Chapter 248: Escort Mission

Leaving the Magal Hotel, the two first went to the potion shop to replenish some red and blue bottles, the shopkeeper obviously recognized An Yizhi who bought a lot of medium blue last time, and was a little surprised that he ran out so quickly, but the business came to the door and couldn't help it, and he was quite enthusiastic to let him get a membership card......

――The marketing methods of the other world are similar to reality!

After wandering around the adventurer's activity area for a while, An Yizhi saw that there were shops selling magic skills, although they were all F~E, and they were all plastic spells, but they could be taken out and sold. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

However, this money in his hand was obviously not enough, and he also tried, and the Septine gold coins taken out of Skyrim could not be used here, and the shopkeeper himself showed the 'numismatic carding' and told them that only such money was money, and that what Ann had brought out was only scrap metal.

Then the two of them went to the gear store again, but this time there was nothing good. Not to mention An Yizhi, who holds an epic staff, even the brave invincible has had an adventure after the last separation, at least the sword hanging from his waist is not a legendary sword.

However, it's not that their vision is too high, how can they say that they can't use it and sell it, but there is only a bunch of whiteboard equipment in the equipment store, and the best thing that the boss takes out is just a two-handed war hammer for the whiteboard, and it is said that the legendary sword that was once bought by An Yi pointed out that they are still the treasure of the town store.

Speaking of the elite and equipment as the treasure of the town store, is the grade of this store too bad?

The owner of the equipment shop told the two that if they wanted to find better weapons and equipment, they would go to the front line of the battlefield to have a look, or they would just wait a few days, and the batch he ordered was late because of the flood of undead creatures.

Players definitely can't wait a few more days, in fact, this is also a hint from the system to players.

There are no good things in this city anymore, so I packed up my things for Lao Tzu and went to other cities!

But there is one point, it is certainly not a coincidence that the system once again placed their appearance location in the Magal Hotel, in addition to the meaning of obtaining information from the inn, An Yizhi estimates that there should also be a main quest in the city.

The last time they came to this dungeon, An Yizhi had found evidence of bribery by a series of officials such as the city lord in the book of secret arts, and it was conceivable that this time there should be such tasks as 'bringing down the city lord', but An Yizhi thought about it for a long time and didn't think of how to trigger it, who let him tear up the list at that time......

Thinking that there was nothing worth collecting in this city, at least not on the surface, the two came to the east gate to find the convoy that was recruiting guards.

As soon as you leave the city, you can see about 200 refugees in rags, living in shacks made of waste wood and other things, surrounded by more than a dozen soldiers patrolling to maintain order, and not far away you can see soldiers boiling porridge, but the porridge can almost be used as clear soup.

Fortunately, the brave invincible didn't notice it, otherwise with this anxious and righteous character, he would have to talk to the soldier who boiled porridge, and in the end eighty percent would have 'reached an agreement'.

"It's the two of you who want to sign up?"

Found the carriage that was said to be the principal, and out of the carriage came a thin middle-aged man with a gloomy face.

He first looked at the invincible armor of the brave, and then looked at Ann's uniquely shaped staff, and felt that these two people were more reliable than ordinary adventurers, at least this outfit was not comparable to those adventurers who could only deal with goblins.

"5 gold coins per person, lunch included, if you want to do it, go to the back to sign"

A bag of tinkling coins was thrown over casually, and it almost hit An Yizhi's head.

After saying that, I didn't feel rude at all, and I turned around and went back to the carriage without knowing what to do.

"Brother An, let's not be like him, there are more people like this"

The brave invincible hurriedly grabbed An Yizhi, who was about to recite the mantra, as a working soldier, the brave invincible has seen a lot of people, from childhood to adulthood, I have not met the kind of person who thinks' working for him is equivalent to receiving charity from him', but An Yizhi, don't look at his age is several years older than the brave invincible, in fact, he has never worked at all.

The brave invincible persuaded him, and An Yizhi put down the hand holding the magic seal, no one knew that the spell that this thing was going to release was a second-class otherworldly covenant......

In the back, they found a butler-like person who signed the contract, and the system also sent a reminder to officially accept the side quest on their behalf.

[Side quest activation: Protect refugee laborers to the magical city of Endymion as much as possible]

It seems that this task is not as easy as thought.

Since the system says to protect as much as possible, it means that there will be situations where refugees will die on the road, and generally speaking, they will encounter monster groups and the like.

But compared to this, An Yizhi cares more about the magic city of Endymion, since it is called a magic city, it shouldn't be a problem to find a few useful magic skills, right?

Thinking about these questions, Ann pointed to see three people dressed as adventurers walking towards them, the leader looked like a warrior, he was about 30 years old, and said with a kind smile:

"Are you also an adventurer who took on the escort mission?"

This should be the NPC companions arranged by the system, but then again, their outfits and weapons and equipment don't look very reliable, and they don't see the magic aura at all, and with the combat power of the three of them, it's hard to say whether they are helpers or burdens.

The warrior who didn't know that he had been treated as a weak chicken by An Yizhi saw An Yizhi nodding and said:

"Then we are companions on this mission, let me introduce you, my name is Brummer"

He pointed to his companion, who was carrying a longbow beside him, and said:

"It's Add"

"Hello"

Add is an elven ranger who not only carries a longbow on his back, but also has two knives at his waist, and belongs to the team of characters who can be near and far.

"This is our little darling, his name is Grote, and he's a mage."

"Don't call me a baby, I'm a man!"

Grote is small and short, wearing a linen robe, and he really looks like a woman, so this can't be the second John, right?

"Ann Yizhi, Mage"

"The brave are invincible"

After the two reported their names, Blumer was a little surprised and said:

"You're the adventurer who rescued the slaves not long ago?"

Although it is not clear what the time ratio of this dungeon world is to the main world, judging from the reactions of the NPCs, it is not too far from the time of the last Palundexiu dungeon, after all, many people, including the innkeeper, know them.

"It's amazing, I have more confidence in this mission"

"But I remember if you weren't a trio? Why are there only two left? ”

"Add!"

Grote elbowed Eddie, who was talking but had no brain, and the latter immediately realized that he had said the wrong thing.

The adventurer's bowl of rice was not so tasty, and it was not uncommon for the famous adventurer to die in a seemingly undangerous mission, and it seemed that they had misunderstood that they had already died in battle.

"It's okay, he's just going back to his hometown to get married"

Casually arranging the grass on the plain, An pointed and asked:

"You just said that this mission is very dangerous?"

"You don't know?"

Brummer's surprised expression didn't seem to be fake, and Ann had to perfunctory say that we had gone out before, and Brummer explained with relief:

"Since the independent kingdom of Palundexiu was occupied by the undead, small groups of skeleton zombies often appear in this area, and some people who escaped from Palundexiu and have no livelihood have become robbers in this vicinity, which is very difficult to deal with."

"It's just a bunch of homeless people, it shouldn't be too difficult to deal with, right?"

"No, they are not outcasts"

Bloomer nodded in the direction of the refugees who were watching nearby:

"They are the outcasts, those robbers are the soldiers of the original Palundexiu, well-equipped and well-trained, I heard that the warrior captain of the independent kingdom of Palundexiu is their commander, and he is very good at fighting"

The army and ordinary bandits are completely different in terms of combat effectiveness, and it is no wonder that Brummer is a little worried.

"But don't worry too much, we're just escorting these refugees to Endymion as laborers, not escorting any important supplies, and the robbers shouldn't be interested in these refugees who don't have two taels of oil in their bones."

Seeing that Ann pointed thoughtfully, Blumer thought that what he said was too serious, and immediately explained.

In fact, An Yizhi was thinking about another thing, when he first went to Palundexiu, he was a little wonderful, why he didn't see a few zombies dressed as soldiers on the road, it turned out that those soldiers saw that they were unable to resist the undead frenzy in the city, so they simply ran away with supplies and equipment.

Since their commander is the warrior leader of the original Palundexiu, it is natural that they should know the ring of the 'High Position Spell Ring', after all, it was taken off the king's finger from his finger before he died.

Perhaps, this ring can be used to talk to the general......

An Yi pointed to the things that were not very harmonious in his mind, and it was best not to tell the brave invincible about this kind of plan, otherwise this thing would definitely not agree.

That's right, he wants to use the Book of the Dead's ability to control the undead to attack the city with the general who escaped from Palundesius!

If there is such a big movement, the system will at least reward a perfect-level equipment or skill, but this matter still needs to be carefully considered for details and the like, especially whether the general cooperates, otherwise it doesn't feel like it can be done just by An Yiyi's own fingers.

"I said I'll go now! Are you in charge or am I here? ”

A sudden quarrel interrupted An Yizhi's thoughts, and several people looked for a middle-aged man in the carriage who was yelling at a soldier dressed as a captain:

"5 adventurers is enough!"

"But with only five people and a few of us soldiers, it is difficult to ensure the safety of all the refugees......"

"I don't care if those who are inferior live or die! These adventurers are enough to protect me."

"However, the funds issued by the state should be ......"

"I don't know what the funds are, I just know that if you delay the time, you will not be able to eat and walk around!"

The middle-aged man interrupted the soldier, and it seemed that this was a bit boring.

Seeing that the middle-aged man could not move, the soldier had to silently retreat and ask his brothers to inform the refugees to go on the road.

Looking at all this, Ann pointed and suddenly said to Bloomer:

"Brummer, do these refugees get paid to work in Endymion?"

Blumer smiled bitterly:

"There is no salary, the money sent from above has been embezzled layer by layer, and the rest has been taken away by the slave owner, at most you can have a full meal"

"Slave owners?"

"It's the middle-aged man who talked to the soldier just now, his name is Bakir, he is a small merchant who is not very developed, but the other party has a little relationship, he took over the trade from the official in charge of this matter, and the wages of the laborers were divided by them, so many ordinary people called them slave owners"

The corruption of officials within the Holy Kingdom can be seen......
