"Oh?" Germain stared at Felder, as if waiting for him to continue.

"Lord Viscount, we are young and inexperienced, but we are very united. ”

Germain looked at him and didn't speak.

"Then allow me to introduce the team members. My name is Felder, and I am a knight-in-a-apprentice of Earl Hackett. This is Vane, a magical genius who graduated from the Obohar Academy of Magic. Elena, a marksman, can shoot a mouse from a distance of 100 meters. Eth, a mage majoring in natural magic, is a reliable healer. Simpson, though he has no special skills, is so powerful that he once crashed into a bull......" Felder continued with a serious look.

Vane listened to the sweat coming out, kicked Felder, interrupted him, and said: "Lord Viscount, we really want to complete this task, but if we really can't meet the requirements, we will give up, and it will not affect your search for your daughter." ”

Jermain shook his head slowly, sighed lightly, and said in a trembling voice: "I only have such a daughter as Mina, she is only eight years old, and she is much more important to me than these wealth and honors. It was two afternoons ago, I took Mina to play at the intersection of the manor, and suddenly fainted inexplicably, and woke up to find that Mina was gone. I mobilized everyone to search frantically, and finally found one of her shoes in the grass to the east, which was close to the Everfree Forest. Even though I know that Mina may have been unlucky, I still hope that someone can help me find my daughter, even if it's ...... Corpse. ”

After speaking, Germain's eyes glistened with tears, and his straight back became bent, as if he was ten years old.

Vane's eyes gradually reddened, his teeth clenched his lips, he had never felt father's and mother's love since he was a child, but at this moment he was moved.

"Viscount, then we'll ......" Vane stood up and prepared to take his leave.

"You can go and pick up the mission. Germain looked up and said.

"What?" the eyes of the men widened, their expressions of disbelief.

"I'll give you a letter of mine, take it to the Mercenary Guild to pick up the quest. After speaking, Jermain picked up a pen and began to write on a piece of paper. Soon he put down his pen, took out a picture from the wooden box on the table, looked at it, folded it with the letter paper and put it away, stood up and turned around and walked out the door, then stopped again, and said softly: "Please bring her back." ”

No one spoke on the way out of Valen Manor, and the atmosphere was unusually dull. Elena looked at the photo, a little girl with brown hair tied into two braids, wearing a pale yellow dress and a glittering crystal necklace, sitting on a chair and smiling happily, but the sweet smile was now heartbreaking.

When I returned to the Mercenary Guild again, the sun was already in the west, and the task list had already been stamped with the blue seal of the Mercenary Guild. Everyone dragged their tired bodies to a nearby tavern, with an interesting name, "Mercenary's Harbor", and it seemed that the boss's main target customer was mercenaries.

"Boss, three, no, four Sorson beers. Felder leaned back in his chair and said limply.

"No, five glasses. Ace exclaimed.

Everyone drank beer and ate food in silence.

"Have you heard, a bounty mission was released today, and the reward is actually a hundred gold coins!" a somewhat shrill voice came from the table next to it.

"I've known for a long time that this quest has already been claimed, and it is said to be a mercenary group called the Black Ghost. Another voice said in a somewhat deep voice.

"The Black Ghost, I haven't heard of it at all, I'm afraid it's not a liar, right?" said a shrill voice.

"I've inquired, this mercenary group has only been established for more than a month, and it is composed of a few children under the age of twenty, and it is really unknown whether to dare to take on such a task. A deep voice said.

“......”

"Bang!" Felder put his beer glass on the table and turned to leave the tavern, and Elena hurriedly checked out and left.

"Felder, what are you angry with strangers, they just talk casually. Elena chased after her.

"I was impulsive. Felder said with a low mood as he held the hilt of his sword. "They were right, we really don't have the strength. ”

"Don't be so pessimistic, we might be able to make good use of the gold we have. Vane said after a moment's thought. "This time I went to the Everfree Forest, no more than the valley last time. We need to buy enough gear and items to get the most out of everyone. ”

Then it turned into a carnival of the two women, Elena and Eis, who dragged Vane and them to visit all the shops on the east side of Central Street, and except for a thick leather vest and two tents for Simpson, all the gold coins were turned into ...... Food.

Looking at the pile of bread, cured meats and dried fruits, Vane's heart was full of tears, what about the equipment and items he said?

The night was as dark as ink. It was the last night before departure, and Vane was in the inn bed to arrange his satchel and bags, while Felder stayed downstairs to drink.

Vane placed more than a dozen common magic herbs in small bags in the satchel according to their usage habits, and "Experiences in the Wizarding World" lay quietly at the bottom of the satchel. And the obscure scroll brought from home, after Minister Rostry's identification, turned out to be a high-level dark magic scroll, the group stealth technique, which was also carefully placed in the dark layer of the satchel. The other items that everyone needs to bring have been handed over to Simpson for safekeeping.

"Knock knock. There was a soft knock on the door.

"Elena, come in. Vane opened the door and was stunned for a moment.

"No, Vane, there's something I want you to help me with. Elena said as she looked at him with her hands behind her back. The dim light in the room softened her face.

Vane looked at her and nodded unconsciously.

Elena reached out from behind her back, and saw her holding a small fluffy object in her right hand and said, "This is the lucky rabbit's foot that my grandfather left me, and he said it would bring good luck." I want you to keep it for me, in case I ......"

"What nonsense are you talking about, Elena!" Vane said in an angry tone. "You'll be fine, this mission is not ......"

Vane's words stopped halfway as Elena's index finger rested lightly on his lips. She looked at Vane and smiled, "Promise me Vane, if I have an accident, maybe not this time, please give this rabbit foot to my grandfather." Vane's eyes darkened, and he nodded slightly, watching Elena leave.

Vane leaned against the head of the bed and looked at the lucky rabbit's foot in his hand, which had a small hole in the bone above it. He thought for a moment, took off the pan flute that was tied with a sisal rope and hung around his neck, and untied the rope to tie the lucky rabbit's feet together. Lying on the bed, Wayne straightened the pan flute and rabbit's feet hanging from his coat, and then fell into a deep sleep.
