Chapter 41 (1/2)
”Well, it looks like everyone is here, so we won't delay any more!” Baron Albert went to the center of the hall, clapped his hands, and drew everyone's attention. ”I'm glad you're all willing to participate in this reconnaissance operation. I won't introduce the contents of the operation any more. You've all heard about it before you came here.”
”What I want to say is that this reconnaissance mission is different from the usual one. I have informed the headquarters of the serious epidemic situation in Audi Asia through the magic device a few days ago. The headquarters specially allows the mission staff to get 10 mission points for each of them. ” Baron Albert smiled.
”10 task points?”
The Baron's words aroused the exclamation of all the exorcists, and immediately there was a lot of discussion in the hall.
”Lord Oddo, do you have a lot of points for 10 tasks?” Qin Lun asked the middle-aged man beside him.
”Ha ha, Dr. Stan is a newcomer. He doesn't know the task points system of our Exorcist organization. 10 task points are really rich rewards!” Audo explained softly.
”Generally, there are only 2 mission points for this kind of reconnaissance mission. The Exorcist needs to turn over 5 mission points to the organization every year to maintain the qualification of the Exorcist. 10 mission points is the amount of two years, that is to say, we have completed this reconnaissance mission, and we will not have to participate in any organizational action in the next two years. ”
With the introduction of Oddo, Qin Lun slowly understood the Exorcist's task integration system. It turns out that in addition to measuring the work quality of exorcists, this task score can also be used to exchange points for some precious items from headquarters.
The establishment of Exorcist organization has a history of more than 1000 years. In the past 1000 years, many powerful exorcists left their martial arts and spells to the organization before their death, so as to leave the inheritance to the excellent descendants. In addition, the Exorcist organization in the long-term exploration and Exorcism process, also got many precious treasures.
Money can't buy these martial arts inheritance and treasures. Only the task points obtained by exorcists can be exchanged in the organization. Of course, if an exorcist writes his or her favorite martial arts into a book and hands it over to the organization, or turns over the treasure the organization doesn't need, he or she can also exchange task points.
Although Oddo said that 10 points can let them not participate in other tasks in the next two years, in fact, no Exorcist can think of too many points except for some old and frail exorcists who cannot find successors. You should know that even if they sacrifice in the mission, this kind of integral can be inherited by descendants.
”Please be quiet, I haven't finished. This mission is very dangerous. 10 points will be issued before you leave. This time, we are not only detecting the movements of the Mayan witch, but we must find out whether the disease in the Odia area is caused by the Mayan witch! ” Said Baron Albert gravely.
The Exorcist in the hall calmed down and everyone showed a dignified expression. Qin Lun just read it for a moment, and immediately understood the meaning of the Baron's words. Ordinary reconnaissance missions, as long as the Exorcist is careful, can completely avoid the battle. However, if you want to find out whether the disease is a masterpiece of witches, you have to fight with Maia witch.
This is not a common reconnaissance mission, but a reconnaissance and combat mission! No wonder the Exorcist headquarters will give each person 10 task points. It's very dangerous to fight with the witch on the territory of the Mayan witch. Maybe these 20 exorcists will die in the Mayan forest.
”Well, I have finished what I want to say. Please think about it carefully. Before you leave tomorrow, you will have the chance to quit this task. Once you choose to join the task, you can't quit! ” Baron Albert said solemnly, ”now please go back to your room and have a rest. Albert castle is preparing dinner for you. Please have a drink later!”
The exorcists in the hall scattered one after another. Qin Lun was about to go back to his room, but he saw Bonnie coming to him and gave him a look. Qin Lun's heart moved and followed the blonde behind him silently. They came to a big living room in the main castle.
Baron Albert had waited here, and when he saw Bonnie coming with Qin Lun, he came up with a smile.
”Dr Stan, please take a seat!”
”Sir, what can I do for you?” Qin Lun saluted respectfully.
”Dr. Stan, we didn't expect that after reporting to the organization, the organization would ask us to turn the investigation task into a combat task.” Baron Albert said after a pause, ”we only wanted to train you as a new man, but if it's a combat mission, you don't have to take part in it. Otherwise, it's too dangerous for you! ”
”Lord, exorcists are a dangerous profession in themselves. Although I am just a new man, I also have the consciousness of sacrificing to protect the human world. What's more, I'm the doctor. Maybe I can save many exorcists' lives in this mission! ” Qin lunyi said in good words.
”Ha ha, father, you see, I said Dr. Stan would not be afraid.” Bonnie happily patted Qin Lun on the shoulder. ”Don't worry, I will bring Dr. Stan back intact.”
”Since that is the case, I will not say anything more. The will of the Exorcist is free, and any choice is the inevitable fate!” Baron Albert sighed and bowed slightly. ”Please accept my respect, Dr. Stan! Besides, this is for you. It can guarantee your safety to some extent. Bonnie will teach you how to use it! ”Baron Albert took a delicate gold scroll out of his arms and handed it to Qin Lun. The golden scroll is engraved with mysterious runes, with teak handles at both ends. It seems to be a very valuable treasure.
”Baroness, I can't accept such a valuable thing!” Qin Lun frowned slightly, but did not immediately take the gold scroll.
”Take it, Dr. Stan. This scroll is not for free. It needs to be exchanged with your 10 points!” Bonnie took the gold scroll from the Baron and put it into Qin Lun's hands. ”Follow me, I'll teach you how to use it!”
Qin Lun's eyes flickered, but he no longer refused. In fact, as long as there is a proper excuse, he certainly will not refuse to give his life an extra insurance.
After getting the gold scroll, Bonnie took Qin Lun to the only one of the four sub forts that the doctor had never been to.
Qin Lun's eyes brightened, which was an unexpected harvest. After entering the fort, he immediately found the unusual place of the fort. The corridor of this sub fort is dark and gloomy. The crystal lights on both sides are twice less than those of other sub fort, and there are no windows on the corridor that can see the outside world.
As the two men entered the upper level of the vice fort, Qin Lun finally understood the role of the vice fort. There are no rooms in the sub fort, only various cells and implements, ordinary wooden bars, iron door cells, water cells and so on.
Albert castle was a fortress of war hundreds of years ago. Each of the four sub fortresses has its own purpose. This sub fortress is a prison. Looking at the dark spots in the cell, Qin Lun could imagine how many witches and their magical creatures had been imprisoned here.
Boni takes Qin Lun to the front of a wooden fence cell in the middle of the vice fort. As soon as he enters here, Qin Lun immediately feels a strong smell coming to his nose.
However, he soon noticed the source of the stench, which was the smell of a giant in the cell. This is a huge black bear. Compared with ordinary black bears, this one is at least one-half bigger.
Although it is just lying on the ground sleeping, but under the visual inspection, the body length is at least 300 cm above, the body width is also bigger than the ordinary black bear for a whole circle. According to Qin Lun's previous books, this kind of black bear weighs at least one ton, maybe even two tons, heavier than a car in the old age of the earth.
”This...” Qin Lun pointed to the black bear in the cell, whose limbs and neck were locked by five thick chains, and looked at Bonnie in some confusion.
”Ha ha, its name is Ben, male. Now it's drugged. It's a fighting pet raised and trained by the Albert family. ” Bonnie smiled and said, ”of course, ordinary people can't command it, so you have to use the summoning scroll in your hand!”
