Chapter VI Temporary Team

The Adventurer Guild of the Dangdang Islands may have hundreds or thousands of tasks issued in a day. Where can one bulletin board be posted? The ones on it are often important or urgent tasks that need to be completed as soon as possible. Especially for private entrustment, if you want to go to the bulletin board, you have to pay extra fees. To put it bluntly, it is the advertising space! Most of the remaining tasks are accepted by the Adventurer consulting the receptionist and receiving from the receptionist.

As one of the only two cities on Qiongluo Island, the Tianqiong City branch has a large business volume and the size of the hall is not comparable to that of Jugen Branch. Dozens of receptionists are busy every day, providing assistance to more than 100,000 adventurers in the city.

"There is a task here for you!" After turning a few pages, Lily's eyes lit up and showed them the task: "Blue mission, investigate the flashing locust! It's not far from here, you have to travel a long distance, and you can travel around the mission area for up to one week. It's safe... As long as four people can complete the task and there are no casualties, the score you get is enough to upgrade!"

The four of them took it and saw that the general content of the task was a canyon about 30 kilometers southeast of the Sky City. A locust that flashed fluorescent appeared. Adventurers needed to investigate. If the locusts could be caught alive, they could get a reward of fifty gold coins. If they brought back the complete corpse, they could get thirty gold coins. The incomplete corpse would get up to twenty gold coins based on the degree of completeness...

"Wow, this is interesting, this is interesting!" The investigator Xiao Ye was already laughing, and the swordsman Xiuen was also very interested and eager to try. Life mage Xiao An nodded without saying a word. The three of them were optimistic about this task.

At this moment, a discordant voice appeared, and the fourth person in the team, a half-elf archer with grass-green hair, interrupted them: "Sorry, if you want to take on such an unknown task, I will not be with you..."

"Eh?" Swordsman Xiu En said regretfully: "We are clearly working so well, and this time we are just dealing with a locust..."

"It's a locust of unknown origin!" The half-elf boy shook his head and said, "The Qiongluo Continent is mysterious and it's not surprising that any monsters appear. If the mission goal is a clear known species, it's more difficult, and I can accept it, but this unpredictable danger... I'm here to make money, not to be a life-threatening one. Originally, we were just temporary partners, so I don't need to sacrifice myself for you..." As he said that, he turned to Lily: "Miss Receptionist, please write a separate ticket for my reward, I only need one quarter of it..."

Lily replied: "In principle, you can only receive one reward ticket for a task at a time. As for the rewards that are redeemed, you will be freely distributed within you..." As he said that, Lily looked at Xiuen and the others: "But if all of you agree to the division of the ticket, just write an explanation and everyone signs..."

"Okay..." Xiuen took the paper and wrote a simple explanation. After signing the letter, Lily gave them two tickets. The half-elf archer didn't even call him, and took his own copy and left.

Looking at the half-elf leaving the back, Lily said to Xiuen with some regret: "Now you lack archers, this task is not easy to do..."

"No, we still have to take it!" Xiuen insisted: "I just want to upgrade as soon as possible, so that I can challenge higher-level tasks!"

"High difficulty is not that fun!" Lily dissuaded: "Your team has rare life mages, which are considered luxurious configurations in the hunting dog-level team. If the staff is complete, I would like to introduce some challenging tasks to you, but if the number is insufficient, I can't let you die..."

"Why are you like this..." Xiuen looked regretful, and Xiao Ye begged, "Sister Lily, check if you have any idle remote professions, can you introduce them to us?"

"This... I'll take a look..." Lily opened the Adventurer's status book. Every Adventurer in Sky City would register and sign in on it. Whether she was on a mission or rest, acting alone or joining the team, it was obvious at a glance... As she looked, her eyes suddenly raised and she looked at the bulletin board.

"Yes, why did you forget him?" Lily shouted to the loudspeaker: "Mr. Zhao Qiankun, Window No. 10..."

Zhao Qiankun, who was looking at the bulletin board, was stunned when he heard someone calling his name. He turned around and saw a beautiful sister smiling at him, and pointed at himself. Seeing the beautiful woman waved to him, he walked over in a square step.

"Small changes, what's the matter with me?"

Lily looked at Zhao Qiankun’s personal information: “You are Mr. Zhao Qiankun, a hunting adventurer, and your profession is… a shooter right?” Seeing Zhao Qiankun nodding and confirming, she smiled and said, “I noticed that you have not joined any team yet, and there are no ongoing tasks. I have a three-person team here now, which just happens to be lacking a remote profession. I wonder if you are considering joining and participating in the adventure with them?”

Zhao Qiankun looked back and looked at the three young men, a young man with a 10-year-old appearance, tall and handsome, wearing a chain mail, a bra armor, a round shield that looked very old on the back, and a long sword on his waist. Looking at the calluses on the tiger's mouth, he should be a skilled swordsman.

A slim oriental girl next to her looks sixteen or seventeen years old, with short hair, big eyes dripping and eccentric. She was wearing light leather armor, soft-soled leather boots that lowered the sound of footsteps, and a short knife and dagger on her waist.

On the other side, there is a blonde girl holding a staff and wearing a short robe. She looks similar to an oriental girl last year, but her temperament is more stable.

These three guys are all young enough, Zhao Qiankun blinked: "Are these three reliable?"

"What did you say?" As soon as he spoke, Xiuen and the other two stopped doing it: "We are about to be promoted to the leopard level adventurer, look at you..." As he said that, the three of them looked at the hound-level badge on his chest: "I haven't seen you in the city before, can't you be a novice?"

If Zhao Qiankun was a rough man with a thirty or forty years old, a rough beard and full of flesh, these three people might have considered it. Maybe he was a veteran adventurer from another continent, but he was just demoted here. But Zhao Qiankun was about the same age as them, and he looked thin and tender, and he didn't even have a calluse on his hands. He was not like a master who practiced martial arts all year round... They were all novices, so what was there to be arrogant!
