Chapter 22: Exorcist (Beginning)
Su Jiu was also a little curious about what E Huo would transform into, after all, ordinary beast pets couldn’t use such vast resources.
She calculated that it would require at least 2.5 million to evolve, which was like a dream. How many novice warriors could afford to raise a beast pet with that much money?
Wouldn’t it be better to use that money for body tempering fluids and breakthroughs?
At night, she returned to Bai Qianyu’s home and recounted what had happened to Bai Chen, who looked surprised.
Under the illumination of the white light, Bai Chen narrowed his eyes and looked at her. After a long silence, he sighed slightly, “You are very good, much stronger than Xiao Ming.”
The last time he had seen such a genius was at that place. Especially when Su Jiu confessed that she was indeed a student from Zhiyuan High School, his first reaction was disbelief, followed by a wave of laughter. “You go take a bath, same old room, just wear Qianyu’s clothes.”
Then, looking at Su Jiu’s back, as if thinking of something, he took out his phone and made a call – “Hello, tonight, the pictures of the rescuer’s face about the students’ picnic on the mountain cannot appear.”
Su Jiu’s willingness to split the egg liquid 50/50 made him quite satisfied, at least she was a person who valued loyalty.
However, Huayang has been a bit restless lately… it’s better to stay hidden.
The next day, Su Jiu bid farewell to Bai Qianyu. With more than half a day left before returning to school, she found a shared bicycle and rode for about half an hour. Looking at the building with a slightly Western style on the street, Su Jiu unhesitatingly entered the hall of the Adventurer’s Guild.
The Adventurer’s Guild is an organization that integrates scattered martial artists. Thousands of martial artists come here every day to find suitable bounties.
Hunting monsters is the only way Su Jiu can earn money now. Whether she can gather 2.5 million or not, at least magic crystals must be obtained by hunting monsters. This path will be her only choice.
It’s bullshit to say that she didn’t use illusionary weapons. She had consulted a lot of information yesterday, all of which indicated that the more growth potential a monster has, the more materials it needs.
What level is E Huo now?
War General? Definitely not.
Battle King, but it feels like the resources needed are much higher than any monster announced online.
As for War God… this level cannot be viewed with the current permissions on the internet she can access.
Su Jiu guessed that E Huo mutated after drinking the egg liquid, and it is very likely a War God-level monster. This time, she might have struck gold.
As for why she didn’t suspect that E Huo hatched from the egg, would a finger-sized snake hatched from such a large egg be serious?
If it were true, Darwin would probably smash his coffin lid!
Moreover, the more powerful the creature, the higher its initial point. Shouldn’t the descendant of the Dragon Egg owner be the image of that world-destroying Western dragon?
To quickly obtain magic crystals, one can only kill monsters above the Advanced Stage Warrior level, but those are still relatively dangerous for Su Jiu, as she can’t defeat the Wolf King in the illusion yet.
The idea of being a lone wolf adventurer.
Su Jiu directly shook her head and rejected it. What she needed to do now was to find a suitable adventurer team, with teammates who had some auxiliary functions like Bai Ming in the early stage.
Almost all warriors who mingled in the Adventurer’s Guild were in a team. Very few people could hunt powerful monsters alone.
…
The Adventurer’s Guild, with people coming and going, felt like a large casino hall, and also like a job fair.
A huge LCD screen was hanging on the wall, displaying the latest bounties, with the bounty prices marked behind them. The lowest bounty was 100,000, and the highest could reach a million.
Su Jiu looked at the million-level bounties, and her throat involuntarily rolled as she swallowed, truly a job that would allow her to rest for a year after doing it once.
Completing three bounties of this level would allow her to buy five magic crystals for E Huo to break through to the Warrior Class. Thinking about having a monster beast turn into a weapon in front of her high school classmates would be quite cool.
Anyway, Bai Qianyu wouldn’t be hostile to her now, and she could definitely show off to some extent!
Unfortunately, that’s not something ordinary people can do!
Su Jiu saw the words “minimum Battle General level requirement” below and her eyes went blank.
“Wild Goblin Squad is urgently recruiting a DPS warrior, requiring 3+ years of combat experience, team cooperation awareness, and skillfully mastering fire-based martial skills. Bounty accepted, average reward 20,000 RMB, expected completion within 2 months!”
“Defensive bloodline, the squad is urgently seeking an experienced meat shield who can attract the Scarlet Flame Wolf pack, no bottom feeders allowed!”
“Fight, fight! Where are the warriors with strong offensive skills? Join our ‘Blasting Heavens’ squad, we guarantee efficient completion of bounties and collect rewards!”
Su Jiu scanned the board, her eyelids twitching. She noticed many warriors who came to join teams were carrying resumes.
The resumes clearly seemed to prove their tenure, the number of bounties they had completed, and even their bounty levels.
Su Jiu found it dazzling and wasn’t sure how to choose.
It seemed that fresh graduates were often disliked and unwanted because they truly lacked experience in dealing with monsters. Mistakes could lead to death. Who would dare to take fresh graduates?
And Su Jiu, she didn’t even graduate from high school yet…
Just a newly awakened third-year high school student. Bringing such a student would be a burden and a drag on teammates. Looking at the students facing the wolf pack on the mountain behind yesterday, it was too difficult to find a suitable team.
“I’m so sick of it, I forgot that Bai Ming, that favored one, became an adventurer thanks to the daughter of the president of the Huayang Adventurer’s Guild.” Su Jiu couldn’t help but curse inwardly, she really thought the novel author was crazy to give him so many cheat systems.
Just as Su Jiu finished cursing, someone rushed past her, their slightly immature face filled with urgency.
“Sorry, sorry, the Exorcists are recruiting new members, I have to hurry and try, sorry for bumping into you,” a weak woman wearing thick glasses quickly said to Su Jiu.
“Exorcists?” Su Jiu asked with some confusion.
“Yes, don’t you know? They are a team that specializes in eliminating urban hidden dangers and hunting monsters that may be lurking in the city. They are actual civil servants. Recently, more and more monsters have appeared in the city, and the Exorcist teams have suffered heavy losses, so some slots have been opened.” The girl pushed up her thick glasses, her expression extremely serious, and said:
“Exorcists have always been people’s first choice. After all, who would want to go to the wilderness to face unknown life and death when they can do bounties in the city? Moreover, the rewards for Exorcists have always been very high…”
“Qingqing Wang, don’t waste your time. As a recent college graduate, you have no experience and no strength. Even if you are an intermediate warrior, the Exorcists won’t take you, and you’re not a high-burst warrior,” an old man next to them said with a smile, lighting a cigarette and revealing his yellow teeth.
“I… I’ll just try,” the glasses-wearing girl Wang Qingqing said, lowering her head slightly, looking a bit embarrassed.
“High burst?” Su Jiu’s eyes lit up, and she quickly asked if her “Draw Saber Slash” was qualified.
Joining the Exorcist team would not only give her public status but also allow her to earn rewards within the city. For Su Jiu, who was still slacking off in school, this was a very suitable job. She could skip classes when doing missions.
What are you saying – skipping class is what bad students do.
Huh?
Seriously, out of 40 classes a week, she, Su Jiu, would at most attend five or six classes seriously, and that was only because those classes were about monster weaknesses or the teacher was a beauty.
“Having high-burst martial skills has always been the most sought after by every team, after all, it’s too damn few people who can learn high-burst martial skills. Those who can reach the fourth stage of comprehension wouldn’t even look at this kind of reward,” the old adventurer took a deep drag, pressed the cigarette on the table, and continued enviously,
“Alas, with my Green Bird bloodline, although it’s wood-based, it’s at least combat-oriented. Just because I don’t have those damage-dealing martial skills, I was forced by those scoundrels to learn bathing techniques and rejuvenating rain… to be a healer!”
