The Main Bureau for the Management of Original Universe Planes.
Outside the personnel sub-department stationed in the Andromeda galaxy.
Ding Yun once again looked at the announcement on her consciousness screen, issued by the Universe Management Office for the Universe Mau Ding Xu Wu, stating that the universe had entered its final stage of decay and was requesting personnel to work abroad for assistance.
She finally let out a long sigh.
She stepped into the personnel sub-department.
After winding through countless corridors, she finally found a familiar friend who was responsible for the coordination and assignment of plane tasks and asked:
"Zi Yun, I want to find a part-time job.
Do you have any recommendations? Preferably one with high income, as I'm in urgent need of origin points.
Difficulty or danger is fine."
"Rare, you're short on origin points!
You haven't had any major expenses lately, have you?"
Fu Zi Yun murmured in surprise for a moment, then immediately asked with concern, "Did something happen?
If you're in urgent need, I can lend you some!
Short-term, no immediate repayment required."
"It's not me who's in trouble, it's my birth universe. It's my mother universe, after all. If I can help a little, I will. At least I won't have any regrets or guilt.
Here, this is the universe's announcement.
As for borrowing, let's not. I only plan to do my best and leave the rest to fate. I'll help as much as I can, and no more.
After all, living with a huge debt is too difficult.
So, please introduce me to a part-time job.
I'll help as much as I can when the time comes."
Ding Yun refused her friend's kind offer while explaining the situation, and then projected her consciousness screen to show her friend, displaying the universe announcement she had received.
"Did you ask your universe management office about it? What if it's a scam?"
Fu Zi Yun was still worried.
She reminded Ding Yun once again.
Ding Yun shook her head helplessly and said with a wry smile, "I wish it were a scam.
But unfortunately, it's not. I remember when I was studying history, I learned that 1.7 million years ago, several top civilizations in our universe with connections to the Original Universe received a notice from the Original Universe, informing them that our universe had entered a period of cosmic decay.
Now, counting the time.
It's probably time for it to enter its final stage of decay.
And before I sent back all the origin points I've saved over the years, I had already contacted the Universe Management Office. I confirmed it before transferring all my origin points back.
In fact, I can't help much.
It's just a small contribution."
"What, you sent back all the origin points you've saved over the years? Are you not going to live anymore?"
Upon hearing Ding Yun's last sentence, Fu Zi Yun could no longer remain calm. She suddenly stood up, her voice rising considerably.
She asked with extreme surprise.
Ding Yun, on the other hand, was relatively calm. She quickly reached out and patted Fu Zi Yun's shoulder, signaling her to calm down and sit down, not to get too agitated:
"Hey, it's okay.
I don't have any urgent need for origin points anyway. If I lose them, I can earn them back. My origin points can be earned back, but if my birth universe is gone, it's truly gone."
"But didn't you want to save origin points to buy an eternal life potion for your mother? You were almost there, and now you've donated it all. When will you be able to save enough again?
And don't forget.
You haven't taken the eternal life potion yourself yet."
Fu Zi Yun was genuinely worried about Ding Yun now. It was understandable to donate some origin points when the birth universe was in trouble and decaying, but donating everything was a bit too much.
She should at least think about herself.
"I don't need to buy an eternal life potion for my mother anymore, because my mother talked to me a while ago.
She said she doesn't want to live too long.
Living for a thousand or eight hundred years is enough.
Besides the eternal life potion, there are other potions that can extend life, although their effects are not as good as the eternal life potion. If my mother changes her mind when her lifespan is nearing its limit in five hundred years,
We can use other potions to extend her life first.
It won't be too late to save origin points then.
Ah, I won't talk about this with you anymore. Please hurry and help me find a high-paying part-time job. Preferably one that doesn't conflict too much with my main job, so I can earn double origin points."
Ding Yun explained the situation briefly and didn't want to dwell on the matter any longer. She urged Fu Zi Yun to help her quickly.
"Your mother is quite open-minded.
Okay, then please wait a moment. I'll check the latest part-time job listings for you."
Seeing that Ding Yun was indeed a bit anxious, and considering that good part-time jobs could indeed be taken by others first, Fu Zi Yun quickly began to focus on finding a suitable part-time job for Ding Yun.
"Good" here primarily referred to the salary.
About half an hour later, Fu Zi Yun found some results and then asked hesitantly:
"A Yun, I've looked for you.
Excluding large-scale recruitment part-time jobs that require participation in wars, such as conquering wizard universe seas and attacking divine universes, the job with the highest salary is the Sixth Generation Golden Finger Trial Member. It also doesn't conflict much with your main job, and you can even complete it concurrently.
However, I've heard that this Golden Finger Trial Member job isn't easy. Some golden fingers might not have undergone any testing, and their defects are unknown when they're given to trial members. Many people have been screwed over and cursed.
Would you consider a job with a lower reward?"
"No need, this one with high salary is fine.
The Golden Finger Trial Member should be pretty good. At least I'll have a free golden finger to use. Even if there are some defects, it's still better than having no golden finger!
Zi Yun, please help me coordinate it."
Ding Yun didn't think this part-time job would be that bad. Fu Zi Yun had only mentioned it after seeing the comments, and she herself didn't think there were any major issues with this job.
So she quickly nodded and helped Ding Yun coordinate the corresponding part-time and main jobs:
"A Yun, I've spoken to them for you.
Ajin, who is responsible for assigning you plane tasks, has agreed to try his best to arrange mission worlds based on the golden fingers you need to trial.
Also, if you're really too tired, remember to take a break or cancel the part-time job. Don't treat the rise and fall of your universe as your sole responsibility.
Although, the prosperity of the country is the responsibility of every citizen.
But this is not the past. It's not like in the past where if a universe decayed, all life within it would die. Now, the Original Universe will arrange for migration. So, don't carry too much psychological burden, and don't wear yourself out because of this."
"Don't worry, I understand! Thank you!
You're busy. I'll go to the Golden Finger Trial Department to report now and pick up a mission to see.
I'll treat you to a meal when I have time!"
"Don't wait for later, let's do it this week during the holiday."
"Alright, then see you later!"
"See you!"
