Daily Summary: I'm a CEO in a Bizarre World

"Tomorrow morning at 8 a.m., go to the 'Group Buying' branch building in the Fortune District to complete the onboarding procedures."

Ye Lin handed the job offer to Mai Xing with a complicated expression.

She was still bothered by the unexpectedly fast release speed of the purification light from the other party.

Could it be a fake resume he submitted while pretending to be weak? If he really is just an ordinary person without the extraordinary sequence, then his talent and potential are definitely at the genius level.

If you join our Housekeeping Department 2, you'll probably be assigned to either the top-performing Group 1 or Group 4.

Ha, why am I thinking about these things? It's not something I should be thinking about.

I successfully recruited a new person, and my task is complete. I can finally leave this awful place and catch up on the performance targets I fell behind on today.

The thought of going to Shangzhong soon instantly dispelled Ye Lin's gloom.

She handed Mai Xing a bottle of hand sanitizer with a "group buying" logo on it, saying:

"Even with the protective power of the sealant, applying it to areas that have come into contact with contaminants carries the risk of further contamination and damage, so caution is advised."

"Thanks."

Mai Xing let out a long sigh of relief, finally overcoming the intense emptiness in her body and mind.

Each sealed item has its own "cost of use," and after the usage period ends, the cost will be settled.

[Cost: Forces you into a state of nothingness upon use; duration is affected by the duration of use]

While the price of "The Bride on the Right" is bizarre, at least it is harmless to the human body.

Some sealing artifacts are incredibly powerful, but come at a terrible price; frequent use can cause irreversible damage to the human body.

Mai Xing carefully applied the disinfectant to his entire right arm.

It has no taste and feels cool.

Under Ye Lin's bewildered gaze as she reached for her hand back, he casually stuffed the disinfectant into his pocket.

Upon receiving the job offer, Mai Xing quickly said goodbye to Ye Lin and found a secluded corner to check on the reward he had just received.

With a thought, the text on the panel appeared before my eyes:

[The Divine Path: Oxen and Horses]

[Sequence Top: Sequence 0 - Lord of the Ox and Horse]

[Current Status: Sequence 9 - Intern]

[Extraordinary Ability: (Hardworking and Persevering) The influence of sealed artifacts/contaminants is materialized into a numerical value. Every use will increase it, and reaching the maximum value will further enhance the influence.]

[Promotion Requirements: (Sequence 8 - Assistant) 6 sealed items/contaminants reach the initial impact stage]

[President, please note that the Ox and Horse Path is exclusive and private, not controlled by the eight righteous gods of this world, and has been maliciously labeled as an evil god's path. Before becoming a high-sequence transcendent being, President, please be sure to conceal the power of this path to avoid attracting danger.]

I have finally become a transcendent being, and a Sequence 9 with a divine pathway.

Mai Xing was both surprised and moved at that moment.

Each use of extraordinary power consumes one's own spiritual energy. Those who have attained extraordinary abilities have a much longer mana bar than those who haven't, giving them an advantage in both the amount of power they can use at once and their overall endurance.

The most valuable gain is the ability to be hardworking and persevering, which comes from the "ox and horse" path.

For ordinary sealed artifacts to increase their influence, they must continuously gain insights and accumulate influence through hundreds or thousands of uses in order to achieve the sublimation of rank advancement.

Even for those who are not part of the extraordinary path, advancement through the ranks is a long process that tests both talent and effort.

The "Hardworking and Persevering" skill omits the most difficult part; as long as it's used enough times, it can increase influence. With increased influence, the sealed artifact's abilities will be further enhanced.

Just give me "Heaven rewards diligence, one certificate is eternal" and that's it, right?

Mai Xing couldn't help but complain.

The condition for advancing to Sequence 8 is to upgrade 6 sealed items to the [Initial Influence] state.

[Initial Effect] is the first stage of the sealed object's influence on the human body, and it is also a necessary condition for becoming [Non-Pathway Sequence 9].

This is followed by the [moderate influence] corresponding to sequence 8, and the [complete assimilation] corresponding to sequence 7.

With the added bonus of "hard work and perseverance", Mai Xing believes that completing the advancement to Sequence 8 of the "Ox and Horse" path will not be difficult.

[Sealed item: "2-3214 The Bride on the Right"]

Impact: No impact (5/100)

I just used "Right Bride" once and gained 5 influence points. I need to use it 19 more times to reach [Initial Influence].

However, the path and sequence names are really hard to understand.

Is this really not just my dying fantasy?

If it's fake, please let me be Happy Superman on the panel.

Just as Mai Xing was rambling on, she unexpectedly saw her two close friends coming towards her.

Li Mao and Chen En were still worried about Mai Xing. On the way, they met Ye Lin, who was returning, and after asking her about the interview location, they found Mai Xing squatting in a corner checking the cheat update.

Li Mao came over and started groping Mai Xing's body with both hands, while Chen En even lifted up his clothes.

"Hey, hey, hey, I may be poor, but I don't sell my private parts!"

Mai Xing said in horror.

"There are no wounds on his body."

"He is also mentally and consciously clear-headed."

After confirming that Mai Xing was in good condition, the two breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's okay, job interviews are just a normal thing. I'll accompany you to find a better job."

"Yes, large companies like 'group buying' are not something that graduates like us, who don't even have extraordinary connections, can get our hands on."

When the two friends saw that Mai Xing had been squatting in the corner, they assumed he was devastated by his failed interview and began to comfort him.

"I passed the interview and will start work tomorrow."

Mai Xing told the truth.

"No, you really want to be a domestic worker? That's no easy job!"

"Exactly, and weren't you the one most afraid of being in contact with pollution? Being a domestic worker means dealing with pollution every day."

The change in their old friend further confirmed their suspicions.

Could they really have been bewitched by an evil god?

Damn evil god, give me back my brother!

But Mai Xing sighed and said, "As you all know, my sanity is already below the safety threshold. If I don't find a stable income soon, I'm afraid I'll die from various supernatural attacks sooner than being corrupted and eroded in the future, or I'll be bewitched by evil gods and go mad and fall into depravity."

As he spoke, Mai Xing showed the two of them his "Rationality Treasure" app balance.

[Rationality Balance: 54.52]

In the society built by the eight righteous gods, human spiritual reasoning is personified as numerical values.

From major purchases like houses and cars to everyday necessities, everything is done with reason.

At that moment, a pop-up appeared in the middle of the screen with bold, bright red text that made even Li Mao and Chen En feel anxious.

[Warning! If your current sanity balance is below 60% of the maximum, the following extraordinary incident may occur:]

1. Increased probability of encountering malign supernatural events;

2. They are more susceptible to the seductive words of evil gods, and may even attract the attention of evil gods.

3. They are more likely to be attracted to and come into contact with those who transcend through the path of evil gods.

For your personal safety, please restore your sanity to a safe level as soon as possible.

The sanity limit for mortals is 100 points, which can be increased after becoming a superhuman and obtaining a sequence.

As one advances through the ranks, their sanity cap also increases, meaning that the higher the rank of an extraordinary individual, the more assets they have at their disposal.

However, let's take a mortal with 100 points of rationality as an example.

Not all rationality can be used.

When one's sanity falls below 80% of its maximum, the body will experience varying degrees of weakness and illness.

The severe headaches and tinnitus that Mai Xing experienced when using the sealed artifact stemmed from this.

Once the percentage drops below 60%, the probability of encountering malign supernatural events and being targeted by evil gods will increase.

Therefore, 60% of the rationality limit is the extraordinary safety boundary for humanity.

Those who remain in a state of low rationality for a long time will eventually be attacked and killed by pollutants, or fall into madness under the influence of evil gods.

Due to long-term financial difficulties, the original owner's sanity had fallen below the safe threshold of 60%.

If there is no income and sanity drops below the maximum of 50%, even with the panel cheat, MaiXing cannot guarantee that he can still survive.

Li Mao and the other man understood Mai Xing's predicament and could only sigh.

"This world of ditch."

"that is."
