Chapter 86: Hunting Mission, Accepted

House Quests, paid commissions posted on the Bulletin Board or Info Board (Quest Bar) of the Red Academy of Elemental Magic. The purpose of the college's mission is to provide a reasonable source of income for students with financial difficulties, so the task is not difficult at first. Because there are no status restrictions, wealthy students see it as a challenge to take on more difficult tasks, resulting in fewer and fewer college tasks. Since then, the leaders of the academy have revised the task system and set up a house of affairs outside the academy, accepting commissions not only from within the academy but also from the outside world.

Requests for entrustment are not rejected by those who come. Among the leaders of the academy are teachers who are specifically responsible for the tasks of the academy, and there are also teachers who assist in the release of tasks, and Liang Kairong is one of them. According to the task system of the college, the relevant personnel will screen the tasks, dismiss some tasks - if they are not vexatious and extremely difficult tasks, they will be performed by teachers - the remaining tasks will be added with recommended classes and number requirements, and most of them will have warm reminders to help students better complete the tasks.

Different college tasks have different requirements, some of which are explicitly ordered to determine the rank and number of people, and those who do not meet the conditions are forbidden to accept the task. There is a slight difference from the task mechanism in some games, where there is no hierarchy, that is, the task that should be S-level does not indicate the difficulty of the task, only the class and number of people.

Generally speaking, the higher the difficulty of the task, the higher the reward. Of course, there are accidents, but there are still people who don't care about the high difficulty of the reward, and they are also a few masters who pursue the limit.

On the other hand, sometimes low-difficulty tasks can be completed to get a good reward, but this situation is similar to the chance of fighting monsters and picking up god-level equipment. Teachers who select tasks are attentive and will try to maintain fairness as much as possible. That being said, since this is the case, there is also a corresponding task. According to Park Ji-woo, this happens almost when things are paid in kind.

"One of the seniors who graduated last year was a golden mage who had been snubbed on the taskbar for weeks. I remember that the task was about a certain grandmother who was sick and in her twilight, and wanted a child to spend her last days with. At that time, when they learned that the client had to help the grandmother with the funeral, more than 90% of the students in the academy laughed and talked about the golden magician asking for his own hardships.

"It took the senior more than a month to complete the task, and all he got was paid for a rusty old sword. This made a joke in the academy until a teacher identified the old sword as a magic amplifier that our academy's founder, Mr. Red Williams, had created when he was younger.

"The original owner of the old sword was the ancestor of the old grandmother, and it was a sword that recognized the owner. Don't laugh, the magic tools created by the founder of the academy are naturally extraordinary. After being passed down from generation to generation, the old sword was passed into the hands of the old grandmother, and she was recognized as the master. Then the grandmother transferred the ownership of the old sword to him in gratitude for the careful care of the senior, and the owner of the old sword is now the senior who controls the golden magic.

"By the way, the name of that magic device is the Sword of Kalan, and it has the power to instantly increase the magic power and release the light blade. However, the obvious side effect is that it takes a long time for its magic to activate. After all, it's a mana amplifier, and its original role is to support rather than attack.

"You can find knowledge about the Sword of Kahlan in the Magic Equipment Commentary (New Edition). ”

I admire Park Ji-woo's knowledge, but he humbly says that he only understands something.

After breakfast, I had never systematically studied the knowledge of elemental magic, magicians, magical creatures, and magic tools in the wizarding world, and I planned to go to the library, which I rarely went to in the original world, and by the way, I secretly checked the soul tools of other students. I heard that I was going to the library of the Academy of Magic because I loved learning, and although Charlie and Josh were reluctant, they agreed to go with us either in high spirits or in their own hands, under the words of Kojiro and Alex that "acquiring knowledge is also a way to increase strength" and "Hey, you don't hate learning, do you?"

At the same moment as we opened the door, a panicked Ma Chao rushed in. Everyone reacted quickly and immediately dodged, but Josh turned his head and muttered that he didn't notice that Ma Chao collided with him.

Ma Chao, who got up, ignored the dizzy Josh on the ground and looked around and found us, sat on Josh and showed us the paper in his hand, and said loudly: "Reward for the task, the reward is 1,000 yuan!"

"Congratulations. "Other than that, I can't think of anything else to reply to Ma Chao.

"A thousand yuan!" Ma Chao's eyes were bright.

"Uh, come on. "I clenched my fists to cheer Ma Chao on.

"A thousand yuan, aren't you excited?" Ma Chao was a little anxious.

I'm sorry, I don't know the price of the wizarding world, and I don't know why a thousand yuan has the meaning of having to sacrifice his life for Ma Chao.

"It says you have to gather more than ten magicians to accept this task...... "Kojiro stepped forward.

That is, at least ten, one person gets a hundred dollars. Since the reward is so small, why take on the task?" I persuaded Ma Chao to give up.

"It's not about the Sok coins, it's about the items mentioned in the reward!" Ma shouted.

Park Ji-woo took the notice from Ma Chao's hand and read out the content of the task: "Recommended: level two or above; number of people must be more than ten." Team Mission: Destroy the Evil Star Six Silent Puppeteers of the Strange Stone Forest and rescue the surviving victims who have been captured by them. Client: Villagers of Moya Village. Description: Two weeks ago, a Silent Puppeteer appeared in the Stone Forest next to Moya Village. At first, it lived deep in the forest and did nothing. A week ago, villagers and travelers went missing in Moya village. Five days ago, it was confirmed that the Silent Puppeteers had taken the innocent captive. Due to the fact that the Star Six Silent Puppeteers often live in shadowy places, their appearance in the Strange Stone Forest is an anomaly. Now, the head of Moya Village and all the villagers have asked the academy magicians to destroy the evil Silent Puppets and rescue the survivors in the Strange Stone Forest. Reward: 1,000 Sok Coins, as well as Moya Village Treasure, medium magic equipment Moissanite Gem. Warning: Silent puppeteers do not actively attack humans, but the Silent Puppeteers in the Stone Forest do the opposite, so be careful. Note: The Silent Puppeteer's weakness is not Fire and Light - it will pause for a long time after launching its special move, so please try your best to dodge the special move and then take the opportunity to destroy the enemy in one fell swoop. Task time limit: within eight hours after the task is released - when the time limit is reached, the task will be regarded as a failure, and the teacher will go forward to complete the task. ”

"It's long. I just sighed, and everyone looked at me together, and I was embarrassed.

Josh groaned, and Ma Chao finally noticed that there was a living person underneath. After apologizing casually without remorse, Ma Chao tried to grab my shoulder, but I avoided it. I don't know whether to say witty or cunning, Ma Chao grabbed Xiao Hui's shoulder and said solemnly: "Hui, we took this task." ”

"Why do you take it?" I thought Xiao Hui was reluctant, so I replied for Xiao Hui, "The other party is a magical creature of star six, and according to the mission information, it has already killed at least one person." If you don't say it well, those who respond to the enemy will inevitably die. ”

"But it's a great reward. "Ma Chao is going to be hard.

"Isn't it just a thousand dollars of sok coins and a medium magic device? I'll give you a thousand dollars for a few lives, it's worth it. As for that magic tool called Mo What Jewel, can't you just look for it again?"

"Jiahe, what you said is not right. "I was amazed by what Kojiro said.

"Is there something more important than life?"

"That's not the question," Park Ji-woo replied to me, pointing to the words "Moissanite" on the notice, "There is a description of Moissanite in the "Magic Equipment Commentary". In terms of effect alone, both the Moissanite and the Sword of Karan that I told you about are both mana amplifiers. Although it is not as famous as the Sword of Karan as a high-level magic device, and it does not have the sword of Karan as both an attack and a support combat function, the mere fact that it enhances the user's magic power is enough to make it a favorite magic tool for everyone. ”

"Mana amplifiers are all medium magic tools, and they will be favored by everyone?"

Park Ji-woo shook his head and said, "The Moissanite is one of the few combat auxiliary magic tools in the medium magic equipment that has the effect of boosting magic power. It's not unique among all the combat support tools of the Medium Equipment, but it's easy to pick up and can increase the power of the three elemental spells without side effects. Such a convenient magic tool is naturally a favorite object for everyone. ”

"And," Ma Chao said excitedly, "the magic equipment below the middle level obtained from the academy mission can be used directly as long as the existing person is registered with the soul device!"

"The promotion exam is approaching, and if you can get the Moissanite, it will definitely be of great use to the advancement. ”

Adam's words caused Charlie to blurt out, "I'm going to take on this task." ”

"I took this task off!" Ma Chao meant that he must be added to this task, and the best reward can also belong to him.

"There are only 1,000 yuan in sock coins, and there is only one moissanite gemstone. This task requires a team of more than 10 people to accept it, so who will be paid?" I seemed to be fanning the flames.

Seeing that everyone was silent, I smiled and said, "In this case, either we will give up this task or vote to decide who will belong to the object." ”

"The mission notices have been taken down, how can there be any reason to return them? There is also voting, you are from a dormitory, and you will secretly bully me, an outsider. ”

Ma Chao, do you still know that you are an outsider? Breaking into our dormitory at a gallop, talking to himself and asking us to form a team, but trying to swallow the best things for everyone, is really ...... Alas.

"Didn't you come to our dorm and ask us for help? "Alex is telling the truth.

"Isn't Ma Chao in Class 3 a miser?" the first words of the sober Josh silenced everyone.

"Anyway," Ma Chao patted Xiao Hui on the shoulder and said, "Hui, help me." Rest assured, I will protect you. ”

Ma Chao's eyes were serious, but his heart probably wanted Xiao Hui to be full.

Xiao Hui was in a dilemma, and after scanning everyone for a week, he fixed his eyes on my face.

"In this way, one thousand dollars and a moissanite can only be chosen, and if someone wants a moissanite, he has to give up the sock coin. "Worried that everyone would choose moissanites together," I added, "I don't want either moissanites or sock coins." Since this task is not easy, and there is still one person missing, including everyone present, I suggest that Yu Jingjing, who is a Level 5 student, be brought in, and beg her to accept this task with me as a referee. ”

"You don't want Sok coins and magic tools, what are you going to do with Yu Jingjing?" asked Ma Chao.

"Then I'll be the referee alone. Yu Jingjing is not a member of our dormitory, and having her join will increase the likelihood of completing the task, and it can also break the impasse that you and our dormitory will be out of balance when you team up alone. ”

"But ......"

"No more nonsense. You can't take on this task alone, and with limited time, you won't be able to find a companion who is willing to pay you equally and won't compete with you for the Moissanite. ”

Seeing that Ma Chao was out of confidence, I knew that it would be a matter of time before he agreed to my suggestion.

"Okay, but I have a request......"

"No demands, no arguments, so happily decided. Once the mission is complete, I will determine who owns the Moissanite based on their performance. If you accept what I am saying, you will not be able to object to the Moissanite after it has been handed over to me as a judge and I have come to a conclusion. ”

After thinking about it for a few seconds, everyone agreed.

Out of the dormitory, we divided into three ways: Xiao Hui and I went to the college's ATM to confirm my existing property, Ma Chao went back to his bedroom to get the magic equipment, and the rest went to find Yu Jingjing.

"You don't go to Yu Jingjing?" I asked Xiao Hui.

"Uh-huh......" Xiao Hui scratched his cheek.

On the way, we talked about Sok Coin. Xiao Hui said that one dollar of sok is equivalent to one yuan in our hometown, that is, the ratio of the currency of the magical world to the currency of our hometown is one. I thought that the prices in this world may not be the same as the prices in my original world, and even if the two are the same, the prices in the magical world and the prices in the ordinary world may not be the same. After Xiao Hui told me, I was surprised to learn that the price level of the two ordinary people was about the same.

"What can be bought for a hundred dollars in the wizarding world?magic equipment, as long as you reach level three, you can register and withdraw it in the academy. Because almost all of the magic tools stored in the academy are non-disposable, the borrower cannot damage the extracted magic equipment and must return it within a certain period of time, similar to the library's borrowing rules. The only magic tools that can be borrowed by the third level are low-level magic tools. As the mage ranks up, students can even borrow high-level magic equipment.

"Sealing talismans?, that's a cheap one-time low-grade magic tool for combat. A talisman is ten dollars...... Is the price okay? I don't feel much about that. Originally, the main goods sold in the magical world and the ordinary world were different......"

We came to the so-called self-service ATM. As I thought, this self-service machine is different from ordinary ATMs, there is neither a magnetic card insertion slot nor a passbook slot - in other words, this self-service machine is a bit similar to the number pick-up machine in a public office, except that the number is taken as a cash deposit and withdrawal place.

"Class one, water magician, Xiao Hui. "My old classmates are demonstrating to me, but why are you just talking and not operating? Could it be that this is voice-controlled?

A white rabbit appears on the electronic screen...... Is this the rabbit in the paradise of innocence?

"Xiaobai is at your service. ”

Hey, I remember that the rabbit seems to be called Bai......

"Xiaobai, my classmate wants to inquire about his personal funds. He doesn't have a soul device, please scan it for him. ”

"Received the order. The AI bowed to me and smiled, "Please name your class, spirit elemental type, and name." ”

"Good. Rank two, Yi Jiahe, that, fire elemental magician. ”

When I was worried about saying the wrong order and saying too many words, Xiaobai said, "Please put your face on the screen and raise your hands on the screen." ”

I did so, but I couldn't help but feel like a prisoner who had surrendered.

"Get too close, please don't put your face on my mouth. ”

"I'm sorry ......" Didn't you tell me to put my face on the screen?

After waiting for a while, the AI announced: "Confirm me." Since you have a third party next to you, would you like to use the hidden mode to see the status of your funds?"

"Hui is not an outsider, it's fine. ”

"For security reasons, it is recommended that you use the hidden mode to check your funds. ”

Xiao Hui smiled bitterly and said to me, "Yi Jiahe, do what it says." ”

"Well, use hidden mode. ”

"Understood. Your existing funding is as follows, please select a project. ”

I would like to ask: what is the number on the screen?

Looking at Xiao Hui, he smiled and said, "I see the situation of your property." ”

"Can't you see?"

"I can't see. ”

I looked back at the table on the electronic screen that was shrinking down next to the rabbit, shocked at the fact that I had half a million socks.

"Oh my God, 500,000 yuan, it's not enough to sell myself. ”

"What?"

"I mean, I have 500,000 sock coins......" I noticed something, and asked Xiao Hui, "Can't you hear the numbers I said?"

"In hidden mode, only you can see your property, and the words you say that are related to your property will be silenced, and I can't hear it. ”

This is no longer hidden, but a mode against the sky.

"Anyway, as long as you know what your money is going on. ”

"Wait a minute, Hui, I won't just be transformed by this artificial intelligence, will I?" no matter how I think about it, I feel like I was being done by the artificial intelligence without knowing it.

"It's just a function of the self-service machine's hidden mode, which allows your brain to receive visual information directly by displaying text on your retina, without harming your physical health. Right, Xiaobai?"

"Yes. ”

"What about silence?" I asked Xiao Hui.

"It's just to silence your voice. ”

Speechless.

"Dear Mr. Yi Jiahe, if you have no other operation, please give the exit command from the system. ”

I was angry and said to the AI, "Quit." ”

"Thank you for using and goodbye. ”

In fact, Xiaobai's voice is very good, it is a girl's voice. And it is so polite that it will bow to me when we meet and say goodbye, which makes me feel ashamed of being rude to it.

A blue butterfly flew in, which should be Park Ji-woo's.

Xiao Hui had a little life type magic equipment, the sound transmission butterfly disappeared, and a voice appeared: "Yu Jingjing has agreed to join, and the team of ten people will complete it." Please come to 3 out of 10 to accept the mission together. ”

Hurriedly returning to the dormitory, I couldn't help but say: "What about going to the library to study?"
