Chapter 783 Recruitment from Morning Embrace Church
Lu Chen was a little dissatisfied. What does it mean that I can speak? The way you look at me, you are obviously looking at a monster, right?
"Gentlemen, could you put down your weapons first? There are ladies here."
Lu Chen reminded aloud that Lu Lin had been pulled behind him at the moment when several people drew their swords. If this was not an urban area, the other party's hostile behavior might have led to their deaths.
Even the black-haired man at the head, as the strongest among these people, is about the same level as Lanis.
Although Lu Lin was scared by the scene in front of her, she still wanted to push forward to protect her brother.
As a result, she unexpectedly found that her brother's hand was surprisingly strong and it was difficult for her to break free. As a hard-working working woman, she had considerable strength, but her brother did not move at all.
After the black-haired man's expression changed for a while, he breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Lu Chen didn't move. He raised his hand to signal the others to put away their weapons.
"Sorry, we are too sensitive."
The man apologized first, then bowed and saluted again, "Hello, Mr. Lu Chen, I am Wang Tao, from Morning Support Church."
Lu Chen thought as expected, but did not say anything.
"Mr. Lu seems not surprised by our origins?"
Wang Tao saw that Lu Chen's expression did not change, and felt strange. Even if the other party regained consciousness, his memory probably only stayed in his youth. He should be surprised to hear their origins.
"It's nothing. I have seen your people before Chaos."
Lu Chen said calmly, leading Lu Lin to the door of the house. After opening the key, he invited: "Come in and talk."
Lu Chen's movements were very natural. Judging from his body movements, he looked like a hospitable gentleman.
But in the eyes of Wang Tao and others, it seemed like the devil was inviting them to hell, and that door was very permeable.
Wang Tao's mind turned around and he remembered his mission. In the end, he just increased his vigilance and said, "Wait for me outside."
The other four nodded silently. They were obviously a team that had been working together for a long time and had a tacit understanding.
Walking into the hall, Lu Lin was still a little dazed by the situation in front of her. She didn't know why people from Morning Support Church came to her door.
These men looked like kind-hearted clergymen, and they were clearly like a killing organization of the army!
"Sister, please go make tea and I'll have a chat with this gentleman."
Lu Chen was very calm. When he saw Wang Tao taking out his weapon, he thought he was coming to silence him, but it didn't look like he was here, so he could have a chat so that he could get more information about the world.
Lu Lin felt that her younger brother was very strange today. How could he suddenly become so mature and stable? Rather, she had been wondering recently. His younger brother's cognitive ability didn't look like that of a ten-year-old child at all.
It's like there really is a twenty-year-old mature soul inside him, and he is a reliable adult male.
But she was only slightly confused. It was a good thing that her brother was mature and steady. It would make it easier to find a wife in the future.
Otherwise, she thought that no woman could withstand a strong man who looked to be in his twenties and acted like a child in her arms...
Lu Lin went to make tea, while Wang Tao sat solemnly opposite Lu Chen.
Damn the prudishness, why should I be prudish! ?
Question marks appeared in Wang Tao's heart. He was obviously issuing instructions on behalf of the higher-ups. No matter how strange his past experience was, the man in front of him should humbly listen to the instructions in front of the Morning Embrace Church. But he was sitting here, looking across the way. The man actually found it harder to breathe than when facing the provincial archbishop.
Lu Chen sat on the sofa, leaning back slightly, with one hand on the armrest of the sofa, gently supporting the side of his face, "May I ask if Morning Support Church comes to see us siblings again after ten years? thing?"
The wording was "please ask", but Wang Tao felt like he was meeting a king.
The man's body unconsciously exuded inexplicable pressure, causing sweat to break out on his forehead.
He glanced at Lu Lin who was in the kitchen and whispered: "We are the night watchmen of Morning Embrace Church. We are here to invite Mr. and Miss Lu to the Morning Embrace Church district headquarters in Ocalan."
"For what?"
Lu Chen asked with interest.
"because……"
Having said this, Wang Tao was a little embarrassed to speak. He remembered the brief information he had read.
The man in front of him should have been a complete lunatic. In theory, it was not yet time for him to regain his senses, but he had become able to communicate normally.
And that pressure…
There is no mistake, he has truly become a transcendent.
But why does the Transcendent give people such a sinister feeling that it is difficult to approach?
"Archbishop Guerra, the provincial archbishop of Noah Province, believes that people like Mr. Lu should join the Morning Embrace Church instead of burying their talents locally."
Having said this, Wang Tao felt a strange power flash through his body, "Mr. Lu should understand what I'm talking about."
He is implying that everyone has extraordinary abilities.
"Sounds like a talent hunt...but why now?"
Lu Chen asked, the original owner and Lu Lin had been living hard in this remote city for ten years. If the church was interested, why did they only come now?
Wang Tao was a little hard to explain. After he learned from the intelligence where the siblings once lived, he judged that the life of the other brother was definitely very difficult.
Rather, when he knew that Lu Lin did not give up on his crazy brother and actually raised him for ten years, he was shocked inside.
Ask yourself, if he were in someone else's shoes, he would never be able to persist.
It was true that the church did not deal with the aftermath back then. Now that the most difficult period has passed, you are now pretending to be a good person?
"The inside story is complicated and I don't know it, but I hope Mr. Lu can cooperate with our work. The Archbishop will explain it to you when we get to Ocalan City."
Wang Tao was ordered to come here. He didn't know much about the game at the top. He only vaguely heard that there was another hidden reason for the divine disaster outside Ocalan ten years ago. Now someone wants to do something about this matter.
Lu Chen nodded, "So, you want me to join the Night Watch?"
Wang Tao was relieved when he saw that Lu Chen didn't press the issue and said, "According to the Archbishop's intention, he should want you to be trained within the Night Watch and become one of them."
Lu Chen thought for a moment, but he actually wasn't too interested in becoming a night watchman. Now he didn't even have a bite to eat in the dragon world compared to when he first entered the space. With his strength, he could do a lot of things if he wanted to mess around.
But joining the Night Watch might help further solve the mystery of the world. After thinking for a moment, he made a decision.
"What is the salary of a night watchman?"
Wang Tao was stunned when he heard what the other party said.
When he saw the man meditating, he felt the inexplicable pressure again, and he was already thinking about how to handle this mission after the other party refused.
Unexpectedly, the other party seemed to agree, and the first question he asked was about salary.
But Wang Tao still took a deep breath and explained: "The night watchmen belong to the clergy of the church. The weaving level of the grassroots night watchmen is the same as that of the official priests. They can get an exclusive villa in the provincial capital and a weekly subsidy of twelve Seven shillings for the pound.”
"What, you don't earn as much as us siblings from selling fish."
Lu Chen said calmly.
At present, the siblings' daily income is about three pounds, which is about twenty pounds per week, which is more than the priests of the church.
It has to be said that the business of selling fish without capital is very profitable.
Wang Tao opened his mouth, but he didn't expect that the other party would retort with this, "It can't be calculated like that. There is also a single-family villa that belongs to you."
"What!? A single-family villa in the provincial capital!?"
At this time, an exclamation rang out, and Lu Lin was walking over with two cups of tea. She was very surprised to hear this.
Prices in the provincial capital were of course different from those in Jinkelan City. If it was a small independent villa, the weekly rent would be between eight and ten pounds. If she wanted to buy it, the price would be astronomical as she could not imagine.
That's why she was fascinated to be a clergy before. If she were a formal priest, she would be assigned such a house. It was a gift from the goddess of morning embrace.
Although she did not hear the entire conversation between her younger brother and this person named Wang Tao, it seemed that she was inviting her younger brother to work at Morning Support Church, and was offering such generous benefits.
After she put down the tea cup, she leaned down and whispered in Lu Chen's ear: "Chenchen, how many years does it take to sell fish to buy a villa in the provincial capital..."
Lu Chen rolled his eyes, feeling that his sister lately was a bit obsessed with money.
He ignored his sister's whisper and motioned with his eyes to let her go upstairs first. Lu Lin puffed up her face in dissatisfaction and wanted to hit her stupid brother, but realized that no matter what, his brother was now an adult man, and he was still When talking to a guest, I should give him some face, so I did it obediently.
After Lu Lin left, Lu Chen retorted to Wang Tao: "That villa only belongs to me while I am alive, right?"
He had noticed it since that day when Lu Lin told him about the welfare benefits of the Morning Support Church. He didn't know what the situation was like with the priests, but most of the night watchmen had to fight against "weird" things.
In this case, it is normal for there to be casualties.
Villas distributed by the church will be taken back to the church after the death of the clergy, unless the children are also clergy of the church.
This condition alone lurks something very tricky.
Wang Tao was also a little embarrassed when Lu Chen said this. Looking at the current living conditions of the siblings, he really felt that the church's conditions were not generous enough.
The two siblings live in a small city with high incomes and no danger. No matter how you look at it, it is better than going to church and facing unknown dangers.
In fact... after we die, there will be a generous pension.
Wang Tao couldn't say anything like that. Damn it, why did the other party say that? I also feel that my current treatment is so bad!
"Mr. Lu, please understand that these are only the basic conditions for the night watchman. If you are not satisfied, you may be able to report it to the archbishop after arriving in the provincial capital."
After thinking about it, Wang Tao could only say this.
He just wanted to stabilize Lu Chen now, because the pressure emanating from Ruoyouruowu made him feel that even if the five senior night watchmen went together, they might not be Lu Chen's opponent.
And this is an urban area. If a fight breaks out, the aftermath will be troublesome. If the poor are hurt again, even if they win, they will be recorded with a major demerit.
Lu Chen picked up Lu Lin's new Pu'er tea and took a sip. "We just signed a contract on our house. If we move out, we will have to pay liquidated damages."
It's really not that he has become a carefree person, but that the salary paid by the church should definitely be considered "serious income" and can be used for equipment certification and exchange. As for the real benefits, he will naturally fight for them.
"In this regard, the church will provide corresponding subsidies and compensation to Mr. Lu and his brothers. As long as you are willing to go to the provincial capital, you can directly receive a settlement fee equivalent to six months of basic subsidies."
Wang Tao is good at tempting people. Regarding this aspect, it is not that he speaks freely, but that there have always been rules within the church.
Lu Chen nodded with satisfaction, "We can go to the provincial capital..."
"That's great!"
Wang Tao said excitedly, thinking that the task was finally completed.
"but……"
But the words Lu Chen spat out at the next moment made Wang Tao think again.
"Salary cannot be calculated like that. I will discuss it with Archbishop Guerra, whom I have never met."
Lu Chen's behavior and words at this time, strictly speaking, have seriously violated the image of the original owner, but he cannot always live like another person.
Everything can be explained away slowly by the divine disaster and those crazy experiences ten years ago.
"This is the right that Mr. Lu deserves, the right that a transcendent should have."
Wang Tao stood up and wanted to shake hands with Lu Chen.
Lu Chen was a little uncomfortable, but he still stood up and shook hands with the other party to express that the deal was concluded.
He noticed the key words. After talking about the small things, he wanted to learn about the things he was interested in, "The Transcendent?"
Wang Tao glanced upstairs and said, "Miss Lu should be just an ordinary person. According to the confidentiality regulations, we should not discuss these matters here. If Mr. Lu is interested in these matters, he will get the answer at the Morning Support Church District Headquarters."
He thought for a while, fearing that it was not safe, and asked again: "When can Mr. Lu leave at the earliest?"
Lu Chen smiled and said, "It'll be fine tomorrow."
It was time to leave this small town. He had a hunch that the main mission was about to appear.
"That would be great. We will wait outside for Mr. Lu tomorrow morning."
Wang Tao looked at the furnishings in the house and said, "As for the landlord, we will send someone to talk to him."
Lu Chen was very satisfied and saved himself the effort of negotiating.
"Then I won't disturb you today."
After Wang Tao finished speaking, he bowed and said goodbye.
When he walked out of the door, he felt that his back was already soaked. He waved to the other team members, "Close the team."
…………
"What!?"
Lu Lin exclaimed like she was screaming, "Are you going to move to the provincial capital!?"
Lu Chen calmly ate the fish for dinner, "Didn't my sister go to school in Ocalan City? You should be happy when you return there."
"But...but the contract for this house, if you break the contract, it will be a big sum."
Lu Lin felt worried about money again.
"The church said it would handle the matter. We won't have to pay the liquidated damages, and we can get a settlement allowance of seventy-six pounds and two shillings."
After Lu Chen said these words, the eyes of the older girl opposite turned from cloudy to clear.
