A luxury hotel in Grenoble's central business district, with a gilded sign that glows in the night light, with the words "Grand Hotel of the Crystal Kings" written in ornate lettering, and two brightly dressed porters standing at the front of the hotel, one on the left and one on the right. An emaciated man dressed in black walked briskly through the door and into the restaurant.

In a luxuriously decorated room, Henry beckoned the maid who had beaten his leg to stand down, and then said to the man in black who had just returned from outside to inquire about the news, "Have you found out clearly?" What's the origin of that kid? “

The man in black said in a deep voice: "The report of the spies under my command has been checked very clearly, the black-haired boy and the red-haired kid I met in the store in the afternoon finally returned to a place called the "Iron Shield Mercenary Group", through our relationship in the mercenary group, I inserted this mercenary group is a small group that has just been promoted to level 2, and there is no fame and no masters. The regiment leader's name is Occam, and his strength is a level 4 shield warrior......"

"Alright, alright." Henry impatiently stopped the man in black from continuing to introduce, "I only care about where that beautiful short sword is, what a waste of such a beautiful sword in the hands of such a lowly little mercenary, not even a scabbard, such a sword should be well preserved in a jeweled scabbard and hung on my waist." It's nothing, but it's disgusting that two people like that turned me down. Since they won't sell it and we know the whereabouts of the sword, go to the Thieves' Guild and post a quest, and I'll offer a reward of 1,000 gold for the sword. ”

"Yes, young master, I'll do it immediately."

After Yi Hui and Jinli returned to the group, they never took this incident to heart in the weapon shop, and chatted casually with Scott before going back to their rooms to rest.

Early the next morning, Yi Hui began his thief practice again, still being chased and beaten by Scott. Yi Hui didn't dare to complain about his backache, he knew that the current world was respected by the strong, if it was not Scott who chased after his ass like this and beat him, but a bandit with a dagger, or a fierce beast with teeth and claws, the consequences he suffered would not only be as simple as being covered in powder. It's a world of non-stop fighting.

A morning of practice made Yi Hui sweat, soaked in the bathtub, he communicated with the system to check his personal surname column, the green bar representing agility has increased significantly compared to when he first came, it seems that after two days of assault practice, he has indeed achieved some results. In addition, several physical fitness indicators such as physique, strength, and energy related to the "dodging and attacking" subjects taught by Scott have also improved slightly. Being able to observe his own growth and improvement in such an intuitive way, Yi Hui is quite satisfied. For example, the acquisition of Yi Hui's skills is an upgrade mechanism to gain experience from fighting monsters and then increase the level to extract skills, while the improvement of Yi Hui's own quality is a growth mechanism similar to the cultivation mode of "The Legend of Martial Arts Heroes".

"It's not enough to train like this." Yi Hui soaked in the hot water and thought. The power of the skills provided by the LOL system Yi Hui has already experienced it himself, but through his own training, he has only improved his physical fitness but cannot provide him with an experience bonus, and the function of the soul attraction lamp to absorb the soul has never been really used so far. Yi Hui, who is physically weak, does not want to leave Grenoble to fight monsters and upgrade until his combat power reaches the level of a thief, and now he does not have the ability to farm monsters alone, and the only thing he can try is the defense and magic resistance provided by the Soul Guiding Lamp. Where can I get fresh souls? Yi Hui thought about it, there was only one place that could be done, and that was the slaughterhouse, where a large number of livestock were slaughtered every day, and a large number of souls could be obtained there. Having made up his mind, Yi Hui prepared to go to the slaughterhouse to have a look.

After lunch, Yi Hui walked out of the gate of the Iron Shield Mercenary Group to the slaughterhouse, walked through several avenues and alleys, and came to the slaughterhouse located on the edge of the residential and commercial areas. There was a strong smell of blood in the slaughterhouse, and as soon as Yi Hui entered the door, he saw several big men with blood-stained aprons on their shirts, slaughtering a pig with its legs kicking wildly. The big man held a short knife and stabbed the pig's throat decisively, and the bright red blood arrow gushed out and fell into the wooden basin, causing a steaming heat. "Hey, this is ......" Yi Hui floated above the dead pig with a pale green misty light, this should be soul energy. Yi Hui hurriedly summoned the Soul Attraction Lamp, and the small green light cluster fluttered towards Yi Hui and was sucked into the Soul Attraction Lamp like smoke.

It is said that the soul guide lamp can also probe a memory of the soul before death, and Yi Hui probed it for a while, and this probe startled Yi Hui. While immersing his consciousness in the memory of the pig before he died, Yi Hui felt the fear, despair, and mania that the pig felt before he died, and he saw a sharp knife coming straight into his throat. "Ah......" This picture is a hundred times more real than a 3D movie, which makes Yi Hui break out in a cold sweat, his expression was in a trance for a long time before he settled, and the big men who killed the pigs looked at each other and laughed. They thought that Yi Hui was frightened by the scene of killing pigs and shouted. Yi Hui left the slaughterhouse in embarrassment, the fright he received just now made him unable to calmly watch the pig killing process, and the most important thing was that the soul of the pig he absorbed just now was refined by the soul attraction lamp, and the bonus to his own defense and magic resistance was a little insignificant on the panel of his personal caste, and he couldn't see the change if he didn't look carefully. Absorbing and refining these souls is simply a waste of time, and it is not as fast as exercising your body in the mercenary group with this time. It seems that it is still the field experience that is the king of upgrading and improving.

Since he had already come out, Yi Hui was not in a hurry to go back, he followed the road to the mercenary union. The Mercenary Guild has a grand hall, which reminds Yi Hui of the securities trading market, in fact, the atmosphere here is indeed very similar to the securities trading market. The mercenaries all looked up at the information displayed by the development magic on the mission release board. Each piece of information is a task, and there are many ways to arrange this information, some according to the amount of commission, some according to geographical location, and some according to the time when the task was released. These arrangements are all for the convenience of the mercenary group in providing services for themselves to receive tasks. Of course, the Mercenary Guild will charge a small referral fee depending on the amount of tasks received. Mercenary groups can also bypass the mercenary union and sign employment contracts directly with employers, but completing these tasks cannot be counted in the mercenary group's points in the mercenary union, nor can they get the intelligence services provided by the mercenary union, so most mercenary groups are still willing to accept tasks in the mercenary guild.

Yi Hui came to the Mercenary Guild this time to register his relevant information, and he came to the counter marked "Registration and Registration". Behind the counter was a young man, dressed in a voluminous robe with the badge representing the staff of the Mercenary Guild.

"Excuse me, what can I do for you, Mr. Mercenary?" The young man is very polite and enthusiastic about his work.

Yi Hui had already hung his badge when he entered the door, it was something to mark his identity, and it could save a lot of trouble by hanging it, so the young man could see at a glance that Yi Hui was a mercenary.

"I'm here to register my profile."

"What level of mercenary group are you? What is the name? ”

"Level 2, Iron Shield Mercenary Regiment."

"Okay, I'll check it out for you."

There are hundreds of mercenary groups registered in the Grenoble Mercenary Guild, and the young staff members checked the information book high behind their backs for a while before finding the registration information of the Iron Shield Mercenary Group.

"Please fill out a form here, we will compile and archive your information within 2 days, the mercenary group you belong to is still small, and your information will be archived faster. Now everything can be left to us. After filling out a form, Yi Hui's registration was completed. The content of the registration is nothing more than occupation, skills, talents, specialties, etc., if you have it, it doesn't matter if you don't write it, the most important thing is that Yi Hui must register his appearance in the mercenary union's database through the union's magic imager, a kind of camera-like thing. In the career column, Yi Hui thought about it and filled in the title of "trainee thief". For the rest, Yi Hui chose not to fill it in, after all, it is a kind of unclear thing that he came to this world, such as "adventure" and "honor", if you have experience in the future, fill it in slowly.

After completing the registration of information, Yi Hui turned around and returned to the hall, looking at the tasks one by one, his eyes were almost spent. There are many types of quests, which are roughly divided into several items: one is the acquisition of quest items, of course, through mercenary means, and this type of quest will be released in major guilds. One is combat missions, such as the encirclement and suppression of bandits, the killing of beasts that endanger humans, the tasks of assisting the empire and the Holy See in wars, and so on. There is also the bodyguard mission, which is the task of escorting an object or person to a specific place. Then there is the exploration mission, as the name suggests, the exploration mission is to explore an unknown location, complete the investigation of some indicators of the location and complete the task.

Yi Hui found a problem in the task column: these tasks can be completed by one person or in the name of a mercenary group, and if the tasks are completed by an individual, the mercenary group can also get the corresponding task points, but the corresponding proportion will be a little smaller, and the increase in the level of individual mercenaries will be a little faster.
