Chapter 77: Black Forest Viscount
【Invitation to the Little Garden】! Those who hold this invitation can enter the special Ju Qing Di Tu "Giant's Little Garden" to adventure and obtain a special identity!
Note 1: The map entrance is the back garden of Heisen Castle in the Gaodi Kingdom!
Note 2: This quest is limited to Travelers below the Third Tier to complete alone!
W-w-wait, it's another invitation!
Is this invitation really that easy to get? No, that's not right!
Judging from the two previous instances, this invitation is not easy to obtain.
Or rather, getting this invitation requires a bit of luck!
"Thank you very much for your gift, Aila!"
Regardless, this was an unexpected surprise, and Xie Yaoyao thanked Aila happily.
As expected, the Baron does not value the cost of a gift; a single flower made him this happy!
"It is wonderful that you like it! My lord, would Aila have the honor of knowing your name?"
"Linghu Chong!"
Xie Yaoyao smiled as he spoke his alias!
At this point, he no longer knew why he had blurted out this name; perhaps it was just habit.
"Eh?! What a peculiar name!"
"Our Druid names are all quite peculiar!"
Xie Yaoyao continued to lie with a smile on his face.
"Druid?"
"Yes, Druid!"
As he spoke, Xie Yaoyao transformed into a sharp-tailed swift right in front of Aila, circled her twice, and then soared into the sky, disappearing into the clouds!
"Ling... hu... Chong! What a truly peculiar Baron!"
A brilliant smile bloomed on Aila's face, and the entire garden seemed to brighten up!
Xie Yaoyao did not leave; he made a turn in the air and flew into the Viscount's hall, landing on top of a brand-new suit of Knight armor, and began to preen his feathers in a leisurely manner.
In the hall, Xie Yaoyao saw the master of Heisen Territory for the first time, the Viscount, Lude Shitate.
【Black Forest Viscount—Lord】, Green Entry! A hardline lord who rules Heisen Territory with an iron fist; the powerful cavalry regiment under your command is proof of your glory, and no one can underestimate your achievements!
【Xuerou Jishizhe】, Red Bloodline Entry! Obtain a powerful and eerie Bloodline by performing sacrifices to an unknown existence! When you discard the cowardice of humanity, you are naturally powerful!
【Bloody Knight】, Green Profession Entry! A Knight who has forsaken the Holy Light, believing in the creed that everything can be obtained through blade and spear! Don your armor and mount your steed; do not ask who the enemy is, only ask where they are! And I shall take everything from you, including your life!
【Lueduo】, Green Entry! Have no mercy for defeated enemies; take everything they have left, including their lives! Killing an enemy allows you to steal a small amount of vitality!
Seeing the glaring 【Xuerou Jishizhe】 above the Viscount's head, Xie Yaoyao's scalp went numb.
This Tonghua World must be sick, he thought, then remembered the eerie Gold Coin on his own person.
Why is it this filthy stuff again!
Xie Yaoyao had the urge to turn around and leave.
But seeing Lars standing opposite the Black Forest Viscount, Xie Yaoyao reluctantly stayed.
He wanted to see what this guy from the Illuminati was up to!
It must be said that Lars was having a bad day today.
He had inexplicably gotten into a fight with people from the World Association on the road, and by relying on his powerful profession traits to counter the two leaders of the World Association, "Liu" and "Gui," he had managed to drive them away.
But when Lars returned to the spot, he found that all his team members had died once, and the most unfortunate thing was that his own younger brother had also inexplicably lost his last life there.
Lars felt that his own arrogance had killed his brother, and he swore to avenge him; this must be a conspiracy by the World Association, and that guy called "Liu" didn't look like a good person at all—it must have been his idea!
However, no matter how angry he was, the established plan had to be completed, otherwise his brother would have died in vain. He really couldn't figure out why the people from the World Association would come to Heisen Town to develop; could it be that they, like them, had their eyes on the "Heisen Cuirassiers" and "Heisen Hunters" professions?
Therefore, Lars still suppressed his grief and came to Heisenbao; today, he had to secure one of the two troop types.
"Respected Viscount, fifty slaves per month, no more! You know, recently the surrounding kingdoms have sensed something is wrong, and we can only go further away to hunt."
Hearing this, Viscount Shitate couldn't help but sneer.
He really didn't like this group of Travelers; they were selfish and didn't follow any rules, but he had to admit that using them to get things done was truly comfortable.
The Forestry Company solved a lot of trouble for him and brought him considerable profit.
It was just unexpected that these guys would dare to set their sights on his own foundation; with such a large appetite, they couldn't blame him for asking for a high price.
It was just right to store up more slaves for a rainy day; the great Silent Roarer needed more, more, and more sacrifices!
A flash of red light flickered in his eyes as Viscount Shitate gathered his wide sleeves and said.
"That is a problem you should solve. Eighty slaves per month; the greatest hunter regiment under my command is worth that price! If you think it's too expensive, you don't have to train hunters. Perhaps you can hire my soldiers directly; they can always complete various tasks excellently!"
Lars was furious; this was just being unreasonable, wasn't it?!
Why would I want to hire your native soldiers? We don't need to fight wars.
We need to train to obtain Entries; as long as we secure these two stable profession Entry bases, I will definitely be able to be promoted to the position of Deacon.
"One hundred and twenty slaves; we will provide you with one hundred and twenty slaves per month, but we want training opportunities for both the Cuirassiers and Hunters, twenty slots per month."
As long as it could be confirmed, even if his own people didn't use them, he could earn the slots back by selling them, Lars thought triumphantly.
While the two were haggling, Xie Yaoyao had already run off, unable to stand the bickering, so he did not see what happened next.
"Twenty slots is too many. The Heisen Cuirassiers and Heisen Hunters are the signature of our Heisen Territory. Since you are unwilling to hire them directly, then I will give you at most ten training slots."
Ten slots were acceptable; in fact, Lars was just asking for a high price and waiting for a counter-offer.
"Ten slots is fine, but I can only guarantee eighty slaves per month. If the Viscount can agree to that, then it's a deal; this is our bottom line."
Viscount Shitate was silent for a long while before agreeing.
"Fine, it's a deal! But I'll say this in advance: if the quantity is not met, don't blame me for canceling your training qualifications."
Lars laughed heartily; there were some things that Travelers could do much more conveniently than the local natives.
"It's a deal!"
"It's a deal! To celebrate the success of our cooperation, I will hold a celebration in the castle's garden, and I hope Mr. Lars will be able to attend!"
As he spoke, Viscount Stadt signaled for the butler to hand Lars an invitation.
The moment Lars received the invitation, he was stunned.
An invitation to the Little Garden! Limited to Third-tier Travelers! So that's it; the guys from the Heaven Society aren't planning to march into Heisen Territory, but are here for this Advanced Mission?
Hehe, another merit to my name!
It looks like there will definitely be a spot for me among the Twelve Deacons!
