Hell Game: Starting from Metropolis

"Actually, it's not that I can't give it to you, sir."

Liu Zheng continued.

"You think you'd be that generous?"

The oxen and horses looked at him with their eyes askew.

This guy has been trying to swap things out since he started working; he's more like a middleman than a deliveryman.

"Since the big boss has taken such good care of me, it's only right that I offer him tributes. Of course, it would be even better if he were willing to subsidize me a little."

The item description says that the Legendary Deliveryman Vest cannot be taken out of the dungeon, so it's better to exchange it for something else than to waste it.

"What do you want? Make it clear first, my family's wealth isn't as thick as that tree's."

The ox and horse pursed their lips.

"Just give me whatever you think is appropriate, as long as it lets me live a few more days."

Liu Zheng said.

"Your requirements are quite high."

The cattle and horses sized him up.

"It's already a surprise that you've survived this long."

It said earnestly.

Most people would be dead by the time they deliver that order to Mr. Li; those high tips aren't so easy to come by.

Green Garden Crazy City isn't a good place either. Although it's not a high-end community, it's a mixed bag of people.

"I'm protected by big shots."

Liu Zheng said respectfully.

"I can't protect you, I really don't have anything suitable for you here."

The ox and horse shook their heads.

Unlike that tree, it doesn't have a collecting obsession; once it gets something, it either uses it or replaces it.

"Just get two bottles of Ascension Moss."

He said it generously.

"You wish! If I had it, I would have drunk it myself long ago. I just got that bottle of Vlad III last time, and if I went back to the kitchen, those guys would kill me."

The ox and horse glared at each other.

"Then there's nothing I can do. I'll just take it and trade it with De Lego."

Liu Zheng said regretfully.

"you dare!"

The ox and horse roared angrily.

"Boss, I have to survive."

he said calmly.

After staring at each other for a few minutes, the ox and horse snorted.

"I don't have anything, but I can give you a chance to earn some extra money."

After considering it for a moment, he said.

Chapter 20 Deliberately and carelessly

"What extra money?"

Liu Zheng asked.

"You'll find out when the time comes. And it's not guaranteed to work; it depends on your luck."

"That's what the bull-headed man said."

"Oh. By the way, I can't give you the vest right away."

He still needs it for delivering food, so he leaves the vest in the lounge before leaving the instance.

"That doesn't matter, I'm not in a hurry to use it. It won't be of much help to me if I don't collect the whole set."

"The ox and horse said."

"Was it originally a set?"

Liu Zheng asked in surprise.

De Lego didn't tell him about this.

"That's right, it should be a vest, a hat, and a delivery box."

Niu Ma recalled.

Even a single vest is a perfect item; if you collect a whole set, it would be at least epic, right?

Liu Zheng was somewhat fascinated.

However, he knew that it was just wishful thinking.

"By the way, who exactly is this legendary delivery driver? Is he from our restaurant?"

Liu Zheng asked curiously.

"Yes."

The oxen and horses nodded.

"Have you met him, sir?"

"I've never seen him before. He wasn't here when I arrived."

The ox and horse shook their heads.

"Did he resign or die?"

"How would I know? But he's worked in the restaurant for thirty years; he should have died long ago."

"The ox and horse said."

"Weren't you also planning to save up your salary for over ten years to buy scalped tickets?"

You believe me when I'm bragging?

The ox and horse rolled their eyes.

"Once I get back from Paradise Island, I'll have to find a way to escape. If I continue working at the restaurant, I'll be lucky to live to see my calf born."

Liu Zheng seemed to see a hint of worry on its large face.

"There are no security cameras in the lounge, right?"

He looked around.

"I don't know. It doesn't matter if it exists, that's what everyone says."

The oxen and horses said indifferently.

"Isn't the restaurant good?"

"It's not bad, it's just not easy."

The ox and horse shook their heads.

"Alright, that's enough. There shouldn't be any orders today. Let's go to sleep."

It went to its straw mat and lay down, soon snoring away.

Since Niu Ma said so, Liu Zheng relaxed and found a comfortable position in the corner to fall asleep.

He was still somewhat incredulous when he woke up to the sound of his alarm clock.

I actually survived to the second day in this bizarre world.

Aside from a few minor health issues, he's doing quite well.

"Could it be that I possess some kind of innate 'takeout saint' body'?"

Liu Zheng thought to himself, amusing himself.

"What are you laughing about? Hurry up and eat breakfast, we'll be getting to work soon."

The oxen and horses cried out.

"Oh."

He opened the cabinet, and sure enough, there was already a staff meal inside.

A bowl of mixed noodles, the contents of which were hard to identify, was topped with a layer of small pink spheres that looked like apple snail eggs.

Its quality is just average, and its only function is to restore physical strength.

"Sir, please go first."

Liu Zheng offered his lunchbox.

He knew that this was the real reason why the ox and horse had reminded him.

"You're a wise boy."

The ox and horse lowered their heads and inhaled half of it in one breath.

It sucked up almost all of the pink eggs, especially the ones.

"Fish-man eggs are chewy."

The oxen and horses exclaimed in admiration.

It puffed out its cheeks and chewed hard, the fish-man eggs crackling and popping in its mouth.

"The rest is for you."

Niu Ma returned the lunchbox to Liu Zheng.

"Thank you, boss."

He took the lunchbox and ate it without changing his expression.

It's not entirely a bad thing that cattle and horses fight over food; it just so happens that he doesn't want to eat those disgusting eggs.

After finishing the mixed noodles, Liu Zheng picked up the bottle of beverage.

Name: Red-eyed Mackerel Essence

Type: Item

Quality: Excellent

"Effect: Produces a satisfying and thorough excretion, which can treat some of the poisoning."

Note: At first, he thought it was just a fart.

"Can it be taken out of the instance: Yes"

The translucent, air-filled plastic container contains a liquid that has an oily sheen.

"Isn't this just a glycerin suppository?"

Liu Zheng remained silent.

They put this in the staff meals, are they afraid there won't be enough people slacking off in the restrooms?

Oh, so you're not allowed to use the restroom in the restaurant? That's fine then.

He put the plastic container in his pocket.

Nobody would drink this stuff; you should trade it with the plane trees.

After the cow and horse finished their own employee meals, Ghost Hand came over to assign tasks.

There were still two forms, but this time Niu Ma didn't let Liu Zheng choose; instead, he just took one and left.

Liu Zheng walked to the door and picked up the remaining one.
