"Why is it them again …" The Jade Summoner's Jade Emperor rested his head on his palm when he saw Crimson Moon, Crimson Ribbon, and Emerald Dance. These players were still a distance away from true experts. At most, they were ordinary players with slightly above average techniques. Their equipment was only passable. Truth be told, without Li Huailin's help, they wouldn't be able to complete this AA-rank Hidden Quest. However, with Li Huailin's help, it was hard to say.
"It's okay, it's just an AA Hidden Quest. It's not like I haven't done it before." Li Huailin waved his hand. He was in a good mood. When Red Ribbon appeared, he had secretly placed the mark on her body. After trying it out, Li Huailin also learned how to use it. Now, Li Huailin could find Red Ribbon at any time. However, he would have to wait until she was alone. It was obvious that he couldn't do it now, so he had to finish the quest as soon as possible.
"Fortunately, that annoying little girl didn't come this time," Jade Emperor Summoner said. The Jade Summoning Emperor said. She was talking about Hongyan drinking water because she was always against the Jade Summoning Emperor.
"Wow … You're Jade Emperor Summoner, right? I'm your fan!" Verdant Dance said excitedly when she saw Jade Emperor Summoner. After all, Jade Emperor Summoner was also a professional player. It was normal for her to have her own fans. Moreover, she was the highest ranked female professional player, so she had a lot of female fans. Even so, Jade Emperor Summoner's eyebrows twitched when she heard Jade Emperor Summoner's title.
"Please don't call me that title anymore. It's all because someone is giving me trouble," Jade Emperor Summoner said and glared at Li Huailin. This whole thing was caused by this guy.
"Summoner, I'll have to trouble you again this time," Red Moon said and went up to greet Jade Emperor Summoner. She was also a little familiar with Jade Emperor Summoner.
"It's good that you know it's troublesome." The Jade Emperor's mouth was quite poisonous. "Alright, alright. Everyone is here. Let's form a team."
This time, Jade Emperor Summon formed a party. Very quickly, the party was formed. Jade Emperor Summon was Level 50, Crimson Moon and Crimson Ribbon were Level 47, Crimson Feather and Emerald Dance were Level 46, and Li Huailin's party was Level 56.
"Damn, how did you level up so quickly?" Even the Jade Emperor was shocked. Just what was going on with Li Huailin's Level? Li Huailin's Level had remained stagnant at Level 43 for a long time. Now, after just a few days, he had suddenly risen to Level 56. What was going on?
"This is just my usual leveling speed. Don't be surprised, don't be surprised," Li Huailin said, waving his hand. "Let's find out what kind of quest this is."
"Hmm …" Jade Emperor Summon reluctantly accepted this setting. After all, he was Brother Awesome. No matter what happened, it wouldn't be strange. So, he began to introduce the quest. "Alright, let's talk about it first. This is a Mercenary Quest, so let's go to the Mercenary Guild to accept it first."
"Oh, I'll listen to you," Li Huailin said, waving his hand.
The group set off for the Mercenary Guild. Along the way, Li Huailin and Red Moon discussed the Guild's current situation.
Currently, the Red Army of Women's development was considered stable. Since the shop had started operating normally, the Guild's funds were no longer a problem. In fact, it could be said that the Guild had too much funds. Now, the Guild had more than enough funds to spend. So, Red Moon suggested to Li Huailin that they should start selling Coins in exchange for cash dividends.
"I don't have any objections. In any case, Ruoyan will be in charge," Li Huailin replied.
"Mhm, I think so too. I'll ask Yan 'er when she returns." Red Moon nodded.
Now that the Guild's funding problem had been resolved, many other issues had also been resolved. For example, the Guild's members no longer had to search for their own supplies. Everyone's main goal was to level up. Hence, the Guild's members leveled up very quickly. Among ordinary players, their leveling speed was already considered relatively high. As for the current size of the Guild, it hadn't exceeded the threshold of 500 members yet. This was because Red Moon was relatively strict in accepting new members. Moreover, because the Heart of Glory game was developing well this time, Red Moon also had plans to establish an offline studio. Now, the studio was already in the process of applying, and it was estimated that it would be approved in a few days.
"I won't be coming. It's all women. It's not good for me to mix in," Li Huailin said simply.
"I didn't invite you. We are a female studio. Do you really want to live in it? But after you and Yan 'er get married, I can consider it," said Red Moon.
"I won't come even if I get married."
While they were talking, they had already walked to the entrance of the Mercenary Guild. The Mercenary Guild was still abnormally busy. Players came in and out of the place to accept a few quests and earn some money for potions. Ordinary players didn't have the resources that big guilds had. It was almost impossible for them to concentrate on leveling up. They could only earn money while leveling up. Therefore, the Mercenary Guild had become one of the busiest places in the main city.
"Alright, let's stop chatting. This way." Jade Emperor quickly brought them to the Mercenary Guild's hall and walked to a corner of the hall. Six NPCs appeared in front of Li Huailin's group. All of them were humans, but what caught Li Huailin's attention was the fact that all six of them were elderly. The youngest was estimated to be around 60 years old, while the oldest was estimated to be around 70 years old.
Another thing that caught Li Huailin's attention was that these people seemed to have some scars on their bodies. Some weren't obvious, while others were more obvious. For example, this old man had a knife wound on his face, and another old man had his entire left arm cut off. According to Li Huailin's experience, these scars looked like they were left behind by people who had been on the battlefield.
"Jade Emperor Summoner, are these the most powerful mercenaries?" An old man named Henry, who seemed to be the leader, asked Jade Emperor Summoner as he pulled his hand.
"Uh, they are the most powerful mercenaries we can find," Jade Emperor Summoner replied.
"Everyone, hurry up, hurry up …" Henry hurriedly waved his hand, and the six old men immediately knelt on the ground. "Great mercenaries, please help us. You must save our village."
"Get up first, get up first …" Seeing the old men kneeling on the ground, Red Moon and the rest obviously couldn't stand it anymore. They immediately went up to help them up, including Red Ribbon. It seemed like Red Ribbon's androphobia was only limited to young men. She wasn't afraid of the old.
"Don't worry, speak slowly. We will definitely help you," Red Moon and the rest quickly said to the old men as they quickly helped them to sit down.
"Really?" The old men were very excited. "Our village is very poor, and we can't gather anything decent. We only have these savings … Please save our village."
As he spoke, Henry took out a money pouch. The money pouch wasn't closed, so it wasn't gold in color. Instead, it was silver. This meant that there were at most a few hundred silver coins in it. It was indeed not much.
"Huh? The mission reward is so little? " What Li Huailin meant was that he didn't mind the small amount of money. Not only did he not get any money from completing the quest, but he would also be deducted. If the reward was small, it would be a good thing for him. What he couldn't figure out was why the Jade Emperor would accept such a quest without any reward.
"You'll receive the quest reward from the other NPC," the Jade Emperor Summoner said.
"Oh, I see." Li Huailin nodded.
However, although Li Huailin didn't mean it, the old men thought that their reward was too little, which caused the mercenaries to be unhappy. They immediately knelt down again. "Sir Mercenary, this is all we can gather. Please help us …"
"Alright, alright. Old men, please get up first. Sit down and talk slowly. We will try our best to help you." Red Moon immediately said. Anyone with a little bit of compassion wouldn't be able to resist such a situation. They agreed to the mission without even knowing what it was.
"Really? Sir Mercenary, will you really help us? " Henry pulled Red Moon's hand as he spoke. As they were poor, they didn't receive any rewards at all. Moreover, the mission was difficult, so many people had rejected them. Even the Mercenary Guild couldn't register them for the mission. This was because their mission was an A-rank mission. It was very difficult, and the reward was only 2 gold coins. Moreover, they couldn't afford the Mercenary Guild's intermediary fees. Therefore, the old men could only stay in the Guild and look for people on their own. For the past two days, they had been rejected wave after wave. Now, they couldn't find anyone. They didn't expect to find someone to help them today. The old men were so excited that if it weren't for Red Moon, they would have knelt down again.
"Stop kneeling, stop kneeling." Red Moon pulled Henry and said, "Grandpa, tell us what the mission is. We will accept it."
"Really? That's great!" All the old men immediately cheered in joy.
"Our village is saved!" "We finally found a mercenary who can help us!"
"Alright, alright. Stop talking nonsense. We don't have time for this." Li Huailin stepped forward and stopped the old men who were still cheering. "You guys, quickly organize your words and tell us what the mission is. We still have things to do here. Let's finish it quickly."
"Oh, okay … okay …" Due to Li Huailin's imposing manner, Henry was a little timid. After a short discussion, the elders decided to let Henry, who was more eloquent, explain the situation.
