Zhao Xi, seven members of Yangmei Team and Pastor Du Wei filled the living room, but the atmosphere was a bit unpleasant. The plump mayor had a troubled expression on his face, and the crowd was quite exaggerated.
Zhao Xi frowned and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Mayor, we are here to protect Chenxi Town and eliminate the Shadow Wolf, and at the same time restore the normal production of the copper mine. Can't we satisfy such a small request?"
He stood up and said: "If this is the case, then I have no choice but to take people back now. You can explain it to the Baron yourself. All responsibilities will be entirely borne by you!"
Fang Xu, An Xiaohai and others were not fools either. Seeing Zhao Xi's behavior, they immediately stood up.
"Yes, let's go!"
"Looks like we're not welcome here!"
"It's boring!"
Seeing such a scene, the fat mayor immediately panicked and quickly stopped him: "My lords, please listen to me. It's not that I don't want to help you, but that I don't have the ability to dispatch manpower for you now."
Zhao Xi was surprised: "You are the mayor, why can't you control the people in the town?"
The fat mayor wiped the sweat from his forehead and said with a wry smile: "Last time I organized people to wipe out the shadow wolves, but the shadow wolves were not eliminated, but four or five young people were lost. It was too late to ask for help from Blackstone Castle.
There was no response, so now except for a few guards at my home, no one listens to my orders!"
Sure enough, there is a reason, this task is becoming more and more interesting!
Zhao Xi thought to himself, but his face was still unhappy: "This is your problem. My question is, if you don't have a guide who is familiar with the local environment and enough manpower, how can you eliminate the wolves?"
The fat mayor said: "Sir Knight, you can go to the tavern in the town and have a look. Most of the young people in the town, including some warriors and hunters, are there. Maybe you can recruit them."
A new system prompt immediately appeared in the vision of Zhao Xi and all team members.
System prompt: The task of recruiting team members has begun!
Mission goal: Successfully recruit more than 5 professionals from Chenxi Town to join the team!
The task of recruiting team members is obviously a side task of the main task, which is also a major feature of the plot mission. The triggering of the side task is completely based on the performance of the task player in the task scene. Therefore, it is full of variables.
The key is that this task is completely mandatory and must be completed after being triggered!
Zhao Xi nodded: "Okay, I'll go take a look later!"
He looked at the fat mayor and said: "Mr. Mayor, I can forgive your difficulties. But I also hope that you can provide us with the help you can."
The fat mayor said quickly: "That's no problem. As long as I can do it, I will never refuse!"
Zhao Xi pondered: "I haven't thought about the details yet, but now our team has just arrived in Chenxi Town. We don't even have a place to stay. I think your house here is quite big..."
The fat mayor nodded like a fool: "As long as you don't mind it, please stay at my house. I still have five or six empty guest rooms. I'll have them cleaned right away. You can stay here for as long as you like!"
Zhao Xi smiled and said: "That's really troublesome, Mr. Mayor. We can stay for two days at most and then leave!"
He turned around and said to Fang Xu and others: "You settle down here first, Qianqian, Mu Mu, you two go to the tavern with me to recruit helpers."
The Ye brothers and An Xiaohai immediately shouted: "Brother Daniu, we want to go together too!"
Zhao Xi shook his head and said: "Believe me, it's not good if there are too many people. Time is limited and follow the instructions. You all stay here and are not allowed to go anywhere!"
These guys are not easy to worry about. Recruiting team members is undoubtedly related to the success or failure of the mission. Taking them to the tavern with them in case something happens will be totally worth the loss.
Without waiting for their answer, Zhao Xi said to the pastor who had been standing next to him: "Pastor Du Wei, can you take us to the tavern? I still have some questions to ask you."
Du Wei said with a little panic: "I am happy to serve you!"
So the four of them left the mayor's house together and went to the tavern to recruit team members.
On the way, Zhao Xi asked the pastor: "Pastor Du Wei, have you ever seen a vampire?"
Du Wei smiled bitterly and said: "Our Light Cult and vampires are mortal enemies. If I saw a vampire, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to talk to you now. However, there are many records about vampires in our church's documents."
What I want is your words!
Zhao Xi asked with great interest: "Can you tell me?"
Vampires are a hybrid race of humans and demons. They have the appearance of humans and the strong physique of demons. They have a long history of inheritance and racial civilization.
The vampires hate the Church of Light extremely and often make trouble in the main plane of light and the independent planes controlled by the Church of Light. Because they are good at lurking and camouflaging, they are very difficult to deal with.
Du Wei said: "Only with the help of evil detection magic can vampires in the crowd be distinguished, but some high-level vampires can hide themselves better and require equally high-level priests to deal with them."
Ye Qianqian, who was following him, couldn't help but ask: "So what are the weaknesses of vampires? Are they afraid of sunlight, garlic, and can only be killed with silver weapons? Are they all handsome?"
"
The last sentence left Zhao Xi speechless.
The priest was stunned: "You...who did you listen to? Vampires are not afraid of sunlight, let alone garlic. It is difficult for ordinary weapons to harm them, but I have not heard that silver weapons are more effective."
"What really scares them is the Holy Power. The Holy Power is the nemesis of all evil forces, including vampires!"
Zhao Xi nodded: "Thank you, we need to know more about vampires."
He couldn't help but glance at Ye Qianqian. The embarrassed beautiful girl blushed with embarrassment and said softly: "I've seen movies and novels all like this..."
While we were talking, the tavern arrived.
The only tavern in Morningside Town is at the end of a shabby little street.
There was garbage everywhere, and it looked like it hadn't been cleaned for a long time. Even though it was broad daylight, the doors and windows of the surrounding old houses were closed, giving off a lifeless atmosphere.
The tavern is probably the only lively place in the town. Before you even get to the door, you can hear the noise and laughter coming from inside, mixed with the faint sound of harp playing.
Du Wei stopped and said: "As a priest who believes in God, I cannot enter this fallen place, and they do not welcome my appearance!"
Zhao Xi expressed his understanding and saluted the other party: "I understand, thank you for your help, Pastor Du Wei."
Du Wei shook his head: "This is my responsibility. If you need my help, please come to me in the chapel."
System prompt: Pastor Duwei’s trust level +10!
Zhao Xi watched the priest disappear into a nearby alley and said, "Let's go in and take a look."
Jingle bell~
Pushing open the greasy and dirty wooden door, the copper bell hanging on the door and window immediately rang, and a smell mixed with the smell of alcohol, sweat and inferior cosmetics rushed towards Zhao Xi's face!
This pub is not very big. The space of the house is low and depressed. There are about ten wooden wine tables, which are basically full of guests. There is a long bar on the right side of the door.
Farmers, miners, hunters, warriors... Zhao Xi glanced around casually and found that there seemed to be at least thirty or forty people inside, most of whom were professionals.
A ragged musician was leaning against the corner of the bar, feebly playing an old harp. Two girls with mediocre looks but good figures were walking through the crowd carrying drinks, teasing each other with the rude warrior hunters, and it was lively.
The scene is in sharp contrast to the depressed scene outside.
Everyone was busy drinking, chatting and having fun, and few people noticed the arrival of Zhao Xi and the others.
Zhao Xi walked to the front of the bar calmly, found a seat and sat down.
