Chapter 223: Combat missions

Zhou Ping looked at Wu Jingxian, speechless for a while. It’s no longer early. When they first arrived outside the city, the sun slanted to the west, and now, it had already set. Although there was still a little afterglow, it would be dark soon.

Go out for a task at night?

Zhou Ping looked at Wu Jingxian, but still did not say anything.

There was a storage base map on the chip of the student card. They inputted energy into it, checked the map, and returned to the Martial Arts Building.

“I knew that the task office was here, so why would I go to the villa!”

Zhou Ping was speechless for a while. He was immediately pulled in by Wu Jingxian.

The task office was in the lobby on the third floor, where it was open 24 hours a day. Zhou Ping and Wu Jingxian looked left and right curiously.

There were scrolling screens on all four walls. All of which were densely packed with tasks. Each task was followed by a serial number and a brief description. Although it was a bit late, there were still many people in the mission hall checking and receiving tasks.

Zhou Ping and Wu Jingxian enthusiastically started to browse the tasks on their screens, but after watching them for a while, both of them were extremely disappointed.

The tasks on these displays were almost all very boring life tasks. For example, going to a restaurant as a helper, or going to a store as a waiter. It’s not so much a task as a job offer. What’s more weird was that there was actually a task of helping people find lost pets, which was simply humiliating as a warrior.

The two were greatly disappointed, and their originally high spirits were doused with cold water.

“Are you two freshmen? Is it your first time to come to the task hall?” Suddenly, a voice rang behind them. Zhou Ping and Wu Jingxian looked back and saw a young man dressed in light blue standing with a smile.

Although the man was smiling, his eyes secretly looked at Wu Jingxian. Zhou Ping felt unhappy, but he didn’t showed it.

Wu Jingxian also noticed the look in the young man’s eyes. Without talking to the man, Wu Jingxian pulled Zhou Ping and walked towards the reception.

An awkward expression flashed across the young man’s face, but the young man did not leave. He followed Zhou Ping and Wu Jingxian, which immediately made them even more displeased.

“Hello, is there anything I can help with?” The receptionist at the reception desk was also a young woman. Seeing Zhou Ping and Wu Jingxian walking by, she suddenly showed a professional smile.

“May I ask if there are any tasks suitable for martial artists,” Wu Jingxian said, making sure to add the words “suitable for martial artists”.

“The tasks we publish here are all tasks suitable for warriors.” The receptionist obviously handled this kind of problem before, and she still said with a smile on her face.

“They are all tasks suitable for martial artists?” Wu Jingxian looked dissatisfied. “Being a helper for a restaurant is considered a suitable task for warriors?”

“You two are freshmen? It seems that you have some misunderstandings about the tasks we are posting here. Do you need me to explain the tasks?” the receptionist said.

“Yes, you can explain it to us.” Wu Jingxian nodded.

“Our tasks are divided into two types. One is the task issued by the academy, and the other is the task issued by private individuals. Each task has long-term and short-term distinctions.

“What you saw about helping a restaurant is a private task. But please don’t underestimate these tasks. There are no ordinary people here. We are all warriors, including those engaged in life and occupation. Take the restaurant task as an example. Well, the food sold in our restaurants here is not made of ordinary ingredients. The meat is monster beast meat. In order to keep it fresh, these monster beasts are kept alive. Therefore, to process these ingredients, you must have a warrior.

“Not only that, to cook delicious monster meat, you must use internal force to process it. Including the heat control during cooking, it is impossible to make delicious monster meat if you are not a martial artist. So don’t underestimate the work of chefs and helpers. Many warriors are eager to become a martial arts chef.”

“There is actually this kind of occupation?” The words of the receptionist made Zhou Ping and Wu Jingxian look at each other. Zhou Ping remembered some gourmet comics he had seen, and the chefs in them were all super masters.

“Those people are looking for the lost pet? You won’t tell me that the pet is a monster, are you?” Wu Jingxian asked with her eyes widened.

“Yes.” The receptionist nodded.

Zhou Ping and Wu Jingxian were completely speechless. In the outside world, it was extremely rare to be able to tame monsters. Of course, it was also related to the scarcity of monsters. But here, the domestication of monsters was so popular that they were used as pets. Zhou Ping didn’t know how to evaluate it for a while.

“I knew I should have brought my Liger.” Zhou Ping sighed secretly in his heart.

“How about it? Are you two going to take over these tasks?” the receptionist asked when she saw that they were silent.

Wu Jingxian and Zhou Ping shook their heads. Although these tasks were indeed good, the essence had not changed. Asking them to be kitchen workers or looking for pets, the two would never do it.

“It seems that the two want to accept some combat missions, right?” the receptionist’s expression remained unchanged and asked the two.

“Yes.” Wu Jingxian and Zhou Ping nodded at the same time.

“Generally speaking, most combat missions are issued by the academy, but occasionally, there are also private entities releasing combat missions. Combat missions are not released in the lobby because of their danger.”

Zhou Ping and Wu Jingxian were taken aback by the receptionist’s words.

“I said that the outside tasks are all kinds of cheating tasks. It turns out that I found the wrong place.” Zhou Ping was ashamed, feeling like he was bumping like a headless fly.

“Combat missions are released in the room at the end of the third floor. If you are interested, you can go there. However, I want to remind both of you that any damage or even death that occurs in combat missions are the person’s responsibility. Have you considered it?” the receptionist said to the two.

“You two are freshmen. I suggest that you start with life tasks, get familiar with the situation, and then consider accepting combat tasks.”

“No, we have made a decision.” Wu Jingxian refused without hesitation, and then walked towards the end of the third floor with Zhou Ping.

The young man still followed behind them with a smile, making Zhou Ping wish to give him a severe lesson. If they were not in the Martial Arts Building, Zhou Ping would have to let him know why the flowers were so red.
