Chapter 18 It seems that I am still suitable for a person
"Is this the legendary magic core?" I asked curiously as I looked at the sparkling crystal in Gal's hand.
"Yes, this is the magic crystal. Girls should like these shiny things. Little sister Qin Xin finally showed her girly side." Before Gal could say anything, Mark on the side intervened.
"Yes, I just like these shiny things. Maybe you have some in your head, uncle." I pulled out the bloody knife and looked at Gal with a malicious look on my face, as if I was studying where to cut the knife.
It seems relatively effortless.
"Hey, hey, this joke is not funny at all. I am a wounded person, don't scare me." Gal shouted with a look of "horror" on his face.
"Let's go. If you hurry up, you might be able to catch the carriage going back to another place." Gal said calmly, putting the magic crystal in his arms.
"no problem."
I carried the bearskin package wrapped in bear paws on my back, and Gal helped the injured Mark and returned along the original path.
After waiting for a while by the roadside, a carriage transporting mercenaries on a mission further afield slowly appeared in the distance.
I have to say that the experience of veteran mercenaries is that they are powerful.
When we returned to "Crow" City, it was already evening. Mark was carried into the clinic next to the mercenary union. After the treatment, it was completely dark.
"Let's go to the union." Gal, who walked out of the clinic with me, said to me.
After handing over the mission at the counter, my mercenary badge was replaced with an iron E-class mercenary badge.
After the verification magic core confirmed the true strength of the mission target, in addition to the original mission reward, an additional 5 gold coins were distributed as compensation.
Including the gold coins from selling the magic core, this mission has a reward of 30 gold coins.
"Captain, what are you going to do next?" After getting my 18 gold coins, I looked up at Gal.
"Wait until Gal recovers from his injury before going out on missions. It will probably be more than ten days later. Is there anything wrong?" Gal looked down at me.
"Well, I do have something to do. Doing missions with you is not suitable for me to improve my strength. I plan to go out alone." After hesitating for a while, I said to Gal.
"You can leave if you want, and we'll meet again when we have time." Gal said with an indifferent expression.
"Take care and say hello to Mark for me. I'll treat you to a drink when you have time."
I waved goodbye and then walked to the hotel across the street.
Putting the gold coins in his hand, Gal turned back and walked into the bar in the union.
Leaving the team and going out to practice alone was not a temporary decision, but a careful decision after a detailed discussion with Gal in the afternoon.
Most of the mercenaries like Mark and Gal, except those who are just hanging around, usually practice fighting spirit and only come out for hunting missions when they need to practice or are short of money.
Few people plan to be mercenaries for the rest of their lives, and more people choose to become mercenaries in order to improve their strength.
Even if Mark is not injured, the next mission will be at least ten days away.
However, this pace of life is not suitable for me.
If you want to go home, you need stronger strength to travel to various parts of the mainland to find a way home.
If you want to be powerful, the most direct and fastest way is to use the attribute growth brought by improving skill levels to strengthen yourself.
Currently, the fastest way to improve your skill level is to keep fighting.
Not only can you get a lot of skill points, but you can also solve training items during the battle.
Therefore, I plan to not accept the mercenary mission and go out hunting directly.
Rely on the funds you have and carry out crazy killings. As long as you don't die, your strength will increase.
But speaking of going into the wild alone, it seems like there are a lot of things to prepare.
I got up early the next morning and went to the office in Kerry City.
Kerry City has been sparsely populated since the last Warcraft attack. In order to attract the population, the housing prices in Kerry City are currently quite cheap.
I spent 50 gold coins to buy a house at the end of the street where the Mercenary Union is located. This house is in a small alley branched off from the main road.
The house is divided into front and back halls. The front hall can be used as a shop, and the back hall can be used as a place for people to live.
I chose this house mainly because of the enclosed small yard in the back room. With this small yard, it seems that I can do a lot of things.
After paying another 1 gold coin in property tax, I successfully obtained the documents and house keys.
When I opened the house I just acquired, I couldn't help but be filled with emotions.
I couldn’t afford to buy a house even though I worked so hard on this earth, but now I can easily own my own house. What does this mean?
After spending most of the day cleaning the room, I went to the mercenary market to buy back a lot of materials, and then started to make crazy productions in seclusion.
I bought a set of ready-made iron melting furnaces and blacksmithing tools, melted the purchased iron blocks, repeatedly hammered and refined them into steel, and then poured them into the already completed mold.
After cooling, smash the clay shell, and a metal bow appears in front of you.
After polishing, stringing the bow, and wrapping a belt around the handle, a steel longbow is completed.
Roll up the cut steel bars and put them in a disc shell to make a torsion spring that can be pulled out and retracted.
Connect the steel wire and tie the belt, and a portable clockwork spring device is completed.
Used with other tools, the wire can be easily shot out and retracted.
With the remaining iron blocks, he made more than a hundred pure iron arrows for himself.
The durability of pure iron arrows is higher than that of ordinary feather arrows sold in union stores, and they can be recycled and reused many times, thus preventing the dilemma of not having enough arrows in the wild.
The remaining materials were used to make a new set of hand protective shoes. Well, they are purely reinforced with steel. Although they are relatively bulky, they are absolutely strong.
After all the equipment is completed, the total weight exceeds 80 kilograms.
Fortunately, I already have about five times the strength of a normal person, so I won't be crushed by the weight.
After purchasing a large amount of dry food, we hired a carriage to go to the destination we had chosen in a calm and sunny weather.
------Dividing line------
"Boss, I'm absolutely right. That little girl lived here last time."
A man with a thief-like head and rat-like eyes said to the huge man standing at the leader's position. This huge, muscular man was actually Renault!
"I know, keep an eye on this place. When this little girl appears, notify me, and then find a place where no one is around to kill her." Renault said with a fierce look on his face.
"Okay, boss, I'll find someone right now..."
Before he could finish his words, Luo Luo, who was just about to find someone to come and keep an eye on him, saw the front door of the house being opened and a girl wearing a blouse walked out.
"Stay away and follow me. In order to heal the pain in my knees, I will vent it out a hundred times." The bulging muscles in his arms bulged with veins, easily crushing the stone in his hand.
"Okay... okay boss, I'll make arrangements right away." Looking at the shattered stones, Xiao Luo Luo couldn't help but swallowed and stammered.
Unfortunately, the group of people didn't follow very far when they saw the little girl hailing a carriage, getting in and driving out of the city.
"Where did that little girl go just now?" He grabbed the stall owner near the carriage just now, veins bulged on Renault's face, and he yelled at the person he captured.
"Okay... It seems to be some kind of East Hill Forest area." The man who was arrested said in fear.
"Find a car, Dongbian Qiulin" threw the man in his hand aside and yelled at the younger brother behind him.
"Wait and see, damn girl, I will make you look good. I won't let you die easily, hehehehe." Seeing his younger brother running out to find the carriage, Renault said with a gloomy look.
