From Resident Evil to becoming a gacha god

Chapter 34 The Crossroads of the Four Realms, The Jade River Society

"Gentlemen, the 100 million Shanghai dollars I hid under my bed has disappeared. Do you have any clues?"

Upon hearing this, the leader of the "Carrion Gang" twitched his lips as if he had been electrocuted.

What the hell? One hundred million Shanghai dollars, and all you have under your bed are two crumpled wads of toilet paper that fell into a corner of the bathroom, not a single penny!

With 100 million Shanghai dollars, could you live in a shantytown within the 18th Ring Road?

Also, do you know how much 100 million Shanghai dollars is? It's enough to pile up a bed of money, let alone stuff it under the bed!

The leader was internally cursing, but dared not make a move. Beads of cold sweat dripped from his forehead, and his legs trembled uncontrollably.

He knew he was in a special situation.

The time flow in the mission world and the main world is not much different. Normally, the first journey through the heavens takes about 2-3 days.

The fact that this young man could stay in the mission world for ten days suggests that he has likely uncovered other missions, and his awakened talent is usually quite good.

If such a person doesn't die young, he's bound to become a great figure in the future!

I'm just a newbie who returns immediately after each time travel mission. Ten missions might not even earn as much as one person earns in one go. It's not worth making enemies with a future big shot!

Therefore, we must immediately find a way to ease the tension!

The leader's mind raced as he considered how many Destiny Points to spend, while his hot-tempered underling rolled up his sleeves and strode towards Xiao Miao: "You little brat, are you tired of living? How dare you..."

"Duang!!!"

A stainless steel basin fell from the sky and hit my younger brother hard on the head. The damage wasn't great, but the sound was extremely loud. My younger brother's psychological trauma was far greater than his physical trauma.

In layman's terms: It gave him a huge fright!

"Who the hell attacked me?!"

The younger brother, clutching his buzzing head, turned around and roared. He first saw the dented stainless steel basin in the middle, then his gaze moved upwards to his boss's arm.

"Boss?!

"Shut up, you're my boss!" The boss glared fiercely at his underling, then switched to a fawning smile, bowing and scraping as he walked up to Xiao Miao.

"Sir, I'm so sorry, we didn't expect you to come back alive, no... I mean we didn't expect you to be so amazing... no, I uh... you..."

The eldest brother stammered for a long time, unable to find a way to explain. The main reason was that the raid was already in its final stages, and any explanation would seem weak and ineffective.

Finally, the eldest brother knelt down on the ground, dejected: "Sir, how much compensation do you want? Let's discuss a price."

The three henchmen behind him stared wide-eyed, looking completely dumbfounded.

Seeing their boss so obsequious for the first time, they felt a mixture of contempt and admiration, even though they secretly despised him.

No wonder he's a leader!

Xiao Miao was satisfied with the other party's attitude and found a three-legged stool to sit down: "Don't worry, I'm not some kind of demon. Since you've admitted your mistake, I won't ask for an exorbitant price. How about this, a fixed price of 3000 Destiny Points, and we'll call it even."

The leader retorted, "Then you might as well kill me. 3000 fate points—even if you sold all four of us, we wouldn't be worth that much."

Xiao Miao crossed her arms and said, "You can bargain."

The eldest son cautiously probed, "How about... 300?"

"Duang!"

Xiao Miao tossed the stainless steel basin aside: "This joke isn't funny."

Boss: "..."

After some back and forth, the leader of the Carrion Gang finally transferred 1000 Fate Points and left 50,000 Shanghai Dollars before slinking away with his underlings.

The house was a mess, with all the valuables collected and piled up by the Carrion Gang, which saved Xiao Miao the time of cleaning.

The structure of Shanghai City is not complicated. It radiates outward from the City Lord's Mansion, forming a total of 20 rings.

The stronger one's power, the closer one's residence is to the center, and the better the environment and supporting facilities. It is said that there are other hidden benefits, but Xiao Miao has no way of knowing.

He was an orphan, without the care of active Skywalkers, and could only live in the 18th to 20th rings.

Now that Xiao Miao has successfully completed his first journey through the heavens, the situation is completely different. He estimates that he can at least live in the 16th or even 15th ring.

Xiao Miao had no attachment to the dirty and chaotic shantytown. He stuffed his valuables into his backpack, stood at the door, and took one last look at his small home where he had lived for so long, as if saying goodbye to his pre-18-year-old self.

Taking a deep breath, Xiao Miao pushed open the door and stepped out of the dilapidated hut. The bright sunlight streamed into the room, illuminating the path ahead.

............

At the shantytown bus stop, Xiao Miao is waiting for the bus to the inner ring road.

The sun blazed overhead, hovering in the eastern sky.

In the west, four moons shine brightly together.

That's right, there are four moons in this world. Only one of them is the original celestial body of the main world, while the other three are channels formed by the intersection of the other three worlds and the main world!

About 200 years ago, the four worlds came together, and powerful gods and demons descended, causing great changes to the world.

On the same day, all humans in the main world simultaneously activated their system panels and became Travelers of the Heavens. Over the next two hundred years, the main world gradually evolved into its current state.

Gods and demons have vanished from the world, and even the powerful celestial warriors are nowhere to be found.

As Xiao Miao pondered, the bus pulled into the station. He put in two Shanghai dollars, sat in the back, and opened the window.

The car smelled bad, and there were several suspicious vomits on the floor. Considering that this is the 18th Ring Road, it's good enough that there's a bus to take.

In Xiao Miao's view, the leadership of Shanghai City has a rather laissez-faire attitude, with a very low presence in other areas except for the core area from the 1st to the 5th ring road.

Instead, numerous societies, large and small, were formed, drawing in Skywalkers to maintain order.

After one transfer, Xiao Miao arrived at the 15th Ring Road, intending to go to the government office to pay off her loan, but changed her mind at the station.

At the station, there was a middle-aged couple with a child. The woman planned to have her son, who had just completed his first pilgrimage to the heavens, join her society to repay the government loan. The man disagreed, feeling that his son was better suited to a better society.

Xiao Miao listened intently and decided to follow the couple.

This is a classic example of information asymmetry.

Just as a businessman's child will go into business, and a politician's child will go into politics, it's not about being born into nobility by bloodline. Ultimately, it's about parents teaching their children things that ordinary people can't learn.

Of course, the situation where the next generation is an idiot is another matter.

After three more transfers and paying to pass through a security checkpoint, Xiao Miao followed the family of three to the Talent Plaza located on the 11th Ring Road.

The square is enormous, stretching as far as the eye can see, and is surrounded by countless stalls, all of which are recruitment points for various societies.

Blood Axe Society, Jiahao Society, Zhutian Society, Swordsman Society... these are relatively respectable societies.

There are also some less serious ones, such as: "Are you going to socialize today?", "Are you going to socialize or not?", "I'm a little embarrassed to socialize", etc.

Xiao Miao also saw recruitment points from three other worlds: the Joyful Sect of the Moonlit Realm, the Holy Light Church of the Gods and Demons Realm, and the Commander Academy of the Astral Realm.

The longest queues were at these three faction locations, and they were all young people under 18; anyone over 18 was not accepted.

This trip was definitely the right one!

Besides the three factions, the longest queue was in front of the Jade River Society. Xiao Miao stayed at the end of the queue, keeping an eye on everything around him and listening to a lot of useful information.

It turns out that various associations have partnerships with the government, and one of the benefits of joining an association is that it can reduce or waive loan repayments!

The more powerful the guild, the greater the reduction in fees, as well as many other benefits, a wide variety of things, such as the guild's internal database of information on all realms.

The journey through the heavens takes place every 15 days. Everyone here is a newcomer who has just completed one mission, while some have completed two journeys and are looked down upon as "old fogies" by many people in line.

While Yujiang Society doesn't offer the best benefits, it has the most lenient requirements, with virtually no mandatory requirements, making it exceptionally popular.

Everyone wants to get something for free!

The team moved forward quickly, and the closer they got to the recruitment point of Yujiang Society, the more Xiao Miao could feel a gaze scrutinizing him.

Following the direction of his gaze, he discovered that the source was the recruitment point of Yujiang Society. There were many staff members inside the point, and he couldn't tell which one it was.

Soon it was Xiao Miao's turn for the interview. The young female interviewer's eyes lit up when she saw Xiao Miao, and she was clearly much more pleased: "Please show us your talent panel."

This was the standard procedure, and Xiao Miao had no objections. He opened the panel and selected [Talent: Endurance (Green)] to display it.

The Magic Perception grade is too low, and the Fate Dice grade is too high; only the green Endurance talent is suitable for display.

"Oh? It's a green talent." The young female interviewer looked disappointed. "Our social card has blue talents, you don't..."

"You've been accepted."

A pleasant female voice interrupted the young woman's words. The interviewer turned around, looked at her, and stood up in surprise: "Ah, boss, you're here!"

The woman was completely covered up, with a mask on her face, practically screaming "I'm mysterious!"

Xiao Miao:ー`′ー

Woman, you were the one spying on me just now, weren't you!
