Mythical Professions are all my employees

Chapter 102 Gu Yiyun advances to the next level, acquiring a new skill: Frost!Chapter 102 Gu Yiyun advances to the next level, acquiring a new skill: Frost!
”Gu Yiyun has finally broken through to level 1...”

Looking at yesterday’s summary report, Qin Fang in the Gulu Cave breathed a long sigh of relief.

Gu Yiyun, an employee who hadn’t given him any experience for over ten days, finally broke through to level 1.

Immediately, not only did all of Frost Prisoner’s existing skills upgrade from lv1 to lv2, but it also gained a new skill.

……

【Winter Nova: Unleashes a burst of extremely cold energy centered on the caster, dealing frost damage and a brief ’freeze’ effect (interrupting spellcasting/actions) to all enemies within the area.】

[Consumable: 500 MP]

Cooldown: 5 minutes

……

This skill caught Qin Fang’s eye; it was actually an area-of-effect crowd control skill!
As expected, the Frost Prisoner class is very strong, combining offense and defense, and now it also has crowd control...

To be fair, epic-level classes are all pretty good.

This made Qin Fang even more excited...

If epic-level epics are this powerful, how powerful must legendary-level epics be?

He looked at the headhunting firm’s skills.

Cooldown period: two more days.

His corporate reputation has accumulated to 1155 over the past few days... It will reach 1200 after tomorrow’s settlement.

This is a perfect opportunity to recruit a legend!
The first legendary class...

”I have both damage and control now... the only thing I’m lacking is a defensive class... I hope my first legendary character will be a defensive one...”

Qin Fang thought expectantly.

I checked the panel again; level 12...

Unfortunately, the upgrades are still too slow.

In three days, the powerful mage maintained a stable output, and Xiao You also started dealing damage after advancing, but she only leveled up 2 times...

This shows how difficult it is to upgrade.

Reaching level 20... conservatively speaking, it will take more than a month, right?

If he’s like this, then it goes without saying what others are like.

There is a long way to go.

He shook his head and continued upgrading.

……

When Qin Fang left Gulu Cave, it was already noon the next day. He stretched and looked at the bustling crowd outside the dungeon, and a smile appeared on his face.

Humans and centaurs have gradually adapted to the new way of getting along. After a brief period of arrogance in the early stages, humans have slowly returned to normalcy and no longer provoke centaurs unless necessary. The people of Xia Kingdom are not the kind of people who like to start trouble.

The centaurs were initially a little unbalanced, but they gradually adjusted and adapted over time.

Currently, both sides can basically maintain a peaceful coexistence and keep to themselves.

As for the situation where the centaurs would frequently provoke humans, it has never happened again.

This made many people realize that... daring to fight is the only way to achieve peace.

However, humans are still not allowed to enter the cities of the centaurs. Human cities, in turn, do not allow centaurs to enter…

After all, they are a different race.

Moreover, they are a different race with reproductive isolation.

There is no such thing as assimilation.

The conflict is only temporarily shelved; given enough time, the accumulated conflicts will still erupt.

Fortunately, it’s not a big problem in the short term.

……

Qin Fang returned to Tieya City and went straight home.

As soon as Qin Fang arrived at the door, he was stunned for a moment, because a figure in a flowing white dress was standing there smiling at him.

”I’m home?”

She spoke with a smile.

Qin Fang was stunned for a moment before he quickly stepped forward and asked, ”Sister, what brings you here?”

Qin Yue lifted the bag in her hand, which contained some fresh ingredients, and said with a smile, ”I said last time I’d let you try my cooking, and you said you’d come next time... but you never came. I had no choice but to come by myself... Luckily, the headmistress knows where you live.”

She was smiling happily, and she looked beautiful.

Qin’s heart skipped a beat.

”You should have called me before you came. If I wasn’t home, you would have waited for nothing.”

Qin Fang said helplessly.

”It’s okay, I’m not in a hurry anyway... I might as well take a look around... There are so many things I’ve only heard of before, but never seen...”

Suddenly being able to ’see’ the world, every day was new to her, and every place and thing was new to her.

Qin Fang paused for a moment, then said helplessly, ”Alright... then let’s try my cooking today. Come on, let’s go inside.”

Qin Fang opened the door and welcomed Qin Yue inside.

Qin Yue entered, looked around, and asked curiously, ”Do you and Xiao You live here?”

Qin Fang nodded, then looked at the cramped and messy room that hadn’t been cleaned for several days, and felt a little embarrassed: ”The house is a bit messy...”

”Is Xiaoyou no longer in Iron Teeth City?”

Qin Yue suddenly asked.

After a short silence, Qin Fang nodded: ”Mm.”

”really……”

She suddenly realized, and then laughed, ”Xiao You isn’t here, and you’re so lazy, it’s no wonder you wouldn’t bother cleaning... I’ll help you tidy up in a bit.”

”No need, no need,” Qin Fang quickly refused.

”Why are you being so formal?” Qin Yue winked at him and smiled, ”You’re my boss. I might not be able to help with other things, but can’t I help with this little thing?”

Before Qin Fang could speak, Qin Yue had already walked straight to the kitchen: ”Alright, just relax and wait for lunch.”

She tucked a strand of hair behind her ear and then calmly got to work.

Qin Fang wanted to say something several times, but in the end he could only smile helplessly and let it be...

……

boom!
The Flame Dragon Bullet exploded, and several wild beasts howled in the flames before turning into fireballs that burst into many orbs of light.

Lin Fan stepped forward, picked up the ball of light, and gently exhaled.

Looking at the stats... after these few days of leveling up, his level has reached 7. The Epic class is worlds apart from the previous Chef class; they’re simply incomparable.

This world, which he once thought did not belong to him, has now completely opened its doors to him.

But Lin Fan felt a sense of bewilderment...

When he was a chef, he at least had some colleagues, and he could chat and talk with them occasionally.

But after becoming an epic class, he suddenly became all alone.

After faking his death, he dared not contact any of his former friends, classmates, or colleagues, fearing that people would notice his change in profession and thus expose the secret of the amusement park.

The boss had shown him great kindness, and no matter what, he couldn’t let the amusement park or the boss fall into any disadvantageous situation because of himself.

But he truly didn’t know what lay ahead of him.

It’s funny... When he was a chef, he wanted to become stronger, to gain the right to become stronger.

But once he actually became a powerful class, he was suddenly confused about why he had become so strong...

He felt... as if he lacked the motivation to become stronger.

He knew his mindset was wrong, so he spent his days desperately leveling up, trying to find pleasure in becoming stronger.

I kept hypnotizing myself, saying that I was becoming stronger for myself, and for no one else.

However, the results were unsatisfactory.

The inner fatigue continues to accumulate.

He knew things couldn’t continue like this.

”Perhaps... it’s time to leave.”

he thought.

Let’s start over somewhere else.

Make new friends, new partners, and encounter new things.

This might allow me to gradually rediscover the mindset I once lost.

Thinking of this, the image of a girl involuntarily surfaced in his mind...

After he faked his death that day, he saw that girl.

The girl cried so hard that she could barely stand and collapsed in front of his house, which had been burned to the ground.

In the end, he was practically carried away by people.

He couldn’t resist sneaking a peek at the girl several times afterward. She would occasionally go out with her friends, but she always looked lost and dejected, no longer the vibrant girl she used to be.

Several times he wanted to rush out and tell the girl he was still alive.

But in the end, I forced myself to hold back.

Because his current identity... is a member of the amusement park.

This is something he absolutely cannot reveal.

He trusted the girl, but not anyone else.

After a brief silence, he sighed softly, stopped thinking about it, and continued forward.

After clearing this stage, just leave.

he thought.

……

”My lord, this dungeon has indeed been perfectly cleared. The clear record is indeed only held by ’Paradise Owner’... As for all the other speedrun records, they were all left by Paradise.”

Outside the rabbit statue, Shen Changyuan followed behind a cold-looking young man, his eyes slightly lowered, remaining silent.

A professional who had accompanied the aloof young man respectfully reported to him.

The aloof young man looked to his side. Not far away, some centaur professionals were also there, but they maintained a clear distinction from the humans. Their restraint was evident in their posture.

It’s definitely different from other places...

”What did you find?”

He asked a woman next to him who also had a cold and aloof expression.

The aloof woman scanned the crowd, then shook her head after a moment, calmly saying, ”At least outside the instance, we haven’t found any professionals above the Excellent level.”

The aloof young man didn’t say much, but his eyes flickered as he looked ahead. After a moment, he suddenly asked, ”Did the centaurs nearby really give some of their exclusive copies to me humans?”

Shen Changyuan bowed slightly and calmly replied, ”Yes.”

”So, how many members of the amusement park have you confirmed so far?”

”Currently, only three have been confirmed: the boss, Xiao, and another one codenamed ’Frost’... but ’Frost’ has only appeared once, and the enemy did not appear in the last war.”

”Is that so?” The cold-faced young man paused for a moment before calmly saying, ”The reason the other party only appeared once is because they have already left Iron Fang City. I did hear the name ’Frost’ when I came here.”

The cold-faced young man’s words surprised Shen Changyuan: ”Other places?”

”Dongsheng, Tianque, Linquan... That Frost broke some Rank 0 dungeon records in these three places, and all the team names she left behind were ’Paradise,’ causing some minor disturbances in the local areas... similar to your Iron Fang situation. However, it hasn’t reached the point where the city gates were blocked by alien races.”

The aloof young man said calmly.

Shen Changyuan paused for a moment before saying, ”The alien races have never given up their desire to destroy us. Whenever a genius of our human race appears, they always try to kill him as soon as possible.”

The aloof young man glanced at him, offering no comment.

Then he looked up and around: ”It seems that the mysterious boss is currently only at Tier 1... Which Tier 1 dungeon is the closest to here?”

”It’s the Firefly Forest.”

”Let’s go take a look... Maybe we’ll get lucky and run into that boss.”

The aloof young man narrowed his eyes, his gaze flickering slightly.

Shen Changyuan nodded: ”This way.”

The group headed towards the Firefly Forest.

……

As the last boss died, Lin Fan let out a long breath.

Hellfire Forest, cleared again.

Look at the completion time... a huge difference compared to the boss’s.

Lin Fan remembered that his boss had told him to break the speedrun record whenever he had the chance.

However, all the dungeons near Ironfang City were cleared by the opponent, leaving him no room to maneuver at all...

Shaking his head helplessly, Lin Fan picked up the boss’s loot and exited the dungeon.

He plans to leave Irontooth City.
