Chapter 124: Chapter124-Chief Captain Emily

Noticing John's perplexed look, the receptionist spread her hands and said, "Come on, handsome, don't look at me like that. I'm just following the standard registration process."

John couldn't help but retort, "Standard registration includes measuring penis size?"

This was a first for John, having never encountered a situation where such measurements were required.

Even in the most awkward police station encounters, such details were never asked.

The receptionist blinked and insisted, "Of course, we need to register that. How else are we supposed to tailor equipment for you without knowing your body?"

John found himself momentarily at a loss for words.

Eventually, under the receptionist's insistent prompting, John capitulated and filled out all the required information.

The receptionist, pushing up her glasses, looked eagerly at John's information.

When her eyes landed on a particular entry, she couldn't help but gasp, covering her mouth with her hand.

Then, her gaze uncontrollably shifted towards a certain area on John, filled with shock and disbelief.

Ignoring the receptionist's astonishment, John asked impassively, "Can I go in now?"

Snapping back to reality, the receptionist nodded quickly, "You can go to the 12th floor. Chief Captain Emily works there. Just confirm your information with her, and then you'll have free access to the headquarters."

As he turned to leave, the receptionist couldn't resist giving John a few more glances, murmuring to herself, "Can it really be true? That's just terrifying..."

John's mouth twitched, suppressing the urge to turn around and join the Judicators instead.

He hurried towards the elevator, taking several deep breaths to expel his frustration.

Upon reaching the twelfth floor, John found the office marked [Chief Captain: Emily] and knocked on the door.

A voice as gentle as flowing water answered from inside, "Please come in."

Pushing the door open, John was first struck by the sight of mountains of paperwork and discarded balls of paper strewn about.

Then, his eyes landed on a woman with sky-blue long hair seated behind the desk.

Her face was exquisite, and she was dressed in a black Hidden Stars uniform, adorned with a shiny platinum badge on her chest.

Her emerald-green eyes rippled like water, strikingly beautiful.

The woman, named Emily, had a dignified and graceful appearance, with a gentle and approachable demeanor.

Just by looking at her, one could sense a pure and flawless beauty, akin to a refreshing mountain stream, soothing and delightful to the soul.

At that moment, she was frowning at the documents in front of her, seemingly troubled by some matter.

John observed her, recognizing that this must be Chief Captain Emily.

Unexpectedly, she was not only incredibly attractive but also held a position two ranks higher than Victor within Hidden Stars.

However, Victor's situation was unique due to being suppressed, so comparisons were not straightforward.

Hidden Stars had seven rank levels: Apprentice Member, Full Member, Deputy Captain, Captain, Chief Captain, Deputy Director, Director.

Correspondingly, there were seven types of badges: Iron, Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Diamond, Stellar.

For someone so young to have achieved the rank of Platinum-Level Chief Captain, it was clear she had a promising future ahead.

Even with John's critical eye, he couldn't deny that Emily was an exceptionally beautiful woman.

The aura she radiated was distinct from any other woman he had encountered.

In that moment, Emily finally seemed to embody some aspects of a Chief Captain of Hidden Stars.

If it weren't for the title "How to Guide Newcomers" written on that slip of paper, John might have believed it entirely.

John had run out of words to describe his feelings about this Chief Captain.

After thanking Emily, he headed to the 11th floor.

The logistics department was much more reliable than Emily, having prepared John's equipment well in advance.

The equipment issued to John this time was a standard Hidden Stars uniform, badge, and weapon set.

Reaching the silver-level position within Hidden Stars, the equipment provided to John was naturally of a higher caliber compared to the attribute-less gear he had used during his probationary period.

To John's surprise, all three pieces were silver-tier equipment.

The Hidden Stars uniform and weapon offered some attributes, but nothing particularly special.

It was the Hidden Stars Badge that truly opened John's eyes.

This piece of equipment was remarkable, providing functionalities and features that John had never seen before.

...

John had long been aware that the Hidden Stars Badge was a special piece of equipment crafted by the organization's advanced blacksmiths.

However, it wasn't until now that he truly appreciated the skill of these blacksmiths.

The Hidden Stars Badge not only provided four types of attributes but also came with two incredibly practical skills.

Particularly, the access to Hidden Stars' terminal platform was a marvel of high technology, nothing short of awe-inspiring.

Holding the badge in his hand, John felt a sense of reflection.

Indeed, there are no useless classes, only underutilized awakeners.

He knew that this world harbored some very special classes.

Classes such as mechanics, hypnotists, pharmacists, among others, showcased a variety of skills.

Compared to warriors, magi, priests, their abilities and skills leaned more towards the scientific aspect.
