Gods of the Nation: You worship the God of Longevity, I worship the King of Hell!

Chapter 75 Lu Chen's Astounding Move! Qianjiang City - Courtyard No. 1!
Lu Chen thought he had misread it.

He rubbed his eyes vigorously a few times.

But words don't lie.

The phrase "five thousand points" is breathtaking.

"wrong!"

Lu Chen immediately noticed something was wrong.

He earned a military merit of 5,000 points for treating the prefect's wife's illness.

It's a thousand points more than the rain-seeking prayers in Longhu County.

This is equivalent to an additional A-level task.

What is a prefect?

The prefect is the highest-ranking official in a province. Although Zheng Changguo has stepped down, he was once a powerful regional governor. (PS: I was scared by the previous censorship, so all related official positions have been rendered meaningless since then. I hope you understand.)
"Is it because his official rank is high that his mission is more special?"

That makes sense, but five thousand military merits is ridiculously high.

Lu Chen's intuition told him that something was amiss.

Just like the rain-seeking ceremony in Longhu County, the task description was brief, but the actual operation was fraught with hidden dangers.

If Sun Yourong hadn't revealed the inside story, he might not have been able to sort things out so quickly.

Lu Chen stared at the mission description, lost in thought.

A prize of 20 million is not high; it's just average.

But these exaggerated military merit points are enough to prove that this S-level mission has unparalleled value among its peers.

Looking across Jiangdu City, there are definitely quite a few families with assets exceeding one billion yuan.

However, there are still very few new elites.

The crux of the problem lies in military achievements.

This thing can't be bought or sold; you have to earn it yourself through honest means.

"Damn it! What are you waiting for? This is it! It's just about healing the sick and saving lives. If all else fails, I'll burn through the cold stove and still cure you!"

With double the bonus, that's 10,000 military merits!

It's almost equivalent to the reward of an SS-level mission.

Collect one-fifth of the [New Elite] fragment directly.

Now or never.

Without further hesitation, Lu Chen immediately called the teacher in to complete the formalities.

"You're going to take on another S-rank mission?"

"Yes, and I plan to take two!"

The Rebirth Academy is practically giving him free experience points.

If you don't take it, you'll be missing out; otherwise, you'll lose out big time.

"You want to take on another S-class? Two S-class at the same time?"

The young female teacher was dumbfounded.

"Is that alright? I remember that there's no limit to the number of missions for the elite class."

Lu Chen confirmed.

"Sure, you can take on a hundred if you want. But S-rank missions must be completed within twenty days; failure to do so within the deadline is considered a failure. Are you sure you can manage two at the same time?"

"Twenty days? No problem, take it!"

He completed the task in Longhu County in just two days.

Twenty days should be more than enough time to complete two.

"Okay, give me the mission documents..."

After completing the formalities, Lu Chen received the specific information for the two tasks.

There's not much to say about the [Rebirth Academy].

Even the specific location had to be found by oneself.

It is triggered randomly.

However, the information regarding the "Prefect's Mission" is explained very clearly.

"Qianjiang City, No. 1 Courtyard... As expected of a regional governor, his treatment remains extraordinary even after retirement."

As the capital of Jiangxi Province, Qianjiang City's importance is self-evident.

And what kind of place is No. 1 Courtyard? There's no need to elaborate.

Taking a deep breath, Lu Chen walked out of the private room and headed straight for the City Lord's Mansion.

Right now, he needs to figure out exactly what the second incentive policy for the top-tier class is.

"Hey, Lu Chen?!"

On the first floor, Li Ruoyi had just selected a new C-level mission when she turned around and saw a familiar figure rushing down from the second floor, passing by like the wind.

Even when she called out, she couldn't make Lu Chen stop.

"This guy……"

Li Ruoyi stomped her foot in anger.

"Ruoyi, you also know Lu Chen?"

"Teacher Zhang."

Li Ruoyi turned around and saw that it was the beautiful female teacher in charge of the student task hall.

"Yes, he's my classmate. But... I should call him senior now." She couldn't help but ask curiously, "Teacher Zhang, what kind of mission did he take on?"

The two best friends next to them also perked up their ears.

Teacher Zhang smiled slightly: "The details of the task must be kept confidential, I'm sorry."

"All right……"

"However..." Teacher Zhang revealed, intentionally or unintentionally, "One of my students has taken on another S-level mission."

"Another S-rank?!"

"And... he caught two in one go."

boom!
Li Ruoyi and her two best friends were stunned on the spot.

……

Half an hour later, in the city.

The majestic city lord's mansion stands tall.

"Hello, I would like to request an audience with the city lord."

Lu Chenliang displayed the city lord's order.

The guard's eyes lit up, and he dared not be negligent: "Sir, please come in." Lu Chen was led to the central hall.

"I'll go announce your arrival first, please wait a moment."

"Thank you." Lu Chen nodded.

the other side.

At this moment, Yu Feng was laughing heartily in his office.

Standing in front of him were the officials he had previously bet with.

"It's settled then, no one is allowed to go back on their word, everyone get everything ready!"

When Yu Feng received the call from the Third Middle School, he could hardly believe his ears.

After confirming that everything was correct, he immediately summoned all his subordinates.

"Oh my, how is this possible? It's an S-rank mission, after all. I've never heard of a Spirit Realm expert completing a mission of this rank in just two days."

"Yes, and besides, this kid is still a student with only first-grade strength. Although this mission isn't really related to strength, his speed is just too amazing."

Several officials still find it hard to accept this reality.

I thought victory was assured, but this is the result I never expected.

—A fourth-grade rare and precious material!

That's enough to make them feel the pinch for a whole year.

At this time, there was a knock on the door.

"My lord, a young man named Lu Chen requests an audience."

Yu Feng's eyes lit up: "Good lad! You've come at the perfect time! Quickly, invite him in!"

"Yes!"

A moment later, Lu Chen was led into the office.

"Oh, my little lucky star!"

Yu Feng excitedly stepped forward, grabbed Lu Chen's arms tightly with both hands, and shook them vigorously.

Lu Chen was a little confused: "Little Lucky Star? What does that mean?"

"It's not important, it's not important!" Yu Feng waved his hand, and the surrounding officials chuckled dryly.

Yu Feng was in high spirits: "Today, I, the city lord, am truly blessed with double happiness! I just received news of the Rakshasa Sect's setback, and now you've brought me such good news! Hahaha! Who says good fortune never comes in pairs? This is it!"

Rakshasa Cult!?

Upon hearing this name, Lu Chen's heart skipped a beat.

Strange, ever since I encountered the spiritual water, I've been hearing the name of this cult one after another.

"Sir, you said the Rakshasa Sect has suffered a setback?" The officials were taken aback at first, then their faces lit up with surprise.

Yu Feng nodded emphatically: "The news we received this morning is that the Demon-Slaying Army found the Rakshasa Sect's headquarters three days ago and besieged the four elders. They intended to offer them amnesty, but the four demons resisted stubbornly. In the end, the Demon-Slaying Army razed the headquarters to the ground and reportedly killed more than 5,000 Rakshasa Sect disciples. The First Elder Han Wuxiu and the Second Elder Feng Tianhua were killed on the spot, while the other two demons managed to escape."

"But it doesn't matter. Han Wuxiu and Feng Tianhua are the most sinful and the strongest. Without them, the rest won't amount to anything. The Rakshasa Sect... its fate is sealed."

Yu Feng explained with great interest.

"So that's how it is! This is truly gratifying!"

"Congratulations, sir! Back then, you were in charge of suppressing the Rakshasa Sect in southern Hunan, but they managed to escape. Now, you can finally put your mind at ease!"

Several officials offered their congratulations in unison.

Yu Feng let out a long sigh of relief: "That's right, that's exactly it. I've been holding this grudge for five whole years! Today I've finally vented half of it, no, most of it! But as a result, the Rakshasa Sect's bounty missions should be downgraded. Wen Chen, go and adjust it. The bounty level will remain unchanged for now, but the reward will be reduced by half to be consistent with other regions."

"Yes, my lord!"

After dismissing everyone else, only Lu Chen and Yu Feng remained in the office.

"Come, sit down."

Yu Feng personally poured a cup of tea and handed it to Lu Chen.

"Thank you, Lord City Lord." Lu Chen, who had just touched the sofa, quickly stood up again and accepted the teacup with both hands.

The two sat down on the sofa.

Yu Feng looked at Lu Chen with admiration: "I never expected you to be so capable. I heard that the mission in Longhu County was quite difficult, and many spiritual practitioners went there but returned empty-handed, yet you managed to solve it. What method did you use? Tell me about it."

Lu Chen replied succinctly, "Reporting to the City Lord, this junior merely offered sacrifices to a Well Dragon King and was fortunate enough to complete the mission."

"The Dragon King of the Well?" Yu Feng chuckled. "The gods you worship are really unconventional. First it was the God of Wealth, then Yama, and now the Dragon King of the Well... You've really found a unique way to do things."

Now that he knew the reason, Yu Feng didn't ask for any more details.

He naturally understood the rules of the bounty hunters.

"It's strange, though. Logically, the news of Longhu County's successful rainmaking should have spread by now, but I haven't received any word about it."

Yu Feng frowned slightly.

Lu Chen's heart skipped a beat.

Indeed, since he returned to Jiangdu City, it seems that no one knew that Longhu County had successfully prayed for rain.

Is it...

Lu Chen suddenly thought of a possibility.

—Sun Yourong!

Since she had the ability to notify all the people of Longhu County within minutes, she naturally had the ability to quietly block the news.

But why would she do this?
"Could it be that she knows I'm a low-key person and deliberately helped me keep the news quiet to avoid unnecessary trouble? Or... is there another reason?"

Lu Chen thought to himself.

However, the news being blocked is by no means a bad thing for Lu Chen.

If such shocking and unconventional practices as performing rituals were to become public, they could indeed lead to hidden dangers.

Sun Yourong's actions inadvertently did him a great favor.

"Hmm, this woman is really thoughtful and understanding."

At the same time, Lu Chen couldn't help but sigh, the strength of the [Great Clan] was truly unfathomable the more he got to know them!
The ability to turn one's hand into clouds or rain is nothing more than this.

"By the way, you're here for the second incentive policy for the top-tier class, right?"

Lu Chen snapped out of his daze and nodded quickly.

"Come, I'll take you there."

Yu Feng got up and led the way.

……

On the way, Yu Feng finally revealed what the second incentive policy was.

Upon hearing this, Lu Chen abruptly stopped in his tracks, his eyes widening:
"The Royal Treasury!?"

　The second update is finished and is currently being revised and polished. I will upload it soon.
