OmniClass Boss - Chapter 55
Chapter 55: I’m My Son
Although Xiao Yu was a bit unwilling, he still went to the hospital for a check-up. The health check-up did not take too much time as the medical technologies of this time were very advanced. He was done with the check-up after he stood on a machine that scanned back and forth several times.
But the result would not come out immediately, it would take a while.
Xiao Yu did not take it to heart. He had just gone to make sure that everything was good. When he left the hospital and reached home, it was past ten o’clock. The pent up sleepiness came up and he fell asleep as soon as he closed his eyes on the bed.
He slept all the way till six o’clock in the evening. Xiao Yu woke up stretching his back. The dizziness he had experienced previously was gone, but his body still felt a bit weak. Xiao Yu thought that he should not stay up late anymore. He was 25 years old already and was no longer as fit as when he was young. He was used to staying up all night continuously for several days a week, but now he would feel uncomfortable when staying up for a single night only.
Feeling weak, Xiao Yu decided to take out the fitness equipment to do some exercises, which he had not done in a long time. After that, he ordered food to fill his stomach and took a rest. Seeing that it was almost eight o’clock, Xiao Yu logged into the game.
As soon as he entered the character login interface, he received a system prompt message.
System prompt message: You have received an email.
When he opened the email, it was from Moon Scar•Shadow Chaser.
It contained the Elemental Seed. Along with it, there was a simple message.
I’ve sent the thing to you, we are cleared on both sides. You’re welcome to contact me if you have any work for me to do. —Lin Yueying.
“Oh, her name is Lin Yueying, which is quite similar to her name in the game.”
Xiao Yu thought as he took out the Elemental Seed. Looking at the stats and description, Xiao Yu was gratified. This battle of Night Whisper Village was worth it. This thing alone was worth his fight over these several days. He was very anxious to create an Elemental Creature account and play the new account instead. As for this Goblin character, it would be burnt to ashes soon due to the Flame Mark. Hence, he did not care about it at all.
But he was a professional player—how could he waste this character that was already advanced to Boss Mode? Why not use this Goblin character to scout the Shadow Brotherhood? Even if he did not plan to join them in the future, he could at least understand the operation rules of Monster Mode in game studios.
Thinking of this, he held in his anxiousness, placed the Elemental Seed into the system warehouse, and entered the game.
After going online, he was still in the cabin of the Rebel. As he walked out of the cabin, he came across an acquaintance.
Blake Rhode (Shadow Guard) said, “Hey, you’re finally online.”
Xiao Yu was shocked. “Eh, Blake Rhode, aren’t you dead?”
“This is a new account,” Blake Rhode said.
At this time, Xiao Yu found out that Blake Rhode was a level 15 Elite when he was in Night Whisper Village, but now he was only level 10, and his Mode had become Rare Elite.
“So you’ve created a new account? But how did you advance to Rare Elite so quickly? And why did your name remain the same? I thought the system didn’t allow duplicate names.”
“That’s simple. The whole West Wild belongs to my cousin. He arranged some named monsters for me to kill to advance. As for my name, in terms of the plot setting, I’m the son of my former character, so I can use the same name.”
Xiao Yu thought that this could be a way. He knew that in foreign countries, the father and his son could have the same name.
“So your previous character is old Blake and now you’re Blake junior?”
Xiao Yu mocked in his heart. Then he changed the subject and asked strangely, “Then why don’t you just get Boss Mode?”
“It’s not easy. It’s easy to advance to Rare Elite, as I only need to kill two Elite monsters to get 100 Reputation Points. If I want to advance to Elite Mode, I need 300 Reputation Points, for which I have to kill seven or eight Elite monsters. And the Reputation Points required to advance to Boss Mode is much more. Although our Shadow Brotherhood has a lot of strong monsters, they can’t be wasted so easily.”
Simply speaking, this was a cost-effective problem. It was hard for ordinary people to advance by killing the monsters. Xiao Yu nodded to show his understanding. “Then why are you looking for me? If you want to recruit me to join your studio, I’m afraid that I can’t agree yet. I’m still thinking about it.”
Xiao Yu let out his words first, but he left some room for negotiation. “I’m still thinking about it” meant that if they could give him more benefits, he might be done considering.
But Blake Rhode waved his hands. “That’s not urgent. You don’t know much about us yet, and it’s normal that you still have some concerns. But there is not only one way of cooperation provided by the Shadow Brotherhood, we can always cooperate in another way.”
Blake Rhode started to explain to him.
It turned out that Shadow Dynasty Studio was strict at recruiting members. Everyone who joined the studio can get a salary and bonuses. The amount could compete with normal companies and enterprises, and it was not a problem to get a monthly salary of over $10,000.
However, it was not easy to join the studio and become a full-time employee. One needed to at least prove his ability. The previous recruitment of Xiao Yu was an exceptional admission. Once one joined the studio, the player would have to move to the studio in reality and then fully obey the orders given by the studio in the game. Even the ownership of their game characters belonged to the studio. The players have only the right to use it, which was equivalent to becoming a worker for the studio.
The second way of cooperation was to join the Shadow Brotherhood as a game character, then he would not be counted as an internal member of the studio. It was similar to the guilds of the Adventurers, but it just changed the Adventurer Guild to Monster Force.
These members, of course, had no salaries or bonuses, but they could get subsidies according to the strength of their game character. Normal Mode had no subsidies, while Rare Elite, Elite Mode, and small Bosss could earn 20, 50, and 100 dollars per day respectively. But the premise was that they had to stay online for no less than eight hours a day and obey the Brotherhood’s orders. If they stayed online for less than eight hours, they could only get half of the subsidies. There were extra rewards if they had good performances.
The third way of cooperation was to be codependent with the Brotherhood. The players would join the Shadow Brotherhood in name and could avoid the attacks of monsters in West Wild. But in fact, they had no affiliation or any financial relationship. Of course, if they encountered attacks of Adventurer players or other Monster Forces, codependent players had the obligation to help fight for the Shadow Brotherhood—but this was not enforced.

In fact, these codependent players were not very reliable. They were basically just there to keep up appearances.
Xiao Yu preferred the second way. A daily income of $100, which meant that he could earn $3,000 dollars a month. He had to say that the salary was not too high. Due to inflation these years, even street sweepers could earn a monthly salary of more than $3,000. His half pay was just $1,500 dollars. However, considering this was just a part-time job, this income was acceptable.
“Then I’ll choose the second way.”
Blake Rhode nodded with a knowing expression.
“Then I’ll invite you. You can just click to join.”
System prompt message: Blake Rhode invites you to join the Shadow Brotherhood, do you want to join? Yes/No.
Xiao Yu clicked on yes.
System prompt message: You have joined the Shadow Brotherhood. From now on, you will fight for the career of Dakar Rhode. You can query the information of the Shadow Brotherhood in the Monster Force System.
