The newly unlocked world is a bit complicated.
Kevin took a few minutes to sort out his thoughts and digest the information he had obtained.
"In short, this world not only has Gastrea, but also has the jungle environment of Terraria."
"In addition, the system has assigned me a world mission, which requires me to challenge the 'Queen Bee' in the Black Bullet World."
"After successfully killing it, you will unlock the special thief class called 'Shadow Monarch'."
The Queen Bee is one of the bosses in the Terraria world and is an exclusive boss of the jungle biome.
Even if it is not killed, it will not affect the development of the world.
However, some of the equipment and materials produced by the Queen Bee are very practical.
It is also on Kevin's challenge list, but it is ranked relatively low.
According to his plan, he was supposed to find the location of the Queen Bee after defeating the "World Devourer" and before challenging the "Skeletron".
In Terraria's Underground Jungle, giant Beehive structures filled with honey will spawn.
This is a mini-biome with unique environmental mechanics.
And in every beehive, there is a larva sleeping in amber.
As long as it is destroyed, the Queen Bee will be enraged and forced to show up to fight.
Alternatively, you can create an item called "Abeemination" to actively summon the Boss.
But no matter which method you use, you need to find a "beehive" in the jungle.
The underground jungle that Kevin had explored before was only a small area in Terraria.
If he were to explore alone, it would take him forever to find the place.
And now, the jungle of the Black Bullet world is covered by the Terraria world.
This means that... maybe there is a "beehive" in this world!
"This is an opportunity."
There are opportunities, but there are also great risks.
Because if you fail to challenge the boss in the Black Bullet World, you will not be resurrected.
Although you can prepare in advance and avoid death at the critical moment.
But it's still not as safe as in Terraria.
"It seems that we must be fully prepared before taking on the challenge."
Kevin glanced at the rewards for the world missions and felt very motivated.
[Shadow Monarch]————If he remembered correctly, this should be the profession of the protagonist in "Solo Leveling".
The abilities of this profession are very simple and powerful.
That is, the corpses of dead creatures can be extracted as "shadows," which can be used to strengthen oneself or summoned to assist in battle.
"If I extract the corpse of a boss-level enemy into a shadow..."
"Doesn't this mean that I can summon the boss in Terraria to help me fight?!"
Kevin couldn't help but recall the scene of himself waving his hand and summoning Plantera and the Moon Lord sweeping away everything.
Even the boss in the calamity might be able to turn into a shadow to fight for you!
"Forget it, there's no point in thinking about this now, let's kill the Queen Bee first."
Kevin suppressed the excitement in his heart and gradually calmed down.
But in my heart, I am still full of fighting spirit!
"Lily is helping out in the store, so we won't be bringing her this time."
"The place where I crossed over was the Tendo Civil Security Corporation..."
After thinking for a moment, Kevin decided to scout ahead on his own first.
After all, the Black Bullet World is not like the Bed Master City. Although it is also facing a doomsday crisis, it at least maintains a certain order.
Theoretically speaking, as long as you don't run into the "restricted area" outside the monolith, your life will not be in danger.
[The time flow rate of the target world is 1:1 with that of the main world]
[Did you travel to the "Black Bullet" world?]
"Hmm? Finally, there is a world where time flows at the same speed as the main world."
Kevin was slightly surprised but did not hesitate and disappeared directly into the studio.
The next moment, his figure suddenly appeared in a simple office.
The furnishings in the office are fairly complete, but judging by the signs of use, most of them are second-hand items that are quite old.
Only the leather armchair behind the ebony desk was in good condition.
It can be seen that the person sitting in this position must be very particular.
"So... this is the Tendo Civil Security Corporation?"
Just as Kevin was wondering, a black-haired girl in a sailor suit suddenly pushed the door open.
The moment she saw Kevin, she seemed to become alert and placed her hands on her waist, but there was no weapon there.
Then the girl seemed to come to her senses and took the initiative to speak to Kevin.
"Are you the applicant who came to apply for the police position in our company today?"
"Please take a seat... Would you like tea or water?"
"...Just give me some water."
Kevin replied thoughtfully, his identity seemed to be that of a job seeker.
The girl in front of him should be the president of this security company—Tendo Kisara.
Judging from her appearance, she is a very pretty girl.
However, her slender eyes with upward corners appeared sharp, like a knife blade.
"Excuse me, are there no other employees here?"
"No."
In response to Kevin's question, Tendo Kisara answered rather helplessly.
"At present, I am the only one who is the president. There were several applicants before, but in the end, no one agreed."
As for why the deal was not reached...Kevin understood after seeing the contract handed over by Tendo Kisara.
"Excuse me, what does the phrase 'pure commission system' written on the contract mean?"
"That's easy to understand."
The girl in the sailor uniform sitting in the armchair explained as a matter of course.
"There is no base salary, and your monthly salary is determined by how many commissions you can handle."
"The commission bonus will be split 50-50 with the company, and the rest will be your salary."
"I see..."
Kevin concluded as if he had realized something.
"In other words, Miss Tendo actually has no money to pay the employees and wants to get something for nothing?"
This kind of contract is no different from tricking people into working for free.
Faced with such doubts, Tendo Kisara first puffed up her cheeks in anger but soon lost her temper. After all, she could not refute this fact.
"After all, running a company is harder than people imagine."
As she spoke, the girl's stomach suddenly made an unacceptable "gurgling" sound.
Kisara, who had remained calm in the face of such accusations just now, finally showed a bit of blush and embarrassment on her pretty face.
"In short, these are the only conditions I can offer!"
"The interview is over, you can leave now."
"Are there any entry procedures required?"
Kevin had no intention of leaving and directly signed his name on the contract.
"Or do you mean you can start working as long as you sign the contract?"
The girl's eyes widened in surprise. She didn't even seem to hear the sound of her stomach. She stared blankly at her first employee.
After a few seconds, she couldn't help but speak.
"Are you stupid? How dare you sign such an indenture?"
"I hope the guy who wrote this kind of indenture can reflect on himself."
"How dare you say such rude things about your boss's work! Be careful, or I'll deduct your salary!"
"Before that, let's first deal with the problem of your growling stomach, Mr. President."
"..."
Tendo Kisara looked at Kevin with some reluctance.
"Honestly, what exactly are you up to? You are after my beauty, right?"
This time it was Kevin's turn who couldn't refute.
His eyes subconsciously swept to the girl's chest.
The slender figure further highlighted the fullness of the adolescent body.
Although it is not as good as the level of Shizuka Marikawa,
compared with her peers, her level of development was considered good.
I really want to taste...what Miss Kisara's holy milk tastes like.
"Hey, look, it's true!"
Noticing Kevin's fixed gaze, Tendo Kisara immediately protected her chest and took a defensive stance.
"I'm warning you, subordinates are not allowed to take advantage of their superiors!"
"Let's get back to the point."
Kevin coughed lightly and said seriously.
"In fact, I do have other intentions..."
The president's daughter snorted and muttered.
"Don't think that I will forget that you were staring at me just now just because you suddenly changed the subject."
"Tell me, what do you want from me?"
"Or... do you want to use the identity of 'Tendo' to do something?"
Tendo Kisara is the youngest daughter of the wealthy Tendo family, but she rebelled against the family a few years ago.
Her grandfather, "Tendo Kikunosho," was the head of the Tendo family and also the assistant of "Seitenshi," the ruler of Tokyo Area.
It is not an exaggeration to say that he is the person with the highest authority, second only to one person and above millions of people.
As a result, he attracted many enemies, who secretly gathered strength to take revenge on him.
After thinking about it, Tendo Kisara felt that this was the only reason that would make people willing to sign that kind of contract just to get close to her.
But of course, she guessed wrong.
"I'm just trying to resolve an identity issue."
Kevin said in a serious tone.
This is indeed the problem he is facing now.
He can wander around freely in the disorderly world of Highschool of Dead.
But here, if you don't have a fixed residence, you can only go to the peripheral areas to pick up garbage.
If you wander around in the middle of the night, you might be taken away by the police and sent to the detention center.
"Eh… So they are refugees of unknown identity?"
Hearing Kevin say this, Tendo Kisara showed a look of realization, as if she had already figured out the other party's identity.
"That's understandable. After all, many Enforcers have unidentified illegal identities."
As a profession that relies heavily on blood and blade, the Enforcers are composed of a large number of talented people.
There are veterans who have experienced several Gastrea Wars, there are also mercenaries engaged in illegal business, and even cyborgs of the Mechanical Soldier Project...
However, no matter what their previous identity was, as long as it is registered under the name of the security company,
they will suddenly become officially recognized "professionals."
"Is the president satisfied with this explanation?"
"About 60 points."
Tendo Kisara gave a score that was just barely passing.
"I always feel like you're hiding more from me."
"But considering your good attitude... I'll take you to IISO's Tokyo headquarters tomorrow to register as an Enforcer."
[IISO]————also known as "International Initiator Supervisory Organization."
For Kevin, who just entered the industry, this is not an unfamiliar term.
It can be said that the Enforcer profession is completely managed and controlled by IISO.
Similar to the status of the Adventurers' Guild to adventurers in Danmachi.
Once you register as an Enforcer, you will automatically enter the IP ranking system.
In addition to basic supplies, additional merits, permissions, and even military ranks will be granted based on IP rankings.
Although it is an honorary title and has no actual power, it is also a symbol of status.
The most important thing is that only by becoming a formal Enforcer can one be assigned his or her own "Initiator" from IISO.
However, if I want to apply for citizenship,
it is almost impossible as an Enforcer.
Generally, collective applications are made in the name of the company.
Even a small company like the Tendo Civil Security Corporation with only two people
is also a formal company that has been officially registered and has Enforcer registration qualifications.
Although the most valuable thing about this company may be its operating license.
"Then I'll leave it to Miss Tendo."
Kevin glanced at the sky and suggested in a brisk tone.
"In that case, how about holding a welcoming party at the company tonight?"
"Although...I'll pay for the ingredients."
"Real?!"
The president wiped the saliva from the corner of her mouth in an unladylike manner and raised her hand and said.
"I want to eat steak—wait, I'll make you a shopping list."
"Hey, eating and taking at the same time is too much!"
"It's so hard to get a chance to improve our food, how can we let it go!"
In the end, Kevin left the Tendo Civil Security Corporation with the purchase order that was dragging on the ground.
"I can only say…you are worthy of being Miss Kisara."
Kevin folded the purchase order in his hand and put it into the inventory. He found a secluded corner and drank a bottle of potion.
A magical scene then appeared—his body was like a drop of water melting into the water, disappearing into the air in an instant.
[Invisibility Potion: Makes you invisible and reduces the monster spawn rate for 3 minutes]
To make a bottle of invisibility potion, you only need "Blinkroot" and "Moonlight Grass."
After drinking it, you will become completely invisible for up to 3 minutes, and you can get unlimited refills.
It is a must-have item for home travel and zero-dollar shopping.
Kevin, who had just come to this world, definitely didn't have a penny on him.
The cash that the bed owner looted in Valis probably can't be used here.
Going to a pawn shop is too troublesome, and it is easy to be taken advantage of.
Then there is only one way left—rob the rich and give to the poor!
After leaving the Tendo Civil Security Corporation, Kevin remained invisible all the way, looking for a suitable target.
Ordinary people don't have much money, so it's definitely not the best option.
If you want to look for it, look for a place that is obviously home to a wealthy family.
"Hmm? Tendo Mansion..."
Inadvertently, Kevin saw a nameplate hanging in front of the gate of a large compound.
The area of this courtyard can be described as "vast."
Even the Saya Takagi family's manor seemed dwarfed by it.
In the Tokyo area, the living space has been compressed to the extreme by the Gastrea.
Perhaps only the Tendo family, who are at the pinnacle of power, are worthy of owning such a mansion.
After thinking for less than a second, Kevin made a decisive decision.
"Since we're here… why not go in and take a look around?"
