For a one-star hunter who has participated in the Challenge Festival seven times, everything about the competition is already familiar to him. In the eyes of the rookies who participated in the challenge festival for the first time, this game is nothing more than following the team to accept the commission, trying to ensure the success rate of each mission, and at the same time seizing every unexpected event and extra opportunity, and sparing no effort to express themselves. Throughout the history of the Challenge Festival, as long as a one-star hunter can have a commission achievement rate of more than 90%, and at the same time is lucky enough to participate in one or two high-level hunters' commissions, and have a commendable performance, then it is a sure thing that he will win the top ten in the group. Orson may be a weak player on the hunter's path, but with years of experience in the challenge festival and a deep understanding of the game, it is not difficult for him to achieve these conditions.
But that's not enough, if he wants to be safe in the race, he can't bet on luck in the schedule, he must take the initiative to reach out to those commissions with high payouts, and try to get a piece of the pie in order to close the score gap with the younger, luckier rookies. As we all know, there is only one of the most rewarding commissions in the entire challenge festival. Therefore, after the initial mission was completed, Orson broke away from the team almost immediately, abandoning all logistical supplies, and shuttling alone among the major outposts, in order to be able to piece together the clues of the core commission.
"Why us?" After hearing Eamon's whispers, the scarlet-clothed young man couldn't help but wonder that the fat man in front of him was just a poor worm with a pathological pursuit of the dragonman's handmade equipment, and it was not worth his vigilance. At this moment, the equipment on the royal descendant's body, from the hunting suit to the weapon, was from the hands of the dragon craftsman master, which was no different from the highest award provided by the hunter guild, and this was only one of the many guarantees provided by his family for his travel safety.
With different identities and statuses, some people's lifelong pursuits are nothing more than jokes in the eyes of others.
"I recognize your armor, Your Highness." Orson bowed deeply, and the stocky hunter made this movement on his knees, almost choking his cheeks, "I mean...... Although I didn't recognize your identity at the first time, I will never be wrong with the full set of dragon man skills. At the mention of the Dragonman equipment, he became excited, and raised his head to look directly at the prince, eager to take off the armor on the spot. The fat man forcibly restrained the greed in his eyes, so as not to arouse the prince's disgust and vigilance.
"You are the future leader of the kingdom, and a complete set of dragonman handmade armor is indeed a lifelong goal for me, but for you, it may only take a slight opening of the golden mouth to obtain." Ao Senhan smiled, "A character like you will not be easily attracted by the rewards of hunting sacrifices, so I conclude that as long as I follow you, there will definitely be some additional gains." β
"Oh?" The prince became interested and wanted to lean down, but Emonon behind him grabbed the back of the placket without a trace, so he had to maintain a standing posture with some embarrassment, "What else do you know?" β
"I know that your purpose must be a core commission, and only the core commission will be of interest to the royal family in the entire challenge festival." Orson smiled slyly, "And I'm afraid Your Highness's purpose is contrary to the intentions of the Hunters' Guild, right?" β
"Bold! Stirring up a relationship between the royal family and the hunters' union without any evidence, don't you want to live? An accompanying hunter rebuked.
"Come on...... Seeing that the leader of the royal team was not hostile to him, the one-star hunter became fearless, "I have participated in the hunting festival seven times, and each time the challenge festival has a different competition location and core commission, but they have one thing in common, Your Highness might as well guess what it is?" β
"What is it?" Although the royal descendant has been influenced by the royal atmosphere, after all, he is still a teenager and always has an unconcealable desire to learn about unknown things.
"That's it...... Their so-called 'core commission' has never been just a simple 'core commission', Your Highness. Orson waved his hand away from the two hunters who were holding him, but stood up without permission, "Territorial disputes, power struggles within the Hunters' Guild, conflicts between the royal family and the union, personal feuds between high-ranking hunters and even legendary hunters...... Challenge festivals are the best way to create and solve them. No matter how cruel the power struggle, no matter how ugly the secrecy of the world, it will be whitewashed here as a 'symbol of the unity of all elite hunters in the northern region', 'proof that the glory of the hunters shines again'. A scramble for the output of ruins is nothing more than a regular show in the dark history of hunting festivals. β
"It sounds like you're talking about the same tone as those cynical old fellows in the Wang Li's scrivener team." The prince folded his hands gracefully.
"None ......of this has anything to do with me," the fat man grinned, "I don't care what the challenge festival is like, I don't care what the ruins mean to the royal family and the hunters' union, or what conflicts and deals you have. I'm just an inconsequential one-star hunter, a humble loser who just wants to come out on top at even one festival. He knelt down again, "Your Highness, I can obey any of your orders and keep all the secrets you want me to keep, I have no interest in anything that comes out of the ruins, I just ask you to take me in for the rest of your actions." β
"What makes you conclude that our purpose is 'ruins' or 'treasures'?" The prince did not respond to Orson's request, but asked in a raised voice.
"Commissioned arrangement by the Hunters' Guild, Your Highness." The fat man's face was happy, and the work on his lips became even harder, "You know that I have been studying hunting sacrifices for half my life, and every commissioned report I can find is firmly imprinted in my mind. The Hunters have a well-established strategy for all types of large commissions......" He drew a long line on the ground, pointing to one end of the line, "This side is the location of the base camp, and on the other side is the treacherous inner marsh. In my observations, a total of twenty-five outposts were all located near this line. All the exploration teams are generally oriented towards the inner marsh, which is theoretically the most efficient arrangement that can only be shown in commissioned content such as searching for ruins. β
"Do you have information on every outpost?" Eamon asked quietly.
"The commissioned information of the camp is not confidential, as long as I give those trainees who are not familiar with the world a little sweetness, someone will naturally help me keep an eye on the records." Orson said nonchalantly, but the corners of his mouth quietly raised, "I have every commission and completion of most of the camp, as well as the details of the team's personnel transfers - for someone who wants to know the secrets of the core commission, this level is just the basics. β
"Well, give it to us." Emon said undoubtedly, "We have a Wang Li hunter who specializes in intelligence to deal with it, and we don't need a one-star hunter to dictate here." The Lord will give you some Contest Points as a reward and then ...... . β
"I can......'t do it," Orson said with trepidation, "and it's hard to find pen and paper at the challenge, and I've got every message in my head." β
"Humph! Peeping at His Royal Highness the Prince, obstructing the actions of the royal family, and not executing you on the spot is already a great mercy! Emmon's eyebrows were raised, and the powerful momentum belonging to the soldiers surged out, "What else do you want?" Why don't we leave? β
"Your Highness!" The fat man knew that he had reached a critical moment, and he suddenly wept bitterly, and his five bodies pressed tightly to the ground, "Bet on every defeat I've tasted in this damn game, and there is no lie in my mouth." Please leave me ...... I can find your way and die in your place, and if you feel uncomfortable, you can execute me at any time......" He said as he rubbed his way to the prince's feet, tears and mud mixed together, causing the young man in the scarlet coat to take two steps back in disgust.
"All right...... "Okay," said the boy after all, "but stay away from me." β
"Lordβ" The two-star hunter gestured with his eyes.
"Eamon...... I know. The royal descendant pointed to the trembling Orson on the ground with his toes, "What's the harm to us if we just take an ant and let him chase after his bread crumbs?" β
