatar: Divine Manifestation], and there was even a high probability he could hold his own against the opponent.
Seeing that he had made a decision, Randolph stopped persuading: "Since you have your own ideas, let's talk about the reward next."
"Reward?"
Li Ang was taken aback; he thought this was just a simple assessment, and the salary would only be issued after officially joining [Aeon Logistics].
"You do things for the group, the group naturally needs to pay rewards." Seeing Li Ang seemed somewhat puzzled, Randolph said as a matter of course. "[Aeon Logistics] is not a black-hearted enterprise, what's more, Lord Aeon doesn't care about the little profit in the group."
"..."
Li Ang always felt that the Brass Dragon on the high platform was pointing at a certain group or certain hungry platform before he crossed over; after all, anyone who had delivered takeout knew how black-hearted these platforms were.
After thinking for a while, he asked tentatively: "I want to consult some secret information in the group, I wonder if it's possible?"
Hearing this, the Black Dragon belonging to the Farazul branch on the high platform couldn't help but laugh: "Rest assured, little guy, if you can really complete this mission, the intelligence channels in the group will naturally be open to you, so you can change to another condition."
There's such a good thing?
Li Ang was somewhat surprised; he didn't expect this to be a job entry benefit.
It was just that since it was like this, he had to think carefully about what he wanted.
Just as he was thinking carefully, Mazres flicked a gold coin to the ground: "If you really don't know what you want, you can choose this as a reward."
"Under normal circumstances, employees will choose this kind of gold coin as a reward, so it can barely be considered hard currency within the group."
Looking at the huge gold coin before him that was a full person tall, Li Ang couldn't help but twitch his mouth.
This gold coin clearly had traces of playing, and it was unknown whether it had been used as hard currency for a longer time, or had been used as a mattress for a longer time.
Suppressing the wild thoughts in his heart, Li Ang asked tentatively: "If I want to go to another world controlled by Lord Aeon, I wonder how much price I need to pay?"
"?"
Hearing this sentence, all the giant dragons present were stunned; clearly, they hadn't expected Li Ang to make such a request.
After a brief silence, Randolph asked somewhat curiously: "Little guy, which world are you talking about? Lord Aeon doesn't just control one world."
"..."
That's right, since the Federation and the Empire could control so many worlds, it made no sense that the God-Above-God who could reverse-invade the main universe would only control one DND world.
Thinking this, Li Ang added hurriedly: "It's the world where the planet Toril is located."
"You want to go to Faerûn?"
"Uh... mm."
Looking at Randolph, who was somewhat surprised, Li Ang nodded hesitatingly.
Faerûn was the center of the planet Toril, and famous places like Baldur's Gate were all located on the continent of Faerûn.
However, he didn't want to go to Faerûn, but wanted to go to the Bottomless Abyss to see if he could mix and become an Abyss Lord.
Because he didn't know what attitude the giant dragons of [Aeon Logistics] had toward the Bottomless Abyss, Li Ang felt it was better not to rashly say his real purpose.
After all, chromatic dragons might not have any thoughts, but metal dragons and gem dragons...
On the contrary, that God-Above-God probably wouldn't care about his small movements; after all, as long as it didn't endanger the entire [Realmspace]... that is, the crystal wall system where the planet Toril was located, the other party would probably be too lazy to care.
'Just don't know if the [Abyss] mentioned by [Abyss Composite Great Demon] has any connection with the [Bottomless Abyss]...'
Just as Li Ang was thinking this, Randolph scratched the metal scales on his face: "I don't know if Lord Aeon will agree, so I can't give you an answer, little guy."
"But if you are willing, I can ask for you."
"If Lord Aeon doesn't agree, then you can change to another condition, how about it?"
Hearing this, Li Ang nodded immediately: "Then I'll trouble Lord Randolph."
This was undoubtedly the best situation; after all, even if he couldn't go to the DND world, it wouldn't be a loss for him.
At this time, Mazres said: "Hehe... I really didn't misjudge you. As a reward for not disappointing me, you can choose the accompanying personnel for this mission yourself."
"But it must include one Tiamat branch member and one Bahamut branch member."
Although the Red Dragon had already recognized Li Ang's strength, in the end, he was not an official member of [Aeon Logistics], so naturally, he couldn't let him complete this mission alone.
It was just that after Li Ang heard Mazres's words, his expression couldn't help but become strange.
With a hint of inquiry, he secretly turned his head to look at Seth.
After seeing the other party nod imperceptibly, he answered: "Then thank you, Lord Mazres."
If it were someone else, they might only be able to choose some strangers to finish the job, but Li Ang really had suitable candidates.
Iris, Sophia.
The little dog dragon naturally didn't need to be said; basically, whatever Li Ang told her to do, she would do, while the old driver, after getting along for a period of time, would clearly also obey Li Ang's orders... not too excessive ones.
"Decide for yourself." Mazres waved his claws, showing an indifferent appearance. "Alright, you can go."
At this moment, the Red Dragon had already obtained the answer he wanted, so naturally, he wouldn't force Li Ang to stay.
Hearing this, Li Ang and Seth looked at each other, then turned and prepared to leave this circular conference hall.
But just as the two were about to step out of the hall, a voice suddenly came from behind them.
"Wait, little guy, since the serious business is talked about, then it's time to talk about some private matters." It was Randolph; at this moment, this Brass Dragon was staring at Li Ang with shining eyes. "Although you are quite young, you should have experienced quite a few things, right?"
"Tell me all about the tense and exciting adventures."
It was well known that Brass Dragons had an almost obsessive obsession with stories, and Randolph was naturally no exception.
And geniuses like the little dragon cub below often had experiences far beyond ordinary people, which he was extremely curious about; this was also why he had ordered Seth to bring the other party here earlier.
Facing this sudden request, Li Ang finally knew why Seth had reminded him to prepare more fresh water earlier.
He subconsciously looked at the other party, but only got a helpless look.
Fortunately, Li Ang had plenty of stories; at worst, he would tell Randolph "The Legend of the Sports Student Fighting Boxing," it was just unknown if the other party could accept the shocking plot of "Contemporary Strongest vs. History's Strongest"...
Carrying a somewhat unspeakable mood, Li Ang flew to the side of the Brass Dragon, then began to slowly tell the stories in his brain.
Black rocks were exposed on the earth, and the cracked surface revealed streaks of ghostly red firelight.
Magma flowed slowly between the cracks, and the air was full of the pungent smell of sulfur.
Iris walked cautiously in this incomparably harsh environment, as if danger could jump out at any time.
'Woo... Li Ang...'
Thinking of her feeder, the little dog dragon let out a wronged whimper, then took out a huge white metal block to comfort her injured... soul.
But just as she was about to swallow this metal block, a voice with a hint of banter rang out not far away: "You're still the same, Iris."
However, Iris didn't pay attention to this voice, but swallowed the metal block straight away, then touched her belly quite satisfied.
Seeing himself being ignored, the owner of the voice was clearly somewhat angry: "Iris!"
But even so, Iris still didn't pay attention to the other party, but walked straight in the direction of her memory.
At this moment, the owner of the voice was clearly broken; but immediately after, he thought of something, and couldn't help but let out a sneer: "It's no wonder your mother starved to death, it seems it's because everything was eaten by you..."
Before he could finish speaking, he had already been pressed firmly to the ground by a pitch-black sharp claw.
Iris looked at the black dragon struggling constantly under her feet, and said quite seriously: "My mother didn't starve to death."
"Woo...!"
At this moment, the black dragon's eyes were full of disbelief; after all, he hadn't even seen the action of the mocking object before he had been pressed to the ground.
As Iris's claws tightened, the disbelief in the black dragon's eyes gradually turned into fear.
This silly dragon really intended to kill him!?
