Monster Master: Evidence of the Way

Chapter 309 Who issues the task?

Uesugi Ai said nothing. She knew that she had been rejected by Iin tonight, so she left quietly with a gloomy face.

"Tsk, what a waste of time, what a waste of my wonderful acting skills. But it's not a big deal, I still have a backup plan..."

After Uesugi Ai left, the night passed uneventfully. Everyone took turns keeping watch, spending their first night in Uqbar.

The next day.

"Why, did anything happen last night?"

Faced with Baihu's questioning, Yiyin chose to conceal the fact that Uesugi Ai had been there.

"No, nothing. Everything was normal last night."

At this time, Yi Yin didn't know that he had inadvertently escaped a disaster. If he really gave up his candy bag, a terrible fate would be waiting for him. He would be divided into several pieces and circulate on the Tern Continent, and Baihu and Xuanwu would be even more doomed.

"The rooms in the Adventurer's Association should only be open to adventurers, and adventurers, without exception, have their own ID cards, so you have to be careful when facing people with unknown origins."

After saying this, Yi Yin talked about the conclusion he had come up with last night:

"Think about it. Given the nature of the Adventurer's Guild, they'll probably only provide us with one candy bag a day. This isn't like the base, where our expenses are all real. Luke, if we don't take on missions, we might not even be able to survive, let alone find Rokakaka."

"(Yes, I've also noticed undercurrents in Uqbar. People seem to be wary of one another, intentionally or unintentionally. We should first take some time to explore our surroundings.)"

"agree."

Baihu said, "If I don't eat something, I'll starve to death."

"Come to think of it, Senior Qinglong was able to sell some of her things and buy a Beetle, so can't you do the same?"

Xuanwu shook his head slightly.

"(Qinglong and I are different. She's very rational and knows what to do and when to do it. Even the Seven Sages Summoning Cards, which she had treasured for a long time, she was willing to part with. But I'm different. My cards are all unforgettable memories, and I absolutely cannot let them go.)"

"Ah this..."

I didn’t expect Xuanwu to be so obsessed with the Seven Saints Summons. She must be a very good card player.

"Let's go see what quests Catherine has." Baihu nodded slightly. "Any quest that a D-rank adventurer like us can take on should be easy."

.

It is certain that the higher the level of the adventurer, the higher the level of the missions he can take on and the higher the rewards he can get.

Low-level adventurers like Yiyin can only take on the most basic tasks in exchange for some money to make a living.

Catherine still smiled as brightly as the spring breeze. She knew that they would definitely come to take the mission for Luke.

Several people looked at Catherine's task assignment and fell into deep doubt.

These commissions were so varied and strange, and covered such a wide range of areas, that they had no idea where to start.

“It’s so hard to choose.”

Several people watched from beginning to end in a daze, and they didn't know which task to choose.

"Oh my, these complicated tasks are making my head hurt. Catherine, don't you have any suitable tasks to recommend?"

"To be honest, I do have a mission."

Catherine smiled and said, "This mission is a bit special. Logically, it shouldn't be completed by newly registered adventurers like you, but... well, I can tell you. This mission is very difficult, and upon completion, you will be directly promoted to C-rank adventurers. Of course, there's also a high chance you'll die. Even so, do you still want to accept it?"

The greater the risk, the greater the reward.

Besides, Yiyin and his men also have monsters, which can be said to be a dimensionality reduction attack on these unarmed civilians.

Time is precious, and it would be great if we could save it and go find Rokakaka earlier.

"How about it?"

Yiyin asked for their opinions in a low voice.

"Hmph, it's time to give these unworldly country bumpkins a little shock with the 'Four Gods Base'." Baihu had no reason to hesitate. She had participated in the world's number one martial arts tournament, so why would she be afraid of this?

"(By becoming a C-rank adventurer, our authority will be further enhanced. I think it's necessary to try it.)"

Xuanwu also expressed his opinion.

"Well, since you all said so..."

Yiyin felt that this was a good opportunity, but it was fleeting and must be seized.

"Ruicheng, we accept. Please leave this task to us."

Catherine nodded and took out an envelope.

"If you accept, please go to the second-floor room and find a certain guest. He is the one who issued the mission and has the absolute right to interpret it. You can ask him for details. If you feel that you are unable to complete the mission, you can give up - of course, you will need to pay a penalty."

Catherine said this and watched them leave.

"Towards the abyss, I hope you can come back alive, adventurers."

.

Catherine was probably someone who was genuinely kind to them, at least she had no bad intentions.

Yiyin and the other two followed the instructions on the envelope and arrived at a guest room on the second floor.

The structure of the guest rooms is roughly the same, and it seems that the Adventurer's Guild's funding is really disappointing.

"Excuse me, is there anyone in there who needs help? We just took over a mission."

After Yiyin stated their purpose, they went in... Unexpectedly, there was only a little girl inside.

Uesugi Ai.

When he saw her, Yi Yin understood about 70% of the situation. It seemed that his actions last night were correct. This person was indeed not harmless.

Of course, no matter what happened before, Uesugi Ai now has only one identity, that is, their client.

When Uesugi Ai saw Iin, she obviously recognized him, but she remained calm and did not say anything.

"Hello, you guys are the ones who took over the mission I issued, right? I didn't expect Catherine to be so capable, but it looks like you guys just became adventurers not too long ago, right?"

"Well, we were just adventurers until yesterday."

Iin answered, as if secretly mocking Uesugi Ai for asking a question even though she already knew the answer.

"Big sisters, my name is Uesugi Ai, and everyone calls me Xiao Ai."

Uesugi Ai's voice didn't sound as soft as before, and this sounded like her original self.

"Xiao Ai, my name is Hamiuer, this guy is Yiyin, and her name is Saishier - just treat her as a mute."

Xuanwu bowed slightly, indicating that he couldn't speak easily.

"Yes. Actually, I was also instructed by someone above me, but you don't need to see him. I will coordinate the entire mission for you. If you succeed, I will pay you a reward of 100,000 Luke, and Catherine will distribute the reward to you. But if you fail... you all know what will happen, right?"

Yi Yin and the others looked at each other. Catherine only said that there might be danger to life. Could it be worse?

Let’s ask Xiao Ai.
