499 Identity issues
"Your idea..."
Three days later, outside the Mercenary Union in the Sixth Ring District of Blue City, Sawyer stared at Greta for a long time and was speechless.
"You don't have any money on yourself. If you want to make money quickly, otherwise you won't be so troublesome."
Greta's expression of "blame me" made Sawyer speechless again.
However, this matter is really just like Greta said. If you want to blame him, you can only blame him for being a black man. He has no formal identity and is extremely inconvenient in many things.
Fortunately, all this is temporary. In the era of gray fog, due to the large number of gray fog strongholds scattered in gray fog, even the Ringcheng could not count everyone's information. For "Gray fog residents" like Sawyer who entered the city for the first time, the Ringcheng in various places usually have a temporary pass. Those who live in the Ringcheng for more than a month and have no illegal acts can apply for a formal identity certificate again, which is common in all Ringchengs.
Otherwise, you can only exchange a temporary pass for the current city with temporary pass. Some large cities do not recognize the temporary pass for other cities. If there is no universal identity certificate, the procedures for entering these large cities will be more complicated.
However, even if you live in the ring city for a month, it is not easy to get such a "universal ID card". You need to own a property in any ring city, or you can only get the "idle card" after the Guardian Association has obtained the assessment of the Nine Ring Professional.
This also leads to the fact that most gray fog residents may have worked hard for half their lives after moving to the ring city, but are still using the temporary pass.
Of course, for Sawyer, these are not problems. With his strength, it is still easy to be certified as the lowest Nine Ring Professional. The only problem is...
"Why do you have to wait for a month to verify strength and register mercenaries!"
When the Guardians Association and the Mercenary Union were informed at the same time that they had been in the city for less than a month and could not undergo strength certification and mercenary registration, Sawyer was going crazy. He could still understand the identity certificate that needed to be examined for a month, but why did these things have to wait for a month?
"What if you are a raider?" Greta rolled her eyes, "Even if this month is the inspection period, even if you were a raider before, if you can last for a month and not do evil, it can prove that you have really returned to the camp of order."
"Oh, okay."
Sawyer also accepted his fate and could only wait outside the mercenary union as Greta had previously suggested.
Information about the predators is also common sense. Soya naturally heard from Greta that the so-called predators, the full name should be called the Gray Mist Predators. Most of them are ordinary people who are lost in the Gray Mist. These people are lucky enough to die but are eroded by the Gray Mist. Driven by what is called the "Gray Mist Will", these people will attack all normal people entering the Gray Mist.
However, after getting out of the gray fog, the influence of the "gray fog will" on them will gradually weaken. Some lucky guys will recover a little bit of themselves after getting out of the gray fog for a period of time. As long as their will is firm enough, they will gradually get rid of the dominance of the "gray fog will".
The Ring City is not rejected by the plunderers who have recovered their self, but it is necessary for these former plunderers to live in the Ring City for a month to prove that their will is enough to suppress the impact of the "Gray Mist Will" on them.
Of course, this relatively relaxed policy is only for the gray fog plunderers transformed from ordinary people, and the attitude of the "Ash Warrior" and "Ash Wizard" transformed into the strong is much stricter.
"So, even if I wait a month later and I go to the strength certification, I can't reveal my own strength, right?"
"That's right, unless you want to be regarded as a warrior in the ashes, and then wait for more than half a year."
Greta shrugged, and suddenly saw a small team walking out of the gate of the Mercenary Union and hurriedly pulled Sawyer to meet him: "Hey, sir, please stay! You guys are going out of the city, do you need help?"
"helper?"
The team led the lead of a young man in leather armor. He paused and was a little confused when he heard Greta's voice. However, after seeing Sawyer behind Greta, he suddenly reacted: "Did you just entered the city this month?"
"Of course," Sawyer showed a distressed expression and said as Greta taught him before: "Otherwise, I should have been a Nine Ring Professional a few days ago."
"That's it," the young man pondered for a moment, then stretched out a hand to Soya: "Try it?"
"no problem."
Sawyer smiled and held the young man's wrist, while concentrating a trace of awakening power in his palm. This is the most commonly used method used to prove his strength in the era of Gray Mist.
After confirming Sawyer's strength, the young man also laughed, but he was a little surprised in his smile: "Friend, your strength doesn't seem to have just broken through!"
If you just exercise your body, you can do it in the gray fog stronghold, but if you want to break through to the Nine Ring profession, you must enter the ring city to do it. This is related to the mechanism of dispersing gray fog between the gray fog stronghold and the ring city.
For ordinary fire, it is the simplest and most rude way to use the power of fire to "push away" the gray fog. To put it bluntly, it is like unfolding a small forbidden demon field. Within the range of fire, all energy is rejected.
The gray fog stronghold is similar to the fire, but it solidifies this repulsive energy power, forming a layer of barrier, with better isolation effect, and there is still a weak repulsive force inside the barrier.
Therefore, whether in the shelter formed by the fire or in the gray fog stronghold, you can only simply exercise your body. If you want to practice further energy, you can only enter the ring city.
Unlike the previous two, the "safety zone" formed by the city on the tower does not reject energy, but is more like a large purification barrier, stabilizing the violent gray fog energy again, and no longer harming the human body, and can also use rich energy to practice.
Of course, the so-called stability is only relative. Compared with the present world, these energies are still very violent. At least in the present world, no spellcaster is willing to meditate in this energy environment.
But no matter what, it at least gives people the possibility of continuing to practice, and only by circling the city can energy practice have become a common sense in the whole world.
So when you enter the Ring City "the first time" and if you are an ordinary person, no matter how strong you are, you will not be targeted by the guards of the Ring City. However, if a master of Nine Ring or stronger enters the city without a pass, you will inevitably be an ashes warrior/wizard who has lost the Guardian badge.
"I learned the guidance technique from a passing knight. For this, I have been practicing for two more years."
Sawyer was not panicked and continued to deal with what Greta taught him. After the young man looked at Sawyer's face younger than him, he did not ask any more questions and agreed to let Sawyer join his team.
