Chapter 20: The Path of Adventure
Ling Yue ignored Fu Lin, who was speechless by what she said, so she turned back to Huang Cang and said, "I've decided, that's it, how about it? If you're afraid, you can go." ”
Huang Cang said without hesitation: "Of course I'll go, what's there to be afraid of." But, miss, if I get the Demon Crystal, I'd like you to give me a piece, okay?"
Ling Yue said, "Okay, then it's decided! Let's go and pick up the task." ”
Fulin watched Ling Yue and Huang Cang run to the task office to receive the task, which made even them dare not take the task, listening to their tone, it seemed that they were bound to win. He hurriedly ran to the counter: "Miss, you can't go to that place! If you go, you probably won't be able to come back." ”
Ling Yue had already handed her mercenary card to the staff at the counter, and said, "No, enough danger is enough to have enough reward, what I decided will not change, if we can't beat it, we can run! Hey! Hurry up, we're in a hurry, hurry up and register, we're about to go!" The latter sentence was said to the staff at the counter.
The staff at the counter thought that they had misheard, and that no one had dared to take on this task had been accepted by two children, which was really incredible, "Miss, you, are you sure?"
Ling Yue smiled slightly and said, "Of course, you will call me the head of the regiment in the future!"
Looking at the counter staff registering, Fulin was still making the final dissuasion, "Miss, that place is too dangerous, I think you should dispel this idea!"
Ling Yue took the registered card from the counter staff and said, "After the task is completed, can you just come back and give you this card?"
"Yes, this card is the proof of your mercenary group, we have already registered it here, you can rest assured, I wish you all the best in your mission!" the girl at the counter smiled slightly.
After speaking, Ling Yue smiled from Fulin: "Uncle, do you dare to say that you are not old? I don't even have the guts, isn't it just some magical beasts, what's the big deal, I haven't seen magical beasts yet, just go and see it, Huang Cang, let's go!" After speaking, the two ran out of the mercenary union.
Behind Ling Yue and Huang Cang, there was a voice of regret, no one was optimistic about their mission trip at all.
Fulin has been on the mainland for many years, and of course he will not change his position just because the spirit liquid said that he is timid, and said to himself: "These two stunned young people, is there a place where people can go? Hey~ Good luck to you." ”
Ling Yue said to Huang Cang as she walked, "Huang Cang, do you think we can complete this mission? I guess we might be able to make a splash!" She seemed to have forgotten the conflict with Huang Cang in the morning, and her heart was full of anticipation for the upcoming adventure.
Huang Cang was not dissatisfied with Ling Yue's task, and even had some expectations, because this was also a big test of his strength, he hesitated for a while and said to Ling Yue: "Miss, I want to ask you, have you seen what that crystal looks like? ”
Ling Yue showed a mysterious smile that made people very confused, and said, "Of course I know what it looks like, otherwise how would I have taken on such a difficult task." ”
Huang Cang asked sluggishly, "You know?"
Ling Yue said proudly: "Of course, my father is the king of the empire and the most powerful magician, I haven't seen anything, you see." As she spoke, she pointed to the scepter in her hand and said, "This is the best crystal, which was specially customized for me by my father." ”
Huang Cang really hadn't paid attention to Ling Yue's magic scepter, and when he looked closely, he couldn't see anything special, the white scepter body was radiant, revealing a faint divine aura, like an angel's wings, and his appearance was still exquisite.
Ling Yue nodded and said, "Yes, that's what my father told me, he definitely won't lie to me, don't you believe it?"
Huang Cang took a closer look at the gems on it and didn't see anything special. Ling Yue said again: "There will be a strange energy fluctuation when the crystals meet each other, and I will definitely recognize them when the time comes." Alright, let's go shop for some items and let's go!"
Huang Cang followed Ling Yue to a steamed bun shop, and Ling Yue said, "Don't you like steamed buns, prepare more to eat on the road." Huang Cang was stunned for a moment, and his heart fluctuated slightly, but he didn't say anything, so he followed.
As soon as he saw Huang Cang and Ling Yue's arrival, the boss said excitedly: "Do you want to buy steamed buns? My steamed buns are all freshly baked, guaranteed to be delicious!"
Ling Yue leaned over and said, "We just want to buy steamed buns, how much does it cost?"
The boss stretched out two fingers and said, "Two copper coins each, the price is absolutely affordable, if Miss buys more, I can give you some discounts." ”
Ling Yue glanced at Huang Cang again, Huang Cang didn't look at her, just stood aside coldly, and thought to himself: "It seems that he is still angry with me, what a stingy ghost, it seems that if you want him to die to be my follower, you still need to pay some price." She didn't know that what she had done had completely broken Huang Cang's heart.
Thinking of this, Ling Yue said to the boss: "Boss, bring me five hundred steamed buns first!"
Huang Cang and the owner of the steamed bun shop both looked at Ling Yue in surprise, and the boss suddenly felt a softness under his feet, and said in a lost voice: "I heard me right, five hundred? Even if I make it, how can the two of you take it? ”
Ling Yue looked at him and said, "I want five hundred, I want it today, we keep it for the night, don't worry about how you take it, besides, we are not short of money." After speaking, Ling Yue took out the purple gold coin and threw it to the boss, pulling Huang Cang and leaving.
Huang Cang was also very curious, he didn't care how much weight five hundred steamed buns were, but he couldn't carry so many steamed buns on his back to carry out the task, right?
The boss said behind them: "How can I finish so many steamed buns in one night!hey~"
Leaving the steamed bun shop, Ling Yue began to make a lot of purchases, and bought a few clothes for herself and Huang Cang, of course, these things arrived in Huang Cang's hands, Ling Yue hadn't come out to shop for a long time, so she felt fresh when she saw everything, almost all the shops in the small city were walked by her, and before she knew it, it was already dark, and she was just about to return to the steamed bun shop, but she found that there was a group of samurai wearing armor in front of her blocking the way.
The armor on these warriors shimmered, they were not very old, they looked like they were in their twenties, more than a dozen people, wearing the same attire, they all had the badges of the mercenary group on their bodies, several of them also had the emblem of the second-level mercenary, the most conspicuous was the female mercenary, with long golden hair scattered, delicate hair between the eyebrows, and a long scimitar on her back, which shone with a dazzling luster.
They appeared in front of Ling Yue, Ling Yue was not a little surprised, just hid behind Huang Cang, and said, "Huang Cang, they seem to have some bad intentions, it's up to you next." ”
Huang Cang didn't speak, nodded, stepped forward and said, "Do you have anything to do?" We're in a hurry, if it's okay, please let go." ”
The leader of this group of mercenaries stepped forward and said: "We know that the two of us are magicians, we are members of the Stygian Mercenary Group, I am the head of the group Yue Lun, these are all members of our group, we have no malicious intentions, I know that the two of you have taken over the task of the Reaper Mountain Range, and we are also very interested in this task, so we have come to seek cooperation." ”
Huang Cang asked, "Seeking cooperation?"
Yue Lun nodded and said, "Yes, I wonder if we can go on an expedition together?"
Hearing that he was not a bad person, Ling Yue hurriedly stepped forward and said, "You want to cooperate with us, what is your purpose?"
Yue Lun smiled slightly: "Miss Magician, you should be the head of the regiment! You also saw it, we are all young people, we have all heard what you said in the union, it is just to take risks, and there is no other purpose, we all want to see this kind of place." If you have a lot of crystals, I would like you to give us some of them, and that will be enough. If it weren't for you, Miss, we wouldn't have the courage. ”
Ling Yue thought carefully for a while, and thought to herself, since Fulin said that the Death Mountain Range is dangerous, it seems that it is not a lie, if there are more people, the chance of success is also very high, after all, there are more people and it is very lively, and it can just change the embarrassing atmosphere between herself and Huang Cang, so she nodded and said, "Yes, you can, however, I have one condition." ”
Yue Lun said without hesitation: "What conditions you say, as long as they are not too excessive, we can accept them." ”
Ling Yue said: "You must all listen to me on the road, don't make your own decisions. ”
The blonde girl walked up to Yue Lun and said, "Then what's the matter, you are not from our mercenary group, why should we listen to you." ”
Ling Yue pinched her waist and said, "Then I don't care, anyway, if you want to go with us, you have to listen to me, don't forget, the crystal can only be identified by me." ”
Hearing this, Yue Lunlen said: "Since Miss said so, no problem, we will listen to your command throughout the whole process." ”
The blonde was about to speak but was stopped by Yue Lun, Yue Lun said, "Sister, whoever makes you talk too much is none of your business." ”
