Chapter 655 Finishing Some Small Quests
The team found their way back to the mission hall. 18 out of 20 men had survived the quest. It wasn’t perfect, but it was much better than the number that was expected. When they gathered, Head Commander Edi took out his war glory tag.“K3516, you have completed your Orc Empire Hunting quest.”
“K3516, you have been given 10 war glory points as your base reward for completing the quest.”
“K3516, you have been granted a total of 63.6 war glory points for your kill scores.”are now 107.”
Abel had a very satisfied look on his face. It seemed that he could be home pretty early.
Head Commander Bodley noticed something, “Hey! I think I think I got two more points than I should’ve!”
“Me too!” K3308 said excitedly, “Did my spell happen to kill a lot of orcs?”
Head Commander Edi gazed at Abel for a bit. He knew where the extra points came from. For the points that were awarded for scoring kills, 40% of it would be distributed to the other teammates. Abel must’ve killed way more orcs than they could’ve imagined when he was alone.
And the two that were dead–it wasn’t like nothing would go towards them. What they earned would still go to the families that they belonged to. This was the Miracle City’s way of ensuring that soldiers wanted to stay here.
For the math again–the nineteen men other than Abel received two extra war glory points, whereas Abel received a bonus of 60 points for his efforts. It was 40% for the other members and 60% for himself. If Head Commander Edi weren’t on bad terms with him, he would’ve gone ahead and asked him what happened.
Speaking of which, Head Commander Donald had just made a very dangerous enemy for himself. Abel was a beginner wizard, but he was probably the strongest person ever at the Miracle City.
Head Commander Edi was starting to have second thoughts. He wished that he had spent more time with Abel during the mission. The blood of the beastly god was all that he was focused on, and he really missed a chance of a lifetime back then.
“So how many orcs did you actually kill?”
That question came from K3308. It was always him that’s asking the inappropriate questions, but this time, everyone was just as curious as him.
Abel replied as everyone stared at him, “Um, I don’t know, actually. A lot?”
As far as Abel remembered, the only one he killed with his hands was the grey-hooded priest. The other intermediate priests were still alive when he was trying to leave the trap. Still, he wasn’t there to see it, but he figured that his blue quality poison did manage to kill a lot of his enemies.
Head Commander Markham tried to be sensible, “You don’t have to answer if you don’t want to, K3516. And you, K3308. Stop bothering him and get some rest.”
“But!” K3308 said innocently, “Ahhhh, fine! Let me just return the things I’ve borrowed.”
As he said that, K3308 returned the passive defensive magic item he borrowed from Abel. He didn’t say thanks explicitly, but everyone knew how grateful he really was.
K3305 also returned the two items he borrowed, “Here’s the stuff you lent me. Can I be honest with you, K3516? I don’t think I can ever come back here without these.”
K3308 nodded, “True, true. You know, without K3516 with us, I would’ve never gone on an insane mission like this.”
It was a bit of a rude remark, but no one really talked back to K3308. After all, Abel was the one who saved the day. Even the knights couldn’t say otherwise. While it was their responsibility to take care of all the wizards, it was actually Abel that helped them guarantee a lot of the members’ safety.
After Abel parted ways with the others, he decided to make his stop at the rune pattern retrieval point first. He was going to make his final stop there. It’d be the last time he was going to draw runes for that place.
His next stop would be Nam Mountain. Of course, he was not interested in the blood of the beastly god. What he was after was the origin of his unique identity card. He wanted to make sure that it was related to the ancient ruins.
“K3516, you have completed your rune drawing mission.”
“K3516, you have been given 10 points for completing the mission.”
“K3516, you now have a total of 117 war glory points.”
After doing a bit of math, Abel figured out that he got a total of 600 crystal cores for doing this mission. He wasn’t really planning on making runes with them (because they were all for low tiers), but it’d be very useful for his future commercial activities.
Next, he went to the weapon warehouse to return the repaired weapons.
“K3516, you have completed your weapon maintenance mission.”
“K3516, you have been given 10 war glory points for completing your mission.”
“K3516, you now have a total of 127 war glory points.”
At the end of the day, Abel had 127 war glory points in total. He was now officially recognized as someone “worthy.” Once he was home, he could use this record to apply to become an eaNot that he was that interested. Right now, his status was too high to be improved with war glory services. He was also a wizard and a grandmaster blacksmith, so it’d be impossible for the Wizard Union to allow him to be further involved with the noblemen class.
With that being said, he could be granted a very bountiful piece of land. For what he’s done to protect mankind’s border, Abel would have ownership over the richest terrain within Harvest City. There weren’t any mines there, but the farming he could do there could last for thousands and thousands of years.
When Abel returned to area A, two red-cloaked wizards were waiting for him at the door.
A red-cloaked intermediate wizard said with a cocky tone, “K3516, you are now under suspicion for having killed a human wizard. I will have to ask you to come with us and cooperate with our investigation.”
A classic intimidation move. These two came under Head Commander Donald. With Donald’s support, they decided that it was safe enough to do this. Supposedly, as long as they could trick Abel into going to the justice department, it’d be very easy to threaten him to hand over the two items Head Commander Donald was after.
“And who are you?” Abel said with a gloomy look. He’s already reported to the Wizard Amos to the miracle spirit. Whatever these two were doing, it wasn’t legal.
One of the wizards started yelling at Abel, “You’re trying to be funny with that question? Look closely! We are wizarding law enforcers! Just shut your mouth and come to the justice department with us!”
Abel wasn’t even trying to say anything back, “Let me just take out my tag.... Hey, miracle spirit! K3516 requests mediation.”
The red-cloaked wizards weren’t scared at all. If anything, they thought that it was funny that Abel would try to contact the miracle spirit. While it was true that interventions could be requested, the miracle spirit would be too busy to make a response most of the time.
Something was different, though.
“K3516! The miracle spirit has accepted your request for mediation. If there are any wizard law enforcers harassing you illegally, they will be instantly dispatched from their posts and have 50 war glory points taken away from them.”
As soon as that voice came up, the two red-cloaked wizards could feel the vibration coming from their war glory tags. They didn’t even have to look to know what it was. They were really starting to regret coming here. Whoever this K3516 was, he was a VIP member of this city.
And there went their entire life’s effort. While it wasn’t hard to earn back the 50 points within a year, they dedicated way too much to become wizard law enforcers. If they knew this would happen, they would never have tried to become friends with Head Commander Donald.
“Damn you, Donald! You ruined us!”
As for Abel, he didn’t even care. He just went home while the two wizards screamed and howled outside.
