"Hahaha, Lord Andre, we won't let your busy work go in vain!" Edward said with a smile, his little eyes looked sincere, but they still showed a bit of discomfort.
Feng Zhan could tell that there was definitely something else in this kid's eyes, but he didn't say anything. Instead, he smiled very generously and said, "It's all for nothing. I, Andre, have always been helping others in the world." "Happy, good at charity..." I said it without blushing at all.
Of course, the three noble masters are not used to anything. We are all nobles. If we don't have a thick skin, how can we come out to hang out? The next thing will be much simpler. Naturally, we will bargain and then further confirm. That’s all.
Things seemed to be going very smoothly. At noon, Feng Zhan politely declined Edward's invitation to stay for lunch and went straight back to his residence. At the gate of the palace, Feng Zhan looked apologetic and sighed frequently. , and the three of them also looked like they were sighing, extremely reluctant to part. Anyway, everyone did their best and chatted for half an hour before they finally separated.
Watching Feng Zhan leave, Olia, who had a bad temper, said, "Sir Edward, is the price you paid this adventurer too high? This kid is a little greedy. I really want to...", Fist He held it tightly, obviously wanting to do something.
However, before Edward could speak, Osana had already spoken, "Brother, calm down, Lord Edward. Of course, Lord Edward has his considerations, so you don't need to say anything!"
Edward, who just looked at Feng Zhan's retreating back, still kept a smile and said lightly, "Isn't greed a good thing? It's the original sin of mankind. As long as there are enough benefits, they will be willing to do anything. , even if it’s betraying their god, isn’t it!?”
Edward's words immediately made the two old nobles laugh, but they just laughed silently with their mouths wide open, without making any sound. They looked very scary, even though their expressions were still so plain, they still laughed. Unable to change such a terrible emotion, Edward turned around and returned to the palace.
…
Feng Zhan didn't know what was happening behind him. After all, it had nothing to do with him anymore, because at this time, he was seriously looking at the mission he got from Edward. The reward was very generous, but the difficulty of the mission was so-so. , say big, say small, that's all.
Mission: Eradicate the Clown Association
Mission Difficulty: S+
Task type: ordinary task
Mission statement: About three years ago, Greenland City was just a well-developed seaport city. Although it was not small, compared with other giant seaport cities, it was still a small guy with hundreds of thousands of people. The city looks very small, but those seaport cities with millions or even tens of millions are not a handful in the Lohia Holy Empire, let alone other empires whose main development direction is the sea. With the start of the war in the New World, Greenland City has ushered in a wave of development opportunities. Of course, this is also due to the distance from the entry and exit points of the New World, as well as the harbor suitable for development, and other factors. In just three years, this city has taken on a new look. It is also in these short three years that this city, which originally had a population of hundreds of thousands, has become an even bigger city with a population of one million. However, as the population grows, the city The extremely large scale has also caused this city, which is ominous but peaceful enough, to face many problems, and the public security in it has been seriously challenged. Just a year ago, I don’t know where it came from. A group of clowns came, and they didn't attract anyone's attention at first. But three months after they arrived, they planned a very large operation and assassinated one-tenth of the nobles in the city. , it only took one night, but they were not discovered on the second day. They assassinated one-tenth of the nobles again, and they were still not discovered until the third day, when they were about to repeat their same trick. , but they encountered a tough situation. After losing nearly half of their manpower, they still failed to kill enough nobles. More importantly, half of their manpower was lost in attacking Edward's castle. That The night can be said to be thrilling, but the specific details are not known. After dawn, when Edward planned to find those clowns and summoned the nobles of the entire city, he found that there were more than one-fifth of the nobles. , had been slaughtered long ago. All signs showed that it was those clowns who did it, but Edward did not dare to speak out, lest the whole city panic. Although these clowns were killing nobles, God knows when they would show up to them. The civilians took action, so they began to quietly eliminate the clowns, but the effect was not very good. Thousands of people were lost, nearly ten thousand people, but they only eliminated a few clowns. On the contrary, as time went by, those clowns were killed. The number of clowns is increasing. From the original few hundred, it has grown to nearly 5,000 in nearly a year. Regardless of whether these clowns have received support or recruited local people, anyway, The number has become too large, but during this period of time, they have not given up assassinating the nobles here. Although they are no longer as unscrupulous as before, they can kill one-tenth of the nobles at once, but every few days , there will be a few unlucky ones who will be succeeded by them, so that the entire noble group is very frightened. However, it is not an option to continue like this, but because Edward is angry with some nobles, he just won't find other nobles to do it. The foreign aid has been delayed in this way until now, but it is time to solve it. Otherwise, maybe at some point, all the nobles in Greenland City will be solved by those clowns, which will be a big trouble.
Mission goal: Find the clowns in Greenland City and kill them without leaving any one behind.
Mission progress: 0/5741
Mission rewards: Edward's friendship, tax-free business rights in Greenland City, monopoly rights to franchised goods in Greenland City, and the right to station a small corps.
Wealth reward: 2,000,000 initially, and 300,000 for each clown killed.
Experience reward: 10,000,000 initially, and 5,000,000 for each clown killed.
Failure penalty: The relationship with Duke Edward, the lord of Greenland City, immediately deteriorates. He is called Edward's enemy. He permanently loses the right to do business in Greenland City and is permanently unable to enter Greenland City.
Note: The Edward family, the lords of Greenland City, is a family with a long history. The time they ruled Greenland City can be traced back to the early days of the establishment of the Holy Empire of Lohia. At that time, Edward's ancestors, for unknown reasons and conditions, , and what kind of incident happened. He made contributions to the Holy Empire of Lohia and was directly made a Duke by His Majesty the founding emperor at that time. However, the ancestor of Edward, who had made unimaginable contributions, But he did not choose to stay in the imperial capital, or find an extremely fertile land to make his own fiefdom. Instead, he came to this seemingly distant seaside and established a Greenland City to thrive. However, after so many years, the emperors had no idea about Edward. The favor of the family has never declined. This will inevitably make some people jealous and make many enemies appear. This also makes it impossible for Edward to find out in detail who is dealing with him, so he can only choose to solve it. The clown was in trouble, and at the same time he had no way to seek outside help, because he couldn't tell clearly whether this was his enemy, and Feng Zhan, an adventurer with a clean family and sufficient status and power, became his best The choice is also the only choice. Originally, Edward had no such plan. Even after Feng Zhan came here, he just regarded him as a passerby. After all, even if he had a little reputation in the New World, he would not know about it when he spread to the Old World. What has become of you? Although Edward has heard about it, he has never seen it, so how can he easily believe it? But what a coincidence, a little misunderstanding allowed Edward to see your strength. It seems It's very short, but it's enough for people like Edward to find out. Now that I know your strength, I can naturally give you this medium-sized task. The rewards are very generous and the punishment is not small. Of course, Yingwu Young man, you have to remember that Edward's family has a lot of influence in the Lohia Holy Empire, and it also has a lot of say in Alfred. Once your mission fails, you can't Just a written punishment is as simple as that, but it will cause a lot of invisible harm to you. Young man, please be careful and work hard to complete the task!
The rewards are indeed very generous, but the punishments and the difficulty of the tasks are not small. Not only the ones marked, after all, it has been so long. With the power of a duke, he was not able to solve those in almost a year. The clown, on the other hand, needs to let a guy like himself, a passerby, come forward to complete the task at this time. It looks like this guy is hiding something, but looking at the guy's appearance, if he doesn't agree, he might come. As soon as the scene of five hundred swordsmen and axe-hands appeared, it really hurt me a bit, huh, but he, Feng Zhan, is not easy to bully. He is still his duty as a player when he accepts a mission. However, later, If we don't increase the price for this kid, then Feng Zhan will be out and about for nothing. After all, he is still a lord, and he is not a duke.
Along the way, he rushed towards his own territory, feeling somewhat pleased with himself. This Edward really gave himself a good excuse. He could use a task to delay it, and what about the time of this task? They can be very long, ranging from a few months to half a year, or even longer. It’s simply perfect!
Even if he faced the pointing fingers of those ignorant NPCs along the way, Feng Zhan didn't care anymore, because he was in a good mood, and the whole world seemed to bloom in an instant. If he didn't have to worry about his image, he would probably be able to do it now. Let's sing out loud.
It took almost two hours for Feng Zhan to return to his underground city. However, he still missed lunch time, and the others did not wait for him. They had already finished eating and went to take a lunch break, which made Feng Zhan a little disappointed. , not being able to tell them such good news is really a big regret in life, but think about it, there is still dinner time, when I announce the good news then, I will definitely be able to give everyone a little surprise, hehe , Feng Zhan is also a lord, doesn’t he have such a level of creating surprises and surprises? ?
Thinking of this, the leftovers in my mouth felt even more delicious, as if I had never eaten anything more delicious than this.
