Chapter 33 Investigation Mission (please follow up)
Out of gratitude for the old man's concern, Richard immediately stopped hiding: "Your Excellency, I have learned the Grasp of Shadows, and I will not consider other witchcraft in the short term. Currently, I plan to Focus on improving your basic knowledge so that you can complete tasks in the wild easily."
The old man nodded subconsciously. Suddenly, when he came back to his senses, he was shocked and asked: "What are you talking about? You learned the Grasp of Shadow in half a month. ? How is this possible!"
Richard saw the old man's shocked expression and thought to himself, fortunately, he still had reservations. If he said that he had reached the level of proficiency, he didn't know what the old man would think.
The old man suddenly looked quite disappointed and waved his hand, apparently not wanting to communicate with Richard anymore.
When Richard saw this, he also looked confused and didn't know why, but he still politely saluted and left the library.
The old man behind him sighed heavily. For him who has been in the third-level wizard apprenticeship stage for nearly twenty years, he has never seen a genius. Learning the Shadow Grasp in half a month is just for newcomers. It’s absolutely impossible in the Chief!
I remember that the leader of the last batch of students seemed to be a black-haired girl. She learned the Shadow Grip in about a month, which is already an incredible talent!
Richard, who had just returned to his dormitory, planned to read the "Dictionary of Common Monsters in the Silt Swamp" for a while and then go to the mission area to see if there were any missions suitable for solo completion. He didn't want to kill monsters alone, but wanted to In actual combat, accumulate experience, complete some collection tasks, and earn points and magic stones.
An hour later, Richard arrived at the mission hall and carefully stared at the missions on the stone wall in the center of the hall, looking for a suitable mission.
After a while, Richard fell in love with two tasks.
The first one is the collection task [Collect Shadow Grass]. A certain third-level wizard apprentice of the school needs three fresh shadow grass for potion testing. The reward is six points and five magic stones, but the task has a time limit and requires Completed in two days.
Shadow grass is a relatively common herb in mud swamps. It is distributed everywhere, so it is not difficult to find it.
The second is the patrol mission [Cleaning up Swamp Solitary Spiders]. The number of various spiders near the school's headquarters has recently begun to increase, and they attack people coming from time to time. Please kill twenty Swamp Solitary Spiders within a week. The mission will reward ten points. and eight magic stones.
The Swamp Solitary Spider is the lowest level spider monster. It likes to live alone. Its combat power is lower than that of the Crystal Web Spider. It can be regarded as the best target for Richard to train with.
Although the notes suggested that several first-level wizard apprentices form a team to complete these two tasks, Richard thought that with his current strength, he could basically complete them independently.
However, before accepting the mission, some preparations need to be made. Having experienced the last mission, Richard feels that no matter how confident he is, life-saving potions and alchemical bombs to deal with emergencies are still indispensable!
After all, the sky has unpredictable events, and people have misfortunes and blessings!
Richard, who had just returned to his dormitory, took the magic stone and prepared to go to the trading area to buy some potions and alchemy products. Unexpectedly, just as he was about to set off, he heard a "dong dong dong" knock on the door.
When Richard opened the door and took a look, he saw Stephana in a gray robe standing at the door.
"Richard, don't you invite me to come in and sit for a while?" Stephana said with a smile.
"If you have anything to do, just tell her directly!" Richard blocked the door. He was still quite troubled by this Stepina.
He wanted to keep a distance, but the other party kept coming!
Stephana smoothed her hair around her ears, pursed her red lips and said, "Richard, did you have any misunderstandings about me? But these things have passed and are not important. What is important is that I have news here. , you will definitely be interested."
Richard thought for a while, but still wanted to see what kind of medicine was sold in this white lotus gourd, so he stepped aside to give up his position and said, "Come in."
Stephana gave Richard a proud look. , wandering into Richard's dormitory.
After pouring a glass of water for Stephana, Richard also sat down and said, "You can talk now."
"Recently, I heard that there are reports of monsters appearing in many places in the Heron Kingdom. Although most of them are low-level monsters, for ordinary families, this is already very dangerous." Having said this, Stephana He stopped and stared at Richard with his beautiful eyes.
Richard's pupils shrank, thinking of the tree demon that the family had worked together to kill before. Indeed, even low-level monsters are not something that ordinary families can easily kill, and they have to pay the price in blood!
"But I can help you and protect your family from being affected." Stephana flicked her nails lightly and said with a smile.
There is no free lunch in the world. Richard looked calm and asked in a deep voice: "Tell me, what are your conditions? But first you have to prove that you can help me!" "Don't worry about this, as long as you agree, tonight I will contact my uncle, Earl Harris of Rosby County, through special channels, and ask him to ensure the safety of your family. In Rosby County, I think you should also have heard of the Harris family!" Richard nodded
. , he knew that Stephana was telling the truth. The strength of a hereditary earl was very important in mortal society, and there were usually special channels to recruit professionals to kill monsters.
I remember that last time, Count Harris arranged for the second-level wizard apprentice Stefano to investigate the monster incident in the Richard family.
"Oh, keep going!" Richard said calmly.
Richard's calm look made the admiration in Stephana's eyes even stronger.
"My conditions are very simple. I want you to join my team and help me complete a mission. As you know, the school's semi-annual assessment requires each of us to obtain more than 30 points. I want to complete it as soon as possible.
" That's the condition?"
"That's the condition! If you agree, the safety of your family will be on me!" Stephana said confidently.
Richard glanced at her suspiciously and asked, "What kind of mission is it?"
He felt that it was not that simple.
"The school has released a new investigation mission. The content is to investigate the spider trail in the southwest of the silt swamp and find out the reason for the abnormal increase in the number of spiders there. The reward is 50 points and 25 magic stones. All the points belong to me. If you want the magic stone, you can You will be given half, and the other half will be divided equally between the remaining three people in the team.
You know that the spider path in the southwest is the place where your beautiful senior sister invited you to complete the Crystal Web Spider mission last time."
Li The inspector looked at Stephana as if she were a fool: "Do you know how dangerous it is there? Do you think a team of newcomers can successfully complete this mission?" "
Richard, I have taken over the mission, and it will start tomorrow." Let’s set off.
But you can rest assured that the team members are all carefully selected by me and not mediocre. In addition, I can also provide alchemy products and potions, but whether the mission can be completed in the end depends on your strong support."
Richard was silent! If this is the case, this task is not impossible.
Although there are certain risks, my strength is not what it used to be, and I just take this opportunity to earn a wave of energy points!
"Okay, you go and prepare first. For alchemy products, five bottles of Ice Bite, ten bottles of Fire Dance Star, and twenty packs of Silver Moon Dust. For potions..." "Stop!!!" Stephana suddenly frowned
. He stood up and yelled angrily: "Richard! Do you know how many magic stones are needed for what you just said?"
Richard spread his hands and said jokingly: "This is what you said, you can provide alchemy products and potions. Aren't I worried about your safety? Of course the more the better."
"Up to five bottles of Fire Dance Star and ten packets of Silver Moon Dust. That's all. If you want other items, you can buy them yourself! Tomorrow morning, in the mission area Gather!" After saying a few words, Stephana left angrily.
Richard was overjoyed. He was still a child after all, and he lost his temper so quickly!
However, there was one sentence that Richard wanted to ask just now, but after thinking about it, he still didn't ask.
Because if Stephana just wants to earn points, she can quickly collect 30 points by doing a few more simple and safe tasks. But there must be some unknown reason for Stephana insisting on completing this task. .
