"Is the magic crystal ready?"
"It's ready, the portal can be opened at any time!"
"Open the portal!"
"yes!"
As the order was given, the surfaces of the two towering stone pillars suddenly glowed red.
The distance between the two stone pillars is about twenty meters, and each is fifty meters high!
The red light shining above is exactly the carved magic pattern.
As the expensive magic crystals charged the stone pillars, the light of the two stone pillars suddenly connected together.
The light is so bright that people can't look directly at it.
Half a minute later, the light gradually became softer.
A rectangular light curtain appeared between the two stone pillars.
At this time, the portal is fully activated. As long as you pass through the light curtain, you can reach Warrengel instantly!
The Second Army and the Fourth Army took the lead in moving towards the light curtain.
As the soldier touched the light curtain, ripples appeared on it, and then the soldier disappeared.
Rows of soldiers stepped into the light curtain, and it was a long time before it was the turn of the last adventurers.
Annuo led the participating members into the light curtain.
The scene flashed, and everyone arrived at Warrengel.
The portal here is also located inside the military camp.
The corps of soldiers coming from the front have left in an orderly manner and headed for the designated location.
According to the plan, after the adventurers became familiar with Warrengel, their main job was to eliminate the monsters that had infiltrated the mountains and forests on both sides of the city.
This is safer, but monsters are hard to find and the overall efficiency is low.
Moreover, not all monsters in the forests are low-level. There is a certain chance that mid-level monsters will appear there.
If you find any trace of a mid-level monster and report it to the city, you can also get merit points.
If you face the enemy head-on with the soldiers, the danger level on the battlefield will increase sharply, but you will have more opportunities to fight monsters - currently, monsters will attack Warrengel every three or two days and try to destroy the city walls.
Adventurers who are confident in their own abilities can choose this method to quickly gain merit points.
"Everyone, the finals of the World's No. 1 Professional Competition has already begun the moment you step into Warrengel.
After half a month, the merit points obtained by everyone will be counted and ranked!
Dear contestants, and adventurers who have come to Warrengel.
I wish you all good luck in martial arts!"
After leaving the military camp, An Nuo looked at the adventurers gathered in the square and shouted, "Disband!"
The adventurers integrated into Warrengel and began to collect intelligence in recent times.
Even Xue Feibai and others left Annuo, planning to get familiar with Warrengel first, and then go out of the city to search for monsters and hunt them in the mountains and forests on both sides.
According to the rules of the competition, each level 0 to 5 zero-order monster is worth 1 to 5 merit points.
Level 6~10 first-level monsters are worth 10~50 merit points each;
And so on!
Hunting a level 6 monster between level 31 and 35 can earn you one million merit points!
Various intelligence gathered or other things done that are beneficial to the war will be awarded corresponding merit points after evaluation.
For contestants, the best way to get a good ranking is to hunt high-level monsters to obtain more merit points.
The value of 10 merit points is equivalent to 1 gold coin, which can be exchanged for gold coins at the Quartermaster's Office.
Of course, this is the most unprofitable approach.
There are many good things in the army that are basically not sold outside, including weapons and equipment, magic potions, combat pets and mounts, professional skills, etc.!
But the laws of the kingdom stipulate that these goodies can only be exchanged for merit points and cannot be bought with money!
In the past, when professionals from Warrengel went to the quartermaster's office to hunt monsters, they would be given gold coins directly.
Now that the merit point mode is open to adventurers, it means that adventurers have an additional way to redeem these goodies during this period.
However, there is no war today, so there is no way to earn merit points immediately.
But this also gave everyone time to adapt.
Anno walked casually towards a tavern with Shadow, Liz, Ella and Sasir.
Annuo doesn't care about the title of "Number One in the World" now.
He knew that his strength was no match for the sixth-level contestant.
With the latter's strength, even if he doesn't hunt down sixth-order monsters when a war breaks out, he can focus on fourth- and fifth-order monsters to increase his speed.
The merit points gained from hunting are beyond the reach of contestants of other ranks!
There are rumors that Annuo is very powerful, but after all, Annuo is only level 22 now.
[Number One in the World] Hopeless!
As for the title of [Adventurer's Star] awarded at the same time as [Number One in the World], and the title of [Monster Hunter] in the collective mission.
This requires the president Annuo to grant it personally, and Annuo certainly doesn't want it.
Annuo’s main goal this time is to improve his level!
More than a week has passed since the first battle between the Demon King's army and the Warrengel defenders.
Along the way, the atmosphere in the city of Warrengel was solemn and murderous.
Everyone on the street was walking in a hurry, and from time to time a team of guards transporting supplies would pass by quickly.
Liz looked at the guards who were leaving, held Ella's hand, turned around and asked Anno: "Master, are we going to go out of the city to hunt monsters like before?"
For the past half month since the competition, Liz has been staying with Ella.
While strengthening her sisterly relationship with Ella, Liz kept speaking well of Anno to Ella.
Every morning, the first thing the two sisters do when they wake up is to go and greet An Nuo.
The word "master" became more and more fluent in Ella's mouth.
At least on the surface.
As for what Ella thought, Annuo didn't care.
"There are monsters everywhere outside the city now. Not to mention us, even if a fifth- or sixth-level professional dares to leave the city without permission, he could be killed at any time!"
An Nuo shook his head and said, "Now that my identity as a summoner has been made public, there is no need to hide it in battle. We just need to wait until the war starts and fight with the army!"
Ella was puzzled when she heard this: "Master, we should go to the city wall to get information, but now we are heading to the center of the city!"
"Test has already told me the intelligence about Warrengel in detail. I already have a general understanding of the battle situation here, so there is no need to go to the front to gather intelligence. Before going to the city wall to wait for the Demon King's army to attack, I will go see someone first!"
In a manor in the city, under the guidance of the guards, Annuo found the lord's son whom he met last time in Warrengel, Lance Seven of the Seven family!
"An, long time no see, I've been waiting for you for a long time!"
Lance, who knew in advance that An Nuo was coming, greeted him happily when he saw An Nuo's changing shadow.
A few days ago, Anno had informed Lance through Tester that he was going to Warrengel.
Lance looked at Anno himself and said seriously, "This must be President Anno, right? I asked An to tell the guild headquarters that Lance, Lance Seven, wants to become the president of the Warrengel Adventurer Branch!"
"Hello, His Highness Tester also mentioned you to me. After our careful consideration, the position of President of the Warrengel Adventurer's Branch will be held by His Excellency Lance!"
Annuo came this time because he agreed to let Lance be the branch president.
This guy was originally from the Kingdom faction, and he also had a friendship with Tester when he went to the Royal City to study as a child.
But after growing up, the two rarely saw each other.
However, Tester still has a relatively high opinion of Lance.
Moreover, in a place like Warrengel, apart from Lance, no one else can necessarily make the Adventurer's Guild develop.
"Very good!"
When Lance heard An Nuo say in person that he wanted to be the branch president, he couldn't help but clench his fists and raised his eyebrows towards An beside him.
"This guy, he doesn't want to recruit me into his gang!"
Seeing this, Shadow curled his lips.
Arrogant 'Anno' would never work under someone else!
As the dark side of Anno, Shadow only thinks about three things most of the time!
Killing!
Killing!
Still fucking killing!
How to level up and become stronger without killing?
If you are not strong, how can you fight against the gods of leeks in the future?
However, Shadow is just bloodthirsty, not brainless.
He would not do inappropriate things in inappropriate situations - Annuo did not call Shadow back because he was worried that the Demon King's army might launch an attack at any time.
It would take a lot of magic power to summon the shadow at that time.
It would be better to let Shadow act as a Blood Wolf Knight now.
"President of the Lance Branch, I have another matter to attend to this visit. An should have told you in advance!"
When Lance heard Anno call him the president, he straightened his back instantly.
"The president is here to buy a set of magic equipment, right?"
The materials used to craft magic equipment are rare and expensive, but they are very powerful.
Every noble hopes to have an elite force equipped with magic equipment under his command.
Especially the Seven family, the nobles of the border fortress!
However, the magic equipment sent from the king was limited in quantity and was not enough.
Lance's father, Alick, is the current patriarch of the Seven family.
He worked hard to gain the friendship of several dwarven families who were proficient in blacksmithing.
Then the Seven family will provide the materials and expenses, and the Dwarf family will provide the magic equipment.
This channel can deliver nearly ten sets of magic suits and nearly a hundred pieces of scattered magic equipment to the Seven family every year.
This is more than twice the amount of magical equipment provided by the kingdom every year!
After learning the news from poor Tester, Annuo immediately became interested.
The level of the current summoned creature can be increased within the current grade as Anno's level increases.
If all of Asa's summons are equipped with magic equipment.
The strength of Annuo's summoned troops will be increased by several levels!
