The departure time was in the evening. Including the Demon King and Reina, there were a total of thirteen people in the guild. The adventurers who participated in the rescue would receive a reward of seven thousand.
The search and rescue ship was still preparing, and everyone went back to prepare for the sea.
At this time, the guild was empty. The seats that were usually full of people were now empty. Now, the only adventurer sitting in the guild was the Demon King.
"Master, don't we need to prepare anything?" Reina asked uneasily.
The Demon King shook his head and said, "No, we prepared last night."
Reina was a little puzzled. Just as she was about to ask something, the Vice President walked out and met the two of them.
"Don't you need to prepare?" she asked.
The Demon King shook his head.
The Vice President pushed her glasses and said, "Well, come with me. I have something to tell you about the mission."
When the two of them stood up, she looked at Reina and said, "You can stay here. Generally speaking, the guild doesn't allow family members to come in. If you have anything, you can look for Elena."
After saying that, she turned and left. Reina made a face at her back. The Demon King looked back at Reina and then left.
On the third floor of the guild, there was a group of people in blue and yellow uniforms. They had their own independent office desks. There were delicate magic crystals on the desks, and they were all in the shape of the sea.
It turned out that there were people monitoring the nearby sea. The Demon King really didn't expect that. Fortunately, he didn't expose himself when he stirred up trouble last night. Otherwise, it would be troublesome.
"Our guild is mainly responsible for surveillance, so we can't send too many people to carry out the search and rescue mission. Therefore, the guild wants to give you a very important mission." The Vice President said as she walked. At this time, she led the demon through the group of people monitoring the sea. They walked through a corridor and came to an iron door.
There were two bronze statue knights in front of the iron door. The Vice President took out a blue crystal and whispered, "Yes." After four to five seconds, the bronze statues moved and retreated to both sides. They put away their weapons and the iron door opened with a series of clicking sounds.
Inside was a room with a red woolen carpet and low red sandalwood furniture.
"Come in."
A voice suddenly came from the room. Walking into the room, he saw a very short old man with a strange appearance sitting in front of the bookshelf.
His nose was as thick and short as his fingers, and his eyebrows were so long that they covered his eyes. She didn't know how he saw the documents on the table.
"This is our guild leader, Sea Watcher Kanitov. You should have heard of him."
The Vice President explained. The Demon King acted as if he had never heard of it before, but he showed a serious expression. He seemed to have realized that this mission was not a simple search and rescue mission.
"Have a seat," the man said.
The Vice President moved a chair over and the iron door slowly closed.
"Why are you looking for me? I don't think you specifically invited me to drink tea and chat." The Demon King looked at the Vice President who was pouring tea.
"No, I quite like to chat, but now is not the time. I need you to do something."
Guild Leader Kanitov lowered his voice.
"There is a certain degree of danger in this matter. You can die."
The Demon King's face was expressionless. There was not a single ripple in his heart.
"How about it? Can you accept this mission?"
"Can't you tell me what you want me to do?"
The other party shook his head and said, "No, as long as you hear a word, you can only participate. Otherwise …"
The other party did not continue, and the Demon King did not intend to know.
"Can I ask a few questions?" The Demon King asked.
"Three questions. By the way, you have already asked one," the other party replied.
"The first one, why did you choose me? Why do you believe that I will obediently do as you say?" The Demon King's eyes darkened as he looked at the Dwarf Guild Leader and asked.
Kanitov smiled bitterly and said, "This is our awkward situation. We do not have enough people on our side. Those who are strong are not often in the Guild. As for the others, you should have seen them. They are all lazy fellows, and they are all locals. Rather than saying that they are from the Guild, it would be more appropriate to say that they were sent by the Empire."
The Demon King did not say anything. The two of them were silent for a while.
"Alright, the other reason is because the person you recommended was that Silver Knight. I believe that boy, so I chose to believe you."
"That guy is quite prestigious." The Demon King muttered to himself.
"Don't look down on him. He is a very talented person, and he is also the Army God's disciple. It is a pity." Kanitov sighed.
"One last question."
The Demon King raised his head and looked at the other party.
"Do you want to kill someone?"
Kanitov was startled. The other party actually said this without any change in expression, which really surprised him.
"That depends on you. If you think that it is more convenient, then it is up to you." Kanitov shrugged.
At this time, the Vice President's expression changed slightly, almost spilling her tea.
"You have asked your question. It is my turn. I can guarantee you that if you can successfully complete this mission, you will definitely receive a generous reward. Moreover, as long as you want, I can be your recommendation and let you participate in the Dark Adventurer's exam. "After saying that, the other party lifted her chin and leaned back in her chair, as if she thought that these two conditions were very tempting.
The Demon King touched his chin and thought for a while.
"Tell me what this mission is about."
"Not a bad answer."
The corner of Kanitov's mouth rose slightly. Then the Vice President took out a red box, inside it was a black sticky unknown object.
"Please."
She said to the Demon King.
The Demon King was a bit puzzled. He didn't know what this box was for.
"This is a Contract Magic to prevent you from betraying the Guild. Put your hand on it to show your determination."
Kanitov said casually.
The Demon King looked at the black mud. It shouldn't be a living thing, it should be some kind of curse. A curse that can materialize into a physical body, which means that the humans of this world can already control part of the dark energy.
This made the Demon King's hair stand on end. He didn't dare to imagine how many lives were lost behind this thing.
He put his hand on it, and the black mud immediately wrapped around his hand. It was very enthusiastic, as if it had returned home.
"Quickly take your hand back!! If you still want to live! "Kanitov suddenly shouted. He nervously stood up, although it was more or less the same as sitting down.
"This is the first time I've seen this kind of situation. Are you alright?"
The Demon King shook his head. A black thread that looked like spider silk appeared in his hand. Then, it disappeared not long after.
Kanitov's forehead was covered in sweat. He looked very nervous.
"It's fine as long as you're alright. I can only tell you that this thing is very dangerous. Now that your life is in the hands of the Guild, I hope you don't do anything stupid."
The Demon King smiled faintly. This curse was just a joke to him.
"Now can you tell me the content of the mission?" He asked.
The President Kanitov wiped the cold sweat on his forehead.
"It's very simple. I want you to snatch a chest before the Empire …"
