When we returned to the inn, it was already half-past six.
Although everyone was tired after a busy day, everyone was in good spirits.
"To celebrate Constellation's participation and today's bountiful harvest!”"Let's have a big meal today. Eat whatever you want!" Long Xin said magnanimously. Don't be so polite."
"Since Sect Master is treating us, we won't be respectful.”"Waiter, give me a plate of each of your signature dishes!”
"Give me four more pots of high-quality Jade Carving Lady!”Long Zhan was similarly unwilling to let go of this rare opportunity.
The inn's signature dishes were quite famous. There were a total of twelve large plates. Moreover, the color, fragrance, and taste were all complete. Almost all the tables were filled! It wasn't inferior to the Chinese dishes in my previous life. The four of us ate until our appetites were wide open. After eating and drinking to our hearts 'content, our faces turned red and our stomachs bloated, unable to move at all.
"En ha!" Long Zhan burped contentedly,"I'm so full!"”
Haha! Long Xin also rubbed her round belly in an extremely unladylike manner, then leaned back in her chair and let out a long sigh of satisfaction.
Since we had nothing to do, we just sat there and chatted about the future development of the sect and our martial arts experiences. Since Long Zhan and I were both warriors, naturally, we had more topics to talk about.
"Then, after comprehending the offensive sword technique! What plans do you have?" Long Zhan asked.
"I think he should be at Meng Zhong's Centipede Cave!”Actually, I had planned this a long time ago. It's just that now that I've joined the Wandering Dragon Gang, I have no choice but to spend some effort on the development of the gang.
" Is he cultivating the Assassination Swordsmanship?!"
"Yes!" I nodded slightly.
"That's good!" Long Qi calculated and said," According to our current progress, it will take us about four days to complete the mission. I believe that by the time the mission is completed, you should be able to comprehend the offensive sword technique! When the time comes, let's go to Mengzhong together!”
"Ah! Are you going to Mengzhong too?" I was a little shocked!
"What's so strange about that!" Long Xin smiled and explained," Although we've established a guild, it's only for the convenience of the left mission. The main thing is to focus on skill training!" If it wasn't for the fact that we wanted to become a Level 2 Gang so that it would be easier for us to cultivate in the future, we would have gone to Mengchong a long time ago.”
"Haha! However, it was still alright! Otherwise, I wouldn't have met you!" Long Qi sighed with emotion.
"I see!" I finally understood why they had appeared in the Skeleton Cave."So you guys went to Centipede Cave to cultivate higher-level skills?”
"Yes, I am!" " I've already mastered my offensive and killing sword art for half a year," Long Zhan said." It's time to go to Centipede Cave and take a step closer to cultivate!"”
It seems that I won't be lonely in the future, I thought to myself. With them around, I can save a lot of trouble.
"You guys chat first. I'm going to take a shower!”Long Xin stood up with great difficulty. It seemed that she had not fully digested the food.
After that, Long Qi, Long Zhan, and I chatted casually. He also learned that the three of them were noble children of the Kitagawa Ryuu family of the White Sun Gate. They had only gone out to cultivate in order to complete their studies. At the same time, they had increased their knowledge and accumulated experience in managing family affairs in the future. This was a tradition unique to the nobles of the Fama Continent. Every noble child had to go out and train for a period of time before they were qualified to inherit the family business or become the pillar of the family.，During this period of time, all the expenses and expenses had to be earned through their own efforts. Not only that, every noble child who went out to train had to achieve a certain level of achievement. For example, Long Zhan's goal was to advance to an advanced warrior, and the prerequisite for this was to cultivate the assassination sword technique and obtain the level 28 Warrior Honor Badge issued by the Ranger Guild. Not only that, but he had to earn 10,000 gold coins before he could pass the test. As for Long Xin and Long Qi, their standards should be about the same. This tradition had been passed down for 5,000 years. It had to be said that these tests of the nobles were very reasonable. These noble children would encounter all kinds of unimaginable difficulties in the process of training, which fully tested the determination and perseverance of these noble children.
Those with poor quality were easily eliminated. And those who passed through cultivation were naturally the elites of the elites. If these descendants who had passed the cultivation process inherited the family business or became important pillars of the family, they would definitely be able to continue to maintain the prosperity of the family. On the Fa Ma Continent, there were countless ancient aristocratic families. Some families had even been passed down for 3,000 years and were still able to prosper. To a large extent, they benefited from this ancient tradition.
After a short rest, we went upstairs together. To my surprise, their room was only separated from mine by a corridor.
After returning to my room, I threw myself on the bed and completely relaxed my body. My mind kept replaying the scene of fighting the Skeleton General in the Skeleton Cave during the day, trying to find any areas that were worth improving. However, after thinking for a while, he could not come to a conclusion. Perhaps the Skeleton Generals were too weak, which was why they hadn't revealed the weaknesses of my blade technique when I fought them. However, I was certain that as the monsters I faced in the future continued to grow stronger, the weaknesses of my blade technique would also continue to be exposed. However, I couldn't imagine all of this out of thin air, so I could only think of a solution when the problem arose. As the saying goes, true knowledge comes from practice.
I temporarily put aside the problem of the saber technique. It had been six days since I came out. I decided to write a letter home. At least this way, my mother and Kaede wouldn't have to worry about me anymore. I did what I thought of. After an hour, I finally finished writing the letter.
The next morning, I ran to the post office in the town and mailed the letter. When I returned to the inn, I was just in time to see Long Xin and the other two having breakfast. Naturally, I sat with them.
"Wait a moment, go to the bulletin board and hand in the Skull's Eyes that you collected yesterday.”Long Xin chewed on her bread while thinking,""Also, Xingchen, let's go together later and get the ranger certification.”
"Don't forget! We also need to hire a few people to help us collect the Skull's Eyes.”Long Qi explained and added,"Better hire seven people. I don't want to do what happened yesterday.”
"Haha!" Long Zhan smiled too, putting on an appearance of lingering fear.
"Of course!" Long Xin continued," However, you and Zhan Xian should go to the Skeleton Cave and collect the Skull's Eyes that we didn't have time to collect yesterday. At the very least, don't let others take advantage of it. You have to know that we're not the only ones who accepted this mission."”
"En! "Long Qi and Long Zhan nodded at the same time.
After eating breakfast, Long Qi and Long Zhan immediately set off for the Skeleton Cave, while I followed Long Xin to the bulletin board to submit the quest. At the same time, I also took the chance to obtain my Ranger certification.
The bulletin board in the World of Farmer was similar to the train station in his previous life. There was only a large sign outside the open air. On it was written," Rong City, Maple Leaf Town, Ranger Guild." Behind the sign was a very large house. It was very spacious inside, about the size of half a football field. The surrounding walls were lined with a list of Ranger quests with clear levels. This reminded me of the train schedule I saw at the station in my previous life.
Although the sky was just beginning to brighten, the bulletin board was already crowded with people. Most of them were armed rangers, and most of them were wearing the same uniform and the same sect insignia to indicate their identity and the sect they belonged to. It was completely different from what he had imagined. Although there were many people at the bulletin board, it did not feel noisy. Many people surrounded the Ranger's mission list and carefully looked at it, choosing the mission that they thought was suitable. Once they chose the mission that they thought was suitable, they would take off the mission number plate on the mission list and go to the special mission reception counter to handle the mission handover procedure. The entire process was very simple and clear, and it had a modern office automaton flavor.
However, more people were sitting around the wine cabinet in the middle, drinking and chatting. It seemed that apart from issuing ranger missions, this place also ran a hotel business. It was no wonder that so many people were gathered together. Moreover, they were all extraordinary and arrogant rangers. If they were not arranged with some entertainment programs to pass the time, it was hard to imagine what kind of scene it would be. Drinking and chatting were undoubtedly the most effective entertainment programs.
"Mission number 0453." Long Xin brought me to the mission submission counter near the western wall and took out a palm-sized square plate from her waist pouch. This was the mission number plate of Wandering Dragon Gang. Long Xin handed the token to the Ranger Guild's manager at the counter.
"Yes, mission number 0453 collected 150,000 Skull's Eyes in half a month!”The manager in front of the counter was a tall man in his thirties. After borrowing the sign, he quickly found our mission list.
"I'll pay 30,000 pills today!" Long Xin took out fifteen small bags from her backpack. He placed it in front of the counter.
"Wandering Dragon Gang!" The administrator looked at Long Xin and me carefully with a surprised expression."I remember that the Wandering Dragon Gang has only been established for three days. I didn't expect you to have already collected 30,000 Skull's Eyes.”
"Hehe, of course!" Long Xin's face was slightly red, but she could not hide her proud expression.
"Alright, the mission progress has been recorded.”The administrator handed the token back to Long Xin and said,""I look forward to your performance. Good luck!”
"Thank you!" It seemed that Long Xin was still a little girl who couldn't help but reveal a happy and smug expression after being praised. Of course, he hadn't forgotten about the main matter and pulled me to another room! On the horizontal board above the door were written the words " Ranger Qualification Training Ground " in large golden letters. There were also a dozen or so youths of about sixteen or seventeen years old lined up in front of the door. It seemed like they were here to take the Ranger qualification test, just like me. I carefully calculated that there were a total of 15 people. From the weapons they carried, I could tell that there were 10 Warriors, 3 Mages, and 2 Daoists. Of course, while I was observing them, they were also curiously sizing me up. I knew that it must have been my strange blade that attracted their attention. After all, the weapons on the Fama Continent were generally universal standard equipment, and there was a clear level mark. The warriors who came for the trial were all carrying the same Eight Desolates Blade, the mages were holding the three-pronged Sea Soul, and the priests were wearing small half-moon scimitars. My blade was not Eight Desolates, and they could not tell what kind of weapon it was. It was like an elephant blade and a sword. It was strange, so it was no wonder that it attracted their attention. However, after sizing them up for a while, they were busy tidying up their minds. After all, on the continent, although standard weapons were common weapons that most people held, it did not mean that no one used their own unique weapons. It was just that there were fewer of them.
Soon, it was my turn to practice.
This was a very strange large room. It was as big as a basketball court and was squarish. The large room was filled with scarecrows. This was beyond my expectations. I didn't expect that the hand I was using to practice would be a scarecrow. I roughly estimated that there were more than 50 scarecrows in this room, which made me feel at ease.
I immediately used my movement technique and charged into the middle of the scarecrows. With a few slashes, I chopped off the scarecrows 'heads. The current me had long since surpassed my past strength. He didn't need to say anything to deal with the dozens of scarecrows.
And his son. After I cut down the last scarecrow, the door of the room opened. When I walked out of the room, there was already an administrator waiting there. He handed me a card the size of a business card." Number 57342 has passed the Ranger qualification test. Congratulations, young man! From today onwards, you are a qualified Ranger. I hope you will work hard in the future.”
"Thank you!" I respectfully took the token and carefully put it away.
It was already 6:30 PM when we walked out of the door. Long Xin brought me to seven Dongbao. The so-called Dongbao were like modern day temporary workers. The name was strange enough. The seven Dongbao were all around 40 years old, with two men and five women. Originally, when the seven of them heard that they were going to the Skull Cave, they were so scared that they immediately turned around and left. However, they were stopped by Long Xin, who spent a lot of effort to persuade them to follow us up the mountain. Long Xin even raised the price to two silver coins per person per day, which was four times the normal Dongbao commission. Long Xin also repeatedly assured them that they would only collect the skull eyeballs and that there would be no danger.
When they reached the skull cave, it was already 7:30 pm. Long Qi and Long Zhan had already picked up a big bag of skull eyeballs each.
"Hu! You're finally here!" Long Qi looked relieved.
The seven Dongbao soldiers behind him were shocked when they saw the skeletons on the ground. As locals, they knew how terrifying the Skeleton Warriors were. But now, they saw the Skeleton Generals lying on the ground in groups, and they all had the same characteristic, which was that they were beheaded with a single slash.
"Heavens! What is going on? Were the heads of these Skeleton Warriors chopped off by you?”One of the seven Eastern Protectors, who was obviously the leader, asked in surprise.
"Haha!" Long Qi only smiled and didn't explain,""Wouldn't it be more convenient for you to collect them this way?”Long Qi said as he picked up a skull. He stuck his hands into it, hooked it, and dug out two sparkling green pearls. The process was smooth and skillful.
"En! Hah! Yes!" The leader, Dong Bao, smiled apologetically. Ordinary civilians were still inexplicably afraid of Rangers. He didn't dare to ask any more questions.
