Chapter 114: Carrying out the task

Before he knew it, he had walked in front of a tall building.

I accidentally looked up and saw the mercenary's badge carved on the building.

Huang Cang's heart suddenly moved, although he couldn't go to the Magician's Guild to receive the monthly salary, he was still a mercenary! With his own skills, it should be easy to complete some simple tasks.

Thinking of this, he walked directly into the mercenary union.

Due to the late day, there was no one in the mercenary union, so Huang Cang walked directly to the counter, ready to take on a task.

There was a young girl standing behind the counter, she saw Huang Cang's dejected appearance, and said disdainfully: "Do you also want to be a mercenary? ”

Huang Cang looked at the girl's hateful face, felt sad in his heart, and said lightly: "I'm not here to be a mercenary, I'm a mercenary myself." ”

Huang Cang whispered a few incantations, and suddenly, a blue halo leaked out of Huang Cang's chest, and the mercenary card that had been registered flew out and fell lightly in his hand, and he handed the card to the girl, waiting for her response.

The girl couldn't help but be a little surprised when she saw the blue light emanating from Huang Cang's body, she didn't expect this seemingly down-and-out person to have this ability.

After taking the card, she opened the thick registration book of the mercenary union and checked it, and after a while, the girl seemed to have found Huang Cang's information, and said in surprise: "Ah, are you a member of the special mercenary group Cangyue?"

Huang Cang shook his head and said, "We should be an ordinary third-level mercenary group, how did we become special-level." ”

The girl said: "This is a record that will always come, and there will be no mistake." It says that you have completed a special mission, and the union has made an exception to upgrade you to a special mercenary group, and the head of the group, Ling Yue, and the deputy head of the group, Huang Cang, have also been promoted to special mercenaries. Ah, what you have completed is to recover the best magic crystal from the Death Mountains, and the reward for this task is very high! If it weren't for the fact that the task was completed by you and the Golden Wolf Mercenary Group, maybe you would have been promoted to a super mercenary group. After all, there are still very few people who can complete special tasks. ”

Only then did Huang Cang realize that it must be Yue Lun who had reported himself and Ling Yue when he was delivering the task with the best magic crystal, after all, they had taken this task in the first place.

I don't know what happened to Yue Lun and them, I haven't seen each other for two years since I said goodbye last time.

After the girl found out that Huang Cang was a special mercenary, her tone was obviously much more polite, and she asked tentatively, "Do you want to take on the task?"

Huang Cang woke up from his thoughts, "Oh, I want to take it, what tasks can be completed relatively quickly, the remuneration doesn't matter, it's generally fine." ”

The girl looked at Huang Cang suspiciously, and said, "Relatively fast to complete?" Such tasks are generally low-level, and correspondingly, the remuneration is much less, are you sure? With your current level, you should take on some high-level tasks." ”

Huang Cang only needed to be able to maintain his travel expenses to Qingyun City now, and he didn't have any desire for money, so he nodded and said, "I'm sure, any task is fine, as long as it can be completed quickly." ”

The girl nodded, pointed to the task board behind her and said, "Then you can choose by yourself, generally ordinary tasks are relatively easy to complete, such as sending letters and the like, they are relatively simple." Since you have been promoted to a special mercenary, the card needs to be changed, you choose the mission first, and I will help you change the card. With that, he turned and walked inside.

Huang Cang looked at the task board of the mercenary union, starting from the bottom to the top, there were a lot of tasks, but he searched for a long time below, but he didn't find a suitable one.

He gradually looked upward, and finally found a task in the area of the first-level mission, this task is to ask the mercenary to send an item to the city lord's mansion, and after the city lord opens the item, it will be completed.

Well, let's just do this task, the pay is enough, and it can save time.

At this time, the girl had already turned back, and Huang Cang's original card was replaced with a gold card, which was engraved with the logo of the mercenary union, which was extremely finely made, and the treatment of the special mercenary was really different.

When Huang Cang told the girl about the task he wanted to take, the girl said: "This task was put up not long ago, and it is very strange that the reward for the task was actually paid in advance, a total of fifty gold coins. Isn't this too easy for you? We also have a special mission here that you can consider. ”

Huang Cang shook his head and said, "That's it." I still have things to do, and I can't afford to delay too much time. ”

The girl agreed, quickly registered Huang Cang, and gave him the items that needed to be delivered and the reward of fifty gold coins.

Walking out of the mercenary union, Huang Cang found a nearby restaurant, spent three gold coins to eat a big meal, he converted the depression of others as a beggar into food, and ate enough food for three people to settle the bill and leave satisfied.

After leaving the restaurant, Huang Cang secretly thought that the remuneration given by others had already been spent, and it was time to do things for others.

I picked up the wooden box in my hand and looked it up and down, but I didn't feel anything special. The wooden box to be delivered has a beautiful appearance, with auspicious words carved on it, and the corners are wrapped in metal, but the weight is very light, and you can't hear anything inside when you shake it gently.

Although Huang Cang was a little confused, he also knew that mercenaries could not just dismantle and look at the delivered items

rules, asked passers-by the direction of the city lord's mansion, and went straight.

The Mansion of the City Lord of Yunlan City. Suo Ge, the lord of Yunlan City, who is in his early sixties this year, is not only the lord of a city, but also the governor of the entire Yunlan Province, overseeing the affairs of the whole province and being a hereditary marquis.

Yunlan Province is a large province in the Chiton Empire, and being able to serve as a governor here shows the trust of the empire's top brass in him.

Today, his friend Su Wan, the grandson and godgranddaughter of Zheng Bai, the governor of Yajin Province, came to visit him on behalf of Zheng Bai, and brought many precious gifts, which made him very happy, and specially set up a banquet to entertain him.

He and Zheng Bai have been friends for decades, when they were young, they used to be a pair of powerful upstarts, and they both successfully inherited the titles left by their fathers, and then climbed to today's position with their extraordinary brains.

The two were rarely able to see each other because of their respective responsibilities as they got older, but this did not affect the relationship between them.

Although Zheng Bai could not come to see him in person because of his busy official duties, he would always send his cronies to visit him.

Of course, he will also let his cronies pay a return visit.

The two provinces are also ironclad because of their relationship, and they have a very great influence in the entire Chiton Empire, and even the king of the empire will not easily make any major changes in understanding of these two important provinces, and everything is handled by themselves.

Soge and Zheng Bai have become the sole rulers of the Qiton Empire, and one-third of the military power of the entire Qiton Empire is in their hands.

"Grandpa Thorge, on behalf of my grandfather, I would like to toast you and wish you good health. ”

Zheng Yuan, the grandson of Zheng Bai, who was dressed in white, raised his wine glass and toasted to Soge with a smile on his face.

Soge took a sip of the wine in his glass, laughed, and said: "You're welcome, I've heard that you are young and promising, and when I saw you today, you really deserved your reputation! At a young age, he was appreciated by his old man and became a registered disciple of the vast god. Your grandfather is so blessed! You're much better than my grandsons, who don't have a good climate and only eat, drink, and have fun all day long. ”

As soon as he heard Soge mention the four words of the Vast Venerable God, Zheng Yuan's eyes suddenly showed a look of reverence, and he said humbly: "How can our junior compare to you, I heard my grandfather say that at the beginning, you single-handedly put down the rebellion of the entire Yunlan Province, compared to you, what is my small achievement." ”

Su Wan, who was sitting next to Zheng Yuan, watched her brother deal with Soge with a calm demeanor, and couldn't help but show a faint smile on her pretty face.

The purpose of their visit this time is to let Zheng Yuan have more contact with this feudal official, contact and contact feelings, Zheng Yuan is young and promising, and has already been designated as Zheng Bai's direct heir, these are all tests that he must go through.

Until now, all his answers have been very decent.

After listening to Zheng Yuan's words, Soge, who was already a little drunk, suddenly had an old face, who doesn't want his heroic past to be complimented, he laughed and said: "I'm already old, and the years are not forgiving! ”

At this moment, the servant walked up to Thorge and whispered, "My lord, there is a man outside who claims to be a mercenary who said that he has been entrusted with a gift for you. ”

Suo Gezheng was chatting happily with Zheng Yuan, but he was suddenly interrupted, and he was naturally unhappy, he had never had a good impression of the mercenary profession, and always thought that those people were just low-level civilians, and said impatiently: "Don't you see that I have a guest here? Just let him leave the gift." Do you want me to deal with this kind of thing myself?"

The servant said in fear, "But he insisted on seeing you, saying that he would hand over the things to you with his own hands." We chased him several times but couldn't get rid of him. He had a bit of kung fu, and the guards guarding the door were all knocked down by him. ”

Soge snorted and said, "You dare to come to me to make trouble, it's not a small boldness! I'm here to see what this mercenary is capable of. ”

The servant took the order, and after a while, he led a tall, black-haired and black-eyed young man to the outside of the hall, the young man's simple clothes were torn in many places, and he looked very down-and-out, he was holding a wooden box in his hand, although he looked down-and-out, but he had a temperament that people did not dare to ignore, and a pair of bright black eyes flashed with a faint brilliance.

Zheng Yuan and Su Wan glanced at each other, wasn't this the beggar they had given alms not long ago? Why did they become mercenaries again? and dare to come to the City Lord's Mansion to provoke.

Suo Ge was also looking at the down-and-out young man, he could be firmly in the position of the governor of Yunlan Province, and his vision for knowing people was naturally not bad, although this young man was dressed ordinarily, but the temperament on his body told him that this was not an ordinary young man, his heart moved, and he waved to the servant, signaling him to bring the young man in.

Huang Cang spent a long time outside the door to convince the servant to inform him, and when he reached the door of the hall, he immediately recognized that the girl who was sitting at the table in the hall was the girl who had given him alms earlier.

The tattered on Huang Cang's body was in stark contrast to the luxury in the hall, and everyone except for Suo Ge and Su Wan, the girl in white, showed a look of disgust.

Soge put down the wine glass in his hand, looked Huang Cang up and down a few times, and said, "Why do you have to hand over the things to me personally." ”

Huang Cang glanced at Zheng Yuan and Su Wan in front of him, and said, "I am a mercenary, and the task I took over required me to do so, this is a gift, please accept it." ”

As he spoke, Huang Cang handed over the wooden box.
