Chapter 329: Mercenary Vouchers
While waiting for the teleportation sequence, Hu Siming told Yan Shaoou about his experience in the Bronze Dragon Tribe.
After listening to his experience and gains, Yan Shaoou understood why Hu Siming was able to get 5 contributions. The twists and turns during this period, as well as Zhu Mingcheng's indirect play of his stupidity, made Yan Shaoou couldn't help but be amazed. However, although his harvest is not as good as Hu Siming's, as a student who successfully completed the final exam, it is still extremely amazing.
More than 700 universal points, plus a cyan Elite robe, can increase intelligence and reduce mana cost by 10. In addition, coupled with the Book of Eternity and 7's energy saver, Yan Shaoou's strength has made a qualitative leap. Due to the contribution of a lot of output during the period, a lot of experience energy was also harvested, and the level jumped to more than half of level 7. Come back early for a hunt during the summer vacation, and you can upgrade to Normal-level LV8 before the start of the new school year, and you can even try to hit Normal-level LV9!
This strength is enough for him to gain a firm foothold in his sophomore year.
In the communication between the two and the planning for the new school year, the teleportation sequence of the base camp was lined up with them. At the urging of the left-behind seniors, Hu Siming hurriedly boarded the Glorious Teleportation Array. Half a minute later, four huge runes that had evolved from endless magic and symbolized the sun, moon, stars, and time quickly spun around. The power of the teleportation array tore through the space, and after ten seconds of teleportation, they were sent back to the illusory space controlled by the Academy.
In the shock of the Sky Canopy Barrier, the silver afterglow gradually dissipated. Seeing the familiar central area of the academy around them, many students showed a look of being separated from the world on their faces.
But no matter what the result is, this school year has finally come to an end at the moment.
Once the final exams are over, the students will be able to regain a short period of freedom without worrying about the Academy's scheduled exams. According to the news released before the final exam of the school year, they will be able to start their summer vacation in three days and return to the real world. This good news has made many students choose to relax and have a good drink.
As the winner who chose the difficult main line and completed it smoothly, Hu Siming and Yan Shaoou must have celebrated. After being busy and working hard for a year, no matter how strict you are with yourself on weekdays, you can always find time to take a vacation for yourself in the past day or two. In order to have a good drink, Hu Siming even spent more than a dozen generic points.
I think that at the beginning, when he first entered the school, he was a universal point that he didn't dare to waste. But now, with a lot of financial prosperity, he can also invest a little bit to improve his life.
After some heavy drinking, Hu Siming slept until dawn the next day, and then got up comfortably.
Because after the start of the new school year, you will enter the sophomore school district, and the room you live in will definitely change. Hu Siming has lived in this room for a year, and he is already a little used to it, and he is still a little reluctant to leave. After a few laps around the room, he sat down at his desk, turned on his computer and boarded the battle net.
At this moment, the Battle.net section of the freshman year has been swiped by countless students.
The final exam of the academic year, unlike any previous exam, has a crucial impact. Those who succeed can leap to the next level, and those who fail will not only gain nothing, but will also be beaten into the ranks of repeaters. It is conceivable how big the impact of gradual fermentation will be after the final exam is completely over.
For the winner of the freshman year, he will be promoted directly to the sophomore year and step into the ranks of the principals.
The losers are more miserable.
Freshmen who have not passed the final exam are better, and if there is only one layer of punishment, they can barely maintain, and they can also apply to be a teaching assistant, and there is an additional subsidy in the first half of the new semester.
For those who have been repeating for a year, but still haven't taken the exam for one reason or another, it is naturally a complete tragedy. Under the double punishment bonus, the rewards for all compulsory courses, unified examinations, etc. are only 50, but the failure penalty is doubled, and almost a slight failure of one or two games can knock them to the brink of annihilation. What awaits them is either to be driven out of the academy or dragged out of the new school year and removed from the class to work in the real world.
Not only that, but the end of an academic year also means that the identity and position of the students have changed.
Before today, the students who spoke in these freshman sections were all from the same class. But more than a month later, at the beginning of the new school year, the students will be divided into two classes by the moat of the school level: the sophomores who are high up, and the repeaters who are freshmen. Some students don't seem to realize this, but some students have already sensed the change in their status, and they have begun to talk to people who were once their companions and will soon become seniors, hoping that they will take more care of them in the future.
In those swiping messages, as long as you read carefully, you can find similar discussion posts by turning a few pages.
After looking around, Hu Siming has a comprehensive understanding of the impact of the final exam. He closed the forum page, got up and moved, and began to think about the news of returning home for the summer vacation. When he left school last semester, Hu Siming went back alone. But this time, in the face of Han Feng's possible ambush, Hu Siming decided to return with his teammates, which would be safer. For this reason, he needs to communicate with Yan Shaoou and even Su Xishui in advance.
By the way, before that, I still have a compensation that I haven't received.
What exactly that white gem was, Hu Siming still didn't know. It's just put together with the real red crystal, and the style is also somewhat similar, so it is not excluded that there is some kind of relationship. Of course, since it was forcibly taken away by the academy, it didn't mean much in the end. Hu Siming only cares about what the academy will compensate him.
After receiving the email from the college, Hu Siming got the box containing the compensation.
After opening it, Hu Siming's eyes were greeted by a familiar black card. Its full name is called the Ability Exemption Seal Card, which is the Black Card!
The start of this thing made Hu Siming a little surprised. The black card drawn last semester, after two wars, still has one chance to use it. Unexpectedly, he got another one for compensation this time, which made him feel a little pity. Take it and sell it, it's a little reluctant, but if you keep it for yourself, you may not be able to use it.
To put it bluntly, this black card is useless when it reaches the hero level after all. It is more precious for freshmen, but the price is not necessarily very high. Hu Siming would rather compensate himself for something else, so as to save himself hesitation.
After thinking about it for a moment, he finally decided to keep it for now. After all, this time back to the real world, it is possible to clash with Han Feng. The previous black card only had one chance to be exempted, which was a bit uninsured.
After putting away the black card, Hu Siming checked the second piece of compensation.
Unexpectedly, this is a voucher similar to a sticky note, which reads: Go to the mercenary camp of the academy and redeem a mercenary for free.
"Mercenary camp?"
In the functional buildings of the central area of the college, there is indeed its existence. However, at this stage, the attention of the freshmen is mainly on the blacksmith shop, the secret sanctuary, and the alchemy room. This mercenary camp, which is not yet open to freshmen, is really not well known to freshmen.
Is the so-called "generous" remuneration of the college just a dispensable black card, plus such a voucher?
Hu Siming was a little suspicious in his heart, but he still got up and came to the mercenary camp as written on the huàn coupon. Since the final exam has only been completed, the number of students in the functional area of the college is really quite large, and most of them use the harvest to redeem and strengthen themselves. However, only in front of the relatively high-end mercenary camp, there are very few seniors who enter and leave.
Surveying the brown-roofed square camp, Hu Siming strolled in.
Normally, this is not open to first-year students. But Hu Siming showed the voucher for redeeming huàn, so he was naturally qualified to browse the list of redeeming huàn. Each page of this list shows twenty different mercenaries, and there are at least a dozen pages in total, which is obviously enough to choose from. It's just that, limited to the level of huàn coupons, coupled with Hu Siming's own factors, the mercenaries he can choose to redeem huàn are only the first two pages.
The back is a long dozen pages of selection, all gray.
At first, Hu Siming didn't pay much attention to it, and casually browsed the normal price of huàn, and his eyes widened at that time. He found that even the cheapest mercenaries in it cost one or two thousand universal points, and even needed Radiant coinage. Turning to the second page, I saw those mercenaries with relatively strong strength and practical skills, and the prices were even higher than imagined, even comparable to a superb treasure!
"How can it be so high?"
Hu Siming was a little puzzled, and after looking at it carefully for a while, he realized that these mercenaries were not the same thing as the common summoning wood carvings and scrolls among the students. The latter is just a one-time item that will automatically disappear when the duration is up. Mercenaries, on the other hand, can be summoned to help fight an unlimited number of times as long as they don't die.
Realizing this, Hu Siming knew the value of his huàn voucher.
He put away a little nonchalantness and looked at the list of huàns one by one. Those with lower strength and cheap employment in front of them are definitely not considered. After scanning it, Hu Siming focused his attention on the mercenaries on the second page. Soon, his gaze stayed on the Terran priest.
【Horn of the Heart】
A horn full of divine power, when sounded, can summon a Terran priest to help you fight.
