Chapter 197: I Don't Want to Go Back to the Dormitory Tonight
Zhong Sanshui didn't wear much gorgeous, just civilian clothes, but it could be seen that it was carefully matched, and with his already good appearance, the whole person looked more and more pretty. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Seeing Long Tianxiang coming, she greeted with a smile: "Get in the car." ”
The two sat down, Zhong Sanshui seemed to have told the coachman his destination, and the coachman set off directly.
Zhong Sanshui seemed to have a change in his mentality, and quickly accosted Long Tianxiang: "Why did you choose this time to register as a mercenary?"
Long Tianxiang didn't understand what Zhong Sanshui meant, and said nonsense hesitantly: "This ...... Don't you have time? ”
"That's not what I meant. I mean, if you want to do a mercenary mission, why don't you sign up sooner?"
"Experience?" Long Tianxiang didn't understand what this meant.
Zhong Sanshui said a little strangely: "Didn't you register as a mercenary to actually train your skills?
Long Tianxiang felt that the two of them seemed to have some misalignment in their thinking, so he could only try to explain: "The main thing is not to make money, I just want to get information from the mercenary union." ”
"Get information, and we'll have it in the inner courtyard of our academy too?"
"Ah...... I'm not going to go into the inner courtyard. ”
Zhong Sanshui was stunned for a moment and said, "Then ...... you participate in the trials?"
"Isn't this forced by Teacher Feng. Long Tianxiang said. His relationship with Feng Xian'er is not public, so he still calls Feng Xian'er Teacher Feng in front of people.
Zhong Sanshui was stunned for a long time, and Fang was a little unacceptably said: "But ...... Why? The conditions in the inner court must be much better than being a mercenary. In addition to all kinds of cultivation resources, you can also find a satisfactory team, and it will be safer to carry out tasks?"
Long Tianxiang said: "I...... Actually, I don't want to do a task, I just want to improve my cultivation, I'm a full-system mage, and the resources of the inner courtyard definitely don't have anything I can use, so now the main thing I want to do is to find the kind of artifact that was born two years ago. As you know, the red ball we encountered made me improve my cultivation. ”
After he roughly explained, after a while, he heard Zhong San's somewhat low voice: "That means that you are going to leave after the tryouts?"
"Ah...... Be. Long Tianxiang is exactly what he intended.
"Oh. Zhong Sanshui replied like this, and did not speak again for a while.
After a while, Long Tianxiang asked, "What's the use of you letting me get the graduation certificate of the outer courtyard?"
Zhong Sanshui didn't answer, Long Tianxiang had to ask again, and only then did she react, an embarrassed smile appeared on her somewhat depressed face, and hurriedly said, "I'm sorry, I'm distracted." The graduation certificate is used for registration," she paused, "I originally told you to introduce you to the Mercenary Guild, you can tell me how much you know first, and I will introduce you." ”
Long Tianxiang thought for a while and said, "It's just that after paying some money to register as a mercenary, you can take the task there, and then ...... It's gone. ”
Zhong Sanshui couldn't help but chuckle and said, "What do you call understanding, you just haven't understood it at all." ”
Long Tianxiang said in his heart: Isn't this just going to the place to ask again, of course I don't know if you ask me now. There was no speech.
Zhong Sanshui then introduced: "The mercenary union is an organization established by mercenaries themselves, which is convenient for mercenaries to take tasks and protect the rights and interests of mercenaries. In Pangya and Allman, they have their own mercenary unions, and the two countries have been relatively peaceful in the past ten years, so the mercenary unions of the two countries have also cooperated, mainly to share mission information, and you can also receive the tasks issued by Allman's people in Panya.
The mercenary unions in both countries are organized by larger mercenary groups. Panya's mercenary union was organized by a mercenary group called Panlong. They are responsible for maintaining the normal functioning of the mercenary union while taking a cut of each commission.
Specifically, whether it is a single mercenary or a mercenary group, it is divided into four levels: gold, silver, copper, and iron, and in each level, it is divided into three sub-levels: fine, pure, and miscellaneous. If you want to level up, you need to do enough tasks and pass the level assessment set by the mercenary guild.
The level is set to facilitate the delegation and acceptance of tasks. For the task released by the client, the mercenary union will give a suggestion level and number of people according to the difficulty of the task, and only if the conditions are higher than the suggestion, you can accept the task, so as to achieve the success rate of the task.
Of course, the client can also ask which level of mercenary to do his task, if so, then the suggestion is just a suggestion, and there is no longer a mandatory effect, as long as you meet the requirements of the principal, you can accept the task.
There is also a situation where the task does not designate a certain person or a certain mercenary group, such as collecting a large number of certain materials, which can be done by anyone. Such information will be posted on the bulletin board of the mercenary union, and when the task is completed, the information will be removed.
Let you get the Outer Court graduation certificate, because this is a proof of your strength, and the mercenary union also recognizes this, with it, you can not do iron-level tasks that are not difficult, you don't have to pass the bronze-level assessment, and you can start directly from the bronze-level mercenary. ”
Long Tianxiang listened to it for a long time, and felt that the last paragraph was useful, so he sighed and didn't speak.
Zhong Sanshui said for a long time, and after waiting for a long time, Long Tianxiang couldn't help but say with an oh word: "You didn't listen, but what did you say." ”
What to say?
Long Tianxiang thought for a moment and said, "Why do you want to register as a mercenary." ”
Zhong Sanshui was obviously stunned, and his voice lowered: "I...... I'm not here for the sake of experience, the academy's actual combat classes are just courses after all. ”
Long Tianxiang sighed, and there was no sound again. He could see that Zhong Sanshui seemed to have something on his mind, but he was not the one who would take the initiative to ask about such a thing.
But Zhong Sanshui continued to say to himself: "Actually...... That's not what I had in mind either. It was Peicai who said that he wanted to take on some mercenary tasks, and he also practiced for the inner court tasks in the future, so I registered the mercenary status with him. Results ......"
Zhong Sanshui said, his eyes were lowered, his face was gloomy, and he seemed to have something sad.
"The result?" Long Tianxiang still has the consciousness to answer the phone.
Zhong Sanshui was silent for a while before he continued: "As a result, once, we met the man in black and did a mission with her, and I saw that Pei Cai couldn't forget her after all. Later, Peicai and I said that I didn't want to do the task anymore, but he gave up after persuasion and did it himself...... I don't know if I ran into the man in black again. ”
Zhong Sanshui smiled a little self-deprecatingly, and said, "You said that I was very useless, I obviously didn't want to meet the woman in black again, but I quit and didn't do the task by myself, and I didn't even dare to tell him what I thought...... Heh, isn't that as good as when I first started? ”
In the past two years, Long Tianxiang has lived in a simple place, and when he met Li Peicai and Zhong Sanshui, he avoided walking and never spoke at all, but now he met every two years and chatted a few words, but Zhong Sanshui confided in such a heart.
Although Long Tianxiang was forced to kneel by Li Peicai because of Zhong Sanshui two years ago, he really didn't blame her much in his heart, and only considered himself unlucky. Two years have passed, and knowing Zhong Sanshui's kind and cute side, he has a good impression of her, so he has the mind to enlighten her.
He thought for a moment and said, "Actually...... The man in black may be from the palace. ”
Zhong Sanshui was stunned and looked at him.
Long Tianxiang continued: "Let's find that artifact together, and finally ...... I heard about the palace. So the man in black should be doing things for the palace, that's why Li Peicai treats her differently, I don't think you...... Thinking too much?"
Zhong Sanshui was stunned for a while, but said, "How did you hear that she is from the palace?"
"I ...... This one...... I heard it by chance. Long Tianxiang said vaguely.
"Is there anything I can't know?" Zhong Sanshui asked directly.
"Ah...... Be. Long Tianxiang simply admitted.
“...... Oh. Zhong Sanshui's expression darkened again and he stopped talking.
Long Tianxiang originally wanted to talk about the man in black coming to his dormitory, but seeing that Zhong Sanshui was so serious, he didn't want to say it again, for fear of exposing himself too much and letting Zhong Sanshui guess something.
At this time, the carriage came to a halt. The two got out of the car, and there was a large bungalow in front of them, and the mercenary union was written, and the small word Lunto branch office.
Everything is as Zhong Sanshui said, Long Tianxiang entered this big bungalow, took out his graduation certificate from the outer courtyard, and paid another fifty gold coins, he became a miscellaneous copper mercenary, and he had to pay a monthly membership fee of one gold coin in the future, otherwise the mercenary status would be invalid and he would need to register again.
After all the formalities were completed, the two came out, and the sky was already dark, so Zhong Sanshui called the coachman who had been waiting outside and went directly to a restaurant - the coachman didn't dare not wait, but Zhong Sanshui showed him the family crest indicating the status of the nobleman.
When he arrived at the place to eat, he finished ordering things, and then finished serving things, but Zhong Sanshui kept his head down and didn't move his chopsticks, so that Long Tianxiang was embarrassed to eat first.
After a long time, she suddenly said solemnly and unnaturally: "Tianxiang, I have something I must let you know. ”
"Ah...... You said. ”
"Two years ago, I promised you and Pei Cai to explain you and me well, but I didn't. I...... I didn't understand your mind at the time, and I was so indifferent to me that you were angry, so when Pei Cai looked down on your strength, he said something to defend you, causing him to let you fight the rock scalper alone, and finally find you to duel, and ...... There is such a thing, actually...... Peicai is not a bully.
So, it's all because of me, I should have confessed all this to you, but I haven't been able to muster up the courage, I ...... I'm afraid you're blaming me.
I'm so sorry that you just wanted to learn magic in peace, but I misunderstood and caused that to happen to you, I'm really sorry! I beg your forgiveness, and I'm willing to make any amends for that!"
Zhong Sanshui lowered his head and blushed, but said hurriedly.
Oh, that's an apology. Long Tianxiang thought in his heart, smiled, and said, "It's okay, after all, it's been so long." ”
Zhong Sanshui raised his head, looked at Long Tianxiang expectantly with a pair of bright eyes, and said, "Then are you willing to forgive me?"
Long Tianxiang froze for a moment before he said, "Uh...... Oh, forgive ......" he was thinking in his heart, let him forgive a nobleman, he is really a big face.
Zhong Sanshui smiled happily and said, "Then we will still be friends in the future......" She said happily, but her voice lowered until she disappeared, and said for a while: "But you are about to leave." ”
Long Tianxiang wanted to leave here, which would not be changed no matter what, so he didn't speak and took a sip of tea.
There was silence again, but the difference was that Zhong Sanshui picked up the chopsticks in silence. Long Tianxiang also hurried to eat.
Although Long Tianxiang is full of every meal now, the habits left by the orphan are generally not willing to eat well. So in the face of this table of exquisite meals, it is still quite appetizing.
After a while, Zhong Sanshui seemed to have adjusted his mentality, and said with a smile: "Speaking of which, you are really bold." ”
Long Tianxiang looked at Zhong Sanshui and waited for the follow-up.
"When we went to the forest in the west of the city, I was scared like that when a skeleton appeared in front of me, but you still wanted to tell me about the soul fire, and now that you think about it, you are too coarse. ”
This touched Long Tianxiang's sadness. The master pretended to be a ghost and scary, not so that he could get the artifact, but in the end he gave it to the man in black so easily. Although it was true that the gap in strength was too big at that time, when he thought about it after the skeleton disappeared, he couldn't help but feel a little regretful and self-blame.
So he smiled a little reluctantly and said, "It's just that it's useless to be bold, and I didn't get the artifact in the end." ”
Zhong Sanshui couldn't help laughing and said, "Do you regret it now? ”
She was joking, Long Tianxiang was leaving soon, she wanted to leave some laughter at the end, but to her surprise, Long Tianxiang sighed lightly and said, "Yes, I regret it a little." ”
Zhong Sanshui was stunned and said, "What's wrong?"
Long Tianxiang reacted and hurriedly said, "It's nothing." ”
Although Zhong Sanshui couldn't guess the reason for Long Tianxiang's strange expression, he could already see that he didn't seem to want to mention this matter, so he thoughtfully stopped talking about it and talked about other things.
Both of them are mages and both study magic medicine, so apart from the brief intersection two years ago, they naturally have a lot in common. Although Long Tianxiang is still not talkative, he is not as wooden as before, and he has a lot of conversations with Zhong Sanshui, but the topic is always brought up by Zhong Sanshui.
But the conversation did start talking. After chatting at this table, the two chatted with some interest, finished eating, and talked for a long time before burying the order and going out to the restaurant.
This time it was a long time, Zhong Sanshui didn't let the original coachman wait, and now he had to tell the restaurant staff to call a carriage. The carriage didn't come for a while, and the two stood at the door and waited.
At this moment, it was completely dark, and the evening breeze blew away the faint smell of wine, which was quite cool, and the two enjoyed it quietly. Long Tianxiang suddenly remembered the water incarnation, and felt that he was already familiar with Zhong Sanshui, so he had no scruples, and turned his head to ask, but saw Zhong Sanshui staring at a certain place.
He couldn't help but swallow his words for a moment.
After a while, the carriage stopped in front of the two, and when Long Tianxiang was about to go up, Zhong Sanshui suddenly held his hand.
Long Tianxiang turned his head in confusion, but found that Zhong Sanshui was still with his head down, unable to see his expression, and could only hear her voice faintly: "I'm ...... tonight I don't want to go back to the dorm. (To be continued.) )
