Chapter 630: Unfreeze Mission
“Sir, there is nothing in Town Gudam that I don’t know. Sir can ask anything.”
“If sir needs to take a break here, I can introduce sir the best hotel as well as the most beautiful and caring maid.”
“The equipnt on sir seems to be badly damaged. I know that there is a blacksmith shop opened by a hobbit whose craftsmanship is the best in town...” Along the way, Lucio spared no effort to show his value in front of Chen Rui. Chen Rui did not say anything as he knew Lucio’s intention. In fact, he had no intention to kill the little pawn, Lucio. He just wanted to get an identity certificate and go to Dragon Bright Empire. Speaking of which, he also learned a lot of useful news from the endless words of this guy.
“Your great-grandfather was in the military of the Dragon Bright Empire?” Chen Rui finally asked.
Lucio tried to get close to this ‘Master powerhouse’ by listing his genealogy in the hope of saving his life. When he heard this question, he hastily replied, “Yes, my great-grandfather was once the leader of the Red Dragon Legion spearn team, but unfortunately, our family suffered a reversal of fortune. During my father’s ti, we migrated to the Yang Shao Empire. Later, my father died of illness and I...”
Speaking of ancestral glory, Lucio lowered his head in sha in comparison to his current situation, “My dream since I was a child is to be a spearman and inherit the glory of my grandfather. Unfortunately, my luck is quite bad...”
Bad luck? Is it because spearn is a miserable profession? Chen Rui rembered a sentence, “Since ancient tis, spearn have been miserable, their luck is the lowest”. A typical example is a miserable guy holding the ‘Crimson Rose of Exorcism’.
Of course, Chen Rui knew that Lucio’s sha contained a lot of crocodile tears. He shook his head indifferently and did not speak any more.
The miserable spearman was very familiar with the terrain here. After about 1.5 hour, the 2 walked out of the forest and ca to Town Gudam.
Chen Rui was silent along the way. He seed more mysterious in Lucio’s mind. He didn’t dare to ask more, and he just asked kindly, “Sir, chanic badge, potioneer badge, academy badge and rcenary badge are common identity certificates for all empires, but there is only rcenary union in Town Gudam. If sir doesn’t mind, you can first register a rcenary identity for temporary use.”
There were chanic badges and potioneer badges in Chen Rui’s storage warehouse, but they were the Demon Realm’s badge. There were also the 3 empires’ inscribed pattern logos which were definitely impossible to use in the human world. Chen Rui pondered for a mont and spoke up, “Then let’s go to the rcenary union. I’m a low-key person. You know what to do now?”
This sentence implied a threat. Lucio shook his head quickly, “Understood! Please rest assured sir!”
The 2 ca to a larger building. There was a sword-shaped logo on it.
After entering the door was a hall. There were many people in the hall who looked like rcenaries. Soon after both of them walked into the hall, they heard a disdainful voice coming from the side, “Look who is that? Isn’t it the ‘lousy spear’, Lucio? Even his spear is broken. He’s a veritable trash this ti.”
The man who spoke was a bearded man carrying a broad sword behind him. His strength was D- which was a realm higher than Lucio.
The mocking voices beside him also sounded, “This guy usually only bullies so rookies. He has no ability. That day I saw him being chased by a fla pig and half of his pants were burned. Haha!“
“Lucio is not simply a trash, he is also an unlucky fellow. Last ti, he was so ignorant that he blackmailed the guard leader’s cousin who just ca here, then he was beaten severely and imprisoned for 3 months...” Lucio didn’t dare to say anything. He walked forward with his head down.
A petite female rcenary with a well-developed body spoke up, “Hey, the kid following behind! Lucio is not a good thing, don’t be fooled by him!”
This was considered kind advice. Chen Rui glanced at the female rcenary, and he still followed Lucio.
“He doesn’t even accept Sister Ina’s kindness. This rookie deserves to be fooled!”
“I bet this rookie has been tricked by at least 30 white crystal coins.”
“It should be 50 white coins, shall we bet?”
Chen Rui’s voice faintly sounded in Lucio’s ear, “It seems that you are quite famous.”
Lucio’s face blushed, and his head dropped lower. They arrived at the ‘reception desk’. Right in front was a pretty girl, and several girls were busy behind her. The huge bulletin board on the side listed rcenary missions of various levels in detail including content, ti limit, and reward. The most striking thing was the popular mission marked on the big black sign. There was no rcenary union in the Demon Realm, so Chen Rui looked at it curiously.
“Sandy, my friend wants to beco a rcenary, please help to register him.”
Sandy glanced at Lucio and gave Chen Rui a form. Chen Rui’s current face was the Earth otaku that he used in the Dead Sea which was not eye-catching. He filled in the na “Richard” in the form, and the rest of the information was naturally made up based on what Lucio said.
Sandy took the form, took a quick glance, and nodded, “Richard, I don’t know if Lucio has clearly stated to you that to beco a union certified rcenary, you must first complete the simplest qualification mission and beco a reserve rcenary. Then, you need to complete 3 white crystal-level missions within 1 month to beco an official rcenary with a white crystal badge.”
Lucio hurriedly spoke up, “Uh... This is the case, Sandy, please register Richard to join my Burning Spear Squad. That way, as long as he can complete the reserve rcenary mission, he can directly beco an official rcenary.”
This was indeed the rule of the trade union. As long as one formally joined the registered rcenary team after becoming a reserve rcenary, the reserve rcenary could directly ‘beco official’ and get the badge. This was not a loophole. rcenary was a life-risking career. An accident would cause death and injury or even team wipe. A formal rcenary team would definitely not recruit mbers without strength.
“The reserve mission should be the hunting wind rabbit. Here is a wind rabbit’s corpse, please check it.” Lucio took out the wind rabbit hunted on the way and put it on the table.
“Yes, it is indeed a fresh wind rabbit corpse. Richard can already obtain the reserve rcenary qualification, but...” Sandy took out a form and looked at it carefully, “Lucio, I’m afraid... you don’t have the qualification to recruit team mbers. Burning Spear Squad is now in a frozen state as you have not completed a purple crystal-level mission within a year. According to regulations, you must complete a purple crystal-level mission within 7 days starting today to unfreeze it. Otherwise, Burning Spear Squad will be disbanded forever.”
“What?” Lucio shook, “It’s been a year already? Why didn’t I receive notice in advance?”
“Hmph! A trash like you who can’t admit failure all day long only knows how to scam others and be drunk to dispel sorrows. How can you rember the ti? Naturally, there is no need to waste energy to notify you.” A strong voice sounded from behind. This middle-aged man with a red beard and a scar on his face.
“Sir President.” Sandy’s words indicated the identity of the red-bearded man, who was the head of the Town Gudam’s rcenary union branch. The strength of the Red Beard’s was Warrior peak stage (D ) on the surface, which was equivalent to the later stage of Higher Demon, but his actual strength had reached the Master which was equivalent to the early stage Great Demon King (B-). These did not escape from Chen Rui’s eyes.
Red Beard naturally couldn’t see through Chen Rui’s strength. He only regarded him as a poor rookie who was scamd by Lucio and didn’t bother about him at all. He cast a cold gaze on Lucio, “You’re more miserable than I thought. Have you resorted to scamming in the na of the rcenary squad? Such a squad has no aning at all. “
“No! Sir Rodan, I didn’t! Really!” Lucio yelled. He suddenly broke out in cold sweat when he recalled that there was a terrifying character beside him.
From the words of the Red Beard, Chen Rui heard that the miserable spearman seed to be a guy with a bit of a story. Now that the rcenary team is frozen, the plan to get the rcenary badge quickly has failed, but the miserable man shouldn’t be doing this on purpose as it concerns his life.
“So after completing a purple crystal-level mission, I will be able to get the rcenary badge?” Chen Rui suddenly interjected.
“Kid, it’s not easy to be a rcenary. Otherwise, even if you get the rcenary badge, you will only die faster in future missions if you are not a true rcenary.” Red-bearded Rodan glanced at Chen Rui and shook his head disapprovingly, “Don’t believe this liar’s so-called shortcut. Honestly complete the 3 white crystal-level missions, and accumulate your experience slowly, then maybe you can live longer. As for the purple crystal-level missions, it is surely not sothing you can touch at your current level.”
Chen Rui had already noticed the mission of white crystal level. It was really not difficult. There were assisting potioneer in collecting herbs, sending letters to neighboring towns, assisting the guards in night defense, collecting magic beast skin and fur and so on. But for him, who was not familiar with this place, it was too ti-consuming.
“Ms. Sandy, I would like to ask, what is the fastest mission to cancel Burning Spear Squad freezing? I only ask the mission with the shortest ti regardless of the level.” Chen Rui smiled at Sandy and asked.
For so reason, Sandy felt a strange charm in the ordinary smile, and she replied, “On the popular mission, there is a manticore egg mission posted by Pastor Mana. The level is black crystal level 7, and the reward is 300 black crystal coins.”
“Oh.” Chen Rui nodded and said to Lucio, “Let’s go.”
Lucio didn’t dare to talk more. He followed suit. The Red Beard frowned slightly when he noticed that the relationship between the 2 was a little weird.
Stepping out of the rcenary union, Lucio quickly explained, “Sir Richard, I’m sorry; I really don’t know that Burning Spear Squad has been frozen...”
“Where is the manticore in the Blue Wild Forest?”
“In the Mighty Poison Cave deep in the Blue Wild Forest...” Lucio replied, and he imdiately reacted, “Sir! You...”
“Stop talking nonsense. Now lead the way to the Mighty Poison Cave imdiately!”
“Huh? ?” Lucio trembled and stopped walking. “Mighty Poison Cave has 2 manticores. 1 is said to be close to Saint. They are the kings of the Blue Wild Forest. No one has ever dared to provoke them. A year ago, my team was collecting poisonous fruits nearby and accidentally alard a manticore. As a result, everyone except was...”
“You now have 2 options. First, die imdiately. Second, go to Mighty Poison Cave. Perhaps you can not only survive, but you can also avenge your lost companions.”
Lucio looked at Chen Rui’s calm eyes, and he finally gritted his teeth, “I’ll go!”
TL: Hmmm, it seems like this Lucio will be his future servant.
