Chapter 45
45 A ‘big celebrity’
Fu had just been to United Pharmaceutical company this morning and had seen the magnificence of the large company.
But now that he had entered The Platinum Hotel, the shocked expression came on again.
In contrast to the Grand and solemn ‘joint pharmaceutical’, The Platinum Hotel exuded extravagance everywhere.
Fu didn’t dare to take another step after taking his first step through the door.
There was a white square velvet carpet under her feet.
fu remembered that when he was young, the tribe had once hunted an adult white swan.
At that time, a travelling merchant who passed by the tribe bought the White Swan and paid enough money for the hundred people of the tribe to eat and drink for a month without working.
The pure velvet carpet in front of him had to be made of at least dozens of swans!
But now, they were casually placed at the door for people to step on.
“sir, please show me your identification.”
Link casually took out the omniscient gold coin that painter John had given him and flicked it into the air.
The White-gloved attendant at the door caught it quickly, and after carefully examining it, he gasped in shock.
He handed the gold coins back to link with both hands.”please come in, sir! I hope you’ll have a home-like experience at Platinum Hotel.”
“this is my attendant. you can just bring him to the lounge and wait there.”
link then turned to fu and said, ” Fu, if you want water or are hungry, just tell them. The food and drinks here are free.
“Don’t worry, Mr. Link. We’ll definitely give your entourage the most comfortable experience.”
“Oh? You know my name?”
The attendant at the door immediately lowered his head and said in a humble tone, ” “the most legendary killer artist in the history of platinum hotel has only recommended you as a member in his life. Although this is your first time at Platinum Hotel, you’re already a famous person here.”
Hearing the artist’s name, link was so angry that he gritted his teeth.
He had always been the one scheming against others. When had he ever been schemed against to this extent?
One day, he would get back at them.
ah fu was led to the waiting area by the waiter. link walked into the platinum hotel and went to the front desk.
At the front desk of the hotel, there was a man in a formal suit who looked exquisite and meticulous.
seeing link approach, she slowly put on a sincere smile.
“Platinum Hotel is at your service.”
although the man tried his best to put on a gentle and normal expression, link still noticed that his eyes kept wandering around him with curiosity.
“I’m going to buy something,”
The man guided link to his side and said,”I’m the manager of this Platinum Hotel, Yingluo.”
“Thomas, I know.”
Thomas’s mouth was slightly agape. He didn’t expect the other party to say his name first.
Link was secretly pleased to see Thomas’s surprised expression.
Although it had only been one night, all the information about his actions since he entered Shandu must have been sorted into a file and appeared in The Platinum Hotel’s database.
Even Fu had to look closely to recognize link when he came out of the United Pharmaceutical company. These people, however, could easily recognize him. This was enough to explain something.
Just as the attendant had said, the legendary assassin artist of Platinum Hotel had only recommended one person in his life-link. How could Platinum Hotel not value someone recommended by the artist?
Since that was the case, he might as well be more mysterious. That way, he would be safer.
“What would you like to buy, Mr. Lin?” thomas, the manager, asked as he led the way.
I’m just looking around. I’ll buy anything at a suitable price. After all, I only have one gold coin.
Thomas’s mouth twitched. He suddenly realized that link was preparing to use the gold coin the painter had given him.
Although this omniscient gold coin was no different from the others, the person who gave it away was The Platinum Hotel’s strongest assassin in history. Moreover, it was the only omniscient gold coin that had been given away, so it was very memorable.
Any killer or bounty hunter would treat this gold coin like a treasure.
A person who could receive John’s recognition and recommendation must have something extraordinary about him, and he definitely wouldn’t be someone who didn’t know what to do.
Thomas’s heart ached.
Was this gold coin worth nothing to link?
thomas and link took the elevator to the second floor.
link’s footsteps were light. he didn’t even need thomas’s guidance to know the location.
Thomas asked carefully, ” perhaps, Mr. Lin has been to Platinum Hotel before? ”
“would you believe me if i said i came here in my dream?”
“I do.”
As the first member recommended by John, The Platinum Hotel immediately investigated Link’s background when they received the news.
In The Platinum Hotel, all the members ‘information had to be entered into the system and created a file.
This file was not a personal data, but a resume.
The more achievements and missions he had accomplished, the richer his resume would be, and the higher his rating would be.
Ding! Ding!
As the elevator door opened, link and Thomas stepped into the hall.
” welcome to the member-only service area. may i know where mr. lin would like to start? ” Thomas was like a considerate Butler, always serving link.
Thomas, don’t you need to guide the other members at the front desk? ”
yes. Thomas bowed slightly. welcoming the new members is more important.
Link didn’t say anything. He remembered that when he’d come to The Platinum Hotel with the omniscient gold coin in his previous life, Thomas hadn’t been by his side at all. He’d only said, ” please come in, Sir.
But now, he was accompanying her and asking about her well-being at all times. His service was simply too considerate.
“Let’s go to the weapons area first.”
The weapons section was Link’s favorite place in his previous life.
If the weapons shops outside were all filled with fixed weapons and low-level white equipment, then the weapons section in Platinum Hotel could be described as ‘treasure’.
All the weapons were made by outstanding mechanics.
Modifying all original weapons can cope with various extreme combat environments. It can even customize magic modifications according to the needs.
Every time he came to Platinum hotel’s weapons area, the weapons displayed and recommended were different. It was a kind of pleasure to win a prize and open a box.
Link looked around and realized that the weapons were as expensive as he remembered.
“mr. lin, take a look at this ‘duke of destruction’ assault rifle. it’s the latest developed assault rifle, and it has dual modes of a rifle and a howitzer. the rifle bullets have a heat-explosive melting effect and can penetrate 30 mm armor plates. The howitzer uses a special radiation shell, which will cause area radiation damage after explosion. After the second expansion, the magazine has reached a terrifying 60 rounds!”
“Mr. Lin, this is the death knell. It’s equipped with bullets made of a new type of concentrated liquid explosive that our professional team formulated. It’s lethal, and its range of attack is more than three times that of a normal grapeshot, and its damage is more than five times that of a normal grapeshot! It’s definitely your first choice for killing and robbing in your home life!”
“Mr. Lin, I strongly recommend this semi-automatic pistol with an electric lock. It’s very cost-effective and only costs two omniscient gold coins. It comes with a retractable red dot sight, and the bullet head has a condensed current. After determining that it hit the enemy, it will release an electric current effect for up to ten seconds to paralyze the enemy.”
Link looked around while Thomas explained to him.
Whenever link had his eyes on a weapon for more than a second, he would explain its effects.
It didn’t matter if link didn’t have money now, but the person the painter valued couldn’t be poor forever.
And if he wanted to get omniscient gold coins, he had to keep accepting missions at Platinum Hotel.
Thomas was well aware of the psychology of these killers and bounty hunters. After seeing these new weapons and equipment, few people could move.
“Yeah, it’s pretty good.”
link was indeed interested in the semi-automatic pistol with an electric lock. unfortunately, it was too expensive. he would think about it when he had the chance.
Thomas was a little surprised to see that link had only given a perfunctory reply.
In the past, there was no lack of self-restrained killers. On the surface, they looked down on these weapons, but many of their eyes and small movements betrayed their true thoughts.
However, link was really walking. Whether it was his footsteps or his eyes, it was as if he was just taking a look.
after that, lin ke took a cursory look around the equipment area. he did not have any lingering feelings.
” mr. lin, next up is the last common area of the exclusive service area. there are all kinds of auxiliary items and some strange little things here. ”
Link walked into the common area. This time, he looked carefully and slowed down.
the layout of the common area was very much like an art gallery, with many things being stored in vacuum glass cabinets.
In the open space, there were many post-modern sculptures and famous paintings from the old era hung on the walls.
There were even complete medieval armors, just like the ones found in the wind howl Castle. After nearly a thousand years, the armor still exuded a charming metallic color. It seemed that it was well maintained.
Soon, link stopped in front of a glass cabinet. There was a white card in the corner.
The shroud of Pharaoh tumeng
Wasteland era, year 38, 1st of December. A Pharaoh’s coffin was found during the excavation of the tumeng pyramid. After opening the coffin, the Pharaoh was wrapped in a shroud. It has been in contact with the Pharaoh mummy for a thousand years and possesses a mysterious power.
“I didn’t expect Mr. Lin to be interested in this item.”
after all, he was born in the desert. There’s still a little respect. link said as he handed over the gold coin.
Thomas and the staff were both stunned. They did not expect link to use gold coins to buy this.
The staff member looked at the hotel manager Thomas and asked if he wanted to accept the gold coin. After receiving Thomas’s affirmative look, he respectfully reached out his hands and took the ‘heavy’ gold coin.
“Mr. Lin, please wait a moment. I’ll take out the things and wrap them up for you.”
After spending the gold coins, link felt extremely relaxed.
While waiting for the packaging, he began to wander around aimlessly.
Suddenly, Lin Ke saw a white marble sculpture of a woman’s head against the wall.
The most attractive thing was not the rare ancient Roman style of the head sculpture, but the Golden pendant hanging on the neck of the head sculpture.
Against the White marble, the gold pendant shone brightly.
in particular, the unique death beetles formed a water drop shape that protected the sacred beetle in the middle. it was filled with a mysterious and foreign color.
Death Worm, Scarab.
Lin Ke did not expect to see something of the same element in The Platinum Hotel.
