Chapter 60: Chapter 60: Bounty Order

(Let me explain the question mentioned in the previous part of this chapter.)

The beneficial fungi growing in Han Dong’s body use supportive methods such as “bridging” and “assisting blood transport” to bring his body to the level of a normal person. It’s like wearing an exoskeleton device to enhance bodily functions. Essentially, it doesn’t fuse into the cells, it doesn’t belong to a part of the body, and so, it doesn’t increase the load value.)

Main text:

Cass’s enthusiasm didn’t have any hidden motive.

The ghoul task a week ago.

As the exploration progressed, the aim of the event shifted from newborn ghouls to mature ghouls, and then led to a small-scale Ghoul Nest…the difficulty had been raised to a level that Cass alone could never complete.

During the execution of the mission.

The handling of key stages all depended on Han Dong’s adaptability.

Moreover, when Cass was injured, Han Dong actually managed to kill a mature ghoul single-handedly…The final scene of the “fierce ghost emerging” is still etched in Cass’s heart.

In Cass’s eyes.

Han Dong must be an elite among those who study mysticism, with endless potential.

After a bit of small talk, Cass still had one arm around Han Dong’s shoulders, turning to look at the members of his squad.

“This is the mystic genius, Aron. Andwa, that I mentioned… just a mere two stars, and he has already obtained a Fate Weapon that suits him through a hidden event.

He possesses two abilities: plague attack and evil summoning.

The Ghoul Nest incident last time was resolved all thanks to our friend Andwa.

Otherwise, I may not have been able to see you all now.”

Cass gave a high appraisal.

However, the higher the appraisal, along with the closer relationship seen between Cass and Han Dong, the more jealous Fiya, who sat on the other side, became. She even began to feel ‘hostility’ towards Han Dong, the special kind of hostility that existed between romantic rivals.

After the introduction, Han Dong also took off his bird beak mask, putting on a pretense of a smile.

Actually, Han Dong initially thought he would only meet with Cass alone, he didn’t expect there to be other apprentice knights here.

Given the current scenario, Han Dong thought: “The purpose of calling me here should not solely be for the bounty task… It’s very likely to involve the Fate Space a week later.

The purpose of having me carry out the bounty task together is to further understand my abilities.

Cass trusting me does not mean the other team members can trust me…” Cass continued to introduce members of the team:

“Let me introduce you to these fellows, who have also experienced the Fate Space with me.”

Cass first pointed to the girl with wavy golden hair.

From her clothes, jewelry, and her flawless white skin, one can tell she is of extraordinary birth, likely the young lady of a notable family.

“Kate Sophia, three stars[Library], specializes in holy light type spells, can cast healing spells multiple times… When dealing with monsters of dark type, she can also become a main combat member.”

Fiya, still with a proud look on her face and jealousy hard to dissipate, just nodded politely out of courtesy, then shifted her gaze away.

Cass continued to introduce the other one, “Arnold Koslin, three stars[machinery], a rare dual cultivation knight!

Koslin not only excels in machinery manufacturing but also has a talent in long-range sniping.”

Koslin was more proactive.

However, his proactive behavior was not in the form of politeness.

He had no intention of shaking hands with Han Dong, but rather used the magnifying effect of his homemade “goggles” to seriously examine Han Dong from head to toe.

“Mysticism, plague studies?!”

It seemed that Koslin had observed some fungi residue on Han Dong’s body surface.

“Mhm.”

Koslin nodded:

“Plague studies is good. Apprentice knights from other areas of mysticism usually lack offensive potential… only plague studies fall into the category of strong offense.

If you have any items that need processing, you can contact me separately.

Small items are free, large items will be charged at internal prices.

My craftsmanship is up to knight level, you can safely hand over the materials to me.”

“Okay…”

Han Dong showed an awkward but polite smile.

He had met ‘weird’ people like Koslin in his previous life.

Back in university, a young professor from the mechanical engineering department was the same, he didn’t care about social etiquette at all, he would

start discussing in-depth knowledge with people right off the bat while

boasting about himself on the side.

Seeing that the introduction was somewhat awkward, Cass quickly steered the conversation back to the main topic.

“Let’s first determine our bounty task.”

The special bounty note carefully chosen by Cass unfolded on the table, a mission that was classified as ‘unclear’ and ranked highly in difficulty, requiring at least three or more people to work on it together.

‘Bounty Order’: Ghost event of London Street.

Location: London Street, No.37.

Details:

Two days ago, a homicide occurred in the Baker Mansion at 37 London Street.

Including the homeowner Baker Marcellus (a former apprentice knight), all six members of the family were killed overnight.

Moreover, an ‘evil curse’ mark was found at the scene.

The local security personnel immediately identified and arrested the murderer, but the matter did not end there.

The day after the incident, a local security officer [Lester Isop], after inspecting and cleaning building 37, died suddenly at home that night.

Furthermore, many of the residents living near the Baker family claim to occasionally see ‘ghosts’ drifting around in the Baker Mansion… mostly active at night, some people even heard the weeping of the ghost.

The incident has not yet been classified by the Knights Regiment or the local church.

It is first treated as a bounty task and made public, with an execution period of four days.

If no apprentice knights take on it, or if the apprentice knights who accept the task suffer serious casualties, the Knights Regiment will undertake the investigation.

Difficulty (estimated): Three stars

Scale (estimated): Medium (Recommended: Team of three or more to complete)

Deadline: Four days (During the execution of the task, no need to apply for leave from the Institute)

Completion Requirements: Figure out the nature of the ‘ghost’ and completely solve it, bring the relevant evidence back to the Adventurers Association (During the investigation, if the nature of the event exceeds the description of the bounty order, please collect evidence and immediately contact the local church or the Knights Regiment division, and you may voluntarily abandon the mission.)

Task Rewards:

Five hundred copper coins (If the difficulty of the event changes, the reward will be increased by up to 100%.)

Material reward (choice of material, homemade equipment, potion)

Knights credits, each team member gets three points.

Note: 1. There’s a high chance this event may be ‘contaminated’, please be sure to wear [goggles] and receive a holy light baptism at the local church before carrying out the task.

After completing the task, you must go to a recognized stress release location such as the local church, the discipline office, etc., for ‘stress’ release.

At the bottom of the bounty order, there’s a hand-drawn icon of the ‘evil curse’ and a sketch of the ghost based on descriptions from nearby residents.

It’s a little different from the general idea of a ghost.

The drawing depicts a humanoid creature wrapped in white semi-transparent gauze.

Judging from its figure, it’s most likely female… meanwhile, structures resembling dried up branches or tentacles are vaguely visible under the gauze..
