Chapter 147 Sky-high commissions, make plans(1/2)
"No way, so fast?"
As soon as Geralt finished speaking, Gordon spoke subconsciously.
Not only Gordon, but also Yevni was a little stunned: the news just sent the night before yesterday, and the reward task was announced today. How can the efficiency of the Santa Feidiers City Hall be so fast?
Xina and Leia's reactions were quite good.
The former is still very young, and although he has good strength, in this world it is not only the strong who can understand everything, there are still many things that Sheena does not understand.
The latter is similar to Leia. Although she has been a sorceress for many years, she only knows what she is interested in.
"Of course, although I am also a little curious."
"But the reward notice for finding the Necromancer has indeed been posted on the notice board in the South Square."
Facing the doubts of the four people, Geralt took a sip of hot milk and said with a smile.
"Listening to what you said, it must be true. The City Hall of Santa Fidels City is much more cautious than we thought."
Gordon said calmly as usual.
In fact, I am already a little excited: then the next step is to find the undead wizard and confirm his identity.
According to his analysis, there is a high possibility that the necromancer is Nicholas Nelson, the "plague maker" who needs to be killed in the system mission.
"The court sorcerer next to King Saint Fidel V who now takes office in the Kingdom of Saint Fidel is a sorcerer of the same level as me in our Association of Sorceresses."
"She was by my side when the news came from the Dathrasl Forest the day before yesterday. She must have explained the danger and terror of the necromancer to Saint Fidel V."
"Otherwise, with the efficiency of a city's city hall, it would never be so fast..."
Yevni said.
"Then, shall we go to Kolubel Village?"
At this time, Leia suddenly asked.
When Leia asked this question, several people fell silent for a moment.
"Of course... I won't go."
"Looking for the undead wizard and dealing with the undead wizard is such a major task. I think I can't miss it, and I don't want to miss it..."
Soon, Gordon shook his head and said.
His only mission in this world is to kill the plague maker.
It has been decided that the necromancer has appeared in the dangerous south, and Gordon has to go alone to confirm it.
At this time, the official gave the task, so many people could accompany him to investigate and search.
Gordon was both happy and a little worried.
The matter is so big, what if the identity of the person is really the one he is looking for, and then someone else kills him first.
I don’t know if I will have completed my mission by then.
In this case, Gordon naturally had to follow up immediately.
Gordon was the first to express his attitude, which did not surprise Evonne and Geralt.
Both of them could tell that Gordon was very concerned about this matter.
This has been the case for Gordon since Yevni deduced the existence of the necromancer when a few people left the Dathrasl Forest.
Of course, the two of them didn't think much about it, just thinking that Gordon had a good personality.
When he was in the big forest, Gordon felt sympathy for the huge tree spirit and said that he would save him.
"By the way, does the notice posted in the city hall state the amount of the mission reward commission?"
Gordon looked at Geralt and continued to ask.
"Of course there is. The first one to discover the exact traces of the undead wizard can get a huge commission of two hundred gold coins."
"Whoever can kill the necromancer can get a sky-high commission of one thousand gold coins."
"This is the first time I've seen a mission with a thousand gold coins commission!"
Geralt nodded and smiled, feeling a little emotional.
"Just for discovering it, there will be two hundred gold coins in commission, and for killing a thousand, it's really a sky-high price..."
After hearing Geralt's words, Gordon also sighed.
He was not pretending, he was truly sighing.
Although Gordon seems to have made a lot of money during this period, the total gold coins he has obtained now are less than a thousand gold coins, which is still several hundred gold coins short.
Of course, it would be different if he sold some of his precious treasures.
Gordon sighed, and Xinalea was convinced that this was the first time in their lives that they had seen such a sky-high price mission.
Even when I was in Forovdo Town, the commission for the task of finding the truth behind the plague issued by the city hall was not as good as this task.
"Don't be too busy sighing, the commission may be more than this, far more than that."
At this time, Yevni suddenly shook her head and said.
"What's the meaning?"
Xina asked immediately.
"Don't forget, this is just a mission commission from the Kingdom of Saint Fidel..."
When Eveni said this, Gordon understood instantly.
Yes, this is the mission reward issued by the Kingdom of Saint Fidel. There are several other kingdoms in the north.
Once the necromancer appears in the north, it will harm the entire north, not a single kingdom.
If other kingdoms issued bounties for commissioned tasks, how much would the bounties and commissions add up to...
When Evonne spoke, not only Gordon thought of it, but Geralt also reacted immediately.
There are six large and small kingdoms in the north in total. How many commissions and rewards can the six kingdoms add up to?
Thinking of this, Geralt's eyes instantly lit up, and he even started breathing a little faster.
"The Alliance of Northern Kingdoms consists of six kingdoms, large and small. If all six kingdoms issued bounties for commissioned tasks against necromancers, just think about how much the combined commissions would amount to..."
Eveni continued.
It's just that when it came to this, Xina and Leia understood it immediately after hearing this, no matter how slow they reacted.
"Oh my god..."
"One kingdom is a commission of one thousand gold coins. If there are six kingdoms, then there is a commission of six thousand gold coins..."
"Oh my god, this mission..."
Xina was shocked and immediately covered her mouth when she realized her voice was too loud.
"If we can complete the task of killing the necromancer, will other kingdoms honor the commission? Will there be a situation where some of them honor it, but others refuse to honor it?"
Leia also asked at this time.
"Don't worry about this. For such an important matter, a reward announcement is publicly posted. Although the commission is sky-high for us, it is nothing to a kingdom."
"No king would be so short-sighted. Even if the king is short-sighted, his ministers and staff will not sit idly by."
"Unless the other party didn't issue such a mission in the first place."
"What's more, the six northern kingdoms have long been allied together. The Kingdom of San Feidil has issued a mission bounty announcement for the necromancer, and other kingdoms will definitely follow suit. We will just wait and see..."
Geralt shook his head and said slowly.
"Then now, we don't have to think about going to Kolubel Village, and we are specifically looking for the traces of the necromancer?"
Xina asked excitedly.
"Well, I think there's no need to worry too much..."
"We must have accepted the mission of the Necromancer, but now we don't have any clues. It's useless to search blindly."
"On the contrary, I think the plague in Kolubel Village may be related to the necromancer."
"The other party can pollute the Dathrasl forest like that. Naturally, it can also infect humans with the plague. What's more, this kind of thing is very simple for the necromancer."
"What do you think?"
Geralt put down the tableware, folded his hands in front of his chest and spoke in a deep voice.
"Well, it is entirely possible. There is also a plague in two villages in Forovdo town that is similar to the plague in Kolubel village."
"Thinking about it this way, if we haven't found any other clues yet, we can indeed go to Kolubel Village to look for clues."
Gordon nodded and said.
He had actually thought of this a long time ago, but since the mission of the Necromancer hadn't come out yet, he definitely couldn't say anything about it.
But it's just right for Geralt to say it now.
Gordon was a little anxious when he heard the city hall announced the mission of the Necromancer.
To be continued...
