Genius Demon Empress

Since you are a member of the Backfire Mercenary Group, why did you form a mercenary unit with me? The next day, Zach said goodbye to his sister at home, and stood with Yue Jinghua at the entrance of Sabah town. Standing shoulder to shoulder with Yue Jinghua, smelling the dry and desolate knife wind in the Gobi, Zach came to his senses.

In the tavern in the town, the mercenaries represented by Johnny have already made a bet on a mission of this rookie squad.

Nearly 90% bet they would not be able to complete the task.

Even so, Yue Jinghua still went her own way, and after letting go of her rhetoric in the tavern, Yue Jinghua went to the town's mercenary union. She took out a letter of recommendation from the deputy head of the Backfire Mercenary Corps. A letter of recommendation from the famous Backfire Mercenary Corps in the Eastern Continent, that is not an unusual thing.

Under the influence of that recommendation letter, Yue Jinghua took a symbolic physical fitness test and family background investigation, obtained the mercenary qualification, and was given a mercenary manual. She wore a one-star mercenary star on her hand. emblem.

I need to become a two-star mercenary within a month, step by step to take over the mercenary missions of the stone steps. It will take at least ten missions, that is, about half a year to be promoted successfully, Yue Jinghua has already studied the mercenary missions. Soldiers Manual.

The Mercenary Union is one of the longest-established and most comprehensive organizations on the mainland. The mercenary system it set up is almost perfect today.

According to the stipulations in the mercenary manual, the mercenary levels are divided into six levels: one-star, two-star, three-star, four-star, five-star, and star-soul. The corresponding mercenary missions are divided into five levels: stone, shell, bead, drill, and unparalleled. Each level is divided into blue, yellow, and red according to the difficulty.

Corresponding mercenaries receive corresponding mercenary tasks. The mercenary union also provides cross-level quests, but requires two or more mercenaries of the same level to form a small team to accept cross-level mercenary tasks.

For a step mission, according to the difficulty level, blue shells, yellow shells, and red shells will deduct five, six, and seven stone step tasks respectively. The normal period to complete a mercenary mission is about five to ten days. Based on this calculation, Yue Jinghua had to form a team with others, so that he would have the opportunity to complete two mercenary missions within a month. Successfully advanced.

It's almost impossible to become a two-star mercenary in one month. There hasn't been such a character in Sabah Town for many years. Zach is well aware of the difficulty of advancing a mercenary, not to mention that Yue Jinghua is a mercenary who has never been a mercenary. A novice with experience.

Rob Kerry, the undefeated mercenary king, once said, 'What a capable man can't, this is a mercenary', nothing is impossible in the world, this is also the title of the mercenary manual.

Yue Jinghua looked around, and in front of the small town of Sabah was an open tropical desert.

The Gobi seems to be barren of grass, but it has bred a lot of unique resources. There are Gobi snow lotus, Gastrodia elata, and various mysterious worms that are very valuable.

Most of the mercenary missions in the small town of Sabah are related to this piece of Tak Gobi. Every year, a large number of drug dealers and business travel teams pass through this piece of Gobi, selling the products in the Gobi to every corner of the Eastern Continent.

The task of Yue Jinghua and Zac's mercenary team is to collect the stingers of a hundred Gobi poisonous bee-tailed scorpions.

The Gobi Venomous Bee Scorpion is a reptile-like mysterious beast with a small size. The most aggressive thing is its two pincers that can crush rocks and a poisonous stinger on its tail.

Anyone who is a skilled mercenary has dealt with this kind of scorpion. This task was issued by the Coconut Shell Tavern entrusted by a pharmacist living in the town. The difficulty of the task itself is not high, and it should be the task of the red stone steps.

It's just that the time required by the drug dealer is very short, and one hundred poisonous bee scorpions must be collected within two days, so the mercenary mission level was raised to the shell level.

Although there are still doubts about Yue Jinghua's behavior, Zach still enters Tak Gobi with her.

Zach spontaneously walked to the front of Yue Jinghua, which also made Yue Jinghua notice that Zac was carrying a big cloth bag.

Zach is taller than the people of the Shang Dynasty, but because his family is not rich, his figure looks thinner. He prepared a pocket with gloves for catching scorpions, a wooden stick for pulling stones, and a lamp for irradiation. of lamps.

Indigenous children of Zac's generation have dealt with poisonous insects in the Gobi since childhood, and are familiar with the various habits of poisonous insects.

On the other hand, Yue Jinghua is like a traveler who came to enjoy the scenery of the Gobi without bringing anything.

Seeing that Yue Jinghua didn't even have the basic protective equipment ready, Zach suddenly felt a headache.

Fortunately, Zach is also a temperament that comes and goes. He also knows that it is useless to talk too much, and only waits to enter the Gobi before making plans.

The Tak Gobi has a large area, and few people dare to go deep into the belly of the next door. The scenery along the way is surprisingly similar. When Zach walks, every 500 meters, he will leave marks on the stones. These are the past Zack’s father I mentioned it to Zach, this time, he finally had a chance to practice.

Before nightfall, the two had already walked a few miles. After passing through a salix forest, the ground turned into a mixed area of ​​sand and rocks.

The poisonous bee and scorpion likes shade. They like to inhabit stones, shady places and graves. They only come out at night. We will stop here tonight. After entering the Gobi, Zach has consciously acted as the leader of the team character of.

Thin evening clouds floated to the west, and the Tak Gobi at night was much more dangerous than during the day, and even veteran mercenaries did not dare to walk through the Gobi at night.

I'm here to watch the night, I'll call you later, Zach said awkwardly as he grew up and hadn't spent the night alone with a woman.

Yue Jinghua was noncommittal, and took the luggage.

The night in the Gobi is so cold that people can freeze to death. There is not much vegetation around, and there are fewer trees that can be used to ignite the fire. The willow that Zach chopped down did not ignite after being lit several times.

Yue Jinghua walked to the side of the Chai River, but she didn't see her take out the flint, chih, a few strands of flame jumped out of the firewood.

The color of the fire is very special, the cyan flame core is like a lotus flower in bud.

With kindling, the night was much better.

In the dead of night, Zach was vigilant about his surroundings. Around midnight, he picked up the set of tools for catching scorpions, looked back at Yue Jinghua who was sleeping comfortably by the campfire, and sighed slightly.

When Zac turned around, Yue Jinghua, who seemed to be asleep, opened his eyes.

Look at the rookie you're looking for, I bet he can't even catch a poisonous bee scorpion, Qingpu stood by the fire, Yue Jinghua curled his lips: Who said we came to catch-- Scorpion's.

After all, she stood up and walked in the opposite direction from Zach's catching the scorpion.

The poisonous bee scorpion is a variant of the third-order profound beast. Its reaction is very quick. When it encounters a powerful enemy, it will shoot out a poisonous sting from its tail. It is said that the needle behind the hornet's tail is enough to make a huge tortoise fall to the ground.

Zach didn't expect that the poisonous bee scorpion would be so difficult to catch. One night, there was already a faint light in the sky, and he only caught one poisonous bee scorpion.

If this continues, the mission will fail, Zach thought pessimistically.

At dawn, Zach returned to the campfire with an empty bag in frustration.

The fire was still burning, and the novice mercenary Yue Jinghua sat by the campfire, with a plucked Gobi Eagle beside him.

You are still in the mood to eat. I have been busy all night and only caught one poisonous bee scorpion. Do you plan to complete this task? Zach couldn't help complaining.

Here you are, Yue Jinghua shrugged, and threw the Gobi Eagle to Zach, I don't understand, why do you have to catch the poisonous bee and scorpion?

Where do you get the stinger, do you really think the stinger will come to your door? Zach became more and more angry, and took over the dark blue eagle, I told you before entering the Gobi Well, all the mysterious beasts in the Gobi are poisonous, and the fourth-order mysterious beasts, the eagles, are no exception, and they cannot be eaten.

Zac stopped talking, how did she catch the sand eagle of the fourth-order mysterious beast. He looked down and saw that the sand eagle's feathers had been completely stripped off, and its surface was covered with little black spots. Looking carefully, those little black spots were all stings, the stings of the venomous bee and scorpion.

A whole Sand Eagle has all kinds of poisonous thorns distributed on its body surface.

What we want is the sting of the poisonous scorpion, why bother to catch the poisonous bee scorpion. When encountering the attack of the natural enemy sand eagle, the poisonous bee scorpion will shoot out the poisonous needles at the tail. Clean it up and see how many there are. Stinger, if it's not enough, I'll find a few sand eagles as bait tonight, Yue Jinghua said lightly.

As if struck by lightning, Zach said after a while, You have already planned to use this method to get scorpion stings?

Don't do useless work, this is my personal mercenary rule. Yue Jinghua shrugged.

At that moment, Zach only felt that there was a roar in his mind, and the mercenary's hard work and willingness to endure hardships established by his father for him all collapsed at that time.

He looked at the Sand Eagle in his hand, but didn't speak for a long time.

Suddenly something flashed through his mind.

Mother's kind face and soft voice are still in my ears.

Zach, you must remember. You can't judge a person by appearance and first impression. Some people, you think he (she) is a toad, but in fact, he is a beautiful swan. If you meet later Such a person must cherish such an opportunity and follow him (her) well.

Yue Jinghua is undoubtedly that kind of person.

The female mercenary next to him was only a little older than his sister. Only when he stood beside her did Zach realize that this foreigner who had just become a one-star mercenary was very beautiful.

Her beauty doesn't care about her eyes that are brighter than the morning stars and her straight nose, but a kind of natural beauty that is stolen from her bones.

This beauty comes from self-confidence.

The next day, at dawn, Yue Jinghua and Zach left Tak Gobi. Only this time, Zac followed Yue Jinghua from the beginning to the end, like a most devout follower, following step by step.
