Reckless Through The New World

Chapter 272: relatively reputable

The task of chasing down the murderer brought hundreds of gold coins to the "Beginners on the Road" adventure team, more than half of which came from rewards from the Church of Death.

The Reaper Church is a very rich church. They almost monopolize the funeral industry in the Western Continent and are extremely rich. But because of the doctrine, they have fewer priests and believers, so many times, they are willing to use money to solve problems.

For example, hundreds of years ago, when they could not spare the manpower to suppress the large mass graves in the Kalipura village, they spent money to invite the famous adventurer Kalipura and his wife to bring their friends and recruit a group of people. , go to the local to establish a pioneering village, and replace them to suppress the undead monsters that may appear.

This time, they did the same.

"You guys are doing very well! It's great!" The priest of the Church of Death was fat and smiling, looking more like a businessman than a clergyman. He praised Panda and others, and said that in the future, if To fight against undead monsters, you can come to the Church of Death for help.

Although they have no manpower to allocate, no matter whether it is equipment or consumables, it doesn't matter.

"Could this be what you said, 'I pay for your life', teacher?" After he left, Ren sighed thoughtfully, "It's obviously a bad thing, but when I saw this money, I can't get angry at all. Money is such a good thing!"

"With this money, we can buy some equipment," Riana said. "Like a shield for Erwin, or a bow and arrow for you."

"Forget the bow and arrow, I have this," Ren took out a round stone from his pocket.

Born as a shepherd boy, he is very good at throwing stones. He can almost hit anywhere within twenty paces, and he never misses. The power is also very good. Although it can't kill people, who can be indifferent to being hit in the face by a stone the size of half a thumb?

Panda thinks that only someone who has swept away the star husband's entire net worth and his manager and can shout "the relationship is not broken" can do this kind of thing.

Since Ren didn't need to buy equipment, the money was finally used on Riana and bought her a long gun.

Riyana has learned spear art from the guard of Kalipura Village, Stroud, and her level is not bad. Even though she's actually better at fighting with bare hands, nothing is better with a weapon than without a weapon.

If it really doesn't work, she can drop her weapon and fight with her bare hands at any time.

That long spear was bought at the Adventurer's Association. The body of the spear is made of elastic hardwood. After being soaked in oil and wrapped with thread, it can withstand a few cuts with ordinary swords, so that it will not be cut off. The tip of the gun is made of fine iron, and can be freely replaced. The one-legged president said that when they have money in the future, there will be an enchanted steel gun head in the association that can be replaced.

As for the price of this stainless steel gun head... If this kind of task can be repeated several times, it is not unaffordable.

After changing the equipment, the apprentices suddenly became more confident and couldn't wait to show their skills. Because the last mission was completed very well, the credit rating of the adventure team has also improved a lot, skipping the one-star stage and being upgraded to two-star, and can undertake many missions with certain requirements.

"We upgraded so easily?" Seeing the receptionist aunt adding two stars to the adventure team's data record, Ren asked in surprise, "So fast?"

"The sheriff and the Church of the Dead give you high marks." The receptionist aunt said, "Although it is not in compliance with the rules, the rules are also set by people. If you can get their praise, of course, there is no need to linger on the one-star stage. Do those tasks that are not oily and watery."

Erwin and Ren looked at each other and nodded in unison.

It's good to get it, they don't want to be old-fashioned and follow the rules!

At this time, Riana was already checking the task list, and after a while, she found a task that seemed worthwhile.

Kill the Rat People in the sewers.

"Sewer?" Seeing these three words, Ren frowned, "It's too dirty!"

"That section of the sewer has been abandoned for more than 20 years," said the receptionist's aunt. "It was originally in the dock area. Later, in order to strengthen the city's safety construction, the houses in the dock area were forcibly relocated to the city. Now the dock area is almost all warehouses or something. ——It is said that the original sewers were used for smuggling. The reason why we want to suppress the rat man this time is that a smuggler was blackened by the rat man, and he has no ability to take revenge, and he can't swallow this breath before publishing it. this mandate."

"Smugglers can also issue orders?" Erwin asked in surprise, "Isn't it said that your Adventurer's Association does not do illegal business?"

"Where is it illegal to kill the rat people in the sewers?" the receptionist aunt asked.

"Have these rat people ever done anything bad?" Ren asked. "If it's just blackmailing the smugglers, I don't think they need to be wiped out."

"The Rat Man is also one of Pollock's underground forces. They often commit crimes in an organized manner. Their main income comes from human trafficking and folk vendettas. They are the core combat component of the 'Black Adventurers' group." President One-Legged Said, "My predecessor, who wanted to unite multiple adventurers to rectify the 'Black Adventurers' group, was assassinated by the Rat Man."

Panda nodded: "Since that's the case, then there's no problem. Are there any restrictions on this task?"

"Yes, if you take it, you can't give up in the next 20 days. If you don't complete it, you can't do other tasks during this time." The receptionist aunt said, "This is to reduce the risk of those who take the task."

Of course, Panda and the others have no objection to this. So register, sign, and the task "novice on the road" team is accepted.

Different from the previous tasks, this time the task registration was recorded with a separate piece of straw paper. In addition to the mission introduction, there are only pandas' signatures and the signature of the receptionist aunt as a witness.

Grass stem paper is a paper made from the stalks of a kind of "papyrus" in the southern coastal areas. Compared with animal hide paper and magic paper, this paper is too absorbent, and the strokes cannot be very fine. That is to say, the characters must be written in larger size in order to be more legible. It is also called "civilian paper" along with the leaf paper in the east, but in fact the price is not affordable for the common people in the countryside. Only the wealthy commoners in the city can afford such paper.

A separate piece of paper is used to record the task information, probably because the straw paper cannot write too dense characters, but in contrast, the panda thinks it is more likely to be another reason.

Confidential.

Watching the piece of paper being carefully blown dry and tucked into the file folder, he couldn't help but have a premonition.

The mission this time is definitely not as simple as "go to the sewers and kill some rat people"...
