Alien Relic Hunter

So...Mr. Ke Lan, I'm afraid the agreement Soma Consortium made with you cannot be fulfilled. Caroline said with a hint of apology in her tone, But we will keep it secret for you as much as possible, especially... On the Security Bureau side, the Soma Consortium will bear all responsibilities, and in addition, we will also compensate you with a generous 'liquidated damages'.

Also...the captain also has a personal compensation for you, but whether you accept this compensation or not is entirely up to you.

What compensation? Ke Lan asked.

The captain wants to hire you to be a special consultant of the Soma Consortium. The annual salary is six million credits a year, plus the L8 level personnel and material transfer authority within the Soma Consortium... I need to add here that the L8 level The authority is equivalent to the senior director of the consortium and second only to the general directors of the board of directors.”

Is this... trying to recruit me? Even though Ke Lan didn't think much about power and wealth, he was still frightened by the price.

If this can be regarded as recruitment, I'm afraid the headhunting departments of all the consortiums in Ark will be shocked... Caroline glared at Ke Lan, This is because the captain took advantage of her special status as one of the legal heirs of the Soma Consortium. The benefits that your status has helped you gain, this job as a special consultant is, to put it bluntly, a sinecure, and you can enjoy the corresponding benefits without having to do anything... To be honest, I'm a little bit bitter.

Caroline said the last few words through gritted teeth.

Damn? Your captain must have fallen in love with this kid, right?! The hound turned around, looked at Ke Lan's face carefully, and then said: Although he's not ugly, he can't be said to be handsome either. He's not handsome at all. You don’t have the potential to be a pretty boy!”

Old dog, I suggest you stop being a hunter and become a writer of cool articles. Maybe you can become popular. Ke Lan said angrily. At the same time, he was also wondering in his heart... What Zofia threw away Is it really just to win over yourself by offering such a tempting olive branch? But the problem is that his apparent value is just that of an ordinary relic hunter. Although he can barely reach the elite level in this industry, there are many people who are better than him... Ke Lan really couldn't figure out what there was about him that made her worth such a high cost to win over him.

As the legal heir of a large conglomerate, everything Zofia does can be regarded as a business, but this business is always a loss - just like buying a box of gold bars. Just like an ordinary cotton coat, such cotton coats are everywhere in the store, and the price is clearly marked. You can buy it as long as one percent of this box of gold bars... or even one thousandth. She even only needs Just take out one of the gold bars from this box and you can buy higher-end furs and silks...

But why did she choose to buy this one?

Ke Lan's heart suddenly trembled. Could it be that...she discovered her secrets?

The so-called special adviser is just a bait?

Ke Lan suddenly became alert, and he tentatively asked Caroline: Uh...can you give me some time to think about it?

Do you need to consider this? Caroline's expression was even more exaggerated than before. Even the hound looked at Ke Lan in surprise - Ke Lan, are you crazy? The opportunity to make a career is right in front of you. You actually want to think about it?

Huh? How about this? How about you replace me as a special consultant, old dog? I'll give you the opportunity to rise to the top, okay? Ke Lan said suddenly.

What? Hound narrowed his eyes and waved his hands repeatedly, Forget it, I'm not interested. I don't like dealing with those people who claim to be big shots. Besides, I don't have to worry about food, clothing or lack of food. If you don’t spend money, you won’t go.”

What do you mean? There was a hint of sullenness in Caroline's tone, Miss Zofia has paid a lot of price for this special consultant position. How come she is here with you? It seems like she is everywhere on the street. Can you pick up something worthless?!

Caroline snatched the document from the hound's hand and said angrily: I said from the beginning, it is entirely up to you to decide whether to accept it or not. If you don't want this position, you can refuse.

What I mean is...can you give me a little more time... Ke Lan gestured to his mummy-like body with his eyes, Even if you want to accept it, I can't take up the position now.

Then I suggest you think about it for no more than a month. Caroline's tone softened slightly.

Why?

Because the job application has been approved by the consortium headquarters...that is to say, the salary has been paid out. If you do not complete the employment procedures within one month, the first month's salary will be returned to the finance department.

Then you have nothing to lose.

You! You can't understand what you say! I'm thinking about you! Caroline finally reached the limit of her patience and yelled out, In short, whether you accept or reject, Just make this call when the time comes - okay, I still have to work, if you guys have packed your things, hurry up and get on the plane!

After saying that, the female first mate turned around and left, slamming the door when she walked out.

This bitch... has a bad temper. Hound touched the stubble on his chin and turned to Ke Lan and said.

But I feel like he's not a bad person. Ke Lan nodded, Will you go back with me too?

Otherwise?... You are very lucky to be able to come back alive this time. Do you still remember the agreement before departure? Once any danger occurs, the operation must be stopped immediately. The hound said seriously, It's a pity... the doctor …”

Actually, we have succeeded. Ke Lan said.

Success? What do you mean?

Do you remember that stalagmite I mentioned?

It's...that thing that even the Seeds of Corrosion are afraid of?

Yes! That thing should still be there, right?

Here! I asked Layton to guard the equipment you brought, including the things in the backpack... The people on the boat didn't say anything. It was just the little brats from the Aurora Consortium who were clamoring for a share of the pie. Almost got into a fight.”

What happened next? Our people were not injured, were they? Was anything robbed? Ke Lan suddenly became nervous.

No, just relax. Hound waved his hands disapprovingly, The guy named Benson was quite arrogant at first, but Asano Akira used a knife to kill all the people on his head in one second. I shaved all the hair off, and then I became honest... If I say it, Asano Akira was too gentle, he should have shaved off the hair in his crotch as well... Uh, by the way, that stalagmite ,Any questions?

He can save Ivan.

How to save? The hound was stunned for a moment, You mean, use this stalagmite to nail Ivan like the second remains you encountered...

No, the remains have been completely alienated, so this method is used. An infection of Ivan's level can be suppressed by just knocking some fragments off the stalagmite and burying them in the body. The alienated cells of the Seed of Erosion.”

...will it work?

I am more than 90% sure this time. Ke Lan said, The corrosion seeds in the remains were suppressed for more than forty years, and it was not until I pulled out the stalagmites that they were resurrected, and the alienated cells in Ivan's body It hasn't even formed a 'nucleus' yet... maybe it can be eradicated directly using stalagmites.
