Chapter 62: Luo De's New Commission

Dixiya has returned.

This time she returned to Xu Mi Cheng.

She walked for over two months.

The last time she left A Ru Cun, Luo De had just planted the seeds in his test field.

By the time she returned, some of the early vegetables in the field were ready to eat.

Unlike before,

This time, the Blaze Light Beast Hunters didn't return as a whole to rest; it was Dixiya who returned alone.

Speaking of this.

We have to start from the last time Luo De told her not to always take on too much.

At that time, Dixiya hadn't made up her mind yet.

But after thinking about it for a long time, she still made a decision.

That is, from now on team members can take on commissions individually; small groups of three to five are fine, individuals can take simple small commissions, including Dixiya herself taking commissions alone, no longer as before when everyone went out together to take on a big job that could feed the whole team.

Doing this will definitely bring more danger to the team members.

After all, Dixiya is the only Vision bearer in the team, and under her strong protective instinct, the Blaze Light Beast Hunters' perception of danger is somewhat biased.

However, Dixiya thinks what Luo De told her back then was right.

It's precisely because of her overprotection that the team members have become lax in their martial skills, leading to various mishaps when ambushed.

So after weighing the pros and cons, she told the team her decision and repeatedly emphasized that they must not take on commissions beyond their abilities for quick gain.

However, no matter how thorough her reminders were.

Still, someone came back injured after taking on a task too difficult for them.

The only good news.

Possibly that no one lost their life due to overestimating themselves.

The worried Dixiya stayed with the team for two full months, only leaving after making sure the members wouldn't take on tasks beyond their abilities.

On the way back to A Ru Cun.

Dixiya also ran into an acquaintance she wasn't particularly close with.

The moment this odd pair appeared.

The smugglers who had been setting up stalls in the square to do business scattered at once.

Even outside rumors say that the ironclad Grand Discipline Officer wouldn't dare cause trouble in A Ru Cun.

But who can guarantee that?

Everyone is out here to do business; no one wants to invite unnecessary trouble.

Therefore, to be safe.

These smugglers who constantly stay in A Ru Cun run at the slightest chance, never giving the Grand Discipline Officer a chance to see their faces.

And someone like Cyno, who could at any moment break the village rules, appeared.

Naturally, Kantisi had to come personally to receive him.

The moment they met, Cyno went straight to the point: "I got your letter—where is the child?"

"I'll take you there."

Kantisi said that and walked ahead to guide Cyno.

At the same time, she secretly let out a sigh of relief.

After such a delay, the thing she promised Luo De is finally done.

Soon.

The three of them arrived at Luo De's home.

Then they saw Ke Lai training himself.

Luo De hadn't devised any modern training method for Ke Lai.

It wasn't because conditions were poor or he couldn't make those modern training devices.

It was simply because he himself didn't know what modern scientific training actually involves!

In his previous life, Luo De was a typical frail college student—the kind who could barely pass a 400-meter run in a fitness test.

If he knew how to train, he wouldn't have been snatched up like a chick right after crossing over.

Luo De's current training plan for Ke Lai.

Is still the one Dixiya taught him.

Considering Luo De's physique when he started cultivation was far stronger than Ke Lai's—by who knows how much.

Therefore, he deliberately lowered the difficulty of this training method, ensuring Ke Lai could complete it easily without overtaxing his body.

Actually, if you ignore the Magic Scale Disease, Ke Lai's physique isn't weak at all—it's a bit stronger than an ordinary adult's.

But compared to Luo De, whose body has been tempered by two Visions, it looks inadequate.

This training amount is just right.

At least Luo De thinks so.

Hearing the door sound, Ke Lai put down the stone he was training with and looked over.

Upon seeing Dixiya among those who came in, she exclaimed joyfully, "Dixiya, you're back~~"

After saying that.

She then brushed off the dust on her clothes and hurriedly said, "I'll go call Luo De back."

Since Luo De still doesn't allow her to enter the village.

Thus, the people Ke Lai knows in A Ru Cun are just a few.

When he first arrived at the village, Dixiya, who used to help her bathe every day, was one of them.

However, Ke Lai was clearer about it.

Luo De definitely missed Dixiya even more than she did.

So upon seeing Dixiya return, she immediately ran to the experimental field and called back the still busy Luo De.

Tonight, Luo De's home was especially lively.

Not only was Dixiya here, but Cyno and Kantisi also stayed to have dinner together.

Different from the rigid, stern image of the Chief Discipline Officer when they first met.

In private, Cyno was very affable.

After carefully checking Ke Lai's condition, he immediately agreed to seal the Archon's remnants for Ke Lai.

However, his arrival time at A Ru Cun was not the best moment for the seal.

Finally, they set it for tomorrow morning at ten o'clock, to go to the highest peak near A Ru Cun to perform the seal.

The big stone in his heart finally fell.

Luo De enthusiastically made a big table full of dishes, also using many fresh vegetables just pulled from the experimental field.

These novel foods truly amazed Cyno and Kantisi as they ate.

The only one not happy.

That was A De Ba Yi, who got so angry at the sight of Cyno that she couldn't eat.

Fortunately.

He also didn't go out, locking himself in Luo De's study, thus avoiding everyone's embarrassment.

After finishing the meal.

Kantisi and Cyno got up to say their goodbyes.

Kantisi had to go to the village to carry out her night watch duty.

Cyno went to the village inn to rest; during this period he had been windswept and sleeping outdoors in the desert, needing proper rest.

The chore of clearing the table was still being done by Ke Lai.

Although she and Luo De have now spoken openly and are no longer mutually wary as at the beginning, she still insists on that set of exchanging labor for meals.

"You guys are getting along well now, huh?"

Looking at the busy Ke Lai, Dixiya laughed.

Recalling when she left, Luo De and Ke Lai were still on guard against each other, forming a stark contrast with their current relationship as both teacher and friend.

"Mm, yeah."

Luo De let out a sigh, then turned his head, looking at Dixiya and said: "By the way, can I commission you Blazing Light Beast Hunters to do something?"

"Huh?"

"Why be so formal?"

Hearing Luo De's rather solemn tone, Dixiya joked: "Just tell us what you need; as long as it's not a commission to attack the Academy, we can do it."

"It might be a bit dangerous."

"As mercenaries, which commission we've taken hasn't been dangerous?"

"Then I said?"

"Go on, what's there to be embarrassed about?"

"I want to ask you to gather information about the Tanite Tribe—their settlements, hunting grounds, trade routes—the more the better, the more detailed the better."

Upon hearing that this was the commission.

Dixiya's face suddenly changed.
