Chapter 9: Star, Moon, and Wolf Grass
The time for the Red City Mercenary Alliance to release tasks is eight o'clock in the morning every day, and the earlier you come, the more you can receive a relatively easy and well-paid task. The team that comes late can only take on the remaining tasks that are either difficult and pay well, or less difficult and less rewarding.
In the early days, birds had worms, and this sentence was actually very tried here. Again, the task cannot be taken easily, and the consequences of not completing it are very serious.
Many mercenary groups have tents stationed near high-rise buildings, and some large mercenary groups send mission spokespersons here to take on suitable tasks.
In the morning of the Red City, the hotel where Cun Mang stayed.
Cun Mang walked out of the hotel hall with Liu Wumo and Lan Xing, who were yawning.
When he came to the street, Cun Mang urged the two: "Don't grind, hurry up, otherwise you won't be able to catch up with the task release." ”
After urging, he didn't forget to take out the pocket watch in the space ring and looked at the time.
Pocket watches are basically the standard for every mercenary to check the time in this world, and it is not uncommon for Liu Wumo to have one, which Moses put in his baggage when he left.
When Liu Wumo saw his spatial ring, his eyes sparkled.
Because Moses also had one, but Moses seemed to be more advanced than him.
Liu Wumo wanted to come, but Moses refused to give it alive or dead, saying that it was commemorative.
In the end, Liu Wumo had to carry his broken burden and run all over the world.
The space ring is a relatively high-level bag item, and there is a space magic array in it, with at least ten cubic spaces, which can hold a lot of things.
Due to the current number of mercenaries, such items are expensive and scarce, and a space ring costs a hundred gold coins at worst, which is typical for local tyrants.
Most people like Liu Wumo will buy a space bag to hang on their bodies, and Lanxing has one.
A space bag, with a small magic array, can support at least two cubic or so spaces, which is also enough.
But Liu Wumo couldn't afford it at all, when he first came, he found that these things would go out with dozens of gold coins, and Liu Wumo's consistent miser image made him decide to put these things away first and make money.
"Why are you up so early, Miss Ben hasn't slept yet. Bluestar complained.
"My eldest lady, when you are well asleep, we won't even be able to drink soup. Cun Mang said, speeding up his pace a little.
Cun Mang paused, and then said: "We have just left home now, we have to earn everything by ourselves to eat, drink and Lazar, and we need money to supply some of the necessary expenses of the mercenary group. ”
Lan Xing couldn't refute it, and pouted angrily.
At this time, Liu Wumo interjected: "Eh, I've always been curious, what are you doing at home?"
When he said this, Liu Wumo's eyes were still staring at the space ring on Cun Mang's hand.
Cun Mang found Liu Wumo's gaze, quickly put his hand in his trouser pocket, and said viciously: "Don't pay attention to this ring, I didn't bring much coiling when I came out, this ring is the only valuable item, otherwise I will turn my face with you." ”
The intention was recognized, and Liu Wumo had to give up: "Don't be angry, I just asked what your family is for." ”
Soon, the three of them came to the door of the mercenary alliance.
Cun Mang looked at the pocket watch, seven fifty-five, fortunately caught up.
Open at eight o'clock, ten minutes of entry time, if you don't wait, you will inevitably close the door of the mission hall.
After everyone finishes the task, the door opens, and all the tasks are put away, if you are late, please be early tomorrow.
At this time, the gate of the mercenary alliance was closed, there was a lot of noise outside the gate, and hundreds of mercenaries of various groups had gathered in the open space, standing there in twos and threes, chatting, waiting for the task.
There is a small window next to the gate to register the mercenary group to sign in and order, so that you can get the tasks in a first-served order.
Cun Mang didn't let Liu Wumo call this time, and squeezed directly to the sign-in window at the gate.
In order to facilitate everyone to receive tasks, the Mercenary Alliance has set up four categories of task level sign-in books in the sign-in window, A, B, C, and S.
Registration needs to be based on the type of registration you have chosen.
Under normal circumstances, a newly established mercenary team like Liu Wumo can only take on some C-level simple tasks, such as finding some low-level materials, hunting some low-level magical beasts, and so on. If you complete it well, you will not only be rewarded, but you can also accumulate mercenary points, which can be exchanged for rare team items to enhance the strength of the team, such as space rings, some rare wands, swords and other weapons and equipment.
But if you only rely on the pitiful few points of C-level missions, you won't want to get these things in your life.
So under certain conditions, those with strength will be richer, and those without strength will have to linger at the bottom.
But it also encourages mercenary groups who are not willing to be mediocre to take risks.
As a four-star great sword master, his eyes will definitely not be on C-level tasks.
I saw that Cun Mang didn't hesitate too much, and signed the four words Dream Girl on the A-level task book, and when he signed, Cun Mang's eyelids twitched.
After a while, Cun Mang squeezed back to Liu Wumo, who was waiting to chat, Lan Xing's side.
"How is it, what task did you sign?" asked Liu Wumo casually.
"A-level, a team with such a high-level configuration as ours, not doing S-level tasks is already very face-saving for the mercenary alliance. Cun Mang completely ignored the disdainful gaze of the people next to him, and said unashamedly.
I have been with Liu Wumo for a long time, and I was infected by Liu Wumo's self-confidence.
Thinking about it, a four-star great sword master, a three-star great priest, and Liu Wumo, who has the strength of a sword saint but claims to be a magician, directly ignored Lan Xing. Such a configuration, which large team is placed in, is the core person.
After finishing speaking, he looked around again: "What's the situation with Lotte, why hasn't it arrived yet." ”
Just then, a voice rang out.
"Hey, guys. ”
Several people heard the sound and looked back.
Lotte, who was belated, dragged his tired steps and ran over in small steps.
"Why is it so late?" Lan Xing thoughtfully took out the handkerchief and handed it to Lotte to wipe his sweat.
Lotte took the handkerchief and said thank you, and wiped it slightly: "I went to say goodbye to the mentor in the morning, and the tutor asked me something and delayed it for a while, so I was late." ”
"Squeak~~~~"
At this time, the loud sound of the door opening made the noise of the scene much quieter.
After a while, the people around me entered the door one after another.
"Alright, don't waste time, let's go. ”
A few people followed the road sign and came to the A-class mission hall.
To the surprise of a few people, there are actually not many people in the A-level mission hall, only twenty or thirty people, all of whom are holding task lists and researching there, and they are basically the mission spokespersons of the mercenary team.
In fact, Cun Mang didn't know that most of them were small mercenary groups struggling at the bottom, and most of them were C- and B-level tasks, and A-level tasks were generally only taken by medium-sized teams. Therefore, the early saying that birds have worms to eat is not suitable for the A-class mission hall.
Although Cun Mang is already a four-star great sword master, he is still a rookie in this regard.
"It turns out that the order of receiving tasks is not determined by the order of check-in. Liu Wumo said to himself.
"I'm going to get the task sheet. Cun Mang motioned for everyone to wait for him in the rest area.
After a while, a few rookies sat together and studied it.
The task sheet includes the task name, description, location, reward, and points.
Each level of mission is also divided into five difficulty stars, with five stars being the highest.
In the end, several people studied for a long time and chose a three-star A-level mission called Xingyue Wolf Grass.
"So that's it?" Cun Mang made a final inquiry.
"The Kelly Desert is the closest to here, and don't you see, although it's a three-star mission, but the pay is about the same as a five-star mission, so let's do it, fill in the information. Liu Wumo didn't care.
But Liu Wumo knew that this task was not so simple.
Looking at the time of the task, it has been released for a few months, and it is impossible that no one will pick it up.
Either the team that took the task was wiped out, or they came back and offset the mission with mercenary points.
However, none of this is important to Liu Wumo, what matters is the eight hundred gold coins at the top of the taskbar.
This can be said to be a huge amount of money for Liu Wumo and his team, each of whom can get two hundred gold coins.
In addition, there are 1,000 mercenary points, you must know that a space ring only needs 400 mercenary points to redeem.
1,000 points can be exchanged for two, and when the time comes, you can change the couple ring, one for yourself and one for Blue Star.
Liu Wumo thought about it and smiled treacherously.
I don't know why, when Cun Mang saw Liu Wumo smiling now, he shivered all over his body.
"Rub something, hurry up and write. Liu Wumo noticed that Cun Mang was looking at him, and immediately fiercely attacked Cun Mang, probably afraid that he would find out his intentions.
Cun Mang was helpless, so he had to shake his head and bow his head to write the application form.
"Your regiment has just been established, and you are going to take over the task of Xingyue Wolf Grass?"
The little girl who was sitting at the A-level mission window for reception, took the application form handed over by Cun Mang, glanced at Cun Mang with his spare eyes, and then looked at the four-star Great Sword Master Medal on his chest.
Cun Mang had expected the reception to be surprised, but Cun Mang did not speak, and pretended to be forced there expressionlessly.
The receiving chick shook her head, looked down at the team's information again, and it turned out that it was like this, a four-star great sword master, a three-star high priest, and two magic apprentices. The configuration of this small team is not bad, but unfortunately, if you think that you can pick the Star Moon Wolf Grass in this way, you will overestimate your own team, and a four-star great swordsman should not even have this common sense.
The reception chick originally wanted to remind Cun Mang, but seeing Cun Mang's pretending attitude, it was better to forget it.
So he bowed his head to go through the task procedures for Cunmang.
And Cun Mang didn't know that the Starmoon Wolf Grass mission had even caused headaches for many medium-sized mercenary groups.
It's nominally a three-star mission, but the actual task difficulty has reached a five-star difficulty.
Because the star and moon wolf grass grows in the Kelly Desert not far from the red city, and the star and moon wolf grass is extremely rare, it is usually like an ordinary weed and cannot be found, only at night, the time when the moon appears will be slightly bright for an hour, and the time of light is not fixed.
It doesn't seem to be difficult, but I don't know that the reason why it is called wolf grass is because it grows in the center of the territory of Paul, a palace-level demonic beast with the strength of a sword saint.
