lone star legend

Chapter 264 Strange Guest
PS: Dear brothers of the Ax Gang, Ax has opened a new mountain. "The Origin of Feng Se Fantasia" If you like axes, come and join us.

"Hello, sir, may I help you?" In front of the task release counter, a very pretty girl received me.

"Aren't you an NPC?" I suddenly asked without thinking.

Slightly stunned, but the girl recovered quickly, "Yes, I am a player, I was conscripted by the system, and I came to work in this mercenary union, but don't worry, sir, we are all trained by the system In terms of ability and confidentiality, we are not inferior to NPCs, and we have absolute professional ethics." The girl replied with a smile.

Nodding, I know that with the continuous integration of Peerless and reality, Peerless is no longer just a game for people to entertain and entertain, it has become a new world, a new world that is not much different from reality, If there is something to say, Peerless is more exciting and fascinating than reality. In reality, more and more people cannot live without Peerless, and the number of full-time players is increasing every day, just like the girl in front of me. , to replace the position of NPC and become a staff member of the mercenary union. This is her job, the job of supporting the family. With the continuous consumption of the earth's resources, this is probably the original intention of the establishment of this peerless world.

"I want to post a mission, and the reward is 1 jewel coin." I said lightly.

"1 jewel coin?" The girl was obviously stunned when she heard my reward. It's not impossible, but those are quite perverted tasks. You must know that money is not so easy to earn no matter in reality or in the world.

However, she is a well-trained professional after all, the girl immediately returned to normal after a brief surprise, and said with a professional smile, "Sir, according to your reward, we will set it as a B-level task, so only those who have The mercenary group with B-level qualifications is participating in the competition, and there are only 7 mercenary groups with B-level qualifications in Peerless, will you designate the mercenary group yourself or will we help you choose?"

"I'm sorry, can I not specify the level of mercenaries?" I frowned, dizzy, what I want is an answer, not a powerful helper, if I really need it, why do I need to come here?

Regarding my conditions, the girl was obviously stunned again. Other players tried to find high-level mercenaries, but the other party was lucky. After spending such a high reward, they didn't have any requirements for the level of the mercenary group. This is the mercenary world. It's an anecdote, the other party must have money and nowhere to spend it, and come to have fun, right?
"Sir, as your service guide, I have the obligation to remind you of some things. First of all, you have the right to choose the mercenary group and its mercenaries you need. On this point, we only give the most appropriate suggestions. In addition, even if you The mercenary group was chosen, but if the head of the other party refuses, the entrustment agreement cannot be established. After all, the mercenary group has credibility. Once the mission cannot be completed, the credibility of the mercenary group will be reduced. The development of the mercenary group is quite unfavorable, so each mercenary regiment leader is quite cautious when choosing tasks, not all tasks are accepted. Finally, because this is not a non-level task issued by the system, if you choose a low-level mercenary As for the corps, even if it succeeds, the level of the mercenary group will not be raised much." The girl said responsibly.

With a slight smile, I knew that the other party must think that I came here because of other intentions.You must know that in today's mercenary world, the rank of the mercenary regiment is very important. A high rank not only means honor, but also represents wealth.The higher the reward, the higher the level of the task, so there are fewer mercenary regiments that can be undertaken. Therefore, for the level of the mercenary regiment, everyone is trying their best to improve themselves while attacking others. False missions are a common trick used by some people.Deliberately sending out some extremely difficult missions, and choosing some small mercenary regiments who are eager to become famous to undertake, so the missions will naturally fail, and the mercenary regiment will suffer disaster due to the loss of credibility and compensation issues. Such things are not uncommon.

"My mission doesn't require any mercenaries or mercenaries. As long as they can help me, I don't care what level they are." I said indifferently.

"Well, okay, since the husband has decided, we should obey." The girl is very obedient.After a pause, he continued to ask, "Sir, you can talk about your mission now."

"I want to find a place. The clue is the fire that never goes out. No matter who it is, as long as it can tell me where it is, my 1 jewel coin will be his."

For the strange guest in front of her, the girl was completely speechless, no wonder she didn't appoint a mercenary group, what the other party needed was not a mercenary group at all.

"This, sir,,," the girl was a little embarrassed.

"What's wrong? Are you unwilling to take on my task?" I asked with a frown.

"No, no, why would we refuse a guest's mission? It's just, it's just that such missions are rare. It is difficult for us to classify the nature of missions. This will cause us to be a little bit in the commission settlement and the amount of compensation for the mercenary group. Problem." The girl said the difficulty.

"Don't worry, the commission will be based on your highest standard. As for the amount of compensation, I don't need it." I said straightforwardly.

Looking at me blankly, the girl is really speechless, a rich man.

"Sir, no, it's okay to talk about the commission, but if you cancel the compensation amount, this is not allowed by the system, so let's set the compensation amount to the lowest, 1%, that is, compensation of [-] gold, [-] worlds currency."

"Well, whatever, you can figure it out. I'll wait for three days in the Tiger Roar Tower in Baihu City, hoping to have good news." Thinking about it, it would be really bad if there was no compensation amount. Some people who want to hit the big luck come to mess around. After all, the 1% compensation is not a decimal. If you are not sure, you will generally not make such a joke.

After the main terms of the agreement were negotiated, the next step was much easier. It didn’t take much time. After leaving behind my alias Canglang, I left the noisy mercenary union and headed straight to Huxiao, the largest inn in Baihu City. building.

Tiger Roaring Tower is a comprehensive consumer place integrating inns and restaurants. Because it is located in the most prosperous area of ​​Baihu City, and its architectural style is unique, it is like a fierce tiger howling up to the sky, so it has also become the symbol of Baihu City. One of the most famous buildings, there are constant crowds of people here every day, and some even joke that if you come to Baihu City and don't go to the Huxiao Tower to listen to a show and drink a cup of wine, then you will come to Baihu City for nothing. The popularity of Xiaolou is gone.

Soon, I came to the Tiger Roaring Tower. As usual, the restaurant was still full of friends and victorious friends. The level of excitement was definitely not comparable to that of ordinary restaurants. Seeing this, I couldn't help frowning slightly, even though I had expected it beforehand. , but it was not so popular when I came here before. Now not only inside the restaurant, but also outside the building are full of people, the degree of crowding can be imagined.Alas, I would have changed to another inn if I knew this. Unfortunately, I am not familiar with this White Tiger City. I have never been to other places except the last time I visited the Tiger Roaring Tower with Li Wang and the others for the mission of the Magical Ancient Temple. , but although there were many people last time, it seems that there are not so many people, what is going on?
Fortunately, the person in charge of the Tiger Roaring Tower is not an idiot. In view of this, four high-level but low-intelligence NPCs were specially arranged to guard the gate. Although there were many people, the gate was not blocked.

"Sir, are you working at the tip or staying at the store?" A service staff asked me with a professional smile when I came to the counter.

"Stay in the hotel, give me a quieter room." I said with a frown. I was dizzy from the quarrel at the mercenary union just now, and I didn't expect the situation in the Huxiao Tower to be even worse. For me who always likes quiet It's unbearable, and the only thing I'm looking forward to now is for someone to provide me with an answer right away, to get out of here early.

"Sir, because the guest rooms are relatively tight recently, the four-level rooms of Tian, ​​Di, Xuan and Huang are all full except for the highest-end Tianzihao, which still has a few vacancies. Do you need a Tianzihao room?" the service staff asked carefully. , after all, my face doesn’t look very good at the moment.

"Well, it's Tianzi, as long as it's quiet." I said without thinking.

"Okay, please don't worry, sir. Tianzihao is the highest-grade guest room in our Huxiao Building. It is the best in every aspect. I guarantee your satisfaction, sir. I don't know how long you will stay here."

"Three days, someone will come to see me during this period. If I'm not here, you can entertain him for me." After finishing speaking, I took out a gold bar (one gold bar = 500 taels of gold) and put it in front of him.And said lightly, "Except for my expenses, the rest is your reward."

For such a generous guest, this is obviously the first time the player service staff met him. He thought he was a troublesome guest, but unexpectedly he turned out to be a God of Wealth. Hehe, this is a huge bounty.

"Ah! Please don't worry, sir. I understand, I will definitely handle everything you have asked me properly." At this moment, the service staff's attitude was so respectful that he almost knelt down.

Damn, money is really a good thing, just now I called you Mr., but after giving the money, I'll be an uncle. Alas, I really don't know if he's calling me uncle or Mr. Qian.

"By the way, why is Huxiao Tower so lively? What are those people doing?" I asked casually.

"Hey, sir, they are waiting to hear about the book. There will be a storyteller on stage in a while, and the talk is very exciting. Are you interested? If so, I will arrange a private room for you?" Service The staff said fawningly.

"No need, I'm not interested in this, ask someone to lead the way." I said lightly.

"Oh, No. 7, take this uncle to room No. [-] of Tianzi, greet him carefully, and don't neglect it." The disappointment was fleeting, and the service staff immediately said to a low-intelligence NPC standing beside him.
