Chapter 33 Investigation Task (for further reading)

Out of gratitude for the old man's concern, Li Cha stopped concealing immediately: "Your Excellency, I have already learned the Shadow Grip, and I should not consider other witchcraft in a short time. I plan to focus on improving the basic knowledge at the moment. It will be very convenient when the time comes." Go to the wild to complete the mission."

The old man nodded subconsciously. Suddenly, he came back to his senses for a moment of astonishment, and asked, "What did you say, you learned the Shadow Grip in half a month? How is this possible!"

Seeing the shocked expression of the old man, Li Cha thought to himself, fortunately he still has some reservations, if he said that he has reached the level of proficiency, he still doesn't know what the old man will think.

The old man suddenly looked quite disappointed, and waved his hand, as if he didn't want to communicate with Li Cha any longer.

When Li Cha saw this, he also looked dazed, not knowing why, but he still politely saluted and left the library.

The old man behind him sighed heavily. For him who has been in the third-level wizard apprenticeship stage for nearly 20 years, what kind of genius has never seen it before. Learning the Shadow Grip in half a month is the chief among newcomers. It is absolutely impossible!
I remember that the head of the last group of students seemed to be a black-haired girl, who learned the Shadow Grip in about a month or so, that is already an extraordinary talent!

Li Cha, who had just returned to the dormitory, planned to read the "Illustrated Book of Common Monsters in the Sludge Swamp" for a while, and then went to the mission area to see if there were any missions suitable for one person to complete. He didn't want to kill monsters alone, but wanted to In actual combat, accumulate experience, complete some collection tasks by the way, earn points and magic stones.

An hour later, Li Cha came to the mission hall, carefully staring at the missions on the stone wall in the center of the hall, looking for suitable missions.

After a while, Li Cha took a fancy to two tasks.

The first one is the collection task [Gathering Shadow Grass]. A third-level wizard apprentice of the school needs three fresh shadow grass plants to conduct potion experiments. The reward is six points and five magic stones, but the task has a time limit and requires Finished in two days.

Shadow grass is a relatively common herb in the mud swamp, and it is distributed everywhere, so it is not difficult to find it.

The second is the patrol mission [Clearing the Swamp Lone Spider]. The number of various spiders near the school's resident has recently begun to increase, and they attack people coming and going from time to time. Please kill Swamp Lone Spiders within a week, and the task rewards ten points and eight magic stones.

The swamp solitary spider is the lowest-level spider monster. It likes to live alone. In terms of combat power, it is lower than the crystal web spider. It can be regarded as the best object for Li Cha to practice.

Although the notes for these two tasks suggest that several first-level wizard apprentices form a team to complete them, Li Cha thinks that with his current strength, he can basically complete them independently.

However, before accepting the mission, there is still some preparation to be done. With the previous mission experience, Li Cha feels that no matter how sure he is, life-saving potions and alchemy bombs to deal with emergencies are still essential!
After all, there are unpredictable things in the sky, and people have misfortunes and blessings!
Li Cha, who had just returned to the dormitory, took the magic stone and prepared to go to the trading area to buy some potions and alchemy products, but he didn't expect to hear a knock on the door just as he was about to set off.

Li Cha opened the door and saw Stephana in a gray robe standing pretty at the door.

"Li Cha, don't you invite me to sit in for a while?" Stephana said with a smile.

"If you have anything to say, let's talk directly!" Li Cha blocked the door, and he still had a headache for this Stephana.

He wanted to keep a distance, but the other party always came to the door proactively!

Stephana stroked her hair by her ears, pursed her red lips and said, "Li Cha, do you have any misunderstandings about me? But these are all in the past, it's not important. What's important is that I have some news , you will definitely be interested.”

Li Cha thought for a while, but he still wanted to see what kind of medicine was sold in this white lotus gourd, so he moved sideways to make room, and said, "Come in."

Stephana glanced at Li Cha proudly, and walked into Li Cha's dormitory gracefully.

After pouring a glass of water for Stephana, Li Cha also sat down and said, "Let's talk now."

"Recently, I've heard that there are monsters appearing in many places in Heron Kingdom. Although most of them are low-level monsters, they are already very dangerous for ordinary families." Speaking of this, Stephana He stopped and stared at Li Cha with beautiful eyes.

Li Cha's pupils shrank, thinking of the tree demon that the family had jointly killed before. Indeed, even low-level monsters are not easily killed by ordinary families, and the price will be paid in blood!
"But I can help you and protect your family from being affected." Stephana flicked her nails lightly and said with a smile.

There is no free lunch in the world. Li Cha looked calm and asked in a deep voice: "Tell me, what are your conditions? But first you have to prove that you can help me!"

"Don't worry about this. As long as you agree, I will contact my uncle, Earl Harris of Rosby County, through special channels tonight, and ask him to ensure the safety of your family. In Rosby County, I think you should too. Heard about the Harris family!"

Richard nodded. He knew that what Stephana said was true. The strength of a hereditary earl was extraordinary in ordinary society, and there were usually special channels to recruit professionals to kill monsters.

I remember the last time, Earl Harris arranged for Stefano, a second-level wizard apprentice, to investigate the monster incident of the Richard family.

"Oh, continue!" Li Cha said calmly.

Li Cha's calm look made the appreciation in Stephana's eyes even stronger.

"My condition is very simple. I want you to join my team and help me complete a mission. You know, the school's semi-annual assessment requires each of us to obtain more than 30 points. I want to complete it as soon as possible."

"On this condition?"

"On this condition! If you agree, the safety of your family rests on me!" Stephana said quite confidently.

Li Cha looked at her suspiciously, and asked, "What is the mission?"

He felt that this matter seemed not so simple.

"School has released a new investigation task, the content is to investigate the spider trail in the southwest of the silt swamp, find out the reason for the abnormal increase in the number of spiders there, the reward is 50 points and 25 magic stones, all the points belong to me, magic stones can You will get half of it, and the other half will be shared equally among the remaining three in the team.

You know the spider trail to the southwest, it's the place where your beautiful senior sister invited you to complete the crystal web spider mission together last time. "

Li Cha looked at Stephana like a fool: "Do you know how dangerous it is there? Do you think a team full of rookies can successfully complete this task?"

"Li Cha, I have already accepted the task, and I have to leave tomorrow.

But you can rest assured that the team members are all carefully selected by me, not mediocre. In addition, I can also provide alchemy products and potions, but whether the mission can be completed in the end depends on your strong support. "

Li Cha was silent!If this is the case, this task is not impossible.

Although there are certain risks, my own strength is not what it used to be, and just by taking this opportunity, I can earn a wave of energy points!

"Well, you go and prepare first. For alchemy products, five bottles of Ice Bite, ten bottles of Fire Dance Star, twenty packs of Silver Moon Dust, and medicine."

"Stop!!!" Stephana raised her eyebrows immediately, and scolded angrily, "Li Cha! Do you know how many magic stones are needed for what you just said?"

Li Cha spread his hands, and jokingly said: "You said this, you can provide alchemy products and potions, I'm not worried about your safety, of course, the more the better."

"Up to five bottles of Fire Dance Star, ten packs of Silver Moon Dust, that's all. If you want other items, you can buy them yourself! Gather in the mission area tomorrow morning!" Without saying a word, Stephana left angrily.

Li Cha was overjoyed, after all, he was still a child, so he lost his temper so soon!

However, there is a sentence that Li Cha wanted to ask just now, but after thinking about it, he still didn't ask it.

Because if Stephana just wanted to earn points, then doing a few more simple and safe tasks would quickly add up to 30 points, but Stephana insisted on choosing to complete this task, there must be some unknown reason .
