With My System, I Can Even Tame Gods

Chapter 71 New Information (1)

There was only silence that filled the area after Lin Fan said this.

Feeling the aura that came from Lin Fan, this mercenary group couldn't help feeling fearful of him since they knew that they couldn't beat him in a fight.

But before anything could happen, there was a person that came over and gave a clap that broke the silence.

After everyone's attention had been drawn by her, she suddenly said with a smile, "Alright, let's leave this matter here."

When the people who had been watching saw who it was that came over, some of them clicked their tongues like their fun had been ruined, but they didn't keep looking in this direction anymore. However, there were also those that felt that this development was more interesting since they knew who this woman that came over was.

The mercenary group who had tried to start something with Lala saw this person as well and felt much more confident.

The leader of the group came forward and pointed at Lin Fan while angrily saying, "Leave it at that? This man has insulted the Mercenary Guild by threatening us mercenaries and you want to leave it at that? I demand that we receive compensation from him!" Then after saying this, his eyes turned to Lala with a lewd look as he said, "If she's willing to come along with us, then we can call it even."

Lin Fan narrowed his eyes when he heard this and a cold look appeared.

As this happened, the leader felt a chill run down his spine which forced him to take another step back.

The woman who had come over gave a sigh and then shook her head before saying, "Young master Lin, please don't mind them. These people are well known thugs that have caused problems before, please just leave them to me."

,m Lin Fan was surprised to hear the woman addressing him directly, but hearing the sincere tone in her voice, he chose to listen to her. After all, it wouldn't be good for him to cause too much of a scene here.

The woman gave a nod to Lin Fan after seeing his reaction before walking up to the leader of the mercenary group. Her eyes swept over him before saying, "Compensation? Shouldn't you be the ones paying compensation?"

The leader of the group was taken aback when he heard this, but then he came back to his senses as he asked, "What do you mean? We are mercenaries that are registered with the Mercenary Guild and you're protecting an outsider like this?"

Then his voice turned a bit dark as he said, "Is the Mercenary Guild certain that they want to act like this? If this was known, it would be a large blow to the Mercenary Guild's prestige."

The woman shook her head and then said with a helpless smile, "Who told you that they were outsiders?"

The leader of the group was once again taken aback by this as he said in a stunned voice, "What do you mean?

The woman turned to raise her hand to gesture at Lin Fan before saying, "This young master Lin here is also a registered Mercenary, but unlike you all, he's a B Rank Mercenary." Then after a pause, she said in a cold voice, "He's not someone that D Rank Mercenaries like you could compare to."

The three members of the mercenary group all looked at Lin Fan with shock as the leader stuttered, "B…B Rank Mercenary? He's…a B Rank Mercenary?"

They knew that they had messed up.

Just like in any organization, there was a hierarchy.

D Rank Mercenaries weren't considered that low on the hierarchy, but they were certainly low when compared to B Rank Mercenaries.

For a D Rank Mercenary to go against a B Rank Mercenary like this was like a manager going against the department chief. There was no doubt that there would be consequences.

The mercenary group naturally knew this, so the leader's mind quickly turned before he said, "I don't believe that this man is a B Rank Mercenary at all, how can you prove this?"

This was the only straw that he could grasp at this point.

While it was a long shot, as long as Lin Fan didn't have his Mercenary License with him, he wouldn't be able to prove anything. At that point, he was free to say whatever he wanted since there was no proof.

But it was too bad that he really was just grasping at straws.

The woman said, "You're doubting my words? The words of a Mercenary Guild official?"

The leader ignored this and said, "As long as there's no proof, who knows what's the truth. You could be…"

Before he could finish his words though, Lin Fan gave a cough to cut him off, drawing everyone's attention to him.

Lin Fan casually pulled out a rectangular thing from his pocket and held it up for everyone before saying, "Is this what you're looking for?"

When they looked at the thing in Lin Fan's hand, they immediately revealed different expressions.

The woman revealed a smile while the mercenary group revealed looks like they were dying. After all, the thing that was in Lin Fan's hand was his Mercenary License.

This was a rectangular piece of silver that had some writing on it.

Once a mercenary became a B Rank Mercenary, the Mercenary License that they received changed from the normal piece of paper to this piece of engraved silver. It was also said that once one became an A Rank Mercenary, their Mercenary License would turn into a piece of gold.

Lin Fan had received this B Rank Mercenary License during his period of earning money.

With all the B Rank missions that he was taking, he had earned enough credit to receive the official rank up to become a B Rank Mercenary.

Once this B Rank Mercenary License was brought out, there was nothing that the mercenary group could say.

The leader wanted to say something, but the woman cut him off by saying, "Since your one argument has been countered, I don't think there's a need to keep this going anymore. From this moment forth, you and your group are kicked out of the Mercenary Guild and your licenses have been suspended." Then after a pause, she added almost as if she had suddenly thought of it, "You will also lose the right to apply for another license for the rest of your lives."

The final words she said were like the final nail in the coffin for this mercenary group.

They didn't want to give up and had wanted to argue a bit more, but the woman snapped her finger and had some staff pull them out.

After that was taken care of, she waved her hand at Lin Fan and Lala to follow them before heading into the back of the Mercenary Guild.

Lin Fan didn't follow right away as he looked at Lala, but seeing the look that she gave him telling him that she was alright, he followed behind this woman.

This woman led them to the second floor of the Mercenary Guild and to an empty room. Only after the door was closed did the expression on her face change, but it changed in a way that Lin Fan didn't expect.

Instead of having a serious look, she came over to Lala with a worried look and asked, "Lala, are you alright? Don't mind those idiots."

Lala had been shaken at first, but after Lin Fan had taken her by the shoulder, she had already started to recover. Once they came to this room, she was already back to her normal self.

She said to the woman, "Big sister, I'm alright."

Then she turned to Lin Fan and said, "Lin Fan, this is big sister Xia Mei. She's the head receptionist here in the Inferno City Mercenary Guild branch."

Lin Fan was confused as he asked, "Head receptionist?"

Lala explained, "The head receptionist is the one who manages the receptionists and hires new receptionists, so unlike the normal receptionists, they are considered officials of the Mercenary Guild who actually have power. As a side note, big sister Tian Tian is the head receptionist back at our branch."

Xia Mei gave a nod before saying, "Little sister Lala, Tian Tian, and I used to work together when we were mercenaries, that's why we're so close."

Lin Fan fought back the urge to ask the question in his mind which was pertaining to their age since he knew that would be the worst question to ask in this situation.

Xia Mei didn't notice this as she said to Lala, "Little sister, I already heard about what happened with your family. Are you alright?"

Lala revealed a sad look, but then she turned to look at Lin Fan before turning back with a smile on her face, "I'm fine now."

Xia Mei was surprised to see this smile at first, but then she looked at Lin Fan with a smile as well as she said, "It seems like you're quite the man. I'm even interested in you." Then after a pause, she said with a sigh, "Well, it's too bad that you're already little sister Lala's man."

Lala gave a chuckle before saying, "Big sister, are you interested?"

Xia Mei was surprised to hear this before asking, "You don't mind?"

Lala shook her head and gave a sigh before saying, "I would, but he already had other girls before me, so what else could I say?" Then she revealed a smile to say, "Well, he's strong enough and good enough to us that we don't mind."

Xia Mei was once again surprised, but then she changed the topic by saying with a cough, "Putting that aside, I have some information that Tian Tian wanted me to pass to you."
