Level up, Slay Monsters, And Collect Equipment Everyday - Chapter 2
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
After being attacked by the two monsters, Lin Shu felt a wave of irritation and nausea. Fortunately, he did not feel like retching.
Lin Shu did not say anything, but he was extremely displeased. ‘This task was originally inexplicable, but it was suddenly thrown at me, and I had to finish it today!’
‘Bah! It’s almost time to get off work. Even if I worked overtime, I don’t know how long it would take to prepare the documents. The point was that I don’t understand this project at all,’ Lin Shu thought.
“No…”
Lin Shu made up his mind and said, “It’s impossible. I can’t handle it. You should find someone else.”
BEEP!
Congratulations! You have said the word “no” in anger. You have hit the target in one hit and dealt severe damage to the Level 5 Gasbag.
You gained 680 Exp. Points and 2.37 Gold Coins.
BEEP!
Congratulations! You have slayed your first monster. You gained 1880 Exp. Points, 2.199 Gold Coins, and one mysterious gift.
Lin Shu was amazed.
Zhao Xuan was even more surprised. He was stunned and didn’t know how to react. He didn’t expect Lin Shu to reject him so directly.
Tian Cheng was also surprised, but he immediately said, “You have to do it even if you can’t. Tomorrow is the pre-inspection. Why can’t you do it?”
“I’m not in charge of this project. I still have other things to do.”
BEEP!
Congratulations! You have used the Chained Blade of Refusal. Each hit will cause a certain amount of damage to the Level 9 Buck Passer.
You have gained 880 Exp. Points and 44 Gold Coins.
Lin Shu tried his best to ignore the congratulatory notification. He knew it was inappropriate to talk back directly to his superiors, but he could not stand it anymore. From time to time, they would suddenly throw such things at him.
Zhao Xuan was a little embarrassed. Zhao Xuan didn’t expect Lin Shu to say directly that Lin Shu wasn’t in charge of the project. In fact, Zhao Xuan was in charge of it in the first place.
Zhao Xuan glanced at Tian Cheng and then looked at Lin Shu, who had really made up his mind not to prepare the pre-inspection documents. His eyes swept across the office.
At that moment, the monsters lowered their heads in tacit understanding.
In an instant, the floating title on the monster’s head sank.
Tian Cheng didn’t want to talk to Lin Shu anymore, so he told Zhao Xuan, “Arrange for someone else to prepare the documents for the pre-inspection. It has to be ready by 10 a.m. tomorrow at the latest.
‘Bah! Just a second ago, he said I had to prepare the documents today, and now someone else had to prepare them at 10 a.m. tomorrow!’ Lin Shu thought.
Lin Shu didn’t say anything else. He was feeling rather happy since he wouldn’t do that anyway.
Sometimes, one had to be bold enough to refuse and say no.
‘The “no” word? This attack was a good one. One truly needed a “no” to counter,’ Lin Shu thought.
Lin Shu saw the newcomer, Huang Wen silently gave him a thumbs up. He looked back at the two superiors and thought, ‘Worse come worst, I could just resign. What was there to be afraid of? A few thousand a month, and they expect me to pay with my life?’
Lin Shu returned to his work desk and began to save the completed tool drawings. He first checked and reviewed the drawings before going through the requisition SOP.
BEEP!
Congratulations! You have completed the inbound SOP for Tooling. You gained 23 Exp. Points and four Gold Coins.
BEEP!
Congratulations! You have completed the tool requisition SOP. You gained 23 Exp. Points and four Gold Coins.
Looking at the experience points and gold coins, Lin Shu realized that the rewards for slaying monsters were much better.
‘Oh right, there was also a mysterious gift.’ Lin Shu thought.
Lin Shu opened the mysterious gift in his inventory, and a Passion Fruit appeared.
Passion Fruit: After use, you will be full of energy, enthusiasm, and passion for 1 hour.
Price: 8888 Gold Coins
‘8888 gold coins? That pricey?’ Lin Shu pondered.
Lin Shu glanced at his balance and realized he only had 288 gold coins. As expected, he was still poor even after the country had been extricated from poverty.
‘It seemed that the Passion Fruit was an item that could be bought with gold coins in the Item Mall. However, my level needed to be higher to unlock the Item Mall.
‘I wonder what was inside the Item Mall.
‘But, even if I could unlock it, I’m a frail player and probably couldn’t afford any items,’ Lin Shu thought.
With 50% doubt and 50% anticipation, Lin Shu used the Passion Fruit. The second he used it, a small blue fruit appeared in his hand. Lin Shu hesitated for a moment, then ate it in one bite. After chewing a few times, he found that it tasted good and instantly felt the changes in his body.
‘It was true! I do not have illusions! This feeling is too good to be an illusion! Ah! I could feel the energy in me and fight ten monsters! No! I want to fight twenty of them!’ Lin Shu thought.
Lin Shu was passionate and started working on his Tool Drawing and calculating the cost. He devoted himself to his work, and his efficiency was extremely high. There was no pause at all.
From time to time, the system’s congratulatory notification sounded in Lin Shu’s ear.
BEEP!
Congratulations! You have completed drawing one component. You gained 33 Exp. Points and three Gold Coins.
BEEP!
Congratulations! You have completed calculating the cost of one component. You gained 23 Exp. Points and three Gold Coins.
BEEP!
Congratulations! You have completed drawing a component group. You gained 43 Exp. Points and six Gold Coins.
BEEP!
BEEP!
Lin Shu’s work efficiency increased after consuming Passion Fruit. He finished the Tool Drawings and cost calculation of the new product in less than an hour.
More importantly, Lin Shu knew that the virtual panel wasn’t an illusion. It was real, and nothing was more accurate than what he felt now. It was an indescribable feeling.
Lin Shu looked at the information on his virtual panel. His current experience bar had reached 4150/10000. He could reach Level 19 after farming some more experience points. However, the experience points gained from slaying monsters were the majority of the time.
If Lin Shu hadn’t been able to slay the monsters, his experience points wouldn’t have increased so quickly.
‘Slay monsters?’ An idea came into Lin Shu’s mind, and he turned to look at his colleagues beside him.
‘Slackers, Idlers… Although there were many monsters, most were harmless, so I couldn’t just draw his sword and attack them mercilessly.
‘On the contrary, I didn’t know how to attack even if I wanted to. According to the two attacks I had made against my superiors, I had to counterattack based on the monster’s skills,’ Lin Shu thought.
Idler Chen Ping, who had already packed his things and was waiting to get off work, felt an inexplicable chill when Lin Shu’s gaze swept over him, and he shivered.
Lin Shu looked at Chen Ping suspiciously.
“The temperature of the air-conditioning in the office is too low. It’s a little cold,” Ping Chen grinned and said.
Lin Shu shifted his gaze to the other monster, Pessimist Qi Yuan…
Level 9 Pessimist
Skill: Negative energy radiation. Infecting people by enveloping them in negative energy.
‘The Level-9 Pessimist’s skill was negative energy radiation, and it infects people by enveloping them in negative energy! There must be a way to counterattack such a monster!’ Lin Shu thought.
