Chapter 131 Tanis¡¯ recommendation, Golden Scale Adventure Team
All three of them were silent.
The half-elf is right. Through coordination with nature rather than belief in gods, druids not only have spellcasting abilities comparable to priests, but also have their own unique signature ability - wild transformation. Powerful druids can not only transform into the animals and plants they are familiar with, but can even transform into the pure four basic elements, and fully obtain the corresponding supernatural abilities.
Whether it is a modern Druid or those crazy ancient Druids, just like any spellcasting profession, they themselves are strong men standing at the top of the pyramid of the entire society.
"Your Excellency, you mean that the Cult of Scourge that appeared this timeis related to those ancient Druid?" Sebastian asked seriously with a secret sigh in his heart.
"You are right. The Cult of Scourge is a branch of the sect that remains from ancient Druid." Tanis replied seriously, "And, I must remind you, it is not a sect that only absorbs human members. Organization. As far as I know, there is a small group of more extreme elven druids who also"
"Thanks to your Excellency, I think I have a rough idea of ??how troublesome this matter is." Sebastian said with a wry smile.
If possible, no one wants to conflict with those arrogant elves. It's not that people can't bear to get rid of exquisite things, but being an immortal species is already the greatest asset of an elf. Compared with the life expectancy of humans, which is less than a hundred years, the vast majority of elves can live over 800 years old if they are free from illness and disaster. Those high elves with pure blood even have a basic life span of more than a thousand years. It's hard for ordinary people to imagine what it's like to live for thousands of years. You know, even the Kingdom of Dravel itself only has a history of a thousand years! Summer insects cannot speak of ice. It is not difficult to understand an elf with a lifespan ten times that of a human being, no matter how arrogant he is.
Time itself is the greatest weapon for the elves. The elf's coming-of-age ceremony is held when he is one hundred and twenty years old, and there is a long period of study before that. The elves attach great importance to magic and also train bows and arrows and swordsmanship. No matter how quiet and peaceful his personality is, no matter how mediocre his talent is, no matter how absent-minded he is during training, after decades or hundreds of years, even a stubborn person should be enlightened. Among the elves traveling on the continent far away from home, there are very few weaklings with no strength. Most of them are skilled in bow and sword, and occasionally there are a few who can perform a few simple magic tricks.
If it weren¡¯t for the fact that the existing population of elves was too small, this beautiful continent would have had nothing to do with humans. Even though the golden age of elves has passed, it still leaves a strong influence on the continent.
Originally it was just a very ordinary task, but now some elf druid was found in various twists and turns. Sebastian also secretly scratched his head, feeling somewhat helpless. At this stage of his growth, he had no intention of coming into conflict with any fanatic who claimed to be a guardian of nature. Therefore, if it was impossible to do anything, he could only choose to give up the mission. It's just that in this case, not being able to get the magic robe is secondary. Once he carries the title of loser, it is almost foreseeable that it will cause more troubles in the future.
"Now that you have enough understanding of the situation in Taxaros, let's get straight to the point." Sebastian tapped the chair handle with his index finger and said slowly, "Do you know a suitable candidate? Can you solve this problem for me? I will be happy to pay a commensurate reward."
"Don't worry, money may not be everything, but it can undoubtedly solve most of the problems in the world." Tanis replied with a smile, "I happen to know a very reputable adventure team, and I believe they will be happy to take you on. After all, you don¡¯t need them to break into the headquarters of the Reconciliation Order, right? What you need is just to solve the current conflict in Taksharos, and there can be more than one way to solve the problem.¡±
"Then I'll trouble you." Sebastian nodded slightly.
"Please enjoy some snacks and relax for a while." Tanis raised his right hand and gestured a few times, and a waiter quickly came forward to serve tea, "Please allow me to leave for a while, and I will come back later."
Watching the half-elf leave, Arati suddenly reminded him: "Sir, this is not a good place to talk. If the so-called Heavenly Punishment Religion finds out about us, unpleasant things may happen to us"
Now that he has sworn allegiance to young Isabel, Arati is not the type to hold on to his arrogance. The achievements of the young man next to him are enough to deserve the honorific title. His status as a knight was nothing more than that. A magician was a respected character throughout the continent.
"Don't worry, none of those words just nowWords can travel three meters away from us. Sebastian replied with a smile, and then asked, "What do you think of this legendary hero?" "
"I have heard of the name of the Wind of the Battlefield even outside of Dravelle. But when I saw it today, I was inevitably a little disappointed." Arati knew that the young man had his own mysterious magic to ensure that the news would not be leaked. After pondering for a moment, he answered word by word.
"Oh, is it because he doesn't live up to his name?" Sebastian picked up the teacup, took a sip, and spoke in a relaxed tone.
"That's not the case. It's easy to know from the test just now. I'm afraid his strength is even better than mine, and even his fighting methods are similar to mine. You know, the use of dual weapons is not simply about wielding two weapons. That's all, without great talent, no matter how hard you practice, it will only be half the result with twice the result. It is absolutely impossible for a guy who is famous for his dual weapons to not have a few brushes in his hands." Alati explained honestly, "Maybe it's him He has been running a tavern for too long. I always feel vaguely that his ferocity has been worn away by the city of Saurons, and he is too smooth and worldly. Compared with the generous spirit described in the legend, it is really a bit"
"Hahaha, is it possible that you are also one of his admirers?" The young man understood the meaning of Arati's words and couldn't help laughing, causing the guests at the table to roll their eyes.
It sounds funny, but it¡¯s actually not surprising. Although Tanis looks a bit younger than Arati, he is actually old enough to be the latter's great-grandfather. The legend of the half-elf's adventures was widely circulated through those good-hearted bards. It is unknown how many children who dreamed of wielding a sword to rescue the beautiful princess from the evil dragon's mouth grew up under his stories.
Arati snorted in displeasure, unwilling to answer the topic, turned around and began to concentrate on enjoying the performance of the female elf music master.
Tanis didn¡¯t leave for too long, but within one meal, he was back. Behind the half-elf were several men and women dressed in different costumes, presumably the group of adventurers he was about to introduce.
"Sir, these outstanding gentlemen and ladies are the most famous elite team in the area recently - the Golden Scale." Tanis stretched out his hand to signal without hesitation, complimented Sebastian and followed him. The five people in the group then turned around and introduced, "Guys, let's get to know each other. This is our youngest genius magician in Saurons, Lord Sebastian. Your Lordship has an important mission to announce. I I recommended you to him. Come on, briefly introduce yourself."
The leader among the five was obviously the young man wearing plain silver full-body armor and the most complete equipment. He has short blond hair, a resolute face, and radiant eyes that show his absolute and unwavering confidence in himself. Hearing the words of the half-elf, he took a step forward, nodded and saluted, and then said loudly: "Nice to meet you, young magician. My name is Zerfas, and I am inspired by my lord Versetti, the god of justice and fairness. The inspired paladin is currently traveling around and testing himself."
"Nice to meet you, the benefactor of Versidi." Sebastian politely returned the greeting, and even Arati straightened his body to show respect, "It is really a paladin who can meet the holder of the scales. It surprises me. I heard that your number is quite small. Why don¡¯t you introduce your friends to me?¡±
"My Lord advocates non-violent justice. Contrary to the unscrupulous evil god like the goddess of revenge, the path he takes is much more difficult. It is not surprising that there are fewer believers." Zefas explained with a smile, and then moved half of the way. The four people behind Bu Zang introduced, "This is Gru, a ranger who has studied the archery genre and is very good at tracking."
A handsome man wearing emerald green leather armor and carrying a recurve bow nodded without saying a word, indicating that he was the one talking.
Another half-elf! Sebastian's eyes lingered on that man for a moment and he quickly came to this conclusion. He couldn't help but glance at the smiling Tanis, and wondered if it was because of this man that he recommended this team? But forget it, the young magician is not that curious.
"This is the Trap Master Nightbird. As you can see, she is a kender. Although her personality is a little too lively, her professional skills are indeed first-rate."
When Zephas said that he was too lively, Nightwing, who was petite and not even taller than a paladin's belt, kicked him secretly in dissatisfaction. As a result, the armor made a loud sound, which attracted everyone's attention. She smiled sheepishly, and her tongue sticking out was so cute.
"Dwarf Old Ducan, he has served as a professional shield defender in the clan for fifty years. He has rich experience. As long as he is not drunk, he is the most reliable among us.warrior. Zefas shook his head and continued to introduce, "The last one is this big guy. He is a barbarian from the far north. He is not very fluent in common language, but once there is a fight, one of him can defeat him in his rage." Three. Well, these are the general conditions of our golden scale. "
Perhaps because he was not used to the luxurious atmosphere around him, the dwarf loosened his armor uncomfortably. On the contrary, the tall and strong barbarian was completely attracted by the beautiful female elf on the stage, without even blinking. blink.
"The composition of the members is quite balanced. It is indeed a good team. Yes, I am very satisfied." Sebastian applauded with a comforting hand, "Then Mr. Tanis has told you about my commission, right? You may need it. Going deep into the forest, Mr. Gru's skills can play a big role. In addition, with you as a paladin, injuries can be treated immediately, and safety is more guaranteed."
"Yes, I have roughly listened to Mr. Tannis's request." Zefas made a fist with his right hand, placed it on his chest, and said firmly, "Please rest assured, in the name of justice, Taksaros will be restored." The peace of the past.¡±
"Then everything is left to you, the benefactor. I hope that with the blessing of God Versetti, you can solve the problem without using violence this time." Sebastian smiled, "Now, let's talk about your problems. Get paid.¡±
"Originally, I shouldn't charge fees for serving a just cause, but" Zefas seemed a little shy, "But my teammates also have various needs, so"
"I understand, the benefactor." Sebastian understood the interface, "Just think of your part as my contribution to the God of Justice."
"Thank you for your understanding." Zefas nodded, "According to the rules, you can ask our intermediary, Mr. Tannis, to estimate a suitable price and pay it in one go; you can also choose to hire on a daily basis, and our quotation for the golden scale It is twenty gold coins per day until the task is handed over. Since you are a magician, you are welcome to pay with magic items, and we will be happy to give you a discount."
"Well, the price is quite reasonable." Sebastian turned to look at Tanis and asked politely, "If you plan to pay it all in one go, what is your estimate?"
"If it's just to resolve the conflict, I think three thousand gold coins is a very reasonable price. Of course, you can wait until the task is completed before paying. Now you only need to pay a 10% deposit. What do you think? ?" the half-elf replied with a smile.
"Let's settle it like this." Sebastian took out a bunch of tied magic scrolls from the dimensional bag, threw it to Zefas, and said, "This is a scroll that charms humans, just use it as a deposit, maybe You will still need it when performing tasks. Since you have a trap master, it should not be a problem to interpret the basic spell scrolls. Well, remember, if things cannot be done, there is no need to be too reluctant and try to collect as much information as possible. Just bring it back."
"Thank you for your concern." Zephas handed the scroll to the night bird who kept tugging at him, and said sincerely, "You are such a good person. May my Lord bless you."
