"Your name is Qianzhihe...uh, no, it's Qianzhihe...right?"
After a short silence, the girl with golden braids jumped up to the red girl. While looking back and forth at the girl named Qian Zhihe, she repeatedly recited the name on her head: "What did you just say?"
...You also want to join our adventure group?"
"Yes, it is."
Finally taking the first step, Qian Zhihe, who seemed to have put down his burden, nodded expectantly, then secretly glanced at Duan Qing beside him: "But...is it okay?"
"Well……"
Amid the smiles of the two people around him, Mengzhu, who circled around the red girl twice, scanned the player in front of him up and down several times, as if inspecting first-class goods: "You are... magic
Master?"
"Yeah!"
When she mentioned what she was good at, the girl who was a little embarrassed by the other party finally nodded excitedly: "I am a fire magician! What I am best at is fireball! On the battlefield of Fars, I once...
"
"Will you make money?"
"……ah?"
The girl who suddenly spoke asked a question that Qian Zhihe had never thought of before, and choked back the words she originally wanted to recommend her. The smile of the maid behind became thicker, and Duan Qing next to him also felt a little bit
She touched her nose in embarrassment, but the girl who looked satisfied did not think there was anything wrong with this question at all: "Yes, it's just about making money! Although our adventure group is not large in number, the members are also a bunch of lazy people...
...No, there are only one or two, and they are currently being rectified... In short, our adventure group is not a formal adventure group, so in addition to making money, our usual goals are relatively scattered, there are no activities, and we don't participate much.
During the competition, apart from chatting, everyone is doing their own thing, or hanging around..."
Like a leader who was introducing his dream adventure group, Mengzhu swung his hands back and forth in front of his chest while walking back and forth in front of Qianzhihe, scolding his adventure group's usual routine.
All kinds of things she did. However, after hearing what she said, the smile on Duan Qing's face became even more embarrassing. He looked at the red girl who was at a loss as beads of sweat began to form on her forehead.
, finally couldn't hold back his actions: "That..."
He reached out and grabbed Mengzhu, who was immersed in a certain atmosphere: "Let's get down to business."
"Ah? What's the matter... Oh, right, right, you want to join our adventure group, right?"
"Ah...yes, yes."
The girl hurriedly nodded again: "Well...do I need to pay membership fees? I don't have many gold coins on me..."
"Membership fees? How can we have such a thing that bullies others!"
The girl let out an angry breath, then looked at the other person with her hands on her hips: "Well, I'd better ask you a few questions first..."
"Have you joined other adventure groups now?"
"No, no!" The girl waved her hand hurriedly: "I am alone now and have absolutely nothing to do with other guilds!"
"So...why do you want to join our adventure group?"
"Well……"
Qian Zhihe was stunned for a moment, then twisted his fingers in confusion: "I, I... I just want to find a place to get to know myself again."
"I have always been a player who was taken care of before. I knew few people and saw little of the world. I always wanted to become stronger, but every time I got to the critical moment, I always fell behind..." It seems to be a memory.
Regarding some things in the past, the red girl lowered her head again, and her expression became gloomy: "Someone advised me just now, and my brother also advised me before. I am actually still a novice, no.
It’s suitable to go out on adventures alone now, but I...I..."
She raised her head and looked around the people in the room: "If you don't try, how can you know that you can't do it! I, I still want to try..."
"That's why you were so happy when you saw me..."
In Mengzhu's strange eyes, Duan Qing on the side lowered his head and said, "Is it because... I finally saw an acquaintance outside?"
"I know... In the past period of time, the impression I left on everyone was not very good, and I also caused a lot of trouble to Brother Qingshan..." The girl's voice became lower and lower, and then continued
Her expression suddenly lifted up: "But...but! I will work hard to change! One day, I will definitely become the most outstanding magician, I will!"
"Can you...can you take me in?"
"..."
When Mengzhu turned his head, Duan Qing shook his head helplessly: "Although I don't know what happened to you, but..."
"We are not bad people who are unwilling to save others."
"snort."
The girl snorted with disdain, then stood in front of him with her hands on her hips: "I still need you... of course! We are not like those big guilds who don't care about anything and only know rewards and punishments all day long.
We know that members are distinguished by equipment and contributions. We are a big family formed by freedom! The purpose of our Fool Adventure Group is to fill every corner of the free world with true love and warmth! Don’t worry, the people here are good people and will not bully
Yours! Just stay here peacefully, and if anyone bullies you, just follow me..."
"Hey, hey, hey, calm down first." Duan Qing hurriedly grabbed the excited girl: "You have shouted out all kinds of nonsense slogans, please pay attention to your image, okay?"
"Ah? Oh, oh yes..." Mengzhu cleared her throat, and then restored her previous expression: "So, where did we ask just now... By the way, you are a magician, your magic level
What level is it? What spells have you mastered? How is your actual combat experience?"
"According to the level of the Mages Council, I should still be considered a second-level magician...but my fireball is very powerful! My best skill is fireball. Of course, I can also use low-level fire magic.
Yes, other spells... I haven't learned them yet, but I have a lot of practical experience. I have participated in many battlefields... battlefields... what are they called?"
"It's a battlefield copy." Duan Qing covered his forehead: "Forget it... what she just said, I can prove it. After all, I also acted with her twice when I was there, although at that time she...
Well, in short, he is still a qualified player."
"Um?"
There was a long ending sound in her nose. The girl looked at Duan Qing with squinting eyes, and then nodded slightly hesitantly: "Okay, let's trust you for now. Next..."
"Next...well, what do I need to ask next?"
Amid the laughter, Ninglan quietly covered up her laughter. Mengzhu, who was swaying her ponytail, glanced at Duan Qing who was dumbfounded. Then he stood there and became worried. After a long while, he knocked on the palm of his hand: "Forget it, that's it.
That's it, you... are qualified."
"Really? Yeah!" the red girl exclaimed excitedly: "Am I a member of the adventure group now?"
"no!"
The girl waved her hands seriously: "The questions just now are tests made by me as the leader of an adventure group. What follows is my own request! Well... for the sake of our adventure group, this should be
OK……"
"what?"
"The entrance test, well...it doesn't sound very nice, the initiation ceremony..."
Amid the incomprehensible looks in the eyes of the people around her, the girl who turned around three times finally made a decision: "Let's just call it an initiation ceremony!"
************************
"What an initiation ceremony? After all, it's still about making money!"
Outside the door of the Adventurers Association, Duan Qing, who was dragging his tired body, looked at the crowds coming and going on the street under the sunset, and commented with some helplessness: "It is called training the members' survivability, but it sounds very good..."
"No, it doesn't have to be like this, Brother Qingshan." Qianzhihe on the side shook his head in confusion: "The leader... maybe it's for everyone's good, so I have to do something to approve my request..."
"When Xuyu Liushang and Enyu Ninglan joined the association, there must have been no such thing." Looking at the red girl's normal expression, Duan Qing muttered: "You hear those names, they are all given..."
"No, the leader has been very good to me." Qianzhihe waved his hand quickly, but his voice lowered involuntarily: "Look, she sent you to help me..."
"No." Duan Qing replied with a dark face: "She just wants me to make money."
"……a ha ha ha."
Amid the red girl's dry laughter, Duan Qing wiped the muscles on his face with his hands, and then took out the stack of pages that Ninglan had given to him from the package at his waist: "No matter what, we still
While it’s still dark, try to pick some easy commissions first. Hmm…what’s your goal?”
"It seems to be three hundred and twenty-eight gold coins."
The red girl tilted her head and looked at the sky: "I don't know if this number... has any special meaning."
"Don't worry, she definitely won't read those advertisements for sex games." Duan Qing said expressionlessly, "So maybe it's just a random thought."
He flipped through the pages in his hand, and skillfully picked up the contents with his other hand: "But if we can't fake it, then this amount is still a bit difficult for us. Deliver news, help carry goods, collect furs...
It’s better not to do this, there’s not enough time to get to Talon Plains...the jeweler’s assistant, um...this is not bad, and there is cleaning..."
He put away the stack of papers, and at the same time handed the ones he had selected with his right hand to the red girl: "Let's do these things that look easy to do first, and then collect some money and then..."
"Are these... all the work that our adventure group has accumulated from time to time?" Looking at the things Duan Qing put away, the girl asked doubtfully.
"Some are like this, and some were just admitted to the Adventurer's Association today." Pointing to the hall behind him, Duan Qing replied helplessly: "You can do it for one, you can do it for ten, it doesn't matter so much."
"Oh." The girl nodded doubtfully, and then looked at the first piece of paper in her hand: "Sending a message: Help Mr. Skoku in the west of Tania City deliver a message, reward twenty gold coins... Wow, just sending a message.
Hey, is everyone’s money so easy to make?”
"There must be something fishy in the middle." Lifting the big knife behind his back, Duan Qing explained helplessly: "But it doesn't matter, let's go take a look first."
The truth turned out to be as Duan Qing expected, it was not that simple - Master Skoku mentioned in the commission was indeed the captain of a city guard stationed at a certain intersection in the west of the city, but from the perspective of two people with
Judging from his brief contact, this guy is indeed not an easy guy to get along with. When she got the letter in the other person's hand, the girl who looked at the other person's strange eyes became even more confused, because except for this letter, she was not allowed to open it.
Apart from the mission items, she never received any other prompts from the other party.
Except for the name of the target he wanted to deliver to: Wiesel.
"What should I do?"
In the helpless eyes of the girl, Duan Qing sighed with a headache: "I knew..."
"I'm a regular customer." He laughed in a low voice, "Are you from the Shadow Club's outside line..."
"You what?"
"It's nothing." Duan Qing shook his head and said: "It's just... forget it, I know this person, let's go and deliver the message now."
"oh."
With the girl's confused expression, Duan Qing took her to the civilian Dignity Tavern, and was told by the owner of the pub that had not yet started business that Wiesel was not here. He left the message in his hand on the counter, and Duan Qing
Qing put aside his preparation to explain to the other party the previous turmoil in the city, and instead led the girl out of the door: "Do you remember that Kima? That Visser... is the current person in charge of the Shadow Society in Tania City."
"Wow, Brother Qingshan even knows such a person!"
"It's just some connection." Throwing the twenty gold coins in his hand to the girl, Duan Qing explained in a low voice: "The previous mission was also thrown to me by that guy, although in the end... there was no reward.
Didn’t even get it.”
"Hahaha, then the twenty gold coins this time are considered as advance interest." The girl snickered and put away the gold coins in her hand, and then asked happily: "Why is no one rushing for such a simple task?
Is our front finished?"
"Maybe they don't know who the so-called Visser is, and the previous captain's attitude was so bad..." Duan Qing guessed casually: "But isn't this a good thing for us? At least we can make more money.
A few dollars..."
"Yeah." The red girl nodded with satisfaction: "I hope the subsequent commissions will go as smoothly."
"How can there be such a good thing..."
The unintentional words became a prophecy and gradually became a prophecy, because their next mission encountered difficulties - they wandered around the aristocratic area of Yale Street for a long time, but they could not find the missing person mentioned in the commission.
The target person had no choice but to give up this possibly expired task at Duan Qing's suggestion and rushed to a warehouse beside a bridge in the south of the city. There was a cargo transportation commission, but looking at the two panting players
, the guard guarding the warehouse door expressionlessly tore up the commission letter in his hand, and then informed them of the fact that the task had been completed.
"All the goods here have been moved, please wait until next time." He said.
"What bad luck."
Looking at the gradually darkening sky, Qian Zhihe kicked away a stone on the roadside in frustration: "How could this happen?"
"It's just some tasks, and some of them are cleaned by people." Duan Qing comforted the other party: "Let's hurry up and try to run all these tasks before dark, regardless of whether they still exist..."
He picked up the page and looked at the next place on it: "Vaniya Jewelry Shop... Well, it's a task to help the jeweler."
"I hope it won't be too confusing." (To be continued.)
