Mermaid Oath

Luo Xiuze glanced at it: "That company is a company affiliated to the Cosmos Alliance. It is said that they have been devoting themselves to developing new energy substances, so their mining machines often suffer from various strange losses. When they are maintenance workers, it is not possible to do it with two brushes, at least they must have advanced degrees from more than three civilizations to successfully apply.”

Qi Nan: "..." Damn, even a maintenance worker needs such a high degree of education these days, is there any way for me to survive?

Luo Xiuze patted Qi Nan's head with reassurance: "Don't worry, you should do the work of leading the battle. Leave it to me to do things that require brains."

Qi Nan: "...Wait, were you implying that I have no brains?"

Luo Xiuze looked at him with pity, and said persuasively, "I'm not hinting, I'm saying it clearly."

Qi Nan: "..." Can you still happily fall in love, fall!

Luo Xiuze finally couldn't help laughing out loud, and Qi Nan who was blushing from his laughter punched him angrily.

Perhaps it was because Luo Xiuze's laughter was too cheerful, which attracted many onlookers to look at them.

"Okay, stop laughing!" Qi Nan secretly pulled Luo Xiuze, he didn't like being surrounded by so many strange creatures.It's not that he can't adapt to the sight of others, it's really... Most of these aliens are strangely shaped, and being stared at by them makes his inexplicable back shiver.

Luo Xiuze finally stopped smiling at Qi Nan's white eyes, and took him to search those missions with him.

"Tsk tsk..." Qi Nan looked at the strange tasks and couldn't help but sigh. It really is impossible to do, but he just inquired about the first-level quests and unlimited-level quests. These things are enough to make him amazed.

"Hello..." A strange voice sounded from behind the two of them.

The two turned their heads and saw a——a cat?

It was a black and white tabby cat with a black bow tie around its neck.He greeted them very politely: "Hello, both of you."

It was also the first time for Luo Xiuze to see a cat. He squatted down with great interest, stretched out his hand to hold his paw and shook it: "Hello."

Huamao nodded to the two of them implicitly: "I don't know if I have the honor, can you have a drink?"

In the mission hall, some missions can be encountered in the market that require the cooperation of multiple people, so inviting others to have a drink like Huamao is basically a secret code that everyone has agreed upon.

"Okay." Before Luo Xiuze could refuse, Qi Nan happily agreed.

Luo Xiuze looked at him helplessly, Qi Nan hid his face silently, he just instinctively lowered his vigilance towards the fluffy creatures, it was not intentional.

The cat flicked its slender tail happily, bowed its waist and made a gesture of 'please'.

Luo Xiuze had no choice but to follow him to the small room around him. Anyway, he could refuse the task before the negotiation was completed, and it didn't matter if he listened to the content of the task first.

The two of them and the cat quickly left the quest hall and entered the small room around them. After they were done in the teahouse, Luo Xiuze tapped on the table: "Tell me about the quest content, and...why do you have to find The two of us? We're obviously new, right?"

Huamao jumped onto the table and smiled at them: "Let me introduce myself first. My name is too long if it is translated into human lingua franca, so you can call me Mr. Hua."

"Actually, you don't need to be too nervous. I'm just the guide for your novice tasks." Mr. Hua said with a smile.

"Newbie mission." Luo Xiuze raised his eyebrows.

"Yes." Mr. Hua shook his tail: "After you entered the Cosmic Alliance, because you are not familiar with the various races, it is likely to cause some unnecessary losses. It is set for a special race. If you are not of this special race, you will face a huge fine if you fail to complete the task once you accept it." Mr. Hua glanced at them with a half-smile: "You know, The internal competition of the Cosmic Alliance is very fierce, and anyone who is not careful will be fooled."

Luo Xiuze nodded, accepting Mr. Hua's statement.

Mr. Hua licked his lips, and said to Luo Xiuze with a smile: "My identity as a leader is protected by the alliance, that is to say, during the process of completing the mission, you cannot attack me. Give me a part, of course, only a small part."

Luo Xiuze raised his eyebrows slightly, it turned out that this guy was a broker.

"Then... why are we looking for you?" Now that the other party's identity is confirmed, Luo Xiuze is not in a hurry anymore, he believes that since the other party dares to say that, then the identity of the broker must be beyond doubt.

Mr. Hua's long beard trembled, and he raised his small head: "Of course it's because I'm one of the best brokers in this quest hall... ahem, one of them."

Seeing such a seemingly ordinary cat put on such a proud posture, I have to say that this picture is very interesting, but Luo Xiuze is not as small as this cat, no matter whether he is a cat or something, regardless of his appearance Weak, but being able to become a broker is enough to prove his level.

As for whether this level is reflected in his exploitation, connections, or proficiency in secret information, in a word, to become a broker, even if his body is a cat, it is a cat that cannot be underestimated!

"Actually...we have no plans to accept the mission yet, because we are preparing to participate in the ranger assessment in a few months." Knowing the other party's identity, Luo Xiuze did not hide anything, and directly revealed his purpose.

"It's normal." Mr. Hua waved his paw, and said indifferently: "When I first came to the Cosmos Alliance, I was in a hurry to do the task. People like that usually don't live long, so I never do business with that kind of people. It has been more than half a month since the end of the Challenger Realm, and this is the first time you have appeared here, I think that only people like you who act after careful consideration are worthy of cooperation."

The corner of Qi Nan's mouth twitched. These days, even cats know idioms... Wait, this is actually thanks to the translator, right? ?

"However..." Mr. Hua changed the topic: "The half-month adaptation period is almost over, and you should also adapt to the various types of tasks in the mission hall. You know, the examiners of the ranger assessment come from different civilizations. To understand the behavior styles of different civilizations in the shortest possible time can only be done in the mission hall.”

Luo Xiuze touched his chin: "That makes a lot of sense."

"Of course." Mr. Hua said proudly: "Our cat professional brokers have guided countless rangers. According to our analysis, those who can skillfully complete various tasks have a high chance of passing the ranger assessment. of."

"Then do you have any recommendations?" Qi Nan interjected from the side.

Mr. Hua pressed the bow tie on his chest, and a transparent screen popped up on the desktop. A row of tasks were displayed on the screen, which Mr. Hua probably selected from those tasks.

"These tasks are the most cost-effective among all tasks, but some of them are not suitable for you, so I will delete them." After speaking, Mr. Hua pressed a few times on the leading street, and a large number of tasks disappeared from the screen .

"The rest of these tasks are not very dangerous, but they can temper you. They are very suitable for you."

Luo Xiuze took a look and found that there were not too many combat missions, most of them were exploration missions, and the places to be explored by these exploration missions were not very dangerous, including some decryption missions.

Luo Xiuze clicked on one of the tasks, and the task mark instantly enlarged, and the content of the task was projected below.

Luo Xiuze glanced at it, and the corner of his mouth twitched: "This task of studying characters can also help us pass the ranger assessment?"

Mr. Hua nodded: "Don't underestimate this kind of task. According to our statistics, there have been at least two hundred patrolling assessments in history that have included decryption content, and this pictograph is one of the most powerful characters. , that is, the probability of being selected is very high.”

"How big can it be?" Qi Nan squinted at him.

Mr. Hua looked up at the sky: "Probably... about three thousandths..."

Qi Nan & Luo Xiuze: "..."

"Ahem...you have to know, there are so many rangers in the alliance, who knows which one will be selected for this assessment? This kind of thing is related to the confidentiality of the alliance. Unless it is a real high-level If you don't have access to this kind of news, even if you do, you don't dare to leak it." Mr. Hua helplessly spread his hands.

Luo Xiuze didn't bother to look at the details of those missions. According to Mr. Hua, the so-called tempering of missions is just a matter of luck. good choice.

"Choose one for us." Luo Xiuze said casually.

Mr. Hua looked through the task list, pawed a little: "That's it."

Luo Xiuze took a closer look at the task content, and it was impressive to explore an ancient ruins.According to the mission record, this ruin belongs to the fifth-level civilization, and the Cosmic Alliance divided the whole ruin into different levels of missions. What Luo Xiuze and the others could pick up was actually just exploring the periphery of the ruins.

Fortunately, Luo Xiuze didn't intend to go deep, after all, it was a fifth-level civilization, even if this civilization had been annihilated due to various inexplicable reasons, who knows if there will be any terrifying mechanisms left in their ruins.

That's not something he can handle at his current level. Instead of going in and taking risks, it's better to explore outside, maybe he can gain something.

"Then... what do you want?" Luo Xiuze looked at Mr. Hua.

Mr. Hua shook his beard: "You must make a copy of the information you obtained after exploring."

"That's it?" Luo Xiuze was a little surprised, but after thinking about it, these brokers might not be able to do much in the task, so for the consideration of both parties, this kind of thing that can be shared is undoubtedly the best reward.
