Chapter 35: D-Rank Divine Relic Acquirer, Twin Skills Unlocked
Divine Relic Acquisitions Inc.!
What a fantastic organization, he had to get in!
Just hearing the name suggested ample opportunities to get up close and personal with Divine Relics—for Xueheng, that was like inviting a mouse into a rice jar.
Currently, the only known source of Divinity was through Divine Relics, so any chance to get closer to them was an opportunity not to be missed.
He didn't yet fully understand the capabilities of Divinity, but the Twin skill alone was enough to highlight its importance.
With more exposure to Divine Relics, who knew if he might activate one, or even multiple, Divinity skills in the future?
Damn, if he could acquire a body full of unreasonable Divinity skills like Twin, who in this world could stand against him?
"Hmm... I was planning to invite you to join us, and since you're also interested, that's even better." Wu Youqing was quite stunned for a while before she replied with a strange expression.
"So, where is your company located? I don't mean any harm, I'm just curious to take a look," Xuejing said, his face expressionless.
The girl rummaged through her bag as she spoke, "Our company headquarters isn't in Qingcheng... It's a bit far from here. I'll take you there another day."
Xuejing's eyes showed clear disappointment, and Wu Youqing smiled at his reaction, "Looks like you're really interested in Divine Relics, huh?"
"There's probably no one in this world who loves Divine Relics more than me right now," Xuejing sighed.
Hearing this, Wu Youqing nodded in satisfaction, "That's great. What our company needs most are employees like you."
She took out a document from her bag and pushed it towards Xuejing.
On the cover were five vertical words - 'Employment Agreement'.
Xuejing picked up the document and flipped through it.
It was a contract offering the position of 'Divine Relic Acquirer'.
The content wasn't too different from a standard labor contract, but it included additional confidentiality agreements, such as not disclosing the nature of his work, not revealing any research information related to acquired Divine Relics, and so on.
There were also sections on benefits and insurance, including compensation for injuries or death during the acquisition process...
"...Is this Acquirer role very dangerous?" Xuejing asked.
Wu Youqing nodded and then shook her head, "Divine Relics are categorized into D, C, B, and A ranks based on their level of danger."
"As a new recruit, you're a D-rank Acquirer, and the company will only assign you D-rank, or 'Harmless', Divine Relic acquisition tasks."
"For this level of Divine Relics, as long as you follow the specified steps for acquisition, there's basically no risk involved."
"If you grow and are promoted to C-rank, or 'Dangerous', or even B-rank, 'Highly Dangerous', then you'll be dealing with truly risky operations."
Xuejing understood, "I see... By the way, what about A-rank?"
"A-rank is 'Extremely Dangerous'. The level of harm that Divine Relics of this rank can cause is immeasurable. They could even affect an entire city, country, or have a global impact."
"You don't need to worry about A-rank Divine Relics for now. When one of that level appears, it's not something that an individual or a single company can handle. There are official agencies that will step in to deal with such situations." Wu Youqing explained.
Xuejing nodded, "One last question... Why did you choose me as an Acquirer? Just because I've encountered a Divine Relic before doesn't mean I'm qualified for this job. It's clear that this work requires specialized skills. Based on what criteria did you decide that I could become an Acquirer?"
Wu Youqing didn't know anything about him—she didn't know about his panel, his martial arts training, or how powerful he would become. It was a bit odd that she wanted to recruit him solely because he had once come into contact with a Divine Relic.
Seeing no reaction from the Charm technique on the panel, it was clear that the other party was not swayed by his looks.
Upon hearing Xuejing's words, Wu Youqing's beautiful eyes revealed a hint of a smile. "You got one thing wrong," she said softly. "It's not that 'you came into contact with a Divine Relic', but that 'a Divine Relic came into contact with you'."
Xuejing's eyes flickered with realization. "You mean..."
"Over the years, through our research on Divine Relics, we've deduced that they seem to possess a certain level of 'sentient will'," Wu Youqing explained, caressing the GOD-1567. "They... actively seek out those who attract them."
"These Divine Relics may very well possess the power to influence fate. You thought it was a coincidence that you encountered a Divine Relic, but perhaps... it wasn't a coincidence at all. It's not that you found the Divine Relic, but that the Divine Relic found you," she emphasized.
"People who can attract Divine Relics are extremely rare. In fact, just by having you in our company, we might greatly increase our chances of encountering them."
"I am one such person, and it's because of this unique trait that I eventually became the CEO of this company."
"Perhaps... even our encounter here was influenced by the will of the Divine Relics." Wu Youqing smiled.
"Now you understand why I want you to join our company as an Acquirer, don't you?"
Xuejing finally understood. So that was it...
No wonder the salary was so generous.
Xuejing glanced at the monthly salary of 200,000 yuan on the agreement, as well as the various bonus incentives for successfully acquiring Divine Relics.
"I don't care about the salary," Xuejing said sincerely. "I love Divine Relics, and I'm willing to join your company, big sister."
...
After signing the employment agreement with Wu Youqing and exchanging contact information, Xuejing bid her farewell and left the library. He headed to the comprehensive building of the affiliated high school and asked for leave from his class teacher, Du Shiwei, before hurrying home.
As soon as he entered the house, he made his way to the 'gym', sat cross-legged in the center of the room, and opened the panel.
[Twin Lv1 (Divinity Required to Upgrade: 502/1000)]
[Passive: Possess two lives. After death, you can freely choose the time of resurrection within seven days. Cooldown: Three months]
[Active: Unlocked (Unlock Condition: Divinity 502/500, Currently Unlockable)]
[Divine Incarnation: Unlocked (Unlock Condition: Divinity 502/2000, Level Reached Lv10)]
Xuejing took a deep breath and clicked to unlock the active effect.
[Unlocked]
[Active: For each level of Twin, you can specify one ability related to your physical body, which will produce a doubled effect when used]
[Currently selectable: Physical Strength, Physical Defense, Movement Speed, Reaction Speed, Calculation Ability, Concentration, Memory...]
There were dozens, if not hundreds, of options listed, but Xuejing didn't examine them closely.
"Specify one ability... and it will have a doubled effect?" Xuejing stroked his chin. "So, if I choose 'Physical Strength', I will have double my strength when using Twin?"
It was a bit tricky.
This ability seemed powerful, but at the same time, it didn't quite live up to the incredible passive effect of Twin.
Was there something he was missing? Xuejing fell into deep thought.
"What should I choose for my first ability?"
...
