Blood tax

Chapter 125 Emergency Preparedness

The smile on the face of the high-level elf wizard is like a frozen lake in winter.He wasn't kidding, but he was genuinely happy with the results his actions would lead to.

The slender and sharp saber was cold, and Griffith was enveloped by the real killing intent, and his mind was almost blank.Under the horrific, if real danger, he was left with only one thought and immediately put it into action.

He wasn't joking, he couldn't care less about losing face at this time.

"Galadia, help!"

Griffith yelled.

It was such a shame to cry for help.Griffith felt that something very important in himself was shattered in this cry for help, and Sidious's face was filled with contempt and spurn for a moment.

"Sidious, if you dare to move again, I will strangle you to death."

A clear and agile voice sounded from around him, saving the frightened and ashamed Griffith from his fear.

Galadia didn't know when she woke up, staring viciously at her brother who was holding a sharp knife.

With a bored restrained breath, Sidious threw Griffith out who was panting.He looked at the little bastard who might abduct his sister, then at the magic weapon in his hand, and walked away without saying a word.

"What did he say to you?" The elf girl came to Griffith and sat on the grass with him.

Griffith opened his mouth, not knowing where to start...

"Don't look at him like this, in fact, he is quite grateful to you!" Galadia said seriously, "Let him go to the barracks to say hello and deter the bad guys."

"Really?"

"Of course, if it weren't for you this time, his lovely sister would be in danger."

……

"That's how it happened."

Griffith completed a lengthy report with no real content, concealed the trial of Galadia and many details about the black domain of the sealed item, and focused on the moment when the high-ranking wizard Sidious ended the sealed item. Helped him, and then sent the simple report in front of General Valens.

Wearing the gleaming fine mail armor produced by Canaan, he stood in the midst of the dangerous conspiracy vortex, and his mood was extraordinarily calm.

Sidious stood aside, looking indifferently at the humans in the room.

There were seven or eight officers and nobles in the small tent, stacked with stacks of files and maps.The general quietly flipped through the report submitted by the trainee knights, while the staff and officers around him stared silently at his nose and shoe tips.

what are they thinkingGriffith thought calmly.Are you wondering why the second-level squad leader didn't die?How should I explain to those big men who sent him here?Should I be given merit points and other rewards according to the system now, or call a team of halberd soldiers to kill me?
Hmph, you have already missed the best time to kill me.Now I have the protection of Sidious, as long as I return to Sonia, the Lamor House will immediately investigate the whole incident.

Galadia and Sonia will cover me, and it is impossible to send me on a death mission in the short term.

As long as you get through this stage, General Valens, I will come to you regardless of whether you know the conspiracy behind it or not.I'll write it down in my notebook later.

The general was silent for a minute, then looked up with a smile.

"You're doing well, young man, very well,
"It's a very dangerous mission, but the rewards are great, and you should be rewarded.

"Now, go to the quartermaster to receive your mission reward."

……

After successively eliminating the mountain monster, the blood baron, the quaxor aberration, and the eyeball monster that appeared in Hepu, Griffith's officially registered Sequence 7 powerful Extraordinary biological battle results have reached four.Of course, the results of the demon hunter captain Karius and the shamanized Conix cannot be said, and cannot be counted in the results.

Galadia verified the fifth battle result for his earth dragon residual Extraordinary characteristic, and the ownership still belongs to Griffith.

The quartermaster checked the Extraordinary characteristics on the spot, registered the kill record, sealed the letter with wax, and handed it over to the messenger to send to Varna.

"You will be awarded the Silver Eagle Medal, the second-level team leader, I have reported your situation according to the system,
"In addition to the shining medal, the accompanying rewards include 5 points of merit, and a monthly life-time allowance of 50 silver Lang, which can be used from the date of award to the day of your long sleep.

"The medal itself is an enchanted item, which has a certain protective ability. It can generate and maintain a layer of defensive shield for 30 seconds, which can resist a powerful physical or magical attack. Before using it for the first time, it needs to be fused with your spiritual wave. The shield is not easily disturbed by your own blood energy. This thing is especially effective for the defense against the dark arts."

That's great, Griffith looked eagerly at the quartermaster.

每月多了50银郎收入啊！现在我每月有100银郎薪水，50银郎序列8非凡者津贴和50银郎终身津贴了！
"Don't get excited, the production of this thing is not easy, and we don't have ready-made ones at hand," the quartermaster immediately interrupted his thoughts, "It still needs to be reported, approved, followed by a process, and issued by the responsible department. In a word , you can’t get it from us.”

After confirming this, the two came to talk about the previous credit.

Sidious didn't bother to wait for him to finish one thing at a time. After chatting with the general for a few words, he took his sister and left.

With his intervention, the entire barracks will realize that Griffith is not easy to mess with.

Griffith compensated 15 units of potential potion and 1 unit of refined psionic potion with the quest rewards, recovering the pledged Extraordinary characteristics.

However, he suddenly discovered that he had made a serious omission, the money used to purchase another 5 units of potential medicine was not enough.

Griffith had only 556 silver francs before the mission of Neopolis, and the bonus given to him by the mission on the island was only 100 silver lang. He only has 150 silver Lang left to buy textbooks for the new semester.

After handing over the poison sac to Sonia, the girl gave him some potion ingredients and 1100 silver lang, and the remaining money has not been carefully settled with him.

The quartermaster quickly calculated: "5 units of potential potions cost 2600 silver lang, and a handling fee of 100 silver lang will be charged."

Hey, it's more expensive than the Earl's Mansion!In this way, Griffith's shortfall is 666 silver Lang.

"Isn't it 500 silver Lang a unit!"

"If you can buy a unit of 1 silver lang, why don't you buy it yourself earlier?"

Griffith almost lost his breath.It's still a conscience to dare to sell the Earl's Mansion to him by force!
"What about the handling fee?"

"Stamp duty and transaction tax, as well as the management fee of our brigade, it's only 3.85%. It's cheap!"

"Could it be less, I don't think it's reasonable!" Griffith had already started touching the hilt of his sword.

"Okay, that's 50 silver Lang handling fee, 2650 silver Lang potion, what do you think?" The quartermaster squeezed his rat-tailed mustache and looked at him with a smile, "If you think this is unreasonable, you can kill him here Me, look at my monthly salary of 50 Silver Lang, my good brothers agree or not."

Of course, Griffith couldn't turn his face and kill the quartermaster for this little money, he could only pay honestly.

"How much is the Extraordinary characteristic of Sequence 9?"

"500 a piece, no second price, whether you want to sell it or not," the quartermaster looked at him hey, "this time you have no choice but to slam the door and leave. My monthly salary of 50 silver Lang will not be accepted by my good brothers."

what--!I was cheated, the market price of the Sequence 9 characteristic and the potential potion are basically the same, why didn't I buy more in the Earl's Mansion!Why didn't I settle the money with Sonia?Why didn't I ask Sidious for a loan?

Griffith regretted it too much, and he lost 200 silver Lang when he entered and exited.

"Brother," the quartermaster poured Griffith a cup of tea from a dirty cup, "you have to take a long-term view, and don't just worry about the little money in front of you."

"In the long run, what else can I do?" Griffith reluctantly carried out the delivery, paid 1700 silver Lang in cash, and then handed over two pieces of Sequence 9 Extraordinary Characteristics.

"Tsk, you stupid wood," the quartermaster laughed, and drank the tea he poured for Griffith in one gulp, "you can tell this story to the noble ladies when you go back, and you can spend 200 silver lang, My greedy and stupid Pomeranian smiled, this deal is worth it!"

Griffith, who was about to die of anger, packed up his things and walked out the door. Halfway through, he suddenly remembered something, and turned to ask the quartermaster who had earned him an extra 3 Sequence 9 characteristic benefit fees and 200 silver Lang: "Your Excellency What do you call it?"

Write down your name when you turn around, and when I come to Valens when I become stronger, don't even think about running away.

The quartermaster was turning the money over and over again, and replied cheerfully:
"My name has long been forgotten, and everyone calls me—

"Gold mine."

……

Griffith, who had completed the handover of the task rewards, returned to the general's tent, bid farewell to them and prepared to join Sonia.He hopes to borrow a military horse so that he can travel as soon as possible.

Not waiting for him to make a request.A messenger ran in and presented a sealed letter.

"Report, dispatch!"

what happened?new order?Someone else wants to hurt me?
Griffith pressed his feathers to fencing.If someone in the military camp was against him now, he would do it immediately, and then escaped while taking advantage of the chaos.Sidious and the others have just left, and there are people who can testify if there is a conflict, so that they will not be framed for rebellion.If it was a new death mission, he would finish off the escorted soldiers on the way, and then seek refuge with Galadia's brother.

Although Sidious was as scary as the devil, after calling out to his sister for help, having lost something, he completely let go.When it was time for his life to be at stake, Griffith's first thought was to find him.

"Apprentice knight," General Valens suddenly interrupted Griffith's reverie, "Pack up your equipment immediately, and go to the military supply department to get two army horses and borrow them."

"Yes, sir." Griffith was a little puzzled, but he still pressed his heels together and replied loudly.

"You may want to know what happened," General Valens handed over the letter in his hand, "Go and read it carefully, this is a report on the battle situation. You must return to the building quickly according to the deployment of your superiors."

Griffith took two steps forward and took the letter from the leader.Not waiting for him to check the contents inside.General Valens stood up from his seat and shouted to the officers in the camp:
"Assemble the team and prepare for emergency combat.

"I issued an order in my name, and the friendly forces quickly approached our department."
