【Upgrade successful, your occupation ‘Intern Clerk’ has been upgraded from Level 0 to Level 1.】
【A clerk is the foundation of a company’s staff, responsible for tasks such as text processing, docunt organization, photocopying, answering phones, and handling daily office affairs. Therefore, a Level 1 Intern Clerk has a vast and enriched ntal world and works very efficiently. Your Spirit and Constitution attributes receive a slight boost.】
【As a clerk, it’s essential to understand the balance between work and rest. Overworking will make you lifeless and unable to complete regular tasks, leading to a decline in your Spirit attribute.】
【You have received
2 Spirit,
0.5 Constitution, and a New Career Skill: Slack Off.】
【Your Current Attributes are: Spirit · 9, Constitution · 9, Strength · 12, Agility · 10.5】
ng Xu: ?
The upgrade seed rather underwhelming.
It didn’t provide any imdiate boost to combat effectiveness.
However, one consolation was the significant increase of 2 points in Spirit, which was quite nice.
“I’m feeling more spirited than ever!”
Additionally, he gained a new career skill.
The na of this skill… ng Xu really liked it.
【Slack Off】
【Level: 1 (Unupgradable)】
【Description: Slack off at work to reduce the frequency of being noticed by your superior. When multiple people are present, others’ work progress will be prioritized over yours, allowing you to be ignored. (Passive skill can be actively canceled; will automatically re-enter this state upon returning to work.)】
“Hmm?”
ng Xu nodded slightly, lost in thought.
This skill seed to have interesting uses.
“But I don’t have any colleagues working with . Isn’t this skill triggered only during work?”
“If I’m the only one working, wouldn’t I still get noticed first?”
Wait…
Who said I don’t have colleagues?
Thinking of this, ng Xu suddenly directed his gaze toward the two zombies tied outside the door and couldn’t help but nod in satisfaction.
Great, great.
I almost forgot about you two.
Chi Wei doesn’t count as a colleague since she’s from a neighboring company.
But Manager Zhang is a genuine colleague!
With him around, no problem.
ng Xu felt very pleased, thinking that his future resource gathering had just beco a lot safer.
Besides, ng Xu took out his backpack and emptied the snacks inside, piling them in the corner of his office.
They were just so biscuits, jerkies, and other small snacks, but given the current situation, ng Xu was not picky about food.
The next step was to see if he could contact the outside world and find out what was going on.
ng Xu’s plan was well thought out, but soon a line of golden text flashed before his eyes.
【An employee’s task is to work diligently!】
【Triggered Daily Task: Work】
【Task Rewards: Related Career Experience, Points, and Cash. (Depending on work ti and progress)】
ng Xu: ?
What does this an—it’s the apocalypse, and I still have to work?
Huh?
Is there any justice or any sense of law in this?
Granted, ng Xu’s complaints wouldn’t change anything.
“Forget it. I might as well go to work. Even if there’s information from the outside world, it won’t stop
from working.”
With that thought, ng Xu reluctantly sat up straight and turned on his lagging computer. Staring at the screen with no network signal, he was bored and randomly opened a docunt, beginning to type away.
What was he typing?
Just so irrelevant information, since his work as an intern clerk mainly involved inputting data related to various enterprises.
The clicking sound of the keyboard echoed as ng Xu typed away.
However, very soon he lost the desire to work and instead opened a few single-player gas and started playing.
Minesweeper, Spider Solitaire…
These simple gas from his computer class are surprisingly entertaining now.
ng Xu couldn’t help but nod in appreciation for these little gas.
As ti passed, suddenly a ‘ding’ sounded, and another line of golden text appeared before ng Xu.
【End of a workday, you’ve worked hard today! Now it’s ti to clock out and finish your shift! Because of your diligent work today, you have earned Yuan
1000 and Point
1 . Keep it up, and make your life even better!】
【Triggered Task: Clock Out】
【Task Rewards: Career Experience for Intern Clerk
1, Points
5, Yuan
5000.】
Seeing this task, ng Xu suddenly realized that it was already 5:30 p.m.
“What a torturous and exhausting day.”
ng Xu quickly got up and walked over to the ti clock by the door to punch out.
“Clock-out successful!”
With the notification of a successful clock-out, ng Xu calmly returned to his office.
He had successfully received the experience points, points, and cash for clocking out and working overti.
Suddenly, a large pile of red bills appeared in front of ng Xu.
Including the previous 100,000 and 5,000, ng Xu now had 110,000 yuan.
What use are these things?
ng Xu’s expression was complex as he casually piled them to the side, not bothering much with them.
However, his points had now reached 6.
The points shop still had the sa items.
But in the corner, ng Xu suddenly discovered sothing notorious.
“What the heck, a points lottery?”
ng Xu was shocked; this felt all too familiar: “Is this a system from that notorious penguin company?”
Confronting the points lottery, ng Xu felt a deep-seated hatred.
He absolutely refused to touch it!
Especially with the lottery pool having categories like inferior, ordinary, excellent, and legendary.
Whether it’s 1 point per draw or 10 points for 10 draws, it feels the sa!
“Hmm?”
Suddenly, ng Xu noticed a loophole.
“Inferior lottery can be drawn with cash? Ten thousand yuan per draw?!”
ng Xu was astounded. He hadn’t expected cash could be used for the lottery.
Though ten thousand yuan per draw was exorbitant, at this stage, the ability to use cash for the lottery was the best news for ng Xu!
Especially since it was marked that the first ten draws guaranteed a special grand prize!
Now he couldn’t wait to see what’s the mysterious grand prize would be!
Thinking of this, ng Xu excitedly rubbed his hands together and, without hesitation, went for an inferior ten-draw.
【Drawing in progress…】
【Congratulations! You have won: Kang Shuaifu Instant Noodles X4, Ha Wawa Mineral Water X3, a high-end suit, a wrench X1, bodyguard-type personnel X1.】
ng Xu: !!!
The items at the beginning were useful but not urgent for ng Xu.
But what does this bodyguard-type personnel an?
【Bodyguard-type Personnel: Upon using this item, an experienced bodyguard will coincidentally appear within a three-kiloter radius centered on you. It is hoped that the host can hire them as soon as possible.】
“So, it’s just a talent available for hire, not soone with maximum loyalty from the start.”
ng Xu couldn’t help feeling a bit disappointed, but he quickly perked up again with excitent.
“Use it! Bring on the expert!”
Anyone surviving in an apocalypse knows that a base can only survive… well, with more experts around!
