Chapter 15: Arktown

As mentioned in the previous chapter, Professor Kate is ready to officially set off with her three students on the road to the Magical Forest.

In the morning, Alice and the others went to Filly's Tavern for lunch, and Carlin actually showed his rare gentlemanly demeanor and paid the bill with the crystal card his father gave him. When they had finished eating, Anne was already waiting for the three of them at the door of the tavern.

"Come on, I've been waiting for you for a long time, Kate told me about you, I can't accompany you with Frost Moon for a few days, let's go to the shopping street to buy some supplies." ”

Anne used the Red Lotus III to take the three elves to the shopping area of the City of the Moonshadow, the Garden Square.

"Pick what you want to buy, I'll pay for it. ”

When Yulia heard Annie's words, she immediately pulled Alice and walked towards a clothing store called Crescent Tailor's Shop.

"It's tiring to buy clothes with little girls. ”

Alice lamented that she accompanied Yulia to try on clothes for a long time, almost turning the whole store upside down, and only picked two sets in the end. The following afternoon, Alice bought some bread, fruit, and drinks at the tavern in Garden Square. In the little satchel that Kate gave them. Carlin bought some tents, and bedding. Yulia bought some cooking utensils. Then I went back and packed my bags.

The next morning, Professor Kate was waiting for them at the training ground, and Professor Kate was wearing a light leather armor today. The perfect figure looms under the light armor, and two swords, one long and one short, are pinned to their waists. As soon as he walked out of the gate of Ketra Academy, Professor Kate lifted the armor on his left hand, and a black rune appeared on Professor Kate's wrist.

"Ruby, come out. ”

After speaking, Professor Kate's right hand pressed on the ground, and in an instant, a huge red magic array appeared in the open space in front of him, and with a loud dragon groan, a giant dragon with a red body came out of the magic array. Where Ruby has no scales, it's covered in shiny silver armor. (Note that it's a dragon, the kind with wings and limbs.) Ruby, who looked very powerful, rubbed her head affectionately against Kate's face, and Kate scratched Ruby's chin with her hand, and Ruby let out a very comfortable moan.

"Ruby, take us to Arktown. ”

Ruby lay down and walked out of her broad back.

"Come on, classmates. ”

Professor Kate sat on Ruby's long neck, and Alice and the three of them sat on Ruby's back. There was another loud dragon roar, and Ruby took off slowly, unexpectedly, Ruby's huge body flew up but very steadily. With the sound of the wind, Ruby and the four elves gradually flew into the clouds.

"Is the scenery beautiful?"

The white clouds stretched as far as cotton could see, and Kate looked back to the three children.

"It's beautiful, it's the first time I've ever flown this high. ”

Yulia looked excited at the beautiful clouds.

"yes, it's the first time I've seen it in my life. One day, I will become a dragon knight like the professor. ”

Carlin was also excited. Alice just watched silently, the corners of her mouth turned up, revealing a hint of a smile. Although it is not unusual for Alice to have been on an airplane, it is the first time that she has stood on the back of a dragon and watched the beautiful scenery with the wind blowing. Once again, she firmly believes that this is the world she is supposed to be. The dragon flies happily in the wind, and the loud dragon chant is like a beautiful piece of music.

Along the way, Kate tells the three little ones about her plans for the trip.

"This time, let's go to Ark Town next to the Forest of Magic to see if there is any mission to hunt monsters. Let's set up a waypoint next to the town with a teleportation scroll, and if there's any danger, just crush it and get back here. ”

Kate gave each of them a magic scroll.

"Also, this is a magic locator, it can detect large demonic beasts within two hundred meters, the green ones are low-priced demonic beasts, you can use them to practice first, the blue ones are the mid-level demonic beasts, the red ones are the high-level demonic beasts, you are not their opponents yet, run after encountering them, or hide, there is a special hidden moon cloak for the elven troops. Wear it and stand in the shadows and you can become transparent, and ordinary monsters can't detect you. But keep in mind that activating the stealth function on the cloak requires three seconds of preparation time and cannot be moved. If the Monster can spot you, run away immediately, don't hesitate. The red button next to it is the distress button, just press it, and I can receive your distress signal here. ”

Kate gave each of them a magic locator and a cloak.

"Thank you, Professor Kate. ”

"Okay, there's nothing more to explain, take a good look at the combat tutorial I gave you, I don't want to teach you in a uniform way, I hope you can have your own ideas, work hard, I will be responsible for keeping you safe." In addition, there is also a method of cultivating anger in the tutorial, so you can practice more by yourself, okay, we will reach the destination in front, and we will land first. ”

Ruby landed in a clearing 200 meters north of the town.

"Good work, Ruby, go back. ”

Ruby nodded, disappearing into the magic circle on the ground. Kate took Alice and the three of them on foot to Arktown. The people in the town are very mixed, and all kinds of people are everywhere. In the center of the town stood a spire nearly 100 meters high, and at the top of the tower there was a magic gem floating in the air, and directly above the gem, a transparent magic cover was upside down above the entire town.

"There are a lot of people here, don't run around, follow me, let's go to the mercenary mission agency first and see what tasks are there to make money." ”

"Yes, Professor Kate. ”

The three little ones replied, and Kate took the three little ones to the center of the town. A hexagonal signboard is placed at the entrance of a strangely shaped building, written in Elven and Terran scripts, Arktown Adventurer's Guild Mercenary Mission Center. Walk into the lobby of the Mercenary Mission Center, the interior of the hall is divided into five passages with metal railings, and at the end of the passage there is a bar counter across the middle of the hall. At the end of each aisle there is a receptionist, and directly above the bar is a huge screen made of crystals. It reads a large line of mercenary missions. It says the difficulty of the task, the time it was completed, the goal of the mission, and the amount of rewards.

Kate walked into the mission hall with three elves, all of whom looked mysterious about hiding under the cloak of the Moon Shadow. Kate said as she walked up to a receptionist.

"Are there any S-rank missions this week? or missions with a minimum bonus of 1000 Crystals. ”

"Yes, but are you sure you want to pick it up?"

OK.

"Okay, then please pay a deposit of 100 gold coins and show me your mercenary certificate. ”

Kate paid 100 gold and pulled out a golden badge. The receptionist placed the gold badge into the recess on the table. Immediately after that, a message appeared on the crystal screen in front of him.

Mercenary name: Kate Irene.

Mercenary Level: S Rank.

Number of quests completed: 16 times for S level, 106 times for A level, 30 times for B level, 22 times for C level, 6 times for D level.

"Oh my God, you're the Special Mercenary Her Excellency Kate Erin, and welcome to the Arktown Mercenary Mission Center. We currently have an S-Rank quest here that rewards 2200 Crystal Coins, which is limited to 12 months to complete, and the goal of the quest is the black dragon Yades in the Forest of Magic. Is that acceptable to you? ”

Hearing Professor Kate's name, the mercenaries who took over the task next to him all looked at Professor Kate with a look of admiration.

"Yes. ”

"Okay, I'll help you with the task acceptance procedures. ”

Just as Kate took the mission, an announcement appeared in the sky above the mercenary hall.

"The S-Rank quest Black Dragon Yades has been claimed, and it will not be accepted until the next 12 months or until the quest is dead. ”

The mercenaries in Arktown were boiling.

"I heard that someone took on an S-class mission. ”

A Terran Great Khan said to his companion.

"Who, I heard that 3 people have died in this S-class mission. ”

His companion replied.

"It's none of your business, it's not you who takes the task, and it's not your turn to die. ”

The Great Khan instantly lost interest in who was on the task. Besides, Kate walked out of the mercenary hall after taking the task, and walked with the three little ones like the Forest of Magic. (Alice, what will happen to them in the Forest of Magic?, if you know, please pay attention to Chapter 16 of the Legend of the Moon Warriors.) )
