Chapter 1119 Cuckold
“Young man, I’ve been talking all this time and forgot to ask your name!” Zack said, feeling embarrassed as he scratched his head with his chubby hand.
“My name is Alex Jefferson,” Alex said with a friendly smile.
As for Zack, who had a sincere and honest personality, Alex had a rather favorable impression of him.
“Alex, since we’re both going to find those deities from the secret forces, why don’t we go together? We can look out for each other. I’m going to the place where the Grant family used to live in Lumenopolis to apply as a chef for the Leight Sect’s deities. Why don’t you come along and give it a try?” Zack enthusiastically invited Alex.
Alex was surprised that they were heading to the same place after hearing the names of the Grant family and the Leight Sect, so he agreed to it.
“Okay! Zack. I’ll go with you.”
When the two arrived at the entrance of the Grant residence, it was bustling like a marketplace, with at least several hundred people gathered there.
Upon seeing such a grand spectacle, Alex was astonished. Im’t this a bit too exaggerated? Are all these people Here just to find a job under someone from the secret forces?
“There are actually fewer people this time! There were so many more in the past couple of days! You wouldn’t believe that nearly ten thousand people line up every day at the place where the Raven Sect is located. The scene is just unimaginable!” Zack exclaimed.
If it weren’t for the expensive accommodations in Lumenopolis, he wouldn’t have to travel back and forth by car every day.
After carefully observing the hundreds of people outside, Alex noticed that ordinary individuals like Zack were not the majority. Instead, there were many wealthy people wearing designer clothes and watches, driving luxury cars.
“Zack, do you know what those rich people are here for?” Alex asked Zack curiously.
“Of course, these wealthy people don’t come to be a chef for the deities of the secret forces like me. They want to join the sect and learn the arts from a master.” As Zack said this, he sighed and looked somewhat disheartened.
“If I were as rich as them, why would I still want to be a chef? I can’t help but feel excited at the thought of learning incredible skills from a master. However, the reality is that the registration fee alone amounts to one million per person, with no guarantee of acceptance. It’s a fortunate stroke of luck if you manage to capture the attention of those self-proclaimed deities from the secret forces. But if you’re not chosen, that one million would go down the drain.”
Out of these millions of people, there must be at least two or three hundred who came to sign up. Just considering the registration fees, it amounts to nearly a hundred million. Even Alex couldn’t help but admire such a money-making method.
“Zack, from what you’re saying, this must not be your first time here, right?” Alex asked.
“Of course, I’ve already tried five or six times, and I’ve been to almost all the other places, except for the Leight Sect. This is my last chance, and I don’t know if I’ll be chosen.” Zack sighed, and the honest smile
on his face disappeared.
As Zack spoke, a sense of melancholy washed over Alex. In the face of the secret forces’ intrusion, instead of banding together to resist, these individuals not only lacked unity but also considered it a privilege to work for them.
