Mystery: Chaos Path

"I remember Little Red chose the border area between Intis and Loen as the starting point for the revolution, I wonder how it's going now..." Lorlen pinched the letter, taking a rare few seconds to consider the progress of the revolution.

As far as he knew, Medici's plan was to stir up trouble everywhere, secretly providing various supplies to the poor, while secretly spreading ideas of resistance, and selecting suitable talents to develop, and establishing corresponding organizations with these people as the foundation.

Once the time was ripe, Medici would officially launch a war of resistance, and then, starting with the border county, ignite the sparks of resistance throughout Loen. After taking Loen, he would consider liberating other countries.

Of course, there would definitely be many more details in practice, but that was not something Lorlen needed to consider, as he was not responsible for those things.

"Speaking of which, should I go and take a look? After all, I had previously scheduled a speech..." Lorlen pondered for a few seconds, then happily decided to go to the site to survey Medici's work progress.

Thinking of this, Lorlen looked at Azik and said with a smile, "Mr. Azik, I have something to go out for, I'll probably be back tomorrow."

Azik was stunned for a moment, then showed a gentle smile and said, "Okay, I understand."

Then Azik saw Lorlen hurriedly put on his coat and leave the villa, looking very rushed indeed.

For a time, the once lively villa was left with only an empty-nest old Azik.

"I've become the only idle person..." Azik didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and felt a little lonely.

These past few days he had gotten used to the lively atmosphere in the villa, and now that he was the only one left, Azik really felt unaccustomed to it.

After thinking about it, Azik also put down the newspaper in his hand and prepared to go to the study upstairs to find a book on mysticism to read, to further enrich his knowledge.

Although he had the experience of a Death Archon, this world was constantly changing, and Azik had been in reincarnation for the past thousand years, so there were bound to be aspects he didn't understand, and he had to constantly learn to ensure that nothing went wrong at a critical moment.

... ...

A certain border town in Loen—

Lunt was an ordinary worker.

He had a hard but relatively stable job, the only problem was that the salary was very low, and normal work could hardly support his entire family, so Lunt had to desperately work overtime, wishing he had 18 hours a day at his work station.

Even so, Lunt's salary could only barely feed his family. As for savings, there were none at all.

But even so, Lunt still felt that he was doing pretty well, at least his family wouldn't go hungry, they didn't have to squeeze all four of them into one room, and his youngest daughter could even go to church school. After graduation, maybe she would be able to find a better job and become a respectable person in the future.

However, just when Lunt thought that his life would continue like this, he learned a shocking piece of bad news—he was fired.

Their factory had chosen to lay off employees due to poor performance, and Lunt, as a non-irreplaceable assembly line worker, was naturally among those laid off.

Even after leaving the factory gate, Lunt was still in a daze. He hoped it was a nightmare, but the feeling of the drizzling rain hitting his face told him that it was not a nightmare.

He really lost his job!

Lunt suddenly felt a little breathless, and a great sense of panic enveloped him, to the point that he even forgot to breathe.

In this era, losing a job was a terrible thing. It meant that if he couldn't find another job in time, his family would have to move out of their current apartment and into those small, damp basements, squeezing onto bunk beds. His youngest daughter would no longer be able to attend school because they couldn't afford the tuition, and his family of four might not even be able to afford food in a few days.

And Lunt was no longer young, it wouldn't be so easy for him to find another job.

Lunt almost tremblingly reached into his pocket, wanting to take out the half pack of cigarettes in his pocket. It was his most treasured possession, and he would only carefully smoke one when life was about to become unbearable, to calm himself down.

But this time, perhaps because he was too afraid, Lunt's trembling hands seemed to have lost their strength. After trying hard for a long time, he couldn't take out the half pack of cigarettes.

And just at this moment, someone suddenly patted him on the shoulder.

"Hey, Lunt, what are you doing standing here in the rain? Aren't you afraid of getting sick?"

Lunt blankly turned his head and saw a familiar face. It was his former colleague, Dixi, a young man who had been fired a few days ago.

Lunt still remembered how gloomy the other party's expression was when he was fired, but now Lunt found that the other party actually looked pretty good, at least very energetic.

Did he find a new job?

While Lunt was wondering, Dixi had already pulled him to a building where he could take shelter from the rain. The other party then looked Lunt up and down, as if guessing something, and said, "You were fired too?"

"Yeah." Lunt could only nod bitterly.

"I guessed it would be like this, those xx's xx's don't care about our lives at all..." Dixi probably recalled his experience of being fired, and immediately began to scold excitedly, from the small leader who managed them to the factory owner he had never met, comprehensively greeting their parents in three minutes.

Listening to this full-bodied scolding, Lunt couldn't help but echo a few words, before looking at Dixi tentatively and saying, "Dixi, did you find a job?"

No mistakes, one first, one hair, one content, one look!

The reason why Lunt asked this was naturally to take the opportunity to ask if the place where the other party worked was still hiring.

Hearing Lunt ask a question, Dixi immediately stopped greeting the capitalists. He first looked around, then lowered his voice and said, "I'll tell you, I found a good place..."

According to Dixi's own account, after being fired a few days ago, he found a new job through a friend's introduction. The job was simple, and it included food and accommodation, and the salary was high.

"We're still hiring people there now, do you want to come over?" At the end, Dixi looked at Lunt and asked.

Lunt was a little tempted, but also a little worried. Although he was an uneducated guy, he also understood that there was no such thing as a free lunch, and the job described by Dixi was very much like a free lunch.

Could it be a scam?

Lunt hesitated a little.

But Dixi seemed to see Lunt's hesitation, and patted his chest to assure him, "Don't worry, I'm definitely not a scammer, and I'm not afraid to tell you, the reason why I'm pulling you over is because we get a reward for bringing new people over..."

Lunt: ......

Sounds even more like a scam.

But even though he was full of doubts, Lunt ultimately chose to follow Dixi to the place he said—he had no choice, if he couldn't find a new job, his whole family would die sooner or later.

So even knowing that the other party might be a scammer, Lunt still gritted his teeth and went.
