Chapter 200 New Secondary Occupation
It makes sense. Zhou Ning nodded indifferently.
Sherlock thought for a moment and then said, "I'll take you to St. Raymond's Church to see Mr. Chien. I might need your help with something later."
"Ask me for help?" Zhou Ning's eyes flashed. If he guessed correctly, this was another hidden plot. Along the way, Li Tie had given him the most tasks, and of course, the most tricky ones. Even now, he still had a giant task that stuck with him.
I took another look at the task panel that I hadn't paid attention to for a long time. The plagiarist task of Literary Life (IV) was temporarily sealed by myself. In addition to the current (6/9) for History Lovers, the (3/9) for A Better Tomorrow that requires becoming a great hero has become (4/9) with the clearance of the last round of Fierce Tiger Lu Bu. There is a glimmer of hope.
The extra progress for history enthusiasts should be obtained after obtaining the Traveler's Ring. The most annoying thing is the Giant quest given by Li Tie, which is currently at 23.9% progress and is nowhere near completion.
This is a pit!!!!
At this moment, the door outside creaked open, and Polly, whom he had met several times before, walked in with a strange young man in red clothes.
For some reason, Zhou Ning felt that the young man in front of him seemed somewhat familiar, but he couldn't remember where he had seen him.
Compared to the last time, Polly had a round badge on his chest, marking him as one of the elite members of the Sun Guard, the "Corona Guard." It was clear that his strength had greatly improved.
"Good morning, Mr. Wayne."
Upon seeing Zhou Ning, Polly's cold face broke into a smile, and he greeted him. However, the young man next to him still had an aristocratic arrogance on his face, looking him up and down, as if waiting for him to initiate a greeting.
Zhou Ningke had no intention of tolerating the typical mysterious arrogance of this old-fashioned nobleman of Brighton, and he glanced at him lightly.
This... the other party suddenly felt all the hairs on his body stand up, and he stood there trembling.
"You two stay here first. Wayne and I will go to St. Raymond's Cathedral first." Sherlock naturally noticed the small situation at the scene and said quickly.
"Okay, Captain." Polly nodded.
After Zhou Ning and Sherlock left the scene, the noble young man finally came to his senses and asked warily and puzzledly, "Mr. Polly, who is this man?"
"He is Wayne Stewell." Polly curled his lips with mixed feelings.
The first time I met Wayne Stewell was during the Elvis incident a few months ago. At that time, he was just an ordinary-looking student, not as handsome as myself. But a few months later, although I took the devil fruit and became a Corona Guardian, Wayne had become a legend in this city, and his strength had left me far behind.
"Wayne Stewell?"
Thinking of all the legends and rumors about the other party in Dockland, and then thinking back to the handsome and tall young gentleman just now, the noble young man felt that every move of the other party was so intimidating that people dared not look directly at him.
I couldn't help but get goosebumps all over my body.
At this time, Zhou Ning and Sherlock had already walked to the street entrance. They asked their coachman to drive back temporarily, got on the guard's spacious standard carriage, and drove towards St. Raymond's Cathedral.
Sherlock let out a breath, leaned against the carriage wall, and smiled, "That man was Kyle Robbins, a member of the 'Wisdom' Robbins family, a user of the Deer Deer Fruit, and a day-guardian who brought his Devil Fruit in at his own expense. I'm temporarily managing him. He's a bit arrogant, but he's not a bad person."
It turned out to be him. Zhou Ning suddenly realized that it was no wonder that he felt so familiar. He was the one who used the Modoric Cube to "cheat" him out of a devil fruit at the gathering of extraordinary people.
Until now, I still don’t know what this block is used for or how to open it!
"The Robbins family? Is he a family-trained knight?" Zhou Ning couldn't help but ask.
"He's a branch of the Robbins family, so he probably doesn't have the ability to inherit the family motto." Sherlock shrugged and said, "Sometimes family mottos are like beautiful women on the street. They look beautiful, but they don't belong to you."
It's a good analogy, but it would have been hard on Kyle Robbins.
Zhou Ning nodded to show that he understood.
The ability of clan training is not inherited by the family unit, perhaps it also depends on blood relationship?
He is now very interested in Kyle Robbins. Perhaps this person will be a good breakthrough.
After chatting for a while, Sherlock gave Zhou Ning a brief introduction to the Robbins family's splendour. From Sherlock's words, Zhou Ning learned that this family's history was almost as old as the ancient Kingdom of Farik itself, witnessing more than a thousand years of history from the ancient Kingdom of Farik to the Kingdom of Bryston.
At one point, Lord Robbins was even a good friend of Sir Archibald.
Does he also know a certain Pirate King? Zhou Ning couldn't help but wonder with amusement.
Not long after, the carriage stopped at the gate of Westershire Church Square. The two got off the carriage and walked towards St. Raymond's Cathedral not far away.
Although it is still morning, today is Mass day and there are already crowds of people on the Westershall Church Square.
As one of the largest orthodox churches in the world of Apocalypse, the Ascetic Church does not have many holidays. The most important one is Christmas Day on July 7rd every year, followed by Summer Holiday when the day is the longest and the night is the shortest, and then there is the normal mass held every Saturday.
Zhou Ning followed Sherlock into the church through the side door, where a priest was reading and sharing scriptures.
In this atmosphere, as a nominal believer in the Sun Goddess, Zhou Ning could only follow Sherlock's example and stop for a moment, look at the sun emblem on the altar and the nail in the middle of the emblem that was said to have nailed the god of death to death, and then closed his eyes.
A few minutes later, the mass ended. Zhou Ning stood up with Sherlock and found Qian West in the underground Sun Watch headquarters.
After hearing Zhou Ning's purpose, Qien West agreed without hesitation: "No problem. We already owe you a lot, and we have a foundation of trust between us. From today on, you will be the advisor of the Sun Guardians."
He stood up, took a standard contract from the bookshelf, picked up the feather pen, changed a few lines, and then pushed it to Zhou Ning.
"Then take a look at this contract and see if there are any problems."
There aren't many clauses above, which are basically what Zhou Ning mentioned just now. He is not forced to come to work, and he only needs to help when his help is needed. However, there are corresponding confidentiality regulations, and he cannot disclose the internal affairs of the Day Guardians to the outside world.
The contract period is three years, and the treatment is the same as that of ordinary Day Watch members. The salary is based on the captain level, 300 Victa per month, and the pension is 10 times that.
That's quite generous. But forget about the pension, I don't intend to die in the line of duty.
After rereading the terms, Zhou Ning looked at Qien West and said, "No problem."
Qi'en pointed to the quill he had just put down and said, "Then sign it."
Zhou Ning picked up the quill and signed his name at the bottom of the contract: Wayne Stewell.
The contracts in this world are binding to a certain extent. The moment Zhou Ning signed the contract, he once again felt the power of the contract.
A prompt came on the panel:
"You have joined the Sun Guardians and acquired a new subclass: Sun Guardian. Your reputation with the Sun Guardians has increased by 3000 points and is currently Respected."
