Light Keeper

Chapter 582 A Pretty Noble Girl 19
Although the flame wolf is easy to kill, it is very troublesome to find.

This thing is not a herd animal, there are only two or three in a range, even with the assistance of Liu Guang, she still killed seven or eight days before finding a magic crystal core of the flame wolf!
Her harvest in the past few days is pretty good. In addition to the flame wolf magic crystal core with extremely low explosion rate, she has also harvested a lot of magic crystal cores from such first-level magic beasts as wind rabbits and stone rats. The skills brought by the crystal core are not very good, so they are not very valuable. They can only be sold for a few silver coins or a dozen silver coins.

Song Shuyun and Jenkins did not have a good life during this period, because there was no one who was familiar with the forest, Song Shuyun did not dare to light a fire easily, and only after cleaning up all the nearby creatures could they start a fire to boil water and barbecue , but will soon go out again.

So the two of them have been eating half-baked jerky mixed with the hard biscuits she prepared earlier, which made even a non-picky eater like Jenkins a little frustrated.

Finally found this wind-type flame wolf demon core, both of them were relieved by coincidence.

After finishing this task, the two went to the Dark Tooth Worm. In Song Shuyun's imagination, with the assistance of the wood spirit, the Dark Tooth Worm's task should be easier to complete than the Flame Wolf.

After all, it's a collection task! If they are all worms the size of a calf, it's not easy to squeeze two bottles of worm liquid.

But when she saw the dark toothworm, Song Shuyun realized how ridiculous this idea was!
A dark tooth worm is only as big as Song Shuyun's palm, and a flesh worm is even smaller...

Moreover, both flesh worms and adults are very fierce in Song Shuyun's eyes, so it's no wonder that the task rewards are obviously good, but no one nearby has seen them.

She endured the nausea and let the wood spirit drive away the adult worms. She squeezed the worms and squeezed the worm liquid into the crystal bottle herself. A worm could only squeeze out a little bit, and it didn't take much effort for her to spit out as much phlegm!
And a crystal bottle is about [-] milliliters.

God knows how long it will take her to squeeze two bottles.

Jenkins can't help her too much. The stupid big man is only suitable for rough work. For this kind of delicate work, he can't control his strength at all. He often squeezes in and half pulls the worm's body, and the worm fluid squeezed out is also turbid. All kinds of debris are in there.

Song Shuyun didn't dare to bet on whether this kind of thing could be used to complete the task, so she had to let Jenkins collect some standard potions nearby.

The meat worm's hand feels soft and sweet, and it will be tricked if you are not careful. Fortunately, Song Shuyun also has the skill of the eye of truth, so she can move freely in the dark.

But because of this, she left a deep shadow in her heart. The feel of a meat worm is already uncomfortable enough, not to mention the viscera under the perspective and the four big teeth that cannot be ignored under any level of vision...

what……

dislike!
In addition to the troubles caused by the meat worms, occasionally one or two adults who are not afraid of the wood spirits will appear.

Adults are extremely fast and not only have sharp teeth, but also sharp burrs on their wings and legs.

Song Shuyun's strong anticipation consciousness and Liu Guang could kill it together. It's hard to imagine how amazing the effect would be when this kind of thing rushed over in groups.

From this point of view, the task of collecting insect liquid is more difficult than the task of hunting flame wolves, and it can even be said to be the most difficult of the novice tasks!
From this point of view, Song Shuyun must be more careful, not because of the dark toothworm, but because if he completes the task too fast, he will fall into the eyes of someone with intentions.

She has been a high-ranking person before, even in a very low-level small world, but human nature is the same, and the interests of the ruling class are also the same!
Song Shuyun didn't want to expose the existence of wood spirits, nor did she want to expose her golden fingers, nor did she want to be a pawn in other people's games or a butcher's knife to mutilate the enemy.

It took her ten days to collect two bottles of insect liquid, but neither bottle was too full, and she didn't collect any more after that, but stepped on some potions with Jenkins, and killed some nearby Warcraft, after the last time limit, Jenkins and Jenkins returned to Cole City in a state of embarrassment.

She was still well-dressed, but all kinds of scars inevitably appeared on her exposed skin.

Jenkins is not as particular about her. Not only the injuries on his body are clearly visible, but even his clothes are a little torn.

His dressing style like performance art did not attract the attention of others, because most of the people who took this magic crystal car were like this, but Song Shuyun's style attracted more attention.

The two arrived at the mercenary guild before dark.

After arriving, Song Shuyun went straight to the place where the task was handed in. There were many people similar to Song Shuyun, waiting in line in a hurry.

Song Shuyun sat on Jenkins' shoulders and looked down at the people in front of her. If anyone tried to tangle with the staff, she and Jenkins would stare at that person with sinister eyes until the person was taken away. Stare at the hair.

Song Shuyun's approach did not arouse public outrage. After all, most people were anxious. At this time, each other's positions were the same!
After queuing for a while, we finally arrived at Song Shuyun.

She first took out her badge and two envelopes and put them on the bar, then took out the flame wolf's magic crystal core and two bottles of insect liquid.

She had not handed in the tasks that she had taken along with the mandatory tasks before. Both tasks were relatively time-consuming. She was already considered excellent if she completed them together. If she spent more money, it was hard to say whether it would be enough or not, and it would definitely attract others' attention.

The staff on the second floor who is in charge of handing in the task is a middle-aged man with a single eye, wearing a decent suit. He has carefully looked at the task item handed in by Song Shuyun. He is sure that it is the real task item, and the satisfaction in his eyes flashed. However, he still raised his head and said to Song Shuyun.

"The capacity of these two bottles of worm liquid is insufficient, and the money needs to be deducted."

Song Shuyun was a little dissatisfied.

"But the worm liquid I collected is of high quality and very pure."

The staff is still not satisfied.

"But it's true that the quantity is not enough!"

Seeing that he was so stubborn, Song Shuyun was a little annoyed, and took out the small half bottle of muddy insect liquid that Jenkins had collected before from the space.

"Okay then! I'm pouring some into it, and I can still make up two full bottles..."

Seeing what she took out, the man's face turned green.

The staff here often exploit these mercenaries, which has become a rule, and most people also acquiesce in this kind of operation.

Song Shuyun had experienced it before, so she naturally understood the reason, and she didn't really care.

But this insect liquid is different. The value of this thing is not low in the first place, and what she brought back is very pure. As long as this person gives her the gold coins required by the task, and then changes it to a lower purity one to complete the task, he can make a small profit from it. A sum of money, but he was not satisfied yet. He wanted to squeeze more out of Song Shuyun, which was a bit too much!
Seeing that Jenkins stretched out his long arms, he was about to take back the two crystal bottles in the bar.

The man had no choice but to say impatiently.

"Alright, alright!"

He took out some gold and silver coins from the space ring and threw them on the bar. He quickly reported a number and asked Song Shuyun to calculate whether it was correct!
After confirming that it was correct, Song Shuyun put away the money and left the mercenary guild arrogantly.
