Chapter 12: Bounty Quest x Prestige Stone

The Bounty Office, located on a back street on the left side of the road to the port, is a government agency that issues bounty missions, and is set up in each city.

The back streets were much colder than the main roads, and the bounty was occasionally filled with well-dressed people coming in and out of the place.

Standing in front of the majestic Gothic gray and white castle, Northon looked all the way up from the simple and majestic gate until he raised his neck and saw the spire that pierced the sky at the top, and sighed sincerely: "The bounty of the big city is really extraordinary!" ”

The old man was unusual, pushing him in to take the task.

Just as they were about to step into the gate, the two were stopped by the guards in front of the door, holding their spears, and without looking at them, they reprimanded: "Miners do what miners should do, don't come here to make trouble." ”

"I'm a gunsmith, I'm here for a mission." Northen replied.

"Less nonsense, which mine came out?" The guard raised his spear and pointed it at the two, "I won't ...... if I make trouble again."

The cold weapon showed that he was not a gunsmith, and Northen raised the corners of his mouth and half-pulled out a pink, perfect pistol from his pocket. Let the guard blurt out the three words "polite" back, put away the arrogance of Fang Cai, stretched out his right hand with his waist, and said respectfully: "You...... You please! ”

The two stepped forward, and the old man said, "See, the gunsmith has no waste!" ”

Nuo Sen only smiled slightly, and the old man leaned over and whispered to him: "Pour the fire in, there is a small bracket in the chamber of the gun, break it, and the light effect can be turned off." ”

Remembering that he had also warned him in the woods that he was now in Jochashire, and at the bounty where the gunsmiths gathered, the perfect weapon would indeed cause unnecessary trouble, he put his hand in his pocket and did as he was told.

Turning off the light, he took out his pistol and looked at it again, the gray appearance, broken as its name suggests, a "toy", and there was no sense of "perfection".

On the first floor of the castle is a large hall, and Norsen seems to have entered the church.

The towering floor-to-ceiling windows on the left and right are painted with imaginary portraits of endless gods. The top of the castle is connected to the top floor, and the dome is made of transparent crystal or glass with some golden yellow. The sun shines down, and the soft light of dusk spreads over the hall, making the gray and soft carpet under your feet glow with a thin layer of floating light.

Nossen walked cautiously, for fear of breaking the floating light, and after a few steps, he heard a woman shouting behind the counter at the end of the hall: "Who let two beggars in!" ”

Before Offon could speak, the tall fat woman pinched her nose and complained, "The guards blow them away, don't let the sluts enter the bounty in the future!" ”

Although Jocha County is a big city, it is located in the northwest corner of the Endless Continent, and most of the copper mines and mullet industries are in the hands of several chaebols led by the city lord, and few high-level gunsmiths come here.

The guards outside the door, for the first time in their lives, saw the perfect weapon, and they were already trembling by the pink light, how dare they come in again to find fault.

"Don't shout!" Northon took out the pistol that turned off the light effect, identified himself, and said impatiently, "I'll take the task and leave, I won't disgust you for too long." ”

Seeing the tattered pistol, the woman frowned, and reluctantly grabbed a stack of brown task lists and threw them on the counter: "Pick it yourself." ”

Nuo Sen and the old man leaned up and looked through them one by one, nagging: "Samsung is too difficult, you can't finish it." 2 stars, 4 stars......"

After flipping through a few cards, Nuosen saw a task about himself, with a one-star difficulty and a bounty of 200 silver coins, which was even more generous than the three-star reward.

"It's worth a lot of money!" "It's famous!" "Take it!" The old man kept making vague jokes.

Northen didn't expect to be chased and killed in Jochashire, he picked up the list and rushed to the counter and asked, "Excuse me, who is posting this task?" ”

The tall fat woman who was drinking water squirted out with a "poof", and said in a disdainful tone in her politeness: "I'm really sorry, the bounty office will not disclose the client's information, this is the rule." ”

Noxon continued to look through the thick stack in disappointment, but he couldn't find a suitable task.

"You guys, do you have a one-star mission?" He asked.

"Isn't there one?"

"That guy has been hiding for more than three months, and he hasn't been caught yet, I don't want to wade into troubled waters, is there a short-term one?"

"The level is not high, and there are a lot of!" The tall fat woman muttered and rummaged, pulled out a task list that was pressed at the bottom, and threw it to North.

Northon took it and looked closely at the mottled handwriting:

【Mission】Hunt down a Dire Wolf Core in the Azern Mountains

【Difficulty】1 star

【Bounty】2,000 copper coins

Time limit: 15 days

"That's it!" Northen waved.

The tall fat woman spread her hands: "Bring it!" ”

Knowing that she was asking for the Prestige Stone, the token she had pledged to the bounty when she took the mission. After the task is completed and handed over, the bounty will record relevant information in the reputation stone, such as the difficulty number of stars, the completion time, etc., and will give a certain reputation value while paying the bounty.

"You don't even have a prestige stone, do you?" The woman rolled her eyes.

Northen looked at the old man helplessly, and with his knowledge of the "senior consultant", he must have taken on a lot of tasks.

The old man groped for a long time before he turned out a pale green translucent hexagonal edge conestone.

The tall fat woman snatched it away and inserted it into the gray machine that stood next to the counter. After some operation on the screen, she turned to Northon and the old man, with a fake smile on her face, and said, "Okay, remind me again, the time limit for the task is only fifteen days!" ”

Norson rolled up the task list and walked out of the bounty without looking back with the old man.

In the North City, the two of them happened to meet a group of miners who were about to go to the Azeon Mountains, so they accompanied them and headed northwest.

As the day sank, it was time for the bounty to close.

The tall fat woman began to tidy up the day's work, facing the machine, taking out the prestige stones mortgaged by the task performer one by one, sorting them and storing them.

"Is there anything unusual?" In front of the counter, a middle-aged and elderly man appeared with a slight bow.

The woman instinctively shook her head, as if thinking of something again, and said, "Director, there are two gunsmiths dressed as beggars to take over the task today." ”

"It's not unusual for gunsmiths to have their own strengths." The man was about to leave, when he suddenly turned around and asked, "What task did you take?" ”

"They've been looking for a one-star mission, I ...... I was given an impossible task. ”

"Dire wolf core?"

The woman nodded, and said, "They turned to the task of 'Northen Stanley', one of them instigated to take it next, and the other asked for information about the client, and I didn't tell him all the requirements for our bounty." ”

The woman told the director the events of the day, and even Northson's inconspicuous pistol was not left behind.

After listening quietly, the director instructed, "Check what tasks he has undertaken." ”

The woman found the prestige stone, reinserted it back into the machine, and pressed a few buttons, and the history was displayed on the projection screen.

Four-star, five-star, four-star......

Six-star !!

The woman and the director looked at the scalp numb, straight to the cold sweat, the woman even more legs were weak, covering her heart, remorseful for the recklessness of the day.

"Only a high-level gunsmith can take on a six-star mission, which is higher than the level of the city lord! At such a young age, the level of a gunsmith has reached such a level?! ”

"No, it's the old man's prestige stone."

"Old man?"

The director immediately pulled out the prestige stone, walked straight out of the hall, and threw down a sentence before leaving: "Within the fifteen-day period, if he comes to hand in the task, he will be held back no matter what!" ”
