Calamity Dragon, Starting with the Cultivation of Knight Families

Chapter 28 The Middleman, the Rat King Hamster

Chapter 28 The Middleman, the Rat King Hamster
The small group was buzzing with activity.

However, suddenly, a player who had been lurking sent a message, which immediately silenced everyone for a while.

Can't see the moon: "Excuse me, are there any players in this group who haven't joined the Countermeasures Bureau yet?"

"If so, I have many channels. Currently, there are many financial groups in the Human Alliance Dark Web who are willing to pay far higher prices than the Countermeasures Bureau to hire players."

"Well, to put it this way, the starting salary is a million a year. If the game produces something extra later, most conglomerates are willing to give additional compensation if the player is willing."

"Of course, if everyone is worried about their personal safety and is unwilling to be employed by those tycoons, then please 'recognize' me."

"If you need anything later, feel free to message me privately. To put it simply, I'm prepared to act as a middleman, connecting players with conglomerates."

Broker? Middleman?

This thing actually appeared?!
There was a brief silence in the small group, but someone quickly caught on and replied:
Cheng Ge took off: "Damn, buddy? Sister? You're something else! Acting as a middleman, a middleman? Are you sure the Human Alliance's Countermeasures Bureau won't crack down on people like you? And these tycoons are already getting restless? Will the Human Alliance allow something like this to happen?"

"I don't know if the UNFTA is cracking down on the middleman industry, but where there is demand, there is a market."

"Furthermore, the Human Alliance is also composed of people. While conglomerates, large families, and large corporations cannot be too high-profile in hiring players right now, it is permitted within the rules. Otherwise, why would someone like me exist now? So, please rest assured, everything I am doing now is absolutely not illegal; at most, it is considered a gray industry."

Not Tea Guy: "Holy crap, 666! The power of capital is indeed strong."

Insomnia and Rain: "The gray industry benefits even high-ranking officials of the chaebol and the People's League, so it naturally has its value. At the same time, it's also quite good for some lone wolf players. However, I advise everyone that before the future of the real game is clear, even if you don't want to join the Countermeasures Bureau at this stage, you should never be easily hired by capital. In short, this is just my objective advice, and you can decide for yourself whether to listen to it or not."

"In addition, I suggest that you try not to reveal any of your real information, or even your character information, when chatting, so as to avoid some unnecessary trouble."

Wow! Frog: "Sister Yu is right, I agree!"

Not Tea Master: "+1, and, to say something I've wanted to say for a long time, if possible, our group could actually share information without revealing our real-world identities. Of course, if any brothers or sisters are close to each other in the game, they could even form an alliance to progress together. After all, I think for now, none of our characters should have any conflict of interest in the game."

"."

Lin Ke remained lurking and watching the entire process, feeling that the matter of middlemen and brokers was currently none of his business.

After all, Lin Ke is unlikely to join the Countermeasures Bureau or be employed by a zaibatsu at this stage.

Even if the real game produces additional tradable items in the future, Lin Ke has never intended to sell them.

The reason is simple: Lin Ke's desire for money is not that strong.

After all, Lin Ke didn't have a high level of consumption and disliked that kind of extravagant lifestyle.

Therefore, even though Lin Ke has been unemployed for a long time now, he can still support himself for a considerable period of time.

After all, his current two-bedroom apartment is still quite valuable in Chenxi City.

Not to mention that he also rented out one of the secondary bedrooms.

The rent for the second bedroom is 2,200 yuan per month, which is not expensive, but it is not cheap either.

As for his roommate, the tenant of the second bedroom, he has been away for several days now.

The tenant is a young outdoor livestreamer who loves to create entertaining content. Just four days ago, this guy said he was going to go camping in an uninhabited area and hadn't returned yet.

Therefore, as long as tenants and roommates are frugal, Lin Ke will not be short of money in the short term.

As for what Green Tea Bro said about players sharing information within the game world, Lin Ke has also considered it.

After all, this kind of thing has already been mentioned in some posts on game forums.

The elimination rate predicted by the players on the second day really shocked the other players, so sharing information with each other is definitely the best option.

After all, there shouldn't be any major conflicts among players of any race at present.

Therefore, players sharing information with each other is definitely beneficial to all players.

As for further alliances, that depends on whether there are conflicts of interest among the various factions or individuals.

In addition, and most importantly, the players who form an alliance must not be too far apart, otherwise it is not very meaningful.

It's not very meaningful at least for now, since everyone is a low-level player.

Information sharing is possible, but as for forming alliances, Lin Ke is not considering it for the time being.

After all, he now owns his own territory, and he's at the third tier.

Ultimately, the chances of other players being able to help him are too low; on the contrary, he has the ability to protect more low-level players.

But Lin Ke hadn't thought about that yet.

Doing good deeds is not easy, and you might even get into trouble if you're not careful.

He was self-aware; in fact, to put it another way, Lin Ke couldn't even say he was completely safe at this stage, since the location of his territory meant it couldn't always be peaceful. So, after thinking about this for a while, Lin Ke returned to his residence and logged out of the player forum.

It was already 11:30 a.m.

Lin Ke had already returned to the bedroom and immediately opened the custom-made pet carrier.

He then took out some mealworms and fed them to the two hamsters he had just bought the day before.

These two hamsters, one white and one gray, are only the size of a child's fist.

At this moment, Lin Ke casually picked up one of the white hamsters and placed it on the ground before standing up.

The white mouse, completely unaware of what Lin Ke was up to, was still happily eating a mealworm.

The next moment, with a thought from Lin Ke, things took a turn.

Immediately, a white light, invisible to outsiders, shot from Lin Ke's chest and into the body of the little hamster on the ground.

And so, under Lin Ke's watchful gaze, the previously harmless and even somewhat cute little white mouse suddenly froze, and the half-eaten mealworm it was holding in its little hand fell to the ground.

At the same time, in the next instant, it seemed as if a large amount of flesh and blood were constantly surging out of the mouse's body.

Its entire body rapidly swelled up, becoming like a large lump of flesh.

Then, in the next breath, the little white hamster seemed to have been sculpted and completely transformed.

At this moment, its entire body was already the size of an adult orange cat, and its snow-white fur stood up like white silver needles.

It looked like an albino hedgehog.

At the same time, the two pairs of molars on the upper and lower jaws also became very prominent and well-developed.

"Squeak???"

With the power now in his body, the little white mouse, completely transformed by the Giant Tooth Rat King character card, now has a bewildered and intelligent look in his big little eyes.

It looked at Lin Ke and squeaked twice.

Lin Ke, meanwhile, slowly squatted down, seemingly lost in thought.

"Little guy, come here."

"Squeak???"

The hamster stared blankly at Lin Ke, then its intelligent eyes quickly filled with joy, and it immediately moved closer to Lin Ke's body in a very cooperative manner.

Lin Ke reached out and touched the little guy's head.

At this moment, the little guy even closed his eyes comfortably and kept making soft squeaking and humming sounds.

The hair feels quite prickly to the touch, almost like steel wire.

"Hmm, little guy, tuck your fur in."

Lin Ke only said it tentatively, but the little guy seemed to really understand, and then all the fur on his body softened in the next instant.

As a result, the large hamster's fur looks fluffy and even somewhat fuzzy right now.

Lin Ke touched it again and found that the texture was surprisingly good.

So I felt free to masturbate to my heart's content.

After that, Lin Ke conducted various tests on the hamster in the room.

The iron spoon was easily broken by the little hamster's bite.

Lin Ke tested its jumping ability and the sharpness of its claws one by one.

Finally, he was satisfied and removed the Giant Tooth Rat King character card from the white mouse's equipment.
