Chapter 155 Cai Chen's Day in the Professional Combat Division: Powerless Anger, The Last EmploChapter 155 A Day in the Life of Cai Chen, Chief of the Professional Warfare Division: Powerless Anger, The Last Employee

After having breakfast, Cai Chen prepared to leave early.

As he was changing his shoes, his younger brother opened his door, yawning as he walked out. When he saw Cai Chen at the door, he paused for a moment before greeting him, ”Third Brother.”

Cai Chen looked up at his younger brother and nodded: ”No class today?”

”It’s Saturday today...” The younger brother, wearing pajamas, scratched his head.

”...Okay, I’m going to work.”

He’d forgotten that the combat unit didn’t have weekends off; he had to work every day, and he’d completely lost track of the days.

”Okay, take care, Third Brother.”

At her younger brother’s call, Cai Chen changed her shoes, grabbed her phone, and went outside, scrolling through the messages on her phone.

”...Groups three and four will patrol Cuiyun Street today; groups five and six will be on duty outside ’Frost Rift Valley’; group seven...”

The work group has already issued today’s tasks. Cai Chen is a member of Group 5, and today’s task is to stand guard outside the Tier 1 dungeon ’Frost Rift’.

A group consists of ten or twenty people rotating shifts, basically half a day on duty and half a day for promotion.

Although you are a formal member of the Combat Division, you still need to be promoted.

He looked at his panel; his current level was Tier 1, Level 27.

”It’s been a year...sigh.”

He sighed.

He had already advanced to level 1 when he graduated from school a year ago, but now a year later... he is still at level 1.

There was no other way; since he had chosen to join the Combat Division, this was the price he had to pay.

The professionals in the War Division have heavy tasks every day, which are so overwhelming that they can hardly breathe.

This is especially true for ordinary professionals like them... Not to mention anything else, even their upgrade schedules are subject to the arrangements of their superiors, leaving them with virtually no free time.

But there is no way.

For ordinary professionals, joining the Combat Division is actually the best choice... after all, it’s good to have a powerful backer.

If you don’t join the Combat Division, your future development will be more difficult, and your safety will not be guaranteed.

...He has six siblings, but he is the only professional among them.

If we don’t join the combat division, our family’s situation will be even more difficult.

Thinking of this, Cai Chen sighed wearily, unable to stop his thoughts from wandering...

If only I had awakened an elite profession back then...

In this way, even those who are currently serving as combat officers can have some free time.

Moreover, the career prospects are greater, with opportunities to become a team leader or even a captain...

His mind wandered.

”I’ve recently heard rumors circulating that there’s something that can supposedly change your career... I don’t know if it’s true or not...”

Cai Chen’s thoughts drifted. Recently, there had been rumors circulating within the Class Combat Division about something that could change one’s class. But no one could say for sure what it was. Some said it was a scroll called the ’Class Change Scroll’; others said it was a secret realm… where entering it offered a chance to change one’s class, and possibly even increase their class rank; still others said it was something created by an alien race, some kind of magical altar that had flowed from their world…

There are many different opinions.

There are all sorts of opinions.

I don’t know if it’s true or not?

In the end, he could only shake his head with a wry smile.

Don’t believe rumors that have no basis in reality.

Besides, even if there were such a thing... would it be his turn?
He has a clear understanding of himself; he is just an ordinary errand boy in the combat division, a bit of a radical, but most of the time he dares not speak out against his anger.

In this lifetime, I’ll probably just manage to make a living in the combat division.

You won’t die from overeating, nor from starving...

Ding-dong, his phone rang. He glanced down, a little distracted, and saw it was a message from his team leader. He quickly opened it.

”Cai Chen, meet at the city gate at 9 o’clock. Don’t be late.”

A somewhat authoritative voice rang out.

He quickly replied, ”Yes, team leader, I’ve already set off and should be there in half an hour.”

After saying that, he stopped thinking about it, quickly entered the elevator, went to the underground parking garage, and drove to the meeting point.

I rushed and finally arrived at the meeting point before nine o’clock.

The team members have all arrived.

Upon seeing Cai Chen, he merely nodded, neither warmly nor coldly.

The same applies to Cai Chen.

The team leader arrived close to nine o’clock.

The team leader was a man in his thirties, over 1.9 meters tall, with a solemn face; he was an elite-level warrior.

He looked around and saw that all the team members had arrived. He nodded and said, ”Let’s go.”

The team members immediately assembled and then drove to the ’Frosty Rift’ instance.

The two cars lurched and bounced on the uneven road in the wilderness, and Cai Chen looked out the window at the situation outside.

The team leader is assigning tasks for today.

”Peng Liang and Jia Dong will be in charge of the east side today, Cai Chen and Li Hong will be in charge of the north side, Qin Qiang and... Wang Zihao and I will be in the middle. Report any issues immediately. We’ll change shifts at 2 PM and meet at the dungeon entrance to level up. Today, Peng Liang, Jia Dong, Li Hong, and Qin Qiang will be in my group, and the rest of you will be in Wang Zihao’s group... Any questions?”

Team leader Hong Tao inquired.

Everyone quickly replied, ”No problem!”

”Well, that’s it.”

After saying that, the team leader stopped talking, and the car became quiet.

Today’s routine duty is patrolling the town outside the instance.

Because Jindong City is adjacent to the low-level extreme secret realm of Thousand Gorges Corridor, there are several alien cities nearby. Centaur and Three-Eyed races are among them.

When different races and humans gather in a small town, it’s inevitable that some conflicts or frictions will occur.

As the official human authority, the War Division still needs to assign some personnel there.

But Cai Chen seemed somewhat dismissive of the task...

In his view, there was absolutely no need to arrange for them to be there.

What’s the point of making arrangements?

Whether it’s the centaurs or the three-eyed race, their leaders’ attitude is to tolerate as much as possible.

Friction is everywhere! It happens every day! But when human professionals actually confront the Combat Division, all they do is advise them to let things slide…

For example, something happened in the Thousand Gorges Corridor a while ago... The Three-Eyed Clan openly sent an army there, saying they wanted to block a genius from some human organization.

They even brought over some detection equipment.

All humans entering or leaving the Thousand Gorges Corridor must undergo inspection by the Three-Eyed Tribe.

The Three-Eyed Clan and the Centaur Clan are both fine.

Only humans had to undergo the examination. And it went on for many days in a row.

Isn’t this blatant discrimination and insult against humanity?
Logically, shouldn’t the Combat Division be involved in this kind of matter?
But the result?

Those who were personally carrying out the orders on site were furious, and some even wanted to turn against the Three-Eyed Clan.

But an order from above immediately came down.

”We will absolutely not allow any direct conflict with other races. Otherwise, if the situation escalates, whoever starts the conflict will be held responsible!”

This bucket of cold water poured directly on everyone, chilling them to the bone.

The centaurs are fine, the three-eyed people are fine, it’s just that the insults and discrimination against humans are turned a blind eye by the higher-ups...

What else is there to say?

What’s the point of sending them over to patrol?
Not even qualified to be a mascot!

Even many human professionals at the time mocked them, saying that their War Combat Division wasn’t a human War Combat Division, but rather a War Combat Division of the Three-Eyed Clan and Centaur Clan...

Many colleagues felt frustrated but helpless.

What can I do?
They were just lowly karami, and had no way to interfere with the decisions of their superiors.

Thinking about these things, Cai Chen, who was already exhausted, felt even more frustrated, but in the end, he could only sigh helplessly.

In the world of professionals, the things he, as an ordinary professional, can do are extremely limited.

And so, the vehicle slowly drove on and soon arrived outside the town. At a glance, they saw the bustling town teeming with centaurs, three-eyed people, and human professionals.

After getting off the vehicle, everyone went to their assigned duties according to their groups.

Li Hong, an ordinary mage, was on duty with Cai Chen. She had an average appearance and spent the whole time looking down at her phone, and her attitude towards Cai Chen was neither warm nor cold.

Cai Chen was already used to it. They quickly arrived at the duty station, where the previous group’s colleagues were still there.

Cai Chen saw that Li Hong was still playing on her phone, sighed, and went up to hand over the work to the colleague from the previous group. After the handover was completed, the other party left, and Cai Chen and Li Hong sat down at their posts.

Cai Chen looked around listlessly, while Li Hong was on her phone chatting with someone the whole time, laughing hysterically from time to time.

The bustling dungeon town was teeming with people, a mix of alien races and humans, and Cai Chen gradually drifted into a daze.

At some point...

A commotion arose in the distance, bringing Cai Chen back to his senses. He instinctively looked over.

Then I saw a few human professionals being surrounded and pushed around by a few centaur professionals at a street stall not far away.

The human professional looked rather grim and kept pushing the door open.

But those centaurs became even more arrogant, standing tall and proud.

The commotion grew louder, and Li Hong finally looked up from her phone. Seeing the situation, she frowned and asked Cai Chen, ”What’s going on?”

Cai Chen snapped out of his reverie, shook his head, and frowned, ”I don’t know.”

”Go over and take a look?”

He turned to ask Li Hong.

Li Hong looked annoyed: ”This is really troublesome... Let’s go.”

But I still got up.

The two walked over.

As soon as the two arrived at the scene of the commotion, someone spotted them and immediately shouted, ”The Combat Division is here!”

Immediately, everyone’s attention fell on the two of them.

Even the centaur members raised their eyebrows, looking at Cai Chen and Li Hong with amusement.

Cai Chen took a deep breath and asked, ”What happened?”

”You’ve come at the right time! I was peacefully selling equipment here when this guy came up to buy some, but the price he offered was way too low. I wasn’t willing to sell, but he insisted on buying it! Now he’s even taken the items. Isn’t the Combat Department going to do anything about this?!”

The human professional who had been pushed into the corner saw Cai Chen and Li Hong from the Combat Division and immediately spoke up.

There are many such private stalls outside the town.

Cai Chen frowned upon hearing this, but before he could speak, a centaur sneered, ”It’s just an elite piece of equipment. You dare to buy it for 10,000 gold coins? Giving you 100 gold coins is already a premium. Don’t be ungrateful.”

The professional, perhaps emboldened by the arrival of the combat specialists, immediately retorted defiantly, ”While this is elite equipment, it’s a rare barrier item. What’s wrong with me selling it for 10,000 gold coins? Besides, the equipment is mine. Even if I ask for a million gold coins, that’s my business! You can simply not buy it; why are you robbing me?!”

Before he could finish speaking, a centaur slapped him across the face and spat, ”Bullshit! You’re disrupting the market. If everyone did what you do and set prices arbitrarily, how would we do business? I’m doing this for your own good, to teach you a lesson. If you’re going to do business, do it honestly and don’t disrupt the market.”

In front of the members of the Combat Division, he even slapped a human professional. Cai Chen’s eyes immediately turned cold, and a hint of anger appeared in his eyes.

Before he could speak, Li Hong frowned and said, ”Why are you making such a fuss over such a small matter? Your elite-level Tier 1 equipment is indeed not worth that much money. Did they say something wrong?”

The human professional who had just been slapped could hardly believe his ears.

Li Hong said to herself, ”Alright, alright, that’s enough. I’ve already given you a hundred gold coins, right? That’s it. Stop causing trouble. Disperse, disperse!”

”you!”

The human professional was immediately enraged, but before he could utter two words, Li Hong glared at him and said, ”You’re not convinced? You really want to make a scene? You’ll have to clean up the mess yourself.”

One sentence immediately rendered the human professional speechless.

The other human professionals in the crowd all looked extremely unpleasant.

The centaurs burst into laughter: ”This young lady is so sensible... Don’t worry, you’ll get your share of the hundred gold coins. Hahahaha...”

Amidst laughter, the centaur tossed a hundred gold coins onto the ground, then led his people away leisurely.

Only a few oppressed human professionals remained, trembling with rage.

Cai Chen’s face was also as black as charcoal.

I wanted to say something, but in the end, I couldn’t utter a single word.

Li Hong loudly dispersed the crowd again, without even calling out to Cai Chen, and continued playing on her phone before returning to her post.

...Clearly, the phone was more important to her than this matter.

Cai Chen pursed his lips and remained silent for a long time before finally loosening his fist, hanging his head helplessly, and following after them.

He could vaguely hear people in the crowd gritting their teeth.

”Damn it, I told you the Jin Dong Professional Combat Division is a bunch of traitors! Bah! Now you believe me, right?”

Cai Chen felt his face burning hot, wishing he could disappear into the ground...

……

So naturally he didn’t see it.

In the crowd not far away, a handsome young man was looking thoughtfully at his angry and frustrated face.

It was naturally Qin Fang.

The information he received the night before last... Today, he personally came to Jindong City.

I never expected to witness such a scene.

His eyes narrowed slightly...

This Cai Chen is... the last employee needed for Mission 2.
