Be dragged into the room by the succubus

If a watcher were to choose the mechanism he hates the most in the watch club, more than [-]% of the operators would all say the same answer——

【Compulsory task】

It is a mechanism that causes the most headaches and confusion to all Watchers, and they love and hate it.

Produced by [Eye of Perception], one of the three wonders of the Overwatch Society, with family affection.

The release time is uncertain, the trigger conditions are unknown, and the personnel requirements are unknown.

As the literal meaning says, this is a "compulsory" task that cannot be refused.

No refusal, no evasion, no resistance.

But if it's just like this, it doesn't seem to be an unacceptable thing for Overwatch Club operators who are completing various tasks on weekdays.

Anyway, on weekdays, the bosses above the head set tasks, and all they have to do is execute them.

This seems to make no difference to the tool people who have deducted the words "reject" and "evade" from the dictionary.

The things to do are the same as usual, nothing different.

As tool people who are used to being persecuted, do you expect them to make any resistance?

No, the adaptability of human beings is terribly high.

Then why, the mandatory missions still make the watchers, who are accustomed to tool people, complain endlessly?

Because, the problem does not actually lie in the word "compulsion", and accepting tasks is not a problem, the key lies in the tasks themselves.

The requirements of the tasks are unreasonable, the gap between the tasks is huge, and the conditions for achieving them are confusing...

This is no excuse, the difference between tasks is surprisingly large.

For some people, the request is very simple, it may just be a small thing to do.

Such as transporting an item, or staying in a certain place for a while, or even sending a message to a person.

Maybe nothing special will happen until the end of the mission.

Calm and quiet, nothing happened.

But for some people, that task request is like a pervert.

This is not only an abnormality in the difficulty of the task, but also an extreme abnormality in the requirements.

The most famous and widely circulated case in recent years comes from a poor civilian operator.

His mission requirement for that year was to hit the ass of their branch chief severely.

The civilian officer at that time was a boy who had just turned [-], and the branch manager was a highly respected old legend...

By the way, the branch manager looks like a bald and muscular old man who is nearly seventy years old.

This task, in terms of requirements and execution difficulty, is simply full without reason.

Oh, you ask the result?

No one knows the process, but the result is well known.

Successful.

It's amazing.

The civilian operator succeeded, and he miraculously completed the mandatory mission that year.

We don't know if there was any story between him and the branch chief, but I heard that the civil servant seems to have become the second in command of their branch.

Do you think there is any shady deal in this?

I can't say.

And such an example is not a special case, accounting for almost half of the proportion.

Mandatory tasks are full of randomness like this, and you never know what the next mandatory task that falls on you will be like.

Not that no one has complained that such a task is pointless, calling it a waste of time and effort.

But in the face of such complaints, [Eye of Observation] never responded, and continued to deliver tasks as usual.

Don't bird them at all.

And the high-level watchmen ignored the watchmen's reaction and chose to ignore it.

As for why...

One year, a newly promoted legend who was born with orc blood couldn't bear it anymore, and said something like this:

"Stop being so noisy! Shut up!"

"You're bothering me, and I'm still bothering you!"

"Go, go, go! Get out of my way!"

"Do you think legends don't have mandatory missions?"

The answer is yes.

[Eye of Observation] Even the legends have not let go, and will still give them tasks.

The legends also complained, but they also didn't get a response.

You guys love to complain and complain, so let me just count it out!

After learning of this secret, the dissatisfaction of the watchmen gradually subsided.

Oh, look, even legends are not exempt as much as we are...

That's all right!

Not to mention completely accepting compulsory missions, but accepting them as a type of routine missions.

To some extent, mandatory tasks tailored for everyone are actually the fairest.

Will not favor any one person, will not maliciously target a certain person.

Although this fairness is not a happy thing.

So back to the beginning, since you can't refuse, what if the mission fails?

Will there be punishment?

The answer is also very unexpected - no.

You won't be demoted, you won't be maliciously targeted, and you won't bear the contemptuous gaze of others.

Compulsory missions are demanding, but there are no penalties for losers.

However, some mandatory tasks are life-threatening, and it can lead to catastrophe if you are not careful.

In fact, Ning Feng has seen the case of forced task failure recently.

Margaret's team had accepted a team mandatory task before, and then failed.

No, that's not accurate.

They didn't lose members, and they also got the task reward, so it can't be said that it was a complete failure.

It can only be said that only a part of the task has been achieved, and the task evaluation obtained is not high.

And after talking about the various difficulties and shortcomings of the compulsory mission, is there really nothing wrong with this outrageous thing?

Yes, there are.

The good news is that the rewards for mandatory missions are just as tailored as the mission requirements!

It may be a weapon, a bottle of potion, a treasure map, or even just a clue of a sentence.

The differences are equally huge, but these rewards all have one thing in common.

That is, at a certain point in the future, it will be of great help to the recipient.

Like a prophet.

This kind of magical feature makes the mandatory task even more mysterious in the hearts of the watchers.

Mysterious.

As for the reasons for the existence of mandatory tasks, there are many opinions, true and false.

Among those, Ning Feng has a saying that he thinks is the most reliable——

[Eye of Observation] is adjusting the balance.

Through the assignment of tasks, it seems that they are trying to balance something between rewards and punishments.

No one knows the details, but the clear feeling of being arranged makes people feel unfathomable and uneasy.

It has been an hour since he received this notice, Ning Feng still kept his posture of sitting in front of the table, frowning and thinking carefully.

"Tsk."

Ning Feng did not resist accepting the task itself.

He is also a tool man who has undergone strict training and leaves the factory, and has no complaints about performing tasks.

Ning Feng understood what he was fighting for and how many people his actions could save, so he accepted it.

Mandatory task This is a part that must be experienced as a watchman, no one can escape, even Shirene can't help him.

It's just the task of the watch club.

The feeling of being arranged is extremely strong.

And this feeling made Ning Feng a little unhappy.

Swinging down hard, the fist stopped the moment it hit the table, and finally just hammered lightly.

thump.

Beating and beating is not the way to solve the problem, it is meaningless except to make noise and waste.

"How could this be?"

Ning Feng thought that he had nothing to do with the "Star Chaser" contest anymore.

Ignored the invitation to the sword-bearer, rejected Sophie's invitation, even Shireen's invitation to watch the ceremony was botched...

Everything is clearly arranged, who knows that such a mechanical seance-like thing will suddenly happen at this time.

It was as if a hand was controlling everything invisible, pulling Ning Feng who was about to deviate from the track directly.

"A coincidence? No, I don't believe it."

Really so coincidental?

Who doesn't want me to spend these days in peace and stability?

dong dong.

Tapping his fingertips on the table, Ning Feng began to think about the worst situation.

Why don't you want me to stay in peace?

What good would it do him to let me take risks?

no, before that...

The speed of finger tapping accelerated, and Ning Feng's brows frowned even tighter.

"How did he know that I chose to play badly?"

fingertips.

"...Is someone watching me?"

There was a feeling of chills on the back, and the feeling of disobedience that had been ignored in my heart seemed to be suddenly brought up.

Who is it?

Look for it from the identity of the watcher, from the identity of the sword bearer...etc!

【Sword Holder】

"The ones who really know my identity as the sword bearer now are... the one-eyed adjudicator, No. 86, and Iger."

"Among the three, Iger doesn't know the specific identity of my watcher, so I can ignore it for now."

"Number 86, who knows my true identity, and even the identity of the sword-bearer, should be able to guess a little bit, but he has already made an oath and cannot tell outsiders..."

Ning Feng narrowed his eyes slightly, and Ning Feng recalled the adjudicator wearing the one-eyed proof mask.

Mysterious, even Ning Feng's body can only feel unfathomable in front of him.

"Could it be him? But why keep watching me?"

Just because of that 【Word of Judgment】?

And, now there is another problem.

When did he start watching, and how much did he see?

It's creepy when you think about it.

"Even now, is there?"

Closing his eyes, Ning Feng tried his best to feel a possible gaze.

perceiving...

The superimposition of the perception of the succubus and the angel, Ning Feng tried his best to find...

It really made him notice a gaze!

However, from the shadows under your feet...

Ning Feng: ...Who are you?

A clear laughter like a silver bell echoed in Ning Feng's heart, and his eyes turned into deep darkness in an instant.

This darkness is not frightening, but has a long-lost warmth and tranquility.

And in this silence, a black cat with gorgeous fur sat upright, smiled and waved to Ning Feng.

"Go."

When Ning Feng was sluggish, the black cat smiled and narrowed its eyes, repeating:

"Go and participate, boy."

Hehehe~

Laughing, the black cat jumped to his side, raised its front paw and patted the back of his hand.

"By the way, you have done a good job recently, I am very optimistic about you~"

click!

The darkness was shattered, Ning Feng still stayed where he was, everything he saw just now seemed to be an illusion.

"........."

Lowering his head, Ning Feng's expression twitched as he looked at the imprint of the little plum blossom remaining on the back of his hand.

After a long time, he finally choked out a sentence:

"What are you..."

Is it a deep sleep, or is it awake and peeping here?

Stamped his feet at the shadow, Ning Feng really wanted to curse.

Bah!

Don't let me go offline!

Come out and fight!

"How will you do it?"

An illusory light and shadow appeared from behind, and an angel in a white dress appeared silently, looking at Ning Feng who was acting out of breath, he asked calmly:

"Would you like to follow her advice?"
