The painting depicted a black-cloaked man in the shadows. His chiseled face was filled with murderous intent, and there were many zombie-like creatures standing around him. They all looked ferocious, their bodies swaying as if they would jump out of the painting and bite them at any moment.
[Mission A-4]
[Mission Description: Kill the Border Slaughterer codenamed 'Corpse Tamer'. Based on his area of activity, it is estimated that he is at the border of City 0010. The mission mark has been imprinted on his body.
[Note: 1. Corpse Tamer has been proven to be able to control the corpses of any dead creatures. Corpses possess a certain degree of offensive power. 2. Corpse Tamer is estimated to be a Level-2 Magician. 3. According to known information, Corpse Tamer has killed dozens of Magic Apprentices and more than ten Magicians, including six Level-2 Magicians. Please choose wisely. A Level-2 Magician team is recommended for this mission.]
[Mission Reward: 1. All resources on Corpse Tamer; 2. 1500 GPA; 3. A free magic scroll from the mission hall.]
The reward for this mission was very generous. Li Xiang was certain that this was the person Dean Lei Lin was looking for the moment he saw this Border Slaughterer.
On his legs was the Demon Set that was exactly the same as his Demon Right Arm.
Secondly, he recognized this person.
It was the Sword Knight, Black Elephant, who had escaped from Blackstone Prisoner Town and been carried away by the Black Flag Dragon!
Shouldn't he have returned to the tarot cards? How did he end up as a Border Slaughterer? Li Xiang muttered to himself as he memorized the mission number.
Black Elephant was a true Level-2 Magician. Back when his strength was suppressed to Magic Apprentice, even Link had been unable to stop him. Now that he had recovered his full strength, he was even harder to deal with.
However, he had to get his hands on the Demon Set.
"What's a mission mark?" Li Xiang asked Villette in a low voice.
Villette rolled her eyes at him and replied, "A mission mark means that the higher-ups of the school in charge of the mission hall have already marked the target of the mission. As long as you accept the mission, you'll receive the corresponding mark and be able to easily lock onto the target's location. You won't have to search the streets for it."
"So that's how it is. No wonder his GPA reward is not high. It turns out that he is a turtle in a jar, a whetstone for the students to practice their skills." Li Xiang suddenly understood. He was still not sure whether Hei Xiang had really escaped from the tarot cards.
According to the usual practice, as an important holder of the Little Arcana card, he should not be so brazenly wandering around the border and killing people. The upper echelons of the tarot cards would not allow him to act so recklessly, but it was hard to say.
Li Xiang wasn't sure what was the difference between the current tarot cards and the ones from his previous life.
He was not in a hurry to accept the mission. He continued to scan the other images on the oil painting.
There was also a large amount of mission information that had already been completed. Soon, he found a few missions related to the Wayans. As if noticing Li Xiang's gaze, Villette glanced at them and was shocked by the content of the mission.
"This guy, in less than a month, he went out on eight missions! And the difficulty is not low. " Villette was one level older than the Wayans, but their abilities were about the same. They were both Level-2 Magicians, but she did not dare to go out on missions so frequently, especially with such difficulty.
Li Xiang nodded. "Yes, and without exception, the team was almost completely wiped out, and then the benefits were all his."
"You can't say that. When going out on a mission, strength is king. It is normal for there to be heavy casualties. He would not use the lives of his companions as stepping stones, right?" Villette subconsciously refused to think that way. If he really made a fortune from the dead, it would be too scary.
"The problem is that his eight missions, without exception, were all missions to kill mutants, but none of them were completed." Li Xiang paused and added, "I looked at it for so long. Among the missions of the same type, only his completion rate was not high, but he was able to come back alive. As for the other teams, if the enemies were not wiped out, then they were wiped out."
Mutants were different from normal creatures. After the battle at the border, he realized that this group of terrifying creatures killed indiscriminately. They would only stop when they had killed all their enemies.
"Maybe his ability to escape is especially strong?" Villette still did not want to think about the worst. "Even if your guess makes sense, the higher-ups in the mission hall should have realized it. Don't think too much. Have you found the mission you wanted?"
"Yes, A-4."
"Okay, wait a moment. I will go and report it." Villette did not think too much. It was normal for a strong freshman like Li Xiang to be willing to go on a few missions. After all, before she was beaten up by reality, she did not expect the missions to be so cruel.
When Villette walked to the front desk and told the beautiful receptionist the mission number, both her and the receptionist's expressions changed at the same time!
"This … This mission is recommended for a Level-2 Magician team. Senior Villette, are you really going to take two freshmen to complete it?" The receptionist was stunned and hesitantly returned the form to her.
This was too exaggerated. A Level-2 Magician taking two Level-2 Magician's Apprentices?
Villette's mouth twitched. She turned to look at Li Xiang and found that he had already walked to her side.
"No problem." Li Xiang nodded.
They were both Level-2 Magicians. No matter how weak Villette was, she would not be crushed by Black Elephant. Moreover, he had a trump card that specialized in countering Black Elephant.
The receptionist looked at Li Xiang in confusion and then at Villette.
She bit her lip and nodded.
After choosing the mission, Villette immediately sent the mission mark's data to Li Xiang. This way, they would be able to determine Black Elephant's approximate location through the communicator.
"Tell me, how confident are you in dealing with this guy?" Villette had a headache. She did not know where she got the courage to agree to deal with a Border Slaughterer with him and Shizuko Ise.
From the oil painting, this Border Slaughterer was bloodthirsty and had the ability to control corpses.
One on one, she had no confidence in winning at all.
"Fifty to sixty percent." Li Xiang did not dare to estimate too high. As long as Black Elephant was near City 0010, he could ask Hunter and Team 169 to deal with it. However, this hidden force was probably busy with something else that he had instructed them to do.
Villette was speechless. In the end, she sighed dejectedly. "Then when do you plan to leave? I'll say this first. If the opponent exceeds our expectations, I'll immediately give up on the mission and escape with you."
"Thank you, Senior. I plan to kill him when I go to deliver the goods at the end of the month. "Li Xiang grinned.
Villette's eyes lit up when she heard about the goods. "That's right. Let's see if we can get the general's help. As long as the border troops are willing to cooperate, our chances of winning will be much higher."
But after saying that, she sighed again.
She knew the general's temper very well. He had even captured and killed the rich second generations who ran back to the family. Why would he agree to help them so easily?
