"In any case, the missions must be completed, and it's best to continue completing them quickly to earn the extra rewards in stage 3."
Xiao Linlin glanced at Su Lin, who looked up and met her gaze with a helpless smile: "What a pity, it was destroyed too early."
He lamented the loss of Blackrock Town; if he had waited a little longer to kill the enemy, quest 2 would have been completed by then.
"Brother Jia, I remember when you were talking to those NPCs, you heard about some of the upcoming military operations?"
Xiao Linlin looked at Jia Zhengyi. She naturally already knew about these things, but she needed to tell Su Lin and Lyanna the news.
Sulin is the core of the team, and Lyanna is the team's current public military officer.
"Um."
Jia Zhengyi nodded: "It'll be in the next day or two. I heard that this batch of new recruits in the city will be going to the nearest battlefield in the south."
"There was no time for training, and no clear military mission assignments. They were just going to send us to the battlefield, where we would most likely be cannon fodder. Whether we lived or died would depend entirely on luck."
Jia Zhengyi paused, then added, "Our city has gathered many new recruits from all over the country. Although the number has exceeded 20,000, they are basically all ordinary soldiers and have no special forces."
"In this kind of large-scale war between imperial races, only mages, aura knights and the like are important combat forces, while the rest of the recruits are just filler babies."
"So, if we want to complete Task 2 quickly, we guess we can only find a way in the next few days."
"After these two days, once we get to the front lines, we won't have much control over ourselves... I've heard that military management there is very strict, unlike here where it's so relaxed, and there's not much room for corruption."
Judging from the information provided by Jia Zhengyi, it is clear that there are still some strong figures supporting the human empire, and it has not completely rotted to the core.
Once you actually go to the front lines, it might not be easy to do missions then.
Therefore, we must first resolve the issue of Mission 2 and, in conjunction with the content of Mission 3, determine whether the team truly needs to go to the front lines of the war.
"Then let's find an opportunity."
Su Lin narrowed his eyes and finally made a decision: "Find a reason to let me go out alone. I'll go outside and find a way to kill 1,000 people."
Lyanna's strength still needs to be hidden and cannot be easily revealed.
Since the mission must be carried out, Su Lin himself is the best candidate. The only problem to be solved is: how to kill 1,000 "own people" in a reasonable way.
"Okay, boss, I'll try to get you an opportunity."
Jia Zhengyi seemed to have anticipated this, and said tactfully, "I've heard some bad things about the NPCs these past few days, like how soldiers can be easily defeated. I think our mission 2 can be completed soon."
"Yes, I trust your abilities. Go as soon as possible."
Su Lin nodded, the two exchanged a glance, and Jia Zhengyi quickly left the room to seek new opportunities.
"elder brother."
Shortly after Jia Zhengyi left, Su Lin didn't have much time to continue studying the boxing manual. Xiao Linlin planned to take him out of the room: "Brother, we've rested for so many days, it's time for us to go out and exercise."
"Going to do what?"
Su Lin looked puzzled, but Xiao Linlin blinked and smiled mischievously: "Of course it's to gather supplies! Have you been so engrossed in studying the boxing manual these past few days that you've forgotten our main objective besides escaping?"
"Supplies in Balota City?"
Su Lin raised an eyebrow. He had heard about Jia Zhengyi's reconnaissance after entering the city: there were two low-income families in this fortress-level city! And a large number of purple containers! There were also a lot of ordinary container supplies!
This entire city is basically equivalent to half of the resources of Jian Ge back then, definitely a high-level resource area!
However, just like Blackrock Town, the city suffers from the same problem of scattered resources. The higher the quality of the resources, the more they tend to gather near high-ranking and powerful NPCs, leaving new recruits with no reason or qualification to approach them.
Furthermore, given that Balota City was quite powerful, with a large garrison and several mid-level mages stationed there, Su Lin couldn't easily destroy a fortress city to plunder its resources, and had already tacitly given up on the city's resources.
He wasn't a reckless person driven by greed; he would never let go of anything he could eat, and he wouldn't force himself to eat what he couldn't have.
But Xiao Linlin had been secretly looking for an opportunity, and judging from her current demeanor, she probably already knew what was going on.
What are you planning to do?
Su Lin asked, and Xiao Linlin silently pointed at Lyanna: "It might require your cooperation, sister. After all, the identity of an elf is very useful, especially for an elf who has already assumed a new military rank... It should be perfectly reasonable for you to visit the city lord and the nobles."
"Of course, as newcomers, it's quite normal for us to accidentally get lost in the nobles' gardens when necessary."
Xiao Linlin narrowed her eyes, her smile sly: "Anyway, they care more about whether the elves can win them more war benefits and racial support, and they don't care if they accidentally lose something."
"Um."
Su Lin nodded and asked to confirm, "Is there any danger to Lyanna? I think she probably doesn't like these flattering moments, and I don't want my followers to suffer."
"Of course not! Brother, I've already confirmed it. Elves are noble! In the current war situation, every elf needs to be flattered by humans!"
Xiao Linlin solemnly assured her, "As long as Sister Lyanna does as I say, she only needs to endure the flattery and fawning of the nobles, and she doesn't need to give anything in return."
So, we're going there to get something for free?
What are we waiting for!
Any hesitation now is a disrespect for the potential gains!
"good."
Su Lin immediately made a decision and stood up decisively: "Let's go! Let's set off right now! Let's go get our welfare benefits!"
