Passing through the small street with sewage in the slum, turning the corner of the street, Zhang Xiao saw the old man sitting in front of the dilapidated hut chopping wood, the afterglow of the setting sun shone golden light on his gray hair, and the little girl was cute Place the chopped firewood neatly in the corner of the hut next to it. Zhang Xiao smiled slightly, speeding up his pace and walking towards the two of them.
"Brother Dumar! Grandpa Sam, Brother Dumar is back!" The first to see Zhang Xiao's boudoir throwing away the firewood in her hand, happily ran towards Zhang Xiao, the old man suddenly stopped raising the firewood in the air. Dao looked here in disbelief with his dim eyes open.
"Hehe, the boudoir is so good, she can help grandpa cut firewood." Zhang Xiao picked up the boudoir who was running over, and kissed his blushing cute cheek. He is the only child in Zhang Xiao's family, and he loves this well-behaved girl very much without siblings.
The boudoir in her arms giggled.
"I thought you wouldn't be back." The old man happily turned around Zhang Xiao, who was holding her boudoir. Seeing that Zhang Xiao was intact as before, he asked: "It's only a few days now, why are you so fast? I'm back? Didn't get a suitable task? It doesn't matter, just come back, haha, just come back."
Faced with the old man's self-talking nagging, Zhang Xiao couldn't laugh or cry.
"I took a task and it's finished. I'll hand it in tomorrow morning." Zhang Xiao could understand the old man's concern.
"Brother Dumar, did you bring back any fun for your boudoir?" The boudoir acted like a baby in her arms.
"Haha, boudoir, it's so late today, elder brother will buy it for you tomorrow, okay?" Zhang Xiao lightly scratched the little boudoir's nose. He came back in a hurry and really forgot to bring something for the little girl.
"Okay!" The boudoir replied without entanglement very cleverly.
"The boudoir, come down, let you rest and rest." The old man hugged the boudoir in Zhang Xiao's arms and walked into the house with the hands of the two.
Zhang Xiaomeng came back to his senses. Just now the old man called himself Duma, didn't the old man always call himself Rob
"Grandpa, do you know that I am not your son Rob?" Zhang Xiao was a little surprised. When did the old man wake up
"Grandpa knew that you weren't his son." The boudoir interjected.
"I knew it before you left. Thanks to your care, my old man really appreciates you!" The old man held Zhang Xiao's hand tightly again.
"Where, don't you let me stay here for so long." He didn't do anything, the old man's words made him a little embarrassed.
"You can tell from the fact that you have taken care of me for so long. You are a kind-hearted person. Although you are not my son, I already regard you as my son in my heart!" The old man looked at Zhang Xiao with a little excitement.
In fact, after so long together, Zhang Xiao has already regarded the old man as his elder. Hearing what the old man said, Zhang Xiao could only touch his nose and smirk.
"Boudoir, go call your mother over for dinner, let's celebrate." Boudoir happily agreed and ran out the door.
In the old man's broken house, Zhang Xiao felt the long-lost family warmth flowing wantonly.
Early the next morning, Zhang Xiao came to the mercenary guild to wait for his companions, and when everyone arrived, they would hand in the task together.
After handing in the quest items, there are still some items left in Zhang Xiao's space bag. After they are sold out, the quest bonus will be added to everyone's share.
Although the task reward was only two thousand gold coins, the bandits' materials were sold for another two thousand, which made everyone very happy. Berserker Kahn joked that everyone should go robbing the robbers. This is more cost-effective than doing the task.
Everyone laughed, but they didn't take it seriously. You must know that the dream forest is too big, and the robber den is not sure where it is.
Each of the 4000 gold coins got 650, because Robert took over the task, so he got 700. There are also 50 people who force Zhang Xiao, this is also everyone's recognition of Zhang Xiao's strength, he is embarrassed to make him.
At noon, Robert insisted on inviting everyone to dinner in a restaurant, and everyone happily went there.
There are more than 20 dishes on the table, the taste is not bad, but it is too light for Zhang Xiao who is used to spicy food.
"Duma, are you still going to do the task alone in the future?" Seeing that everyone was eating almost the same, Robert asked Zhang Xiao gently while holding the wine glass, the wine in it swirling to the rhythm.
"I don't know yet." Zhang Xiao really didn't know, the plan to join a certain mercenary group had long since disappeared.
"You are so strong, I think it is better to do the upgrade task first, so that the F-level mercenary will not always be looked down upon by some people." Berserker Kahn felt that Zhang Xiao's strength is the lowest level mercenary. A little bit injustice.
"Yes. If you have a higher level, we will have more cooperation possibilities in the future. After all, tasks that do not limit the level of mercenaries like this are still relatively rare." Archer Alex also said.
"Can you tell me about the upgrade task?" Maybe it's good to do the upgrade task. I don't just do it for money. It's better than just staying in the mercenary guild and watching the task screen.
"The upgrade tasks are randomly distributed by the Mercenary Guild. The upgrade tasks for each person, class and level are different." Robert explained to Zhang Xiao: "Like me, the task of upgrading from C to B is to kill one by myself. Earth Demon Bear."
"My most recent upgrade task was to win a sword and shield warrior who was one level higher than myself." C-rank Berserker Kahn glanced at the sword and shield warrior Alexei next to him.
"I haven't done it yet. Before I became a mercenary, I was a B-level professional." Sword and Shield Warrior Alexei ignored Kahn.
"Me too. As long as someone with a professional level joins, the mercenary guild will issue a professional badge of the same level." Archer Alix has a hint of pride in his tone. The elves who can come out as mercenaries do not have a mercenary level. Will be lower than B grade.
Zhang Xiao looked at the silent shadow, and the shadow had never spoken today.
"Don't expect him to tell you, haha! The assassin's upgrade task is strictly confidential whether in the mercenary guild or thieves guild!" Seeing Zhang Xiao looking at the shadow, Robert smiled: "The upgrade task is not rewarded. But the things obtained in the mission can belong to oneself."
"Because you are a relatively rare necromancer, I have only heard of the upgrade tasks of other mages, and I don't know about necromancers." Robert frowned and looked at everyone.
Everyone shook their heads, and it seems that they have never heard of it. Originally, Necromancer was a relatively rare profession, and most of the necromancers who practiced the Necromancer had a weird temperament and could not have many friends, so even fewer people knew about it.
