Weird Wizarding World Chapter 372

  Chapter 372 Special Mandatory Task

   "Tell me about the potion gift."

  An unidentifiable male and female voice came from behind, and Ye Xiao subconsciously turned his neck slightly.

   "Don't look back, or I can't guarantee what will happen to you." The voice continued.

  Ye Xiao's heart skipped a beat, and he froze in place.

   "Answer my question." Colin continued.

   "Okay... yes, my lord." Ye Xiao finally came to his senses, and said hastily, then paused and asked with a trembling tone: "What your lord just asked... I didn't hear it very clearly."

   "Tell me about potion boons, and... mercy."

   "Oh... yes... yes." Ye Xiao organized his words and said like pouring beans:

   "Gift and mercy... Well, at first there was only the potion of mercy, which suddenly appeared on the Muxi black market about half a year ago, and the potion gift is a new product that just appeared in the past two months."

"anything else?"

"Also... Also, it is said that they are all from the hands of a second-rank potion master from outside. The potion master's code name is the death bird. He made a move, but in the end it was nothing."

"continue."

   "And... and..." Ye Xiao's mind was spinning rapidly, his face was flustered, but he just kept murmuring.

   Colin frowned slightly.

   "There's more... I don't know more, my lord..." Feeling the powerful energy fluctuation brewing behind him, Ye Xiao felt as if his heart was tightly clenched by an invisible hand, and shouted in a high-pitched panic,

   "I'm just an off-line adult at the outermost edge... By the way! I got the goods from Old Bolton, who is in Muxi's black market... I really only know this, please don't kill me, sir!

  If...if your lord wants more information, I can take you to Old Bolton..."

  Ye Xiao tensed his body and spoke in a flustered tone, but the next moment, he suddenly realized that the silent witchcraft around him had dissipated at some point.

   Feeling it carefully, the terrifying energy fluctuations behind his back just now disappeared. Ye Xiao secretly swallowed his saliva, hesitated for a moment, and then slowly turned his head back.

  The sight is just an empty alley, and the cold wind at night rustles the fallen leaves on the ground.

  Everything just now seemed to be just an illusion... Ye Xiao let out a breath of foul air, pulled up the mask and wiped the sweat from his forehead, and left here quickly.

   On the other side, Colin continued to go home.

  He didn't intend to find any old Bolton, nor did he intend to delve into this matter further.

  Tonight is just a temporary idea.

  'Succubus bird… alien wizard. ' Colin shook his head.

  He did not believe that a helpless foreign wizard who possessed the two precious potions of mercy and grace could gain a firm foothold in the city of Neustadt, which cannibalize people by himself.

  There is obviously something tricky behind this incident. There is a high probability that there is a shadow of a pure-blood wizard family behind the death bird, but it is impossible for ordinary peripheral wizards like Night Owl to know.

  'Mercy...gift...' Colin chewed on the names of the two potions.

  Joyce's strange behavior when he took the Mercy Potion back then is still fresh in his memory, and the potion gift that appears now that can increase the speed of thinking and assist wizards in knowledge research is probably not a good thing.

  'The city seems to be getting more and more chaotic. ' Colin sighed in his heart, as the cold wind hit his face, his eyes gradually became firm.

  'No matter what the outside world is like, what I should do, and the only thing I can do, is to improve myself. '

  Thinking of this, Colin felt a little relieved, at least he never slack off.

  Life has never failed his diligence. The elemental net witchcraft successfully researched today is the best proof...

  The night wind was blowing slowly, and Colin's back gradually faded away.

   "You said that there may be new opportunities recently?"

  In a well-decorated study room, Gerner looked at Barr in front of him and raised his eyebrows and asked.

   "Yes, we can't miss it this time." Barr yelled, and sat down across from Gerner unceremoniously.

   "What chance is it?" Gener didn't care, but continued to ask.

   "What else, remember what we were sent to stop Colin last time?"

   "You mean... mandatory missions?" Garner asked.

   "That's right, that Jin Yu is going to perform a new mandatory mission soon, and it took me a lot of effort to find out from the family!" Barr said.

   "Some time ago, didn't that Jin Yu leave the city of Neustadt once?

  He was away for about a week. During this period, the school sent him a new mandatory task, but because he was not there, the task was finally assigned to another wizard. "

   Hearing this, Gener understood, his eyes lit up, "You mean that Colin will be assigned another mandatory mission recently... This is our chance?"

   "...Yes!" Barton nodded and said, "We must not miss this time."

  He thought for a while and added, "I also found out that the compulsory task assigned to that Jin Yu this time may be a little special."

   "Special...how is it a special law?" Gener wondered.

   "I don't know either." Barr shook his head, paused and added,

   "However, I know that our family has decided not to recruit this Jin Yu in the short term. Those witches who were originally in charge of building a good relationship with Jin Yu have recently been ordered to stop."

   "I also heard that the situation in the city is complicated recently. I guess the family probably doesn't have the extra energy to pay attention to a golden feather." Gener nodded slowly, and added: "It's just convenient for us to do it."

   "Indeed." Barr nodded with a smile.

  The less attention that Jin Yu received, the safer their actions would be.

   "Tell me what's going on in this city recently, and the management regulations appear too inexplicably." Barr thought for a while, and then asked with some worry.

"I don't know." Gener shook his head, "But I know that before the management regulations appeared, for about a month or so, the number of accidents caused by wizard research in the city increased sharply, one after another... Maybe that's why The reason for the sudden implementation of management regulations.”

   "...Maybe." Barr nodded noncommittally, but he felt that the reason behind the issuance of the management regulations would not be so simple.

  But he didn't say much, but said with a serious face, "We must be careful in this operation, and we must be fully prepared."

   "Although the golden feather is only a first-level advanced wizard, if Joyce really died in his hands... then I think we should at least treat him as a second-level intermediate wizard!"

"You're right." Gener nodded in agreement, then thought for a while and said: "Just in case, let's prepare as a second-level senior wizard, auxiliary witchcraft crystals, traps, potions, etc. Get ready!"

   "Okay, anyway, it's better to be cautious." Barr nodded, paused, and said, "Although the possibility is very small, I will hold back before setting off.

  If there is any emergency, at least let the family know who killed me, and it won't be like Joyce—no one knows what happened to him. "

  Gener thought for a moment, then nodded, "You're right, I'll give you a backhand."

  He thought for a while and asked again, "But what if Colin is indeed only a first-level senior wizard?"

   "If it's just a first-order high-level wizard, it means that Joyce is absolutely impossible to kill him. We just leave when the time comes." Barman said indifferently.

   "Yes." Gener nodded slowly.

  If Colin is just a first-level senior wizard, then there is absolutely no way to stir up any troubles in front of the two second-level wizards who are fully prepared!

  The next day, the sun was fine.

  Before the morning light penetrated the darkness before dawn, Colin got up early.

  Today's task is still heavy, he plans to transform at least a new ice element, or it can also be called the shadow of frost.

   The only problem is that the first step he needs to do now is to find a new place where he can transform the ice element.

  The web of elements is already a second-level high-level witchcraft. When the ice element is transformed, it will inevitably produce stronger magic energy fluctuations than the second-level low-level described in the previous report.

  With the current environment of the Zhenzhi Society, it is obviously impossible to continue to transform the ice element there.

  The best way is actually to go out of the city. The law enforcement team is only in the city. Outside Neustadt, there are a lot of places for him to transform with ice elements.

  'Or go to the wilderness jungle last time? '

  Just as Colin was planning where to go today in the study, the badge of the school on his body suddenly lit up.

  Colin picked it up and looked at it, then raised his eyebrows.

   This is a notice from the school, asking him to go to the General Affairs Castle as soon as possible to receive the mandatory task.

   Sighing slightly, Colin put away the newspaper he was reading and rushed towards the school.

  The plan is always unable to keep up with the changes, so right now I can only go to collect the mandatory tasks first.

   This cannot be delayed, because it was outside the city and there was force majeure.

   But now, while he can receive the notification from the school, it also means that the school knows that he is in the city of Neustadt. If he does not go to the school to receive the compulsory task within 24 hours, he will be punished accordingly.

  Passing through the gate guarded by Zuo Ao and You Ao, and came to the familiar General Affairs Castle, Colin walked to a counter on the second floor with ease.

  The wizard on duty today is unexpectedly a familiar face. If I remember correctly, it is the wizard on duty when I came to receive the mission to the Far North last time.

   "Good morning, Your Excellency Colin." The wizard on duty obviously knew Colin, the golden feather.

  Because he started to take classes in the school in recent months, Colin is far more famous in the Xisheng school than before.

   Most of the first- and second-level wizards in the school have heard of this newly promoted Jin Yu, and of course, they all know that this Jin Yu, who will answer questions after class for a fee, has not yet joined any faction.

   Some people were puzzled, some laughed secretly, but more people still maintained superficial respect for Jin Yu.

  Because everyone knows that as long as Colin is willing to nod to the pure-blood family, he can jump up and become the wizard they have to respect.

  The same is true for Bobby on duty, he gestured to Colin to sit down with a big smile on his face.

   "If you guessed correctly, you should have come to receive the mandatory mission."

  Colin nodded slightly, and at the same time handed over the badge of the school.

  Bobby accepted the badge with a smile, restrained his smile slightly, and said seriously, "Wait a minute, let me check for you."

   After a while, he was startled, raised his head and said to Colin, "Your Excellency's mission this time is a garrison mission."

  'Garrison mission...' A puzzled look appeared on Colin's face.

  Bobby paused and continued:

   "Your Excellency needs to go to the Kingdom of Loen as a garrison wizard for this mission, and station there to assist the royal family in solving possible supernatural threats. The mission period is three years."

   After finishing speaking, Bobby handed the detailed task crystal to Colin, "For more detailed information, you can check it in the crystal."

  Colin took the crystal, his heart sank.

  The Kingdom of Loen, located in the south of Neustadt City, is a medium-to-large vassal state directly under the Kingdom of Neustadt. The straight-line distance from Neustadt City is about 1,200 kilometers.

   More than a thousand kilometers, in the country in the previous life, starting from the southernmost point, at most, it only traveled less than one-third.

   But in this world, they have passed through many kingdoms, large and small, from the most prosperous city of wizards to more remote areas.

   But strictly speaking, it's not that remote. After all, the Kingdom of Loen is one of the five subordinate countries of the Kingdom of Neustadt, and it's not a small country.

  The territory of Loen Kingdom is flat, and there are many fields suitable for farming.

  Its unique conditions made it the kingdom with the most grain production among the vassal states belonging to Neustadt, and it also gave the Kingdom of Loen a nickname—Neuss's Golden Ears of Wheat.

  In fact, the name of the capital of the Loen Kingdom is also Golden Wheat.

   "Your Excellency Colin, due to the particularity of the garrison mission, you don't need to complete any mandatory missions of any school within these three years." Bobby thought for a while, and continued to talk about some precautions to Colin,

   "But at the same time, you also need to ensure that you spend at least 90% of your time in the territory of the Loen Kingdom."

   "As for the rewards for stationing missions, the school will distribute them once a year, each time with 700 school contribution points and 10,000 magic stones."

  Colin put down the crystal and nodded calmly.

  'Seven hundred contribution points...equivalent to doing 3.5 missions in the extreme north. '

"Ninety percent of the time must be spent in the Loen Kingdom, which means that on average, only three days a month can leave the kingdom... a distance of 1,200 kilometers, if the current flying speed is used, it will take about four hours. across. '

  Colin thought silently in his heart that the compulsory mission of the school cannot be refused. Now that it has been assigned, his only choice is to accept it.

   But thinking about it carefully, this garrison mission does not seem to be as bad as imagined.

   "When will the school contribution points for the first mission be distributed?" He thought for a while and continued to ask Bobby.

   "The task will be issued as soon as it starts, and you can receive it now if you wish." Bobby said.

   "Get it now." Colin smiled slightly.

   "...Okay, Mr. Colin." Seeing Colin's smile, Bobby was slightly taken aback.

  Even he could see that this garrison mission was to "assign" the wizard in front of him to a remote place... But Colin could still laugh?

  From the city of miracles that every wizard yearns for, to a medium-sized kingdom... Even if three years is not a long time, but such a big gap, even if ordinary wizards can accept it, it is impossible to laugh...

  But after careful thinking, Colin's thoughts were completely different.

  This mandatory task may be a good surprise for him!

   First of all, as a garrison task, the work content must be very easy. Rounding it up, he used to be equivalent to changing to a different place to practice, and he can also contribute points to the prostitution school every year.

  Secondly, the distance of the Loen Kingdom is neither too far nor too close. It is far away from the disputes in the city of Neustadt, and it does not mean that it will take ten and a half months to return.

  In addition to the average "holiday" of three days a month, in fact, at his speed, he can take advantage of those three days to go back and forth to Neustadt once.

  Although it is a bit troublesome, at least the opportunity to obtain resources in the city will not be lost. After rounding up, it may be the same as staying in the city now.

  In addition, with the promulgation of the regulations on the management of wizard research, the research and practice environment in the city has been tightened.

  Colin was considering finding a place outside Neustadt to conceal his own strength and continue his research.

   This was originally a troublesome matter, but when we went to the Loen Kingdom, everything would be easily solved—there were no public security management regulations there, and I am afraid that there were no high-level wizards who could see through the disguise of their own strength!

   After sorting out his thoughts again, Colin felt completely relaxed and even a little happy.

  Maybe life is like this, sometimes it seems bad at first glance, but when you think about it from another angle, you will find that it is a good thing!
