Chapter 17 -18 Apostle Organization_1
Lin Xun was greatly surprised, and immediately stood up!
This girl in front of him was also an Apostle!
The girl looked at him quietly and passed him the bookmark in her hand.
“Here you go~”
Although Lin Xun looked panicked on the surface, inside he was calm, his mind racing quickly…
On the night of the interview, he entered a magical game called “Book of Salvation”, and was hired without going through the subsequent stages of the application process.
The hiring party was a so-called ‘Special Office of the Bureau of Culture’, a name he had never heard before.
Moreover, his colleagues in the organization directly revealed their identities as apostles to him.
All the clues pointed to the fact that this girl could be an official apostle, and that the ‘Special Office of the Wencheng Bureau of Culture’ could be an official apostle organization, or one of them!
He calmly accepted the bookmark from Ye Xiaoqi and slowly sat down.
“Impressive, it seems you’ve figured it all out, you’re indeed a talent who’s passed the tests.”
Ye Xiaoqi picked up her tea cup, and explained everything to him in detail.
“I’m sure you’ve discovered, that in the text game called the ‘Book of Salvation’, the rewards from it can be brought into reality…”
After hearing Ye Xiaoqi’s explanation, Lin Xun had a rough understanding.
The existence of this supernatural game couldn’t be explained with the current scientific knowledge.

Among ordinary people, some with soul strength far exceeding that of normal people would be absorbed into the game as players.
People like Lin Xun met the soul strength requirement but were discovered by the official organization for having a talent before they could be absorbed into the game.
Players of the game, that is the apostles, were able to bring the rewards from the game into reality.
If not managed properly, it would definitely affect social order.
Thus, with the strong support of officials, an organization named “Apostle Security Council” was born.
The purpose of the establishment of this organization was to study and manage the supernatural forces in the game.
Lin Xun came here to be a regular worker, not realizing that this work was quite ‘extraordinary’.
‘Controlling the supernatural forces within the game’ is an elegant way to put it.
The underlying meaning was: to eliminate those apostles who use supernatural forces at will, causing an impact on society.
“You can consider whether you want to join us. Of course, the benefits of being an official apostle are very good.”
Ye Xiaoqi then listed a series of benefits.
The minimum monthly salary for official apostles is 50,000. Depending on the individual’s talent, you could earn more.
The official organization even provided internal resources to the apostles, allowing those with outstanding talents to grow stronger faster.
They had regular positions, insurance and pension, as well as regular holidays like any other state-run entity. If there were urgent events that required overtime, there would be extra pay, plus a considerable amount of paid vacation each year.
Completion of the organization’s special tasks could be rewarded with both tangible and supernatural items from the game.
Also, the officials had established a forum for apostles. All registered apostles could log into the forum to communicate. Being an official apostle allowed them to access some hidden information.
Truth be told, Lin Xun was quite interested in the resource tilt and information sharing.
As an ordinary citizen, he was now short of money, resources, and information. Naturally, he knew the advantages of having a powerful backing.
Joining the official organization was undoubtedly a good choice.
After considering for a long time, he nodded his head. He was already dependent on the system, and now he had just found another way to make a living.
Seeing Lin Xun nodding, Ye Xiaoqi smiled. The benefits of being an official Apostle were indeed very, very good. It’s impossible not to feel tempted when such conditions were laid in front of you.
“There are six branch organizations under the Apostle Security Council. On the surface, this is a special office of the Bureau of Culture, but in reality, it is the Intelligence Team of the Apostle Security Council.”
“The colleagues on the first floor are our grassroots comrades in the Intelligence Team, responsible for some basic office tasks. The core members of our Intelligence Team, the Apostles, are on the second floor.”
“I’ll take you to the third floor, to the director’s office, to handle the entrance procedures.”
“Let’s go~”
Saying that, she led Lin Xun out of the office and into the elevator.
With a ding, the elevator door opened, and the two arrived on the third floor.
The third floor was different from the first, there were only two offices on either side of the hall. The sign on the door on the left read “Director’s Office”, the one on the right read “Conference Room”.
Ye Xiaoqi walked up quickly and knocked on the door to the director’s office.
“Come in.” A cold and commanding voice came from inside.
Pushing open the door, the office was very spacious and modern.
Behind the desk sat a woman in office-lady attire, her tight black skirt highlighting her curvaceous figure.
Ye Xiaoqi led Lin Xun into the office and settled herself on the couch, naturally crossing one delicate and fair leg over the other.
“Director, the person is here.”
“Lin Xun, this is our Director of the Intelligence Team, Li Xingyue, you can just call her Director Li.”
Li Xingyue nodded slightly and stood up, appearing to be in a pretty good mood, her normally cold demeanor somewhat softened.
She gracefully walked over to Lin Xun and extended a slender, white hand.
“I’m very happy that you’re joining our Intelligence Team.”
Lin Xun stepped forward to shake her hand, the woman’s hand was soft and smooth, and a deep, chilling scent of violets wafted from her body, reminding him of a flower blooming in the abyss.
Li Xingyue motioned for Lin Xun to sit down, then opened a laptop on the coffee table and passed it to Ye Xiaoqi.
Lin Xun glanced at the computer screen, which displayed an entrance registration form.
The short-haired girl took the laptop and sat close to Lin Xun’s right arm, saying, “I’ll ask, you answer, to record the entrance information.”
Lin Xun nodded and began to answer a series of personal information questions…
“Name?”
“…Lin Xun”
Don’t you already know? Why are you still asking?
“Gender?”
“…”
Lin Xun silently sighed, typical of an official organization.
…
“Soul mark?”
“Sword Casting Master.”
“Once you’ve completed decoding the first chapter of the game, you can open the social system, and by then, we will be able to add each other as friends.”
“However, the soul mark should only be disclosed to colleagues in the same department, don’t tell anyone else and don’t add strangers as friends randomly.”
Lin Xun thoughtfully nodded his head.
“Let’s continue, soul talent?”
Lin Xun had a vague feeling of discomfort, observing that Ye Xiaoqi’s gaze was intensely fixed on him, as if waiting for him to reveal his soul talent.
Director Allie, sitting slightly away from him on the couch to his left, was also intently watching him with an apparently…anticipatory look on her face?
What kind of setup was this?
