Views:

There are only two or three kittens in the guild hall, but they are basically paying attention to the task board. After seeing the blue font representing S-level tasks, they all showed their surprised expressions, and then conditioned reflex to find another unique S-level or above. , and sure enough, it was followed by a task progress display that had been accepted.

It is self-evident who the recipient is.

At the same time, the mission system of the mercenary trade union updated the news synchronously, and all the members of the mercenary trade union with mission crystal boards above level 2 saw it.

The name Xiwei actually gained popularity on the mainland for the first time in this way.

The quest levels of the mercenary guild are divided in this way, the s-level tasks are issued to the guild itself, and do not need to be hired by another person to complete them, the ss-level tasks are issued to the mercenaries, and the sss-level tasks are issued by the guild, and the difficulty is different. It doesn't matter much, just like the difference between picking one star from the sky and two stars.

It's hard anyway.

After the mission was released, Xi Wei silently looked at the relevant instructions for missions above S-rank. This was an exquisite booklet, with very few words on it, but more patterns. The designer was very considerate, and the words were simple and easy to understand. of.

The title page of the booklet introduces the origin of the division of tasks above the s-level, but it is only a few pictures like a comic book. The general content is that in the last era, the founder of the mercenary union fought against the invasion of the demons in order to integrate the armed forces of the continent. , created such a system. At first, the task of the union was to hunt down demons. Later, the demons retreated, and free organizations such as the mercenary union were left behind and became one of the behemoths on the continent.

And the regulations on the release and acceptance of S-level tasks, in the final analysis, are actually just a kind of goodwill.

The founder believes that if what a person wants to do is worth his own life to exchange, then as long as it is not harmful, he might as well help.

When people are desperate, it is conceivable how important this kind of selfless kindness is. After all, there are always some things in the world that are more important than life.

So this rule has been handed down, and many people call the founders truly good people.

Evan is obviously familiar with this rule, but he didn't expect that such a thing would happen to him, and it also had a relationship with himself and his sister.

At the same time, he also felt regret and guilt. Regrettably, Xi Wei may die in the sss-level mission in the near future. The guilt is that this matter may be caused by Jonia, but Xi Wei is the one who This paid the price of life.

The plague demon is an existence that is famous among demons, not to mention a junior warrior like Xiwei, even an ordinary god is not necessarily his opponent, and those who existed in the first era once sealed the plague The demon gods are long gone.

In a small town next to the Nightmare Forest on the far western frontier, a brown-haired warrior-like man frowned and sat up from the bed, saying to himself, "Someone has taken the task of sealing the plague demon. City?"

Then the man mysteriously disappeared from the spot.

The registrar was recording the changes in the tasks. Tonight, a new S-level task was born in his hands, which made his heart beat fast, and his palms were full of nervous sweat. He has been a registrar for many years. To be honest, Suddenly I'm not sure if the flow of the S-level mission is really like this, could I make a mistake

He repeatedly looked at the registration form, the blockade of Puluo City was a major event, if he made a mistake, his life would be over!

While the registrar was so tangled, he felt as if there was a cold wind blowing across his forehead, so he could not help shrinking his neck, and when he raised his head, a young man with brown hair suddenly appeared in front of him.

The registrar was startled, and stammered, "This... sir, what's the matter?"

The brown-haired youth put a purple badge on the desk, and the registrar was immediately awe-inspiring. The purple badge can only be held at the level of the union manager. Only those who have made major contributions and held some important positions can have it. , This young man looks young, but he is obviously a big man.

The young man said, "Tell me the latest news about the mission above S-rank, and then bring the publisher of that new mission to meet me."

The tone is not overbearing, but because of his identity, the registrar will also be enshrined.

Xi Wei was studying the booklet carefully, and his paralyzed face couldn't tell whether he was afraid or not. The registrar muttered that he was really a weirdo, wouldn't he be a lunatic for entertainment

However, he still coughed to attract Xi Wei's attention, and then tried his best to say in a formulaic tone, "Junior mercenary Xi Wei, regarding the execution details of the S-level tasks you released, you need to confirm with our manager in person. I can register a major event like the city closure for you, but I don't have the right to execute it."

Xi Wei nodded silently, put the booklet aside, got up and followed the registrar. In fact, God knows, he didn't read anything just now, and his whole mind was empty.

The brown-haired man also looked up at the crystal panel on the ceiling like the others, and he didn't know what to think of when he saw it. A faint arc appeared at the corner of his mouth, softening his stern face a little.

The registrar respectfully came behind him, "Sir, the task issuer is here."

The man nodded to indicate that he understood, but he turned around and was surprised by Xi Wei's youth. He didn't expect that the one who had such courage was a teenager who looked like he was only in his teens, although the boy's calm temperament was not like his age. should have.

The brown-haired samurai waved his hand, and the clamor in the hall disappeared immediately. Xiwei conditioned reflexively to smell the dangerous breath on the man, and couldn't help feeling trembling and fear.

They were surrounded by a transparent energy field, isolating others from the outside world. The brown-haired man raised his finger and pointed to the ceiling, "Do you know what the mission of sealing the plague demon means?"

nod.

"Then Xiwei, why do you want to block Puluo City? Even if such a big city is blocked for one day, the impact will be huge."

Xi Wei looked at him without dodging, "The Mercenary Union, can't you abide by the rules you set yourself?"

The brown-haired man choked for a moment. He didn't expect that his words would make Xi Wei feel that the union couldn't do it. In fact, he was just curious. Originally, he was holding on to see who took over the sss-level task. The weak boy did not seem to be here to complete the task.

It seems a little regretful to think that this young man will die in the near future, but rules are rules, and rules are not meant to be broken.

So the man said sternly, "Of course not, but you have to tell me the reason for the closure of the city, otherwise the union will not be able to explain it to the city, and if it is a detrimental thing, then it itself does not conform to the rules, and the union can refuse. "

Xi Wei paused for a moment and seemed to organize the language, "There is a child, he disappeared, someone kidnapped, they cannot be let out of the city."

"your child?"

his child? Thinking of a certain little guy who persistently shouted for five years, Xi Wei nodded and admitted.

The brown-haired man carefully inquired about what happened. After getting a satisfactory answer, he waved his hand to remove the energy field that isolated the surrounding area, and then said, "Don't worry, within three days, I will give you a satisfactory answer. As for sss This is a high-level task, wait for the notification, and go when you are notified."

Early the next morning, some residents of Puluo City were surprised to find that they could not leave the city. They asked the guards who were guarding the city, but they were also confused. It was not until people found the notice posted on the city gate that they suddenly realized.

An old lady with a vegetable basket shook her head, "What a sin, it seems that I can't eat leaf shoots outside the city today."

There are still many such discussions, but more of them are anger at terrorists. Dare to kidnap people in the holy city, it is simply daring!

Unconsciously, all the residents of Puluo City began to pay attention to suspicious people to see who they were, so frantic.

In the dark underground passage, Gal paced irritably, "I knew that Belle was a troublesome woman, how could the task she gave her be so easy, so she was waiting for us here."

"Lyon" admired his frantic look for a while, and suggested, "It seems that this child caused the closure of the city. His Highness Evan does not have such energy now, why don't we return this child and everything will be solved easily. ."

Gal's eyes were gloomy, "Miss Lilith, aren't you a space magister? Why can't you even do things like leaving the city?"

Lilith smiled slightly, "Puluo City is called a holy city, and naturally there is a reason for it. Since the city is sealed, unless it is a god, no one can pass its blockade magic circle, otherwise, wouldn't the city be a joke?"

Gal clenched his fists angrily at her indifferent attitude, but he took into account the fact that Lilith was the leader and did not dare to be presumptuous. He could only curse viciously in his heart that the duke's illegitimate daughter would never get the family. Approved.

After a brief silence, Lilith said, "Anyway, let's contact Belle first to see if the future Holy Maiden of Light has any good ideas."

Princess Jonia and Kino, who were in the dark, were still groping in the dark. Jonia instinctively hugged the only heat source around her and fell asleep because she was so tired. Be clear about what you're talking about.

Kino opened his eyes, and even though he couldn't see anything, he didn't want to close it. After all, as a fragile girl magician, Jonia could fall asleep. She knew very well that Kino, who was in a difficult situation, was not so wide. heart.

He didn't believe it, the other party took great pains to kidnap the two of them just to let them ferment here, and then wait for a few years to find out, ah, there are two skeletons here.

Sure enough, after a night, Chino felt that their position had changed from the original dullness to a slight flow of air, and then the female magician's neutral voice sounded, "Oh, little sister is in good spirits, always Didn't you sleep?"

Kino opened his mouth and decided to follow her words, "Sister, where is this place, why is it so dark all the time, I'm afraid of the dark and can't sleep."

Then he stretched out his hand and rubbed his eyes, and shrank into Jonia's arms with a look of being so tired and scared that he couldn't sleep.

There was a hint of pity in Lilith's eyes. I didn't know what would happen if this poor "little girl" fell into the hands of Belle. However, they had to abide by the agreement and hand Chino to Belle, otherwise this trip would not only be in vain. If you run away, you may take your own life.

Thinking of this, Lilith was ruthless and gave way to Belle behind her, exposing Chino to this future saint of light.

With an impatient face, Belle reached out and lifted Kino by the collar. After a closer look, she felt that there was nothing special about it. Why was she able to impress her father and let him take this inexplicable kid as his apprentice?

Lilith said, "Miss Belle, man, I have already handed it over to you. When can we arrange for us to leave the city?"

Bellie held Chino in her hands, but she didn't show much effort. It was obviously from the dual cultivation of magic and martial arts. She frowned her beautiful brows and said impatiently, "Tonight, I'll take this kid away."
