Chapter 1261 Elder Ji’s interview

In the eyes of adventurers, this is a 2000 silver coin mission. Which one of the applicants is not greedy, and which one does not want to be the final candidate and the lucky one.

But for the donor, this is just a small task, and 2000 silver coins is a small amount of money. In the final analysis, it is just a small errand.

Choosing whom to choose or not depends on mood and intuitive feelings?
After Mr. Ming understood the whole conflict, he put aside his prejudice against the mushroom man and felt that the mushroom man's temperament and ability were really suitable for this job.

Coupled with Elder Ji's strong support, this favor should be given back to others.Although Elder Ji did not explicitly recommend them directly, he said more good things about the Mushroom People than he did about all previous adventurers combined.

If he is obedient, Mr. Ming can be a housekeeper for the Abyss clan and be responsible for their daily life. Naturally, he is indispensable for his sophistication and foresight.

Regardless of whether these mushroom people have a personal relationship with Elder Ji, they still have to give this little face.Moreover, Mr. Ming’s first impression of this mushroom man was quite good.

A respectful and humble attitude, but not completely flattering, nor kneeling and licking without a bottom line. It seems that this kind of pride is somewhat inappropriate.But it is precisely this performance that proves that this mushroom man has his own bottom line and self-esteem.

It is more reassuring to leave things to such people.

"Elder Ji, I have read the information about this mushroom man, and the interview feels good. As expected, Elder Ji is also optimistic about it. In this way, I want these people." Mr. Ming took the initiative to finalize.

Logically speaking, Mr. Ming wanted to hire Jiang Yue and the others, so he should tell Jiang Yue directly.

But he said directly to Elder Ji, this is interesting.

However, Jiang Yue soon understood that Mr. Ming was deliberately trying to betray Elder Ji and ask him to accept a favor.At the same time, I also told him that I am attracted to you mushroom people, and it is also due to Elder Ji's recommendation.Don't forget Elder Ji.

Elder Ji chuckled: "Mr. Ming is so courageous. It is an honor for these mushroom people to be favored by the Abyss Clan."

"Haha, you mushroom people, why don't you thank Mr. Ming for his appreciation? Mr. Ming gave you a bite of food. You must cherish it and serve the nobles of the Abyss Tribe well. Are you afraid that your future will be ruined?"

It seemed like everything was arranged.All Jiang Yue needs to do is thank him.

However, since Jiang Yue achieved his goal, he was naturally not reserved. He thanked him profusely and seemed flattered, as if his life and destiny had reached a turning point. His face was filled with joy and excitement, as well as infinite longing, as if he was looking forward to the future life. Full of expectations.

As Jiang Yue had expected before, the Abyssal Tribe issued this mission and needed to recruit more than just a few people.In addition to them, it was obviously necessary to find several more groups of people.

This has nothing to do with Jiang Yue. All Jiang Yue has to do is sign the document, which is considered to have finalized the task.

Mr. Ming was also very generous. He did not ask them to report now, but told them to go to the Wanxiang Hotel early tomorrow morning.

Mr. Ming also gave him a token. When the time comes, hold the token and go directly to the front desk to find it. Someone will naturally receive them and arrange tasks for them.

The task is that simple, and the reward of 2000 gold coins is indeed very profitable.I don’t know if people are stupid and have too much money, or if they are truly wealthy.

The interview will continue here, so Jiang Yue will naturally not stay there forever, and he has to make room for other adventurers.

"Brothers Mushroom Man, stay."

Jiang Yue and the others returned to the guild hall and prepared to leave.But he was stopped by a deacon from the guild.

This deacon had been standing next to Elder Ji before. Jiang Yue knew him. He knew that he was Elder Ji's subordinate and he should be a confidant.Otherwise it would be impossible to serve him personally.

"Master Deacon, what are your orders?" Jiang Yue roughly guessed what was going on, but there was some doubt on his face and he acted very humble at the same time.

The deacon smiled slightly: "It's not a big deal. My family always knew that you won the gambling battle with Ah Tu, so they were quite amazed and wanted to praise you. I have recommended you to the Abyss Tribe many times before. You should know Right?"

Jiang Yue nodded and said with great gratitude: "Yes, Corporal Ji, Elder Lixian, has taken such good care of us mushroom people, which is very grateful."

"Haha, you're right. Elder Ji admires people who are capable the most. He never looks at people based on their ethnic origin. He is now accompanying Mr. Ming for an interview, and he can't leave for a while. But he said that he wants all of you. Just wait a minute, he wants to see you alone later. This is your fate. Elder Ji is a veteran elder in the guild. If he appreciates you and intends to promote you, it will be enough to change your destiny and make you directly powerful. Turn over. Why don't you do a high-risk job like an adventurer instead of you?"

The olive branch offered by the guild elder is definitely not something that adventurers can refuse.Not to mention the Mushroom People, even a group ten times better than the Mushroom People would not be able to resist the kindness unleashed by Elder Ji.

From the perspective of the mushroom man, Jiang Yue naturally couldn't refuse.

He immediately said that he would wait in the tavern and wait for Elder Ji to receive him at any time.

This attitude satisfied the deacon.

Elder Ji didn't let them wait too long. About an hour later, the deacon came to the door again and informed them to see Elder Ji.

Elder Ji still has the same pleasant appearance, looking like a kind neighbor's elder, very approachable.

Naturally, some questions were necessary, and inadvertently, there was also a hint of innuendo.

The most important topic is naturally the gambling battle over the local magic.Elder Ji was very curious, and he didn't even hide his desire to find out.

"I have heard of Ah Tu, the subordinate of Bronze Box. His earth-moving arts are very famous in the Titan City-State. The Chuanshan tribe is good at earth-moving arts, and he is a rare genius among the Chuanshan tribe. His The speed of a hundred miles can be said to have reached a very high level. Even if the old man is also good at the ground technique, it is difficult to say that he can beat him compared to a young junior like A Tu. Unexpectedly, you are a The mushroom man can actually lead him by more than two minutes. This is not easy."

Elder Ji sighed, and then asked: "My little friend, I am very curious, how did you do it? My curiosity is not that strong in other fields. But in the field of earth magic, I have also done a lot of research, and I have actually done it. I’m a little curious. I know that mushroom people are also good at earth magic, but as we all know, among the ethnic groups that are good at earth magic, there is no mushroom people group in the top ranks, and even mushroom people are not in the middle, right?”

There was a huge status disparity between the two, so Elder Ji was not very reserved in his words.There is no need to be careful with your words or worry about offending.

Jiang Yue smiled and said: "Maybe this is talent. I am not good at other fields, but I have always been very confident in earth magic. Otherwise, with my mushroom bloodline, how would I dare to face their provocation? Are you going to go head-to-head with them? The boss of the Copper Box underestimated the enemy and asked me to decide the method of betting. I just took advantage of a loophole, picked up a mistake, and took a coincidence."

Is it just talent?Elder Ji looked at Jiang Yue in surprise, obviously having some doubts about Jiang Yue's statement. "That is to say, little friend, can you beat Ah Tu just by relying on your talent and no other special means?"

Jiang Yue smiled bitterly and said: "Our mushroom people only have this talent. If we really have so many special methods, we won't be stepped on by others wherever we go. It seems like anyone can step on us."

"Isn't it relying on props and equipment?" Elder Ji asked unwillingly.

Jiang Yue shook his head and said: "Elder Ji, if there is such good equipment, it must be sky-high price equipment, right? We mushroom people are not qualified to enjoy this kind of equipment."

A group with a low status must be poor.The top equipment is definitely unaffordable.This is also common sense.

Elder Ji had been observing Jiang Yue, and felt slightly disappointed when he saw that his attitude was sincere and there was no trace of hypocrisy on his face.

He had expected them to have special equipment.In that case, someone from Ji Ji might be able to steal it and take it for himself through various means.

You don't even have to take it by force. In this three-acre acre of land in the guild, you just need to give the other party a little sweetness. Are you afraid that the other party won't obediently offer it to you?

However, Elder Ji still refused to give up.

"Yes, it seems that among the mushroom people, there are indeed geniuses with blood mutation. I admire your ability very much, and I also admire your character. What, do you plan to work in the Titan City-State and work as adventurers in the future?"

Jiang Yue said sincerely: "At present, there is no better way out, so we can only give it a try. After all, we have to make ends meet. Speaking of which, I have to thank the elder again for his many recommendations to Mr. Xiang Ming. Otherwise, Mr. Ming will never take a fancy to us mushroom people."

As long as you know.

Elder Ji smiled reservedly, waved his hand and said: "These are just a small effort. As I said before, I appreciate your ability and character, and I am willing to give you a hand. After all, I am The elders of the guild are also obliged to recommend outstanding candidates to the sponsor."

Jiang Yue gratefully presented the rainbow fart: "Elder, you have a lot of face. Even the boss of the Abyss tribe has to give you face. If it had been someone else, how could we, the mere mushroom people, have such good luck? This task can be solved. Our immediate concern.”

Not to mention, Elder Ji was really flattered by this flattery.

"The fact that you think so proves that I was not wrong about you before, and your character is indeed very stable. However, although 2000 silver coins are a lot, they will always be spent. In the long run, the adventurer profession may not be suitable for you guys. Mushroom man."

"Yes, I also know that the mushroom people have low combat effectiveness, which is an irreparable flaw. In the long run, this industry will still have to be tough." Jiang Yue followed Elder Ji's tone.

"Well, the fact that you think so proves that you are not overheated. Do your job well first, and come back here more often, and I will investigate again. If you are really talented, I will consider promoting you as appropriate. One or two.”

From the perspective of a guild elder, Elder Ji's words are really not a big deal.He is really qualified to say these words.

Naturally, Jiang Yue couldn't help but appreciate the compliment, and said happily: "The elder loves me wrongly, and the villain is very grateful."

"Haha, it doesn't have to be like this. Your skills are so good that I deserve to take a high look at you. Maybe one day, I will have to ask you for advice on my skills."

Many of my inner thoughts are said in a joking manner.

Elder Ji's joke at this moment may not be what he wanted to say.

Jiang Yue was also unambiguous: "I don't dare, so naturally I should ask the elders for advice."

Elder Ji chuckled, then picked up the tea cup and signaled to see off the guests.

Jiang Yue was very understanding and resigned respectfully.

……

Elder Ji's deacon came back after sending Jiang Yue away.

"Elder, these three mushroom men have left the guild. I sent people to follow them to see where they live."

Elder Ji smiled slightly: "It's not necessary. If they find out, it won't be good. Let your people come back. Don't worry, these mushroom people can't fly out of my hands. If I want to promote them, they will be eager to do it." Are you worried about them flying away if you stick them upside down?"

The deacon smiled and said: "The elder is wise, then I will withdraw them."

"Well, it is indeed rare to have such a character among the Mushroom People. I actually had an illusion, and I couldn't see clearly the depth of him in a trance."

"Oh? Elder, is this a joke?"

"Perhaps I am overly worried. However, he insists that it is just a bloodline talent, but I still have doubts. Even if a group's bloodline talent mutates, there is always an upper limit. The strength he has shown has far exceeded that of a mushroom. The upper limit of talent that a person should have. He must have some special equipment or props. He just doesn't want to just give it to me."

Elder Ji's judgment cannot be said to be wishful thinking.From a common sense point of view, it is indeed impossible for the mushroom man's bloodline talent to mutate far beyond the upper limit.

"In that case, we can definitely use both soft and hard tactics. Why should the elder be so polite to him?"

"Haha, we are a guild after all, not robbers. What I want is for him to give it willingly, and then I will give him a little promotion, so as not to lose his kindness. If we take it by force, it will eventually affect our reputation, and if it doesn't work well, it will even affect the The reputation of the guild. It must not be done unless it is absolutely necessary. Besides, he has now taken the task of the Abyss Clan, and we have to give the Abyss Clan some face. If there is no one on the first day, how will the Abyss Clan view us? ?”

The deacon nodded: "It's better for the elders to think carefully. I think these mushroom people will know what's going on."

Elder Ji chuckled: "The situation is about to change, so I am preparing for a rainy day and leaving myself some backup. God knows what will happen in this grand gathering of Titan City-State. Although you and I have noble status, we don't dare to do it in the face of the general situation. Take it lightly.”
