Ryan's Sword

Chapter 240 Nine Scenes Entering the City
The pastor in Busson Town is a little old man with all white hair. When he trotted all the way to the gate of the town under the guidance of the city guard soldiers, he was out of breath.

The officer of the city guard who was standing outside the town gate heard the movement behind him, turned around to meet him, and supported the old pastor with an apologetic expression: "I'm sorry to trouble you, Pastor Bridge."

"You don't need to be polite to me, Lord Richard," Bridge, who was wearing a holy white robe with wide sleeves, leaned on an oak staff that was a head taller than him, stroked his heart, and said with a breath : "It was originally my duty to spread the Gospel of the Holy Light. If I can help your city guards, I would be even more honored as an old bone."

The two seemed to have known each other for a long time. After exchanging greetings with smiles on their faces, Richard led the old pastor out of the city gate, and faced the cold-eyed adventurers on the avenue surrounded by the city guards.

"If it's convenient for you, please start now!"

"it is good."

Bridge nodded, let go of Richard's hand that supported him, and raised his cane reverently: "May the Holy Light be with you!" There was no lengthy incantation, and the old pastor completed the divine gesture in the blink of an eye. Casting of the spell.A soft milky-white light rose from the top of the long staff in his hand, and instantly fell on the gathered group of adventurers.

The brilliance of the baptism of the Holy Light fell, covering the adventurers without exception. Richard and the city guard soldiers under his command nervously observed the possible changes in them, but found that the group of strong men on the opposite side except their own Aside from a slight increase in the breath, there was no corrosion of the undead as if they were splashed with sulfuric acid when they were illuminated by the holy light.

"By the Holy Light, they are good lads, Lord Richard."

The old pastor Bridge put down his cane and said with a smile.

"That's fine, that's fine..."

The test of the Holy Light will not deceive people, and officer Richard also heaved a sigh of relief.At the same time, he turned around and shouted: "Disarm!" This loud shout even used the technique of a battle cry, and almost all the soldiers of the city guard put down their weapons in dismay.

What's the matter, do you have to fight to be happy?
Seeing the reluctance of those young fighters, Ian couldn't help but rolled his eyes.

"I'm sorry, the enemy's sneak attack has made people in the town panic, that's why the soldiers reacted a little too aggressively, please don't take it to heart," the sophisticated Richard smiled bitterly, and explained to the adventurers, " I promise, as long as the adventurer certificate is confirmed, there will be no additional inspection procedures."

His attitude was sincere, and there was a reason for the interception and inspection, and the adventurer didn't care too much about it, so the matter was revealed.

While waiting to enter the city, Ian stepped forward to negotiate a few words, and it was exactly as he expected. Not long ago, the city guards did suffer a long-planned attack, and the enemy was an adventurer who pretended to be a city and sneaked into the town undead monster.Those necromancers carefully concocted by necromancers can't tell the difference between living and living people at all, but it was this negligence that caused the city guards to suffer heavy losses.

Upon hearing the news, Ian exchanged glances with several adventure team captains, and immediately reported the attack on last night.When Richard heard that the adventurer killed and brought the corpse of the enemy, the city guard officer's eyes lit up and he asked, "Where is the corpse, take me there quickly."

Without ordering, a few adventurers carrying body bags immediately dragged the corpses over, opened the mouth of the bag, and revealed the corpses of snake people who had died unrepentantly.

"Hiss..." Seeing the strange shape of the snake man and the terrifying scales, Richard's pupils shrank slightly, and a trace of killing intent could not help showing in his eyes, "It seems that this group of monsters attacked and killed the sentinels a few nights ago. Give these corpses to me, the magicians accompanying the army need these research materials very much." Recalling the episode that happened outside the town gate before, he added: "Don't worry, I will turn over the corpses as merit points to record your tasks Among them, you will not be allowed to suffer this attack in vain."

"As it should be."

"It's an honor to be able to help."

Several leading adventure team captains flattered.The merit points in Richard's mouth are directly linked to the task rewards, and the adventurers came here for this, so naturally there will be no doubts.

Richard was obviously very concerned about the unexpected body of the snake man. He left a personal guard to guide the adventurers to the hotel that the military requisitioned for them to live in. He personally took the body and sent the body to the military camp. There is the accompanying magician.

"Bandit Suppression (Bounty): Handover (1/1), Completed"

"Hint: Mission Reward: 3000Exp"

"Trigger task-town attack and defense (bounty): The battle situation in Buson Town is not optimistic, please participate in the defense of the town under the arrangement of the military, time limit: 10 days, task reward: basic experience value 50000Exp, bounty and The extra rewards will be directly linked to the merit points. Mission failure: Robson Town was captured by the enemy during the defense period, and the merit points will be cleared this time.”

At the same time as the city guard officer turned and left, the updated mission information was simultaneously refreshed in Ian's vision.The task name changed from aggressive bandit suppression to more defensive. The appearance of this detail change made Ian raise his eyebrows slightly, and the thoughts that were originally just guesses in his mind became clearer.

Near noon, Ian and his party, who were taken to the hotel by the city guards to rest, finally met the fellow adventurers who arrived in the town first.However, these colleagues who occupied the hotel lobby did not look very good on the outside. Almost everyone was wrapped in thick bandages, and there were not a few severely injured people with more serious physical disabilities.

Looking at the wounded soldiers in the room, Ian and his party who just arrived also looked at each other in blank dismay.The role of adventurers in positional warfare may not be as good as that of well-trained city guards, but if it comes to saving their lives, the skills of these old fritters will throw those new recruits a few blocks away.

Even this group of senior adventurers were wounded, and Ian had an intuitive understanding of the "unoptimistic" in the mission description.

"Hey, Kuanghu, why did you come here, you bastard?" The wounded soldier yelled in anger, but a big man with a flat head who was only half shorter than Tamm stood up, pointed at him and shouted: "I thought you fucking went to the other two battlefields!"

"Stop talking nonsense to me, you're not dead yet!"

The one who could speak in this tone was obviously an acquaintance. Kuanghu touched his shiny bald head, apologized to everyone around him with a smile, and immediately walked over with his eyes wide open.

In addition to him, many adventurers in Ian's business quickly discovered familiar faces in the crowd, and immediately gathered at the places where their acquaintances and friends were, exchanging information with each other.
