The old woman kept a smile on her face and continued, "You must know that our sacrificial union has a long history, and we can't let you join us without a certain fighting foundation. Therefore, we specially prepared for an exam to see your strength, are you ready? ”

Ice Lemon nodded.

"Very well, then let me briefly talk about the requirements of the exam. After the door behind me opened, there was a wood, there were many monsters in this wood, and your task was to find the cabin in the woods, and when you reached the cabin, someone there would naturally guide you, and they would give you instructions on what to do, but ......," said the old woman, who took out an hourglass, put it on the table, and continued: "You only have fifteen minutes, and when the sand of this hourglass is gone, and you have not yet reached the cabin, the mission will be declared a failure. Do you have faith? ”

I glanced at the hourglass, and at the moment the sand stopped at the top and did not leak down, although it did not conform to the principle of gravity, but I knew that once I entered the woods that the old woman said, the sand would immediately walk, but I was more concerned about another question: "Excuse me, can the mercenaries participate in this mission together?" ”

The old woman nodded and said, "Of course." ”

This was a huge relief to me.

Bing Lemon put away the hourglass on the table: "Then let's go, tail ring, let's go!" ”

"Yes!" Perhaps, this is also the last time I will "do what I am told".

We walked around the old woman's desk and out of the wooden door, which creaked shut by itself, and in front of us was a forest that was much more normal than the Forest of Giant Trees. Although it is a parallel space, the weather is not parallel to Lin Songcheng, it is a cloudy day, and the woods are also "gloomy" together, adding a bit of horror. Sure enough, the hourglass in Ice Lemon's hand began to work, and the sand flowed.

The mission was only 15 minutes long, proving that the cabin in the woods wasn't very, very far away. But I don't know what kind of monsters you will encounter along the way.

The woods were so dense that there was hardly a single ray of light in the woods, and the sight of overgrown weeds, waist-tall, was all the more depressing, for God knows when a monster would emerge from the trees or the grass. Fortunately, there is also a road in this wood, and since there is a road, it is naturally the direction in which we are headed. I walked in front of Ice Lemon to guard against any sneak attacks, and although Ice Lemon had only made a big show in the Giant Wood Forest, she was also habitually firmly following me.

Suddenly, there was a rustle of leaves in front of us, and the two of us immediately stood on guard, only to see a few black clumps of black balls rushing out of the leaves and flying towards us, with a "squeak" sound. This is a bat, a level 10 monster, but after all, this is a copy of the sacrifice transfer, for people who usually add attribute points to intelligence at levels 1 to 10, how can it be possible to arrange such a difficult battle.

I didn't even bother to draw my sword, but with both hands, I caught two bats in the air and played a happy match, and the two bats slammed into each other and died in close contact with my own kind. As soon as the two bats died, there was a lot of light around them. I'm sure it's not a reward for killing monsters, as the light source comes from the countless red points of light between the trees.

"Well, the brethren of those two bats don't seem to be very kind to us?" I don't think it's going to be good.

"Unfriendly? What's wrong? Ice Lemon still kept her sluggishness.

Suddenly, there was a chatter in the woods, which instantly made Bing Lemon know what I was thinking about wrong. It was dark in front of us, and we didn't know how many bats flew in the tunnel. Although the attack power of the monsters here is very low, it is not difficult to bite one or two people to death at the same time.

"These bats are coming from above, you bend down, let me fend off."

I don't know if I'm too strong or those bats are too weak, those bats can't hurt me at all, we fight and walk, keep moving forward, but after all, there are hundreds of monsters around, it's impossible to go how fast. I had slashed down a lot of bats, but they were still in full bloom, and it occurred to me that the task was not to clear the woods of monsters, but to get to the forest hut in fifteen minutes.

"Master, look at the hourglass, how much time is left!" I yelled.

Binglemon took out the hourglass and saw that only a third of the sand was left. These monsters seriously affected the speed of our journey, and it took us ten minutes to walk a little way, and what is even worse is that I don't know how many roads there are in the road, and it may be too late to fly.

"Tail ring, there's only five minutes left, what are we going to do?"

"These bats don't have a high attack power, let's leave them alone, just run forward with our heads in our hands, we must use the ones we run. You keep an eye on your health and are ready to use potions on yourself. ”

In this way, we completely ignored the bats and lunged forward, perhaps in a pejorative sense, "holding the head of the rat", in short, when we stopped again, the bats were already far behind us, and listening to the faint squeak, I guess they didn't mean to chase after them. However, our health has dropped very much, although life lies in movement, but it will consume HP if it takes the strength to eat milk and run at full speed, otherwise the marathon world record in the real world will become a joke here.

There were two minutes left, and the oppression of the time was enough to make it seem like the fire had burned to the eyelashes, but fortunately, in the depths of the woods, I found a faint glow, which also meant that there were people there. Bing Lemon was overjoyed and said: "Tail ring, look, it's the front!" ”

Yes, victory is just around the corner, and it seems that this trial task is indeed not so difficult, and there is no danger.

Although the light of the fire was a long way from us, it was enough time to reach the hut in two minutes, but at that moment, the alarm suddenly sounded around us, and I couldn't help but make people nervous again.

"In the disorder of space, there are unexpected characters entering the space." The heavens kept repeating the words.

"Tail ring, what does that mean?" Ice Lemon asked me, but I didn't know if it was what players called a "bug".

When the man in the sky who didn't know who stopped the single sentence looping, we suddenly heard a familiar voice.

"Help, where is this? Help me? Lots of bats. A panicked voice came from behind us.

I recognized the voice, it was the boy in the union hall who was urging players to line up. Bing Lemon also heard it: "The tail ring, it's the boy just now, it seems that he was besieged by bats." Shall we go and save him? ”

The attack power of those bats was so low, it was easy to save the boy, but it would be difficult to rush to the place where the bats were piled up just now within two minutes, save him, and then rush to the cabin in the woods. For the sake of the master's successful job transfer, I must persuade the master to be selfish: "Master, it is better to report to the cabin in the forest first, and then go back to save that person, otherwise it will ......"

Before I could finish my sentence, the boy screamed from afar, not knowing whether he had been bitten or frightened mad. Binglemon grabbed my hand, hurriedly ran back, and said, "No matter, it's important to save people." "It's the first time Binglemon has been so decisive, and I can only follow suit.

Ran to the place where we were besieged by bats just now, and sure enough, a large group of bats hugged together, and it seemed that the boy was surrounded by it, and the boy seemed to sense us and shouted for help: "Help me, please help me." "In the past, I might have been able to persuade my master to be ruthless and complete my job transfer trial first, but now, I can't sit idly by at all, after all, I am also an NPC.

I drew the bronze sword on my back and swung it through the pile of bats, and one by one the bats fell to the ground one after another. Dispersed the bats, and I saw the NPC, crouched on the ground with his head in his hands, looking very embarrassed.

As I dealt with the remnants of bats, I called out to the NPC, "Hey, if you can walk, get up and lie on the ground and wait to die?" The boy looked up and saw me, as if he had seen a savior, and he quickly stood up and thanked me.

"This group of bats can't be killed, let's escape over there first, and then I'll protect you."

The boy said yes, and the two of us retreated together towards where the Ice Lemon was.

Converging with Ice Lemon, the three of them immediately ran wildly, out of the attack range of the group of bats, and when they reached safety, my main concern was how much time was left, but the sand of the hourglass in Ice Lemon's hand had already run out, and it may have already been finished, and we only found out now.

"I just stayed in the union hall for a good time, and suddenly I teleported here for some reason, if it wasn't for you to save me, something would really have happened today." The NPC started thanking us again.

"So, your presence here was purely accidental?" I asked.

"Well, yes, it can be considered a serious accident." The teenager said.

Listening to the young man's tone, this may be an accident with a negligible chance of happening, but unfortunately we met the man, I really don't know what the luck of the master of the road is so much use.

Binglemon looked at the bottle of hourglass that had already been gone, sighed, and said, "Although I failed this exam, I can definitely make up for it, right?" ”

"I don't know anything about this, or let's go to the cabin in the woods."

We continued to walk towards the cabin in the woods, but our hearts were filled with indescribable loss. Walking to the place where the fire we saw just now began, it was just a bonfire. There is no hut in the woods, maybe our mission has failed, and we won't even see the appearance of the hut.

The young man was also ashamed, and said, "I hurt you, and if it weren't for saving me, your trial for changing jobs would have been successful." ”

Bing Lemon smiled slightly and said, "Since you are in danger, of course you are saved, otherwise even if you succeed in changing jobs, you will not be able to do a qualified sacrifice." ”

The young man clapped his hands and said, "Well said, well said, perhaps, this is the most perfect answer." As soon as the words fell, the surroundings suddenly lit up, and the scene around us changed, and we instantly entered a very delicate wooden house, and the young man did not enter this wooden house with him, but the old woman who had given me the task before.

"First of all, we want to make a sincere apology because we lied to you before." The old woman said.

"Huh? Tricked us? Binglemon was slightly surprised.

"Yes, fifteen minutes, just to increase your tension, just to see if you will save someone who has nothing to do with it when it is in your own interest. This is the focus of our assessment. ”

"Ah, that's the case, your sacrificial union is too treacherous." I couldn't help but grumble.

This is also to test whether everyone really has the love that they can have for the profession of sacrifice. Okay, now that the job transfer trial has been completed, I'm going to send you to the branch president and go through the onboarding procedures.

After saying that, the scene around us changed again, and we came to a temple, and outside the temple door was the bustling sound of talking, which represented that we had returned from the parallel space to the previous sacrificial union, commonly known as the exit copy. Therefore, in the temple, not only us, but also two familiar people, the Daughter of Flowers, and her mercenaries.

The Lady of the Flower was also overjoyed to see us: "Lemon, have you also passed the trial?" That's nice! ”

"yes, I'm really lucky, I didn't expect me to pass." Bing Lemon said with a smile.

"Congratulations to all of you for successfully passing the trial of the sacrificial transfer, allow me to introduce myself again, I am the branch president of the sacrificial union Lin Songcheng, Mi Xiu." A white-robed man standing in the temple spoke.

When everyone looked at it, they recognized that the white-robed man was the young man who was rescued in the copy, and everyone was naturally stunned.

Mi Xiu smiled slightly, and said: "The one who commanded everyone to line up in the hall outside the door, and the one who was attacked by monsters in the woods, are all doppelgangers that I deliberately arranged. As for why I want to arrange it this way, the personnel who issued the trial task have already explained it. Then, the two of you who successfully completed the task during this period of time are the Flower Girl and Ice Lemon. Now, let's get started with the onboarding process, shall we? ”

The Flower Girl, who had been completely brainwashed by Mixiu's handsomeness, was completely stunned, and nodded again and again, and Bing Lemon also nodded. Looking at the appearance of the Daughter of Flowers, I immediately understood why she would complete the task so quickly, it must have been to save the handsome guy, and the chakra broke out. (Narrator-kun: The tail ring has also seen Naruto??? ⊙_⊙b Khan)

"Well, the Daughter of the Flower is here first, so let's start your transfer ceremony first." Mishew closed his eyes and said, "God Elos, please bless this God's people with your strength and let them carry out God's will and return the peaceful ...... of Kars to the continent of Kars, free from disease and suffering."

Mi Xiu babbled a long prayer, and at this solemn moment, the flower girl still only had Mi Xiu's handsome face in her eyes, and it seemed that she had completely forgotten the previous demon knife. After the prayer is completed, the Lady of the Flower officially becomes a sacrifice, and the Girl of the Flower looks at Mi Xiu and is pleasantly surprised to find that her HP maximum has increased. This is because if the job change is successful, the bonuses of various attributes will increase.

While the flower girl was surprised, Bing Lemon was taken aback: "What about your mercenaries?" ”

Only then did the flower girl realize that her mercenary had disappeared: "Oh, once the turn is successful, of course there will be no mercenaries." ”

"None?"

Watching Bilemon continue to ask, I wanted to lie to her again in good faith, saying that it meant to teleport back to the barracks. Unexpectedly, the daughter of the flower preempted me and replied: "Yes, the mercenary only accompanies us from level 1 to 10, and when we successfully change jobs, the mercenary's data will be automatically deleted." ”

"Huh? Automatic deletion? Isn't that ...... He's dead? Binglemon stared at me with wide eyes, her eyes flickering, her eyes filled with tears, and she didn't know if she blamed me for lying to her or something.

"Didn't you say that you would go back to the barracks and take on a new mission?" Ice Lemon asked.

I didn't reply.

"Doesn't that mean that after you accept a new mission, I can still fight with you?"

I still didn't answer.

The two of them were silent for a long time, and Bing Lemon muttered: "No wonder, if you want me to practice fighting, it turns out that you knew that you would die when I succeeded in changing jobs......"

The lie was exposed, I was speechless, I could only not answer from beginning to end, I lowered my head and didn't dare to look at Bing Lemon's eyes, in fact, as a mercenary, I wouldn't cry, but I don't know if it was because of my super high AI, so that I also imitated the humans in the real world, and my vision began to blur.

Seeing that Ice Lemon's mood was suddenly very excited, Mixiu said, "Don't worry, the power of the Elos God will purify Ice Lemon's soul and make her breath calm." Mishew closed his eyes again and read the prayer he had just recited.

I looked down at the floor, I didn't dare to look at the ice lemon anymore, the scene in front of me suddenly began to slowly distort, the prayer in Mixiu's mouth became more and more blurred in my ears, and my body became lighter and lighter, it seems that this temple is really my last station, No. 1 mercenary, came to this land with an extraordinary identity, and completed the task with honor, but there was a strange feeling in my heart, sure enough, I was still unwilling
