Other Races Guidebook

You just got back home with terrible bad news.

The caravan that hired your mercenary group before, on the grounds of default and fraud, sued your mercenary group to the mercenary union and filed a staggering amount of compensation.

The caravan’s loss this time was quite heavy, because the supplies transported were not ordinary items, but expensive spices used by the upper class and silver moon gauze imported at a high price from the elves. This cloth was a specialty of the elves. , Is woven with special crafts and materials. When clothes are worn on the body, they will produce a strange streamer effect due to the change of light. It is like putting a beautiful moonlight on the body, so it is extremely popular among human nobles and royal women. welcome.

In contrast, the price of this cloth is much more expensive than ordinary, but due to the scarcity of supplies, even if the price remains high, it is still sought after. Originally, the caravan wanted to ship this batch of cloth to the capital and sell it to those assets. The rich and wealthy merchants and nobles wanted to make a lot of money, but no one expected that they were attacked by Medusa in the middle. The expensive cloth was affected and damaged in the battle, and the loss was immeasurable.

The person in charge of the caravan put most of the responsibility on the mercenary group, thinking that it was the mercenary group that had concealed the existence of the half-blood dragon, and it attracted Medusa.

And to make matters worse, the people in the mercenary group were also afraid of getting into trouble. Except for a few old people who established the mercenary group early in the morning, most of them couldn't wait to break away from the mercenary group after the incident.

Each mission mercenary union will give certain points to the mercenary group that completes the mission according to the mission completion degree and evaluation level. When the points are accumulated, they can be upgraded to a higher level. If the mission fails, some points will also be deducted. If the points are deducted too much, it will be reduced by one level from the original level.

Your sister’s mercenary group belongs to the middle and upper reaches of the B level. Although it cannot be compared with those strong A-level and S-level mercenary groups, it also has more than ten years of old qualifications and is considered a good reputation in the industry. The old-brand mercenary group was originally based on this trend. As long as you save two or three years of points, your mercenary group level can be directly upgraded to A level, but because of this accident, the mercenary group fell directly to C level. , But also facing huge monetary compensation.

If you can't overcome this difficulty, then this precarious mercenary group is likely to be in danger of disbanding.

If there is no choice, most people will not choose to do this kind of high-risk occupations without safety protection and accident compensation, and don't know when they will die on the mission. If they die, saving more money will not help, so Most mercenaries don't have the habit of saving money. Once they get the commission, they will go to pubs, casinos and other entertainment venues to spend and play, and use the extravagant life of drunken gold fans to anaesthetize their own sex.

Therefore, it is extremely difficult for the mercenary group to pay such compensation at once.

You’ve never seen your sister’s reluctant smile on her face like this. Obviously, in order not to worry you, she didn’t tell you too much about the current difficult situation of the mercenary group, and she knew that with your senior priest’s light mage Identity, even the S-level mercenary group will welcome you to join, but you are succumbing to a small B-level mercenary group for her, for which she always feels wronged to you.

But you never feel wronged. Although your sister usually does things a bit unreliable and always careless, but you know that she actually cares about loving you. In order to let you live a stable life, she was only twelve years old. Follow the adults to go out to do difficult and dangerous tasks. When you are tested to have magical talents, you will not hesitate to borrow debts from the mercenary union and do your best to provide you with school. She is young, and she is burdened by her peers. Heavy burdens and responsibilities, but she has never made any demands and rewards for you.

There was a time when you couldn't bear it, crying and threw into her arms to make her stop working so hard. Even if you couldn't become a mage, you still had other choices.

But your sister forbids you to give up halfway. She touched your head and smiled as she looked at you with tears in her eyes: "It's not a matter of course for your sister to protect your sister. It won't be enough to protect your sister when you grow up. ."

You feel very lucky to have a sister who loves you so much. She has suffered too much for you before, so when you have the ability to repay her, you can't help but indulge and take care of her without a bottom line.

In the past few years, you have saved a lot of money thriftily. You originally wanted to buy a small manor of your own in the suburbs, so that you don’t have to squeeze in that small hotel and you can go back anytime with your sister. Belongs to your own home.

However, this accident disrupted your plan. You found that even if you took out all your deposits, the amount of compensation required by the caravan was still a lot short of compensation. In order to make up for the rest, you had to temporarily mortgage your senior priest medal. It was given to the union and it was exchanged for three thousand gold coins.

The gold coins in this world are converted from the prices of your previous life. A gold coin is nearly a thousand soft sister coins. Common people generally use lower-value copper and silver coins. High-value currencies like gold coins rarely do. Used.

So to sum it up, your senior pastor medal is still very valuable, and it doesn't waste your time and energy to pass the senior pastor's assessment.

However, senior pastors like you who are so poor that they can mortgage the medals of senior pastors that they finally get are quite rare.

After all, normal senior pastors are serving in the Holy See and the palace. They have never worried about money such as vulgar things. If you know that you are also a senior pastor, you will be shocked.

Your sister was very angry when she learned that you pledged the medal to the union. She resolutely refused to accept your money. She has a strong sense of responsibility and does not want to drag you in, who has nothing to do with the accident.

But you know, your sister has a deep affection for the mercenary group. She has been guarding the mercenary group since its establishment. She is not just regarded as a lucrative job, especially when her master was originally established. The head of the mercenary group was retired because of his family and his body. Almost all of this mercenary group was taken over by your sister. If the mercenary group really disbanded because of this accident, she would be the one who suffered the most. .

In the end, your sister still reluctantly compromised with your persistence. After paying a huge amount of compensation, your mercenary group still survived in this highly competitive industry, only to be upgraded from C to B again. , And in the case of a sharp drop in internal staff, it is estimated that it will take a long time to work hard.

After finishing this matter, you breathed a sigh of relief. When you went to the vegetable market to buy some fresh ingredients and returned home, you found a silent and tall figure in the shadow of the corridor.

You froze for a moment, then smiled at him, "Do you want to come in and sit?"

The other party did not respond to you, but silently looked at you with those horrible golden vertical pupils.

You first walked into the house, put the ingredients in the kitchen, then poured a glass of water in front of him, "Drink some water first, do you want to eat something today? I'll make it for you."

The moment you turned around, your wrist was caught.

"Don't you... hate me?"

A rough, husky, dry voice that seemed to have been smoked by flames came slowly from behind you.

You turned your head and tilted your head in a daze, "Why do you hate you? You haven't done anything wrong, ah... by the way, I haven't thanked you yet..."

"Oh, thank me?"

The dragon man murmured like self-deprecating, and was suddenly angered by you, grabbing your shoulders and pressing you behind the door, the cold golden vertical pupils contracted into a tight straight line in a hunting state, which is different from the gloomy fangs of a human With the threatening growl in the throat, the original handsome facial features became extremely gloomy and distorted. The dark eyes staring at you have completely lost their sense and humanity, leaving only primitive violence and destruction. All the fierce and bloody instincts seem to tear you apart in the next instant.

"Do you think I will believe your lie?"

Larut pulled the corner of his mouth disdainfully, and his eyes were cold and mocking, looking at you.

"You must hate me to death in your heart, just like those timid and hypocritical guys, all resenting that if it weren't for me to invite Medusa, how could your mercenary group end up like this? Human beings are hypocritical..."

"Wait."

You interrupted him and slid down in front of him like a boneless loach. You got out of Larut’s arms and ran into the kitchen under the eyes of the dragon to fiddle for a while, He brought out a plate of cut fruit pieces, walked in front of the dragon man, and then picked up a small piece with his hands and stuffed it into his mouth unexpectedly.

"..."

The dragon man opened his eyes slightly and stared at you gloomily, and neither did he vomit or swallow.

"Not poisonous."

To prove your own words, you also picked up a piece in front of his eyes, chewed it a few times, and swallowed it.

Larut glared at you fiercely, but didn't spit out anything, so he ate it obediently.

"How is it, is it delicious?" You asked curiously.

"..."

Seeing that he was silent, you put the plate with the pieces of fruit on the table, your eyes fell on the dragonman, looked at him carefully for a moment, and then beckoned to him.

Larut stared at you with unspeakable cold eyes for a while, and finally walked towards you obediently.

After he approached, you stretched out your hand and pulled at the corner of his clothes.

Larut quickly grabbed your hand, and his expression was inexplicably uncomfortable. He looked down at you with cold eyes, "What do you want?"

Because of the habit he developed in the past, when talking to you at close range, Larut would always bend down and lower his head subconsciously, accommodating your huge height ratio to him.

And when you lowered his head inertially, you suddenly raised your other hand and knocked his head neither lightly nor heavy.

"You..." Longren glared at you angrily.

"This is revenge against you." You straightened up your chest and complained confidently: "Who made you be so fierce to me just now."

Larut was stunned, and turned his head slightly with a'tsk', his expression was a little bit of disgust and speechlessness, but he didn't do anything to you.

"Right! And Mr. Dubin..." You suddenly remembered your old account, with obvious dissatisfaction and complaints, "He didn't provoke you again, why are you fighting him?"

"He snatched you away." Longren said coldly, as if he didn't feel that he had done anything wrong.

You said angrily: "What then? Do you want to snatch me back?"

Larut returns you a cold look of'what's wrong'.

You almost laughed at him, and retaliated by poking your finger at the soft flesh on his waist, "You are ashamed to say, did you know that I was very uncomfortable at the time, and I was snatched as a toy by you. It’s not that I didn’t have any magic powers then, I must beat you up!"

"You can't beat me." The dragon man coldly told the cruel facts, and after a pause, he seemed to be a little lacking in confidence, his voice was lower, and he said to himself as if shirking responsibility: "How do I know you? Still so weak..."

Then he stared at you with a very dissatisfied look, "Obviously that stupid dog picked it up first, why did you only beat me? You are too partial."

"..." You have an inexplicable sense of powerlessness to face an unreasonable and savage girlfriend.

"Okay, you won." You helplessly raised the white flag, and when you were behind, you suddenly remembered something and threatened with a serious expression: "But you can't play with me as a toy next time, otherwise I will really be angry!"

The dragon man lowered his eyebrows, using a very strange, like what you said that was incomprehensible, his tone was also extremely serious, and he declared every word: "I didn't treat you as a toy."

You blinked blankly, a little missed his brainwaves, then pursed your lips and smiled and turned off this weird topic: "Believe it or not, I am really grateful for this matter. You, if something happened to my sister, I would really regret that I blamed myself for a lifetime, and I don’t think this accident was caused by you. You are only one of the victims of this disaster. You have done a very good job of saving them from Medusa."

Larut stared at you deeply for a moment, and asked incomprehensibly: "Don't you blame others at all?"

You think about it, and shook your head slightly, "There is nothing to complain about. Life is always full of unexpected accidents. You are very lucky to live well."

After a pause, you sighed softly; "If you are too greedy, you will be punished."

Whether it is the caravan that puts the blame on the mercenary group, or those who left the mercenary group at a critical moment, you do not resent their selfish behavior, because this is the instinct of people to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages, and no one will be missed. Unreasonably kind to sacrifice himself to carry these responsibilities.

Even if it was you, if this happened to someone else, you wouldn't be able to take out all the savings for the other person or even mortgage the priest's medal.

In fact, you, like them, are nothing more than ordinary mortals, just trying to survive in this world.

Although you haven’t seen Medusa with your own eyes, from other mercenaries and adventurers, you have also heard about the terrible creatures. Adventurers and mercenaries who have been attacked by such dark monsters survive. The probability is less than 20%. Even if you survive by chance, your spirit will be greatly harmed and sequelae. Therefore, your mercenary group can come back alive under the attack of Medusa. In fact, it is already extremely difficult. Up.

Although this accident turned you into a pauper again, and even the Senior Pastor Medal was mortgaged, you feel that the money will be earned back sooner or later, but once the life is gone, even the God of Light will not be able to recover.

Mercenary is a dangerous profession that is always accompanied by high risks. If it is only the lowest level of the task of finding objects, it is okay. Once the level of the mercenary group reaches the C level, the difficulty of the task will also increase.

The level of the mercenary group corresponds to the level of the released task. Generally, it is not possible to cross-level tasks, because low-level tasks will naturally be picked up by low-level mercenary groups. If they are monopolized by high-level mercenary groups, the others The novice mercenary group is difficult to develop. In order to maintain this balance, mercenary workers will not allow the mercenary group to take on tasks randomly. If the low-level mercenary group wants to take up a higher-level task, they must pay A certain deposit is given to the union, and if the mission fails, it will not be refunded. This is also to give the novice mercenaries a realistic lesson.

Every year, some reckless and impulsive novice mercenaries are too conceited and overestimate their own strengths. They have crossed the ranks. They have taken over high-level missions. Mission failures and even the bad news of destroying the group are not rare. As for the unfounded rumors that mixed races will attract Medusa , In fact, you don’t really believe it, because you have counted the number of mercenary groups attacked by Medusa every year and found that even if there are no mixed races, they will still be attacked, but these mercenary groups and adventurers attacked , All have a common feature.

That is, there are usually some strong strong men in the team. Medusa seems to be more interested in the flesh and blood of the strong, and the offspring of mixed races combine the natural advantages of the two races and tend to be stronger than pure humans. Physical fitness and excellent talent, so mixed races rarely have weak, which is why it is said that Medusa prefers mixed races.

Of course this is just your guess.

"Mei." The dragon man suddenly called you in a low voice.

"Huh? What's the matter?" You regained your senses and looked at Larut with some surprise.

Because Larut doesn't seem to like to call you by name, many times he calls you "you" or "idiot".

"Are you really a human?"

The dragon man murmured dullly, and his tone was harder and sharper than before, obviously melting a lot.

You curled your lips, jokingly replied, "Probably so."

Larut was stunned, staring at you straight as if he had never seen you before, his eyes were so strong that it made you feel a little uneasy.

You blinked in confusion, your eyes stayed in front of the dragon man’s forehead for a few seconds, and the eyes suddenly lit up for several times. After turning around and walking into the bedroom for a while, after groping for a while, when you walked out again, you got a flicker in your hand. Sharp scissors with cold light.

"Lalut, come and sit down."

You showed a clever and harmless smile, and beckoned to him like a puppy.

The dragon man did not listen to you this time, but immediately took a step back vigilantly.

It's like anticipating what you will do to him next.

You approach him.

He backed away again.

Obviously the two are completely opposite in terms of size and momentum, but you, who are obviously on the weak side, have the upper hand.

It's like a ferocious Tibetan Mastiff with nowhere to retreat driven by a kitten just learning to walk.

"It will be fine in a while, don't be afraid."

"……do not come."

"I have practiced the technique very well now, you can try it."

"……leave me alone!"

Listening to the fierce sound coming from the wooden house, Aleuros and Dubin Qiqi, who stood outside the door, fell into strange silence.

In the end, the Orc, whose face was getting darker and darker, couldn't help it anymore, kicked it out, and the fragile wooden door fell down.

After finally driving the dragon man to the corner, you who were about to hold the scissors to his hair to prepare for the'attack', turned your head to look at the collapsed door and two uninvited guests standing at the door. One pump.

"Excuse me... are you here to collect debts?"

Seeing them look unkind, the only reason you can think of is this.

Dubin's expression was stiff, and he withdrew his feet casually, turning around and walking towards the aisle outside very calmly.

You find that he seems to be on the same hand.

"Miss May, excuse me."

Alurios calmly ignored the strange atmosphere in the room, and gave you an elegant and gentle smile.

"Are you interested in mermaid breeders?"
