Today I have been busy all day, and finance is really the most headache job, 555 deals with money as a whole, but it is poor and clanging, which is really tragic
Ask for recommendations, ask for collections, ask for tickets
"Guys, hurry up, after today's things are done, we will have to do it tomorrow," as Lokas shouted, Chen Kai and his group slowly walked out of the tent. Where are the novels updated the fastest? Please look for Aishang Novel Network biquge.info although a toss before going to bed last night made several people feel weak before going to bed, but after waking up in the morning, the whole person is full of energy.
"There's no new work today, just finish mending the rest of yesterday, go back to the barracks at 7 o'clock tomorrow morning, don't be late," Lokas sat on the side of Chen Kai's work in the armor of a soldier captain, nibbling on a roast leg of lamb, but behind him, two high-ranking knight commanders were trying to fan him with a fan in one hand.
Looking at the ruffian-looking Lokas, Chen Kai had the urge to throw the hammer in his face. But seeing the two knight commanders behind him whose strength reached level 8 but fanned them, Chen Kai immediately turned his impulse into motivation to work.
"Smash you old ruffian, smash you old ruffian," Fei Yun struck the side foot of the weapon with a hammer as he thought in pieces, and then slowly sharpened the weapon with a whetstone to restore its original sharpness.
"Fat man, don't break it up there, hurry up and get a good rest after you finish your work" Lokas's ears were unusually sensitive, and he naturally heard the thin curse sound in Fei Yun's mouth, so a bone of roast lamb leg hit Fei Yun's head in an instant.
Glaring at Lokas sitting on the recliner with resentment, Fei Yun rubbed his head and continued to do the work of repairing weapons, but the broken thoughts in his mouth turned into curses in his heart. In this way, under the supervision of Lokas, Chen Kai and the others kept repairing those weapons and shields that they didn't know where they came from, but fortunately, these weapons and shields were only slightly rusty and bent, otherwise with Chen Kai's skills, they really couldn't repair them.
The remaining large pile of weapons had been repaired by Chen Kai and them for a whole day, and when the last spear was inserted into the weapon rack by Chen Kai, the scattered light sun in the game had slowly set from the west, and Lokas was biting a leg of mutton and sleeping on the chaise longue in a daze.
"I'm exhausted, but I'm done...... Uh, isn't it? Why is there still 30,000 years left to upgrade? Chen Kai pinched his sore shoulders and began to check his status, but he was stunned for a moment when he looked at the last three blank grids in the experience bar, because he was now 30,000 experience points away from level 39.
"Brother Kai, you have calculated it, I am ten thousand short" Fei Yun sighed as he looked at the long thirty grids, he estimated that this place belonged to him and was the farthest away from level 39.
Wang Xuewen patted Fei Yun's shoulder sympathetically, because even he, a mage with more strength, was only 5o tens of thousands away from level 39, so he was more sympathetic to this friend who had obviously done more than himself but had less experience than himself.
"Okay, let's go to the city to rest and have a good meal, we will go out on a mission tomorrow, but I don't know what the mission is this time? Fourth, have you heard anything? Chen Kai looked at Fei Yun, who was holding a brush and gently drawing turtles on Lokas's face, and shook his head, and the other party did not leave lightly until he finished drawing five big turtles.
"No, Kai, is your uncle a paladin? Why is there no reaction to being drawn like this by the fourth child? Su Xinghe looked at the turtles on Lokas's face and couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth a few times, and asked Chen Kai in the team channel.
"I think we'd better go outside first" Looking at Lokas Chen Kai, who was biting the leg of mutton and holding the wine bottle, he sighed, he didn't know what happened between Lokas and An Luo. But judging from the fact that An Luo barely mentioned Lokas, there must have been some conflict between the two, and the result of the conflict was that the former Moon Shadow Paladin became the current drunkard Paladin.
In the hotel far away from the military camp, Chen Kai and the others ordered a large table of delicious food, and by the way, they also ordered some water and fresh ingredients that could be stored near the backpack space. By the time the boss had brought all the dishes, the whole nightlife of Efila had begun as usual, and all the diners and drinkers talked about the mercenary guild rebellion and the curfew that had just ended.
Raising the aperitif in his hand, Chen Kai quickly cut off a piece of barbecue meat and stuffed it into his mouth after drinking it a little. Although Chen Kai was in good spirits under the effect of the rejuvenating elixir, it did not mean that he would not be hungry. After a long period of physical labor, Chen Kai was already hungry, so after drinking a little aperitif, Chen Kai couldn't wait to stuff something into his mouth.
"Boss, you haven't said why Locas is a paladin but can be painted as a turtle by the fourth child?" Wang Xuewen inserted a meat steak and asked Chen Kai, who was gobbling up, and the player's toughness at this time was reflected. They can stuff something into their mouths while chatting through the guò team channel, without choking on food at all.
"Because he's drunk" Chen Kai's answer was very concise, so concise that the beef that Su Xinghe and Xu Fei had just stuffed into their mouths instantly choked in the trachea, almost choking to death.
"Boss, you're not kind, how can you be so perfunctory?" Fei Yun ate a piece of grilled herring and said in the team channel, looking at the two friends who were trying to cough Fei Yun's eyes almost narrowed with laughter.
"Laughing at what? Even Bass's bastard doesn't know why he's the way he is, and it's even more impossible for me to know" Bath, who was far away in Adolic taking care of his wife, suddenly sneezed, which made Bass, who was busy in the kitchen in an apron, very strange. However, at Vera's call, Bus, who was determined to be a good gentleman, immediately picked up the soup he had made and ran to his room.
Xu Fei finally choked out the beef stuck in his throat, and just wanted to grab the juice on the table and pour it into his mouth, but the cup was slapped on the back before it reached his mouth. "This mage, do you want a fortune?"
"Poof" With a slap from the person behind him, all the juice that Xu Fei had just drunk into his mouth sprayed on the face of Fei Yun, who was eating grilled herring opposite, and the red watermelon juice poured Fei Yun's head.
"Ahem, who are you?" Xu Fei, who was choking on the juice again, angrily slapped others behind his back and shouted, and the person also knew that he had caused no trouble to the other party, so he arched his hand very apologetically.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry for the unevenness in the next bag, of course, because there are too many players who call this bag to inquire, so most people who know me like to call me Bao Fat," the chubby player standing behind Xu Fei arched his hand towards Chen Kai and said in a familiar tone.
"It's okay, but this old brother Bao, what's the matter with you patting on the shoulder?" Xu Fei wiped his mouth and turned to look at the chubby player and asked, as for Fei Yun, who had watermelon juice dripping on his head, he left it behind.
"That's right, I heard that there is a big mission to be carried out tomorrow, but due to the lack of manpower, there are a few mages, so I would like to ask if you want to make a fortune. But now it seems that I don't think you will look down on that money" When Xu Fei turned around, Bao Buping, who was standing behind Xu Fei, naturally saw that the robe Xu Fei was wearing was not an ordinary cloth robe, and players who could wear a robe with real additional spells would definitely not lack their own money.
"Can you tell us what our mission is?" Chen Kai raised the red wine in his hand and made a gesture of invitation to Bao Buping, who was standing behind Xu Fei, and at this time, Bao Buping realized that Chen Kai and the main staff of their team were not the mages he thought, but the knights with a huge weapon on their backs.
Looking at the huge giant sword behind Chen Kai, Bao Buping estimated Chen Kai's strength in his heart, and as a result, his current opponent's strength was at least one hundred points or more, and it was likely to be close to about 12o points. Especially when he saw the giant sword of another swordsman in the team, Bao Buping's judgment of Chen Kai's overall strength immediately improved by three grades.
After Bao Buping sat in his seat, he did not directly answer Chen Kai's question, but carefully looked at the people around him, and using the observation skills he had learned, Bao Buping could roughly estimate Chen Kai's overall strength. Under the effect of Bao Buping's own skills, Chen Kai and all of them had a faint ** light on them.
According to Bao Buping's own understanding, the gray ones are more than ten years below him, and the white ones are within ten levels. The green ones are players who are about the same level as him, the ones that are much higher than him but are still within level 10, and the red ones are players who are more than 10 levels higher.
When Bao Buping's gaze swept over Su Wan, he saw something that surprised him, the very handsome girl actually raised her head with a feeling, and glared at him fiercely with a golden light in her eyes.
"I'm sorry, although I would like to tell you and me to get information about the quest, but this big brother, you also know that the clues to a story quest are not so easy to find, especially in this game. A lot of times those aborigines will leave us players to start the plot on their own, and even when we don't know it, a very heavy dà plot is over. Bao Bu retracted his gaze heavily, and tried to speak in a milder tone to reduce the other party's bad feelings towards him.
"Are you saying you need to pay for information?" Chen Kai looked at the chubby player sitting opposite him with the cup in his hand at ease.
"Of course, if this friend really wants to calculate it like this, it can also be said to be an information fee, after all, the plot tasks are the kind of outdated ones." Bao Buping rubbed his hands, and at this time he saw a large portion of food brought by the innkeeper, and the spicy and sweet smell aroused the worms in his stomach, but what surprised him even more was the price of the food.
A thousand gold coins of spicy bear paws is not something that any player can afford to eat, but when he raised his head to look at the opposite side, a strange expression flashed on the face of the captain who was now opposite, as if he had never ordered such a dish.
"Can you tell me how many people you've found to participate in the mission now?" Chen Kai looked at the bear paw on the table strangely, and then raised the knife in his hand and began to taste the food he didn't order but sent it, but when he ate it, he felt like he was being calculated.
"There are already three hundred people, and each of them is a good player at level 35 or above" Bao Buping naturally did not say all the personnel, but just said the core combatants.
"Three hundred?" Chen Kai raised his head and looked at the player opposite, and then slowly lowered his head, in his opinion, the plot mission of three hundred people was not enough to see at all. Even if all the three hundred people are fourth-order players, it is just an ordinary scene at most, and Chen Kai, who has seen thousands of players fighting and even participated in system wars, has no interest in hundreds of people at all.
Of course, the most important thing for Chen Kai is the task of Lokas, after all, just for the task to pave the way, Chen Kai and they have all improved the three poles, this kind of practice in order to strengthen the player's combat effectiveness in the early stage of the task, Chen Kai has only seen it when he consulted the introduction of those tasks above the level of the mission. And almost all players who participate in B-rank missions are a doom and are all destroyed
Although Chen Kai was worried that he would be wiped out like those players who participated in B-level missions, he was unwilling to kill Chen Kai if he gave up this opportunity. Of course, if Chen Kai pulls his hand now, the experience of the three poles alone will be enough to satisfy many players, but Chen Kai knows that if he pulls his hand, he will not only lose his trust in others (aborigines), but also let himself get other unexpected punishments.
So after getting the help of Locas, Chen Kai has embarked on the road of having to participate in this mission, of course, he believes that he can definitely complete this mission. At least his luck has always been very good, and En's time in the Hundred Worm Forest is not counted.
Bao Buping slowly finished the most extravagant dinner in his gaming career, and exchanged the communicator number with Chen Kai to add him as a friend. It was only at this time that Bao Buping knew that Chen Kai was the former boss of the Hurricane Studio, and with a glow of admiration, Bao Buping arched his hand and left the hotel, preparing to go elsewhere to find his new teammates.
As for Chen Kai, after saying goodbye to Bao Buping, he immediately slapped the bill that had just arrived in front of the hotel owner's counter. "Boss, this account is not right, no matter how expensive that bear's paw is, it can't be as much as tens of thousands of gold coins, right? And what's the deal with these two bottles of wine? We've never seen this shark fin abalone before, so you can put it on my bill. ”
The chubby innkeeper didn't speak, but took out a large bag of bills, which included not only this inn but also other hotels and restaurants. Piles of IOUs and bills ranged from a few silver coins to hundreds of gold coins, and at the end of the bills were spell images and notes left by Lokas.
"The stinky man dares to draw a turtle on Lao Tzu's face, this pile of bills is your punishment, don't say that you don't have any money, I checked that you earned at least more than one million gold coins some time ago, this gold coin is simply meaningful, and remember to bring more water and food tomorrow, and gather early in the morning" Below the sticky note is Locas's signature, as well as his emblem.
Suddenly, everyone's eyes were fixed on Fei Yun who had painted a turtle on Lokas's face, and eleven murderous eyes directly shrank Fei Yun into the corner. Chen Kai sighed, took out his money bag and paid the huge bill of nearly 2o, and after Chen Kai paid the bill, the innkeeper happily stuffed Chen Kai with a large pile of IOUs from different taverns.
With this pile of IOUs, Chen Kai slowly walked towards the guest room of the inn, but when he just stepped on the stairs, the chubby innkeeper suddenly stuffed a space button into his hand, and at the same time stuffed a large plate of fruits and desserts.
After returning to the room, Chen Kai checked the surrounding situation with great care, and asked the four mages, Xu Fei and Wang Xuewen, to join forces to open the spell barrier that they were not familiar with. After consuming more than a dozen spell crystals and various precious materials, a simple spell barrier that could only last less than half an hour appeared in the room that Chen Kai and the others had rented.
This spell barrier, which needs to be maintained by four spellcasters, is the only relatively high-level spell barrier that Xu Fei and the others have mastered after studying the spell data brought out from Yadoge, and it can be said that it is also the only spell barrier that they can use to resist the attack of fifth-level spells at this stage.
This barrier can block the leakage of some of the spell breath and cancel out the movement inside a barrier. However, at the cost of four spellcasters and most of the magic of the two priests, Xu Fei had to keep their hands on the ground to keep the circle running in order to maintain this spell barrier.
Sitting in the spell barrier, Chen Kai opened the space button with his heart, the space button, as a kind of space equipment in the game, is often used to transport some very important items with its concealment and safety, and the space button in Chen Kai's hand obviously has something very important in it, but Chen Kai doesn't know who gave this space button.
After opening the space button, Chen Kai used his spirit to look into the space button, and all the items in the entire space button appeared in Chen Kai's mind. A piece of paper and a large box with a golden seal and locked with a magical sheen.
Looking at the huge locked box, Chen Kai knew that it was impossible for him to open the box, so he only took out the note, which only contained a few short words and a seal.
"Hide this space button and burn this piece of paper, don't ask anything about the box during the action, otherwise I won't be able to protect you, and remember to protect your own safety in the action, once there is danger, immediately flee and send the box to the Earth Temple in the imperial capital" The seal on the paper belongs to the one who knocked the seal on the IOU that Chen Kai just saw, and after reading those few words, Chen Kaixun burned the paper into a handful of white ashes with the holy fire.
With the paper disappearing, Chen Kai and Xu Fei added a new task to their taskbar - "Unknown Box". Looking at the huge box in the space button, Chen Kai had an urge to take the box out, but reason suppressed this impulse in an instant.
Chen Kai gestured to Bai Shasha with his eyes, letting her out of the state of maintaining the spell barrier. And after Bai Shasha left the position of maintaining the spell barrier, several other spellcasters immediately felt that the magic power drawn by the magic circle began to speed up.
When Bai Shasha walked to Chen Kai's side, Chen Kai took out a piece of gold from his backpack and asked Bai Shasha to use alchemy to smelt the solution, then opened his belt and pulled the strange divine emblem out of his belt. When the golden solution was formed in Bai Shasha's hands, Chen Kai immediately took out a crucible and put the Divine Emblem in the crucible, and the space button was placed on top of the Divine Emblem.
As the gold solution was poured into the cauldron and slowly cooled, a gold nugget wrapped in the emblem and the space button appeared in the crucible. Holding the gold nugget cooled with clean water, Chen Kaixun took out a dagger and carved it on the gold nugget, using his unskilled technique to carve one side of the gold nugget into a plane, and the other side into a belt buckle.
After lifting the spell enchantment, Xu Feixun carved a complete Dawn Temple emblem with a carving knife on the gold belt buckle, relying on the divine power similar to that of the Lord of Dawn to cover up the slight spatial fluctuations of the space button inside.
After doing this, Chen Kai reconnected the gold buckle from the belt to his waist, so that from the outside, it seemed that Chen Kai, as the Divine Grace Knight of the Dawn Temple, was wearing a belt with a sacred aura, and no one would suspect that there was something hidden in the belt. They'll only focus their gaze and detection targets on other spatial equipment, not a divine emblem with a divine aura.
