Chapter 55 - Assassin Application Task
THE Luo brothers went inside the Class Bureau together. Luo Jin's little face was still scrunched up, as if he had eaten a sour fruit and a bitter gourd at the same time. Luo Yan found it funny and took a screen shot of him. It's a good material to send to his father and older brother.
"Why is Ah Jin still sulking?" he asked.
"That guy is shady. Yan, don't believe anything he says. He definitely has some kind of ulterior motive for approaching you."
Just thinking of that guy getting close to his second brother with that kind of thought, Luo Jin felt unbearable. So he must protect Luo Yan. There would definitely be more pest like that wanting to get close to his second brother in future. He was sure about that. After all, his brother looked so good, how could they not? But with his brother being so soft, he would definitely not have any guard against those kinds of people. So, that's where he should come in.
At this point, Luo Jin probably already forgotten the fierce battle at the Arena yesterday where his 'soft' second brother won easily. Clearly, his bro-con filter was already at the highest level.
Luo Yan, on the other hand, only felt amused. "Why does Ah Jin think that?"
"Stop asking so many questions," Luo Jin said dismissively but his little face said clearly that 'it's because you look too good'.
Luo Yan could only chuckle. "Yes."
Because Luo Jin mentioned Shen Ji Yun, the young man's face immediately flashed inside his mind. Unlike his brother, the thought of Shen Ji Yun having an ulterior motive never crossed his mind. Just remembering the guy's cold face that didn't seem to know how to make any expressions, Luo Yan couldn't help but refute that idea.
Shen Ji Yun was clearly the type that didn't have much interactions with others. Not because others didn't want to approach him, on the contrary, many people probably wanted to, but because he didn't want to interact with others himself. Just by his temperament alone, he would definitely not be the kind of person who would have messy thoughts for someone he just saw once or twice. He's just too cold for that.
Although Luo Yan had great confidence in his appearance, he would not be so egotistical that he would think that every person he met would like him in that regard. Especially someone like Shen Ji Yun who probably had a facial paralysis.
Leaving those thoughts behind, he looked around the first floor of the Class Bureau. There were three female NPCs serving as receptionists. It looked like an ordinary office lobby. Only that there was a huge screen floating at the very middle. The details on how to apply for a class were clearly written there.
Step 1: Please, go to the second floor and go to the room designated for the class you wanted to apply in.
Step 2: Inside the designated room, a master of the class you've chose would be waiting for you. Accept the task they would give.
Step 3: Successfully finished the task according to the master's requirements and you they would approve of your application.
It was almost the same as the PC version so Luo Yan was not that surprised.
"So simple?" Luo Jin commented while looking up at the big floating screen.
"The task would probably be not that simple," Luo Yan said then looked down at his brother. "Should we go upstairs?"
"Go."
The two walked towards the stairs and climbed to the second floor. When they reached it, they saw ten rooms line up in a semi-circle. There weren't anyone there but the two of them. On top of each doors, the eight classes' names were written, as well as the other two special classes. The designated room for the Assassin class was on the third door to the left while the one for Gunslingers was on the second one on the right.
Luo Yan looked at Luo Jin. "Ah Jin, goodluck!"
Luo Jin only snorted. "Who needs luck?" But when he turned around to walk towards the Gunslinger room, a smile crossed his lips.
Luo Yan could only helplessly smile and then he too walked towards the Assassin room. He opened the door and entered. Inside, he saw a male NPC covered in all black. He was standing silently at the corner. His presence was almost insignificant. If there were a lot of people inside this room right now, he would definitely go unnoticed. On top of his head were the word [Master Assassin].
"I'm here to apply to become an assassin," Luo Yan started.
The Master Assassin opened his eyes and turned to him. Then he snapped his fingers and a screen appeared in front of Luo Yan. It had a [Select Task] button at the very middle of it. "Press the button to know what task you'll have to do."
Luo Yan did as he was told. He pressed the button and a shuffling or words appeared on the screen until it stopped. He read what's writted on it;
[Kill the real master of Ivy Grove Manor without anyone seeing you. Finish this task before the time limit of three hours and you'll successfully enter the ranks of the powerful assassins in Arcadia. If you managed to finish this at the fastest speed, a good reward is waiting for you. Good luck!]
Before he could analyze the task, he saw the Master Assassin snapping his fingers again. Then he just felt that he was pulled inside a vacuum. And he just knew that the blasted NPC teleported him to somewhere.
