I'm in Warhammer, I just want to grow mushrooms

Chapter 18 The Road is Difficult and Hard to Climb
"Everyone, you have successfully completed the first day of training. I would like to express my recognition and praise for your abilities and tenacity."

Rob Norden paused and spread his hands:

"But unfortunately, due to some reasons that are inconvenient to disclose, the collection department can only recruit ten full-time employees at most. I will select the best candidates based on their scores during the training period. Full-time employees will marry into the Kram family and get the protection of the Kram family from now on, and bid farewell to their status as lower nesters forever."

It turns out that becoming a regular employee is not as simple as becoming a retainer.

After officially joining the company, the Kram family will arrange a marriage for you, allowing you to truly integrate into the big family and become a part of it!

Robnos' words made everyone excited, and even Li Nuo was shocked.

The hive world is the world of the family.

Families large and small unite to control the entire hive through various business guilds and professional associations.

Climbing from the lower nest to the upper nest, one cannot avoid dealing with family forces.

Among the many hive families, the Vorges family has the most prominent status, and its family leader is the governor of the hive - Epimet.

The Kram family originated from the Upper Nest and its status is slightly lower than that of the Vorges family.

It spreads its roots from the upper nest to the lower nest, constantly absorbing nutrients and replenishing itself in the process of development, just like a towering ancient tree that resists the invasion of time.

The apprentices present were all ants in the eyes of the Kram family.

But it is undeniable that the opportunity to make a big leap forward is right before our eyes.

Even if one joins the Kram family as a daughter-in-law, it is an opportunity to change one's destiny.

Think about it.

If he didn't have a big family as a backer, how could he live a life of idleness and waiting for death in Zhongchao as a small foreman after retirement?

There were 80 people when we came in the morning, but now there are only 31.

Except for those who left at the beginning, the rest were eliminated during the excavation process.

Needless to say, the reason for their elimination was definitely related to falling into hallucinations.

Of the 31 people who are able to resist the illusion, 21 more will be eliminated.

The high elimination rate made everyone nervous, and the atmosphere on the scene became extremely solemn.

Li Nuo now understood why some people showed hostility.

This hostility is not directed at him, but at all competitive opponents.

After tasting the eggs and synthetic sausages for lunch, no one would not look forward to enjoying such food forever.

No one wants to be eliminated, and no one wants to spend their whole life in the lower nest breathing the dirtiest air, drinking the dirtiest water, and eating the dirtiest food.

This is the primary reason why people show aggression.

But Robnos' next words made Li Nuo's expression change slightly.

"The Kram family believes in balancing difficulty and reward."

Robnos raised his index finger and shook it, his eyes sweeping over Li Nuo intentionally or unintentionally:
"The difficulty of the collection department's training is designed based on young and middle-aged men. For a 15-year-old boy, the training is extremely difficult.

"So, if Li Nuo passes the screening and officially joins the company, his rewards will be doubled. He can choose one of the two girls from the Kram family as his future wife and receive double the dowry, double the salary, and double the commission."

Everyone's eyes were focused on one point, and their envy, jealousy and hatred were evident in their words.

Li Nuo was stunned and overturned his previous judgment.

It turned out that everyone's hostility was indeed directed at him.

The problem in this world is not the scarcity of things but the inequality of their distribution.

Wouldn't it be hateful if I took up two dowries alone?

"Tsk tsk tsk, Li Nuo, you are so lucky."

"Yes, fortunately the Nest City practices monogamy, otherwise you might have to marry two wives."

"Haha, two wives? Looking at his physique, one of them would be enough to crush him."

Someone waved at Li Nuo, signaling him to look at him:
"Hey, Li Nuo, you haven't even grown all your hair yet, how can you possibly beat us young and strong people? I think you should just quit."

Everyone echoed and pointed the finger at Li Nuo.

No matter what the final result is, it’s always a good idea to get rid of the troublesome kid first.

The noisy voice did not anger Li Nuo. He remained calm and composed.

The angrier and more anxious others are, the calmer he becomes.

He is just that kind of person, he likes to see others desperate and break down their defenses.

"Okay, everyone, please be patient and listen to what I have to say."

Robnos exhaled a puff of smoke, looked around, and signaled everyone to keep quiet:

"The second thing I want to tell you is closely related to your body. From today on, you need to be injected with a strengthening agent to strengthen your body."

Enhancer?
great.

With a strong body and the root outline provided by the system, your digging efficiency will definitely double, and you may even have a chance to catch up with others.

Li Nuo was secretly delighted.

The other apprentices were also all smiles.

The hall was filled with a relaxed and cheerful atmosphere, and everyone saw a bright future.

The lift door opened and the security guard entered the hall with a metal syringe in his hand.

The metal syringe does not leak light, so others cannot see the color of the enhancer.

Li Nuo cast the identification spell.

[Name: Unknown enhancer]

[Description: This potion can quickly enhance physical strength. ]

[Attention! This potion is suspected to contain the concentrated essence of ghost fungus! After injection, there is a certain probability that your soul will be swallowed by the subspace! ]

???

Li Nuo's mind was filled with question marks.

Before he could think carefully, the security guard quickly inserted a nano needle into his neck.

A slight tearing sensation came, and Li Nuo felt a stream of cool water entering under his skin.

The needle retracted into the syringe, and an intense feeling of heat erupted in the body.

Li Nuo's body was shaking uncontrollably, and beads of sweat were oozing out of every pore in his body.

Other people in the hall were also injected with boosters at the same time.

The cheerful atmosphere created by Robnos with generous rewards disappeared, replaced by the burning anxiety and muffled groans that he had to suppress in his body.

"So hot, so hot."

One of them took off his shirt and wanted to drink water from the water dispenser.

The security guard who was responsible for giving him the injection grabbed his shoulders and forced him back into his seat.

Robnos held his pipe and said in a deep voice:
"During the onset of the drug's effects, you are not allowed to drink water or eat. Also, I forgot to tell you. The theoretical mortality rate of the first booster injection is 33.3%. From the second injection onwards, the theoretical mortality rate remains at 11.1%."

"Damn it! Why didn't you tell me about the lethal injection rate earlier?!"

"Fuck! First you dig mushrooms in the cave, now you force me to get injections. I've had enough!"

"The reward you just mentioned is purely to keep us steady! So that we can get this damn shot!"

"Yes! You have been fooling us all along! You old fox!"

"Quiet!"

Robnos shouted loudly, and the surging sound waves exploded in everyone's ears:

"Do you think the Kram family is doing charity? You are totally wrong! Without giving, there will be no reward!
"You are nothing but a bunch of Downbringers with nothing to lose except your rotten lives.

"Besides your life, what else can you have that the Kram family would value? Apart from your life, what else can you give to the Kram family!"

Robnos stared at the angry apprentices, with a beast-like grin on his face:

"Be grateful to me! Praise the ghost mushroom! If I hadn't discovered this magical creation and created this unique potion and tobacco, you would never have the chance to breathe the air of Middle Nest in your life!"
