"We're going to pick up the mission, or we'll starve to death in Alder. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"

A day ago, Nicole had said this to Ian in a righteous way. The corners of Ian's mouth twitched, and on the day Nicole went on the street, she had spent almost all the remaining gold coins and bought some strange things, which made it difficult for them to even eat now.

Forced into desperation, Ian and Nicole could only go to the Alder branch in the hall. The iconic Thorn Flower banner flutters high in the sky above Alder, and the Hall Alder branch can see its location from anywhere in the city.

Like the Radville branch, the Alder branch is a small two-story building, but the facilities inside are much more luxurious than those of Radville. When you step into the house, you can see the giant flowers carved on the left and right walls - thorn flowers and sunflowers. In the center is an oil painting, which is a bird's-eye view of a city, and the main color of the oil painting is gray, like a kind of metal. Ian looked twice before he recognized that it was Alder on the painting.

"Alchemy City. Nicole whispered in Ian's ear, "Seriously, my only wish now is to have my own house in Alchemy City, not the one your father left behind, of course." ”

"I remember you said before that you wanted to be a great hunter. ”

"Yes, will a great hunter have no money to spend?" said Nicole of course, "I had money at that time, and I didn't want to buy a few sets and buy a few sets." One for eating, one for bathing, and one for sleeping!"

"In fact, you just have to buy one set. ”

"Why?"

"It's used to sleep, and then dreaming, and in the dream you want to buy a few sets, buy a few sets, and buy the whole empire. ”

......

The two quarreled all the way to the front desk, and the reception at the front desk was a very beautiful girl. Ian pushed Nicole away, walked up to the beautiful girl, and smiled slightly: "Hello, we are here to take the mission, this is my hunter card." ”

Nicole vomited indignantly in the back. The beautiful girl, on the other hand, was a little surprised, she smiled at Ian, showing a mouthful of white teeth: "May I ask you, sir, is it your first time to come to Alder to take over the mission?"

"Uh, why do you ask. ”

"Because the tasks of the junior hunters are all hung on the task board on the left-hand side. The pretty girl raised her hand and pointed to a wooden board on the right, and said with a smile, "You just need to choose a task on it, and then come to me to register and pay a deposit." ”

"Uh, okay. Ian scratched his head in embarrassment.

"Also, it's not impossible to come directly to the front desk and ask for a task. The pretty girl added, "As long as you are a high-level hunter in the hall, you can come directly to the front desk to ask, because some tasks will not be hung on the task board." As for you, I'm afraid not. ”

Ian's face was even more unbearable, and after he answered a sentence hesitantly, he pulled Nicole, who was already holding her stomach with a smile behind him, and ran to the side of the task board on the side.

"Hahahaha, I really laughed to death. Nicole breathlessly said, "You still think this is a small city, come on, this is Alder." How rare do you think that junior hunter certificate is, the intermediate and senior hunters here must be all over the place. ”

"How do I know. Ian was depressed, and then he turned his head to look around, and found that there was no one else in the empty lobby except for the beautiful girl sitting at the front desk, and he was relieved, "It's okay, it's okay, it's not seen by anyone else." ”

"It's strange to say. Nicole asked with some confusion, "It's Alder here, I can't see any other colleagues, it stands to reason that a big city like Alder close to a volcano should be very popular with hunters." ”

Ian shook his head in disagreement, then turned his gaze to the task board. There are dozens of pieces of parchment plastered on the board, some of which are still brand new, while others look like they might fall off at any moment. Ian looked closer, and found that the old parchment had all been written from a long, long time ago, and the oldest was fifty years ago.

"Strange, why is there such a long time ago, and no one has taken it?" asked Nicole.

At this time, a male voice suddenly came from behind them: "Some tasks are not answered, and some tasks are hunters who have taken the task and never returned." ”

The two were startled and hurriedly turned around to find a teenager about their age standing behind them. The boy wore a spotless white robe, like a church father. The long hair of the shawl was black and shiny, and then the eyes were like a pair of precious black pearls.

Ian was amazed, they had looked around before, and there was no one of them. But this person suddenly appeared behind them, and Ian and Nicole didn't even notice it, like ghosts.

Ian then noticed that the boy was carrying a long sword and a short sword. Both swords are inlaid with a crystal clear ruby on the hilt.

Gemstones set on the hilt of the sword, this is not the first time Ian has seen it. While in the snowy mountains, Sika and Messiah and her brother Kyomen Stuart all had such a sword, and Sika gave it to Ian, but Ian lost it while climbing the ancient tree. However, he also carefully examined the gems on the sword, and it was sure that it was worth a lot.

Ian guessed that the young man in front of him, like the Messiah, was from the imperial capital.

Nicole didn't think as much as Ian, she just asked curiously, "How did you know?"

"It's common sense, and the hall can almost say that it doesn't refuse to come to the task, as long as it's not too much. The young man in white spoke, his voice as cold as ice, "So any task may be hung on the task board of the hall, but some tasks with high difficulty and low remuneration will not be willing to be accepted by hunters, so it will always be posted on it, unless someone takes it and completes it, or the employer cancels the task, it will not be automatically revoked." ”

The young man paused and continued: "Also, the hunter who took this task did not come back in the end, and after a certain period of time, the hall will re-release a copy of it." So, the quest you just saw either hasn't been picked up or never been completed by a hunter. ”

Nicole nodded as if she didn't understand, and then smiled sweetly at the boy: "Oh, then I know, thank you." ”

The young man was suddenly stunned, and an imperceptible red cloud flashed across his face.
