At this time, although more than an hour had passed since the opening of the mission hall, there were still many ordinary disciples here waiting in line to receive the task.

Huo Xiu turned around a few times at random, found a relatively small team, and began to wait in line.

But as soon as Huo Xiu stood still, he heard a few martial artists whispering something not far from him.

"Fourth brother, have you heard of it? Just now, a fool received a mission from the old madman. ”

"That's true!? If that's the case, we'll have a good show later!"

"yes, I remember a month ago, an idiot picked up a mission from that old madman, and it ended up bleeding and being carried out of the back hall. And last year, I don't know which unlucky guy mistakenly received this task, and when the result came out, he kissed and gnawed on a fierce horse outside the door, so that he was not kicked to death by that horse!"

"Those guys deserve it, they don't have to think about it, they really think that the three thousand contribution points are easy to earn!?"

As they spoke, these people burst out laughing, as if something interesting was going to happen later.

And Huo Xiu vaguely guessed the cause of the incident from the words of these people. It should be that in order to test the power of the items he has refined, a certain elder specially recruited ordinary disciples from the outer sect to come to the test. It's just that these disciples who participated in the experiment were extremely unbearable, and they made a big mess in front of everyone.

"It seems that ordinary disciples are not having a good time, and in order to get more contribution points, they also have to bear a lot of risks. ”

Thinking of this, Huo Xiu also kept sighing, this black evil sect really only focuses on those talented martial artists, and for the martial artists with mediocre qualifications, they are simply regarded as ants.

At this time, Huo Xiu also found that he had gradually approached the counter. And the situation behind the counter, he saw it clearly.

I saw a middle-aged man in his forties and fifties, sitting upright behind the counter, waiting for the disciples of the Black Demon Sect to come and receive the task.

After hearing the task number, the red-faced middle-aged man immediately lowered his head and carefully flipped through a thick book.

I saw that this thick book was dark all over, and every page was covered with dense text. It's just that these words are like living creatures, constantly changing their positions. It looks very similar to the situation on the massive quest stone in the middle of the hall.

Actually, this is a scaled-down version of the quest stele. And this thick book is connected with the stele, once a task is followed, the steward of the mission hall will cross out the task, and the corresponding task on the task stele will be automatically eliminated to avoid disputes.

And there are tens of thousands of various tasks issued by the Black Evil Gate every day, so in order to be able to quickly find the corresponding tasks, the mission hall has numbered each task. In this way, it will be convenient for the stewards to find the tasks that the disciples want to receive in time and promulgate them.

This is also the reason why Huo Xiu did not rush to the counter at the beginning, but stopped in front of the task stele for a long time.

Unconsciously, the martial artist in front of Huo Xiu also received the task, and now it was Huo Xiu's turn to step forward.

It seemed that he had been busy for more than an hour, and the red-faced steward behind the counter was a little tired. Therefore, after feeling someone approaching, he didn't even raise his head, and asked directly: "Report the number you want to receive the task." ”

"Mission 9626!"

Seeing this situation, Huo Xiu didn't want to talk nonsense, he just wanted to take over this task quickly and go to participate in Yue Du's test.

"9626?Mission No. 9626?" After hearing the number reported by Huo Xiu, the red-faced steward immediately flew with his hands, and began to flip through the thick book in his hand, muttering the mission number in his mouth.

But before he could turn a few pages, the man suddenly raised his head and asked Huo Xiu eagerly, "This disciple, are you sure you want to receive Mission No. 9626?"

"What? Isn't it okay?" Seeing that this man's behavior was a little abnormal, Huo Xiu frowned, and a trace of displeasure appeared on his face. After all, this task was about his own plans, and he didn't want to be surprised.

But then, the red-faced action of the manager surprised Huo Xiu.

I saw that the red-faced steward instantly bounced up from the seat, and said with a kind face: "This little friend, you really have a good eye, and you have found this most valuable task at once." ”

Looking at this man's crazy behavior, Huo Xiu's face was instantly full of doubts, he really didn't expect that just accepting a task would make this steward so attentive.

But at this moment, Huo Xiu suddenly remembered. A small number of the tasks issued by this mission hall were issued by those with higher status in the martial arts. Their tasks are varied, and their rewards are uneven. Therefore, there are some extremely unpopular ones, which are hung on the task stele all the year round, and no one cares about them.

And in order to be able to have someone to undertake the tasks they have issued, these high-ranking people give heavy profits to the stewards of the mission hall, and let them help persuade those ignorant outer disciples to come and receive the tasks.

And the steward in front of Huo Xiu should have received Yue Du's promise of heavy profits, asking him to find a disciple to accept the task.

Thinking about this clearly, Huo Xiu smiled indifferently and said, "Lord Steward, the junior brother is talented and stupid, how can he have any insight." It's just that I saw that the reward for this task is quite expensive, so I decided to try my luck. ”

"This little friend is humble. Please wait a moment, and I'll take this task for you right away. In the middle of his words, the red-faced steward quickly flipped through the pages of the book, as if he was afraid that Huo Xiu would regret it.

But at this moment, those martial artists near Huo Xiu, after hearing these conversations, immediately exploded as if they had exploded.

"I heard you right, there was an idiot who aimed at that horrific mission. ”

"Does the sun come out of the west today? ”

"There's a good show to watch today, but I don't know how this idiot will die?"

Hearing this, the red-faced steward's body was shocked, and he seemed to be extremely uneasy. He was afraid that Huo Xiu would escape from the battle, so before he could speak, he preemptively said: "This little friend, don't listen to the rumors of those guys, they are deceiving you." ”

At this time, Huo Xiu had already vaguely guessed the task he was going to receive from the conversations of these martial artists, and it seemed to be inextricably linked to the good show that some martial artists had said before.

However, today, Huo Xiu's mission to Yue Du was bound to be successful. It can be said that even if Huo Xiu is allowed to go up the knife mountain and get off the oil pot, he will not even blink his eyes.
