#13 - Collection Department

After waiting for about ten minutes, Li Nuo received his own data pad.

This thing was well-made, about the size of a mobile phone, and made of solid materials. In addition to green pixels, it also had red, blue, and yellow pixels.

The registration instructions on the screen mentioned that this data pad was the apprentice's work card and access card, and must be carried with them at all times.

Each apprentice's work location and hours are different, see the registration instructions for details.

Amy was assigned to the experimental department.

Her working hours were from 9 am to 5 pm every day, standard nine-to-five, which was enviable.

Li Nuo's department was the collection department.

His working hours were from 7 am to 10 pm, almost twice as long as Amy's, which stunned him.

Amy leaned closer to look at Li Nuo's screen, secretly clicking her tongue at the exaggerated working hours:

"Working hours of 15 hours? Counting 7 hours of sleep a day, you only have 2 hours for eating, drinking, and resting. That's too bad. Is the collection department going to turn you into a servitor?"

Li Nuo scratched his head:

"It shouldn't be, the parts for a servitor are much more expensive than my life. The Tobacco Factory wouldn't do a losing business. Besides, my test scores were so good, wouldn't it be a waste to turn me into a servitor? I suspect that the work in the collection department is on-call, so the daily working hours will be longer."

"Well, that makes sense."

Amy's brow furrowed slightly, and the route map guided her to the other side:

"I'll go first. If anything happens, we'll talk when we meet."

"Okay, see you later." Li Nuo waved his hand and followed the route map to the nearby elevator platform.

There were no buttons in the elevator platform, it could only be activated with the data pad, and the target floor was underground.

Exiting the elevator platform, Li Nuo stepped into the hall on the first floor underground, where there were already more than thirty people.

After waiting for a while, the last person arrived, bringing the total number to eighty, mostly young men in their early twenties.

There were less than ten students like Li Nuo who were not yet adults.

A male voice came from the loudspeaker on the wall:

"Good morning, welcome to the Collection Department, I am your supervisor. First of all, I have good news for you, this department does not charge tuition fees."

"Wow, you can work without paying? That's great ~"

Someone shouted from the crowd, and everyone nodded in agreement.

Li Nuo was speechless, feeling that his values were incompatible with the lower hive.

The broadcast continued:

"The main task of the Collection Department is to explore the lower hive and obtain the core raw materials needed to produce new types of tobacco. Due to the particularity of the work location, new employees of this department must undergo strict training. Now, use your data pad to open your locker, change into training clothes, and start today's training course."

The broadcast ended.

One side of the wall in the hall shifted downwards, revealing a spacious changing room filled with metal lockers.

There were employee badges on the lockers, corresponding to everyone.

The people on the scene looked at each other, but did not immediately go to change clothes.

After hearing the word "Lower Hive", many people felt a strong fear.

In textbooks, the Lower Hive is designated as a forbidden zone for life, located at the bottom of the Hive City.

There are no pipes to deliver air, no filters to purify water, no lighting facilities, and no warming fires. It is not a place where humans can survive.

Usually, only monsters, cultists, and mutants can take root in the Lower Hive, and occasionally there will be out-of-control feral servitors and rebels wanted by the Hive City.

Going to such a place to obtain raw materials is no different from sending yourself to death.

"Supervisor, are you sure we are going to the Lower Hive to collect raw materials?"

Someone asked timidly.

The air was silent for a while, and everyone quietly waited for the supervisor's reply.

"Yes, I'm sure." There was no emotional fluctuation in the supervisor's words.

The person who asked the question earlier raised his right hand:

"Supervisor, I give up this job, please let me leave. Although the Lower Hive is a bit rotten, it's still better than the Lower Hive."

"Yes, I want to give up too."

"Me too, I want to leave here."

Several people waved their arms under the surveillance cameras.

They had jumped ship, and now they must be regretting it.

If they had known that the Tobacco Factory would send them to the Lower Hive, they would never have given up their original jobs.

"I approve your resignation applications. Others who want to give up can leave with them."

Several people walked towards the elevator platform, causing many people to have the same idea.

For a time, half of the people on the scene were walking towards the elevator platform.

Li Nuo became the only Lower Hive teenager in the audience who did not choose to leave.

He had reverence for the Lower Hive in his heart. He was not in a hurry to leave because the supervisor had not said anything about the salary and benefits.

Such a dangerous job must have generous rewards.

If he found that the output was not equal to the gain in the end, it would not be too late to leave.

A device like a laser gun appeared on the ceiling, and a red ray shot out from the device, quickly scanning the people walking towards the elevator platform.

A line of text appeared on the data pads of these people:

"You have been eliminated, please follow the guidance of the navigation route to the recycling department to return the data pad."

When everyone who wanted to leave entered the elevator platform, an iron fence fell, sealing the people on the platform inside.

The male voice in the broadcast appeared again:

"Oh, sorry, I forgot to tell you about the treatment of the collection department, this is my negligence.

"Those who complete the training, if they are not finally accepted by this department, can unconditionally transfer to other departments of the Tobacco Factory and enjoy double the salary.

"If you are fortunate enough to become a formal employee of this department, then congratulations, you will enjoy the gene modification service of a planetary defense force company-level commander for free, and obtain your own weapons and equipment."

The people on the elevator platform were all stunned, their eyes widened, and they shouted at the fence door.

"What?! Free gene modification service? Why didn't you say so earlier!"

"Are you playing with us?!"

"Let me out! I just need to pee! I didn't want to leave!"

The elevator platform rose rapidly, and the shouts faded away.

Li Nuo looked up at the loudspeaker, feeling that the supervisor had a kind of bad taste.

If the other party had put the treatment at the beginning, then maybe 90% of the people would have stayed.

Now it's good, half of the people have left.

If I were the boss of the Tobacco Factory, I would probably be half dead from this kind of骚operation.

Could it be that the supervisor of the collection department and the factory director have a feud?

But then again, the salary and benefits seem to be pretty good. Let's see the intensity of the training first, and if it's really not possible, then slip away.

Li Nuo thought secretly.

"Listen up, kids. The annoying guys are gone, now it's training time. Hurry up and get moving, you must change into training clothes within ten minutes. The training volume of the last person will be doubled!"

Everyone moved at the sound and ran into the changing room to change clothes.

Li Nuo quickly took off his coat and put on a tight-fitting elastic suit made of an unknown material.
