When Herman arrived, Jonas and Claire were being questioned by a young man.

This man's name was Hawkins, although he was young, but he was the leader of the fifth squadron of the third brigade, not only was he strong, but also had outstanding achievements, and the older Jonas was as cramped as a recruit in front of him.

Jonas reported the situation that day, Hawkins found that this was no different from the war report written by the other party, he couldn't help but feel a little lost, he looked at the wizard on the side, the two obviously had a friendship, and his tone was also very casual: "It seems that I thought too much, Captain Jonas's report was very detailed." ”

Claire Holt, a blonde, brown-eyed, fair-skinned girl, curled up in her chair at the moment and replied lazily, "Hehe, Jonas has always been meticulous in his work, but why did it take so long to come this time, most of those guys may have run into the Dark Mountains." ”

Hawkins wanted to speak and stopped, and said indifferently: "Some things have been delayed, but they can't run." After a pause, he added, "Things have changed a little in the vicinity of Konesga, and if things go well, you won't be able to see me again for the next two years." ”

Hearing this, Claire changed her laziness, sat up straight, her beautiful brown eyes turned for a moment, and asked, "Personnel change or external things?" ”

"It's a bit of both."

Hawkins's vagueness annoyed Claire a little, but she also knew that the other party didn't explain it because Jonas was there, so she had to be patiently curious.

Then Hawkins said, "I know you really want to get promoted, so I thought of you this time when there was something good." In this combat mission, would you like to be a wizard with the third squadron? ”

"Wizard on the side?" Claire sat up and frowned, "Isn't every squadron in your patrol equipped with a wizard?" Besides, I'm just a little awakened, how can I compare to the gifted adults? ”

Hawkins listened to Claire's words and secretly regretted that if Claire hadn't refused to become a disciple of Mentor Finn, she would have been a famous genius witch in the Wizarding Society. However, Hawkins also looked down on people who gave their bodies for strength, and he smiled undiminishedly: "You are not an ordinary awakened person...... Usually I don't bother you, but unfortunately, we found out that the lair of this group of werewolf tribes is very likely to be in the forsaken land, you know, that ghost place is forbidden magic, and only a very small number of non-mainstream witchcraft can take effect. ”

Saying that, he put his hand on his forehead with a headache and said, "It's a pity that cultivating witchcraft really requires talent, and there are not many low-level wizards in the entire wizarding association who are qualified to come into contact with them, let alone successfully cultivate." ”

Claire's face appeared self-satisfied: "Of course, magic is a blessing from the gods, but it is just a rubbing of the law, as long as you are not a fool, you can master it; Witchcraft is a unique creation of a wizard, and only the resonance of the spirit will take effect. ”

"So......" Hawkins put down his hand, looking sincere, "Claire, I know you have mastered a healing sorcery, help me, I have to be responsible for my brothers." ”

"For the sake of years of friendship."

Claire straightened her body and didn't answer immediately, but asked, "What about the pay?" You don't need to be reminded of the danger of the Forsaken Lands, do I? The sorcery I have mastered is not lethal, and once I enter it, I will face much greater danger than you, so how much are you going to pay me? ”

As soon as he heard the joke, Hawkins' eyes lit up, and he quickly stretched out a finger and said at the same time: "Don't worry, I will send someone to protect you." ”

"A thousand?" Claire was overjoyed and was ready to agree, but she suddenly caught a glimpse of the enchanted sword on Hawkins' waist, and immediately suppressed her joy, pretending not to care, and pouted, "This level of reward is not worth the risk of me." ”

Not satisfied with a thousand?

Jonas's eyes widened on the side, his monthly salary was only three thousand, and this mission was directly one-third of his salary. Well, wizards have a big appetite.

But Hawkins had a request for help, so he had to continue to increase the weight, "Two thousand, this is the bottom line, and Clawrence usually has this price." "Clawrence is the wizard of the third squadron, and his strength is very good, but this time they are going to the forsaken land, unless they master witchcraft and fighting spirit, no matter how strong the wizard is, he will lose his combat effectiveness in an instant.

And inside, many potions will also fail, and once injured, it will become extremely troublesome to recover, which is the real reason why Hawkinster wants to come to Toclaire - the healing witchcraft in her hand is too valuable.

Claire thought about it, although she was sure that this was not Hawkins' bottom line, but the two were friends, and she didn't need to squeeze it too much, so a sweet smile bloomed on her face, and she grabbed the other party's outstretched finger, and shook it twice before letting go.

"Deal."

Seeing that she didn't continue to increase her weight, Hawkinston breathed a sigh of relief, and then turned to look at Jonas: "Captain, the time Claire is not here to trouble you to strengthen your vigilance." ”

Jonas knew that he had no room for refutation, so he had to nod with a wry smile: "Got it." ”

Unexpectedly, Hawkins said again: "Captain, I still have to borrow two more people from your team, okay!" ”

"Borrow?" Joneston wrinkled into a bitter melon face, "Does it have to be?" "Originally, after the wizard left, the garrison of the mine was very weak, and if two more Vortex Knights were borrowed, I was afraid that a random alien race would be able to wipe them out.

Hawkins knew his worries and reassured: "Don't worry, I won't make it difficult for you, after we leave, Lawrence will stay, he is a gifted wizard, there is no need to question his strength, right?" ”

A gifted wizard?

Jonas's shrunken face suddenly stretched, all his worries were swept away, and he nodded happily, "Then it's completely fine." ”

Just as he pondered who to send, there was a knock at the door.

Tuk Tuk!

Jonas turned to open the door, and Claire retracted into her large chair like a cat.

"It's Herman, um- you're here to hand in the Dragonbloodstone?" Seeing the comer, Jonas only then thought that it was already Monday.

Herman nodded, and the situation in the room was unobstructed, he untied the silk cloth bag around his waist and handed it over: "Captain, there are 3 pounds and 6 ounces here, you can check it." ”

The knight's hands are the most accurate scale. Jonas checked it, and it was indeed no problem, so he said: "The weight is right, it seems that there is no problem, if it falls below 3 pounds twice in a row, I'm afraid I will have to ask Claire to take a look." ”

Herman smiled bitterly when he heard this, and said: "Actually, it's not such a captain, the reason why Graeme was less than 3 pounds last time was because the mine was depleted, and last week I asked the foreman to find a new mine to produce again, and when the old mine was digging, it was only 4.7 ounces a day." ”

"New Mineway?" Jonas looked abruptly surprised, "No wonder, I'll tell Claire about this." ”

Herman nodded: "Mm-hmm, I'll go back if there's nothing to do." ”

"Go ahead."

Jonas said, but before Herman could take two steps, the captain's voice came from behind.

"Hmm...... Wait, Herman. ”

Herman turned his head and asked, "Any other orders, Captain?" ”

Jonas nodded, and asked a little tangled, "Do you want to do a task that pays well?" ”

"First of all, this mission is in the Abandoned Land, which is very dangerous. If I'm afraid, I'll find someone else. ”

As soon as Herman heard the high pay, his eyes became hot, he turned around with a smile, and said without hesitation: "I took it!" ”

Jonas asked, puzzled, "That's the most chaotic abandoned place, aren't you afraid?" ”

"What's so terrible about the Forsaken Lands," Herman sighed, "I've only been afraid of poverty in my life—this is a task for the captain to give me, I've had enough of this damn vindictiveness." ”

Jonas: ......

After finishing the errand, Herman first went to the bathhouse to take a comfortable bath, and then asked the servant to cook a hearty lunch, and Meimei only began the day's cultivation after enjoying it.

The knight's time allocation is based on the exercises. If he had cultivated the high-level Dou Qi Containment Method, then he had spent most of the day cultivating Dou Qi, and if he had only cultivated the lowest-level skin-level Dou Qi Containment Method like Herman, then he would spend most of the day sharpening his Dou Qi Technique.

Although the speed of upgrading is about the same, the higher the level, the more disparity in the strength of the knights who practice different exercises, which is also the reason why the low-level knights are obsessed with changing the exercises as soon as possible before continuing to level up.

Herman practiced the most common Haigel Dou Qi Containment Method of the Knights, and the Dou Qi could only strengthen the skin and heart, and only one D-grade energy stone was needed to absorb every day, which was enough. According to this intensity, he has been cultivating for three consecutive years, and now he can try to impact the source knight rank, but if he hits the high rank now, he will only become the weakest source knight, and even if he changes the technique in the future, he will have to spend a lot of time to re-condense the fighting qi, and the gains outweigh the losses, Herman decided to continue to wait and accumulate contribution points.

(Jonas said that this mission has 300 contribution points, which is indeed considerable, and it is directly my monthly salary.) Tsk, the patrol is generous, and this time it can make a lot of money. ）

From Jonas's mouth, they learned that they were going to the Forsaken Land this time to find revenge on the werewolf tribe that attacked the mine last time, and by the way, to investigate the situation of the surrounding dark race forces. The Third Brigade, also nicknamed the Patrol Brigade by the other brigades in the interior, is one of the three strongest brigades of the Knights, and their mission is to purge the Wizarding Society of Alien and supernatural forces from the surrounding territory and secure the mines.

Almost all of the members of the three major teams are powerhouses of the Source Knight rank, and it stands to reason that it is easy for such a lineup to sweep through a small werewolf tribe, and Herman doesn't know why they are carrying such a burden as themselves, and there are still two.

(The boat is naturally straight to the bridgehead, and it is useless to think too much.) ）

A D-class power stone, it only took Herman twenty minutes to absorb all the energy in it, and he practiced two more hours of fire line punching and another set of E-class fighting skills Savage Rush, and then went to Jonas again.

This time I went to Jonas to ask how long I was going to go out, so that I could exchange the corresponding energy stones from the other party, Herman needed to absorb a D-grade energy stone every day to not go backwards. At present, the burden of the power stone on him is not large, and 1 contribution point can support his needs for ten days.
