"Sir, there is nothing in Gudan Town that I don't know about. If you have any questions, just give me your instructions..."
"If you need to take a rest here, I can introduce you to the best hotel and the most beautiful and considerate maid."
"The equipment on your body seems to be badly damaged. I know there is a blacksmith shop run by dwarves. The craftsmanship is the best in the town... Along the way, Lucio spared no effort to show his value in front of Chen Rui. Chen Rui knew
He didn't say anything about his intentions. In fact, he didn't have any murderous intention for Lucio, a little pawn. He just took the opportunity to get an identity certificate and go to the Longhuang Empire. Speaking of which, from this guy's endless words
, and also learned a lot of useful information.
"Your great-grandfather was an officer in the Longhuang Empire?" Chen Rui finally asked.
Lucio, who had just listed out his family tree in the hope of getting involved with this "division-level warrior" to save his life, heard this rhetorical question and quickly replied: "Yes, my great-grandfather was a spearman of the Red Dragon Legion."
The captain of the brigade, but unfortunately his family fell into decline. When my father was here, he moved to Yangshao Kingdom. Later, my father died of illness, and I..."
Speaking of the glory of his ancestors and comparing his current situation, Lucio lowered his head in shame: "My dream since I was a child is to become a spearman and inherit the glory of my grandfather. Unfortunately, my luck is quite bad..."
Bad luck? Is it because of the hard-working profession of a spearman? Chen Rui remembers a saying, "Since ancient times, spearmen have been hard-working, and the luckiest thing is luck." A typical example is the hard work of a certain person holding the "Red Rose that Breaks Demons"
Hot men.
Of course, Chen Rui knew that Lucio's shame was quite artificial, so he shook his head in disbelief and said no more.
The Kubi Lancer was quite familiar with the terrain here. About an hour and a half later, the two walked out of the forest area and arrived at Gudan Town.
Chen Rui was taciturn along the way, and became more and more mysterious in Lucio's heart. He didn't dare to ask more questions, and just asked in a flattering manner: "Sir, as we all know. What are the weapon maker badges, pharmacist badges, academy badges, and mercenary badges?
Identity certificates are common to all countries, but there is only a mercenary union in Gudan town. If you don't mind, you can register a mercenary identity for temporary use."
There are toolmaker badges and pharmacist badges in Chen Rui's storage warehouse, but they are badges from the demon world, as well as the engraved logos of the three empires. They definitely cannot be used in the surface world. Chen Rui pondered for a moment and said: "
Then go to the mercenary union. I have always been low-key and don’t like publicity. Do you understand what to do?"
This sentence contained a threat, and Lucio quickly shook his head: "I understand! Please don't worry, sir!"
The two came to a larger building with a sword-shaped logo on it.
After entering the door, there was a hall. There were many people in the hall, and they looked like they were all mercenaries. Not long after the two entered the hall, they heard a disdainful voice next to them: "Look who that is? It's not a bad gun.
'Lucio? He even broke the gun. This time he is a veritable waste."
The person who spoke was a bearded man with a broad sword on his back. His strength was D-, a level higher than Lucio's.
Several sarcastic voices nearby also rang: "This guy usually only bullies some rookies and has no skills. That day I saw him being chased by a flaming pig until he was pissed, and even half of his pants were burned. Haha!"
"Lucio is not just a waste, he is also an unlucky guy. Last time he went blind and blackmailed the guard captain's new cousin, but he was severely beaten and imprisoned for three months... Lucio
Ao didn't dare to say anything and walked forward with his head lowered.
A petite and mature female mercenary spoke: "Hey! That boy following behind, Lucio is not a good guy, don't be fooled by him!"
This was considered a kind advice. Chen Rui glanced at the female mercenary and still followed Lucio.
"If you don't even accept Sister Ina's kindness, this rookie deserves to be tricked to death!"
"I bet this rookie was defrauded of at least thirty white crystal coins."
"Fifty white crystal coins, how about we take a gamble?"
Chen Rui's calm voice rang in Lucio's ear: "It seems that you are quite famous."
Lucio blushed and lowered his head. In front of him was the "reception desk". Directly in front of him was a pretty girl, and behind him there were several girls busy. The huge bulletin board on the side showed it in detail.
Mercenary tasks of various levels, including content, time limit and remuneration, etc. The most eye-catching one is the popular tasks marked on the big black sign. There is no mercenary union in the demon world. Chen Rui took a few more glances curiously.
"Xiandi, this friend of mine wants to become a mercenary, please help me register."
Sandy glanced at Lucio and handed Chen Rui a form. Chen Rui now had the face of the earthly otaku that Sea of Death had always used. His appearance was not amazing. He immediately filled in the name of "Richard" in the form, and the rest.
The information was naturally fabricated based on what Lucio said.
Sandy took the form, glanced at it quickly, and nodded: "Richard, I don't know if Lucio has clearly explained to you that in order to become a mercenary certified by the union, you must first complete the simplest qualification tasks and become a mercenary certified by the union.
Prepare mercenaries. Then, after completing three white crystal-level tasks within a month, you can become an official mercenary with a white crystal badge."
Lucio quickly said: "Well... that's it, Sandy, please register Richard to join my Fierce Spear Team, so that as soon as he completes the preliminary mercenary task, he can directly become an official mercenary."
This is indeed the rule of the trade union. As long as you become a reserve mercenary and officially join a registered mercenary team, the reserve mercenary can directly "convert" to obtain the badge. This is not a loophole. Mercenaries are a profession that requires life and death.
Shen will be killed, injured or even destroyed. A formal mercenary team will definitely not recruit members without strength.
"The preliminary mission should be to hunt the wind rabbit. There is the body of a wind rabbit here. Please check it." Lucio took out the wind rabbit he hunted on the road and put it on the table.
"Yes, it is indeed a fresh wind rabbit corpse. Richard has already qualified as a reserve mercenary, but..." Sandy took out a form and looked at it carefully as if to confirm, "Lucio, I'm afraid...
...You are no longer qualified to recruit members. The Fierce Spear Squad has been frozen because it has not completed an Amethyst-level mission within a year. According to regulations, from now on, you must complete an Amethyst-level mission within seven days.
.can be unfrozen, otherwise the Fierce Gun Team will be disbanded forever."
"What?" Lucio was shocked: "It's been a year so soon? Why didn't I receive notice in advance?"
"Hmph! A loser like you who can't stand failure only knows how to deceive and cheat and get drunk all day long. How can he remember the time? Naturally, there is no need to waste energy to notify." A rich voice came from behind. This was a person.
A middle-aged man with a red beard and a scar on his face.
"President." Sandy's words revealed the identity of this red-bearded uncle, who is the head of the mercenary union branch in Gudan Town. Red-beard's apparent strength is at the peak of the sergeant level (D+), which is equivalent to a high-level high-level demon, but
The actual strength has reached the master level, which is equivalent to the first stage of the Great Demon King (b-). These cannot be hidden from Chen Rui's eyes.
Naturally, Redbeard couldn't see through Chen Rui's strength, and only regarded him as an inferior rookie who was deceived by Lucio. He didn't care at all, and cast his cold eyes on Lucio: "You are better than I thought.
The situation is even worse, has it reduced to using the name of a mercenary team to defraud? Such a team has no meaning at all."
"No! Master Rotan, I didn't! Really!" Lucio shouted, suddenly thinking that there was a fatal evil star beside him. Cold sweat suddenly broke out.
From Red Beard's words, Chen Rui heard that the bitter spearman seemed to be a guy with a lot of stories. Now that the mercenary team was frozen, the plan to quickly get the mercenary badge failed, but the bitter man probably didn't mean it.
This may be related to his life.
"Is it true that if I complete an Amethyst-level mission, I can obtain a mercenary badge?" Chen Rui suddenly interjected.
"Little guy, it's not that easy to be a mercenary. Otherwise, even if you get the mercenary badge, you won't be considered a real mercenary. You will only die faster in future missions," red-bearded Luo Tan said to Chen Rui.
He glanced at it and shook his head disapprovingly: "Don't believe this liar's so-called shortcuts. Complete the three white crystal-level tasks honestly and accumulate experience slowly, so that you may live longer. As for the amethyst-level tasks
, it’s simply not something you can reach at your current level.”
Chen Rui has long noticed that Bai Jing-level tasks are indeed not difficult. They include assisting pharmacists in collecting medicinal herbs, delivering messages to neighboring towns, assisting guards in night defense, collecting World of Warcraft furs, etc. However, for him who is not familiar with the place where he lives,
It's all too time consuming.
"Miss Sandy, I would like to ask, what is the fastest task to unfreeze the Fierce Gun Team? I only ask about the shortest task, no matter the level." Chen Rui smiled at Sandy and asked.
For some reason, Sandy felt that there was a strange charm in that ordinary smile, and she couldn't help but replied: "On the popular mission, there is a mission to obtain manticore eggs issued by Pastor Mana. The level is Black Crystal Level 7.
The reward is three hundred black crystal coins."
"Oh." Chen Rui nodded and said to Lucio, "Let's go."
Lucio didn't dare to say anything and followed him. Redbeard noticed that the previous relationship between the two was a bit strange and frowned slightly.
After walking out of the mercenary union, Lucio quickly explained: "Sir Richard, I'm sorry, I really didn't know that the Fiery Spear Squad had been frozen..."
"Where is Manticore located in the Blue Wild Forest?"
"The poisonous cave deep in the Lanye Forest..." Lucio replied and immediately reacted, "Sir! Could it be that you..."
"Stop talking nonsense, lead the way now and go to Fierce Poison Cave immediately!"
"Ah? Me?" Lucio trembled and stopped: "There are two manticores in the Poison Cave. One of them is said to be close to the saint level. They are the overlords of the Blue Wild Forest. No one has ever dared
To provoke. A year ago, my team was collecting poisonous fruits nearby and accidentally disturbed a manticore. As a result, everyone except me..."
"You have two choices now. First, die immediately. Second, go to Fierce Poison Cave. Perhaps, you can not only survive, but also avenge your lost companions."
Lucio looked at Chen Rui's calm eyes and finally gritted his teeth: "I'll go!"
