Chapter 1066: Direct Upgrade to Galaxy Level
Feng Bujue knew the way very quickly, and Yu Chaolian was not a maze, so he arrived at the coffee shop on Fifteenth Street in the living area very quickly.
To be honest, if it weren't for the words "coffee shop" written on the sign (written in Universe and translated by the system), Brother Jue would never have imagined that the store in front of him was doing this.
Obviously, the coffee shop here in Yuchaolian is very different from the "quiet and comfortable" shop that people on earth have in mind...
When Jue Ge pushed the door in, the first thing that came into his sight was a ring-shaped bar counter that was tens of meters long. The bar itself was a circle of fixed tabletop, and next to the tabletop was a conveyor belt; that conveyor belt There are various snacks and drinks on the table, and guests sitting at the bar can take what they want to eat.
"What's going on? Revolving sushi?" This is the first time Feng Bujue has seen coffee sold in this way.
In fact, not only is the sales style here not like a coffee shop, but the atmosphere inside the store is also as noisy as a wet market... everyone is chatting loudly and smoking casually (there are thousands of legal tobacco products circulating in this universe) Tens of thousands, smokers on different planets have different highs due to different physiological structures), and some aliens make surprisingly loud noises when eating (not intentional).
"Hey! Poker Man~" Just as Brother Jue was stunned, the Tinfoil Man sitting seven or eight meters away waved to him and shouted, "Here it is~ I've reserved a seat for you."
"Ah... here we come." Feng Bujue saw the other party following the sound and walked over.
The Tinfoil Man is still the same as before, wearing an extremely shabby tinfoil armor. In terms of appearance...the main difference between their "Mud Starmen" and humans is that their eye sockets are extremely large, and other features are very similar.
"Uh... your coffee shop here is so different from the ones I know..." Feng Bujue couldn't help but say as soon as he sat down.
"Haha...many of Earth's heroes said that when they first came here." Tinfoil Man smiled, "But most of them quickly fell in love with this 'cosmic' way of doing business."
As he said this. A charred corpse passed by gracefully on the conveyor belt in front of them...
Although Feng Bujue also knew that it was impolite to look around when talking to others, he still couldn't control his eyes and followed the corpse...
"Uh..." Brother Jue said with the corner of his mouth twitching, "Did something strange happen just now?"
"Oh, those are snacks from environmentalists." Tinfoil Man explained, "Don't worry, they are all pollution-free."
"Environmental Stars..." Feng Bujue's balls started to ache as soon as he heard these four words, "Are they the ones with super long names and look like zombies..."
"Well, yes." Tinfoil Man continued, "So have you ever made friends with environmental stars?"
"I can't talk about making friends... I just met one when I was doing the hero level test..." Feng Bujue replied, "I remember his name is... Embarrassing Spicy Chicken Silk·Hanlin That's not what you said in bed last night. He also added a lot of stunts. Life is so short. Why do you have to fall in love so hard? Love is emotionally moved. Animal physics science students abba can be resurrected. Hissssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss) Brain-Eating Man] is coming..."
Brother Jue himself doesn't know why he wrote down this name so clearly and completely...
"Oh. For an environmental star, it's really a short and powerful name." Tinfoil Man commented after listening to it.
"Heh...hehe..." Brother Jue laughed dryly and decided to change the topic, "What...talking about the hero level test..."
"You don't need to say anything." Tinfoil Man interrupted him, "I know what you are going to say." He smiled, "Hehe... you can relax, your true strength... we, the Supreme Council, know it well." " He paused and said, "Placing you at the 'city level'... is what Toad Man means."
"Oh~" As soon as Feng Bujue heard the three words "Toad Man", he deliberately made a "suddenly enlightened" expression.
In fact, when the test was just completed, Brother Jue had already speculated that he would be assigned to the "city level" because someone was interfering with it. As for who is the most suspicious of this matter...that is of course Toad Man.
but. When the Tinfoil Man made the matter clear, Feng Bujue still chose to pretend... He wanted to hear what the other party would say next.
"This matter... is not entirely what he meant." Two seconds later, the Tinfoil Man continued, "Actually... I am also involved."
"Oh." Feng Bujue responded with the same word and a completely different tone.
"I hope you won't have any prejudice against Toad Man because of this. I know him very well..." Tinfoil Man continued, "He has always been like this, with a pessimistic attitude towards everything. I didn't mean to target anyone. ”
"Yes, I understand." Feng Bujue said, "I am the same kind of person." He shrugged, "If I were in his position... I would not easily let someone from other universes and origins The unknown person immediately took up a high position in the Yuchao League."
"Haha, that's good." Tinfoil Man smiled, "In short, now that you have proven yourself through a [B-level crisis], our committee unanimously believes that you should at least be promoted to the level of a 'Galaxy Level Hero'. Otherwise...it would be overkill." As he said this, he picked up a plate of food on the conveyor belt in front of him and put it in front of Brother Jue, "Oh, look! That's what I told you in the email before. This is a new product.”
Feng Bujue stared at the spiral stool-like substance in front of him for a few seconds, then took another sniff...
He smelled a very subtle smell...
"This..." Brother Jue's eyes stayed on the "snack" and he said without raising his head, "...What is it made of?"
"This is made from fruits on your earth." Tinfoil Man has a long lifespan and is knowledgeable, so he knows a lot. "He is the one who is known as the 'Fruit King'..."
"Durian?" Feng Bujue answered.
"Yes, durian." Tinfoil Man said, "Recently, durian-flavored foods have become very popular in various galaxies. The governments of many planets have begun to try to grow them locally, and many famous interstellar chefs have begun to use this kind of food. Use the ingredients to develop the dishes." He said, stepping forward and taking a deep breath at the thing. "This unprecedented contrasting experience of smell and taste... is simply addictive."
"I understand the truth..." Brother Jue replied with empty eyes, "But what's going on with the shape?"
"Huh? What's wrong with this shape?" Tinfoil Man asked, "Isn't this the classic 'ice cream shape'?"
"That's it..." Feng Bujue muttered, and then he actually picked up the thing and took a bite.
"How's it going? I didn't lie to you, did I?" Tinfoil Man asked immediately, "Awesome, right?"
Feng Bujue didn't answer the question immediately, and his expression... became very complicated.
Because at this moment, he felt that some of his perceptions had been subverted...
"Foul smell, shit-like shape, but..." Brother Jue thought in his mind. "It tastes so good..."
After a while, Feng Bujue swallowed the food in his mouth, looked at the Tinfoil Man with a serious expression and said, "The snacks here...are very expensive, aren't they?"
"It's okay. Even based on the income of a city-level hero, it's not expensive." Tinfoil Man replied.
"Income?" Feng Bujue seemed to have heard a strange word, "What? So our Yuchao League heroes still get paid?"
"Yes." Tinfoil Man replied in a matter-of-fact tone. After finishing speaking, his expression changed slightly and he continued. "Oh... yes, you have joined the Yuchao League for less than three universe years, so you don't know yet." As he said this, he picked up a plate of strange snacks and a cup of strange looking snacks on the conveyor belt. A drink like lava. Putting it in front of him, "Our Yuchao League will settle the 'hero points' regularly. The settlement cycle is once every one hundred and sixty-eight universe weeks (approximately equal to one week of earth time); in addition to the hero level you are in In addition to the 'basic points', you can get corresponding 'task points' for each task released by the alliance."
"Then what are these points for?" Feng Bujue asked carefully while stuffing durian-flavored snacks into his mouth.
"Hero points can be used as currency in the Yuchaolian headquarters and all its branches." Tinfoil Man explained patiently, "After all, we heroes also need to eat... Although our medical care and accommodation are not It’s free. Communication and transportation also charge very low fees, but it’s impossible to completely abolish currency. Some places still have to pay, otherwise it will cause a lot of problems.”
"Then... the points are useless outside the Yuchao League and its affiliated institutions?" Brother Jue asked again.
"Not necessarily..." Tinfoil Man replied, "Many city-level or planet-level heroes who are resident on their own planets have actual financial difficulties. For such heroes, the alliance usually arranges for them to use a job to cover their identities. work', and convert the points into currency that can be circulated on their planet according to their needs." He took a sip of the unknown drink and said, "As for people like you who are resident at the Yuchaolian headquarters. Or the heroes of the branch... you can definitely live without worries about food and clothing by relying on points; if one day for some reason... mostly because you want to get married and start a family or are old and infirm... you want to wash your hands in a golden basin and leave Yuchao. If you connect, we will convert all your remaining points into the currency you need and send them to you.”
"Oh...I see." Feng Bujue had already finished his plate of snacks when he responded.
He didn't take any more things from the conveyor belt because he wasn't sure which things he could "eat" or... could be digested by his "Earthling" body.
"Of course, in the final analysis... heroes are not a lucrative profession, and the points system is just a basic life guarantee provided by the alliance." Tinfoil Man continued, "In fact, at the beginning of the establishment of Yuchao League, we There is no concept of 'reward' at all, and there is no division between 'hero level' and 'crisis level'; these systems... are gradually improved as the alliance grows. "
"It's conceivable... you and Toad Man must have faced and resolved countless problems and conflicts over the years." Feng Bujue continued.
"Yeah..." Tin Foil Man chewed the snack and replied sadly, "Many people envy us for not having to go out on the 'Supreme Committee', but they don't understand..."
"Going out on the field is much easier than dealing with internal affairs." Brother Jue interrupted him and said what Tin Foil Man wanted to say directly.
"Hehe...you are indeed a smart person and a sensible person." Tin Foil Man laughed, "Poker Man, I am very optimistic about you. Maybe one day you will have a seat in the Supreme Committee."
Ordinary heroes would be a little excited to hear such words.
But Feng Bujue seemed to be unperturbed by praise or criticism, and just replied politely in a weak tone: "Ah...thank you for your advice."
…………
Feng Bujue and Tin Foil Man chatted in that "coffee shop" for an hour.
During this hour, Brother Jue found out a lot of information about Yu Chaolian and tried a few plates of strange snacks.
Before the two parted, Ketas (the name of the Tinfoil Man) said that he would immediately upgrade Brother Jue's level from "city level" to "galaxy level".
And Feng Bujue said - "I don't care about the level and points, I just want to deal with a few A-level or B-level crises as soon as possible."
Then, they parted ways...
Tinfoil Man went back to his official duties, and Feng Bujue returned to the hero dormitory.
"Huh..." After returning to room z250 and closing the door, Brother Jue took a long breath and said, "When I first heard the word 'points', I thought I had discovered some substantial reward that could be accumulated, but... Isn't this just a high-level 'food ticket'?" He sighed and thought to himself, "Alas... It's better to just give me money..."
Indeed, if Feng Bujue is given enough funds (enough here means a lot... or a lot), then he will definitely be able to make a career in this universe (such as setting up his own evil research institute).
Unfortunately, this assumption is not valid for the time being; and Jue Ge has no intention of joining the villain camp to earn rewards... because, so far, the villains he has encountered in this universe are either funny or weak... I always feel that joining the villain camp is tantamount to seeking death.
"There is no other way, I still have to deal with as many high-level "crisis events" as possible, so that I can get in touch with high-level things..." Feng Bujue thought as he returned to the computer and inserted his ID card, "Let me see... what a galaxy-level hero can do..." (To be continued)
