Ephemeral clouds and works

Chapter 212: Turning Point

    

pples gently exhaled a breath, communicating with the power within the Beast Mark, then began to transform snow into ice. The snow on the giant trees quickly melted and fused into countless icicles, p..."I know you must have your reasons, but I didn't expect you to join the Kuomintang."

Wu Lao sighed with emotion.

"Master Wu, all I want is to be an ordinary teacher who educates and nurtures students. Alas, fate has other plans for me."

Last time I accompanied you to the meeting, because my quick reaction helped them a lot. My superior said I have potential and took me away during last winter vacation.

He also threatened me that if I couldn't pass their training, I wouldn't be able to return to school alive.

Lan Ri was gritting her teeth and explaining.

"Were you also involved in the assassination of the Japanese military officer at Fukyun Lou last time"

U Lao asks directly.

Ripples shook her head hurriedly:

I'm not capable enough. A month isn't enough for me to learn all of this. At most, I could just be an assistant to them. And the KMT doesn't really trust me as a newcomer either.

They only told me to be at Fuk Yuen Building at that time and buy two dishes. They didn't tell me anything else.

It wasn't until I was taken by the Japanese that I truly understood my situation.

They clearly didn't have any intention of letting me come back alive. If it weren't for Lao Wu's face, I really would have...

Ripples wore a look of helplessness.

"Then you joined them"

"Old Wu, one person can't always rely on another. I can't always trouble you with everything."

Ripples lowered her eyes and spoke.

"And this time, I'm going in for an administrative role, so the danger level is low. If anything happens, well, being in the KMT's intelligence department, I could at least give you a heads up right away."

The ripples added another sentence.

"Don't worry so much, just take care of yourself."

Uncle Wu waved his hand and said.

"Wu Lao, I'm leaving school now and I'm sorry, but I won't be able to rent your house anymore. I'll move out in three days."

"There's no need to rush. The house is empty anyway, you can move in whenever you like."

The big boss said.

"I really like it there, so I'll shamelessly accept your kindness. However, the rent will definitely go up a bit."

Rinna intentionally brought up the house because she didn't want to move, of course, and she also didn't want to take advantage.

The two chatted for a few more minutes, then Lian Yi went to handle her resignation paperwork and handovers.

When she went to the office to pack her things, everyone was surprised, and Mr. Sun, who had always been at odds with Ripple, started being cryptic again.

You guys have no taste, do you This doesn't even need asking! Teacher Wu either found a good new partner or a good husband. These are things you can only envy.

Hearing this, the teacher who I had asked before looked a little embarrassed.

Ripple looked at the teacher, Sun, in front of her who was grasping every opportunity and made her sick. She smiled and said:

"This time, Mr. Sun really guessed right. I did find a better job, and there won't be many opportunities to meet everyone in the future. However, if Mr. Sun wants to see me, just let me know anytime."

"What do you mean I don't want to see you!"

Teacher Sun looked at me with disdain.

Then it won't be up to you anymore.

Liàn yī has tidied up her things and said with a smile.

"What kind of job did you get You seem so full of yourself."

Mr. Sun said unconcernedly.

"My new job is in the newly formed Kuomintang Special Action Unit. Although I'm just a desk job, it should be fine for you to come over for coffee."

When these words were uttered, Teacher Sun's face changed color. The female teachers around him fell silent for a moment.

"So, Sun Linyin, you better keep your mouth shut in front of me from now on. When you see me, just stay away and don't make me angry."

Liàn yī's words were very impolite. Sun Línlín's face changed colors like a palette, finally turning red. She didn't say a word this time.

The other teachers secretly rejoiced, they had long wanted to retort to Sun Linlin like this. But due to her being the vice principal's distant cousin, they had been more tolerant. This time seeing her so humiliated, they all felt a sense of relief.

Ripple picked up her personal belongings and said goodbye to the colleagues she could talk to, then left the school.

When the ripples returned to Hong Fei Road's residence, Shi Jiu spoke up:

"Now you've put yourself in a more dangerous environment, be more careful!"

“I have already completed the task. If I am killed in this world, why would I still expend my divine power”

Ripples this time directly asked.

As the tasker, completing the task eliminates the resentment of this realm and stabilizes the operation of the small world.

In this task, you have already completed the task of changing your own destiny. The culprit who harmed your original body is also dead. Now you can leave completely.

But now that you choose to die a natural death, this means that if you don't live to the end of your original body's lifespan after reversing your fate, any remaining time will need to be maintained by your own soul power.

But in the previous few worlds, I completed the mission and left. Did the original owner go back

Ripple raised an eyebrow and asked.

"The original soul could pay a greater price of its soul power to return and continue to control its own body. However, doing so would leave him with a weakened spirit, without the chance to reincarnate."

Therefore, most people choose to have their resentment eliminated and their wishes fulfilled before being reborn, rather than returning to the original world. So after you leave, it's the day they die a natural death.

"So, you're saying this tasker is coming back"

Ripple raised an eyebrow and asked.

She was still hesitating, as if searching for a better time to return to her own body.

The stone mill said in a roundabout way.

"Isn't that just trying to take advantage of a ready-made situation!"

Ripple smiled and said.

…"

"Why didn't you say that before"

The ripples continued to ask.

"Have you never asked..."

The ripples' eyes narrowed.

"Now you tell me."

"Ahem, as taskers, the benefits you gain from completing tasks are that your souls become increasingly solid and ultimately coalesce into physical bodies again."

This is similar to the ghost cultivators in the cultivation world. In my world, cultivators whose physical bodies were damaged would choose this way of cultivation.

"Well, that's about it."

Does the tasker have a physical body

Of course, some people who have achieved physical immortality will choose to return to their own world to make up for their regrets. Some find it more meaningful to do missions and continue to stay here to do missions. We don't interfere with the choices of mission takers.

"What standard must be met to regain a physical body Become an advanced tasker"

The ripples continued to ask.

Generally speaking, upgrading to an advanced tasker is a must, of course, this depends on the tasker's task completion rate.

For example, in the case of the female emperor's nation, you protected the empress's country and cultivated an outstanding heir. By this point, the original body's wishes had already been fulfilled.

And after you determined the true love of your original form, you walked the rest of his life with him, and bestowed upon him the title of imperial consort, and were buried with him.

This made the original body very satisfied, so the completion rate of the task was very high, and you benefited more in terms of your soul and spirit.

I understand, then I will do my best on the task!

If I were the original person, I wouldn't give up the opportunity to be reborn for a moment of pleasure.

"Why"

She's not me after all. I complete my missions not only with brute force, but also with the experience accumulated over a thousand years. She lacks that! just now You couldn't have missed it, even if you didn't see it."Ripple continued.First, the fire alarm went off, and then our monitoring equipment short-circuited, going completely black. We couldn'...
