Chapter 37: Three Tasks
Got the gloves he built from Andrew's shop, Andrew's craftsmanship was very good, because Caleb spent a lot of money, and Andrew was not stingy, and took out the best fine iron in the store to create a pair of gloves for Ena.
Ena liked it very much, and made a few gestures with her gloves, and her whirring boxing style looked powerful.
Andrew nodded with satisfaction, his craft was really good.
"How's that, little girl, it's going to work."
Ena put away her stance and saluted Andrew with a fist.
"The owner's craftsmanship is really good, the weight is just right, I am very satisfied."
Andrew laughed when he heard this, and being able to create a satisfying weapon is the best achievement for a blacksmith.
Saying goodbye to Andrew, Caleb and Ena prepare to go to the Adventurers' Guild to pick up a mission and leave the city.
In the adventurer's guild hall, Alec's guild layout is similar to that of Grey Wood, the difference is that it is a little bigger, and there are 5 reception desks.
As soon as he entered the guild, Caleb walked straight to the quest bulletin board, he wanted to see if there were any quests to pick up, and Les, who had been waiting in the guild hall, also found the person he had been waiting for.
"Caleb! Caleb! Thank goodness you're not gone yet. β
As soon as Caleb appeared, it was as if Les had found a lifesaver.
When he first came to Alec, he heard the news of the accident of the Flying Feather Adventure Group, and Les was like a lightning strike.
Doris's niece is his only relative in the world, he doesn't have much talent of his own, he still lives to be a high-level warrior at the age of 40, and he has never been married.
In addition, his brother and sister-in-law died in an accident, leaving 5-year-old Dores behind, for him, Dores has long been like his daughter.
She is also very competitive, becoming a bronze warrior at the age of 18, and Les knows that her adventure party will limit Doris's growth, so she also agrees to Doris's long-term request to let her inherit the name of her father's flying feather adventure group and go out on her own.
Les was so remorseful that if she hadn't acceded to Doris's request, perhaps Dorith wouldn't have died, and he returned to the hotel in a daze.
Until late at night, a notice came from the guild that Dores sent a message for help, and he hurried over to find a team that could rescue Dores four times, but unfortunately the rumors on the second floor of the dungeon made these people dare not take risks.
Rice was desperate, and even if he took out all his assets, there was no team to come to the rescue.
He hated himself, why was he such a waste, he couldn't even rescue his relatives, he had already accepted the death of his relatives, why did he let himself go through it again, but this time it was because of his own incompetence that he killed his relatives with his own hands.
"Leader, let's ask Mr. Caleb for help, he is so strong, he must be an A-level adventurer, and he will definitely help us."
In the end, Leo from the team reminded him, and Leo's words were like a big stick, instantly waking up Les, and his eyes lit up.
'Yes, Brother Caleb, ask Brother Caleb for help! β
"Hurry up and find out where Caleb is, he shouldn't have left here yet."
Les instructed his members to help with the search, and he himself waited for Caleb to appear in the Adventurers' Guild, they had talked before, Caleb's purpose was to come to Alec to take over the mission, and he would definitely come here.
Sure enough, after waiting all night, he finally waited for Caleb to appear, and as soon as Caleb entered the guild hall, Les rushed forward with an arrow, and he held Caleb's hand tightly, with a glint of hope on his face.
"Brother Caleb, you must help me, you are the only one in the whole city who can help me."
After saying that, Les knelt directly on the ground and held Caleb's hand.
"Brother Rice, what's wrong with you, you just say something, why are you kneeling on the ground."
Caleb hurriedly helped Les up.
"Brother Caleb, I'll make a long story short, I'm sure you already know.
The day before yesterday, I found out that the leader of the Flying Feather Adventure Party on the second floor of the dungeon was my late brother's daughter, that is, my niece, she is not dead, she used the adventurer card to send a distress message last night, she is my only relative.
I want to ask you to help me, brother, help me get my niece out, I can give you all my money, everything! Please! β
As he spoke, Rice's eyes turned red, but he held back his tears and stared at Caleb for fear that he would not agree.
Dingββ
"Trigger Mission: Rescue the Trapped: Rice's niece is trapped on the second floor of the dungeon and goes to rescue her; Bonus XP +20,000, Mall Points +10,000"
"Trigger Quest: Shake the Dungeon: The vibration of the dungeon seems to hide something, find out who is behind it, and destroy it; Reward the Insect Master's exclusive core skill "Heart of the Swarm"
"Trigger Mission: Peeping Minions: Your whereabouts have been discovered, and the minions in the shadows are waiting for an opportunity to eliminate the three pursuing squads and the main messengers behind them; Bonus XP +50000, Attribute Points +5, Skill Points +5"
Caleb's eyes widened slightly, but he didn't expect that because of Rice's words, the system would directly trigger three tasks.
Caleb did not hesitate, his mind moved, and all three tasks were taken, and the third task was obviously Ma Lan's pursuit and killing force.
Now that it has been discovered, there is no point in continuing to flee now, and only after killing the pursuers can we get out of their sight again.
He took Rice's hand with his backhand, looked at him with a determined look in his eyes, and said:
"Brother Rice, don't worry, I will definitely rescue your niece, I don't want the money, after all, we are friends."
When Les heard Caleb's words, the burden in his heart was finally put down, with Caleb's powerful combat power, the rescue operation was stable, and he didn't even want money, and the emotion in Les's heart could not be described in words.
"Brother Caleb..... No way! You must accept the money, how can I let you work so hard and have no money to take it, otherwise, you can accept this. β
Thinking of something, Les took a ring from his bosom, took Caleb's hand, and shoved it into his hand.
"Didn't you say before that you need a storage ring, this is a storage ring, although it is the lowest, but I still hope you can accept it."
Caleb looked at the ring in his hand, and finally nodded and accepted it, he really needed this ring, Ena didn't have Caleb's convenient system backpack and mall.
If she is separated from herself, she will not be able to carry much on her, and with this ring, Ena can also get a little supplies, which is also a lot easier.
"Thank you, Brother Rice, I really need this ring, so I'll take it."
Caleb is not pretentious, need is need, simple and direct.
Les finally nodded in satisfaction, and he hurriedly pulled Caleb to the reception desk, and said to the receptionist:
"Sita, I've found the person who rescued Doris, please help this person with the mission."
The receptionist, Sta, had a happy expression on her face, she was a friend of Doris, and it was great that someone was willing to take on a rescue mission.
"Okay, I'll handle it, please take out your adventurer card."
Caleb didn't think much of it, and took out his card and handed it in.
Sita checked Caleb's card and looked at the information on it.
'Caleb, the Dawn Adventure Party, seems to have heard of it somewhere.....
Sista suddenly froze, she hurriedly took out the notice from a month ago, and sure enough, it was him!
The hero who saved Grey Wood and successfully defeated Masi of a Thousand Souls as a D-class adventurer, who was rated as an A-class strength, at the age of 15, the youngest A-class adventurer in history.
Confirming that it was correct, Sita exclaimed:
"You are Lord Caleb! The one who saved the ashes... Woo! β
Silka's voice echoed throughout the hall, and Caleb hurriedly covered her mouth.
'Whatever a receptionist, she's as loud as Luna's. β
Caleb looked up at her and whispered:
"Don't make a noise."
Sita blinked, nodding busily, indicating that she understood.
Unfortunately, it was still heard by some well-intentioned people, and an ordinary adventurer sitting at the bar of the bar secretly glanced at Caleb, turned around and walked out.
In Alec's house somewhere, Maha stared out the window quietly, and for a month and a half, he had tracked down Caleb for a month and a half, and finally let him find him again.
"My lord, I have found out Caleb's whereabouts, and he is going to the dungeon to rescue Doris, the leader of the Flying Feather Adventure Regiment, and he has just taken over the task."
A figure walked in from outside the door, obviously the ordinary adventurer just now, who was actually the captain of the four teams under Maha, who was responsible for finding out information.
"Dungeons.... What a great place to go, Caleb Liccock.
You go and inform the Yin and Yin teams to go to the dungeon, and I will let him die in the mouth of the monster. β
"Yes!"
Maha learned of Caleb's whereabouts and began to gather his team to prepare for the siege of Caleb, which was also watched by a small insect on the beams of the house.
Opposite the little bug was Caleb's eyes, and he finally saw the true face of the man who was chasing him this time.
'Found you, first meeting, Mr. Killer, this time a thief.
Then it's the switch between the hunter and the prey, and you can't escape my eyes.....
From the time Caleb received the task of the system, he knew that there must be Ma Lan's people in the hall, just let the bugs probe a little, Caleb can easily find it, and he is grateful for these anxious killers.
"Brother, are we really going to the dungeon...."
In the hotel, Ena sat on the bed with her knees crossed, looking at Caleb who was about to pack her luggage with the ring, with a worried look on her face, she remembered the fear she felt last night, she didn't want to go near the dungeon at all.
Caleb took the ring and checked it, there was a 5 cubic meter in the space, enough to store a person's supplies, Caleb put down the ring in his hand, he stood up and touched Ena's hair.
"I'm sorry Ena, this time my brother broke the appointment, if Ena is afraid, it's better to let my brother go alone, put some food and clothes here, and a few Xiaomi, don't lose it."
Caleb exchanged the ring for enough food for Ena to survive for a month, a few changes of clothes, and a few mechanical bees stuffed inside, and took out a rope to thread through the ring and put it around Ena's neck.
Going to the dungeon this time is undoubtedly very dangerous, if Ena doesn't want to go, Caleb won't force Ena, he will find a safe place to settle Ena.
Hearing that Caleb was ready to act on her own, Ena objected without hesitation:
"I don't want to be separated from my brother, my brother wants to go, then I will go too!"
Ena couldn't care about being afraid, it was more frightening than the terrifying monsters in the dungeon or being separated from her brother.
She hugged Caleb tightly, as if Caleb was going to disappear in the next moment.
Caleb patted Ena on the back to calm her down, took her shoulders and met her eyes and said:
"Okay, let's act together this time, and there is news from my bugs, Ma Lan's men have discovered us, let's deal with them in the dungeon."
Ena's eyes shrank slightly, and she nodded, a hint of hatred flashed in her eyes, and a slight red light appeared in her eyes, but it was a pity that Caleb didn't notice.
He had already turned his head and continued to pack his luggage.
"Alright, Ena, let's hurry up and go, we have to enter the dungeon before those killers do."
Putting all his luggage into his backpack, Caleb picked up the map of the dungeon and looked at it, the entrance to the second floor was on the other side of the collapsed mine, the collapsed mine was lucky not to cover the entrance to the second floor, Caleb needed to circle around the mine half a circle to get close to the entrance to the second floor.
Caleb looked at the map carefully several times, and memorized the route in his mind, there seemed to be some kind of barrier in the dungeon, and the connection between the worm and Caleb was disconnected after entering the dungeon, although the bug was not dead, but could not receive the message from the bug.
The structure of the dungeon could only be found out from the map provided by the Adventurer's Guild, and Caleb retreated from the room with Ena and rushed to the entrance of the dungeon.
At the door of the hotel, a vendor watched Caleb and Ena get out of the door of the hotel and rush towards the dungeon.
Putting down the goods in his hand, he turned around and walked into the alley behind him, where an ordinary-looking adventurer was leaning against the wall, and when the peddler saw him, a flattering smile appeared on his face:
"My lord, the person you made me stare at has left, look at this ....."
The peddler gestured with a pinch of his hands.
The man glanced at the peddler indifferently, took out a gold coin from his arms, the peddler's eyes lit up a little, he looked greedily at the gold coin in the man's hand, and his breathing was a little shorter.
"Don't tell the things you are watching, you can only rot in your stomach."
The peddler nodded without hesitation when he heard the man's words, his eyes had long been attracted by the money in the man's hand, as long as he could get this money, he could continue to do business in another city.
"No problem, my lord, I promise that absolutely no one will know about it."
With a flick of his finger, the gold coin flew towards the vendor, and the hawker's eyes couldn't help but shift with the movement of the coin.
He stretched out his hands to catch the coin, but he didn't notice that the man was already holding a knife in his hand, and the vendor's face was smiling as he took the gold coin with both hands.
This was also his last smile, a bright knife light slashed through his neck, blood gushed out from his neck, and the peddler fell down with a stiff expression, and he couldn't make a sound from the cut throat, so he could only fall to the ground and stare at people.
"Only the dead can best keep secrets, don't you think?"
The man picked up the gold coin that had fallen to the ground and asked the dead vendor on the side.
Figures stepped out from the depths of the alley.
"Let's go, Master Maha and the rest of the team are already on their way to the dungeon, and it's time for us to act."
