I'm a proper student; I only take nine kinds of potions every day.

Chapter 214: More Like a Village Brawl Than an Attempt to Stop the Holy Son (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

Hearing this, Ivan grinned and warmly grasped the other man's frying pan with both hands: "I've long admired Brother Dick's name!"

"Judging from your equipment and attire, I know you are definitely not an ordinary person!"

Dick laughed after hearing this: "Haha! My fame is still a little less than yours!"

After a brief exchange of pleasantries, the two business gurus, including Evan, led Richard and the others to their seats.

As David sat down, he gave the middle finger to the pale-faced young man with messy hair sitting diagonally across from him.

It's clear that the two are quite familiar with each other.

David lowered his voice and said to Evan, "That guy is Berkeley Falk, an expert in dealing with banshees and evil spirits."

After listening to David's words, Evan's eyes darted around.

Vic had previously mentioned that he was the sixth expert in Bolton City.

Of the other five experts, three have now arrived.

Two men and one woman, all looking to be in their early thirties, were all experts.

Vic turned to the shrewd couple and said, "These two are representatives from the Green Flame Brotherhood, Mr. and Mrs. Puck."

"Mr. Puck is an expert-level mage, and Mrs. Puck is an expert-level witch."

"They both have considerable combat experience in the Dream Realm. We will mainly entrust these two with the communication between our different teams this time."

After a brief nod and greeting between the two sides, Mr. Vic got down to business.

"Our intelligence indicates that the other side's ceremony will be held on the 31st, but we have decided to begin our operation tonight."

“This operation is large in scale. Our team represents the city hall, and the church will also send relevant combat personnel at the same time.”

"The Chamber of Commerce won't take any action."

“Those aristocratic old money people have confirmed that they will cooperate with us and provide us with sufficient assistance.”

Dick, in a loud and gruff voice, asked, "Captain Vic, no need for formalities."

"Right now, all I want to know is where I should go and how many people I should kill!"

Upon hearing this, Ivan turned to Richard and said, "I admire this guy!"

Vic stood up and casually waved his hand, sending out several small, dark hands that flicked out some blueprints.

"This is some intelligence we have so far, including some incomplete magic arrays and the other side's intentions."

"The main battlefield lies in the gap between reality and fantasy."

"Our main task here is to clear out these outposts on the outskirts, as well as various monsters that may cause damage to the city."

Hearing this, everyone gathered around. On the few scattered maps on the table, one could see some punctuation marks and various colored symbols.

Using this device, Evan quickly reconstructed the plan that Moro had told him the night before, a glint of shrewdness flashing in his eyes.

"It basically matches what Moro said, but these drawings contain a lot of key information."

"Of the nine sanctuaries, only three are shown here; the potion-making workshops are quite spacious; and the central tower that holds the holy son is nowhere to be found..."

"Is this all Vic knows, or are they deliberately hiding something?"

While Ivan was deep in thought, Vic said, "Next, we need to split into four groups and take down these four key strongholds."

"During this process, we may get lost or encounter various enemies."

As Vic spoke, his pale fingers tapped the map a few times: "The intelligence we can gather at this stage includes the following types."

"The first type is the unknown number of Bloodthirsty Species who have signed contracts with Sap's subordinates."

"These bloodthirsty species have undergone special modifications. Their combat capabilities are unknown, but they will be extremely dangerous."

"The second type is a large number of ghouls from the Bone Revivalists, with particular attention to the ghoul wizards and giant ghouls."

"The third type is accomplices from various cult organizations."

After saying this, Vic looked up and asked, "Does anyone have any further objections?"

Mrs. Puck shook her head: "The Green Flame Brotherhood doesn't exist."

"Our core objective this time is to reclaim that twisted and abhorrent creation; we seek nothing else."

Dick from the Sleeping Order added, "My goal is to kill Monte of the Hand of the Father, and then have a good, satisfying slaughter here!"

Vic smiled and nodded: "Thank you all for your help. I can feel your firm belief and your devotion to your faith."

Finally, he looked at Ivan: "And you guys?"

As the youngest leader here, Ivan asked directly, "How will the money be calculated? How will the merits be calculated?"

"Are those monsters killed by the head? Is there an extra bonus for taking down the enemy leader?"

"With us so spread out, how can we determine the credit we've received?"

No sooner had Evan finished speaking than David's acquaintance, Fak, an expert who specialized in dealing with banshees and evil spirits, chimed in, "Yes!"

"We guys came here mainly to make money; we can't compare to the young masters of these big organizations."

Hearing such pragmatic words, Vic was not surprised.

"Please rest assured, everyone. The prize money for this event is provided by the church, the municipality, and the nobles."

"As long as you can achieve the goals we have given you, you will receive a reward of at least $1000 to $3000."

"Furthermore, we will also fulfill the terms we agreed upon in advance."

The female expert standing next to Fak, dressed in smoky attire, spoke in a hoarse voice.

"Can't you make it possible to open up the exchange eligibility for some magical artifacts and extraordinary attributes?"

Vic shook his head: "Sorry, this is an internal benefit."

The woman sighed after hearing this and said nothing more.

Upon hearing this, Ivan grinned and said, "As long as the money is right, everything else is negotiable."

After a pause, Ivan's voice carried a hint of teasing: "If I were to kill all the leaders of these cults, would there be any other rewards?"

Vic smiled and said, "That's not within our scope of responsibility. You can ask Mr. and Mrs. Puck and Mr. Dick for it."

Upon hearing this, Ivan's heart stirred: "Aren't you going to stimulate our initiative?"

Mr. Puck smiled and said, "If you can help us recover that abomination, the Green Flame Brotherhood is willing to offer you a generous gift!"

Dick, standing to the side, waved his hand, which he was using as a frying pan, and shouted, "Arkham! You're an expert, if you can really take that guy down!"

"From now on, I'll call you Big Brother!"

After exchanging a few jokes, Vic's side began assigning tasks.

“Blacks, you and Langdon, along with Fak and the other conscripts, head to Area Four.”

"While sealing off this area, eliminate all the souls trapped there."

Black nodded. "Understood."

Vic continued pointing at the map and said, "Grey, you and a few of us brothers will stay here with Mr. Dick."

"Don't let any monsters pass through this area!"

Gray nodded vigorously: "Okay!"

Then Vic turned to Ivan and the others: "Arkham, your faction is very good at dealing with potion problems."

"You need to cooperate with the Healing Church's forces and go to the most important location."

"While destroying this No. 3 outpost, we must also erase all traces of the potion in this large area."

After a pause, Vic earnestly warned, "Just stay put after completing the mission!"

"If you encounter any danger, you can choose to evacuate on your own."

Ivan hummed in agreement: "Understood."

After assigning tasks, Vic took a deep breath and looked around: "I will accompany you all into the Dream Realm to coordinate from the center."

"If either side can't hold on, we can contact the Puck couple at any time for help."

"If others have extra resources, they can actively participate in the rescue."

"If the rescue is successfully completed and the other side is able to complete the defensive mission, there will be an additional reward of $1000."

Upon hearing this, Ivan patted his chest and said, "The Demon King is on our side! Ready!"

The Puck couple then presented each person with a thumb-sized, green flame-shaped badge.

Vic also gave each of them a black feather-shaped badge.

The former was able to contact the Puck couple through this sign.

The latter symbol is a locator used by Vic to pinpoint the location of the group and conduct rescue operations.

Finally, Vic performed a ritual for everyone.

At 8 PM, everyone needs to go through this ritual to directly arrive in the Dreamland and gather with everyone else.

Finally, in the dreamlike realm, set off as instructed.

"Finally, let me reiterate that the ritual we use involves entering a dream world in a mental state."

"So dying inside doesn't mean real death, it just means you won't be able to enter the Dream Realm again."

"I hope you will not feel any excessive burden!"

"While the weapons may not be the most convenient to use, they are provided by the Healing Church, so their quality is guaranteed."

After receiving the relevant instructions, the group was told not to leave and to wait until nightfall.

Only Black and Langdon quietly left to hold the ceremony elsewhere.

Everyone understood this.

Time passed quickly as preparations were underway.

During this time, Ivan naturally didn't hold back and ate to his heart's content, consuming a total of $5.5 worth of food in one day.

This shocked Richard and the others quite a bit.
