Following a series of reputation-enhancing notifications, Zhou Ning saw that not only was there a new Sun Guardian sub-profession on his panel, but also a new skill and a new expertise.

This skill is a very rare general dispel skill, which just makes up for my shortcomings in this area.

Zhou Ning took a deep breath. From a player's perspective, this wave was quite profitable. But he only regretted that he wasn't a player and didn't have the ability to revive. Otherwise, if he were always charging forward, brave and resolute, the compensation would definitely bankrupt them.

After Zhou Ning signed, Qien West took over the contract again, took out a seal from the drawer of the table, and stamped it on the signatures of the two people.

After doing all this, he put the contract into the folder and extended his hand to Zhou Ning: "Welcome, from now on, you are a member of the Sun Guardians."

Zhou Ning stood up, shook his hand, and said with a smile: "My pleasure, so what should I do now?"

"I understand. I'm familiar with it." Qi'en smiled and said, "Since you and Sherlock are friends, you can temporarily follow Sherlock's second team. He will help you introduce the specific situation of the Sun Guardians and the corresponding benefits. Of course, according to the contract, you don't have to come here on weekdays."

Bright! Zhou Ning nodded and thanked Qien West.

After chatting with Qien West for a few more words, Zhou Ning followed Sherlock out of Qien's office.

Sherlock led Zhou Ning forward. When they reached a closed iron door, Sherlock reached out and knocked on it. After a while, a middle-aged man opened the door, looked at Sherlock, and asked, "Are you bringing someone new here?"

"That's right, but this newcomer is no ordinary person." Sherlock said with a smile.

The middle-aged man smiled, then glanced at Zhou Ning and extended his hand. "My name is Lucius, welcome to join the Sun Watchers. If you need anything in the future, you can come to me."

He should be the camp quartermaster mentioned in the mission prompt.

Zhou Ning narrowed his eyes slightly, stretched out his hand and shook hands with him. Through the camp store that Lucius opened to him, Zhou Ning could see quite a few good things, many of which were not open to the outside world, at least he had never seen anyone mention them in his previous life.

In addition to the standard firearms of the Japanese Guardians that he had exchanged in large quantities before, there were also some very special engineering, tailoring, and alchemical materials and recipe drawings that could be exchanged, and there was even a copy of the collection stone that could be exchanged. It can be said that there was a dazzling array of items.

The name of the copy is Shadow Raid, and the price is 2500 reputation points. It is very shady, and the level is 30-45. Zhou Ning has no interest in it at all. He will exchange it and sell it to players when his reputation is relatively rich.

When Zhou Ning turned to the third page of the faction store, he couldn't help but curl his lips. He saw that the devil fruit and high-level firearms he had provided were also listed. With his current reputation of more than half respected, it was only enough to exchange for one devil fruit...

Zhou Ning didn't know how to complain at all, so he shook his head and laughed.

But the most expensive item wasn't the Devil Fruit, but several identical brooches shaped like bamboo leaves. They were probably some kind of extraordinary item worth a fortune, and such items could be mass-produced by the Shouri people.

After glancing at the price, he realized that exchanging an expert-level alchemy blueprint from Lucius would cost around 2500 reputation points. After some thought, Zhou Ning decided to save it for now and spend it later when he had enough.

After receiving a uniform and a Day Watch badge from Lucius, Sherlock introduced Zhou Ning to the internal situation of the Day Watch.

There are three teams within the Day Watch. Sherlock is in charge of the second team, which is responsible for affairs in the trade zone, the old town and the area near Wick University. There were originally thirteen people, but four of them died in the line of duty during this period. Currently, there are only seven people in total, namely Ian, Cherry, Polly, whom Zhou Ning had met, and Leonardo and Kyle Robbins who had just joined.

Among them, Leonardo is similar to himself, just a figurehead.

In addition to the Sun Guardians, the Earth Ring, a team of extraordinary people from the Earth Temple, is also not much behind in strength. They will be more responsible for matters in the west of the city.

Sherlock then told Zhou Ning about some cases he had encountered, such as a case of demon sacrifice that he had solved not long ago. The murderer imitated the Curse Cult and actually summoned a great demon...

Although he had some understanding of the game in his previous life, many details were new to Zhou Ning.

Following Sherlock out of the cathedral along the same route, Zhou Ning couldn't help but ask, "I heard you say you needed my help with something before. What is it?"

"About a new case." Sherlock thought for a moment and said with a wry smile, "Do you remember Ian? Didn't he tell you before that he once encountered a ghost near the docks? His luck was getting pretty bad at that time."

"It seems so." Zhou Ning then recalled that he seemed to have heard him say that during the first devil fruit trade, Ian frequently fell flat on his face, and even Jasmine said that he seemed to have come into contact with something unclean and was now plagued by bad luck.

"Then what happened?"

"In the past two days, traces of the undead have appeared not only in the dock area, but also in the old city, the west district, and even the trade district. Moreover, these traces do not coincide with the extreme climate of the undead element." Sherlock sighed.

Suddenly, a new prompt appeared on the panel. Zhou Ning immediately opened the panel and took a look. Sure enough, a new task appeared.

[You trigger the B-level mission [Traces of the Dead]]

[Note: This mission may affect the main storyline and faction development, please choose carefully whether to accept it.]

Zhou Ning suddenly opened his eyes wide:

"I'm not mistaken, this mission is actually related to the main mission!"

From his expertise of being well-informed and well-remembered, we can tell that Zhou Ning is actually quite knowledgeable about the missions in Apocalypse. However, not only is the main storyline extremely confusing, but this mission is also the first time he has seen it!

Traces of the dead... What Sherlock mentioned should be the same phenomenon as the homeless dead man he encountered at his doorstep before.

Zhou Ning had a very strong feeling that this matter was probably related to the Curse Cult, Earl Robbins, and the recent frequent occurrence of strange phenomena.

Zhou Ning is a high-end player who loves adventure and digging out hidden plots. Even though this mission may affect the development of the main plot and may be extremely dangerous, he still accepted the mission!

"accept."

Zhou Ning confirmed it without hesitation.

[You accept the B-level mission [Traces of the Dead]]

A prompt immediately appeared on the panel.
