Weird Wizarding World

   Chapter 24 Assignment

  Colin walked slowly in the small city, and according to the address given by the wizard in gray, he came to a rare three-story building in the center of the city.

   He was a little surprised, wasn't this the place where he exchanged a limit-breaking ignition technique with the Berkeley wizard before?

   On second thought, this is also normal, after all, Berkeley should also be a guard.

  Colin stepped forward and asked someone to ask. Go to a room in the middle of the first floor.

   hadn't even walked yet, when I faintly heard the sound of a conversation coming from inside.

The    great knight and the cultivation of the intermediate apprentice make his five senses extremely sharp now.

   "... Recently, there have been several beasts running out of the dark forest, and the colleagues there are miserable... I heard that another wizard died, it seems to be from the Perco gang."

   "Another wizard died?! Alas, the beast is getting stronger and stronger..."

   "I also heard from the brothers in the east of the city that their beach...is not peaceful every night recently."

   The voice of the conversation was silent for a moment, and then it continued.

   "It's better that we are here... There's a new dancer in the Great Axe Tavern, you know..."

   Tuk Tuk Tuk.

   At this time, Colin had come to the door, raised his hand and knocked on the wooden door.

   "...Please come in."

The voice of the conversation in    stopped for a while, and then one of them shouted.

  Colin pushed the door in.

   Two middle-level apprentices, one fat and one lean, sat behind the black-brown wooden table.

   "I'm new here to report." Colin said calmly as he approached, handing over his credentials and school badge by the way.

   "Welcome, our guards don't come often, you sit first." A surprise flashed on the face of the fatter wizard on the right, he took the certificate badge with a smile, and said kindly.

   After verifying the credential and badge, the fat wizard handed them back to Colin, then continued:

   "Colin, right? My name is Leighton Jeremy. Just call me Leighton. Next to me is Jerome Elton... Go and get some equipment with him first."

   "I'm going to ask Lord Hongyan to give you a place to go."

   After saying that, Leighton gave Jerome a wink.

   "Follow me." Thin Jerome stood up and said with a smile.

  Colin nodded and followed behind him.

   The two went upstairs and walked on the stairs, Colin asked:

   "Senior Jerome, I don't know where Leiden-senpai is talking about..."

   "The place is to say that you will work in that area of ​​the city. Blackrock City is not small. There are three guards stationed here."

   "One is the headquarters here, and the other two are in the east and west of the city."

   Colin nodded and asked again, "I wonder what is the difference between these three places?"

   "...There is no difference, the treatment is the same, but the east and west of the city are far from the center of the city, and they are not so lively and prosperous." Jerome replied after a pause.

  Colin nodded, his face calm.

   The two quickly came to the room at the end of the second floor.

   Jerome motioned for Colin to wait outside, and then opened the door himself.

   After a while, he came out with a black wizard robe.

   "This is the shaman robe uniform of the guards. It needs to be worn when on duty on weekdays. It has a constant cleansing technique, so you don't need to worry about cleaning." He unfolded the shaman robe, showed it to Colin, and handed it to him.

  ………………

   Downstairs.

   The fat wizard Leighton was speaking to the messenger formation.

   "...too few, sixty magic stones are too few, at least eighty!"

   "…what, too much?"

   "You think too much and I think too little! It's not like you don't know how hard it is for us to have a newcomer."

   "If I didn't think we had a good relationship, we would have sold it to someone else! Do you know how many people in your city west want to be transferred back to the headquarters?"

   "Everyone else has produced at least 80..."

   "Okay, okay, isn't this bad?"

   "Don't worry, you don't worry about me doing things, can I smash my own signboard?"

  Leighton closed the witch formation with satisfaction, and in addition to the 30 magic stones distributed to Jerome, he had another 50 magic stones in his account!

   He took out the pen and spread the file on the table.

   Then at the back of the upper west part of the file, Colin Leonard's name was slowly added.

   This is not the first time he has done such a thing, and at first he would have been frightened for fear of being discovered.

   But now he is already familiar with it, especially after pulling Jerome, who manages the files together, into the water, he is even more reckless.

   In his view, this is a matter of no loss to all.

   He got the magic stone, and his friend in the west of the city got his wish and was transferred to the headquarters.

   As for Colin,

  Young people are not used to the leisurely life here at the headquarters.

   Chengxi is more suitable for him.

   Not only is the treatment the same as the headquarters, but it is also close to the dark forest.

  The scenery is beautiful, and from time to time there are beasts running out of it to accompany them to practice witchcraft.

   Ferocious beasts are good things, they can exchange their skin, skin, blood, and blood for money, and the people in the west of the city are much richer than them!

   The more Leiden sat in the chair, the more thoughtful he felt, that no one's interests were harmed... This is obviously a win-win situation!

  '...This time I have 50 magic stones in my account, and I can go to the Great Axe Tavern for a bit of fun...'

   'I just don't know whether to find a half-elf or a merman, hehe...'

   crunch——

   At this moment, the wooden door opened, and Jerome returned with Colin.

  Leighton adjusted his sitting posture, put on a gentle smile again, and nodded slightly after meeting Jerome's inquiring gaze.

   "I already asked Lord Hongyan, Colin, the place you were assigned to is the west of the city." He looked at Colin and said.

   Colin nodded calmly upon hearing this.

   Beside Jerome sighed:

   "Unfortunately, if you are assigned to the headquarters, Leiden and I will definitely take you to the Great Axe Tavern every day...but the west of the city is not bad."

   He patted Colin on the shoulder and continued:

   "It's getting late, it's not too late, you should go to the west of the city with your voucher to report, otherwise it will get dark and troublesome."

  Colin took the new voucher and nodded slightly.

  'Is it west of the city...'

  Although Jerome told him that the three places were similar, the conversation he heard when he came was not like that.

  The west of the city, near the dark forest, is obviously more difficult and dangerous.

   "Another wizard died" mentioned in the previous conversation between the two made his heart even more.

  This...is not within the school. Without the protection of the Great Array, the enemy would no longer hold hands like Charlie and Haywood, and would not dare to hurt his life.

  …Here, people will really die.

  Colin calmly turned and left with the new voucher, sighing in his heart.

  Unfortunately, the outcome of the distribution is not something he can decide.

   Be optimistic, at least now you don’t have to worry about being kicked out of the school anymore.

  Jerome also told him that members of the guards could have ten magic stones every month.

   If you complete certain tasks, there will be corresponding rewards.

  ...that's not bad,

   At least much stronger than when he was a third-class apprentice.

   He walked towards the door.
