Ordinary observers in fast time travel

Chapter 1285 Termination of Contract
Venerable Ao Zhou, one of the heads of the Dimensional Administration Bureau, is in his true form as a blue dragon. At this moment, Venerable Ao Zhou, in human form, has two horns on his forehead, adding a touch of wildness to his beauty.

However, his height of 2.8 meters made it a little difficult for Shi Jia to see him. She silently took a step back, thinking, "Hmm, that's much better."

"Greetings, Venerable Ao Zhou." Shi Jia bowed to him.

"Xiao Shijia, long time no see. I heard you've completed your trial?" Ao Zhou chuckled. He still remembered this junior. The Venerable Gu Xi of the Time Clan had previously asked him to take care of this junior.

"Thanks to you, I have completed the trial." Shi Jia, still thinking about the bubbles in the sky, asked, "Venerable One, did you say that was a projection of the world?"

Venerable Ao Zhou shook his head, "You could say that."

"Is that considered?" Shi Jia asked, puzzled.

“To be precise, those are small worlds,” Venerable Ao Zhou said with a smile. “Come in and talk if you have anything to say.”

So this is a small world? Shi Jia was shocked. Did he mean that the bubble hanging above his head was a small world? This—the Dimensional Administration just hung a world in the sky like this?

Shi Jia followed Venerable Ao Zhou in a daze when she suddenly felt a layer of resistance. Before she could react, with a soft "poof," she passed right through the membrane. Instantly, she was blinded by the dazzling light.

Just like Venerable Ao Zhou's office, Venerable Ao Zhou's residence was like a dragon palace in the deep sea, radiating precious light everywhere. Coral was used as pillars, pearls as curtains, and at the top of the steps paved with thousand-year-old giant clam shells was a huge throne with no end in sight, piled up with countless treasures.

Shi Jia was so shocked that her mouth dropped open, as if she had never seen anything like it before.

"Hehe." A deep laugh came, and Shi Jia quickly shut his mouth, adjusted his expression, and smiled slightly at Ao Zhou, "I'm sorry to have made you laugh, Venerable One."

Ao Zhou raised an eyebrow. "It seems you've gained quite a bit from the trial."

Shi Jia nodded, "Yes, thank you for your care, Venerable One and elders."

Ao Zhou nodded and pointed to the seashell chair behind her, gesturing for her to sit down and talk. After the two were seated, several beautiful merman maids filed out and served them tea and snacks.

Shi Jia was secretly alarmed. These merman maids all had at least the cultivation level of a stellar star. She herself had only just reached the stellar level. If her divine body were to fully condense, she could advance to the nebula level.

"What business do you have with me?" Venerable Ao Zhou didn't mince words.

"Your Excellency, the one hundred tasks in the contract have been completed. I am here today to lift the restrictions." Due to the contract, she could not leave the Dimensional Administration Bureau before completing the tasks, except for entering the small world through the Dimensional Administration Bureau's teleportation channel.

With the restrictions lifted, she can return to the Time Clan's ancestral land—the Time God Realm—to complete the final coronation ceremony.

After completing the coronation ceremony, she officially became an adult and could do whatever she wanted from then on.

Thinking of this, Shi Jia completely forgot about the world bubble in the sky and looked at Venerable Ao Zhou with bright eyes.

Venerable Ao Zhou was taken aback. "You've completed a hundred tasks so quickly? How long has it been?" Less than a year, right?

He was somewhat incredulous, but with a wave of his hand, a light screen appeared in front of him, displaying Shi Jia's mission status.

It actually got done! Venerable Ao Zhou found it hard to accept, mainly because he didn't want to release the person so quickly. If he let them go, where would he find such a useful laborer? Cough cough.

Shi Jia didn't speak, just quietly looked at him. She could tell that he didn't seem to want her to leave, but the contract was there!

"Ahem, Shi Xiaojia, what do you think of the job of a mission taker?" Venerable Ao Zhou looked at Shi Xiaojia. Although the universe has no shortage of living beings, the Time Clan is a rare find! How many people are there in the entire Time Clan? And how many Time Clan members does their Plane Management Bureau have? They'll try to retain as many as they can.

"Purifying the world and maintaining the stability of the universe are indispensable positions for the stable development of the great universe," Shi Jia said after thinking for a moment.

Venerable Ao Zhou nodded in satisfaction. "Not bad. Do you want to continue serving as a mission taker?"

"Oh? No, I don't think so. I still need to go back to my clan's territory for my coronation." Shi Jia waved her hand. She could travel through time on her own, so it would be very convenient for her to travel to smaller worlds in the future.

"Don't misunderstand, I'm not asking you to do the mission now. You can be a part-time mission taker, and you just need to complete 20 missions every year. You can also continue to enjoy the various benefits of the Dimensional Administration Bureau," Venerable Ao Zhou said with a smile.

"Your Time Clan is meant to travel through time and space to inspect various worlds. Since that's the case, by taking on the role of mission taker, you can not only complete your Time Clan's mission but also receive points and contribution points from the Dimensional Administration Bureau. Why not take advantage of it?"

That makes a lot of sense. Shi Jia was somewhat tempted and wanted to agree. However, she hadn't yet returned to the Time Clan for her coronation and didn't know the specifics of the situation.

“What’s there to hesitate about? Think about it yourself. You’ve already completed 100 tasks in less than a year. 20 more tasks will only take you a month. It won’t delay you,” Ao Zhou said.

Shi Jia gritted his teeth and said, "Thank you for your high regard, Venerable One, but this matter needs to be considered after my coronation. If you still do not mind by then, Venerable One, I am willing to take on the task part-time."

Ao Zhou's smile froze; he had thought the junior had agreed.

"Sigh, you kid~" Ao Zhou glanced at Shi Jia with disappointment. "Never mind." After he finished speaking, he operated on the light screen in front of him, and the small system received a notification of contract termination. Shi Jia also felt that another shackle on his body had been removed.

"Thank you, Venerable One." Shi Jia breathed a sigh of relief and bowed to Venerable Ao Zhou.

Ao Zhou waved his hand, "Go back. The contract has been terminated, but the mission taker's privileges will be retained for one day. You can use your points and contribution points during this day."

"Yes."

After leaving Venerable Ao Zhou's residence, Shi Jia took a public flying car and asked the small system to help navigate to the business district.

The commercial district of the Dimensional Administration Bureau was bustling with activity, and the architectural styles of each street were very different, including science fiction, fantasy, ancient, and eerie styles... many of which were styles that Shi Jia had never seen before.

"Sir, is this your first time here? Would you like me to be your guide?" A lifelike robot girl tugged at Shi Jia's sleeve.

Shi Jia glanced around the commercial area, which was so confusing that she couldn't tell which way was which, and nodded. "Okay, how much?"

"Only 50 source points a day, that's a great deal!" the little girl said.

Source Points? Shi Jia was taken aback as a memory surfaced in his mind: in higher-dimensional universes, Source Points and Source Crystals were used as currency. Source Points were also Source Matter, and Source Matter crystallized into Source Crystals.

Source matter is the main substance for condensing divine souls, which means that divine souls are used for trade. Of course, powerful high-dimensional beings can generate excess source matter every day.

Shi Jia's consciousness swept across the spiritual sea world, his gaze landing on the boundless spiritual sea condensed from source matter. He thought to himself, "There's quite a bit of source matter, but... can I use points?"

"Points?" The little girl paused noticeably. "Yes, 10 points can be exchanged for one Source Point."

What about contribution points?

"One contribution point can be exchanged for 100 source points!" the little girl said happily.
