Chapter 57 Mission (1)
As soon as he said this, the Baron, who had been sitting opposite Romon and waiting for the answer, suddenly showed a smile on his thin long face.
"Okay, okay, okay." He even said three good words in a row, which showed how good the Baron was in this moment.
"Romon, you are indeed a person who truly serves the town. I did not read you wrongly. Only if you do this kind of thing, I can rest assured, hahaha. Don't worry, as long as the forest map can be drawn well, I will fulfill today's promise and give you a piece of land of escorts."
Seeing that the other party was successfully hooked, the Baron was happy and unexpectedly discovered that the young man who had annoyed him as soon as he saw him looked at it and he was a little pleasing to him.
The boy standing opposite him secretly pulled the corner of his mouth after hearing his praise. He maintained a respectful expression on the surface, but in his heart, Romon had already cursed the other party to the point of being completely useless.
Although the other party praised him very well from the beginning, Romon was not a person who would be dizzy if he was praised for a few words. What's more, Romon had already seen it when the Baron said what he said just now. This lord seemed not very friendly to him.
Although the Baron concealed his expression very well, as a second-level druid, Romon had obviously sensed it.
However, Romon decided to accept the task and draw a map of the Thorn Forest.
In fact, before making this decision, Romon thought a lot. Part of the reason why he finally agreed to the Baron's proposal was forced by the situation.
In addition, this entourage leader is very touching. The free people generally have dozens of acres of land, while the entourage only has two or three hundred acres. Although there are not many acres of land, they are already close to the noble privileged class. If they were in ancient times on earth, it would be equivalent to being a scholar!
The third reason is that Romon has encountered a bottleneck in martial arts practice at this time, and it is difficult to make further progress through training.
Fafer's situation is similar to that of him. After gaining the strength of a second-level warrior, although he practiced harder, his progress in martial arts has become slower and slower. In recent days, not only has he not made any progress, but he still has signs of stagnation in martial arts.
This situation not only made Fafell, a man who vowed to become a great warrior, but also Romon was very depressed.
But I heard that only by experiencing real fighting can we truly train our martial arts.
Because of this, entering the depths of the Thorn Forest is only a matter of time for Romon. Since the Baron asked him to go this time, he simply regarded this experience as a training of martial arts.
Maybe after he comes back, it is unknown what improvements his martial arts can be achieved. What's more, his combat power at this time is not as weak as outsiders have seen.
Moreover, since the baron had already had malicious intentions towards him, even if he did not agree to this matter, who would know that the other party would come up with something else. Taking a step back, even if all the above reasons were not true, the other party's conditions were enough to make him fight.
Draw a map and after the matter is over, you will get a piece of his own entourage land. This is exactly what Romon urgently needs at present, so for this condition, he also has to take a try.
"Romong, this is a contract for the mission, a total of three, one of which is for you, one is left to me, and the other will be temporarily stored in the temple for custody. Since you have accepted this task, then sign it on it." Seeing that Romon agreed, the baron was happy, and did not forget to take out the contract prepared in advance.
This kind of contract is an agreement that someone on this continent must sign when accepting a task. It is mainly to restrict the behavior of the party receiving the task. After all, if there is no constraint, if someone accepts the task but fails to complete it, it will often cause losses to the party who publishes the task.
However, on the other hand, it also rationalized and legalized the task. Romon was originally planning to go to the forest, so he naturally signed his name on the contract without hesitation. As the party who issued the task, the Baron's seal had long been printed on it.
Seeing that the baron ordered people to send one of the contracts to the temple, Romon also stood up and said goodbye. Then, with a contract, he walked out under the guidance of the guard who brought him over.
Seeing Romon's figure gradually disappear from his sight, a smile suddenly appeared on the Baron's face. Then, in a very good mood, he ordered his servants to prepare a sumptuous meal.
Today, he is ready to celebrate. He is so smart that he can come up with such a perfect solution, which not only solves his daughter's problem, but also makes people unable to find fault.
The more the Baron thought about it, the more proud he became.
After holding the contract, Romon left the castle and walked towards the town while planning who to form a team with. It would definitely not be possible to go alone. Although he already has the strength of a first-level warrior, entering the depths of the Thorn Forest can you encounter any danger. Just a first-level warrior is not enough to stuff the monsters between them.
If you team up with the Adventurer, as the Baron said just now, because he is a druid and has the ability to heal wounds, Adventurers will definitely welcome him to join.
However, it is not Romon's style to work with unfamiliar people. In that dangerous environment, fighting side by side with a group of people who cannot understand each other is a terrifying thing.
So, after thinking about it, Romon set his sights on the Hawave team, which was relatively more familiar to him.
The captain of Haiwavi's team has a good relationship with him, and he is also generous and righteous. He has saved the people in the team, so working with them should be a good choice.
Thinking of this, Romon speeded up. Although the contract signed with the Baron stipulated a year, it was not much time to use during this year, eliminating the cold winter and heavy rainy summer.
Soon, the commercial area of Ricca Town appeared in front of me. Romon first returned to the pharmacy store and took a look. Seeing that the business was going on as usual, everything was arranged in an orderly manner by Nick, he walked out with confidence.
Following the not-wide street in Ricca Town, he planned to go to the Met Hotel to see if the people of the Haiwave Squad were there. Half a month ago, the Haiwave Squad entered the forest. If he didn't travel too far, he should be able to come back.
It was coincidental that he had just walked a few steps away and was called back by a member of the Haiwave team who came to the pharmacy store for medical treatment. When he returned to the pharmacy store, he found that in the lobby of the store, the captain of the Haiwave team was sitting on the chair placed in the store with a pale face.
The appearance of Romon made the other team members around the captain's eyes lit up and they hurriedly introduced the situation to Romon.
It turned out that they were planning to go deep in the forest this time, but on the way, Haiwawei, the captain, was suddenly bitten by a poisonous insect. Although they carried healing medicine with them, they were of no use in healing. There was no way, so the team had to take the captain out of the forest and come here to treat it.
Because the journey was not short, although some of the team members used some method to temporarily suppress the spread of insect poison, when they returned to the town, Captain Haiwawei still looked half-dead.
Because there are always poisonous insects on the earth, Romon has really studied this when he is free after opening a pharmacy shop. Seeing that Captain Haiwave was only bitten by ordinary poisonous insects, his current weakness was also due to delayed treatment, so Romon was not very worried.
Sure enough, after his treatment, the person who was still half dead just now jumped up again.
"Romong, it's fortunate that you are there." Captain Hevavi took out a small bag of silver coins without seeing how many, so he handed them to Romon directly.
Romon did not answer this time. Seeing Captain Haiwave looking at him in confusion, he explained: "Captain Haiwave, take back the money. I happen to have one thing to ask you." Then he told me that he wanted to enter the forest with the team of Haiwave to complete the Baron's mission.
After hearing Romon's words, the people from the Haiwavi team were stunned at first, and then cheered.
"Romon, is this true? That's great! We welcome you!" Captain Hevavi was overjoyed after being surprised. He could not receive timely treatment. This is a problem that many adventurers would encounter when entering the deep forest. There are countless adventurers who died or failed in their missions.
Take them for example. This time, he was about to reach the depths of the forest. It was because he was injured by poisonous insects and lacked timely treatment, which led to the mission ending with the retreat of the entire team.
After all, as the soul of a team, if you lose the command of the captain, and the rest of the people will not play any important role.
And if a druid joins the team, it will be of great help to them.
Romon is not asking for help, it is clearly a timely help.
Other team members who had the same idea as Captain Hevavi looked at Romon with great enthusiasm. The few people who had been healed by Romon even shouted welcome words.
