Chapter 292 – A Pretty Picture (2/2)

These two were just some rash brats that didn’t know anything, rather than chasing them away, might as well get something from them… he could probably use that.

“Oh, I see… t-then let us take the ‘Strength Challenge’!” Lin Tian was still trying to act tough, but he was already panicking.

The ‘Strength Challenge’ that Hebrew was talking about sounded difficult. Although he diligently meditated regularly, but since he was injured before and he was talented, he currently only had the strength of an intermediate fifth-level. Even though he’s a respectable magician, but he might not meet the high threshold of being an alliance investigator.

“Hehe, if you want to take the challenge, we can do it right now!” When Hebrew saw Lin Tian hesitate, he immediately thew out some bait. He changed his initial disdainful attitude and familiarly pulled on Lin Tian’s arms and urged him, “Lin Tian, if you successfully get certified today, not only can you immediately take a mission and get a thick paycheck!”

“Really? But if I don’t…” Lin Tian was already moved and he looked back at Yao Zi, when he saw her blank look, he clenched his fist and made a decision, “Okay, let’s go then!”

“Haha, that’s it, that’s what it means to be young!” Hebrew laughed and patted Lin Tian’s shoulder with approval, then took the two of them towards the backyard.

Seeing that, the people remaining that were looking at the mission board smiled at each other and read the same emotions from each other’s eyes.

“Sigh, it’s been a while since I’ve seen investigators that young, so isn’t it fine for them to suffer a bit?”

“Of course, we were almost tricked by that damn Hebrew as well… forget it, young people learn from their mistakes.”

They bitterly smiled and shook their heads while following them and watched from a distance.

At that time, Lin Tian and Yao Zi already followed Hebrew to the backyard and stopped in the center.

“Do you see that?”

Hebrew pointed at a strangely human shaped piece of stone that was tens of meters away.

“That’s… a refined magic stone?”

Lin Tian fixed his eyes on it and noticed it was a doll made of refined magic stone. Rather than doll, it was more like a fat cylinder, other than sitting stably on the ground outside it was pretty much just a roly-poly toy.

“The challenge is simple, you just have to stand here and use magic to knock it down. Once you pass, I’ll immediately write your name into the investigator roster and give you your salary.” Hebrew painted him a pretty picture, and he was worried that Lin Tian would be nervous so he even consoled him, “Don’t worry, although the refined magic stone can absorb most of the magic, the inside is actually empty and just filled with wood. So according to the Four Kingdom Alliance’s requirements, fifth-level magic can knock it down.”

“Just fifth-level magic?” Lin Tian widened his eyes and asked in delight.

He was currently intermediate fifth-level and could proficiently cast fifth-level magic, especially ice magic, so it would be a piece of cake to knock it down!

It seems like he’ll get his first paycheck soon!

“Ah, that’s right, just fifth-level magic… hehe.”

Hebrew nodded and then unawaredly raised the corner of his mouth.
