Reincarnation Of The Strongest Spirit Master-Chapter 230 A Suitable Mission
This place was lit in the night using these ores, feeling a little warm in the winter when it got cold. William knew even if he came here at night, this sight wouldn't greatly change.
Many disciples kept coming here to seek missions, deliver missions, or find jobs all over the day and till midnight. And when William entered there, he wasn't surprised to see huge boards suspended around the walls, with tons of missions listed on each of them.
He knew the Mercenary department's elder circle arranged missions based on location. There were around one hundred boards, representing one hundred different regions around the academy.
That meant even faraway places, like ones that'd take weeks to arrive at, were also enlisted here. 𝘧𝚛𝗲𝘦𝚠𝙚𝙗𝙣o𝙫𝗲𝚕.𝐜o𝓂
In each board, the highest enlisted missions, the ones written in red colour, were all dangerous missions. The ones lower, that were written in gold, were slightly difficult. The easiest were the green and white coloured missions, and they took almost more than two thirds of each board.
William knew these boards were controlled using some sort of technique, and with the special forging of these boards, it was easy for the elders to add, modify, or erase any mission from any board accordingly.
At the same time, there was only the names of each mission and the general requirement of it on each board. For example, there were missions asking to collect certain types of herbs from different zones in the forest, and they asked those accepting this to ensure a minimum age and certain quality of the herbs to get the mission done.
Such missions were common to see here, and they were issued usually by the Alchemy department. Few only got issued by outsiders, and the normal payment of these wasn't that high.
Such missions were usually written in white, green and blue colours, giving at most one hundred crystals per mission. If a single spirit master tried to finish such tasks alone, he'd be able to do it, but would waste tons of time and effort in the meantime.
That was why it was preferable for spirit masters to tag together. Even if this meant sharing the profit among more disciples, they'd save lots of time in return.
Not to mention the forest wasn't a nice place to venture into, and one would face lots of unexpected dangers out there.
William knew that the easy tasks of Forging and Alchemy departments were quite common here. Actually, teams didn't need to deal with any of the two departments at all, only needing to receive and deliver the mission requirements here.
William didn't come to seek such easy missions. He moved his eyes, reading the words placed on the small slates on top of each board, while he found many places he never even heard about their name before.
"There!" He was looking for a certain place, and he finally found it!
"Interesting… The hard missions there amount to more than half…" When William got closer to this board, he was surprised to see the red and gold colours filling almost half of the entire board!
If he also added silver missions, which were considered mid difficulty missions, then more than eighty percent of this board would be covered in the three colours.
He moved his eyes over the list of missions, trying to find something that he and his new team could do.
The missions spoke mostly about hunting down monsters, or evil individuals who were infamous around that region for killing and robbing spirit masters and merchants.
William didn't need to ask for further details to know the ranking of each individual there was at least at gold grade, with many at the dark gold rank.
"I can't do any of these," he mulled over his and his team's overall spirit power level. If they got a little stronger, reaching at least to silver grade as mid-level, he might consider one of these missions.
Putting aside their level of difficulty, the amount of spirit crystals enlisted next to any of these missions would make anyone drool.
The cheapest reward was ten thousand crystals, and the highest went up to one hundred thousand!
William didn't stop for a long time over such crazy missions, and soon his eyes stopped over a single one. f𝗿e𝙚𝘸e𝐛𝚗𝐨𝙫𝚎𝙡.c𝒐𝐦
"Gather intel about the dark spirit masters' activity in the region… Reward: Five thousand crystals. Additional reward is available if the intel provided exceeds the standard set for this mission… Sounds like a good mission."
William didn't think about the high value of this reward, but to the content of the mission itself.
He was the real antagonist for any dark spirit master, and seeing anything related to them instantly attracted his attention.
Once he got interested in this mission and moved his eyes around to inspect other missions to find none other than this to attract his attention, he decided to go and seek more intel about it.
The interior of the Mercenary department was arranged in a grand semi-circular fashion. Each board had a couple of spirit masters sitting behind two windows to deal with issues related to the missions of each region.
Luckily for William, the region he selected didn't attract much attention. He only saw two spirit masters standing on each window, asking for information regarding missions and such.
William selected one of the two little rows and stood there in wait. At the same time, he grew curious about the identities of those asking for missions in this region.
The region he selected was at least one week's march from here, not that popular thanks to its far away location. However, William selected it for different reasons.
"We already delivered the materials needed in the mission over to the Mercenary department at the Scorching Lands. I'm here to just get the mission marked as done and added to my team record."
The one in front of the window William selected said, while handing over a little token. The elder behind this window that got made out of steel like material received the token from a gap made for such things.
