After the archive is damaged, I live in another world

"..."

Xu Mu and the Rose Demon King both looked at him as if he were a moron.

Dr. Evil didn't care. He took off his hat and coat and hung them on the coat rack in the entrance. He then held his short staff behind him and walked in casually. "Not bad, not bad. Brother Invincible, to have such a big house in Free City, you can definitely be considered middle class."

Xu Mu asked, "Doctor, where have you been since then? Why haven't I seen you for so long?"

"Go make money, gold coins."

The Doctor rubbed his thumb over his index and middle fingers.

He sighed, looking at the elf squatting on the table, observing him curiously. "Since the Demon War began, the prices of adventuring-related goods in the city have fluctuated significantly. You know, I'm a researcher, and research requires money. I spotted the 'Spirit Tranquilizing Herb' and bought it up in large quantities, buying low and selling high, making a small profit."

Xu Mu was very familiar with the tranquilizing grass.

This medicinal ingredient is widely used in psychotropic potions. It was sold out throughout the city during the regional competition last month. With another demon-fighting battle coming up soon, the shortage is expected to be significant.

Xu Mu asked, "How much did you earn?"

"Small money, small money."

Dr. Evil's smile really deserves a beating.

Xu Mu sneered, shook his head, and said, "Profiting from the war, profiting from the blood of others. Doctor, you'll get what you deserve!"

Hey.

Dr. Evil doesn't care.

The Rose Demon King looked up and said, "Doctor, please get me an adventurer certificate. I want to join Lord Invincible's team."

"That's not a problem, Lord Demon. This is for you."

Like a magic trick, Dr. Evil took out an adventurer's certificate from his pocket.

The words "Rose Venerable" were clearly written on it, and the photo was exactly of the Rose Demon King.

Take another look at the resume -

Hey!

It was a very detailed resume, from birthplace to growing-up place, plus several adventures, written carefully for more than three pages.

Xu Mu looked at it and asked, "Is it forged?"

The doctor shook his head. "You could say it's true, because I've already uploaded this information to the Magic Network. If Lady Rose were to touch the 'Omniscient Magic Circle' now, all that would come out would be this data."

Oh……

I don't know what happened, but it's pretty cool.

Xu Mu continued, "It takes at least three people to form a team. Doctor, are you interested?"

"I'm not interested in becoming a combatant. I don't think martial arts should be used for show; they're the art of fighting. But... I could be a team manager, technician, or something like that," Dr. Evil said calmly. "Lord Owl informed me that we need to find a 'retreat' here. We need to operate in the Free City for a while. Having an identity will make things easier."

Xu Mu didn't force it.

He simply asked, "Third person, do you have any recommendations?"

"Lord Xiao should be suitable."

he?

He can't.

Xu Mu turned a deaf ear and said, "Since you don't have any recommendations, I'll find one myself."

"?"

Dr. Evil tilted his head.

……

……

League Association, office hall.

Xu Mu held Little Rose in his arms and completed the registration with Dr. Evil. The receptionist said graciously, "Registration successful. Mr. Xu, if another fighter joins your team, you can apply for a 'qualifying battle.'"

"Qualifying match?" Xu Muqi asked, "Wasn't the league suspended? Why are they still playing?"

"The Qualifying Tournament is not a league match; it's a 'qualification match' to confirm your team's strength."

It was only after the receptionist's subsequent explanation that Xu Mu finally understood what was going on.

The Holy Spirit Duel League is divided into Class A and Class B. Every new team has one qualifying battle opportunity when it is established.

If they win, they will become a Class A team on the spot and will not have to struggle in the Class B league, which can save a lot of time and energy.

Naturally, the qualification battle is extremely difficult.

It's a round-robin battle.

After the game starts, the new team needs to face three B-level teams and two A-level teams, a total of fifteen people taking turns to attack!

Looking back at the past qualifying matches, the new team that successfully won——

not a single one!

Chapter 240 # 237 Could it be?

Xu Mu briefly read the rules and asked, "The opponent for the qualifying match... is it me who chooses it, or someone else?"

The receptionist replied, "Each team registers on their own, and the association assigns them. While the qualifiers don't affect your points, they are rare off-season tournaments, and they offer a chance to expand your profile with established new teams, so they're very popular with all the teams."

Oh.

Xu Mu nodded and said, "Thank you."

"You're welcome. Sir, I need to remind you that... registration for the qualifying matches ends at 3:00 PM tomorrow. If you miss this, you'll have to start from the B-League."

"Hiss... got it."

How come no one reminded me?

If the Sea Fog Demon King hadn't stopped fighting, wouldn't it have been a waste?

That city lord——

He wouldn't think that I, Xu, am an expert and don't need any scientific knowledge, right?

Outrageous.

Xu Mu stood at the door and looked at the calm Dr. Evil: "Doctor, you really don't want to fight? I think you can."

The doctor waved his hands repeatedly, "No fight, no fight. You know, I'm a wanted criminal, and it's not easy to forge an identity... The exposure of the Holy Spirit Duel is too high. If I'm exposed, it will be a devastating blow to your team."

Oh!

If you hadn't told me, I would have forgotten who you are, "The Evil Pharos."

Xu Mu looked at the little rose in his arms and said, "I already have a demon king, so I don't need an internationally wanted criminal."

Dr. Evil still shook his head. "What do you know? Lady Rose is the Demon King. She is the ultimate force on Blue Star. As long as she doesn't release the seal, no one can see through her true form! Besides, what's your level, Xu Wudi, and Lady Rose? If the two of you go in, even if the other side sends 150 men, they won't be able to defeat them, let alone a mere 15? You can just go to the street and recruit someone. You don't need me."

"..."

It can’t be said that it doesn’t make sense.

However, caution is required.

Xu Mu and Xiao Qiangwei are indeed very stable. If they add another expert, they can make it stable within stability and even more stable. Wouldn’t that be great?

Xu Mu and his three companions came to Acorn Street and looked at the headquarters of the Gold Jade Adventure Group.

There was no one in the headquarters.

The Huilang brothers and sisters, as well as Yu Jiayin, seemed to have gone out on an adventure and had not returned yet. There was a sign hanging on the gate with a fax number on it.

Xu Mu tried sending a fax to inquire. About ten minutes later, a message came back: "The commission went smoothly. We are on the returning ship and are expected to arrive in three days. Mr. Xu, we will invite you to attend the celebration banquet. Please do me a favor."

He came back three days later.

There is no need to consider the people from the Jinyu Adventure Group.

Xu Mu thought about it, first took Xiao Qiangwei and Dr. Evil home, then turned around and went to the next door - the residence of Gu Zhigong.

……

……

No. 3 Linhe Street.

The three cups of tea were still warm, and Gu Zhigong was entertaining two guests.

The two guests were none other than the winery's siblings, Qi Shi and Ishihara Wright. Gu Zhigong stroked his chin and said, "Thank you for coming all this way, but it's just about the order... Alas! I'm powerless!"

"..."

"..."

The Wright siblings looked at each other, with some anxiety and loss in their eyes.

The winery's traditional brewing methods emphasize traditional craftsmanship. The wine they sell this year is brewed last year, and most of the proceeds from the sales go towards purchasing raw materials, with a small portion remaining as profit.

Under normal circumstances, this model could not make the Wright brothers and sisters rich, but at least they could have a stable income and would not starve.

but--

Last year, a major customer stopped buying wine, and the "Wright Justice Wine" they brewed could not be sold, and they were unable to make ends meet.

Fortunately, Master Xifeng stepped in in time and lent some money to the Wright brothers and sisters, which ensured this year's production.

But this year, even Master Xifeng won’t buy it!

This……

Lite wine is quite special. It has very high requirements for the storage environment and requires the construction of special warehouses to ensure that it does not deteriorate.

The winery's warehouse is already overflowing with goods. If sales still don't open up this year, the only option is...

Pour it all out!

Gu Zhigong apologized sincerely, "Master Ishihara, we've been partners for six years. The flavor and quality of the lite wine are unique. If it weren't for a major change, how could we have stopped ordering? It's really... Young Master Xifeng has encountered some trouble, so... I'm sorry, I'm sorry, we really can't continue our business in the Central Land."

"..."

Ishihara Wright is an upright young man.

At this moment, he still had a smile on his face and did not show too much impatience.

Clearly, this is a virtue.

But this is not the demeanor of a businessman.

He hesitated for a moment, but didn't insist. He just nodded and said, "If that's the case, then there's nothing we can do...Mr. Gu Zhigong, regarding the loan from last year..."

Gu Zhigong raised his hand and said, "Don't worry, there's no rush to borrow money. You can pay it back when you have enough money to do so."

"Oh, that's really helpful."

Despite his disappointment, Ishihara Wright stood up.

He bowed and said, "Then we will take our leave, Mr. Gu Zhigong."

"I'll see you off."

Gu Zhigong stood up and walked the two to the door.

When I walked into the yard, I bumped into someone head-on - if it wasn't Xu Mu, who else could it be?

Xu Mu was startled. He looked at Qi Shi and then at Gu Zhi Gong, and said with a smile, "Gu Zhi Gong, do you know Miss Qi Shi?"

"Oh! Mr. Xu!"

Mr. Gu Zhi, who had maintained his composure just a moment ago, suddenly changed his expression.

He smiled brightly, trotted over to Xu Mu, and said, "Mr. Xu, you're back? I've heard about what happened on the front lines. Thank you for your kindness and for helping Young Master Xifeng!"

what……

Little things.

Xu Mu said, "Master Xifeng is my friend. How could I stand by and watch my friend in trouble? Hiss—Is Xifeng okay?"
