Chapter 830
"coax!"
The whole hall seemed to be in an uproar. All the demon hunters looked at Jing Chen and others in awe, especially Jing Chen walking in front of them. They could never have imagined that this young man who didn't look big but had the honorary demon hunter token was actually the captain of the A-level demon hunter team.
Seeing Jing Chen and his friends slowly leaving, these demon hunters began to whisper and talk.
"Brother, I'm not mistaken? Just those children can get into the A-level demon hunting team? How is that possible!" A short and thin demon hunter looked at the burly man next to him with a big waist and a giant battle axe in surprise.
The big man glanced at the direction where Jing Chen and others left with awe, and whispered, "Hmph, what do you know? The young man in the lead probably already has the strength of a level five high-level. You didn't see that the captain of the wolf head did not have any resistance in his hands?" After saying that, there was a little more awe in his eyes.
The middle-aged man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks standing not far away sneered and said disdainfully, "Level 5 high-level? Big brother, don't you not know who that boy is? Jing Chen, do you know? That boy is Jing Chen!"
"Jing Chen?" The short and thin man looked at each other. They had just arrived at the Cologne Fortress yesterday and didn't know the situation here at all, but the name Jing Chen felt a little familiar.
Seeing the two of them looking unknown, the middle-aged man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks was also stunned. He looked at the two of them like a monster and said in surprise, "Aren't you? Even Jing Chen from Zeus Academy, doesn't even know? That's a real level six powerhouse, known as the youngest level six powerhouse in the mainland for thousands of years. You don't know?" After saying that, he glanced at the two of them again. In the eyes of middle-aged man, those who don't even know such a big thing may have come from a closed place, otherwise it would be impossible that he had never heard of Jing Chen's name.
"Level 6 strongman?"
"Jingchen?"
The two looked at each other again, and suddenly, they were both stunned, as if they had remembered something in an instant. They quickly turned their heads and asked the middle-aged man, "Jing Chen? Isn't Jing Chen from Zeus Academy dead? Why are he alive again?"
The middle-aged man was stunned by the two of them, and then looked at the two of them disdainfully and jokingly, "Then do you mean, the one you saw just now is a ghost? Don't blame me for not reminding you, just a little bit, otherwise the students in the Jing League of Zeus Academy will be heard by the students in the Jing League of Zeus Academy, be careful not to be able to eat." After saying that, the middle-aged man quickly walked out of the Free Demon Hunter Guild. In the past few days, many people have said something disrespectful to Jing Chen, and whenever these people are met by the students in the Jing League of Zeus Academy, they will inevitably be beaten up.
"Boss, what should we do? Jing Chen is not dead, what is the matter with the young master?" the short and thin man asked softly in the ear of the burly man.
"We can't do anything. If this kid hadn't been negligent at the beginning, I'm afraid you and I would have lived to this day. Moreover, the young master's body was not found in the clan. Maybe the young master is still alive, but we have to pass on the news that Jing Chen is not dead." The burly man's mind was meticulous, obviously not as rough as he looked on.
The short and thin man nodded, and the two of them quickly walked out of the Demon Hunter Guild and disappeared into the vast crowd.
"Dongzi, take them to the commercial street to replenish supplies first. I'll buy something and then go to find you later to contact the communicator." As he said that, Jing Chen shook the communicator in his hand. This was left to him by Jing Tian and Yue Lu before leaving. At that time, the two told Jing Chen that they could use it to contact him when they thought about them. Unfortunately, more than a year has passed, Jing Chen took out the communicator several times, but finally put it away in disappointment, and his parents seemed to have disappeared.
Although these demon hunting teams are powerful, they cannot be compared with the "Blood Evil Demon Hunting Group" in the local Cologne Fortress. This Blood Evil Demon Hunting Group is an old demon hunting group in Cologne City. Whether it is the time of the beast tide invasion or in peacetime, the main scope of the Blood Evil Demon Hunting Group is in several cities centered on Cologne City.
On this day, Jing Chen and his men came to the hall of the Free Demon Hunter Guild. Seeing Jing Chen's arrival, many demon hunters in the hall kept saying hello to Jing Chen and his men. If someone had laughed at these young men as rookies a year ago, if they were still alive, they would definitely swallow those words now. At this moment, the average strength of the demon hunting group where Jing Chen is located is also exceeding the level 4 high-level level, and Yue Yanran and Ling Xue have made breakthroughs in this year's actions, which has improved the overall level of the team a lot.
"Look, the guild has a new team mission."
As soon as Jing Chen entered the hall, he saw everyone moving to a difficult task release board. He saw that there were demon hunters at this moment, and everyone was pointing in front of the board while talking about something.
Jing Chen and others turned their heads and saw three people walking behind them. Along the way, all the demon hunters who saw them took the initiative to make way. The reason was that the three of them were wearing badges symbolizing the C-level Demon Hunting Squad on their chests. Even if they worked hard for a few years, they would be at most a D-level team. C-level teams like the C-level team can be counted with both hands in the entire city of Cologne, so it is no wonder that the people are so arrogant.
"Oh, the two girls are quite a signature. Are you interested in joining the uncle's demon hunting team? There is funding for the event." The middle-aged man in a ruffian manner, who was the leader of the three, asked, with his eyes naked wandering back and forth on Yue Yanran and Ling Xue, looking lustful, and even his saliva was about to flow out.
Ling Xue frowned slightly. She was the princess of the Holy Spirit Empire. She had been teased like this, but she did not move. Ling Xue, who was very familiar with the rules of the Demon Hunter Guild, also knew the rules here. No matter what the reason, those who took action here would be permanently expelled from the ranks of Demon Hunters. This is the rule.
"Look, the boys with wolf head are teasing those students again. I think these students will be expelled."
"I don't think so, have you seen it? Those are all top students from Zeus Academy. I guess even if I beat these wolf-headed boys, the guild would not come forward."
"Why can't you? Don't you know what happened yesterday? All the students from the Royal Academy of Holy Spirit have been fired. I guess these little guys can't do it either. The rules of the guild cannot be challenged."
Not far away, some demon hunters turned to this side from time to time, paying attention to the development of the situation and talking casually. The sound was neither too loud nor too small, and it could reach several people's ears.
The middle-aged man in the lead smiled obscenely, "What, you're afraid, you're going to be expelled from the guild for life when you use force here. Get out of the guild quickly!" He continued to walk forward because Yue Yanran and Ling Xue were standing behind, and they were about to be hit by the middle-aged man at this moment.
"Get out!" Jing Chen's body trembled and instantly appeared between the two women and the middle-aged man, staring at each other with cold eyes.
Seeing Jing Chen's strange speed, the middle-aged man was slightly stunned and then sneered, "Don't think you can do anything if you are strong. This is the Free Demon Hunter Guild, boy, do you understand the rules of the guild? Let me tell you again that if you use martial arts here, you will be expelled from the guild for life. Do you know?" As he said that, he came to Jing Chen and pointed at Jing Chen's chest.
The middle-aged man is short and thin. Judging from his vulgar appearance and the short sword hanging around his waist, he is obviously an assassin. However, he is not afraid of Jing Chen, a boy who is stronger than him no matter how hard he looks. After all, this is the Free Demon Hunter Guild. As long as he doesn't take action first, there will definitely be nothing wrong.
"Hmph!" Jing Chen snorted coldly, instantly grabbing the man's finger that came out.
"No..." Seeing that Jing Chen actually took action, Yue Yanran exclaimed in surprise and wanted to stop Jing Chen, but unfortunately it was too late. Jing Chen exerted a little force, and with a "click", the man's fingers instantly showed a strange bend, which was obviously broken.
"You...you dare to attack in the guild, guard! Come on guard! Someone here is hitting people!" The middle-aged man shouted regardless of his image. At this moment, Yue Yanran and Ling Xue had both arrived beside Jing Chen.
"Chen, why are you so impulsive!" Yue Yanran looked at Jing Chen and blamed her.
Jing Chen ignored Yue Yanran and Ling Xue who came beside him. A disdainful sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, and grabbed the middle-aged man's finger and tore it hard.
"Click!" With a loud noise, the middle-aged man's fingers were instantly torn off by Jing Chen. Now the middle-aged man who was originally calling a guard jumped three or four meters high. As the saying goes, ten fingers connect the heart. The pain of this finger being pulled away by Jing Chen is not something that ordinary people can tolerate. Even the middle-aged man did not expect that Jing Chen was so cruel.
"What's wrong with you?" Several people wearing the costumes of the staff of the Free Demon Hunter Guild ran over. They were the guards here, specializing in rectifying those unruly demon hunters. Especially in the past few days, those old fried dough sticks who were hiding in the market often clashed with students participating in the war in various academies, which made them anxious for a while.
Seeing the guard arrive, the vulgar middle-aged man hurriedly pointed his other hand at Jing Chen, "Several adults, look, this kid openly injured me here, look, my finger is still in that kid's hand." As he said that, he handed his bloody hand to several guards.
The few people were stunned. Although many students had conflicts with these demon hunters in the past few days, they did not cause any bloodshed incidents. Most of them just warn them. But this time there was a bloodshed incident. This was not just a warning. Thinking of this, the few people looked up at Jing Chen.
Jing Chen smiled slightly, held the broken finger in his hand, and murmured coldly, "Since your master doesn't know how to cherish you, then let you go." As he said that, a black light flashed between his fingers, and the broken finger instantly turned into nothingness.
"You...!" Seeing that Jing Chen had completely ignored him and knew that they were so arrogant when they came, the faces of the guards became much ugly. Although the wolf-headed captain had long been notorious, Jing Chen actually didn't even give him the face of him. He wanted to favor Jing Chen's guards, and immediately rushed up and attacked.
Suddenly, a silver light flashed, and Jing Chen had a small silver sign on his hand. He saw that the sign was engraved with the emblem of the Free Demon Hunter Guild. As the silver light shone, the entire guild hall lit up. Obviously, the material of this small sign is not an ordinary thing.
"Hmph, boy, don't think you will be spared by taking out a broken sign. Let me tell you, today the uncle must watch you be removed from the guild." The middle-aged man said viciously. Unfortunately, he did not notice the eyes of the guards on the side. At this moment, the guards were stunned at first, and then the anger on their faces disappeared instantly, and the eyes of Jing Chen were also a little more awe.
"Sir, we were rude just now." A guard who looked like a manager came to Jing Chen and bowed to apologize to Jing Chen.
"You...you guys will give me justice! How can you Demon Hunter Guild violate the rules you set!" Seeing the performance of several guards, the man shouted in a mad manner.
"The Honorable Demon Hunter enjoys immunity, which is also the rule of our guild." A somewhat cold voice sounded. Everyone turned their heads and saw that it was the middle-aged young woman who was originally sitting in the lobby manager's position.
"Honor Demon Hunter? Impossible. How could he be an honor Demon Hunter at such a young age? Impossible. I don't believe that your Demon Hunter Guild is a liar!" The middle-aged man roared, and as he said, he was about to rush over to grab the token in Jing Chen's hand.
"Bang!"
With a muffled sound, Jing Chen flew up and mentioned the middle-aged man's chest. The middle-aged man's body was kicked out like a ball, but Jing Chen did not kill him. After all, this is the Demon Hunter Guild. Even if he has this honorary Demon Hunter Token, he can exempt some rules, but he cannot go too far.
"Pull it out, from today on the Wolf-Headed Demon Hunter Team will be removed from the list." After saying that, he smiled slightly, nodded at Jing Chen, and turned around and left.
"Yes! President." Several guards responded in unison, and then pushed out several people, including the middle-aged man.
Seeing this scene, many demon hunters who were just talking about Jing Chen and others who would definitely be removed from the list closed their mouths. Even the president of the Demon Hunter Branch of Cologne City should respect them. It is not something they can provoke. If you lose a bad job, it is a trivial matter. Maybe you will even cause a murder.
After glanced at the awe-inspiring eyes in the hall, Jing Chen didn't say anything and came to the promotion window alone.
"I want to advance to the Demon Hunter Team." Looking inside the window, the pretty woman was still looking at him in a daze. Jing Chen sighed helplessly and had to repeat it again.
"Ah? Oh... OK, I'll do it for you right away." As he said that, he quickly filled out the application form.
"Sir, congratulations to your team for becoming the A-level Demon Hunter Squad in our guild. This is the badge for you and your companions. Please hold it away." After saying that, he handed Jing Chen six badges shining with a faint silver light. This badge is completely different from the gray badges that most demon hunters wear on their chests. As the silver light shines, a strong bloody aura instantly emerges from the badge.
"Boss, it seems that there is a new task over there." Anton pointed to the direction of the taskbar. In the past few months, the S-level tasks on the taskbar have been completed by several people. Although it is a "s"-level task, the S-level tasks in wartime are very different from those in peacetime.
This task issued by the Free Demon Hunter Guild in Wartime will be subsidized by the Holy Spirit Empire, so the reward is much higher than the reward of the corresponding level tasks in normal times. In order not to confuse the demon hunters, the level of all tasks issued during wartime will be automatically increased by one level.
Of course, this is also a good thing that can only happen in wartime. It is not in ordinary times. The Free Demon Hunter Guild is not Guangjitang. You will definitely not be able to do a loss-making business. Because Jing Chen and the others are just A-level demon hunting teams, they can now receive S-level tasks.
"Yeah." Jing Chen nodded, glanced at the other side, and said to Fording, "I will go to Dongzi and I to hand over the mission later. You can go there to see what mission is. If it is suitable for us, then next."
Ferding nodded and walked towards the bulletin board. This was a tacit understanding that several people had already cooperated. Ling Su was responsible for watching and driving away those brave men who wanted to be unfavorable to Yue Yanran and Ling Xue, while Ferding was generally responsible for taking on tasks suitable for the team.
He came to the dispatching position again. At this moment, the fair-skinned man was still on duty. The man looked up and saw that it was Jing Chen and Anton, so he hurriedly changed into a kind look. Since Jing Chen taught the wolf-head captain a lesson in public one year ago, there were rumors the next day that all three people in the wolf-head team were mysteriously missing.
Although the three of them have always been not very good and have many enemies in the city, because they have a close relationship with the "Blood Evil" of the largest demon hunting group in Cologne, no one dares to deal with them. However, the three of them disappeared after a conflict with Jing Chen and others. This made people look suspiciously on Jing Chen and the others, especially Jing Chen. Thinking about Jing Chen's ruthless methods that day at the Demon Hunter Guild, and thinking about Jing Chen's strength, all of this may have been answered.
Of course, Jing Chen and others did not respond to this matter, and the attitude of the Blood Demon Hunter Group was also very ambiguous, so the matter ended up being aborted. The man, as a staff member of the Demon Hunter Guild, obviously knew about this matter. Since then, whenever the man saw Jing Chen and others, he would show an almost flattering smile. Although the smile would make Jing Chen and others a little disgusted every time he saw that smiled, as the saying goes, he would not hit people with a smile.
The man smiled and said, "Young Master Jing, are you here to hand in the mission again today?"
"Yeah." Jing Chen responded without comment. This guy who is neither a man nor a woman nor a woman is not a woman. He didn't know where the Demon Hunter Guild found the weirdo. Every time he saw it, Jing Chen felt nauseous.
"Please '2', the master is waiting inside." As he said that, the man stood up and made a gesture of invitation.
Jing Chen ignored the man and took Anton to push the door and walked into Room 2.
"Master, I'll hand in the task." When I pushed the door in, Jing Chen's original cold face had already been put away. Most of Jing Chen's tasks were handed in this room No. 2, and after a while, he naturally had feelings for the old man. So whenever he got here, he would come here to sit even if he didn't hand in the task.
The old man smiled slightly, "I said who it is? It turns out to be Xiaochen. What wind has blown you, please sit down, please sit down." He said that, and he got up and poured a cup of tea for Jingchen and Anton himself.
The word "tea" was only known by Jing Chen after hearing from the old man that the old man was not from the Holy Spirit Empire, but from the West of the mainland. However, the old man had never said the specific place, and the tea was brewed with the leaves of specially treated plants. The old man said that after the leaves of these fresh plants were picked, they had to be baked in a special way to finally get the tea.
Drinking the tea that emitted a faint fragrance, Jing Chen said, "Master, this mission is another S-level, Man Bull King." He pointed to the ground with a silver light flashed, and a concrete and powerful Man Bull King's body appeared in the house.
The old man held his glasses and slowly walked to the Manniu King, checked it carefully, and kept praising, "Xiaochen, your strength is getting stronger and stronger. Are you going to break through quickly..."
Jing Chen, who was originally drinking tea, suddenly changed his expression. The old man also noticed his slip of the tongue and hurriedly said, "Xiao Chen, I have no other intentions. Look at this neat wound, it has improved a lot compared to before, so I asked this, don't mind."
Jing Chen's eyes were fixed, and he smiled slightly, "Master is overthinking, why would I mind? It's about to break through." Jing Chen seemed to say casually. The old man didn't say anything more. It was like a coroner in this industry. Experienced people can guess how this monster died just by looking at the wound. However, there is a rule in this industry, and it is most taboo to ask some things that should not be known.
After all, everyone has their own moves, and asking randomly can easily bring disaster to themselves. Originally, the old man would not make such a mistake, but every time the monsters brought by Jing Chen and his men would have traces of being severely hit by blunt weapons on his body. But this time, it was cut open at the neck. This wound was not something that ordinary people could do. Jing Chen was the only one who could do this in the team that watched Jing Chen, so the old man was so surprised.
A twelve-year-old boy who broke through to achieve a level 6 powerhouse is already very terrifying. If this young man only took a year to break through to the level 6 intermediate level, if such news is released, I am afraid that some powerful people on the mainland who have long been hidden will have to come out and walk around. For Jing Chen, this is definitely not a good thing, and the old man figured this out, so he kept silent.
The air in the room was a little dull. Anton, who had been drinking tea, raised his eyebrows and suddenly said, "Master, what task is hanging in the taskbar outside? When we came, we saw many people around there."
The old man was stunned, then glanced at Anton with a little gratitude and smiled, "That is the newly released S-level team task of the guild. The reward is very generous. Are you not interested in participating?"
After hearing the old man's words, Jing Chen and Anton were both stunned. After spending so long, they had been in the Demon Hunter Guild of Cologne fortress. This was the first time that a team task was released. Although most of these tasks did not have any rewards such as property. However, the points rewarded by those who participated in the task were very considerable, so many people would participate. At that time, they would get large points based on their contribution to the task, which was also the fastest way to improve individual and team levels.
"Boss, let's go and take it too? Ling Su and I and others are almost enough to apply for a C-level Demon Hunter. By then, we can also enjoy the benefits of the guild like you." Anton looked at Jing Chen with a eager expression.
Jing Chen's eyes narrowed, and a light of interest flashed in his eyes. He asked the old man, "Master, what is the content of that mission? Why do you have to organize it into a team mission? Can't you finish it even if you hand it over to the Demon Hunting Group?" Jing Chen's thoughts were far from comparable to Anton. When he was in Yuelei City, he had seen this team mission once. The scale of hundreds of people was not easy to complete. Maybe the mission was not completed and he would lose his life.
The old man pondered for a moment and said slowly, "This beast tide in the mountain range has been invading for more than a year. The people in our guild have been looking for ways to retreat through various methods. After observations by our guild people over the past year, they found that although there are few monsters in other places, they have high strength. However, our side has a large number, but their strength is average. This alternative phenomenon is a bit strange, so the guild sent a lot of people to investigate. Unexpectedly, this investigation really made them discover something, and this mission is to cooperate with the guild to do something. As for what, I don't know."
Chapter completed!
