The next day, the five of them got up early, but when they arrived at the 'Yao Mei Mansion', it was already crowded. Of course, no matter how many people there are, it doesn't matter their business.

As mentioned in the previous part, the 'Yao Mei Mansion' is a star system, and tasks are distributed according to the star rating of the recipient.

The staff in the 'Yao Mei Mansion' includes the proprietress, a total of five people, each staff member is responsible for each star counter, the staff responsible for the three-star and four-star counters are the most tired, and the proprietress is responsible for the five-star counter, the proprietress looks like she has not woken up, yawning on the counter.

Seeing that several of them were in good spirits but didn't know the rules, they shouted loudly, "Don't get in the way of the five of you, one or two stars are on the far right!" ”

The five looked around, unaware.

"It's you, the two men and three women at the door, do your homework in our mansion when you go back, don't make jokes."

This said, causing everyone to laugh, here three or four stars look down on one or two star players, as for five-star players, the boss lady can only receive one or two a month, it is said that the five-star bosses are sent to some extremely dangerous and mysterious tasks.

The captain is a person who has experienced strong winds and waves, and this ridicule is not even an itch for her, and she bowed politely and thanked the boss for the hint, and led everyone to the two-star counter.

"What are these people so arrogant, isn't it just a little higher in star, the goal of our Zhiyong Regiment is five stars." Gran stomped her foot, visibly angry.

A three-star player next to him glanced at Gran and said, "Do you think the difference between a three-star star and a two-star star is just one star?" The difference between each star is not one or two points, I see that you don't think you can do it with five stars, maybe you can achieve it in the next life, hahahaha. ”

"You ......"

"Gran, Hugh is rude!" Marsham grabbed Gran's clothes and threw her to Li Wan'er, smiling politely at the man just now.

"Please select a task." Miss Maruko at the counter opened the task system and said, "After you make your choice, click on the words 'Claim Task' at the back." If there is a foul in the middle, deprivation of other people's property, damage to the interests of others and other villain behaviors, once it is verified, you will not be able to step into the 'Yao Mei Mansion' for life, and the commission will be confiscated, so please consider carefully. ”

Marsham glanced at her badge and said, "Miss Maruko, I'm sorry for you." ”

"It's okay, there's no one but you anyway."

......

"What kind of tasks are these? We are not family conflict mediators, nor are we emotional counselors, for example, what helped Aunt Zhang succeed on a blind date and helped the lovelorn Mr. Cai regain his self-confidence...... "Gran has been complaining non-stop.

"As long as you talk a lot, let's see how Malsham chooses."

Jirek covered Gran's mouth and looked at his wife.

"Excuse me, Miss Maruko, are there any other types of tasks?" Malsham asked.

Miss Maruko patiently explained to her: "The mission of the mansion was initiated by the client, and we can't create a task for no reason, there are only so many tasks this morning, maybe there will be other types of tasks in the afternoon." ”

The atmosphere was awkward for a while......

Jirek rolled his eyes and thought of a move.

"Such a beautiful young lady is worthy of this flower." I don't know when he had an extra flower in his hand, Gilric winked at Miss Maruko, put the flower on her head, and pulled Marsham to pretend to leave without waiting for her to react......

Before Malsham's mental activity was over, he was stopped by Miss Maruko, but it was for the sake of Gilric's face.

"Hey, several, there's a mission here, I don't know if it's to your liking."

Jirek stepped forward: "This beautiful young lady, please speak." ”

"You sign this responsibility contract first, and then click to receive the task."

Giric handed the contract to Malsham, and she signed it after making sure there were no problems.

After Miss Maruko helped them confirm, she sent them the details of the task: "Good luck to everyone, this is your 'work card', after the task is completed, the commission will be automatically transferred to the captain's system account, and the payment will be delayed in case of holidays." ”

......

Several people went out.

"Jirik, what a bold lately! What do you mean by giving flowers to someone else? Still want to miss it? ”

Malsham grabbed his ear unceremoniously and made a turn.

"Wife, listen to me, for the sake of the task I sacrificed my hue in exchange, spare me."

Jirek covered his reddened ears, and passers-by couldn't help but laugh when they saw him like this, and hurried past when they were discovered.

"Where do you say the flowers come from?"

"Wife, look."

I saw that the vines in front of her were blooming one by one, and Jiric plucked them and gave them to her.

Marsham pretended not to care and took the flowers, and said, "I said why do you like to make things behind my back lately, and clean up all these useless things." ”

......

When you come to Hejia Village, you can see from a distance that the sky above the village is shrouded in a black mist.

System prompt: When you arrive at the destination, please complete the task within three days, and if you overtime it is considered a breach of contract, you must complete it within the specified time.

Taslo shut down the system and said, "Daddy, there's a time limit for this mission." ”

Malsham tapped Taslo's head and said, "Do you all know what the mission is about?" ”

"Clear!" Everyone shouted in unison.

"Then Taslo, tell me about this mission."

"Captain, you don't believe me?"

"Taslo, I didn't say it, I just got everyone to get acquainted with it again."

Taslo looked aggrieved and said, "The purpose of our visit to Hejia Village this time is to find out the source of the unknown black mist over the village, and then solve it. ”

Captain: "That's what it means, let's go into the village." ”

......

Before entering the village, they had to be checked, and even if they showed that they were from the 'Yaomei Mansion', they could not escape the 'grabbers' of the two strong men at the entrance of the village.

"May I ask the two eldest brothers if they have checked." Jirek held his hands up in the air, uncomfortable, and he was touched from head to foot by a man for the first time.

"Let's go inside!"

......

When we entered the village, everyone was not affected by the black mist above us, and the children frolicked and played when they should play, and the adults farmed and cooked......

Less than ten minutes after the five of them entered the village, they were greeted by a white-haired old man: "Presumably the five are the people sent by the mansion, I am the village chief here." ”

"Hello village chief, we are the Wisdom Warriors, I am the captain Marsham, and the few behind me are my teammates Jirek, Gran, Li Wan'er and Taslow."

"Okay, please come with me, I've already arranged a place for everyone to live." The village chief touched the white beard and led the way in front.

"Village Chief, when did the mist appear above here?" The captain walked ahead to negotiate with the village chief, and except for her husband and Taslo, who followed behind, the other two were already surrounded by children.

Boy A held a large pile of flowers and gave them to them: "Sister, you two are so beautiful. ”

Gran was overjoyed, touched the boy's head and said, "Your mouth is so sweet, this candy is for you." ”

"Thank you."

Li Wan'er looked at the captain who was getting farther and farther away, pulled the corner of Gran's clothes and said, "Let's follow quickly." ”

......

"Village chief, why did it take a month to entrust the 'Yaomei Mansion'?"

Village Chief: "At first, when the black fog first appeared, the people in the village still cared very much, but after a few days, something strange happened, everything under the black fog crops grew unusually fast and unusually well, at that time, I thought that God favored us, so every family regarded this black fog as a godsend. Later, one day someone reported, saying that the livestock at home will always disappear for no reason, and there is no trace left after disappearing, I am too busy because of too many things in the village, and I don't care too much, so I let the people below help deal with it, and then more and more people came to me and said that their livestock are missing, and the more livestock disappears, the better the crops will grow, I carefully pondered that this must have something to do with the black fog, in order to avoid causing panic and dissatisfaction among everyone, so I ask you to deal with this matter secretly, If you need to come to me directly, remember not to say it. ”

"Okay, don't worry, I'll explain."

The village chief stopped, pointed to a row of bungalows in front of him, and said, "When your residence arrives, someone will bring you food regularly, and there is still something in the village, so I will take my leave first." ”

"You walk slowly." The captain responded.

As soon as the village chief walked with his front foot, the other four opened the door with his back foot.

Gran took out the key and opened the door to the living room, and walked inside: "The room is really simple enough. ”

Malsham looked at the time and said, "Let's rest for a while, and then we'll do it after lunch." ”

A few people gathered around the table and began to chat, because the mist covered the sky, and the whole village seemed to be black.

Feeling a little out of breath, Gilrich opened the window, leaned on it, and looked out to see a small river not far away, in which three or five or seven women were washing their clothes, and in the river there was a black thing that was motionless and covered with hair.

An old lady diverted his attention, and saw the old lady walking towards the bungalow with a basket, and if she guessed correctly, she was the one who the village chief had arranged to bring them food, and Jiric jumped out of the window without saying a word.

When he came to the old aunt, the sudden appearance startled the old aunt, and the basket almost fell, but fortunately Jiric caught it quickly.

"Young man, why are you all talking about it?" The old aunt said as she stroked her chest.

"Auntie, you go back first, I'll take it to the bungalow myself." Gilrek lifted the basket and smiled.

"Okay, then I'll go back and take care of my grandson first." The old aunt saw the badge on his waist and made sure that he didn't send the wrong person.

......

"What are you mad about? The good door does not go, but the window is opened. Malsham scolded Gilrick as he climbed through the window.

"Wife, don't be angry, I'm not going to get food." Jirek hurriedly opened the basket, and a smell wafted out.

"Why don't you get it yet!"

"Yes!" Jirek saluted.

After lunch.

Captain: "The first step is to find the edge of the mist. ”

"Yes!"

When I came to the back mountain, I finally found the edge of the mist, and there were some unknown objects wriggling on the ground, and if I didn't look closely, I couldn't find it at all.

"It's really not a simple mist, it's a gathering of small black worms." Li Wan'er took a dead branch and made a small hole, and when she pulled it out again, the insect automatically filled the hole again.

After he summoned the vines, the vines grew uncontrollably, and if it wasn't for the timely recovery of the vines, it might alarm the entire village, and it would be difficult to explain to the village chief at that time.

Taslo grabbed a handful of bugs and put them in the palm of his hand, and in a few moments, the bugs multiplied at an alarming rate of three times as before, accompanied by Taslo's screams in the process.

"Ahh It hurts! ”

Taslo hurriedly shook off the bugs, and when he looked into the palms of his hands, the palms of his hands had been eaten by the bugs, and the blood was dripping on the dirt, and the bugs looked extremely excited.

Jirek hurriedly grabbed Taslo's hand, and under his healing, the flesh in Taslo's palm grew back.

Taslo touched his palm and said, "Thank you." ”

Li Wan'er: "I kind of know, the livestock in the village disappeared for no reason, and they were eaten by these insects, but there are several questions, where do these insects come from, and why are they good for plants when they come together......"

......

"Oh no, it's dead!"

Captain: "Let's go back and see what happens." ”

When he came to the scene of the incident, several corpses were covered with white cloths, and blood was constantly oozing from the white cloths, and Jiric stepped forward to uncover the white cloth of one of them, and found that the deceased had been gnawed all over his body, and some places had been gnawed to expose his bones, he helped the deceased cover the white cloth, returned to them, and whispered: "It's the same situation as Taslo." ”

Gran grabbed a man and asked, "Where did these people find them?" ”

The man's body was constantly shaking, and it seemed that he had witnessed the scene.

"At that time, I had some urgency, I saw a bush next to me and wanted to go in to solve it, when I picked up the grass, I saw a black thing, I didn't care at the time, and continued to do my thing, when I just finished solving, a white ball of meat fell out, I took a closer look, it was an eyeball, scared me and hurriedly ran out for help, and when I found someone, those black things scattered and disappeared, I thought there was only this one victim, but I didn't expect them to find several bodies in the grass one after another."

The speaker remembered that the bloody corpse could no longer speak, and Gran let him go.

The captain pinched his chin and thought for a while, and said, "It seems that they can't wait, no wonder the village was surprisingly quiet when they first came in, there was not even a sound of toads, it seems that everything that can be eaten has been eaten by them, and now there is no meat, they have begun to prey on humans, not good, we have to evacuate everyone as soon as possible, a few of you scattered to inform the villagers, I will go to the village chief, action." ”

Soon, with everyone's cooperation, the village chief and the villagers temporarily hid in the next village.

......

"We're going to hurry up before they move." The captain had his weapons ready.

Gran looked at the sky and said, "Looks like they're hungry again." ”

Gran threw darts at them, but they dodged them easily, and the target was too nimble for Gran to hit.

"Everyone, get out of here!" Gilrick made a protective barrier out of vines.

The voices outside are getting louder and louder, and the people inside are getting more and more anxious.

Captain: "There are too many of them, and even if we can kill a large number of them with one sword, they will eventually drag us down with a numerical advantage." ”

Taslo: "It seems that the only way to find their source is to find them." ”

Gran: "We're going out now and we're dead, so how can we find a source?" ”

It dawned on Jirek that he remembered something.

"I think I know where they came from."

At this time, the oppression outside was getting bigger and bigger, and he pulled Marsham and said, "Wife, follow me, everyone come with me." ”

He truly loved her.

......

Jirek pauses and asks everyone to look out through the flowers.

The captain asked, "What are you bringing us here for?" ”

It's the river that Jirek saw this morning.

"Take a closer look at what's in the river."

At that time, Jiric didn't care when he saw something in the river, and he realized that the real mastermind was here.

Taslo: "A monster with black hair all over his body, he is good at hiding, he is as quiet as a virgin, no wonder the villagers have not noticed it." ”

Li Wan'er: "That's it, Taslo is better in water, let him deal with the monsters, we will be the 'bait', we will all scatter and run, try to help him divert the extra attacks." ”

Captain: "Just do as Li Wan'er said." ”

Jirek: "I'll count to three, and you'll start running, one, two, three!" ”

Taslo plunged headlong into the water.

With everyone's efforts, these bugs were successfully lured, and because of the diversion, it was much easier for everyone to kill.

......

Taslo held his breath and suddenly came to the monster's side, and just as he drew his sword to kill it, the monster opened its bloody mouth and sucked him in at once.

The monster's stomach was filled with the smell of rot, and Taslo took off his clothes in a panic because he accidentally got a little gastric juice and his clothes began to corrode.

The corpses and bones inside had piled up into a mountain.

"You forced me!"

Taslo recited the incantation, and the 'continuous sword' instantly dispersed into pieces of different shapes, and then he made a move, each piece of fragments flew in the monster's stomach according to a different trajectory, and as soon as he collected it, the wall of the monster's stomach continued to drown blood, and then raised the handle of the sword, stabbing upward, and with the death of the monster, the insects disappeared in an instant.

The village chief saw the mist over the village slowly disappearing, and he knew that the Zhiyong Regiment had succeeded, and led everyone on the way back to the village.

......

This move is a new invention by Taslo, because the first use has not been fully mastered, the move is too physical and magical, and the whole person is surfaced.

"Hey, wake up!"

Li Wan'er shook his head and called out loudly.

"I'm a little tired and want to rest for a while." Taslo finished and fell asleep again.

With a slight wave of his right hand, a light surrounded Taslow: "Don't worry, Wan'er, he's fine, I'm here." ”

Later, after some investigation by everyone, I finally understood the strangeness.

Whenever an insect eats its prey, it secretes a substance that enters the soil and directly benefits the plant.

The monsters are constantly collecting energy through these small bugs, because their bodies are very weak, and they only dare to come out of the river to catch their prey in the dead of night.

As for why the monsters chose this village, it is because Hejia Village is also a well-known livestock breeding village, and it is located in the lower reaches of the river, and the river is calm, which is suitable for the monsters to inhabit.

......

The entrance of the village is crowded: "On behalf of the people of the village, I thank you!" ”

The captain replied: "The village chief doesn't have to be polite, this is what we should do, let's go back quickly." ”

......

On the way back, the system sounded: Congratulations to the Zhiyong Group for completing the task excellently, and three stars are hereby awarded for the high efficiency and high quality (only one day was spent in three days).

Here is another piece of news: The Hejiacun mission has received five stars of praise, and 888 gold coins are hereby rewarded.

......

Note: When the number of stars reaches a certain level, the level of the Wisdom Warrior will be upgraded, and if you get a five-star praise, you will be rewarded with additional gold, and the rest of the star ratings will not be rewarded.
