Sequence adventurers roaming between two worlds

Chapter 29: Emergency Recruitment

The first floor of the Adventurers' Guild in Baihe Town.

Upon hearing the voice, the receptionist turned around, her eyes lighting up: "Mr. Leo, are you done with your tour? Judging from your expression, you must have redeemed something you wanted."

Leo stepped forward, smiling and greeting him: "You've gained a lot."

"It's a pity that I still don't have enough contribution points..."

His tone was filled with emotion.

100 contribution points were used up in the cheapest Bear Breathing Technique.

They can't even exchange for a skill to practice.

Hearing this, Miss Sanhua tucked a strand of light brown hair behind her ear: "Compared to other newcomers, your start is already 'rich' enough."

Instead of continuing on that topic, she changed the subject, saying, "From what you just said, are you looking for a short-term, nearby job?"

"You just came back from outside town, aren't you going to rest?"

"You can never earn enough money. Your body is like a weapon; it needs to be well-maintained so that it can unleash its full potential later."

"...I feel alright, I don't really need to rest." Yesterday in Huashi Village, although it was a bit thrilling and exciting, the actual combat time wasn't very long.

Leo felt he could handle it.

"If you insist, then take a look at these requests." Miss Sanhua smiled helplessly. New adventurers are always full of enthusiasm: "Speaking of which, Silvermoon Forest has been quite unsettled lately. The monsters are very restless, and as a result, there are many more requests in the guild than usual."

"Right now, we are facing a severe shortage of manpower."

"Given that you have a record of completing a Black Iron-level commission... let me think, there are three commissions that meet your requirements."

Following the direction Miss Sanhua pointed, Leo looked and immediately saw the details of three commissions.

"General Commission - Slime Cleanup: A group of slimes, numbering around thirty, has recently appeared at a pig farm three kilometers east of town. They are hiding in a stinking ditch, severely impacting the farm's operations. Requirement: Clean up these slimes."

Reward: 30 silver coins, 3 contribution points.

"Common Quest - Moonlight Grass Gathering Preparation: On the edge of Silvermoon Forest north of town, herbalists recently discovered a batch of Moonlight Grass growing alongside the roots of an ancient tree. This batch of herbs is about to mature, but it has also attracted five adult dire wolves. Requirement: Clear out the five dire wolves within seven days."

Reward: 50 silver coins, 5 contribution points.

"Black Iron Level Commission: Slay the Ferocious Wolf (Urgent Recruitment): A ferocious wolf with a challenge level of 1 has appeared five kilometers north of the town. It has been entrenched near the trade route and has attacked several passing caravans, greatly impacting the supply of goods to Baihe Town. Requirement: Slay the ferocious wolf within five days."

Note: This commission has already been accepted by a Black Iron-level adventurer. Three more adventurers with the strength of "Reserve Professional" need to be recruited to complete it together.

Synergistic Rewards: 2 Gold Coins, 20 Contribution Points.

After reading through the three commissions recommended by Miss Sanhua, Leo couldn't help but frown.

Are contribution points really that hard to earn?

Even the most difficult Iron-level quests only yield 20 contribution points.

Ordinary commissions may only contribute a single-digit number of points.

"From this perspective, 100 contribution points is indeed a lot."

"It seems that Captain Ge Mie has given me most of the contribution points from the entire commission."

Unlike the lone, ferocious wolf, even though both are challenging monsters, the Goblin Chieftain is much more difficult to quest and offers higher rewards because a large number of goblins gather around him.

After thinking for a moment, Leo gave up the idea of ​​doing ordinary commissions.

The contribution points from regular commissions are too few. To earn enough for a profession skill that requires at least 15 contribution points, you would need to complete three or four regular commissions.

By the time everything is finished, it will probably take ten days to half a month.

The efficiency is extremely low.

However, it was that urgent, Black Iron-level mission that really appealed to Leo.

He certainly didn't have the strength to rival a real monster, but as one of the assistants, participating in the siege wasn't a big problem.

With his mastery of both slashing and sliding techniques, he can be considered a relatively experienced "prospective professional".

Leo looked at Miss Sanhua and asked, "I'm interested in taking on this Iron-level quest. Miss Sanhua, could you please give me a more detailed explanation of this quest?"

"This is my duty." Sanhua crossed her hands over her lower abdomen and bowed slightly. "First of all, I am very grateful that you are willing to accept this emergency commission for the sake of the stability of Baihe Town."

"As of now, including you, there are two 'reserve professionals' who have chosen to accept the task. We expect to gather all the temporary team members by the evening of the day after tomorrow and embark on the journey to defeat the ferocious wolves on the third day."

"The main force behind this commission is Mr. Sekoda, a Level 2 [Wanderer] known as the 'Hand of Shadows' and a Black Iron-level adventurer."

"Because of the nature of his profession, he needs his teammates to create opportunities for him to strike and kill."

At this point, a helpless and apologetic expression appeared on Sanhua's face: "Mr. Sekoda, as a [Wanderer], is not the best choice to deal with ferocious wolves with exceptionally keen senses."

"But now, in White River Town, he is the only remaining Iron-level adventurer; the others won't be able to return anytime soon."

"But he's still willing to take the risk."

Hearing this, Leo secretly admired him.

Despite being a Level 2 Wanderer, Mr. "Shadow Hand" still faces immense risks when confronting a Level 1 ferocious wolf.

After all, a challenge level 1 is defined as a four-person level 1 professional team with proper equipment and in good condition fighting against monsters of the corresponding level. Although they are unlikely to die, the process is still thrilling.

A level 2 professional versus a complementary four-person level 1 team—the latter is undoubtedly stronger.

In addition, there are professional disadvantages.

Therefore, he needs three teammates with the strength of "reserve professionals" who can withstand the ferocious wolves for a short period of time to assist him.

"In that case, I'm willing to accept this commission." Leo pondered for a moment, nodded, and agreed.

Not counting today, there are still two days to wait. Maybe during this time, the instructor who can teach him the Bear Breathing Technique will come back.

"Thank you so much, Mr. Leo."

Then, Miss Sanhua's tone became more tactful: "Mr. Sekoda instructed that he wanted to meet each member who accepted this recruitment mission in person."

Leo nodded.

As a support staff member, it's perfectly normal for the "main character" to want to test his skills.

Seeing that he wasn't angry, Miss Sanhua breathed a sigh of relief:

"Then, at six o'clock this evening, at the Wild Boar Tavern, Mr. Sekoda will meet you there."

"As for now, Mr. Leo, I suggest you go and take a look at the blacksmith shop in town."

She smiled mischievously: "Adventurers on their way home must take good care of their weapons in order to better embark on their journey."
