Learn one small skill every day

Upon seeing the greatsword, which was as big as a door, the group of adventurers realized that they had messed with someone extraordinary.

"Fellow adventurers, let's greet each other warmly."

After saying that, Bai Miao raised his sword and slashed at the person who had just provoked him.

Chapter 257 The Chairman's Entrustment

Bai Miao's actions this time showed he had no intention of leaving any survivors.

These adventure teams that remained in the area after the great war were all significant threats.

As for the group of knockers in reality, Bai Miao believed that everyone was still on his side and that they had to fight each other because of the competitive dungeon. Even if a conflict broke out, he would spare their lives.

But Bai Miao felt little pity for these adventurers who were originally powerful in the world.

Furthermore, the imperial authorities were extremely lenient towards adventurers, allowing such large groups of them to engage in brawls, and afterwards, guild members were responsible for tallying the battle losses.

Then Bai Miao had nothing to hesitate about.

It also allows us to test the strength of these adventurers.

Bai Miao wielded his Moon Sword, cutting down one person with unstoppable force before the others reacted and launched their own attacks on him.

The mage and the warrior each performed their duties, with the warrior rushing towards Bai Miao to buy the mage enough time to cast spells.

"Vine Technique!"

Thick vines rose from the floor and wrapped around Bai Miao's legs, while someone chanted seductive music, attempting to induce a trance or other controlling effects on Bai Miao.

The warriors and other melee classes brandished their weapons and slashed at Bai Miao. Bai Miao held his Moon Sword horizontally in front of him, but the force of the impact caused his feet to sink several centimeters.

Direct physical strength is definitely not my forte...

Bai Miao twisted his joints and broke free from the vines, when another person blew out a poisoned needle from the shadows, attempting to attack Bai Miao's vitals.

But the poisoned needle stopped in front of Bai Miao. Bai Miao picked up a pebble from the ground and flicked it back, sending the pebble flying from the syringe into the man's mouth.

"You dare to provoke all of us by yourself? You're asking for trouble!"

Clad in heavy armor and wielding a greatsword, the paladin shouted "Eliminate evil!" as he leaped into the air, the sword gleaming with golden light, and slashed vertically down at Bai Miao.

"Boom!"

The attack caused the ground to tremble, and the mages in the distance, seeing Bai Miao's agile figure, began to cast spells that affected the terrain.

Frost began to condense on the ground, and there was even a layer of smooth grease on top of the frost.

In short, take whatever path is most difficult.

This time, however, Bai Miao did not give the group of magicians a chance to continue casting spells. Once the silencing gloves were activated, all surrounding sounds were eliminated, which was equivalent to the magicians being silenced.

The guild staff retreated to the outermost edge of the battlefield the moment the fighting started, their only responsibility being to check who had damaged what and to ensure the guild didn't fall apart.

"Howling Abyss".

Bai Miao activated the Abyss Howl skill, dealing 100 points of mental damage to the surrounding area.

"what!!!"

Almost simultaneously, all the melee fighters collapsed to the ground, clutching their heads in agony. Some stubbornly remained standing, but judging from the blood seeping from their eyes and nostrils, their condition was far from ideal.

Most of the magicians remained conscious, but the situation was still not much better.

Are all these people's mental strength exceeding one hundred points? That high?

Their strength and agility are generally above 50, and their mental strength may include some ability to resist mental attacks.

In other words, these adventurers are stronger overall than the hunters in Biel City.

Having figured out the whole situation, Bai Miao had no intention of continuing the discussion.

Bai Miao threw out two fireballs, eliminating the distant mages. Then, taking advantage of the dazed state of the many melee fighters under the Abyss Howling attack, he finished them off with a few more strikes.

In the end, only a bare-handed monk and the paladin remained standing on the field.

After realizing he couldn't speak, he stared angrily at Bai Miao, the light from the sword in his hand growing even stronger.

The other person, who was unarmed, seemed to possess immense power in his hands. Every punch he landed on Bai Miao's Moon Sword made Bai Miao feel his hands swell.

After fighting the two to the very end, Bai Miao simply put away his weapon and switched to using his skills.

While the Moon Sword in his hand could create a visually striking effect on the enemy and possess considerable power, such a heavy sword would ultimately hinder Bai Miao's movements.

Seeing that Bai Miao had no weapons in his hands, the paladin assumed that Bai Miao was about to surrender, while only the other monk continued to attack Bai Miao.

But to everyone's surprise, Bai Miao suddenly pulled out a pistol and emptied the magazine.

"...?"

The paladin had never seen anything like it before. Before he knew it, Bai Miao had blown his head off.

"The gun is still effective against them at close range, which is good."

Bai Miao fired a total of eight shots. The first three shots hit the monk and were deflected. It was the fourth shot, aimed at the monk's eye, that caused the fatal wound.

The paladin Bai Miao aimed at his head and fired four shots in quick succession.

After taking down the last two, Bai Miao lifted the silence effect and began looting the corpses one by one.

The equipment these people have should be able to be sold for money, but equipment is not easy to sell and is easily detected.

The jewels and money on their bodies are more sought after.

After Bai Miao finished looting the corpse, a guild member respectfully approached him and said, "This... brave adventurer, our guild leader invites you to a chat."

"Don't you want me to pay for the broken things?"

"The equipment these people are wearing will be recycled and processed by us to fund their repairs."

The staff member replied with a forced smile.

Seeing that Bai Miao had dealt with several groups of adventurers left over from the previous battle with almost no effort, he wouldn't dare ask Bai Miao for money even if he had a thousand lives.

"Oh, that's okay."

"You guys go back to the hotel first, I'll go talk to the guild leader myself."

Bai Miao told Wang Xiang and the others to go back first on the Knockers' website, as it was unclear how long the discussion would last.

"it is good."

"Are you alright? There are quite a lot of people inside."

Zhao Wanyang asked with concern, "By the way, how much money did you get?"

"This group of people is not too poor; they have a total of 31 gold coins, 212 silver coins, and 15 copper coins."

It's no exaggeration to say that this much money is enough for Bai Miao and his team to use throughout the entire instance.

The premise is that we don't undertake any high-expense projects or buy any expensive materials.

Led by the staff, Bai Miao arrived at the guild leader's office and met the energetic old man with a white beard.

"Welcome, brave adventurer. You have demonstrated your strength and earned my respect."

"What do you want from me? Do you want to pre-select them and hand over the Hero's Sword and Shield to me directly?"

Of course, such a good thing will never happen.

The guild leader stroked his beard and laughed heartily: "Not at all, to be honest, we don't know where the Sword and Shield of the Hero are either. The War Master's orders are not something we can interpret, but since the War Master says they exist, then they must exist. We, as guild administrators, must do everything we can to cooperate with the War Master."

"Including letting so many adventurers kill each other?"

"Hehehe, adventurer, as you know, there are so many adventurers in the entire empire, but not everyone is qualified to take on the War Master quest. I did this to filter out those who, even if they went to find the Sword of the Hero, would only bring shame to the War Master. I'm glad to see a valiant warrior like you... wait, is your class a mage or a warrior?"

The president was quite puzzled.

He clearly saw Bai Miao cast a fireball spell and even another advanced silence spell during the battle.

But most of the time, he saw Bai Miao wielding a sword that ordinary people could not even lift in close combat.

"Then let's use a battle mage?"

Bai Miao didn't know what his position was either, but if even the leader of the Adventurers' Guild didn't know, it was reasonable for him not to know either.

"Forget it, that's not important. No matter what profession you're in, you have to show your skills in the end. Even a priest can be worlds apart from someone who can heal a minor injury and someone who can bring someone back from the dead."

Bring back to life?

Bai Miao thought to himself, "Does this world really have such a cool ability?"

"Ahem, let's get back to business. The reason I invited you here today is to find out your determination to find the Sword of the Warrior and your loyalty to the War Master."

"What? You're questioning my loyalty to the War Commander? Damn it, do you believe I'll chop you up?!"

Bai Miao drew his Moon Sword and shouted excitedly.

"Please calm down, calm down... I didn't mean to question you..."

The guild leader raised his hand: "I believe in your loyalty, but without determination, you certainly won't find the Sword of the Warrior."

"You don't need to question my determination; I must find the Sword of the Warrior."

"Well... I wonder if you would be willing to accept this request? There might be some clues about the Sword of the Hero."

Bai Miao wondered if this was just using him as a tool.

But then I thought about it again. Now that I'm an adventurer, it's only natural for me to accept quests.

However, Bai Miao still consulted Wang Xiang and the others about this matter.

"Accept it. Regardless of whether it's a request to handle a problem that no one else can solve, a request personally issued by the chairman is very valuable."

"Okay, I'll take it."

The request seems simple: go to the Forest of Isa and collect three attribute fruits. One of them will be your reward, and you will also receive an additional 50 gold coins as a bonus.

The mere mention of the gold coin reward made Bai Miao realize that this commission was unusual.

I just killed a bunch of people and only managed to find more than 30 gold coins on them. Even if you convert the silver coins, it's still more than 20 gold coins. But this one commission is worth 50 gold coins.

That speaks volumes about its difficulty.

The price of this attribute fruit is 25 gold coins.

Materials in this world are so expensive.
