Chapter 44: Branch President

Lu Kaifeng lifted a cloth bag and opened it on the counter, revealing a large pile of items inside, including various items such as armor, weapons, potions, and props. On the other side, Ophelia took out the order and said to the waiter:

"We're here to deliver the mission, the goblins have been wiped out, and the hordes have been destroyed."

The waiter was the one who recommended them safely in the morning, and she recognized them when they came in, and she was impressed by themβ€”it could not be that she was impressed, one was the princess of the principality, and she had been told by her superiors when Ophelia had come to register more than half a year ago. She was still trembling and saluting her, but Ophelia waved her hand and motioned for her to keep it a secret. But now that the word had spread, the waiter glanced at the adventurers sitting in the rest area, and found that most of them were looking here, their eyes full of curiosity.

The other is a team of adventurers with elite combat power who has been subdued in an instant, a strong man with strong combat power. The scene in the morning is still vivid, and the magician who the union has invited to restore the hall has only been gone for a short time.

She quickly took the order and looked at the content of the commission symbolically, after all, the task that was only sent out in the morning, plus it was these two people, she remembered it very clearly, and she didn't need to confirm the task carefully. With that man's strength, it would be an absolute breeze to accomplish this task.

And these things...

Looking at the various items stacked on the counter, she already had the answer in her heart, but out of professionalism, she still asked, "Then what are these?" ”

"It should be a relic. The goblin tribes were already wiped out by the time we went, and we found them nearby. You should be able to confirm if you are an adventurer who took this mission. ”

Lu Kaifeng took over the words and said the prepared words. As a matter of caution, they did not intend to announce the temple, and blocked the cave as they left. Originally, Ophelia planned to use magic, although she was a fire magician, but it was just that her physique was more compatible with the fire element, and with her talent, it was still possible to use low-level and middle-level magic from other departments, but the consumption would be a little larger.

However, Lu Kaifeng stopped her, saying that it was more convenient for this kind of thing to come by herself, and after a few swords went down, the cave collapsed, and it was estimated that it would be difficult to clean up the cave passage without a little effort.

"In addition, we have brought back some things from the goblin tribe, which should be enough as proof materials." Lu Kaifeng added.

The union has a rule that after the mission is completed, it is necessary to bring back the iconic item as proof of completion of the commission. For example, destroying monsters is to bring back corpses or part of the body, such as ears and eyeballs; Tribal ones can be brought back to the tribal leader or tribal totem or the like; If there is a request for the commission, just do it. Other kinds of tasks also have other methods of proof, depending on the circumstances.

Hearing this, the waiter took a closer look into the hill and nodded when he found that there were indeed iconic items of the Goblin Tribe. Then he went into the inner room and took out the reward prepared in advance with a cowhide bag, handed it to Ophelia, and smiled: "Then, congratulations on completing the task, this is your reward." We will register and settle the points in the future. ”

"Well, okay, trouble." Ophelia nodded.

"That's what we're supposed to do. By the way," said the waiter, as if remembering something, "I wonder when you two will be free?" ”

"What's wrong?"

Lu Kaifeng raised his eyebrows, and Ophelia also looked puzzled.

"That's right, there are also derelictions of duty in the morning's affairs union, and the branch president wants to apologize to the two of them in person." The waiter said respectfully.

...

The afterglow of the setting sun gently stained the clouds on the horizon, leaving behind a charming sunset.

It was already evening, the people had finished their day's work, and the adventurers had returned to the city from the wilderness to go home to rest, or to relax their tense nerves with a drink or two with friends in the tavern.

It was also the time when Bennet should have gone home, but he didn't.

His weather-beaten face was angular, with the usual steadiness of his age, his body was tough, and his restrained aura was like a lurking tiger. The eyes that were originally as sharp as those of an eagle falcon were full of worry when they looked at the sunset outside the window.

The source of the concern was a report that had just been received, which was a detailed investigation of the movement of the monster in the Angles Mountains. According to the survey, Contesino is expected to face an onslaught of beast tides.

Conteseno is located at the southernmost point of the principality, a dozen kilometers further south of the Angles. This means that if there is a beast tide, Contesino is the first line against the beast tide. If it was just an ordinary beast tide, Benat would not be unable to let go, after all, every few years, this place would be hit by the beast tide, and every time it successfully resisted it.

But this time, it's hard to say, because the report says that this time the beast tide may encounter the beast king. That's an existence that only platinum-level adventurers can compete with, and in this city, there are no platinum-level adventurers, or forbidden spell-level magicians. The strongest strength is only Mithril, and the number is not much, which is completely insufficient to fight against the Beastmaster.

Putting down the report in his hand, Bennett's fingers tapped rhythmically on the table, as if he was thinking about something, and his brows squeezed into Sichuan characters when he thought about it.

Tuk Tuk –

Suddenly, a crisp knock interrupted Bennet's thoughts, and he looked at the door, his tone a little displeased: "What's the matter?" ”

"President Bennett, Black Flame is here." The waiter's respectful voice pierced through the wooden door and entered the office.

Hearing this, the dissatisfaction on Benat's face dissipated, and he looked a little surprised. He closed the report in his hand and set it aside, got up, walked over the shelf, and walked to the door. Instead of opening the door right away, he tidied up his clothes before putting his hands on the doorknob.

He is the branch president of the Adventurer's Guild, and it stands to reason that there is no need to have so much etiquette to meet adventurers, but Hei Yan is different, not to mention the mysterious black-clothed powerhouse, just because of the identity of Princess Ophelia, the daughter of the Grand Duke of Galea, he should go out to greet him.

Click-

The door opened, and the first thing I saw was the waiter at the door, followed by the Black Flame team behind him. After seeing Lu Kaifeng's black hair and black pupils, his eyes narrowed, but they quickly returned to normal.

The waiter bowed respectfully to Bennet when he saw him. Then he turned sideways and gave up his position. He saluted the two of them again and left.

"Come in, two of you."

Bennet made a "please" gesture and led the two to the couch by the window, motioning for them to sit down while he sat down on the couch on the side. As soon as the three of them sat down, the waiter who had just left returned, holding a plate with three steaming white porcelain teacups on it. Placing the teacup gently in front of everyone, the waiter bowed to the three of them and turned to leave, gently closing the door as he left.

"Let me introduce myself, I'm Benat Seidles Kaoririch, president of the Conteseno chapter of the Adventurers' Union, and I'm honored to meet both. It is more abrupt to take the liberty of inviting the two of you over, so please forgive me. ”

After saying this, Bennet glanced at Lu Kaifeng, and although he quickly took it back, he still noticed it.

Again? Didn't you come to me for compensation?

Lu Kaifeng muttered to himself, silently making up excuses in his heart, thinking about how to get past...
