Chapter XVI: The Blood Pact

"It's too mushy to test. "That was my first thought. But then I thought about it, "No, it should be easy to break rocks with a body that has completed the forging period." And this stone has obviously accumulated a layer of dust on it, which has obviously been left here for a long time. But there is no trace on the surface of this large stone, and it seems that this stone is not so simple. ”

Thinking of this, he asked the woman, "Sister, what kind of stone is this?"

The woman at the front desk was asked by me for a moment, and then said to me, "This is the orange light stone used in the testing period!

Seeing that I shook her head, she then explained to me: "Orange Light Stone is a strange kind of stone, this kind of stone is not only much harder than ordinary rocks, but once it is attacked by external forces, the Orange Light Stone will emit a corresponding height of orange light from the bottom to the top according to the strength of the attack.

The upper limit of the strength that this orange light stone can test is 2,000 catties, and the minimum strength limit for completing the forging period is 500 catties. In other words, if you want to pass the test, you need to shoot at least a quarter of the way through the stone. ”

"I see. Wait, oh! It seems that the load of the army training uniform I am wearing is also designed to train soldiers who have completed the training period as soon as possible. ”

Thinking of this, I feel a lot more steady. The training clothes I was wearing were already as light as nothing after I completed the physical period, and it was obvious that my strength had already exceeded 500 catties. Intrigued by my own power, though, I walked over to the Orange Light Stone and struck at it with all my might.

The orange light was indeed very hard, and with all the strength of my body hitting the stone, I still couldn't help but shake my fists and hurt. The moment you hit the stone, an orange light rose from under the orange light stone. The light rose rapidly, and almost instantaneously crossed the "pass line" until it was more than half past the stone.

"Sister, what is my strength?" asked the woman at the front desk curiously, as the pain in her hand had disappeared at this moment.

I saw that the woman at the front desk did not answer my question, but was stunned.

In fact, I don't blame her for being like this, even if she broke the ground, she didn't expect it to be such a result. Generally, after completing the body forging period, the overall completion degree of the three stages of skin training, bone forging, and marrow consolidation must reach 80% in order to succeed. It is at this time that the body will reach a strength of more than five hundred catties. And even if the overall completion of these three stages reaches 100% perfection, the strength will not exceed 800 catties, and it is almost impossible for a strength of more than 1,000 catties like me.

It's hard to imagine that this freak with a strength of more than a thousand pounds is actually a cute seven or eight-year-old boy.

Seeing that she froze, I asked again in a louder voice, and she woke up. She looked at me like a monster and said to me, "One, one thousand hundred and two hundred pounds." Little brother, are you really human?"

I scratched my head embarrassedly, and replied to the woman at the front desk embarrassedly: "It's all taught by the eldest brother." By the way, it's time for my big brother to test it. ”

Hearing this, the woman at the front desk first glanced at the broken earth beside me, and then said, "No need, since you were taught by your eldest brother, I think he should be able to complete it easily." Even if you pass this test, come with me to register as a mercenary. ”

I was stunned for a moment, then turned my head and looked at the earth-breaking cube beside me. With my small body, I can play more than a thousand catties of strength. If you want to break the ground, this strong man who is more than two meters tall who taught me to forge my body, will not be blown up by the stone!

Soon we will be registered as mercenaries. This mercenary pavilion deserves to be called the freest organization. We didn't even need a name, but we were given two purple tokens of the same shape as the doorway, with fists and swords intertwined.

The Mercenary Pavilion is an organization that uses tokens to divide the rank and status of mercenaries. Mercenary orders are divided into seven types: red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, and purple. Among them, the purple token level is the lowest, and the red token level is the highest.

Although the higher the mercenary level, the better the treatment and status enjoyed in the mercenary pavilion, but it is very difficult to raise the mercenary level to the right one.

Mercenary missions are divided into five levels: S, A, B, C, and D. If you do S-class missions repeatedly, it will take about five years to increase the level from purple to red. And if you do this D-class mission repeatedly, you won't be able to reach red even if it takes fifty years.

The S-level mission is incredibly difficult, and even the top experts dare not take it easily. Because this S-level mission is too dangerous, no one will risk their lives in order to improve the mercenary level, so there are no more than ten red-level masters in the entire mercenary pavilion.

"Little brother, congratulations on becoming a member of the regiment, work hard in the future!" After helping us popularize the basic knowledge of the Mercenary Pavilion, the woman at the front desk said to me with a smile. And the broken earth standing next to me was directly ignored by her, obviously she was still angry with the irresponsible "elder" of breaking the earth.

Seeing that the atmosphere was not right at this time, I changed the topic and said to the woman at the front desk: "Thank you, sister!

"The wall of things is right behind me. Little brother, didn't you notice?" asked the woman at the front desk strangely.

After being here for so long, I certainly noticed the white wall behind her carved with strange yellow symbols. But I could never have imagined that the strange symbol that looked like a bunch of grapes connected together was actually the text of this world. At this moment, I thought to myself, "It's over, this word is more difficult than English, and if you want to learn all these words, you won't have to use it for thirty or fifty years! No matter how long you have to learn it in the future, it knows me now, and I don't know it either!" I am a human trafficker, and I guess I haven't graduated from elementary school, and my education level is certainly not very high. Hey, it looks like I'm going to be illiterate this time and ask her for advice. It's so shameless!"

And just as he was crying and about to ask the woman at the front desk about the content of those tasks, he saw Potu pointing to a string of words in the lower left corner of the task wall, and then said, "We want to choose that." ”

"The traffickers in this world are so cultured. "That was my first reaction.

The woman at the front desk glanced at the task that the groundbreaking was referring to, and for the first time nodded to the groundbreaking with a normal attitude. Obviously, in her eyes, that mission was a good choice for our current situation.

Then she changed back to her old attitude and said to Breaking Ground: "Touch your chosen quest with blood, and then collect it with a token." ”

"With blood?" I asked, surprised.

"Yes, with blood. Each task on the task wall in front of you contains a drop of blood from the corresponding employer. If you want to take on these tasks, you must use your own blood to match the blood of the employer on the task, and form a contract. The main purpose of the contract is to maintain the relationship between the employer and the mercenary.

Since the tasks are generally issued by employers who are weaker than mercenaries, there are many villains in the free mercenary pavilion who kill the employer's life and rob the employer's property before completing the task. So in order to prevent this kind of thing from happening, the Mercenary Pavilion used a contract to complete the task. As long as any party to the contract kills the other during the contract, all mercenaries around the world will issue an alarm and provide the location of the party who violated the contract, and then the mercenaries around the world will hunt down the violator at all costs until death.

If you want to cancel the contract, you can only do it if the hirer is not the hirer or wait until the task is completed, and then the hirer can use his own blood points on the token to collect the task, and then the contract can be removed. Since this contract is accompanied by blood from the beginning to the end, this contract is also figuratively called the "Blood Pact". ”

As I listened to the woman at the front desk, Breaking Ground was already walking towards the mission wall, biting his finger and tapping it on the word he had chosen. I saw that the moment his blood-stained finger touched the task wall, the yellow text on the mission he had chosen immediately formed a red solid circle. Then the purple task order was pasted on the red solid circle, and after only a few moments, the red circle was absorbed into the token, and the wall of the yellow text just now became empty.

While sighing at the magic of this scene, I thought to myself, "I don't know what task I took on to break the ground?"
