333: Chapter 313: Newcomer 333: Chapter 313: Newcomer “Sorry, sorry, I am Lu Ping’an from the Special Service Team Three of Zion.
I just want to say that our special agents are usually quite busy and are often not on campus.
Yesterday, there was an emergency situation (we played too hard), and I forgot to notify everyone.
My apologies.”
His simple explanation turned his forgetting about the matter because he played too hard into an emergency situation as if there was a sudden task that the special agents needed to handle, and as a result, this side got overlooked.
From the special agents?
The anger of six of the seven people sitting across faded a bit.
Although they were stood up, the reason seems acceptable.
Moreover, as someone from the special agents, he should be trustworthy, right?
Despite standing them up yesterday and being late today, he calmly acted as if nothing had happened.
Is this the composure that an adult (professional) should have?
From the special agents?
The remaining person across shivered.
A club formed by a magic king who colludes with both the black and the white, deceives men and bullies women, turns out to be led by an official?
The world must be going crazy!
Is there any justice left?!
Lu Ping’an smiled apologetically.
If the others don’t agree to cooperate, the competition tomorrow would be canceled…cough, he forgot that it was indeed his fault, and saying sorry is the right thing to do.
So, after expressing his apology, Lu Ping’an directly talked about his purpose.
“…Our club was formed by a group of acquaintances, with only four members.
However, all of us are members of official organizations, with decent strength.
Tomorrow, we have a site battle, and we need more people in our team to upgrade the club level so that we can sign up for the competition.
So, I sent out an invitation when I met Mei Yuge…”
In this era, having an official background is still the most trustworthy, at least it’s not some weird and eccentric cult organization.
Lu Ping’an didn’t lie.
Among the four members, he himself is a formal member of the special agents, Xue En and Meow are auxiliary police, and the senior student Guan Xinxian is a member of the Rescue Team.
All of them can be considered genuine and reputable.
This reason is also acceptable.
“Ghost members” count as members, but you have to explain it clearly.
“…Currently, our club is more like an association of enthusiasts.
According to the rules, you can’t leave within a year after joining.
If we get the site, you can use the facilities, and the senior brothers can give you some guidance when they have time.
However, they still have no obligations or rights as ghost members.
I want to clarify this in advance to avoid any disputes…”
As they listen, the benefits Lu Ping’an offers seem to get worse and worse, which, on the contrary, makes the newcomers more and more satisfied.
The more novice they are, the more likely they are to actively collect information and check strategies.
They are not like Lu Ping’an back then.
Since they decided to enter this profession, they calculate the gains and potential future possibilities clearly.
Unlike ordinary professionals and ordinary freshmen, preparatory students are in an embarrassing position, not only because they are at least one or two years behind regular students, but also because their awakened abnormal abilities tend to be weaker.
“You have to first reach the starting line of other ordinary students before you can get a more reasonable evaluation.”
Before, they might think, “I may be different, my awakened talent is particularly strong.”
But now, they are content just to survive the tests.
They…she sat here, trying to seize every opportunity, proving from the side that they were not the Chosen Ones.
On the one hand, being accepted to Ancient City University shows their nature as king of candidates.
On the other hand, they are indeed starting way behind others.
They are on a balance between inferiority and complacency, constantly leaning frantically towards both sides.
Becoming a professional, they learn many deeper secrets and have a clearer understanding of the “superhuman world,” which makes them realize how insignificant they are.
“If that’s the case, then I’m willing,” said a girl with gold-dyed hair, who readily agreed without determining all the conditions.
She used “I” instead of “we,” showing determination to go all the way, even if it means leaving the others behind, as well as a hidden effort to please.
“My name is Ximeier, my Chinese name is Wen Xixi.
I’m half-blooded.
I know it’s hard for us freshmen in the preparatory department to find a club that takes care of us.
If it’s only for one year, I hope to receive more guidance from my senior brothers.”
They are true newcomers without any connections, resources, or information.
Normally, they can only wait patiently with the preparatory class until they reach a certain level and prove themselves, at which point they may receive more resources…one or two years would be considered quick, and it’s not uncommon for them to drop out midway because they can’t endure the process.
The conditions Lu Ping’an offered weren’t great, but for them, the best opportunity is to get to know real professionals, especially those who have already worked in “official organizations.”
While having access to channels for improvement is one thing, “not being bullied” is also an important consideration.
Fearing more darkness in the inner world, the newcomers could scare themselves to death with their imagination.
The relative safety of the official background is the main reason why they immediately “surrendered”…after all, members are the face of the club, and somebody will stand up for them if they are bullied.
Hearing this, Lu Ping’an was a bit surprised.
How could you agree so quickly without knowing the many hidden benefits?
He still had a pile of “trash” taboo items on hand, as well as some basic information on various professions.
Although they were not expected to be very tempting, it seemed they could be saved for later?
“Hey, hey, hey, before we came here, that’s not what we agreed on.
What happened to entering and leaving together?” A girl said bluntly, her mouth smiling, but her tone did not.
However, everyone who came here had some thoughts in mind.
Mei Yuge only timidly mentioned in class that “someone is forming a club and looking for preparatory students to make up the numbers.” They approached instantly, like dogs smelling meat, and were extremely enthusiastic.
Lu Ping’an lowered his head and took a sip of coffee.
As long as you have enough people, it doesn’t matter how you fight or calculate.
It’s none of my business.
However, he also noticed Mei Yuge…
Why is she lowering her head, her hands are shaking, her face pale, and she seems a bit uncomfortable?
“Did you catch a cold?
Drink more hot water,” Lu Ping’an casually said, but he didn’t notice that her shaking got even worse.
“Bang!” The coffee spilled all over the table, and Mei Yuge quickly stood up to clean up the mess.
The others looked at her with a subtle expression.
At this time, someone stood up to help her shift the focus.
“This junior…
cough, I’m Tian Liang from the third year of the general course, and this is my sister Tian Xi.
I came to take a look.
Can you tell me who is in your club?”
Great, they even come with a guardian.
Lu Ping’an frowned slightly, somewhat displeased, but after thinking about it, it seemed to make sense.
It’s reasonable for newcomers to be worried about being cheated, so it’s only natural for an old stager to come and help.
“Our club is newly formed, with only four members.
We need six members to reach the third level.
I’m the president, and the vice president is the fourth-year Guan Xinxian senior brother.
The members include a second-year Xue En senior brother and a first-year general course Lei Shuiyun.”
Upon hearing this, Tian Liang was taken aback, somewhat in disbelief.
“The ‘One-handed Support’, the boss Guan Xinxian?”
Lu Ping’an was also a little surprised.
“This title is wild.
I’ll ask about it when I meet him tomorrow.”
Even though he knew that “campus titles” would be lost after graduation, there was no doubt that this was the wildest title Lu Ping’an had ever heard.
Not to mention, considering the Fusang tree, it was quite fitting.
“Is he coming back to school tomorrow?”
“He’s going directly to the competition.
His rescue team has been quite busy lately.”
“…
Can I go watch tomorrow?”
Great, it seems like this one is an admirer of Guan Xinxian too.
But this doesn’t seem like a bad thing.
Lu Ping’an agreed directly.
“Sure, it’s open to the public anyway, and everyone can come and watch.
If everything goes smoothly, the base will be everyone’s in the future.
There’s no problem with leaving a room for everyone to rest.”
“Pah!” The just-refilled coffee spilled onto the floor again.
Lu Ping’an frowned.
This girl seemed to have some big problem.
“Is it Xue En from the second year?
The one known as Disaster Fist at Ancient City University?
Although Xue En’s fame has spread beyond the university…
the name Disaster Fist is indeed quite catchy and too fitting, it has too much of an advantage in terms of spreading.”
Lu Ping’an nodded.
He also knew about this.
” I, Shuiyun, Xue En, we are all from the same team.
We also work with Brother Guan in our day jobs.
We are all public officials, so it’s easy to communicate.
If any of you want to follow this path in the future, we can provide some exam materials.”
Tian Liang was about to say something else, but at that moment, he glanced at his phone.
The message about “Lu Ping’an” that he had asked someone to check had finally returned.
Upon seeing it, his pupils dilated in shock, not daring to believe it.
“…
You are Lu Ping’an from the Logistics Department?”
In his speech, there was an added touch of respect, but the others looked a bit uncertain.
For newcomers, the Logistics Department is not attractive.
The saying about “participating in logistics for the points” can easily mislead many laymen.
It seems that this person is a Husky among the wolves, a manager here to help with logistics in the club?
“Yes, I’m also a new student.”
With these words, everything was settled.
A few application forms were handed over, and several people quickly signed them.
Lu Ping’an still needed to go through the procedure at the Government Affairs Building, so he excused himself and left immediately.
“…
If you are interested, you can come and watch the ‘Base Battle’ tomorrow.” It is Saturday tomorrow, and regular students have no classes.
Lu Ping’an planned to skip class.
Although the others hesitated while signing and especially Mei Yuge, who was nearly in tears and her hand kept shaking, they dared not say anything under Lu Ping’an’s gaze.
However, after signing and walking away, Tian Xi was somewhat resentful of her brother who had helped her draw attention.
“Wasn’t it agreed to take a look first?
Why the rush?
Even if we decided on it, we should at least ask about the treatment.
He is from the Logistics Department, after all.
Can he really make decisions?
If it doesn’t work, why not let your club take me in?
Even if I just do chores on the periphery, it’s better than a club with only four people.”
Tian Liang pondered for a moment before seriously saying:
“…
Although he is from the Logistics Department, his overall score this year is the ninth.
You preparatory students don’t know about his practical results because he doesn’t take practical exams.
He ranked in the top 20, and at that time he only had a first-tier ability, but he had a record of defeating third-tier opponents.”
He added with profound meaning.
“…
Moreover, he is from the Logistics Department, and you will find out later that the Logistics Department is much more precious than General Department, especially for pure newcomers like you.
This golden thigh should not be missed.
It’s a thousand times better than my regular club.”
“Woo.” Someone “cried with joy”.
