My profession is too unique.

Chapter 57 I am already at the second level

"Huh, why isn't there a result yet?" Su Chen waited for a moment and found that no more information appeared after "...".

“This Black Tuo believer is quite resilient. He is indeed a special profession. Last time, the ‘engineering apprentice’ immediately knelt down. I guess it will take some time for him to reform after this iron-fisted education.”

Su Chen muttered to himself, estimating that there shouldn't be any problems, as the professionals all seemed full of confidence.

After collecting the precious metals and other valuables from the ground, Su Chen stretched and habitually took out the Black Flame Potion from his storage space. He intended to put it away, but then drank it down.

There are still two tubes left, so they're just sitting there anyway.

"I can't feel anything at all."

Before he could even try it out in the gravity chamber, he could clearly feel the difference. The burning sensation he used to feel was completely gone, as if he had just drunk a sip of tea, which was utterly useless.

"I estimate that even a double gravity chamber won't be of much use."

"Second-tier potion, E-grade body tempering method... resources..." Su Chen rubbed his brows, thinking hard, but he had no way to obtain them himself. "I still have to pin my hopes on the Supervision Department."

Touching his stomach, Su Chen felt a bit hungry, so he went out to the canteen of the Supervision Department for breakfast. He had been drinking various medicines and felt that the taste in his mouth had changed.

I picked out two large chicken drumsticks, each as thick as an arm, saying they were "free-range chickens." I ladled out a bowl of sizzling, golden broth, found a corner, and began to feast.
“Panko is actually late today.” Several patrol guards were talking nearby. “That’s really unusual. He’s usually one of the first ones to arrive.”

"Maybe I feel like sleeping in today."

The group only used it as a topic of conversation during the meal, exchanging a few words before moving on to other topics.

"He arrives early and leaves late, he's so dedicated to his work, how come nobody seems to think there's something wrong with him?"

Su Chen inwardly scoffed, still calculating in his mind, "Without revealing my second-tier profession, I probably won't be able to easily obtain these resources... There shouldn't be any problems... it's just that city lord..."

Boom!Boom!Boom!
"You're really here..."

Halfway through his meal, a shadow fell over him. Fatty Sun tapped on the table, sat opposite him, and resentfully refused the chicken leg Su Chen offered. "I heard from the guard that the elevator stopped in the cafeteria, but I didn't quite believe it at first."

"My mouth is practically tasteless, have a taste." Su Chen's tone was much more relaxed.

"Hey bro, you're really something else," he complained. "Last night you called me at the last minute to go celebrate Zhou Li's success with everyone, but you were the only one who didn't go."

"That Zhou Li, she was dressed so beautifully and smelled so sweet. When I got home, I still smelled of perfume on me. Your sister-in-law almost tore me apart."

"Something came up unexpectedly. I'll trouble you to entertain me, brother."

Su Chen asked Sun Tai to sit down. Just in case, he had notified Han Da last night.

They even called out the other members of the patrol team, explaining the reason why they thought Zhou Li was celebrating her appointment as a messenger.

Hearing Su Chen say that, Fatty Sun waved his hand and said, "It's nothing. Zhou Li was really unhappy and waited for you for half the night."

Su Chen just smiled at this and then asked, "Brother Sun, I was just about to come find you."

"I'd like to ask, what channels are available to obtain second-tier potions and E-grade body tempering techniques?"

"Second-tier... Your friend wants it?" Fatty Sun pondered, his small eyes narrowing. "That's not easy. Second-tier potions are all purchased from other places. The trade caravan only comes once a month, and they are allocated in fixed quantities."

“On the black market, one serving can sell for seven or eight thousand, the premium is too high.”

"Assignment?" Su Chen asked in surprise.

“Yes…” Fatty Sun nodded, “Second-tier professionals are mostly management personnel in various organizations, and they are allocated training potions in fixed quantities.”

“As for the E-grade body tempering method, it requires the minister’s authorization to allocate,” Fatty Sun said. “Now, it probably needs the city lord’s approval.” Su Chen thought for a moment, then sat up straight: “Actually, it’s not my friend who wants it, it’s me who needs it.”

"You?" Fatty Sun didn't react for a moment, then suddenly sat up straight on the sofa, his eyes wide, and exclaimed in surprise, "Already at the second level?"

Not far away, several guards looked on with surprise, seemingly having faintly heard the words "second tier," and their suspicious gazes swept over Su Chen.

"Hmm." Su Chen nodded. Since the Supervision Department operates on a quota system, there's no need to deliberately hide it; obtaining resources as soon as possible is the key.

“Really…” A complex expression appeared on Sun Tai’s face. “Too fast. He really has perseverance.”

Since arriving at the Supervision Department, Su Chen has almost never left the house.

Sun Tai hadn't felt anything particularly about this before, but upon suddenly hearing the news, he couldn't help but sigh.

After saying that, he perked up again, "Come on, stop eating, come with me to find the city lord. You won't get a penny less of what's due."

.........

Still no clues?

In the top-floor office of the Exploration Department, Yang Yan looked at Zhang Hongbo with displeasure. "We can't find anything openly, and we've been investigating secretly for so long, but we still haven't found anything."

Zhang Hongbo's expression was also not good. "I thought there were undercurrents beneath Nanfeng City, but it seems not. Zhou Xian is also very honest."

Yang Yan was very dissatisfied: "The Ghost God Cult could not have brought in an empty shell of a ghost artifact for no reason. There must be something you haven't discovered."

“We didn’t find anything through a high-profile investigation, and the covert investigation also yielded no results… Zhou Xian hasn’t taken any action either.” Zhang Hongbo paused. “Let’s try a different approach: lure the snake out of its hole.”

"Tell me about it," Yang Yan couldn't help but look over.

Zhang Hongbo hesitated and shook his head, "It is a bit risky."

"If we don't take the risk, are we just waiting to die?" Yang Yan couldn't help but shake his head.

These guys, having been local tyrants for so long, are afraid of everything.

“It’s not us taking risks, it’s making the people below us take risks,” Zhang Hongbo sighed.

"Since you're being protected, you should be willing to sacrifice yourself." Yang Yan said coldly, "Who?"

“This is another troublesome part,” Zhang Hongbo said with a wry smile, “He is a student of our Minister of Supervision.”

“That’s even better, your awareness should be even higher.” Yang Yan raised an eyebrow and said bluntly, “Aren’t you just afraid that he will come back and cause you trouble? As long as we can expose those maggots, I’ll take the blame for this.”

"But are you sure he can lure the snake out of its hole?"

“Sigh…” Zhang Hongbo sighed and tossed out a document: “Su Chen, it was he who cooperated with Yuan Chenyang to intercept the Holy Word Stone outside the city, which can be considered as thwarting the conspiracy of the Ghost God Sect.”

"At the same time, Zhou Xian's son's death is also related to him, and Qi Chuan's death also seems to be related to him. He also seems to have made a great contribution to finding the artifact."

"Moreover, he has already survived an assassination attempt, which might draw out some people."

"So crucial?" Yang Yan was quite surprised, taking the information and glancing at it. "So young, a first-tier professional... and with the Brilliant Silver Body talent..."

A hint of hesitation flickered in his eyes; this was the kind of person he wanted as bait…

But upon seeing the end, he was taken aback: "Refugees?"
