Chapter 44 Before the Journey
Chapter 44 Before the Journey
……
The weather has turned cooler and there are no more young ladies wearing cool clothes on the streets, which makes Mo Yingge quite regretful.
Alas, I can’t always look at myself, what’s the point?
╮(︶﹏︶)╭
The wind is blowing for 90,000 miles, blowing down the mountain city without moving!
Anfeng City is indeed a magical place.
The wind blows the white clouds over the mountains into chaos, I sit and watch the wind roll and the clouds unfold.
Mo Yingge found the office of Tianwu Academy in Anfeng City, and the first thing she saw was an antique building with a brick and wood structure.
She also discovered that Anfeng City seemed to particularly admire ancient buildings, and there were not many modern tall buildings in the city.
This office is like this, a duplex antique courtyard.
The door is not big, but it feels open once you enter.
When Mo Yingge stepped over the threshold, she saw a courtyard full of lush vegetation. Behind it was a large pond surrounded by man-made canals, which was a refreshing sight.
How can this be called a courtyard? It's just a small park.
After finally finding the correct way to open it, Mo Yingge finally reached the teacher on duty.
"Oh, let me see, is it Mo Yingge?" The teacher with a long beard stroked his beard and operated the computer one by one with his Yang Finger, unhurriedly, until he saw Dean Qiu's name.
"Hey, was it Qiuhong who asked you to come over?!" The long-bearded teacher looked at Mo Yingge with interest, but his words made Mo Yingge's scalp tingle.
Oh my goodness, if she heard correctly, Qiuhong seemed to be the name of Dean Qiu. Who is this bearded teacher? He actually called the Dean by his name.
"What's the big deal? Qiuhong and I are old classmates and have known each other since childhood. So what if she is the dean?!" The old man puffed his beard and glared, looking like he didn't care at all.
Mo Yingge felt that the person who dared to say that must be a hidden boss, and he might have to curry favor with him.
"No wonder you are asked to guard here, your true power is hidden!" Mo Yingge sighed.
"Haha, that's right, otherwise the school wouldn't let me guard here!" The old man laughed heartily without any concealment.
Mo Yingge thought to himself, could this old man be a real big shot?
But it has nothing to do with her for now.
Although he was smiling, the old man was still operating the computer slowly and leisurely.
"Come on, little girl, take out your student ID."
"oh oh."
Mo Yingge handed over her student ID card. The old man swiped it casually, entered the information, clicked confirm, and it was done!
"Okay, now that you are here and have entered your information, don't bring shame to the school. You must know that not only other students will be here, but also people from the society will get involved." The old man with a long beard stroked his white beard and said meaningfully.
"Ah? There are also social personnel?" Mo Yingge was a little confused. Could it be that all the people she saw on the street were here to take on this task?
"I believe you have seen many mages on the street on your way here. In fact, they are all here for this mission." The old man said slowly.
Mo Yingge asked quickly. She thought those magicians outside were normal, but it turned out that they were all here for missions!
What kind of a mission is this? ! !
"Grandpa, just tell me what's going on~" Mo Yingge quickly ran over to massage the old man's shoulders, and said coquettishly, hoping to get some information.
She really didn't expect that a school mission would have such a mess of twists and turns.
"Ahem. Be gentle!" The old man felt a pain in his shoulder from being pinched by the clumsy Mo Yingge, and he said without keeping her in suspense:
"This mission was originally jointly issued by the Anfeng City government and our academy. If you can receive missions from the academy, they can naturally receive missions issued by the official." Mo Yingge agreed. Tianwu Academy has a stake here, and the government, military, and even local families, as well as the Magic Association and the Hunter Alliance all have shares. It is equivalent to everyone working together, so naturally they all have a share in issuing missions.
"Not only do we have the power to issue tasks, but the task rewards are also provided by all parties together." The old man knew what Mo Yingge was thinking without even looking at her, and spoke directly out her thoughts.
Mo Yingge's hands trembled again, and she apologized hastily, tears welling up in her eyes.
"Hey, hey, hey, little girl, stop pinching me. My old bones can't stand your torture!" The old man drove Mo Yingge away, fearing that he would crush her to pieces.
"Hehe." Mo Yingge touched the back of her head and fiddled with her ponytail. She didn't know when her tears had disappeared.
The old man's beard immediately stood up when he saw it!
"So what are the specific rewards?" Mo Yingge asked.
"Well, you know what's going on in the academy. It's mainly credits, which are more useful than anything else. The rest are just resources, such as spirit essence, top-grade wind magic stones, and some odd and ends. Oh, and there's also a property in Anfeng City. You can choose it based on the results of the mission you complete." The old man explained.
This is quite thoughtful. Students naturally need more credits, and independent mages in society naturally need more tangible resources. You can choose whatever you want with confidence.
"But is there nothing precious?" Mo Yingge was still unwilling to accept it and pulled the old man to ask.
The old man slapped her hand away, thought for a moment and then said, "Isn't this enough? It's just some minor disturbances. It's been going on for almost half a month, and there hasn't been any major chaos. We just want you to drive away some demons. Those magic hunters are even paid daily."
The old man rolled his eyes, his face full of disgust.
"But now things have changed, and I'm going to tell you even if you don't ask me.
Just a few days ago, the number of small groups of demons that were originally just sporadic disturbances suddenly increased, and even a group of black-feathered crows attacked the magic stone mining area, causing a lot of losses, so this time you have added a task, which is to deal with the group of black-feathered crows!"
"what?!"
Mo Yingge was confused again. Oh my god, there really was something fishy going on. Things were becoming more and more interesting.
A smile appeared on his face unconsciously.
The old man was surprised. How come this girl was the same as Qiuhong back then? Not only was she not panicky when encountering things, but she also liked challenging things. Could this be her granddaughter?
No way, right?
The old man fell into deep thought.
……
"I haven't asked for your name yet." Seeing that the old man suddenly stopped talking, Mo Yingge was a little confused, but still asked respectfully.
When the old man saw Mo Yingge suddenly become formal, his face straightened slightly and he stroked his beard.
"My name is Peng Ruping. You are an interesting little girl. Don't lose your life in the mountains, otherwise I won't be able to explain to Qiuhong!" The old man narrowed his eyes, picked up the teacup and took a sip.
"Then the student will leave!"
When Mo Yingge saw the old man's actions, she naturally took her leave.
"Don't die!"
Peng Ruping stood up and looked out the window. He could still see Mo Yingge's back and seemed to see Luofeng Mountain in the distance.
He had some guesses, although they could not be confirmed, but this mission had already become difficult.
