Chapter 152: The Second Mission

After asking for a mission credential from the village chief, the three of them said goodbye and left the village.

Lead the horses to a spacious place, tie the three horses to a stone, and pull out some hay from the space necklace and place it on it.

"It's not too early, let's make up for the night here. ”

Lu Ming spoke, and the two of them naturally agreed. I saw Lu Ming start chanting a magic spell, and soon a flame was released, which formed a circle in the air and landed on the ground, and the snow on the ground quickly melted, and the water vapor was filled.

The ring of fire shrinks inward, melting all the snow inside, clearing a clean, dry area.

This is a level 3 magic burning fire ring, which wraps and burns enemies by shrinking, and it is the highest level of fire magic that Lu Ming can comprehend so far.

I walked up and took out a long cloth and spread it on the ground, the ground was warmed by the fire, and it was very comfortable to lie on it.

It's not that cultivators can't feel cold, on the contrary, their ability to perceive cold is far beyond that of ordinary people, but their adaptability is strong enough that ordinary cold and heat can't affect them.

Daphne smiled and lay down beside Lu Ming, Selia hesitated for a moment, and finally mustered up the courage to lie down on the other side of Lu Ming.

"During the day you listen to the head of the regiment, and at night people listen to you. ”

Lu Ming kissed her lightly on the forehead, "Rest early and go on a mission tomorrow." ”

"This is the wilderness, don't you want to try it?"

A bewitching voice shouted out of the blonde elf's mouth, and Lu Ming turned over and hugged Selia.

"I don't know you elf. ”

Gently stroking Celia's little head, he remembered Lilith and wondered how the little guy was doing now.

Daphne snorted, and simply turned away from him. Selia's little face was flushed, the master's embrace was so warm, at this moment, what kind of annihilation hatred, what identity danger, she had left behind, and she just wanted to sleep until dawn.

There were no mosquitoes in winter, and there were no wild animals in the area, so the three of them slept very peacefully.

Lu Ming woke up on time in the morning, woke up one big and one small, and continued to hurry, heading to the next mission location.

Daphne pulled out her parchment map and rechecked the directions. Walk in the front and guide the two of them.

As she hurried, she said, "That big wild boar has a lot of strength, and it is no longer an ordinary wild boar. In fact, the difficulty of this task can be classified as D-level. ”

"D-class, are mercenary missions that simple?"

Daphne shook her head, "It's not that the task is easy, it's that we're too strong. If you think about it, there are so many mercenaries in the world, and there are a few cultivators, and there are a few cultivators like us. With the strength of the three of us, we can already do C-level missions. ”

Lu Ming suddenly, unconsciously, he was already ahead of most people.

"Then why don't we just go for the C-rank mission?

"That's right, it's faster to get promoted that way, because one high-level mission can be converted into three next-level missions. In other words, one D-level mission can top nine F-level missions, so that we can directly advance to the E-level mercenary group. ”

Seeing that Lu Ming was even more puzzled, Daphne continued: "In this way, the mercenary union needs to take responsibility for the task of overstepping the level, if there is an accident, they will be responsible, and it will affect the reputation, so the mercenary union generally will not allow this." ”

Lu Ming sighed, take your time, you have already completed an F-level task, and you only need to complete eight more to advance.

The location of the second quest is a small town, which is much larger than a village. After some inquiry, the trio found the publisher of the task.

He was a blacksmith who sprained his waist while wielding a hammer, and the injuries were too severe for the town's doctors to treat.

The blacksmith lay on the bed with a pale face, and his daughter pleaded, "Father's illness requires the Earth Spirit Grass, which grows on the outskirts of the Demonic Beast Forest, and I hope you can pick it." ”

"Not necessarily. ”

Daphne waved her hand, and she silently performed the healing technique, and a soft white ball grew in her right hand, which seemed to be more pure than before, and it seemed that Cyra had helped her a lot.

The blacksmith looked excited, the person who came turned out to be a noble magician, and he was also a rare light mage!

The ball of light melted into the blacksmith's waist, constantly healing the wounds there, and the blacksmith's face improved significantly. When all the orbs of light were gone, his injuries had healed.

Trying to stand up, the blacksmith knelt on the ground excitedly, "Thank you, Master Mage, for your help!"

Lu Ming helped him up and said with a smile: "After getting paid, I naturally want to contribute to you." ”

The blacksmith was even more excited, and pulled his daughter to thank him, he knew in his heart that the swordsman with his little reward might not be able to look at it, let alone the magician.

A magician can sell a magic device for a high price, and is known as the richest profession.

When he left here, Lu Ming glanced at the weapons and equipment on display, none of them belonged to the silver level, and there were very few black iron grades, most of them were ordinary weapons, and the gap between the town and the city was quite large.

"I'm starting to like the mercenary profession. ”

Lu Ming was riding on a horse, with his hands behind his head, looking very leisurely. Mercenaries can help others, and you will be happy and satisfied when others sincerely thank you.

Daphne pursed her lips and chuckled, "If you like it, you should always stay by my side." ”

Lu Ming smiled and didn't speak, this kind of thing can't be promised. He has more than one woman, how can he let one person be fastened?

On the way to the third mission location, he encountered a group of mercenaries.

"I will definitely make a lot of money by going to the Duchy of Sain this time. A soldier's head can be exchanged for 5 silver coins, and it's exciting to think about. ”

Another said: "What is this, there are 6 silver coins from the Gru Empire." The soldiers were in groups, and they could only pick them out when they were alone. You also have to beware of peers stealing business. ”

The group of mercenaries passed in front of them, a small group of nine people.

"Now that the three kingdoms are at war, the strength of the mercenaries cannot be ignored, so the mercenary union in the Principality of Posei has issued a bounty task.

I believe that the same is true on the side of the Duchy of Sain, who are already at a disadvantage, and the proposed remuneration must be higher. However, the mercenaries are slippery, and their tasks may not be accepted. Daphne said, looking at their backs.

"Why do you want to fight?" Lu Ming sighed, if there is a war, people will die, and people will be broken and displaced.

"The dissatisfaction of those in power with the current allocation of resources is a major reason for waging war. ”

"Are wealth, power, and fame really that important?" Lu Ming asked.

Daphne looked at him tenderly, "You don't think they matter because you have them all, or you don't need them, and when you need them one day, you will strive for them." ”

Lu Ming thought thoughtfully, "But I still don't understand, the Gelug Empire and the Principality of Bosei are already among the top two powers, why do they still compete for the resources of other countries?"

Daphne thought for a moment.

"I think it has something to do with the personalities of the two kings, some of whom have been doing nothing all their lives, and some of whom are ambitious and have the world in mind. They clearly fall into the latter category. ”
