Following behind the person in charge of the Los Angeles Continental Hotel, the concierge Cole, he walked into the elevator.
Cole reached out and performed a fingerprint identification on a control screen inside the elevator.
Only then did he press the button for the second basement level.
After doing all this, he began to patiently introduce things to Hunter.
"Our Continental Hotel is a killer organization with a very long history."
"Every new member who passes the test and becomes a hotel member can receive a new set of equipment from the hotel for free."
"This includes one to three handy weapons, as well as a set of bulletproof vests tailored to the member's physique."
"After becoming an official member of the Continental Hotel, every member, unless injured, is required to regularly accept a mission at the Continental Hotel or through a computer configured for them by the hotel."
"The higher a member's contribution to the Continental Hotel, the more lenient the hotel's time limit for mandatory mission completion becomes."
"However, although it is mandatory to complete at least one commission mission within a certain time limit, the reward will not be a cent less."
"Furthermore, after each mission is completed, in addition to the fixed mission reward, the Continental Hotel will also provide an extra reward."
Hunter did not speak much and kept listening to Cole's introduction.
He listened very carefully, and only after Cole finished speaking did he ask: "How does the Continental Hotel recruit members?"
"Are they all brought in by recommendations like me?"
Cole smiled and shook his head, answering him seriously: "I actually don't have to answer this question, but I have seen your assessment results, and I believe you will definitely make a name for yourself in the Continental Hotel in the future."
"Therefore, I will make an exception and answer you."
"The Continental Hotel doesn't just have official members like you; many assassin companies or gang organizations you don't know about actually cooperate with us."
"Because of this, we will regularly invite and evaluate some entities that show good performance."
"Once they pass our assessment just like you, Hunter, they will be allowed to join the Continental Hotel and become official members."
"Besides that, official members can also invite people they fancy and recommend them to the Continental Hotel for evaluation."
"You belong to the second type."
Hunter understood, but he also had new doubts.
The elevator quickly descended to the second basement level, but the moment the elevator door opened, a locked alloy door appeared, with an observation window on it.
Cole reached out and knocked on the alloy door. Immediately, a pair of eyes looked at them through the observation window on the door. Soon, the door was opened.
Hunter immediately saw several fully armed, burly men expressionlessly scrutinizing him.
Cole walked out of the elevator first, and he followed behind.
After passing by the few men, there was a straight, long corridor. The four sides of the passage were all covered with metal plates, which looked quite high-tech.
However, Hunter only admired it for a moment before continuing to ask: "Jane Smith, who is with Perkins, her strength shouldn't be below Perkins's, right?"
"But from what I saw of Perkins, she doesn't seem to know about the existence of the Continental Hotel."
This was something Hunter had been very curious about for some time.
Although he knew that the parallel world he had transmigrated into had integrated too many plot worlds, Hunter truly felt that the strength of that Jane was even above Perkins's.
Since the worlds had merged together, it made no sense that Perkins was noticed by the Continental Hotel, but the stronger Killer Wife Jian was not selected by the Continental Hotel.
Cole was stunned when he heard this, but he still smiled and explained: "Perkins was recommended to us by the Assassin Organization she belongs to."
"Not long ago, she just passed our test and became an official member."
"As for the other person you mentioned, although I'm sorry, I don't have much information about her here."
Hunter was good at observing expressions and analyzing emotions; he had triggered two relevant skills in the Proficiency System.
Therefore, when Cole was speaking, he could tell that the other party was lying.
"Could it be that the Assassin Organization Jian belongs to is now somewhat dissatisfied with her, so they are preparing to take action against her?"
Following behind Cole, he soon arrived in front of an inconspicuous office.
Cole knocked on the door and then took Hunter inside.
There were a few people in the office, and when they saw them enter, they all stood up.
"I'm bringing a new member to register information, you all handle it."
"Understood!"
So, after spending a dozen minutes, Hunter was taken to take a few sets of ID photos.
At the same time, he also personally filled out several forms, including his current residence, bank account, and so on.
After finishing, Cole took an ID card and handed it to Hunter.
"From now on, Hunter, you are an official member of the Continental Hotel."
Hunter took it and opened it curiously, only to find that the ID looked very much like a US police or FBI ID. However, it contained some of his own information.
Among them, what Hunter cared about most was that the ID had a 'Contribution' column, which only had an English letter 'D+'.
Cole also noticed his gaze and explained from the side: "Contribution is the contribution you make to the Continental Hotel. You can get promoted after accumulating it to a certain level by completing the hotel's commission tasks, dealing with traitors, etc."
"There are three standards for D-level, which are the lowest D-, D, and the highest D+."
"Your assessment results were very high, so the initial evaluation gave you the highest D+ that can be given to a new member."
"Higher than that would be C, B, and A."
"The higher your contribution, the more services and privileges you can enjoy within the Continental Hotel."
"The most significant point is that with your current contribution, Hunter, you can only accept commission tasks within the Continental Hotel that have a reward of less than five hundred thousand us dollars."
Seeing Hunter looking thoughtful, Cole smiled and patted him on the shoulder.
"Keep it up, we think highly of you."
"I believe it won't be many years before you become one of the members with the highest contribution in the Los Angeles Continental Hotel."
"Follow me, I'll take you to collect your reward and equipment."
After saying that, he led the way out. Hunter put away his membership card and continued to follow behind Cole.
After walking just a few steps out of the door, they entered another room again.
In the entire room, there was only one old man sitting in front of a desk. Behind him were several safes, but they were the kind very common on the market.
"Hi, Porter."
"Hi, Cole!"
Cole greeted the old man and then said to him: "I'm bringing the new member, Hunter, to collect his reward for the newcomer assessment task."
The old man heard this and immediately looked up at Hunter.
The moment their gazes met, Hunter realized that this old man with a Mediterranean hairstyle actually only had one eye. His other eye was empty. For some unknown reason, it had been removed.
