Chapter 43 The Price of Absenteeism
The ship arrived at the port.
Before Ye Hua got off the boat, the new priest Arotan told him about the mission, and took out a map for him, marking the location of the Blood Scale Tribe. It turned out that their location was on an island 20 nautical miles southeast of the coast of Bone Town. Even driving a small fishing boat was not difficult, which was much more convenient.
After getting off the boat, Ye Hua took Lao Gus to Barbato's research institute first. Barbato did not come back. It was probably because his deal with Bruns was messed up because of the war and he was looking for other business partners.
Since Babato was not here, Ye Hua temporarily asked Lao Gus to settle here and look for other places in the future.
After entering the house, Old Gus looked around, and seemed to be very satisfied with the short roof. Only when the house was short could make the dwarf feel tall! Old Gus nodded with satisfaction and said, "This town is very quiet, this house is also very good, it is suitable for seclusion! I will live here in the future!"
System prompt: [You complete the 'Old Gus's Deadly Escape' mission and obtain 120,000 experience points, and you lose the title of 'Public Enemy of the World (temporary)'.]
【Congratulations on your rise to level 30.】
Oh, the mission is completed, the damn title has finally disappeared, and the reputation is normal, but what else is wrong?
Ye Hua asked, "Are you planning to stay?"
Old Gus nodded: "Yes."
Ye Hua said crazy: "Damn it! This is not my house! You can't move in casually! No, even my house cannot move in casually!"
Old Gus spread his hands and said helplessly: "Oh, since you said that, I have to go with you for a while until you find a new residence that will satisfy me."
Damn! This is a rogue! Why was he slapped?... Ye Hua suddenly remembered another important thing, slapped his forehead and shouted: "By the way! Didn't you say that there will be a lot of rewards for completing the task? What about the rewards?"
Old Gus wondered: "Isn't the experience value a lot?"
Ye Hua knocked his palm and shouted in anger: "I'm talking about money! It's money! It's not experience, do you understand?"
Old Gus stretched out his palm and said, "Do you have money? Lend me a gold coin first, which has a direct relationship with the reward you give."
Although he didn't understand the direct relationship between borrowing money and rewards, he always encountered strange tasks these days. Without thinking too much, Ye Hua took out a gold coin and handed it to Lao Gus, and then looked at him expectantly.
Under Ye Hua's anticipational gaze, Lao Gesdan returned the newly borrowed gold coins and said, "Congratulations on completing the task and receiving the reward of 1 gold coins. Just say it casually. When I become rich in the future, I will definitely return the money I borrowed from you."
"Damn it!" Ye Hua was really anxious and even sweared. If it weren't for the valuable gold coins, he would have really wanted to smash the gold coins in his hand on Lao Gus' bald head to see if he could make a hole and use it as a piggy bank.
Reason stopped Ye Hua in time. Not to mention that PK in the town will attract guards. Even if he fights one-on-one, he will not be the opponent of Old Gus. Although Old Gus is less than 1/3 of Ye Hua's size, but he is at that level. It's hard to say whether he can knock him down with 10 Ye Huas together... Since he can't be tough, then just make sense...
After that, Ye Hua spent half an hour, from preaching reasoning to presenting facts, presenting facts to the legal system, preaching the legal system to discuss human rights, human rights to history, history to talk about life, life to be a hooligan, playing gangster, pretending to be grandson, pretending to be grandson, and boobs... After all, Ye Hua found that he could not even get rid of Lao Ges!
The bullshit tactic, once claimed that "the world's martial arts are only unbreakable!", failed. Ye Hua felt that his whole life was denied and he parted with tears in despair.
Ye Hua ran out of the house, wiped away his tears, thinking that he would love to live, and let’s talk about what happened next when Babato comes back... Alas, let’s take a step by step...
Since I returned to the Bone Town, of course, if I registered at the command post, I had not registered for two days. Last time I was just a small job and was punished to guard the city gate for 5 hours. What punishment would I have if I absent from work for two days this time? Keep the city gate for 8 hours or 10 hours?
No matter what, Ye Hua was ready in his heart. At worst, he could give some bribes to the sect official and settle the matter. Anyway, he still had more than 80 gold coins on his body. (The combat reserve fund for the Babato mission was 300 gold from the rest.)
Defense command post.
"Big stick! How dare you absent from work for two days! Do you still have organization and discipline in your eyes? Bar, bar, bar, bar..." Guderian pointed at Ye Hua's nose and scolded him, saliva sprayed his face.
Ye Hua calmly wiped the saliva splashed on his face, looking indifferent. He had been scolded many times and had been used to it.
"What's your attitude?" Guderian became even more angry when he saw Ye Hua's indifferent look. He laughed in anger and said, "Okay! OK! OK! It seems that if you don't teach you a lesson, you won't recognize your mistakes at all! From today on, you have been suspended! You are punished to think about your mistakes at home! When will you realize your mistakes and when will you be transferred back to the command post!"
Ye Hua still looked indifferent and thought to himself: Isn’t it just going home for two days? It just happened to be absent from work openly. Even if he wanted to come back, wouldn’t he be able to admit his mistake?
Guderian continued: "During the suspension period, you will no longer be the guard of the command post! The militia status must be temporarily cancelled! And I will restrict you from reforming within 10 days, otherwise... Humph, you will be officially fired! You will also be taken back when you lend your barracks!"
Wow!! Don't play like this!? Ye Hua was anxious and quickly admitted his mistake. Unfortunately, he said all the good things, but Guderian just couldn't listen and waved his hand to ask Ye Hua to go out! It seems that the method of admitting the mistake is not working at all, and he has to find other ways to solve it.
Alas... Let's go first, anyway, there are 10 days, so you should be able to find a solution... Ye Hua left in disappointment, but he didn't expect that as soon as his feet stepped out of the command post, a system prompt came:
[Warning! According to the Punishment Regulations, your occupation has changed to "Desergeant (temporary)" and the specific content of this occupation. Please check the game description.]
Ye Hua knew that in some cases, players' professions would undergo temporary changes. For example, he remembered that there was a dungeon of the arena. No matter what profession players, after entering, the professions would become gladiators, a profession that could not be obtained under normal circumstances.
Of course, there are good and bad ways to obtain temporary professions, such as the two temporary professions of the pastoral profession, God's Chosen and Fallen Pastor. The first one is a temporary profession that exchanges the reputation of the main church, and the second one is a temporary profession that is imposed on the negative number of reputation values.
After obtaining temporary, the characteristics of the profession will undergo great changes, with both enhancement and weakness. Generally speaking, it can still maintain a balance, and there will be no super strong or super weak, just like changing a profession.
But what is deserter? Is there such a temporary profession? Ye Hua had never heard of any deserter in his previous life. He opened the career description in confusion to check it.
Deserter profession characteristics:
1. Fighting: The basic movement speed increases by 20%, the physical strength reduction rate decreases by 50% when moving at full speed, and the effect decreases by 100% when affected by the restrained state.
2. Give up resistance: When using all types of equipment, the effect will be reduced by 30%, but it will not be affected by any type of disarming or armor-breaking effects.
(Note: Please refer to the skill effect of the same name in wow.)
3. Coward: When affected by all kinds of fear states, the negative effect increases by 100%. When in a fear state, you can freely control the direction of movement, but you still cannot attack, defend, use items, etc.
(Note: Skills with fear effects include warriors' battle cry, hunters' traps, mage's spells, etc.)
(Note: The fear state is similar to the fear technique of the wow warlock. If it is not removed, it will only run around. With the cowardly feature, the player can freely control movement, but other operations are still not allowed.)
Go! Is this a combat profession? This is a running profession! What are the benefits of being able to run? The content of this game is mainly based on combat. If the character's combat power decreases, isn't it equivalent to becoming a useless person? This time I will definitely not be able to bear it!
Ye Hua turned around and wanted to rush back to the command post to find Guderian to theory, but unfortunately he was intercepted by the veteran at the door and said he would not let him in.
Ye Hua had no choice but to spend 10 silver coins to buy a bottle of luminous wine like he did when he entered the command post for the first time, and as a bribe, he would put it in for the veteran and let him put it in.
Unfortunately, the veteran did not give way after taking the bribe, but persuaded: "Young man, tell you the truth. The sir is very angry, and the consequences are very serious! You must never enter the command post until you let the sir get angry!"
Ye Hua was anxious and shouted, "Damn it! I can't even get in the door, how can I let him breathe?"
The veteran looked around and saw no one noticed it, and leaned into Ye Hua's ear and whispered: "The chief is in a bad mood recently, because the barbarian tribes around the town are not very excited, and they have been coming to the neighborhood to mess up recently. The fishermen and farmers have suffered considerable losses. If this situation continues, the barbarian tribe who is more and more promising may threaten the safety of our town...
The commander repeatedly asked the mayor to report the situation to the superiors so that the superiors could send regular troops to clear out the barbarian tribes, but the bastard mayor only considers his own political achievements and firmly disagrees with reporting the situation! If you can find a way to solve this problem, I think the commander will definitely forgive you. Also, don't let people know that I told you this..."
Oh! There is indeed a task! There are only weak things like fishman and dog-headed people near the Bone Town. It is a good thing to clear them to ease their relationship with Guderian! Ye Hua nodded quickly and agreed: "As an honorary town citizen and a member of the command post, I must contribute to the safety of the town and relieve the trouble for the superior!"
