Chapter 179 This Is Called Wisdom, You Know a Basket!
A group of people were sitting dejectedly in the rest area of the Mercenary Association. They were waiting for Betsy to come back, who had gone to complete the last step of the formalities. After being silent for a long time, Nangong Wuyue couldn't help but poked Hao Ren in the arm: "Landlord, I think it's not too late for us to change the name now."
Hao Ren looked at the documents in his hand with a grimace. He had been mentally wrestling with these registration forms for nearly an hour, and now he didn't want to move at all: "If you want to change it, you can change it, I really can't think of it." When giving a name, you cannot use pure numbers, you cannot use special symbols, you cannot use the names of dignitaries, royal names, administrative agencies, and actual place names of the Kingdom of Horleta. Even "Hey, I can go here" has been taken. What else can we name it?"
Vivian held her head and said: "It can't really be called 'a dog has a good name', I think it's embarrassing to say it out."
The vampire girl who has always boasted of her noble bloodline now feels that she is experiencing one of the biggest stains in her life, which is that from today on, she is the chief battle mage of the "mercenary group with such a good name that it makes dogs think of it". This She had the urge to dig a hole and bury Hao Ren: it was Ya who gave him this unfortunate name.
"But the amazing thing is that this name can actually be used." Lily was the only one at the scene who was not under any psychological pressure. She even felt that the name gave her an inexplicable sense of honor. "I thought they must be using uncommon words to deny it." The reason for using it was rejected, but in the end, it was actually allowed to be registered. In fact, the name is quite good, which means that we have a good name. I feel as if I have become the leader of the group..."
"Nonsense, you also know that you are a dog," Vivian glared at Lily, "If you didn't know better, you would have thought you gave me this name."
That's right, as many people have already thought, in the end, these inconspicuous guys gave their team a performance art-like name - of course there are some reasons, besides the fact that they really can't think of a good name. The temporary nature of the mercenary group was also an important reason, and Hao Ren was even more determined when he saw the pink rabbit mercenary group that successfully slayed the dragon and the family fortune mercenary group that defeated the devil in the mercenary association's brochure. He has the mentality of "it's easy to make a living with a low reputation".
I don’t know what the evil dragon and a certain demon king who were killed back then felt like before they died. Perhaps the most fatal blow they suffered was when the two mercenary groups announced their names.
"Hey, I've been waiting for a long time!" Betsy's voice woke everyone up from their thoughts. The mercenary girl ran to Hao Ren and the others happily, "All registrations have been completed, now you can... Hey, why are you so depressed? "
"Nonsense, don't you think there's something wrong with the name 'Good names are even given to dogs'?" Nangong Wuyue looked at Betsy and didn't understand how this local girl could still be so happy: you know she was a new mercenary group in name. consultant is here.
"Hey, it's just a name. There are people with any name these days. If you really choose 'Silver Hand', you'll be laughed at for being unoriginal." Betsy waved her hand, "Come on, you can go to the mission information office now and ask. It’s about Beinz Blood Lake. There have been a lot of accidents there recently, so only teams can go there.”
It seems that the locals in this world really don't care about the name of the mercenary group...
Hao Ren and the others cheered up and went to the mission information desk. Their curiosity about the Beinz Blood Lake finally made them stop thinking about the unfortunate name for the time being. The clerk at the Mission Information Office was a stiff-eyed woman who seemed to be quiet. When she heard that another team had come to inquire about the situation of Beinz Blood Lake, she couldn't help showing an impatient expression: "Another batch of people. Those who think about getting lucky...don’t even look to see if they will be lucky enough to come back.”
Hao Ren didn't care what she said, he just smiled and handed over the newly registered certificate to the other party. Then he heard an unexpected news: "The junior team that just registered? No, you can't go, and you won't be issued a pass."
"Why can't you go?!" Betsy was the first to shout, "Didn't there be a lot of mercenaries who formed a temporary team to explore in the past two days?"
"It's because there are so many cases like this that the higher-ups issued an emergency order to prohibit the junior team from causing trouble," the woman with dead fish eyes said in a stiff voice, "These past two days have been just idle mercenaries trying to get lucky. Register a team and dare to go to the Blood Lake. Some of them are beaten back by demons on the way before they arrive. This is for your own good. There are dangerous areas around the Blood Lake, and you have to go through those areas to be the same as you usually are. It’s different to play against Qiu Feng from the outside. Without teamwork and team building experience, you’ll die if you go in.”
The fish-eyed woman's tone was not polite, but it was because she was upset because she had been repeating these words for the past two days. Hao Ren knew that what she said was probably all details, but he didn't want to give up: "Then what? Talent..."
"You are now a level 5 team, personal level does not count. At least upgrade to level 4."
In other words: If the professional qualification certificate is not up to standard, the job certificate will not be given!
Hao Ren didn't expect that the other world would encounter this kind of situation where a third-level fitter couldn't get a second-level salary. "Reality" was indeed a bad game that made people embarrassed everywhere. He asked Betsy in a low voice: "How do you calculate this level 4 and level 5 mercenary? You might as well explain all the levels. I'm confused about this."
"It is divided into individual and team levels. In both classification methods, level five is the lowest and level one is the highest. Above that are honorary titles that only those who have made extraordinary contributions are canonized by the royal family or the church. For a team, it is easier to upgrade from level five to level four. , just do twenty tasks. The requirements for upgrading from level 4 to level 3 are much higher. Upgrading from level 3 to level 2 requires not only task assessment, but also vocational skills qualification reexamination and political review organized by governments of various countries. Upgrading from level 2 to level 1 also requires examinations. Three general foreign languages and a written test on military strategy, a written test on chivalry and dogma, and an interview on personal integrity. In short, in addition to being able to fight, you must also have a top-notch ideological outlook to be called an ace mercenary. The personal assessment is similar, with details The items are slightly different. I passed the political examination back then, but I failed the written test on chivalry and the personal accomplishment interview, and I’m still stuck at Level 2.”
Hao Ren looked dumbfounded and cursed in his heart: Reality is indeed a bad game. Upgrading a mercenary is really the same as taking a professional title test! You're already in another world, can't you tell me honestly where to kill and how many to kill? It might be easier to take the civil service exam than to get promoted to this professional title!
"What would happen if we went directly to Blood Lake without that pass?" Hao Ren tried to ask. He was not a person who didn't know how to adapt. At this time, he naturally wanted to take advantage of the loopholes.
"You'd better not think wrong. It's better to say that other places are better. Beinz Blood Lake is a holy land - although it has not reached the level of a restricted area, the current situation is special. There are definitely a lot of Order Knights and Kingdom Knights there," Betsy glanced at Hao Ren, "If you don't have a pass, you will get into a lot of trouble, and it will be even more trouble if you are regarded as a heretic who is here to cause trouble."
"Twenty tasks... just complete twenty tasks and get rid of the novice stage, right?" Hao Ren asked the fish-eyed woman behind the counter, and got a positive answer.
"What about publishing tasks? What is the process?"
"Just do it here. For simple tasks, you can submit the task request on the spot and deposit the reward here in advance. The minimum reward is one guinea and the maximum is unlimited. If the task reward exceeds ten guineas, one-tenth of the association commission will be levied. From Gena down, all will be paid to the mercenaries without any handling fees. Of course, don’t expect anyone to accept a task that pays too little, just weigh it yourself. Do you want to issue a task?”
Hao Ren turned to Betsy: "I'll lend you a gina."
"One? That's okay..." Betsy took out a coin and handed it to Hao Ren in confusion.
Hao Ren slapped the small piece of metal on the counter: "Publish a task to find someone. The reward is one gina. Find a girl named Nangong Wuyue."
Then everyone behind him was stunned.
The dead fish-eyed clerk didn't know what was going on, so he quickly filled out a simple form, and then Hao Ren directly pushed Nangong Wuyue forward: "You have such a good reputation that a mercenary group was formed to take it over from you. That mission—the man has been found.”
Dozens of minutes later, at the door of the Mercenary Association.
Hao Ren led four "bodyguards" with wonderful expressions on their faces and squatted on the steps to watch the people coming and going on the street. Betsy stood next to them, still in a state of dementia. The mercenary girl thought for a long time before she finally said: " ... It is estimated that new regulations will be issued urgently tomorrow in various places."
Hao Ren looked back at the closed door of the Mercenary Association: "Do you think I will be beaten to death next time I go in?"
"meeting."
