Wizard: I brought the wrong system...

Chapter 150 Mission?

Bang bang bang!

The incessant knocking was irritating, and an annoyed voice came from inside: "Who is it? Stop knocking, the door's unlocked, come in!"

The voice coming from inside was very shrill, with a duck-like lisp, and it must have belonged to a young boy going through puberty.

Boom!

The knocking didn't stop, and the rhythm didn't even change.

"Coming, coming! Who is it? Don't you know to come in?"

Squeak-!

Keita opened the door with a look of annoyance, but when he saw who had knocked, his expression immediately changed, and he said with delight, "Brother Desi? What brings you here?"

Having spent a long time with Yaro, Keitan was naturally familiar with Desi, who had been of great help to him in the past. Keitan was naturally very excited to see Desi, whom he hadn't seen for a long time.

"Come in quickly," Keita said warmly. "I just found some great tea today, let me brew some for you to try!"

Upon hearing Keita's voice, Desi seemed to regain some of his spirits and, following Keita's lead, entered the cabin.

Inside the wooden house was a small fire pit, and a small iron kettle that had already boiled was hanging on the fire pit. Steam filled the air, but it was drawn out of the house by a pipe next to it.

It's clear that everything inside the house has been rearranged.

Looking around at the empty cabin, Desi turned back and asked gently, "Aren't Yaro and Delia staying here anymore?"

Keita used a wooden frame to hold the handle of the iron kettle and carefully poured tea, explaining, "Yaro has moved to the experimental area, and Senior Delia has joined the Guardian Army. She usually lives in the Guardian Army's alternate dimension, but I heard they're on vacation recently. She told me yesterday that she'll be coming back to stay in the next couple of days, so I left the door open for her."

The tea was pinkish in color, which looked a bit strange, but it was very fragrant with flowers and should be a pot of excellent flower tea. It was just that it was filtered very cleanly and there were no crumbs.

"Thanks."

Desi politely accepted the coffee cup and asked casually, "Do you know Jaro's address?"

Keitaen moved a log to use as a stool. Hearing Desi's words, he sat down and asked in confusion, "Isn't he in room 26 in section D? Brother Desi, haven't you been there?"

Desi took a sip of tea, looked up and explained, "Well, I was assigned to accompany the new students on the ship, so I haven't been at the academy for a while."

Keita poured himself a glass, took a couple of sips, and said, "It seems to be missing something, Brother Desi. Would you like some honey?"

Suddenly remembering something, Keita asked casually, "By the way, Brother Desi, is there something urgent you need to see Yaro about?"

"No need," Desi refused the honey pot offered by Keitaen. "I recently came across a good mission and wanted to see if you all had the time to complete it together."

"Task?"

Keita, who was always looking for short, high-reward missions, couldn't sit still after hearing this. He immediately pressed on in his shrill, puberty-like voice, "What kind of mission is it? How much is the reward?"

Desi placed the steaming teacup on the crooked wooden table beside him, turned around and explained with a smile, "As you know, I used to take on a task from Instructor Alice, and I would get a few magic stones as a reward every month."

"Yes, I've heard of it," Keita nodded, looking at Desi expectantly.

Desi didn't mince words and continued, "Instructor Alice is recruiting again recently. It seems her experiment is in its final stages, requiring a large number of apprentices to be infused with different types of magic. The time requirement is very short, only two days. The reward for the task is ten magic stones!"

"Two days? Ten magic stones!" Keitan's eyes widened.

This number is staggering for any apprentice.

Yaro collects 'fluorescent powder', but in a day he can only get a few magic stones.

Are evil spirits easy to deal with?

The evil spirit is far more powerful than a wild wolf. How much should a wild wolf be worth?

In my past life, it would have cost at least a thousand, right?

As for Yaro, he has to kill countless evil spirits stronger than wild wolves every day just to barely earn a few magic stones.

For ordinary junior apprentices like Keita, tasks of this level are very difficult to complete.

Now, as long as you go to the mentor's space and cast your own magic for two days, you can get ten magic stones!

Isn't this faster than robbing someone?

Desi smiled and asked, "Are you going or not?"

"Yes! I definitely have to go!"

Keita nodded repeatedly. How could he miss such a good opportunity?

Is taking on this task less worthwhile than completing other tasks?

In her excitement, Keita accidentally bumped into the wooden table next to her.

Ding-dong!

The already unstable teacup fell to the ground with a crisp sound, and the scalding tea quickly splashed onto Desi's arm.

"Oh!"

Desi instinctively stood up and took a step back, a strange glint of clarity flashing in his eyes, only to be quickly replaced by a crimson glint. His expression changed drastically, and he turned back, angrily shouting, "What are you doing!"

"I'm sorry, I'm so sorry."

Keita apologized repeatedly, looked around, and quickly brought over the honey jar, explaining, "Quickly rinse it with cold water and apply some honey."

Honey is rich in acidic substances and high concentrations of sugars. Bacteria have difficulty growing in such high sugar concentrations, and it can also relieve swelling and reduce pain. The vitamins it contains can promote metabolism and accelerate wound healing.

"You...no, no need!" A struggle flashed in Desi's eyes, but it was ultimately extinguished by the crimson light. "It's okay, it doesn't hurt anymore. Just be careful next time."

Desi lowered his arm, his sleeves hanging down naturally, concealing his flushed skin, and his face regained its usual smile: "When is Delia coming back? We can't forget about her for such a good thing."

"Senior Delia said she'd be back in the next couple of days, but I'm not sure exactly when. You... Brother Desi, when does the mission start?" Keita asked somewhat nervously.

He was indeed rash just now. Although Desi didn't say anything, how could he, who often cooks, not know how hot the freshly brewed tea was?

Knowing that Desi was looking out for her and didn't want to embarrass her, Keita couldn't help but add, "Brother Desi, you really should try it, honey works very well."

"Okay, I understand," Desi said, not bothering with such details. He focused on explaining, "There's still plenty of time to prepare for the mission, more than half a month. If you want to join this mission, you must apply to Instructor Alice in advance."

"This is a major mission, and many people already know about it. You should tell Delia as soon as possible, and remember to come early, otherwise..."

As Desi was answering the question, a surprised voice suddenly rang out from the doorway: "Brother Desi?"

Delia returned just as she was carrying large bags and small packages.
