Chapter 42 Commission

After getting such a magical new gadget, the three of them immediately couldn't put it down.

They rubbed the front of the summoning stone again, and soon the runes lit up and the mount reappeared.

Amidst laughter, they rubbed the back of the stone again and sent their horses back to the stable.

The experience went back and forth five times, until the mount became irritable due to the dizziness caused by the teleportation, and until Garken was kicked away by his mount, the nonsense finally came to an end amidst laughter.

Next, Kewen took out three more stones.

The stone he calls 'Hearthstone' has a relatively single function.

Its function is to activate the teleportation rune on it through rubbing, allowing the holder to teleport to a fixed location instantly.

Kewen fixed the teleportation coordinates at the door of the stable.

In this way, no matter where you are in the future, as long as there is no magic interference, you can instantly teleport back to the door of the new stable.

After accepting the new gift, Natalie and the others couldn't help but express their sincere admiration for Kewen's magical ability.

Feeling that there were three surprises coming in a row today, Galken immediately announced loudly after returning to the hotel that he would pay for the banquet for everyone tonight.

After a week, we were finally able to eat free meals again, which caused many people to rush to tell each other.



Next, Kewen and the others rested for three more days.

Except for Kewen who stayed in the guest room to study magic, Galken and the other three were completely unable to settle down.

They left the hotel and the town after breakfast every day.

I summoned my mount to roam around outside. In the evening, I first teleported the mount back to the stable, and then teleported it back through the hearthstone.

Their novelty towards magic items is probably not going to cool down in a short time.

Of course, Galken and the others are not wasting their time.

In the past three days, they went west to the 'Western Fertile Fields', south to the 'Sunshine Forest', and east to the 'Lakeside Town'.

After returning, they brought back two commissioned tasks.

During dinner, Natalie said to Coven while biting a croissant: "The mayor of Lakeside Town dropped his ancestral necklace while patrolling the lake, and commissioned a salvage mission for all adventurers. What do you think?

?”

"It should be easy to get the necklace, right?"

Today, Ke Wen changed his wine to the hotel's unique 'Lion King Stout'. After taking a big sip, he continued: "Don't wait for us to pass, but the mission has been completed by other adventurers."

Natalie shook her head: "Don't worry, it's completely impossible."

"How do you say that?" Coven asked.

Natalie explained: "Because the place where the mayor lost his necklace was not at the lakeside, but in the deep water area in the middle of the 'Still Water Lake'."

"I inquired specifically and heard from the fishermen over there that the middle area of ​​Zhishui Lake is almost fifty meters deep."

"Moreover, there are snake-necked water monsters under the deep water, not to mention fish-men at the bottom of the lake, so no adventurer dares to go down."

Galken intervened and said to Coven: "The mayor of Lakeside Town has offered a reward of fifty gold coins to retrieve the necklace, but it has been almost a week and no adventurer dares to accept the commission."

Ke Wen nodded, and then asked: "Do you want to take over the commission?"

"It depends on you." Natalie responded: "Are any of the magics in your body able to solve this commission easily?"

Galken quickly added: "Of course, we are not doing it for the fifty gold coins, but the mayor over there said that if any adventurer can complete the commission, then in the future, he will do the mission in Lakeside Town.

We can get accommodation and assistance from the 'Hupan Town Government'."

Hearing this, Kewen suddenly came over, nodded and said: "That's not bad. If we complete the task, we can also open up our reputation there."

"That's right." Natalie asked again: "So do you have any magic suitable for this task?"

"No problem." Ke Wen gave a happy answer: "We will take over this task, and then Nana, please ask the mayor of Lakeside Town if you would like to entrust us to help clean up the fishmen."

"Probably impossible."

Natalie shook her head: "Over in Lakeside Town, the work of cleaning up the fishmen and beasts, as well as the work of guarding against the black-skinned dwarves, has long been taken over by the Kingdom's army stationed there."

Ke Wen was stunned, but then said: "What about cleaning up the 'Snake-necked Lake Monster'? We can help 'Lakeside Town' get rid of the threat of the lake monster."

"No way."

Natalie shook her head again and explained with a smile: "The lake monster was deliberately left in the 'Still Water Lake'."

"Why?" Kewen was puzzled.

"Because of the fish people."

Natalie explained: "You know, the murlocs reproduce too fast and cannot be cleaned up at all, so 'Lakeside Town' keeps those 'snake-necked water monsters' and uses them to devour the murlocs in the lake.

"

Grain tart

"That's it." Kewen finally understood.

He thought about it and felt that it was just a simple matter of 'invoking a curse' anyway, so he nodded and said: "Okay, we will take over the task, it will be easy to complete."

"Hmm." Natalie took a sip of corn soup and said, "Then let's go there tomorrow?"

Without waiting for Kewen to respond, Galken quickly interjected: "Can we arrange it later? Nana, did you forget that there is another task entrusted to you?"

"Oh, right." Natalie patted her forehead: "I forgot."

"What is the mission?" Ke Wen asked.

"Over there in the Sunshine Forest." Natalie shrugged her shoulders: "It's just an ordinary escort mission. A farmer needs to hire someone to escort a large amount of fruit to Stormwind City to help the delivery team clean up the wild beast attacks on the road."

Shaking her head, Natalie said: "Because I feel that this task is not interesting, I don't take it to heart."

"Uh, it's true..." Galken scratched his cheek with his index finger and said with a smile: "The commission is only five gold coins. In the past, this money was already a lot for the three of us, but now... hehehehehe...

…”

"Hehehehehe..." Tager echoed with a silly smile.

Ke Wen chuckled and then said: "Then forget it for now. This kind of ordinary task will not improve our reputation in any way, so it's okay not to do it."

Natalie said: "That's it, let's do the commissioned task of 'Lakeside Town', but speaking of it..."

Sighing with some regret, Natalie continued: "Originally, there was a suitable mission over there in the 'Western Fertile Wilderness', but unfortunately we were a little late. Because the situation there was too serious, we have already asked for help.

Stormwind City."

"It's quite a pity." Garken nodded in agreement: "That job will probably be handled by Stormwind City's troops."

Ke Wen put down his hand to appease: "It doesn't matter, there are commissioned tasks everywhere, not to mention that we have to continue to clean up the 'Kobold Lair'. I guess we won't be able to spare the energy to do outside tasks in a short time."

"That's right." Natalie agreed and then started to make the final decision: "Then, how about we go to Lakeside Town tomorrow?"

Kewen turned his head and looked at a dining table on the other side of the door.

He looked at the old adventurer who had been left alone for many days, and then said: "No, let's go to Lakeside Town in two days."

"What?" Galken was puzzled: "Is there anything else going on in the past two days?"

"Let's clean up the remaining two 'Kobold Lairs' first." Ke Wen responded: "It's enough to leave them dry for so long. If we continue, it will have a bad reputation for us."

Natalie and the three of them turned their heads at the same time and looked at the old adventurer team at the door.

Everyone's actions caught the attention of the diners, and Kewen raised his hand to wave to the old adventurer.

The old adventurer was stunned for a moment, then a look of surprise appeared, and he quickly got up and trotted over.





The trip to Lakeside Town was postponed to three days later.

Because in addition to the two adventurer teams that had chosen to wait and see, on the second day, another single female adventurer came up and brought the location of a 'Kobold Lair'.

The female adventurer also said that she was from Stormwind City and used to make a living in the main city.

Several people in the team were tacitly understanding each other, basically making some guesses, and did not believe the other party's words at all.

But no matter what the other party’s purpose is, it will not stop everyone from continuing to make money.

Therefore, for three days in a row, the team completed three cooperations, adding nearly 400 gold coins to their respective treasury.

Early on the fourth day, Ke Wen and others left the female adventurer who was still in Goldshire Town and wanted to get closer to everyone, and rode on the road, heading straight for Lakeside Town.

The attitude of everyone made the female adventurer very angry.

In the end, she could only leave Goldshire with a gloomy face and returned to Stormwind City.



Lakeside Town is not close to Gold Shine Town, so it took Kewen and the others nearly four hours to reach their destination without speeding up.

This town is not big, with a population of only a quarter of that of 'Golden Town', about a little over 2,000.

Everyone stored their horses at a hotel in the town, and then walked into the city hall not far away.

Perhaps the mayor was in a hurry to retrieve the ancestral necklace, so Kewen and the others were not hindered at all. After revealing their identities as adventurers, they were taken directly into the office by the staff.

The mayor is a stout old man, with short gray and white hair that sticks up, and a pair of bright blue eyes.

He was wearing a flannel shirt, and the bulging muscles stretched the shirt very close, making it seem as if the shirt was about to burst open at any time.

As soon as Kewen and others arrived at the door of the office, they saw the mayor patting the table and feeling annoyed: "It's not that useless resource officer! I don't need to go to the lake to check the aquatic conditions of the 'spotted sunfish' in person! I don't

meeting……"

The nagging voice suddenly stopped, but it was because the mayor noticed the people at the door...
