Chapter 468: Treasures of Function Cards

Let's not talk about the collection tasks, ordinary tasks... You Huan has been in this world for a long time, and this is the first ordinary task he received.

And it's a big task as soon as it appears, which is a bit weird.

He looked away from the panel for a moment.

There were four people waiting for them ahead.

They wore uniforms with the emblems of four companies on their chests.

None of them used virtual images, and the surroundings were very "clean", with no messy light screen information.

And looking around, the scene behind the four people was also very clean.

The black and white building is surrounded by lush greenery.

The canopy emits a soft glow, creating a bright environment.

There are no messy neon lights, no dense crowds of pedestrians dressed like crazy, and no internet celebrities doing live broadcasts on the streets.

Clean and tidy, with the fragrance of grass and trees in the gentle breeze

This scene made several people who were adapted to the middle-level environment stunned.

"It's like coming to another world..." someone murmured.

"Everyone, welcome to the lower level!" At this time, the one with the softest expression among the four uniformed men also spoke.

He smiled and said, "We are the representatives sent by the four companies to welcome the new employees. Please follow the representatives of the new company. We will lead you into the company park and give you an overall introduction to the lower level."

The group of people who entered the lower level were all young elites. After a brief moment of wonder, they followed the representatives of different companies.

You Huan discovered that the person who joined Queske with him was his former colleague Xiaoshui.

What a fate.

Xiaoshui looked at him silently, then followed the representative without saying a word.

The representative of Queske was the gentle man who spoke first.

His smile seems to be welded to his body, and it feels fake if you see it too much.

"The front is our company's work park. The four company parks occupy the four directions of east, south, west and north respectively, and in the center -"

The man pointed at the tall building in the distance.

"We call it the 'lighthouse'. It is where the top management of the company works and where the entire middle and lower levels are commanded."

"Our world revolves around its 'light'."

You Huan followed his direction and looked towards the tall building in the center of the park.

Its appearance is very interesting, slightly broken, with a lot of building debris surrounding its main body like star rings.

Its main body is like a big hand, a nest, or a scepter, holding up the huge silver object above that resembles a Rubik's Cube.

"Bang, bang, bang."

The moment he took the Rubik's Cube into his field of vision, he felt the illusory hearts of this body and the Data Dragon hidden in the middle layer begin to beat violently at the same time!

Between him and that thing, a strong psychological attraction, like magnetic attraction, instantly emerged.

Somehow, he understood what it was in an instant.

Before entering this world, he used the treasure map function card.

There will be a treasure in this world that is extremely suitable for him.

This treasure is this huge silver "magic cube"!

"That is the 'light' of the lighthouse. We call it the 'Supreme Heavy Core'. It is truly a miraculous thing."

As if noting You Huan's attention to the Rubik's Cube, the man laughed.

"But that's not something we can touch."

You Huan withdrew his gaze silently.

Taking another step forward, he officially entered the company's campus.

The moment he stepped in, the hair on this body stood up slightly.

It seemed as if a sense of voyeurism flashed by.

Who was watching him secretly?

"Well, welcome to the lower level!" After entering the park, the man turned around, spread his arms, and repeated the welcome again.

The corners of his mouth curled up, revealing a meaningful smile, and he said to You Huan and Xiao Shui:

"Next, you will make the most important choice of your life - choosing your 'job' in the company."

A few minutes later, the three appeared in a cafe.

The store was silent except for the rustling sound of the big trees outside being blown by the breeze.

A pure white robot came up with coffee, put it down in front of the three people, and then left quietly.

You Huan was still looking at the chubby robot, and Xiao Shui was already impatiently asking the man in front of him:

"Can we choose our own positions as soon as we join the company? Do we need to start from the bottom?"

The man took a sip of coffee, looked at Xiaoshui who was gradually showing an anxious expression, and said with a smile:

"The bottom layer? All production has entered the unmanned stage. We don't need bottom-level employees."

"What we need are employees who can start our 'critical' work right away..."

As he spoke, he raised his hand slightly, and unlike the light screen on the middle floor that was almost light-polluted, a faint blue light projected four icons on the desktop.

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

"The armed department responsible for the use of force to control the middle and lower levels." The finger pointed at the first icon from left to right.

"The Meme Department is responsible for creating memes so that middle-class people can maintain a high emotional level, thereby maintaining social order and ensuring the birth of extraordinary factors." The second icon.

"A control department that specializes in dealing with uncontrollable factors from the 'outside world'." The third icon.

At this point, he did not introduce the fourth icon, but instead spoke to himself as Xiao Shui's eyes widened:

"The armed forces department has access to the most advanced weapons. They are usually quite idle. At most, they deal with the 'materials' of people who attempt to escape. It is rare that anyone actually starts a riot among the middle or lower levels."

"But the selection requirements for the Armed Forces are quite high. If you don't have a lot of previous fighting and shooting experience, you probably won't pass."

"The meme department needs the most people, so the selection requirements are relatively low. Most people can get in after being selected, but the workload is very high. You have to browse a lot of information every day and spend time designing memes."

"The control department has a lot of business trips. After joining, we mainly deal with the things on the upper level, as well as a small number of robots in the middle level that are beyond our control."

"Their selection requirements are also very high, but for some people, this is the most interesting department because they can interact with the outside world."

"Wait, wait..." Xiao Shui finally found an opportunity to interrupt, "Uh, why do the three departments sound unrelated to the company's business... and the upper management, memes... and what is the fourth icon-"

"These are the main departments of the company." The man interrupted him and smiled gently, "You have to think about it. If you join these three departments, you will be exposed to the direct management of this society and the truth."

"In order to keep the middle-class masses addicted to the virtual world every day, without feeling tired or rebellious, and without realizing that the upper level is the real surface, in fact, the work of any department is necessary and very hard."

"Memes, upper class..." Xiao Shui muttered a few words and quickly understood the meaning behind the man's words.

There was a trace of fear in his eyes: "The surface of the Ark is the real world?! The company is controlling our lives?!"

"Shh." The man made a quiet gesture, then smiled and said, "Do you understand now? Make your choice quickly. The company's time is precious, and we won't give you too much time to struggle."

"After choosing a department, do you still need to pass a selection before you can enter the department?" At this time, You Huan, who had been listening quietly, asked.

"Yes, each department will set up its own selection test."

"What will happen if I fail the selection?" When You Huan asked this question, his eyes fell on the fourth icon that had not been introduced.

The man also looked down at the fourth icon, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

This new guy is very sharp.

In Xiaoshui's increasingly horrified eyes, he did not answer directly, but spread his hands and smiled:

"If you don't pass, you will know... If I were you, I would rather choose the easiest meme department to take on a lot of work, and I would ensure that I pass the selection."

After he finished speaking, he stood up and said, "I have something else to do, so I'll leave first. After you make your choice, press the corresponding icon and a tester from the department will come to find you."

"Good luck to you."

"Sir." He was about to turn around and leave when You Huan suddenly called him.

When he turned around, You Huan looked him in the eye: "Which department do you belong to?"

"Me?" He kept his impassive smile and said, "You are very perceptive - I am already above the three major departments and do not belong to any one department."

After saying that, he opened the door and left the cafe.
