"I want... twenty teleportation talismans and one outer perimeter map for the Ancient Battlefield!"
Zhang Chen spent 13,000.
Before even getting started, his money was reduced to 17,000.
He had to be frugal!
With a Level 6 combat certificate, he could only accept corpse-retrieval missions in the outer perimeter of the Ancient Battlefield.
Even if you wanted to accept missions for the middle sections of the Ancient Battlefield, most people wouldn't dare.
After all, the purpose of signing corpse retrievers was to rescue themselves, not to drag someone over to die with them.
"Brother, where did you work before?"
A man with a Level 5 combat certificate next to him, smiling broadly, initiated a conversation.
At this moment, Zhang Chen appeared as a forty-year-old man in the eyes of others, which was why they were so polite.
Age represented experience, and this world still paid great attention to the etiquette of respect for elders and hierarchy.
"I worked in Canyang City!"
Zhang Chen said casually.
After all, Canyang City was the only place he knew, and it happened to be a place he had visited.
"Oh, Canyang City. I heard that place is sealed off by people from the Spiritual Power Association!"
"But it's good you're here. There are many girls here, and many university girls who go to the Ancient Battlefield without knowing the immensity of heaven and earth, and in the end, they all have to be carried back by us!"
"If you encounter someone who directly faints, you can occasionally take advantage of them!"
The man said with a lewd grin.
"Oh!"
Zhang Chen remained silent.
As long as he took off his mask and returned to school, there would be a crowd of girls surrounding him, afraid he wouldn't take advantage of them.
Taking advantage? He didn't care about such things.
Soon, it was time for business, and the crowd in front of the corpse retrievers grew.
Adventurers of all sorts, as well as university students, were sizing up the combat level certificates and prices of the corpse retrievers.
At this moment, a red-haired girl, with a figure as scorching as a world-famous supermodel, wearing a tight leather armor and carrying a conspicuous Flame Dragon Sword, slowly walked over.
Many male corpse retrievers, upon seeing such a girl, had their eyes light up. Their gazes were involuntarily drawn to the girl's sexy figure, charming face, and long, straight legs.
Who wouldn't want to sign a contract with such a girl?
What if this girl fainted in battle... the thought alone was thrilling.
"A bunch of shameless scoundrels!"
Katerina frowned.
Although corpse retrievers were an indispensable profession, it was not uncommon for many corpse retrievers to take advantage of their contracted clients when they fainted, or even to steal from them.
Therefore, the profession of corpse retriever had become one that was highly looked down upon.
High income, indispensable, but not worthy of respect.
Katerina suppressed her disgust and finally set her sights on Zhang Chen.
Among all the corpse retrievers, only Zhang Chen had not spared her more than a glance from beginning to end. He sat in his seat, lost in thought.
"Hey, you! How much?"
Katerina asked.
"Down payment of 30,000, retrieval fee of 170,000!"
Zhang Chen replied without lifting his eyelids.
"Deal!"
Katerina didn't waste any words. She immediately signed the contract on Zhang Chen's teleportation talisman and paid 30,000!
Seeing the income coming in, Zhang Chen finally looked up.
The moment he saw Katerina's blue eyes, he felt as if he had been electrocuted, and his whole body trembled.
"This familiar feeling again..."
Zhang Chen felt it was impolite to stare at the girl, so he quickly turned his head away.
On the other side, Katerina saw Zhang Chen as a forty-year-old uncle, so she naturally felt nothing.
After paying the money, she turned and left without lingering.
Soon, a group of girls from Phoenix Academy swarmed in.
They also signed contracts with Zhang Chen one after another, and before long, all twenty teleportation talismans were contracted.
"Earned six hundred thousand so easily?! This feels great!"
Zhang Chen smiled faintly.
Battles in the ruins were generally held during the day, so adventurers would sign contracts with corpse retrievers in the morning, allowing them as much time as possible for training.
Therefore, the working hours of corpse retrievers were limited to the hour of opening.
For the rest of the time, they were free to move about.
Unless someone needed corpse retrieval, it didn't matter if you slept at home all day.
"Being a corpse retriever is truly a leisurely job! But... I can't waste time! I need to keep earning money by fighting spirit cores!"
Zhang Chen bought a spirit bone ground beast, then carrying his backpack and accompanied by Mo Ran, headed towards the Ancient Battlefield.
