Chapter 192 The Disappearing Merchant Ship
In the evening, Gordon, who returned to his residence, felt a little surprised after listening to Ancier’s talk about his family’s chamber of commerce and his speculation about Lanlong, but he was not unhappy. Too worried.
According to the professor, Lanlong has lived in Lingfeng since ancient times. It is still some distance away from Jieyun Village. As long as they do not forcefully cross the sea from the north, there should be no problem.
"You plan to personally escort, right, so when will we set off?"
"Time is tight, we are going to set off at noon tomorrow." Anhil's eyes were on the weapons racks. Moving between the heavy crossbows, he was thinking about which one to bring.
Gordon's face looked slightly bitter when he heard this. It seemed that he didn't have time to learn how to save money, so he was not in a hurry.
Taking a deep breath to cover up his disappointment, Gordon nodded and said: "Okay, I'll hurry up and get ready."
"No, no, no."
An Xi You looked away from the weapon rack, turned to Gordon, waved his hands and said: "This time, just escort me and Feng Ying. You can stay in Dongdoruma safely and practice with the master."
“Huh?” Gordon didn’t react.
Anxier sat down on the sofa, crossed his arms and said, "After modifying the route at Feng Ying's suggestion, the difficulty of this escort mission has been greatly reduced. The only headache is the extremely long mission time.
Even if you don’t consider the return trip, it is conservatively estimated to take three to four months. It is a complete waste of time for you.” ?" Gordon, who felt isolated, asked with some dissatisfaction.
Anhil shrugged, "After all, it is the business of my own family's chamber of commerce. My sister has taken care of me so much since I was a child. I always want to repay the favor when I can contribute. This escort is very important. Let me give it to you. I don’t trust anyone else either.”
Gordon looked at Feng Ying aside.
Feng Ying muttered, "I also think it's a bit of a waste of time."
Anxil looked at her sideways, "Of course you don't have to go? But who just heard that you can drop by to visit relatives in your hometown? , and there is a high reward to get one You agreed?
You still have time to regret it. I’ll just tell the caravan. "
"I still want to go, they gave me too much! "Feng Ying rubbed the corner of her clothes tangledly.
Gordon glanced helplessly at this useless guy, "How much did they pay you?"
Feng Ying counted with her fingers: "100000z per person. Anxier said he didn't want to be paid, but Sister Jessica said she would pay me double, which is 200000z.
According to a two-star mission, 3000 to 4000z Calculated based on the basic remuneration, it is almost equivalent to sixty two-star missions."
Gordon leaned back tactically, pointed at Feng Ying and looked at Ancil, the meaning in his eyes was obvious.
Is this little guy worth the price? ?
Anhil spread his hands and said: "It's not a matter of strength. Fengying is a native of the Western Continent. Her familiarity with the customs, ecology, geography and natural environment is definitely not comparable to that of ordinary hunters.
Didn't I say before that she helped plan the caravan route this time? My sister is very optimistic about her, so she is willing to pay a high salary to hire her. ”
“No wonder. "Gordon understood.
It seems that Feng Ying's role on a larger level is that of a guide.
"The main reason is that my wallet has been empty recently."
Feng Ying hugged He held his little head and said in distress: "The Blue Velociraptor suit and the mixed lead shield ax used up all my savings before.
I just completed a bunch of one-star missions and just replenished some. The reinforced alloy shield ax has been used up again. I borrowed more than 20,000 z to build the lobster suit from you.
I also spent a lot of money on doctors and nutritionists recently, and I hate owing money."
To put it bluntly, this is also due to the girl's self-esteem.
In the process of teaming up with Gordon Anhill, she was completely taken care of. With her current strength, it is difficult for her to be of substantial help to Gordon and the others
Favors and money. The more she owed, the more she became anxious.
Now there is an opportunity that can be put to use, and she can get a large sum of money at once. She will not have to worry about money for a long time in the future, and she can also visit her hometown. Of course she is excited.
"Okay, okay." Gordon crossed his arms helplessly.
He also understood what Ancil meant by "wasting time".
The escort reward of 100,000z is a sky-high price for Feng Ying, but not necessarily for their four-star hunters.
The standard reward for four-star missions is about 10,000z, which is about ten times. If you hunt normally, you can harvest these in three to four months.
Hunting missions can hone skills, accumulate experience, obtain a variety of materials, and increase the number of completed missions in the hunter's notebook, achieving multiple goals with one stone.
As for escorting the caravan, there is only monetary reward, and most of the time is wasted.
Comparing the two, it is obvious which one is more suitable for him.
“Don’t worry so much. If the caravan really needs it, I will drag you there if you don’t want to go, but there is no need for it right now.
You’d better practice well. You really have a lot of secrets, it’s hard to find a mentor like Master Xiang, so take advantage of the opportunity." Anhil patted Gordon on the arm and said with a smile.
Gordon exhaled.
“If there is a problem on the road and you need help, send me a letter at any time by sending a carrier pigeon, and I will rush there as soon as possible.”
“Can you keep your mouth shut when you are riding a horse!”
At noon the next day, Anhil and Feng Ying followed the caravan and set off by boat from Dongdoruma Port.
Gordon specially asked the master to take two hours off to see them off.
With the advance greeting from the Chamber of Commerce, the workshop worked overnight to build Feng Ying's lobster suit and alloy shield ax in advance.
At this time, the little girl was wearing a silver-white suit with a touch of purple full-body armor. She jumped on the edge of the deck of the huge merchant ship and waved goodbye to Gordon.
The amber next to her also kept moaning, which complemented the "meow, meow, meow" of the pork chop.
Anhil looked much more reserved in public. He leaned against the deck railing and nodded slightly to Gordon on the shore. He was still wearing a helmet on his head, and he didn't know what he was trying to do.
The Stirling Chamber of Commerce ship went farther and farther, and the figures and voices of its companions gradually became blurred and out of reach, and finally disappeared completely on the sea level.
Jessica, who was also seeing off the caravan at the dock, took the initiative to come over and say hello to Gordon, "Mr. Gordon, long-awaited greetings."
"Ms. Jessica, you're welcome. "The corners of Gordon's eyes twitched slightly, and he responded with the most appropriate words possible.
“You don’t have to be so formal.” Jessica smiled and said, “My brother asked me to give this to you.”
Gordon took the gift from Jessica in surprise. After saying "sorry", he unfolded the note.
[You have already accumulated enough four-star missions. Once you have completed the training of True Charged Slash, when the time is right, go find a mission to advance to five-star. Don’t be outdone by that Julius guy. !
The key to my storage room on the second floor is placed in a vase on the dining table. You can get the materials you need at any time, and you can also get the monster materials secretly. ]
Gordon: "."
What kind of outlaw? This note must be destroyed soon, otherwise the guild will have to chase it to the Western Continent in the dark night.
Continue reading.
[I will continue to teach Feng Ying some things. Don’t worry. I brought a lot of books this time. At worst, I will let her carry the ecology book. I will take the small oil bottle away for you. During this time, you Just work hard.
By the way, if you need any help outside of hunting, you can go to Jessica. I have already said hello to her.
Yours sincerely, Ancier. ]
After finishing reading, Gordon smashed the note into pieces and threw it into the sea.
“This guy.”
ps.
I always felt like I was watching the merchant ship drifting away, and suddenly a big sea dragon jumped out and gnawed the ship. The protagonist turned dark and embarked on the road of revenge.
And
Return Some friends around me read this chapter and asked me, "You don't know how to be gay, do you?" --!
Definitely not that, that, that, that.
Don't worry, there won't be any mess in this book. Hair knife and poison point!
