The man was stunned and didn't react for a moment.

"Do you have any other questions?"

The clerk tapped the table impatiently.

"No more, no more."

The man quickly shook his head.

"If you don't have any more, just sign your name."

The clerk clicked on the computer, and a contract signing interface appeared on the desktop in front of the man.

The man was still in a daze until he finished signing the papers and was led by staff to the back of the onboarding process.

He never expected that he could find a job so easily that he could have enough to eat and a place to live.

In the past, when he went to look for work, the bosses either kicked him out because he was a homeless person, or only paid him very low wages, did not buy him any insurance, and did not sign a contract. His meager income was often not enough to pay the deposit for his rented apartment, so he could only stay in expensive hotels that charged per day.

Most of his income is taken by the bank to repay his previous loans, and the remaining money is not enough for him to eat.

With nowhere to keep warm and no food to fill his stomach, his health deteriorated, making it even harder for him to find work.

Now, with goods not selling, many factories have laid off workers, resulting in fewer and fewer jobs and increasingly fierce competition.

Even temporary jobs are becoming increasingly difficult for him to find.

He always thought that one day he would die silently on the side of the street, and his body would be thrown into the incinerator like garbage, along with other homeless people who had frozen to death on the street.

But at the moment.

The man glanced at the registration card that the intelligent robot he had just been guided had given him.

Things seem to be getting better.

There is light on the road ahead.

"Christos, the next mayor of Dawn City, made his first public appearance since the election. He said he would implement a series of reform policies after taking office, crack down on conglomerates, and improve workers' treatment."

"The election process for the mayor of Dawn City has been basically completed, and Christos has been confirmed as the next mayor of Dawn City. The Federal President sent a congratulatory telegram."

According to the tradition of Dawn City, the next mayor will be sworn in in early February next year. During the month or so between the election and the swearing-in ceremony, the current mayor will gradually transfer power to the next mayor and his governing team.

The television was broadcasting a news briefing, but the silver-haired old man paid no attention to it. He looked at the doctor in his pure white coat and asked in a low voice,

"Dr. Ike, is there really no other way?"

“Mr. Danilo,” Dr. Ike shook his head, “even if we restore Mr. Vian’s body with the sealing artifact, his soul has dissipated, leaving only a shell. He will never wake up, and this body will slowly die.”

Danny fell into a brief silence.

He gazed through the thick glass at the young man lying on the operating table with his eyes closed.

Then he paused for a moment, and said softly,

"Is there any way to maintain the vitality of this body indefinitely? Perhaps a cure will be found sometime in the future. We are willing to pay any price, and your Church of the Goddess of Life will gain the friendship of the Nolanca Group."

"The dead cannot be brought back to life... Even if such a method existed, you could not guarantee that 'he' would not mutate into a monster during this time."

Ike wanted to say something more, but seeing the old man's resolute eyes, he finally sighed slowly.

“I have a junior in medical school who is very talented and likes to study these taboo things. He once discussed with me a method to keep a person in a state of near death, but I haven’t been in contact with him for a long time. I can only try to contact him now. We can use the cryogenic hibernation pod to maintain Mr. Vian’s vital signs for now.”

"If there's anything the Nolanca Group can do for you, just let us know."

Danny said immediately.

“Okay,” Ike nodded gently. He knew now was not the time to refuse. “I’ll see if I can get in touch with him. Some of my classmates should still have his contact information. I heard he went to Dawn City.”

"What's his name? The Nolanca Group also has a branch in Dawn City."

The old man immediately asked.

“His name is…” Ike rummaged through the photos and found one of a man who looked somewhat sickly. He handed it to the old butler. “Roger.”

Dawn City

"The sun is shining so brightly today."

Ekali held her teacup, gazing at the afternoon sunlight streaming through the window.

"Yes."

Selena leaned back on the soft sofa and nodded gently.

After they both participated in the investigation of the mayor's possession of a strange beast, the two got in touch and gradually became friends.

Did Annie go to school today?

Selena looked at the news of Christos's interview playing on the screen of the building across the street and asked softly.

Ekali seemed to remember something and smiled gently. "The first batch of children have started school. They're in preparatory class now. She's going to teach the children. I'll go tomorrow."

"so good."

Selena also picked up her tea; it seemed like she hadn't had such a leisurely afternoon in a long time.

"By the way, have you heard about what happened in Kaya City?" Icarus suddenly asked.

"It seems that internal strife has broken out within the Nolanca Group, which controls Kaya City. Some directors have colluded with the Church of the God of Chaos to attempt to assassinate the current chairman of the board. The two sides have engaged in a fierce battle near the city center."

"Never heard of it..."

Selena shook her head.

“Really? You must be quite busy lately,” Ejali put down her teacup. “I heard that the chairman of the board of Nolanca Group is very handsome and a good person. He has taken many measures that benefit the lower-level workers. He now holds all the power and seems to be implementing some kind of reform.”

"very nice."

Selena took a sip of tea and looked out the window at the sunlight.

The world is slowly changing.

Chapter 258 Fifth Official Dungeon Settlement (Please add to your favorites and subscribe)

[Task evaluation and settlement in progress...]

Your task rating is SS.

SS.

He Ao looked at the review and let out a long sigh.

as expected.

He was unsure what changes might occur to the specific scoring details, so he looked at the scoring details in his field of vision.

[Crime Core Destruction Rating: SS (You single-handedly and perfectly completed the destruction mission, killing two C-rank powerhouses from the Chaos Crime Group, stealing one C-rank mech, and destroying another. With a mortal body, you relied on intelligence and technology to defeat four powerful C-rank beings. Your achievements are astonishing.)]

[Crime Organization Destruction Rating: SS (You destroyed the core of the Chaos crime syndicate and alleviated the crisis facing Kaya City through a series of reform policies, significantly reducing the possibility of crime arising at its source and saving many lives. Your name will surely be sung by thousands.)]

[Side Quest Completion Rating: SS (You thwarted the Nord Group's ambition to financially hijack the Nolanca Group, killed Nord Group's top agent Yalid, destroyed the hostile forces within the board of directors, purged the Nolanca Group, completed your rule over the Nolanca Group, and gained the support of the city's defense forces.)]

[Hidden Mission Completion Rating: SSS (You have perfectly fulfilled Wei An's wishes, continued the Nolanca family's control over the Nolanca Group, killed Kyle, and further enhanced the Nolanca Group's power.)]

Your overall rating is: SS

To be honest, although he had expected it, He Ao was still pleasantly surprised to see that both main quests were SS-rank.

Evaluation of these four tasks.

The hidden mission was Vian's wish: to avenge his parents and protect the Nolanca Group belonging to the Nolanca family amidst the clashes between internal and external forces. He Ao completed this mission very well, even seizing absolute power in a certain sense.

The side mission was to deal a heavy blow to the hostile forces. He Ao directly eliminated the board of directors, took down Yalide, and completely cut off the tentacles of the Nord Group. It is reasonable for this mission to be rated SS.

Regarding the two main quests...

In the mission to destroy the core of the criminal organization, Heo initially faced two C-level superhumans who could receive divine favor, and two C-level mechs, making it a one-against-four situation.

All he had was an unfinished miniature fusion reactor, the Adam 1 with various problems, capable of only exerting C-level capabilities for a short time in overclocked mode before immediately breaking down, and a mortal body that was only slightly better than that of an ordinary person.

But is it possible to complete this task by taking a shortcut?

Actually, it's possible, because He Ao actually has a powerful 'foreign aid' who has never played before.

The commander of the Nolanca mercenary group is a B-level powerhouse.

However, he was not in Kaya City, but on vacation at the northernmost point of the Federation. Even if he returned in the fastest fighter jet, it would take several days.

Moreover, Heo couldn't contact him during his vacation, and it was precisely because he was on vacation that Philip dared to target Vian.

If He

Heo persisted in defense, and once this man returned to Kaya City after his vacation, Heo could easily subdue Chaos with his help.

However, with this person in charge, it's impossible to clean up the board of directors. He's not a staunch supporter of this young upstart, Vian; he'd prefer a more stable board.

Yarid would also retreat and run away if things went wrong, so even if Heo completed the mission, he would only get the lowest score.

He Ao chose the most difficult method, but it yielded the greatest rewards.

So, in the first main mission, I destroyed the core of the criminal organization and earned an SS rating.

This was within He Ao's plan, since He Ao had roughly figured out the system's scoring mechanism for the first main mission through the previous mission.

The higher the difficulty of the task, the higher the score.

He was somewhat surprised that he achieved an SS rating in the second main mission, which was to destroy the criminal group.

The assessment notes that Heo alleviated the crisis in Kaya City through a series of reform policies, reduced the number of homeless people in Kaya City, and fundamentally lowered the crime rate, achieving a fundamental solution.

When He Ao did these things, he expected that these results would mostly be included in the main quest evaluation, but he didn't know which main quest evaluation it would be included in, or whether it would improve the quest evaluation, so he was a little surprised by the result.

From this perspective, the scoring rules for the two main quests are now fairly clear.

The first main quest is quite challenging. The more perfectly you complete it, and the more difficulties you overcome on your own, the higher your score will be.

The second main mission requires addressing the root cause, resolving the problem that triggered the mission.
