Chapter 542: Chapter 254: Astronomical Employment Fee {Thanks to the Sect Leader Who Currently Has Nothing for the Generous Reward}_1

In the hallway, the smell of blood was overwhelming.

On the floor lay five murdered bodies of girl group members, scattered and dressed in swimming suits, revealing large expanses of fair skin, now smeared with fresh blood and dust, creating an eerily macabre and grim atmosphere.

"God, I am Li Taewoo!"

The first young man to emerge, despite being in a panic, tried hard to muster a smile and greeted Lin Baici.

He glanced at the body of the girl who had been the center position, recalling that he had just arranged a meeting with her half a month ago, never expecting they would now be separated by life and death.

"Lin Baici, friend of Kim Myungjin!"

Lin Baici looked around; there were still quite a few people, probably over thirty.

"God, are you a God Hunter?"

"What do we do now? Hide and wait to be rescued?"

"By the time Sejong’s people come, we’d all probably be dead!"

The young people gathered together, chattering among themselves.

Through their words and behavior, Lin Baici had more or less confirmed their identities and social status. Besides the important guests of Li Taewoo, those who were allowed on this floor were close friends brought along by these people, mostly females.

These friends were aware of their social hierarchy, or rather, knew that their words carried little weight, so they remained silent.

"God Lin, can you purify this rule contamination?"

Li Taewoo looked at Lin Baici, still relatively calm, "Money is not a problem!"

"There’s too little intelligence, it’s unclear."

Lin Baici could not guarantee, "Have you offended anyone?"

This luck of his was incomparable; he had just attended Kim Myungjin’s friend’s birthday party and ended up in a game of taboo. From now on, would he need to consult fortunetellers before going out?

"There are many competitors in my family!"

Li Taewoo, the only son of the chairman of the San Forest Group, despite having several illegitimate children in the shadows, they would have no right to inherit the family fortune even if they had him taken out.

Because legally, they were not considered Li family people.

As for rivals, there were far too many. The San Forest Group had become Goryeo’s number one conglomerate; it was easy to imagine the enemies they had made.

But all of these were not important; surviving came first.

"God Lin, as long as I survive, once I take over the San Forest Group, I can give you one ten-thousandth of the shares!"

Li Taewoo made a direct offer.

The crowd, even amidst crisis, couldn’t help but express their astonishment, and their faces were rife with envy.

One ten-thousandth might not seem much, but given that the San Forest Group was not only the biggest in the country but also ranked 21st among the world’s top 500 last year, with annual profits exceeding 300 billion US dollars.

Conservatively estimated, God Lin would still pocket tens of millions of US dollars every year, after paying various income taxes, without having to manage anything—a complete fortune.

Choi Seh-Hyo did some quick calculations and instantly turned sour, as if he had just been fished out of lemon water.

My mother struggled so hard for decades, even considering sleeping with someone, just to secure an investment of twenty million dollars to produce a TV show...

Wait,

This was equity we’re talking about, profits to be collected every year; it was essentially a golden goose.

"If I say something, will you listen?"

Lin Baici did not immediately agree but asked a question in return.

"I will!"

Li Taewoo quickly nodded, drawing the grand picture first. Whether it could be realized depended on the performance of this Nine States man.

If he was strong enough, the money would be considered an investment in friendship and not a loss. But if he turned out to be nothing special, then why not donate to Sejong instead?

However, Li Taewoo felt this young man, who was even younger than himself, was probably not too shabby. Others would have been excited by such a sizeable reward, but he remained calm, clearly accustomed to big occasions.

Wait, isn’t it possible he might not even care for such money?

Lin Baici’s overly calm demeanor instead made Li Taewoo, a man used to spending lavishly, feel uneasy, wondering if perhaps he had offered too little this time?

Li Taewoo subconsciously looked towards Kim Myungjin, hoping she would give him a hint.

"As long as you follow Lin Oppa’s instructions, you’ll survive!"

Kim Myungjin’s subtext was simple, if you act willfully, then await your death.

Footsteps resounded, and two monsters charged up.

"God Lin!"

The people at the far end of the corridor were terrified.

"Into the rooms!"

Lin Baici stepped back, "Quick!"

Everyone, like piglets driven by a starving wolf, rushed into a room on the right according to Lin Baici’s directions.

The two monsters were fast, arriving side-by-side, pouncing on two people, but before they could bite down, Lin Baici sliced their heads in half with his sword.

For Lin Baici, such ordinary monsters were merely trivial, not worth a mention.

"Thank you!"

The two young people expressed their gratitude loudly, crying profusely.

Lin Baici smiled slightly, indicating there was no need for politeness, then helped them up and ran into the room. Once inside, he immediately pulled two Fast Descending Ropes from the Black Tripod Bowl and tied them to the legs of the luxury bed.

"Down, hurry up!"

Lin Baici urged.

Everyone glanced out the window and hesitated.

If there were monsters after they descended, what then?

Seeing their reaction, Lin Baici simply shrugged his shoulders.

Hua Yue Yu and Kim Myungjin listened to Lin Baici’s words, grabbing the ropes to start descending.

"Wait!"

Lin Baici pulled Hua Yue Yu back. If others went down first, even if they were attacked by monsters, the large number could spread out the attack power, but Hua Yue Yu and Kim Myungjin going first could end up as cannon fodder.

"I’ll go down first, Jin Ying second, Li Taewoo third, and then starting from this side, go down one by one, in order," Lin Baici announced. "Anyone who dares to jump the queue, even if they make it down, I’ll feed them to the monsters myself!"
