501 Declined

Looking at Hall's determined eyes, Sawyer understood that if he didn't prove himself today, this fanatical uncle would not let him go.

Reluctantly took the bow and arrows, Sawa first pulled the bowstring and tried it, and then shot two arrows not far away, then nodded and asked, "How to prove it?" ”

In fact, looking at Sawyer's series of actions, Hall's disdain and suspicion of Sawyer in his heart have disappeared a little, and his tone has become a little softer, pointing to a fruit tree not far away: "Just shoot the yellow honey fruit at the bottom." ”

The fruit tree was only more than twenty meters away from Sawyer, but the yellow honey fruit at the bottom was not yet ripe, that is, the size of a baby's fist, and it was still swaying irregularly in the wind.

"Oh."

Sawyer didn't care, nodded, caught an arrow between his fingers, didn't aim, raised his bow and shot, an arrow suddenly pierced the air, and nailed to the fruit tree with a thud, and on the shaft of the arrow, an unripe yellow honey fruit was gradually sliding down.

"Yo, Sawyer, you're good at archery! A fight with Uncle Hall! ”

Gregory let out a strange scream, and immediately woke up Hall next to him.

Listening to Gregory's words, Hall's face was hot, although he wanted to make things difficult for Sawyer, but he also knew that if he let him shoot by himself, although he could also shoot the yellow honey fruit, but at least it would take a second or two to judge the wind and predict the direction of the yellow honey fruit, and he would definitely not be able to do it as easily as Sawyer.

"I'm not very proficient, but I think it's still okay, right?"

Sawyer smiled at Ggregory and asked Hale with a humble face, which instantly made Hale blush, and after a few snorts, he turned around and left without even taking the bow and arrow.

"Huh? Don't go, seniors! Could it be that my archery skills are not up to par? ”

Sawyer raised his eyebrows and shouted a few more times, but Hall walked faster, and Sawyer snorted proudly, Trouble me?

Now that the good girl Greta has become his "sister", he naturally has to work hard to be a good man who never holds grudges, well, start from now on!

"Hey, Sawyer, Uncle Hall is like this, don't take it to heart, although Uncle is a little old-fashioned, but he is still very good."

Gregory came over to persuade him, and Sawyer smiled and waved his hand to reassure him: "How can it be, it's just a trivial matter, and I'm not a person who holds grudges." ”

"Whew-"

Corey next to him couldn't help laughing, and hurriedly covered his mouth, as if he had done something wrong, and the other people also had similar expressions, that's right, you don't hold grudges, and the person who holds grudges now should be Uncle Hall, right?

However, in addition to Corey, the spellcaster, several other people have been "tested" by Hall, and now they are also happy when they see Hall deflated, and their senses for Sawyer have instantly improved a lot, allowing Sawyer to smoothly integrate into this small group.

Soon after, Hall returned, carrying another short bow on his back, but it was the same old bow that Gregory had spoken of.

Now Sawyer was a little embarrassed, thinking that he had made Hall angry and left, but he didn't expect that people would go home to get equipment for themselves.

"This ......"

Sawyer wanted to return the bow and arrow in his hand to Hall, but was refused: "Your archery skills are much stronger than mine, and you can use this to exert stronger strength, and it is enough for me to have this one." ”

"It's fine."

Sawyer looked at Hall's serious appearance, and he didn't shirk it, it's a big deal to wait for the gray fog to take care of these "teammates" more.

However, receiving the mission does not mean that you can leave the ring city immediately and enter the gray fog to complete the task.

Fresh food and water and other daily necessities are naturally indispensable, and the fire used by the mercenary team also needs to be recharged, in addition to this, some special medicines need to be purchased.

Following Gregory around the mercenary market in the Seven Rings gave Sawyer a sense of eye-opening that there were many things he had never seen before, such as various spellcasting materials for spellcasters, powders and potions that dispel or attract a specific beast, and some things that could not be guessed for by their appearance.

Especially when Corey bought spellcasting materials, if he didn't have a single black coin in his hand, Sawyer might have bought some.

This is also a reason to limit the number of spellcasters, after all, except for the healers in the ring city, all other spellcasters need to release spells in the gray mist, but the furious energy in the gray fog will affect the construction of spell models, so after years of research, the casting method of most spells has been transformed into a material-based casting method.

However, although this method of spell casting is a bit more complicated, and in addition to some money-burning, it has a blessing effect on the spell cast, and the higher the compatibility between the casting material and the spell, the greater the power of the spell.

Of course, for an ordinary spellcaster like Corey, spells are cast with the lowest level of generic materials, and almost all spells can be cast through this material, but this is ...... power Anyway, according to Corey, the spells he cast with the casting materials in the gray mist were even a few points weaker than those cast with his bare hands.

"It's good to be able to release spells, after all, such a material is only three black coins."

Gregory wrapped his arms around Corey's shoulders and explained with a smile, Cory also nodded with a red face, after all, they are just a low-level mercenary team, and after a mission, in addition to all kinds of consumption, the only thing that can be earned in the end is only a few dozen black coins.

"In that case, if I take ten black coins in the end, will I take too much?"

Hearing Gregory flip through the ledger with him, Sawyer was also a little embarrassed, and swallowed the idea of advance payment back into his stomach by the way.

However, Gregory didn't care, but explained to Sawyer seriously: "This mission is expected to earn more than sixty black coins, at least no less than fifty black coins, and you are equivalent to a nine-ring master, so you should take ten." ”

"It would be nice if I could join our mercenary squad."

Corey also said rarely, but the shy boy's voice was so small that if it weren't for Sawyer's outstanding hearing, he might have taken this sentence as a gust of wind.

"Aha, this ......" Sawyer wanted to refuse directly, but looking at the expectant eyes of Gregory and Corey, he finally changed his words: "Let's talk about it later, if possible, we will work together." ”
