Novel Full Chapter 294 She's Dangerous
After Mira left the building, Robin closed the front door to prevent others from entering the building and made her way up the stairs hidden behind the counter.
She felt that she needed to tell the Branch Head about that little girl as soon as possible. Robin had an extremely bad feeling about that girl and felt that she might ruin their plans if they don’t do something about her right now.
A minute later, Robin reached the top floor and carefully knocked on the door although she was sure that the Branch Head already sensed her.
“Come in.” A deep and powerful voice came from inside.
Robin nervously opened the door and when she entered, her attention was immediately drawn towards the burly-looking man sitting behind a desk. He had extremely short brown hair, a scar over his left eye, and had an incredible physique that radiated power.
“What do you need, Robin? Did something happen?” The man asked, not even looking up from whatever he was doing.
“Ah! Yes, something, or rather, someone came in asking to be a mercenary, but this person… How do I say this? She is an incredibly dangerous individual.” Robin tried to explain the best she could, but soon realized she knew basically nothing about the little girl. She didn’t know her name, face, strength, cultivation, or even her abilities. She was so focused on the menacing aura surrounding this girl that she forgot to probe her strength and abilities!
“So? What’s the problem? If she’s dangerous, that means she’s strong. If she’s strong then she can be of use. Why do you look so flustered talking about this girl? Care to share?” The man finally looked up from his work, looked her in the eyes, and asked her.
“Well, that’s pretty much all I know about her, but this girl’s presence is absolutely terrifying! She’s like a demon, no, even demons would be terrified of her!” Robin was still a bit shaken from her encounter with Mira and almost yelled this at the Branch Head.
Now, the Branch Head was a bit intrigued by the person who made his receptionist feel such fear.
Suddenly, a domineering aura was released from him and crashed into Robin. The poor receptionist girl paled in fright and was forced to kneel on the ground as she felt her bones cracking under the weight of this pressure.
“Oh? Do you think she’s stronger than me?” The man released a sinister smile and retracted his aura, allowing Robin to stand up and catch her breath.
“With all due respect, Branch Head, this isn’t about strength. I didn’t manage to catch her strength, but I doubt she’s as strong as you. What I do know is that the scent of death lingers around her like it’s her slave and her killing intent is so immense that I don’t even dare to guess the number of people she’s killed. It also seems like she has very little patience for those who she doesn’t like or for those who get in her way. She was about to slaughter the entire First Floor simply because they crowded around her like a bunch of wild animals! Such a person is anything but normal.”
Robin hurriedly explained and it seems her words had some effect, but ultimately the man wasn’t too interested in this person. He only cared about people as strong as him. Why should he care about a little fish who he can kill with a flick of his fingers?
“Whatever. As long as she’s not causing too much trouble, just let her do what she wants. She’s just another wolf in an already overpopulated den of wolves. It’s not like you or I care about what happens to the people here. I still don’t understand why we don’t just enslave the lot of them and so we can finally leave this god-forsaken city! Alright, I’ve heard enough about this girl. As long as she doesn’t disrupt our plans, who cares what kind of person she is or what she does? You can go now. ” The Branch Head soon lost interest in this matter and motioned for her to leave.
Robin sighed and mentally shook her head, but did as he said. She knew he wouldn’t take her seriously, but what can she do? She tried to convince him to look into the little girl, but it’s too bad her boss is a muscle-brained idiot.
She thought back to those demonic-red eyes of the girl and shivered. Her presence was completely different to the Branch Heads. While he was able to pressure her due to the difference in cultivation, the little girl was different. When the eyes of the little girl locked onto her, it felt like an icy scythe of death had wrapped itself around her neck.
Plus, the way the little girl looked at her was like she was looking at a bag of meat instead of a human being.
Robin slowly made her way back to the first floor with a heavy heart.

Meanwhile, Mira had already left the city to complete her missions. She chose five missions, all of which are kill missions.
However, before that she wanted to do something rather important. Mira had already dumped everything from her Spatial Rings into her Storage Space on the way to Quake City, but she ended up forgetting something quite crucial.
The Infinity Garden!
She has tons of herbs, bushes, trees, and seeds from the Secret Realm, the Natural Formation, and even some from when she was back in the Battle Maiden Sect. It would be a complete waste to not throw them in her Infinity garden and let them grow, multiplying what she already has.
Not only that, but every day in the outside world is equivalent to 1,000 days in the Infinity Garden. That means that the 2 year time limit is equivalent to 2,000 years for any plants she may have.
This is a godsend for her because what if she needs a 1,000 year-old plant, but can only find an 800-year-old one? She can just toss it in her Infinity Garden and let it age for a few months, in outside world time, and then she has a 1,000 year-old plant!
Mira looked at all the plants in her Storage Space and mentally ordered for them to be dumped into the Infinity Garden.
Luckily, the Infinity Garden automatically sows and organizes any plants that enter it so she didn’t have to do any manual labor.
Now that that’s settled, she took out the Jade Slip Robin gave her and started going through it.
She was surprised by the amount of things available for purchase as it’s definitely much more than a little Branch like the one in Quake City can handle.
This had nothing to do with her though and it’s not like she needed to think much about it. The Mercenary Association is definitely a major power that has branches all over the world. Who knows what such a large organization is truly capable of?
Removing these unnecessary thoughts, Mira searched for the items on her list that she needs for her Core Formation Recipe.
After searching through all the items for over an hour, Mira returned the Jade Slip to her Storage Space and released a faint smile.
Surprisingly, the Mercenary Association actually had quite a few of the items she needs for her Core Formation Recipe.
There are 32 items on her Recipe List and she knows she has four of those items in her possession.
Those four items are Orb of Limitless Death and Infinite Life, Immemorial Dao Comprehension Ice, 1 Liter Frost-Fire Phoenix Blood, and 1 Liter Golden Empyrean Winged Wolf blood.
Those are the four things she knows she has in her possession or can get without any trouble.
On the list of items she can buy with Contribution Points, Mira noticed she can purchase 16 of the items on her Recipe List.
That still leaves another 12 items she needs to either find or complete their respective trial in the F.LD.I.L.
However, that’s not counting the plants, ores, and various other necessary items she is keeping in her Storage Space and Infinity Garden. Once she buys those books and learns more about the items she currently has in her possession, only then will she know exactly what she needs to buy and what she needs to find.
According to the Jade Slip, the books she’s looking to buy will cost her a total of 4,000 Contribution Points. Thankfully, she took 5 missions, each at 1,000 Contribution Points, so she should have enough for the books when she completes these missions.
She was a bit skeptical about the price because most of the other items of similar value weren’t even worth half as much, but she didn’t think too much of it. She’ll just ask Robin when she gets back.
It should only take Mira a few days to a week at most to complete these missions as she only needs to kill a few Early-Rank 6 beasts.
With everything sorted out now, Mira finally started making her way towards her destination so she can complete her missions as fast as possible.
