Light Spring Murmur
Chapter 31: Joining the Organization
If it weren't for archeology, he wouldn't have died and left a psychological scar.
Originally... it started like this.
However, what the other person said made Shi Yu a little concerned.
To possess the ability to listen to the sounds of history... apparently, there were only 11 people in the entire Dong Huang Ancient Kingdom, including himself?
Even rarer than a legendary Beast Tamer, rarer than a totem guardian?
He looked at Eleven behind the tree, not expecting that the national treasure was himself.
But why is it Eleven again? Why is he so connected with the number eleven?
Shi Yu temporarily put aside the useless thoughts. What he was thinking about was that since he was so rare, then theoretically, if he joined this organization, wouldn't the treatment be very good?
Now that he was exposed, and they came to his door with a sincere invitation, he could only learn more about it.
"Then the place you want to invite me to join... where is it?"
"What are the benefits like?"
Shi Yu was silent for a moment, then tentatively asked.
Lu Qingyi smiled charmingly and said, "The benefits are naturally very good, even better than what you would get if you became a legendary-level Beast Tamer."
"Basically, once you become a formal member of the organization, your status will be above that of a legendary Beast Tamer."
"If you want to explore some ruins, it's not impossible to apply for huge amounts of resources and find legendary Beast Tamers as bodyguards."
Shi Yu slightly opened his mouth.
The Beast Tamer Association president of Bingyuan City was only a top master, not yet at the legendary level.
Legendary level meant they could tame Overlord-level creatures, a super level that basically held important positions in first-tier cities!
Was the place that wanted to invite him so amazing?
That's right... after all, according to them, those who possess this talent are all top talents.
Even the mystic realm he accidentally summoned as a novice had such great value, not to mention the skills of those professionals.
Listening to it like this... joining doesn't seem like a loss?
It's good to have an organization to rely on, a direct head start.
"The Past Life I Was Killed by Archeology, and This Life I Rise Again from Archeology?"
Shi Yu was slightly tempted, because they were offering too much.
Directly transforming from a pre-professional, debt-ridden little Beast Tamer into a legendary figure sounded very tempting.
"If I join, what obligations do I need to fulfill?"
"Almost none. The organization's structure is very simple, everyone's actions are very free, the tasks are also freely chosen, and there's no coercion."
Lu Qingyi looked at the sky. Although that's what she said, which Beast Tamer with such talent would be idle?
Whenever new information about mythical ruins appeared, those who could listen to the sounds of history would definitely be the first to rush up, assisting in exploration or becoming exploration leaders.
After all, normal people wouldn't awaken this special ability.
"None??"
Shi Yu was stunned. So lenient?
In other words, as long as he could control himself and not court death, even after joining, he wouldn't have to go to dangerous places to carry out tasks?
On the contrary, if he occasionally wanted to court death and had needs, he could apply for a large batch of resources, bodyguards, and information?
Shi Yu was slightly tempted again.
"So, what's the name of the organization?"
"The National Land Ruins Strategic Investigation and Support Bureau, also known as Bureau Eleven according to the numbering. You can understand that the personnel of this organization are special forces in the archeological world, and the organization is a special department dedicated to handling various important ruins."
Eleven again!
Shi Yu was already used to it. The name didn't matter.
After Lu Qingyi finished speaking, Shi Yu fell into deep thought. The organization's name sounded pretty high-end, so, should he join?
After asking so much, and since they'd come to his door and he had such a special talent, it seemed difficult to resolve the situation without joining.
"In that case, I'll join."
In the end, Shi Yu let out a long breath. Joining wasn't a big deal!
Since there were no restrictions on freedom, in the end, whether he courted death or not depended on himself, as long as he was steady.
He wouldn't admit that he wanted to return to his old job.
"Dr. Lu, are you also a member of Bureau Eleven?"
"Yes, currently, including you and me, there are eleven people in Bureau Eleven."
"Welcome to join. From today onwards, you're a probationary member of Bureau Eleven."
Lu Qingyi smiled for the second time, seemingly very satisfied with Shi Yu's answer.
There were too few talents in this area. Every time she explored ruins, she felt like she didn't have enough manpower.
And now, with a newcomer she had personally unearthed, Lu Qingyi felt that when Shi Yu grew up in the future, she would have a useful tool.
As the least experienced in Bureau Eleven, she also wanted a tool she could use, instead of running errands for her teacher and being a tool herself every day.
"Probationary??" On the other side, after Lu Qingyi finished speaking, Shi Yu suddenly felt like he'd been tricked.
She'd been talking for so long, but it seemed the benefits were all for official members.
"Yes, probationary. Every new member joining Bureau Eleven has to undergo an assessment. Only after passing the assessment can they become an official member."
"I..." Shi Yu regretted it. However, what she said next made Shi Yu nod immediately.
"In addition, your strength and ability are currently too weak. The organization will provide you with a starting fund of 10 million. Your primary task is to grow quickly, at least to become a professional Beast Tamer, and to receive systematic archaeological knowledge."
"No problem, I guarantee to complete the task."
"When can the funds be credited to my account?"
Compared to benefits like a legendary Beast Tamer bodyguard, 10 million in cash was obviously more tempting to Shi Yu at the moment.
With this money, why would he still cultivate a Green Silkworm?
Worm, goodbye, you're free!
"Tomorrow," Lu Qingyi said.
"Tomorrow, your credentials and funds will be in place. However, unless there are special circumstances, I suggest you don't casually reveal your identity as a member of Bureau Eleven."
"Otherwise, some foreign intelligence agents will annoy you to death."
"By the way, currently, only Bureau Eleven knows about the incident regarding the ruins descending in Pingcheng District that is related to you."
"Next, before you become an official member, I'll be your liaison with the organization. That's all I have to say."
Shi Yu nodded, rest assured, he wasn't a high-profile person.
Only eleven people in the whole country possessed this talent... as an important talent capable of cracking the secrets of the ruins, he would definitely be easily targeted, especially since he was so weak.
"I forgot to say the most important thing. Your assessment task is to investigate the historical truth of Bingyuan City."
"There's no time limit. After you succeed, you can become an official member. I explored the Ice Dragon Ruins in the snowy mountains before, but I couldn't crack the mechanisms due to a lack of key information. This time, new Bingyuan ruins have appeared because of you, and you may be the one who ultimately breaks the deadlock."
Even with the talent to listen to the sounds of history, not everything could be heard. A certain "opportunity" was needed to hear traces of history.
Lu Qingyi herself had failed, but Shi Yu had succeeded.
Lu Qingyi understood after investigation that Shi Yu was a native of Bingyuan, so it was normal for him to be able to hear the sounds.
Shi Yu's desire for the truth of Bingyuan was definitely deeper than hers. This assessment task was almost tailor-made for Shi Yu.
"Let me investigate the historical truth of Bingyuan City?" Shi Yu said, "But can I access the newly descended mystic realm???"
"Yes, this mystic realm is a special type of ruins. Even if you don't use your Bureau Eleven member identity, you have a high probability of entering. As for what to do next, that's part of your assessment."
Lu Qingyi said, "Finally, as your recommender, let me give you a gift on behalf of myself."
In order to allow Shi Yu to grow quickly and become her assistant, she planned to pay his salary in advance.
"I don't think you need money for the time being. So, a skill manual that the Iron-eating Beast can use, a special evolution method for the Green Silkworm, a high-species pet cub, what do you want?"
