Chapter 74 The Mission Named ‘Cerberus’
In the morning, Bing Zhixie had an illusion class, a cooking class, a space magic class, and a practical class. This is the elective course he has taken during this period. Since ancient times, there has been a saying called broadness and profoundness. Bing Zhixie has always believed that erudition can be broader and proficiency can be more profound. All great people must be knowledgeable people. So although he majored in ice magic, he also studied other things, even fun things like painting and fishing. He knows that no matter what, no matter what subject, if you want to go further, you must have a different way of thinking.
However, he had no intention of studying during these two days of classes. And the strange thing is that there are very few people in class today.
After class, he was about to go back to the dormitory and go to eat, but Luo and Wayne grabbed him and told him not to eat first, but to go to the mercenary union first.
It turns out that the place where they are going to take the practical exam in a few days has been announced. The two of them have been checking information in the library all morning, and they have figured out where they are going to take the practical exam. You are making a fuss and go to the Mercenary Guild to pick up the corresponding tasks, don't let others get there first.
Of course, there is also a branch of the Mercenary Union in the academy, and MY0037 is the code name of this branch. The Mercenary Guild Club is not far from the World Bank, the Magic Guild Club, and the academy’s trading center. They are in the same area. This place is also one of the places where students often come. Most of them will take some simple repair tasks and production tasks. Do it, firstly to hone yourself, and secondly to make some money. And those who work in these clubs are almost all teachers from the college.
When Bing Zhixie, Carol, Luo, Wayne, and the arranged Cornelia and Irina arrived, there were already people everywhere, and the mercenary union was completely surrounded. These people are all rushing to take over tasks, or purchase better equipment, weapons, and some needed items. In short, there are people everywhere.
Knelia was a little timid when she saw such a terrifying sea of people: "Luo, let's come later, there are too many people now."
"No, it's late enough. "Luo and Wayne shouted at the same time: "If you don't say a better mission later, I'm afraid the mission will be gone."
Irina said anxiously: "But how can we enter the mercenary guild? The door is almost bursting with pressure.”
Carol said: "Let's go to the mercenary union outside the college."
Luo Yi patted his head: "Look at me, I'm stupid, let's go quickly."
A group of people hurriedly walked to the teleportation array. Outside the academy, even the few mercenary unions were crowded with people. Fortunately, the imperial capital of Debiles was large enough, and there were many mercenary union clubs. Finally, I found a clubhouse with not too many people in a city far away from the college.
Clubs are all very large, but this mercenary union club does not have many people handing in and accepting tasks, only a few dozen people. But there are indeed many people working and they are very busy.
The tasks of the mercenary union are divided into regional, national and world types, and the regional types are divided into inter-provincial, inter-city and tasks ordered by the guild. These tasks are recorded by magic in The interconnected slates made of Tongyi stones are refreshed all the time, so there are usually more than five Tongyi slates in mercenary clubs to record various types of tasks.
Just because the nature of the tasks is different, the prices charged when posting tasks are also different. For example, for a single mission in the world, it must be connected with the information of the memory stones in all mercenary clubs in the world. This requires powerful magic power to release and receive this information, and requires the use of very high-end magic crystals. Stones are generally above level three crystals. Of course, such a piece can be used for a long, long time.
The Tongyin Stone will emit a special magic power of space magic with the support of the space magic array, which will be recorded and reflected on the Tongyin Stone supported by the same kind of space magic array, but will not be recorded in Other Tongyi stones. This kind of space magic array is also different. You can add the secret words of the array into the array, which is like making some marks. Only the space magic arrays with the same marks will communicate with each other, so that you will not mix the world type, national type, and regional type. Mixed up, recorded on the same slate.
Due to this special property, many emergency military orders during marches and battles can be conveyed through this method. However, hundreds of years ago, there was no such convenient space magic technology, and the tasks of the mercenary union could only be conveyed on ordinary paper. Military orders during war often cannot be delivered on time. The person who started this epoch-making space magic was the first space mage in history, Kmiel Sen Darrenpe. Because of this, his name is greater than some great mage.
Everyone looked at the information flashing on the stone slabs on both sides of the wall from time to time. These memory tablets have a large amount of memory. Information on tens of thousands of tasks can be easily recorded. They are recorded every minute. It will scroll and the recorded task list will be displayed in sequence. Only the two slates of world type and country type flickered relatively little, and it didn't take long for me to turn to repeated tasks.
"Level A, Level C, Level B, Level E..." Luo and Irina worked hard to find tasks suitable for the place they were going on the two intercity stone slabs, while Wayne and Cornelia just After looking at the tasks of our club, Carol looked at the inter-provincial tasks and went directly to ask the union staff if there were any tasks suitable for them.
The level of tasks is not determined by the regional nature. Regional types will also have high-level tasks, while national types may also have relatively low-level tasks. However, generally no one would do this, because the larger the scope of the posted task, the higher the fee. No one would be stupid enough to spend tens of thousands of dollars to publish a B-level task. Therefore, the more advanced tasks there are, the more there are on the national or world-type slate.
There will also be a special slate in the mercenary unions in big cities, which lists all the tasks above S level and writes them down on a separate memory board. Bing Zhixie looked around and saw that there were only 46 missions above S level, three of which were SSS level missions. This was a special mission for the national war, with no limit on the number of people or the number of times. Although there are 43 items for the remaining S-level and SS-level items, no one among the mercenaries in the union has read them. "Heh, kid, you can't take on these tasks." A middle-aged man carrying a big sword walked to Bing Zhixie and said: "These tasks have been strictly evaluated, and it is considered that there are no mercenaries and mercenaries above S level. People with the strength of the corps cannot take it, they will die if they take it!"
The middle-aged man said it was scary, but it was the truth. Although the so-called S-level does not refer to personal strength, people without strength will not be able to earn enough work points to do high-level tasks just by doing low-level tasks in their lifetime. In other words, they must continue to do tasks more suitable for their mercenary level to obtain Higher work points.
The mercenary level increases almost geometrically as it goes up. Mercenaries who can reach B level and A level must have experienced countless dangers and done countless difficult tasks before they achieved this level. Now the corresponding mercenary level. These people are all experienced, experienced, strong and experienced people, and they cannot be weak.
It may be easier to advance from an entry-level F-level mercenary to a D-level mercenary. For example, Irina started doing mercenary tasks at the age of eight or nine. It took her 5 years to save 8,000 work points and upgrade to a D-level mercenary. To upgrade from D-level to C-level, 94,000 work points are required. If you only rely on doing easier E-level tasks, there are only dozens or hundreds of work points. It is extremely difficult to upgrade to C-level. There are generally hundreds or even thousands of D-level tasks. Only in this way can you be promoted better, but these tasks are difficult. For difficult tasks, you can only rely on your own strength. Therefore, it is impossible for people without strength to reach S level.
The voice of the middle-aged man with the big ax made Cornelia and Luo, who were focused in front of the stone slab, come over: "Hey, Bing Zhixie, don't waste your time looking at those flowers in the mirror, the moon in the water Let’s hurry up and find some tasks that are suitable for us.”
Irina also looked at the top task slate and exclaimed: “Ah! Look at this task, it’s 130. It was released years ago. Has it not been revoked yet? "
Luo Ye asked strangely: "Yes, it has been 130 years. Isn't the person who issued the mission still dead? "
Middle-aged? The man explained: "You students don't know anything yet. It's rare for difficult tasks like this to drag on for tens or even hundreds of years. If the previous generation dies, there will still be the next generation."
< br>
"Uh..., the next generation!" Everyone was amazed.
"SS level." Wayne read the message behind this mission: "Look for a fifty-headed Cerberus ① and bring it back alive."
"Five...five-five-five-fifty-headed Cerberus!" Luo was startled.
Even Cornelia, who was so reserved, exclaimed: "Will there be fifty-headed Cerberus?"
The middle-aged man smiled and said: "Who? You know, if the person who issued the task is willing to pay so much money to issue this task, of course there will be no money left in the union.”
Seeing their shocked looks, Wayne looked confused: "What is Cerberus? It sounds like some kind of monster?"
Irina said patiently: "What an uneducated person? A hopeless guy."
"Cerberus is the legendary three-headed dog guarding the gate of hell!" said the middle-aged man.
