Chapter 237 On the Chessboard④

Twelve hours later, outside the gate of the Wind Helmet, the white fox looked at the ten-meter-high city wall and asked, "Who is the lord of the Wind Helmet?"

Xueli was silent for a moment and then said: "It's Feng Qingyang... a man who came here 30 years ago and helped the brave man defeat the Demon King!"

The white fox looked at the long line at the city gate and thought for a moment before asking, "Feng Qingyang? (OS: Why does it sound like the name from my hometown?)"

As soon as Baihu finished speaking, Xueli pulled Baihu to the back of the team and said, "This is the only main city on the border...There are a lot of people going in and out every day...so we must hurry up!"

As soon as Xueli finished speaking, a man in a suit came to the white fox with a group of guards and said, "I never expected to see people from my hometown here... It's so rare!"

Subconsciously turning to look at the man, Baihu was just about to say something, Xueli leaned close to Baihu's ear and whispered: "He is Feng Qingyang... Feng Qingyang who helped the brave defeat the devil 30 years ago!"

The white fox was stunned for a moment, then looked at Feng Qingyang's attributes and said, "Are you serious? How can this level of strength help the brave defeat the devil?"

Looking at Feng Qingyang's attributes, the white fox thought for a moment and said, "Is the devil in this world very strong?"

Feng Qingyang was stunned for a moment and then said: "The Demon King and the Demon God basically won't attack in person... The attacker we encountered last time was not the Demon King himself... so we can easily repel them!"

After hearing Feng Qingyang's answer, the white fox looked at the Wind Helmet and asked, "What is the strongest monster in this world? A giant dragon?"

After thinking for a while, Feng Qingyang took out a book with a gray cover and handed it to the white fox, "For the sake of my fellow countrymen... I can help you save some unnecessary trouble!"

The white fox reached for the book and flipped through it, saying, "A goblin is the lowest level of monster?"

Feng Qingyang shook his head and said: "The lowest level monsters are giant rats and beetles...not goblins!"

The white fox stared at the Goblin information in silence for a long time and then asked: "Why is there a manually marked most dangerous creature on the Goblin page?"

Feng Qingyang was silent for a moment and then said: "Goblins cause the most damage! And the probability of mutants being born among them is not low!"

As soon as Feng Qingyang finished speaking, a soldier on horseback came to the two of them and said, "It's not good! Master Feng Qingyang! The fifth sentry tower found a large number of goblin shamans!"

Feng Qingyang, who heard the word shaman, was silent for a moment and then said: "I've helped you... Would you mind a little bit? (OS: At least a 4-digit attribute...Maybe I can let him bring me along. !)”

Bai Hu nodded subconsciously and said, "I'll come and help you after I get the mercenary card..."

At the same time, outside the fifth sentry tower, a goblin in black armor stood outside the sentry tower, looked at the crowned goblin and said, "My lord...they seem to be on guard!"

The Goblin King thought for a long time and said, "General Goblin! Attack! Use the lowest-level Goblin to kill him head-on!"

The Goblin General stared at the Goblin King and said after a moment of silence: "Follow the King's will!"

After the general goblin finished speaking and turned to leave, a goblin shaman came to the goblin king and said, "King...are those three girls so important?"

The Goblin King was silent for a long time and then said: "That is the material that the new Lord Demon God needs. It is an existence that I am not qualified to touch. Do you think it is important or not?"

The Goblin Shaman was silent for a moment and then said: "I will organize the Shaman to start using the bloodthirsty magic circle now!"

Shortly after the Goblin Shaman finished speaking and turned to leave, the Goblin King looked at the desolate area and said: "What a miserable race..."

At the same time, in the Windhelm Mercenary Guild, Bai Hu looked at the agreement and was silent for a moment before saying, "Is this agreement mandatory?"

The girl at the front desk shook her head and said, "If you don't sign this agreement... your family won't be able to get compensation after you die!"

After returning the agreement, Baihu said: "I have no family in this area! And I don't think I will die!"

The receptionist girl took out a first-level badge and said: "Now you can be exempted from the exam by paying 30 silver coins... Do you want to take the exam or pay the fee?"

The white fox took out thirty gold coins and said, "I only have gold coins... can I pay with gold coins?"

The reception girl took the gold coins and played with them for a while before saying: "These gold coins of yours need to be depreciated... After all, the circulation marks are gone... so you still need to pay 10 gold coins!"

The white fox 'took out' 10 gold coins again and said: "How is depreciation calculated... What is the ratio of gold coins to silver coins?"

Just as the reception girl was about to say something, Xueli, who appeared next to the white fox at some point, said: "The ratio of gold coins to silver coins is 1:5... If depreciated... the ratio of gold coins to silver coins is 1:1.5!"

The reception girl who heard this frowned and said, "That was before! The current depreciation ratio of gold coins is 1 to 0.8!"

After hearing this, Xueli frowned and looked at the reception girl who took the gold coin, and then said after a moment of silence: "Next time I will sell it directly at the blacksmith's shop, maybe I won't lose too much!"

Baihu subconsciously glanced at Xueli and said, "I don't care that much! After all, I can earn it back in the future!"

After speaking, the white fox reached out to take the first-level mercenary badge, looked at the reception girl and asked, "Can the mercenary mission be skipped?"

The reception girl was silent for a while and then said: "Although there is no level limit for mercenary tasks...but the deposits required for different levels of tasks are different!"

As soon as the reception girl finished speaking, Feng Qingyang's voice came from behind Bai Hu: "Have you finished setting up the mercenary brand?"

Hearing the voice, the white fox turned around and looked at Feng Qingyang, and after a moment of silence, he said, "It's done! By the way...how is the situation now?"

Feng Qingyang frowned and said: "There are too many goblins! My guards are retreating steadily..."

Before Feng Qingyang finished speaking, the reception girl looked at Feng Qingyang and said, "Do you want to issue an urgent task?"

Feng Qingyang frowned and said, "I don't have that many gold coins anymore! And you haven't paid taxes since last year...Where do you want me to get gold coins to issue mercenary missions?"

Just as the receptionist girl was about to say something, Baihu looked at Feng Qingyang and said, "Let's go to the front battlefield to see the situation first before talking about anything else..."
