Banner of the Evil God

If you have food in your hands, you won’t panic, and the same is true if you have money.

That night was the most peaceful sleep Crick had ever had since his journey.

Early the next morning, accompanied by his bodyguards, he went to the Adventurer's Guild at Masked Void Amusement Park to recruit suitable people.

As soon as I arrived at the Adventurer's Guild, I heard someone making a noise inside the house before I could even enter. When I walked in, I saw a slender girl with silver-white hair and pointed ears arguing with a fat middle-aged man.

Creek listened curiously. Generally speaking, the girl meant that she had grown up and was very capable, and it was time to go out and make a living. The middle-aged man said that your teacher told me that although you can learn magic, Yes, but the actual combat experience is still seriously lacking. If you want to practice, just join the Knights and become a military mage. If you rush out to take risks, it is not an adventure but a danger...

"This little girl has an unusual origin!" After listening for a while, Creek couldn't help but be a little curious. I quietly asked the adventurer who was sitting in the corner of the guild hall and asked, and sure enough, this little girl turned out to be the daughter of Mrs. Teague, the agricultural officer of the Void Mask Playground, and the sister of the administrative officer, Ms. Liv, Ms. Nice.

Not only that, Miss Nisi is also the favorite disciple of Master Satan, the head of the Mage Group of Masked Void Church. She has been studying with Master Satan for several years. She is a rising star of the new generation in Masked Void Church, a first-class young talent.

Creek nodded while listening, and bought a bottle of high-end liqueur for the adventurer to liven up the conversation.

After about half an hour, Miss Nice finally left angrily in vain. Then he said goodbye to his drinking buddy whose name he didn't even know. Shi Shiran entered the office and put forward his commission.

"We need to recruit several adventurers with intermediate or higher levels. They are mainly bodyguards and may encounter more dangerous battles. Long-term contracts and reliable character are required. In addition to money, the reward can also include titles... Yes Is this right?" The leader of the Adventurer's Guild, Peter, was the middle-aged man who was stalked by Miss Nice just now but refused to let go. He pondered for a moment and said, "If you don't mind, you can Are you willing to talk about your situation in detail?"

Of course Crick didn't mind, so he told him his situation - not including some secret things.

President Pitt thought for a long time, then took out a piece of paper and wrote a few names on it. After thinking about it, he crossed them out and wrote a new name.

"Based on your situation, I suggest you recruit a stable team of adventurers. The team of 'Underground Warriors' is very suitable." He said, "This is a well-known adventure team, with the captain 'Earth Bear' Divol He is a very high-level warrior. Although he is best at exploring underground caves, his strong martial arts skills and rich leadership experience make him qualified for various tasks, especially since he was a soldier when he was young and he also knows how to train. Soldiers are good enough to serve as instructors.”

Creek nodded slightly, acknowledging that this was a good choice.

"The other three members of the Underground Warriors are Priest 'Fire Hammer' Morton, Ranger 'Three Arrows' Red, and Rogue 'Backstab' Rafael. They have completed difficult tasks more than once, and their credibility is very good. , is a very high-level adventure team.”

"So, what's the price?"

President Peter smiled: "They are all a bit old now, especially Mr. Divol, who has reached the age of retirement. So as long as there is a long-term and stable job and the employer is relatively reliable, it is best to really settle down. , the requirements for remuneration are not that high - what they attach most importance to now is that employees must be honest and reliable, and cannot be the type who hides their secrets in a smile or is ruthless. "

Creek smiled: "Don't worry about this, I have a pretty good character. I am a believer of His Majesty the Song of Yuan Yuan!"

Although he is actually a fake, his identity as a believer in the God of Literature and Art is quite convincing. As we all know, because of being ostracized by the Church of the God of Nobles, those nobles who still persist in their belief in the God of Literature and Art are generally of good character.

President Peter naturally knew something about this. He thought about it and persuaded Crick to go to the Temple of the God of Literature and Art - the "Eternal Song Theater" of the Mask of the Void Amusement Park, where the entire There are more than 60% of the elite members of the Church of the God of Literature and Art. With his status, he should be able to successfully recruit one or two reliable priests.

"Can I recruit mages?" Creek asked.

Although priests are also spellcasters and are often better at dealing with curses and evil, priests' abilities mainly come from God's inspiration. Compared with mages who rely on wisdom and knowledge to master magical power, they tend to simply cast spells. Scholars The ability is obviously much inferior.

Let’s talk about the professions in the system. The professional components of priests are generally warrior/priest, or warrior/paladin/priest, or priest/priest. Very few people have the scholar level. The situation is different for mages. Almost every mage has a scholar level, and many mages have a scholar level that is even higher than the mage level. For the time traveler Creek, having a powerful scholar as a consultant will definitely help. Very busy!

"There is nothing we can do about mages. Our Church of Masked Void has a bad relationship with the Lord of Mysteries Church. There are very few mages working here." President Peter shrugged and said helplessly, "If you want to recruit mages, you only have to Go to the Mystic Tower Federation—you live in the Principality of Thunder anyway, and right next to it is the Mystic Tower Federation..."

"This 'next door' is more than two thousand miles away."

"It's just a few teleports, and you're not short of money."

Creek was persuaded and agreed to meet with the "Underground Warriors" adventure group tomorrow and then use the teleportation array to go to the Supreme Tower, the capital of the Mystic Tower Federation.

When he arrived at the Supreme Tower, he found that the Adventurer's Guild here was far inferior to the one at Mask of the Void Amusement Park. First, the adventurers' information management was not perfect enough. Secondly, the internal atmosphere was not so harmonious. It always felt like many people were there. Secretly looking at his wallet.

Fortunately, he still recruited a good mage. This mage's name is Dam Wade, a relatively unknown transformation mage. This type of mage is good at changing things, whether they are external objects or themselves, whether they are external or internal. Generally speaking, they are a bit like alchemists - in fact, Damwed wizards are also part-time alchemists.

[Damweide, strength ten, constitution ten, agility twelve, perception fourteen, intelligence eighteen, charm eight, reputation two hundred and sixty. Occupation: scholar level 5, alchemist level 2, mage level 6, loyalty 60]

When he saw the attributes of Master Damweed, Creek was worried that the sixth-level mage might be a parallel import, but then the mage skillfully cast an intermediate spell, dispelling his concerns.

Probably... the levels of scholar and alchemist can be counted as part of the level of mage... so Crick guessed.

Master Damweide is conducting magic research, which requires a lot of money and a relatively stable environment. So he is willing to accept Crick's employment, even if there is danger, he doesn't care. However, he also made his own request - he requested a separate laboratory, which was strictly prohibited from being disturbed unless there were special circumstances, and he also needed to arrange for a guard to guard the door.

These requests were generally reasonable, so the two parties quickly reached an agreement.

Creek teleported Master Damweed back to the Mask of the Void Playground. After settling the mage down, he went to the Eternal Song Theater without stopping.

A senior priest of the Church of the God of Literature and Art received this noble church member. When he learned that he was currently in great trouble and needed reliable manpower, he arranged two helpers for him.

One is a priest named Thomas and the other is a bard named Nicholas. It's interesting to say that both of them are good at using electric shock spells, but their relationship with each other is very bad. They quarrel almost every time they meet, and they even often fight. The reason why the Church of the God of Literature and Art gave them all to Crick may also be out of sight and out of mind.

Despite the bad relationship between them, the followers of these two gods of literature and art are still very strong, and their loyalty is also very reliable. Thomas's total level has reached level fourteen, while Nicholas's level has reached thirteen, and their loyalty levels have both reached eighty, so they can be assured.

Seeing that it was getting late, Creek invited them and Master Damweed to have dinner together, and of course his two bodyguards. A group of six people ate and drank heavily in a large hotel run by the Church of the God of Joy. In the end, except for Master Damved, who did not drink, the rest of the group became extremely drunk.

The next morning, Creek drank the sobering potion provided by the hotel and finally got rid of his hangover. After washing up a little, he met the "Underground Warriors" adventure group.

These four adventurers are all quite old, and the leader, Captain Divol, even has a little gray hair on his temples. But their temperament is quite calm, their eyes are still sharp, and they don't show signs of aging at all.

Creek asked the bodyguards to take action and tested their strength. These four adventurers are indeed proven masters. It can be seen that they have not tried their best, but they have steadily suppressed the two bodyguards. Their strength is indeed reassuring.

Of course, compared to their performance, the character attributes given by the system are more reassuring to Crick.

In terms of levels, Divol is level 15, Morton and Red are level 14, and Rafael is level 13. In terms of attributes, the attributes of the four of them are quite high, and they are not as stupid as the two bodyguards, who can't be found. Obvious shortcomings; in terms of loyalty, Divol is 70, and the other three are all 65, which is considered satisfactory.

When Crick said that as long as everything settled down and the crisis was over, he could arrange a title for Divol and even get a village as a fief, Divol's loyalty soared to ninety, and the remaining three Everyone's loyalty has also increased by ten points, and they can be used as a reliable team member.

With such a group of experts helping out, Crick finally had full confidence in weathering the crisis at hand.
