The day after the task was completed, Du Mu received a message of merit change.

After evaluation, last night's compulsory task brought him a total of 600 meritorious rewards, which can be called a lot of gains, after all, ordinary earth-level tasks, the remuneration is generally only about 100 meritorious services, and although the difficulty is slightly lower than the mandatory task, it is not much worse, from this point of view, the cost performance of the compulsory task is undoubtedly much higher.

Of course, like mandatory tasks, it is usually unavoidable, last night's task was just a coincidence, and if you want to be a member of the Jin Riyao level, Du Mu still has to honestly perform ordinary tasks.

Counting the previous merits, he has a total of 1,122 merits in his hands, which is still a big gap from the 5,000 merits required for promotion.

"It just so happens that there is nothing wrong with the dream during this time, so I just solved the promotion first, and by the way, I was looking for a way to quickly improve my strength!" Du Mu quickly made a decision.

It's a pity that due to the attack of Kuroye, the capital's bar stronghold is now destroyed, and if you want to recover, you have to mobilize people from other places, which is not something that can be done in a while.

Du Mu then contacted Red Phosphorus, only to learn that although he successfully intercepted and destroyed the Black Leaf convoy last night, he still let the last group of people flee the capital, and there was also a logistics support staff who were taken away by the captives.

This also means that some of the information about the annual ring branch and personnel has fallen into the hands of Black Leaf, and there is no doubt that the other party will definitely use the information obtained to launch a counterattack in the near future, thanks to this, most of the power of the annual ring in the Federation is now used to deal with this matter, and the work of rebuilding the stronghold of the Qingteng Bar may have to be postponed for a while.

Naturally, there will definitely be no way to receive tasks in the capital for the time being, and if you want to take the mission, you can only go to other branch strongholds.

"Is the nearest branch stronghold?" Under Du Mu's inquiry, Red Phosphorus muttered for a few seconds and replied, "That should be Nandao City, which is less than a day's drive from the capital." ”

Speaking of which, Red Phosphorus seemed to remember something, and added, "Speaking of which, Mr. Nightmare, if you plan to earn merit, you just happened to have a good task recently that you might consider taking on." ”

"What task?" Du Mu was interested, Red Phosphorus was capable, and the task mentioned to him at this time was definitely not low.

"Do you know the Changge Mountains? Recently, it is said that someone has found traces of ruins there, and the organization has just released a related exploration mission, if you have time, you may as well take this mission. ”

Changge Mountains?

Du Mu recalled in his mind, and finally remembered that this mountain range seemed to be located in the wilderness near Xinluo City, separated by more than 30 kilometers from Xinluo City, which could be called the depths of the wilderness.

As we all know, due to the existence of wild beasts, the wilderness is full of dangers, and there are still many unexplored areas, even if you are a warrior, if you are not careful in the wilderness, you can easily become the ration of the wild beasts, let alone the depths of the wilderness, the latter is more dangerous.

Of course, due to the inaccessibility of people, the possibility of finding an ownerless treasure or other treasure there is also extremely high.

For this reason, warriors often form teams of adventurers to explore in the wilderness.

Due to the abundant resources, the Changge Mountain Range itself is a relatively famous exploration treasure land, and adventurers gather, and now there are rumors of the existence of ruins, and the number of adventurers and people from all parties who want to come to hear the news will increase more and more.

"This news spread a week ago, the authenticity is unknown, but according to the organization's early exploration, the possibility of the real existence of the ruins is very high, so the exploration mission was specially released, and the level is set to the Tuyao level, after all, the danger of that place is not low, plus there are many adventurous teams fishing in troubled waters, and the members who are not strong enough may not be able to handle the exploration mission. ”

Red phosphorus was not slow, and patiently explained to Du Mu.

"For this kind of exploration mission involving the existence of ruins, the lower reward is 100 merits, and then there are different degrees of increase depending on the level of detail of the information obtained, if Mr. Nightmare can get the specific location of the ruins, the mission reward is estimated to be no lower than this mandatory mission, and even if you can help the organization to seize control of the ruins, it is not impossible to get a four-figure merit at one time!"

After quietly listening to Red Phosphorus's narration, Du Mu couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

According to Red Phosphorus, the potential benefits of this task are indeed extremely high, but the disadvantages are also obvious: the uncertainty is too high and the time it takes.

Generally speaking, the time required for a survey mission like this is at least a month, and if you are unlucky, it can take two or three months, and more importantly, the reward for the mission is uncertain, and if the news of the ruins is false, he can get no more than 200 merit points for this mission.

In the same month or two, if it goes well, it is enough for him to complete three or four ordinary tasks, and he will have at least 300 meritorious deeds.

"However, if the existence of the ruins is real, it may be able to extract additional income from it. ”

Relics are synonymous with treasure and wealth, that's the consensus of all.

Of course, it is also synonymous with death and risk.

After thinking about it for a while, Du Mu finally decided to take over the exploration task.

If you don't risk any high returns, not to mention that if there are really ruins, maybe you can find a solution to the bottleneck that limits his strength improvement in the ruins.

"Then leave the task to me in charge, there is no organization branch in Xinluo City, I can ask friends from other branches to help you handle the procedures for receiving the task, and then you can go directly to the Changge Mountain Range to carry out the task!"

"Well, I'm sorry for you!"

"Giggles, Mr. Nightmare saved my life, this is not enough to repay the grace of saving my life, please speak up if you need to use me in the future. ”

The two chatted a few more words, and then Du Mu hung up the phone and turned to the Internet to check the train schedule to Xinluo City.

"A day's and a night's drive...... The nearest one is tomorrow afternoon, well, it's still in time. ”

Du Mu put down his phone, and then thought of a question, and couldn't help frowning.

It's not difficult to go to Shinra City, but the problem is that he has only entered the wilderness a handful of times, and the only time was when he went to the north to perform an actual combat mission with Luo Shen and others in the first grade, and that time it was led by people from the military, but this time he was alone.

If you're not familiar with the wilderness, there's no difference between going deep into it and looking for death.

"You have to find a guide!" Du Mu raised his eyebrows and groaned.

If there is a group of people who are most familiar with the wilderness, it is undoubtedly the adventure team.

Du Mu quickly had a plan in his heart, but he didn't know much about this aspect, if he wanted to find a guide as soon as possible, it was best to find someone familiar to help.
