C11 Group Task
Within the Ranger's Guild's secret room.
"President, we have discovered a new ranger called Qin Yuan."
"Great potential."
"In just over ten days, he advanced from a beginner to a three-star warrior, almost reaching the 4-star level."
"He even completed nine extraordinary Steel missions, and even killed two peak Class 1 Magical Beasts."
"Oh?" A beautiful young girl, who was not more than twenty years old, lazily leaned on the stone chair. After hearing the report, she did not open her eyes as she replied lazily, "You guys can see it, but it shouldn't be bad. "Continue watching. If necessary, I'll give you a hand …"
"Yes sir!" "Yes," he replied at the same time.
After the two emissaries left the secret room, the pretty girl yawned and said to herself listlessly, "I'm so sleepy …" I hope that this time, I can cultivate a Bronze-rank Ranger. Otherwise, I won't be able to keep my position … "
As she spoke, the beautiful girl's voice became softer and softer. She had actually fallen asleep.
After the left and right senior officials left the secret chamber, they opened the guild gate and removed the "temporarily absent" notice board. Just as they were about to return to the house, they caught a glimpse of Qin Yuan staring thoughtfully at the mission details on the bounty board in Ranger Square.
After nine missions, Qin Yuan's aura had reached the peak of a three star warrior, just a step away from that of a four star warrior. At the same time, the Blue Jade Fist that his father had given him did not fall. It was nearing the small success stage.
Therefore, Qin Yuan felt that the Ranger Quest in the past could no longer satisfy him. It was time to pick something more difficult.
Arriving at the Ranger Square in the morning, Qin Yuan finally chose a more suitable mission after a long time.
"Black Tower Toll: form a party to escort the herb collecting team into the dangerous Rotten Bone Swamp." Requirements: At least 3-star warrior level, experienced in fighting with magical beasts is preferred, a total of ten people will be recruited until the end. Reward: 200 gold coins and 25 points. "If you are interested, please meet with us at the southeast pavilion of Ranger Square on the seventh day of this month."
Qin Yuan had completed the previous nine missions on his own. He had never thought of forming a team with anyone else. The reason for choosing this mission was that there were many dangers lurking around the Corrupt Bone Swamp, so the pressure for battle was definitely not low. The second reason was that he wanted to observe the other martial artists' methods of combat at close range.
"Seventh day?" Isn't that today? " Qin Yuan suddenly remembered today's date and hurriedly ran towards the southeast small pavilion.
Although the danger level of the Rotten Bone Swamp was extremely high, the attraction of two hundred gold coins was enough for many people to risk their lives to accept this mission.
In the southeastern pavilion, a thin middle-aged man wearing a plain white robe shook his head, "No way, no way. You're not even a three-star warrior yet, and you'll have to distract the other rangers to protect you!"
A vulgar looking man stood in front of the thin, middle-aged man and said disapprovingly: "Haven't you guys recruited enough people? I'm not far from becoming a 3-star warrior, so please accept me! "
"Do you need more people?"
The thin middle-aged man and the man turned their heads at the same time, only to see an extraordinarily handsome young man walk through the crowd. He cupped his hands, saluted, and displayed his Ranger's Medallion.
This youth was naturally Qin Yuan.
Just as the thin middle-aged man was about to speak, the man shouted loudly, "The recruitment is complete!"
"May I ask if this ranger has reached the 3-star warrior rank?" The thin man glanced at the man unhappily and said to Qin Yuan.
"How could this brat be a three star warrior? Let's not make trouble here!" As the man said this, he wanted to chase Qin Yuan away, but realized that he could not move Qin Yuan at all.
In the Chushi City, other than the Qin family and the Qi family, most of the warriors at Qin Yuan's age had reached the level of a 2-star warrior due to lack of pills and cultivation techniques, let alone a 3-star warrior.
And right now, Qin Yuan was only wearing ordinary martial arts clothes. He looked just like a martial artist from an ordinary family. When the man saw Qin Yuan do the proper etiquette, he said that Qin Yuan shamelessly came to obtain the mission for two hundred gold coins just like him.
Although Qin Yuan didn't know what was going on, he was slightly displeased at being so rudely chased away by the man and immediately revealed his aura.
"3-star warrior?" However, when he thought of the two hundred gold coins, the greed in his heart overshadowed his reason. He shouted, "Although I have yet to reach the Three Star Warrior Realm, but I have fought with a Demon Beast no less than ten times over the years. My fighting experience is far from that of a rookie! Mr. Zhao, let me defeat this rookie for you to see! "
After speaking, that man's aura erupted as he roared and dashed towards Qin Yuan.
"So noisy!" At this time, Qin Yuan had already retracted his aura and coldly said two words. He didn't even move his feet and directly slapped over with his palm, sending the approaching man flying with a slap.
The man spun a few times in the air, landed a few meters away and rolled on the ground. He spat out a mouthful of blood, struggled, and ran into the crowd.
No one noticed how the man had slipped away. Everyone's eyes were focused on Qin Yuan.
It was normal for a three star warrior to be able to defeat a two star pinnacle warrior, but it was quite rare for a warrior like Qin Yuan, who hadn't even used his Astral Qi yet, to be able to send him flying with a casual slap.
The thin, middle-aged man surnamed Zhao was not a warrior, but he knew that Qin Yuan was definitely one of the best Three Star Warriors. He took a step forward and said, "The team is just short of one person, if you don't mind, I, Zhao He Chuan, represent the herb collecting team, welcome you to join us." May I have your name please? "
"Mr. Zhao is too serious. I am Qin Yuan. "
Zhao Heichuan said, "Then I ask Young Hero Qin Yuan to go back and prepare well. We will gather at the North Gate at dawn tomorrow."
After bidding farewell to Zhao Heichuan, Qin Yuan returned to the Alchemy Pavilion and tried to break through to the 4-star warrior level again. However, he discovered that there was always a faint resistance that restricted his Supreme Force, which resulted in him failing to break through at the last moment.
Inadvertently, the sky had already begun to brighten. Qin Yuan could only sigh and give up trying to break through to the four-star warrior level. Washing his face and eating the breakfast that Xiao Cui had prepared, he left for the north city gate.
When Qin Yuan arrived, there were only three herb collecting team members at the north gate, including Zhao Hechuan. The other rangers had not arrived yet.
"Young Hero Qin Yuan is really early." Zhao Hechuan stepped forward and greeted him.
Qin Yuan looked at the color of the sky and said, "I didn't expect you guys to arrive so early, Mister Zhao."
As time passed, the rangers came to the north gate one after another. A quarter of an hour later, only one person was left.
"Hmph, we agreed to gather at 5 AM, why aren't there any more people? Such arrogance! "
"As a ranger, he is too unpunctual."
On the contrary, Zhao Heichuan was extremely calm, and comforted a few anxious rangers, "In order to ensure the safety of this trip, please do not be impatient. We will wait for a while, perhaps the ranger will be delayed."
Just then, a voice came from behind them, "I'm here! To leave so early, you must be tired to death! Mr. Zhao, you too. So what if we leave later? "
When Qin Yuan heard this voice, he felt that it was somewhat familiar. Turning his head to look, he spoke in unison with that person, "It's you?"
He saw that the person was about Qin Yuan's age and wore a martial arts suit decorated with gold and jade stone. The arrogance on his face didn't look like a travelling ranger who wanted to escort the herb collecting team, but more like a young master who wanted to travel.
However, when the few Rangers who were complaining saw that person, their faces all changed. They didn't say anything more, and some even smiled at that person to curry favor with him.
"Hey, isn't this my Qin family's patriarch's precious son, Qin Yuan?" That person said in a strange tone, "I heard that you recently went through some dog shit luck to become a fighter. I wonder how you managed to sneak into this team with that little cultivation of yours."
Qin Yuan replied expressionlessly, "No need for Brother Qin Zhuo to worry."
Qin Zhuo, however, did not give up. He turned to Zhao Heichuan and said in a strange voice: "Mr. Zhao, why did you invite this useless little brother of yours in? In a place like the Rotten Bone Swamp, if he goes there, I'm afraid he will be a burden. "
