Chapter 906: 108: Spirit World Invasion_6
“This gives them a foundation to counter the spirits…”
“Of course, I’m telling you this because we might become colleagues in the future, you know~!”
He Min said with a smile, “Our employees at Global Communication are basically participants and witnesses of Spirit World invasion events…”
Zhao Yu nodded, thinking of the fact that he was now in a sixth-tier world, he couldn’t help but ask, “You just mentioned employees I saw in the first-tier Spirit World, does that mean the Spirit World is also divided into tiers?”
“Of course!”
He Min nodded, “The Spirit World is divided into six tiers, and the strength of the spirits in each tier is incomparable. The weakest are in the first tier, which is what ordinary people generally encounter…”
“But there are exceptions. Some ordinary people, who are less fortunate, might encounter invasions from the second or even third-tier Spirit World…”
Zhao Yu asked in confusion, “If that’s the case, then why don’t those more powerful individuals just sweep through the first, second, and third-tier Spirit Worlds?”
He Min shrugged, “Firstly, each Spirit World is not the same. For example, the Spirit World you’re encountering right now only extends over White Cloud Mountain…”
“Secondly, would it not be a waste for big shots from the fourth, fifth, or even sixth-tier to come deal with first, second, and third-tier spirits?”
He Min said indifferently, “You should know, the incident you experienced today had at least over five hundred casualties, but it is only rated as a level-one Spirit World invasion event…”
“The big shots have to face level-4, level-5, level-6 events…”
“A level-4 event could mean that an entire city might fall…”
“Level-5 events could even destroy smaller nations…”
This made Zhao Yu think of the recent history of Titan Star, which had seen the demise of hundreds of countries over the past century.
Perhaps, the truth was that they were destroyed by Spirit World invasions, but to hide it from ordinary people, they blamed it on war.
“Then, if like now, going back to the Spirit World through that vortex and making contact with those spirits again, is there still a chance to obtain the Spiritual Power key?” Zhao Yu inquired, concerned about whether he could cultivate his abilities or not.
“You can’t!”
He Min shook her head, “The Spirit World is not something you can enter whenever you want. Either you’re involved when the event occurs, or you are a Spiritualist…”
She said regretfully, “I almost became a Spiritualist myself. If I had, I’d be on easy street by now…”
“What, do Spiritualists get paid a lot?” Zhao Yu casually asked.
“Of course, they do!”
He Min paused for a moment, then continued, “What’s most important is that Spiritualists have a lot of power, or rather, some special privileges. Once someone becomes a Spiritualist, if there’s an issue at home, you can just make a direct call, and officials from any city will cooperate…”
“You can imagine how in demand Spiritualists are…”
Zhao Yu smiled and said, “But the death rate among Spiritualists isn’t low, is it?”
“That’s true too…”
Suddenly, He Min no longer felt regretful and shook her head, “Yes, if I had become a Spiritualist back then, I might already be dead, not here chatting leisurely with you…”
From the conversation, Zhao Yu learned that He Min had two salaries, one for her regular job as a flight attendant and another from Global Communication.
The two salaries combined were enough for her to live very comfortably in Yan Country.
Most importantly, the employment at Global Communication was like an iron rice bowl; losing the job was not a concern.
“Zhao Yu, since you are a witness to the level-one Spirit World invasion event at White Cloud Mountain, coded HPJYBYU1650, you now have two choices…”
“One, sign a confidentiality agreement and never reveal to any ordinary person about the Spirit World, spirits, or this experience. Reward: One hundred thousand yuan. Punishment: Treason… Execution.”
“What’s the second option?”
“The second option is to sign a confidentiality agreement, join Global Communication, and become a clandestine logistics employee…”
Zhao Yu nodded slightly then asked, “Is it possible for an ordinary person to experience multiple Spirit World invasions?”
“It’s certainly possible…”
He Min said with a smile, “Sun Xia who went in to deal with today’s event is just like that…”
“In just three years, she experienced four Spirit World invasions. The first three times she was lucky—she neither died nor encountered a spirit. The fourth time, she fought with a spirit and then activated the Spiritual Power key…”
“I see!”
Zhao Yu nodded and said, “Then I choose the second option. I want to become an employee of the company!”
“Good, let’s start by signing the confidentiality agreement according to standard procedure…”
“As for joining the company, I’ll report it normally. Other departments will review and study it to decide how to arrange your new cover job…”
“After all, you’re aware that in addition to being flight attendants, our logistics can involve roles like telecommunications base station installers, attendants, mapping surveyors, and so on…”
After signing all contracts, Zhao Yu finally inquired about the status of his other classmates.
He Min then opened the relevant software to check and after looking, she sighed, “Unfortunately, your two classmates didn’t make it…”
“Bai Hao, Cai Siyue…”
“However, two of your classmates joined the company and became martial staff…”
“Martial staff? Who?!”
Zhao Yu asked curiously, indicating that someone had been in close contact with a spirit.
“Yang Xiaoying and Hu Yapeng…”
