Volume 1 What? This is the crossing? Chapter 9 What?
The city of Harrilon, the lord's house.
"Father, father!" Before entering the city lord's study, his son Zinsal shouted at the top of his voice.
"What are you arguing about? I don't know how reserved you are?" the city lord Libei also happened to come out of the study, holding a cup of tea in his hand. Liber, who had just finished his business, was about to take a break when Sinsar suddenly came back and disturbed him. "Aren't you coming back tomorrow?"
Sinsar was already out of breath when he ran all the way in, and he didn't say anything after seeing the tea in Liber's hand, and just grabbed the cup and drank it all.
"What's so urgent? Look at the way you sweat profusely. ”
Sinsar gasped again, and then said to Liber, "Demons...... The demons have appeared......"
"When you appear, you appear, what are you doing in such a hurry?"
"Father...... Call...... Do you know where the demons are?"
"Where else could it be? ”
"No!" Sinsar grabbed Liber's arm and said excitedly, "The demon has appeared near the village of Maruta!"
Liberty slapped Sinsar's hand away and said calmly, "Such a small thing scared you like this?"
Sinsar looked at Liber with round eyes, he didn't expect his father to be so calm. That's a demon race, a demon race that should have been on another continent appeared in his territory, and Liber can still maintain such a mentality.
"Where did you hear about this?"
"On the way back to the city, I met a group of thieves, and their companions were killed by the demons. ”
"Thief ......" Liber walked back to the study and made another cup of tea, "Didn't they say how many demons there were?"
"No, but remember they said that more than twenty of their companions were killed, which is estimated to be quite a lot. ”
Liberty tapped his index finger lightly on the teacup, and after thinking for a while, the lord of the city said to his son, "Do you think we should send an army?"
"Isn't that a matter of course? The demons have already encroached on our territory, and we can't sit idly by. ”
"So, how much should I send?"
I don't know the number of enemies, but how many troops and horses to send? If the number of enemies is too large, there will be fewer people who will go, and there will be no return. But if all the troops were sent out, they would still not be able to defeat the other side? Moreover, if there were no soldiers defending the city of Harlelon, and the land god of Harleon was not there at this time, it would be even more dangerous.
Sinsar was also aware of this, and this time he was silent.
"I'll leave this matter to you. ”
"Huh, leave it to me?"
"yes, it's a good test of your abilities. Otherwise, how will you let me hand over Harleillon to you in the future?"
Sinsar knew very well that his father simply didn't want to deal with this troublesome matter, so he pushed it to himself.
However, Sinsar is not a vegetarian either, and after a short thought, he asks Liber, "Can I handle this in the name of the city lord?"
"Of course. Sinsar said, picking up the seal on the table and handing it to Liber, "Just use it." ”
"What about the money?"
"I'll provide you with the funds. ”
"Okay, perfect finish guaranteed. ”
Sinsar put away the seal and left without saying a word.
"By the way, what are you going to do about it?"
"I'll go to the Adventurer's Guild to send a bounty mission, and you provide the funding anyway. ”
......
The next day, the Adventurers' Guild, the Harleillon Branch.
Hayumi sat in the corner with his staff in his hand, and in front of him was a group of adventurers who wanted to invite him to join the party.
Hayumi is the former spirit boy of Lister Village, who turned fourteen last year, and left the village to start the adventurous life he has always longed for, after handing over his job to the next spirit girl.
Hayumi, who left the village, registered with the Adventurer's Guild as a novice adventurer, thinking that the newcomer himself would be treated badly and encounter difficult tasks to temper himself. But Hayumi was wrong, he didn't know that as a spirit man, his identity was so popular. Each time he is teamed up with powerful companions, all desperately trying to protect him, and he can sit back and rest with just a few words and wait for the others to defeat his target.
Hayumi didn't like this kind of life. He is a self-motivated teenager who wants to hone himself in life-threatening tasks so that he can grow stronger in the face of adversity.
"Now, Hayumi, we have a crusade against the swamp beeppers, and the pay is high, so let's team up with us again. ”
"Go away, let Hayumi go to a hellish place like a swamp, you can figure it out too? Hayumi, come with us, this time we are going to the northern snow forest, where the scenery is beautiful. ”
"Do you want to freeze Hayumi?"
"That's better than taking Hayumi to a dirty place like the swamp. ”
As the crowd argued, Hayumi sipping the hot milk from the table and keeping his eyes fixed on the bulletin board announcing the mission. Hopefully, someone will post a difficult mission announcement in the next second.
At this moment, the guild staff walked straight to the bulletin board with a mission announcement and pasted it in the middle of the bulletin board with a "snap".
One two three four...... Seven, seven stars?Hayumi stood up sharply, pushed away the adventurers who were surrounding him, and rushed to the front of the bulletin board.
Hayumi rubbed his eyes, once again making sure he was seeing something wrong.
"Defeat the demon army that appeared in the north of Maruta Village, the difficulty of the mission is seven stars!Bonus of 100,000 gold coins!" Hayumi felt that his heart was beating wildly, and this opportunity must not be missed.
Without saying a word, Hayumi took off the mission, then turned around and shouted at all the adventurers in the guild, "This seven-star mission!
Hearing that it was Hayumi's voice, everyone looked at this side with heart. But after seeing that the difficulty of the task was seven stars, there was hesitation.
The seven-star mission is a difficult task that requires at least fifty people to complete, and even if Hayumi is here, it is estimated that it will take thirty people to do it. The bonus of 100,000 yuan is distributed to thirty people, and in the end, it is not much, so it is better to do two four-star tasks.
But that was Hayumi, Harleon's only spirit man. This was the first time he had taken the initiative to accept a task, and it was clear that he was eager to complete it. If you can take this opportunity to have a good relationship with him, it will not be a problem to get all the tasks in the future.
Weighing the pros and cons, in the end, the long-term benefits are their choice.
In this way, nearly two hundred people in the entire guild joined Hayumi's team, not including the adventurers who were not in the guild at this time. The guys who joined the team then went to pull their friends in, and Hayumi's team grew to three hundred people in just one hour. It can be said that it is the first time in the history of the entire continent that so many adventurers have teamed up to do a seven-star mission.
......
Inside one of Harrilon's taverns.
"It's really annoying, we went to the Spirit Society early in the morning to look for it, and the land god was not there. Ilona wanted to slap the table, but Zeette stopped her for fear that she would slap the table and break it.
Kotohime breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately the land god was not there, otherwise it would inevitably be in trouble again.
"Well, don't be angry. Come, relax with a piece of beef. Zete pushed the beef in front of her in front of her, and Ilona didn't refuse to eat it.
This is after Zete forced Ilona to eat a little food last night, Ilona found that she actually had a sense of taste, and the food she ate was directly digested into energy in her body. Although that little energy is very small to me, the taste is really good. So Ilona began to eat.
"This beef!"
"What's wrong? Is it poisonous?" Zete saw Ilona's sudden reaction, and thought there was something wrong with the beef, after all, he had just eaten two pieces.
Elona pointed to the holster of the gun around Zete's waist and said, "This beef is the meat of the cow that made you the hides yesterday." ”
"How do you know?"
"After eating it, I analyzed its DNA. ”
Zete looked at the plate of sauced beef, folded his hands and apologized to it, "I'm sorry for doing such an excessive thing to you." But your meat is really delicious, and your skin is really good......"
Just as Zet apologized to the beef, the tavern door was pushed open, and an adventurer shouted inside, "Assemble at the guild!
"What? Hayumi's team!"
"Hurry up, hurry up, or it's too late!"
"I haven't finished eating yet!"
"Is it important to eat or Hayumi!"
Most of the guests in the tavern were adventurers, and seeing this group of people rushing out as if their house was on fire, Ilona didn't know which screw was broken, and she immediately grabbed Zet and Jean Ji on her back and chased after her.
"Hey, hey, Elona, what are you doing?"
"I don't know, but it seems to be funny. ”
"Then you wait for me to finish eating the beef, otherwise it's too rude to that cow, right? It has contributed so much to me, but I can't finish it, it's very uncultivated. ”
Illona thought that Zet's words made sense, so she carried the two of them back to the tavern, and rushed out with the adventurers with the plate of beef.
After having the beef, Zet didn't care what Ilona wanted to do, let her carry herself like a chicken, and chew the delicious sauced beef with satisfaction.
And Kotohime has already given up resistance, she knows that she has no autonomy on her journey, basically depending on how the two of them feel. Since you can't resist, it's better to enjoy it.
Elona carried the two of them like this, still carrying the huge luggage on her back. Follow a group of people to the Adventurer's Guild.
