Before the Adventurer's Guild was established, it was not an easy task for ordinary professionals to upgrade.

The number of commissions is small, and they are all taken up by mercenary groups.

Ordinary professionals either carefully hunt monsters that are not too dangerous.

Or you can join the army and follow the lord's army to participate in the war.

But not many people can guarantee that they will always participate in a large-scale war and survive.

It is common for professionals to go several months without any actual combat experience.

It doesn't mean that everyone has special professional talents. If you can't achieve enlightenment, the experience points gained from practice will be very small.

However, after the Adventurer's Guild was established, commissions were graded, and civilians and small merchants could afford the rewards for low-level commissions.

This led to a surge in the number of commissions, and adventurers also had tasks to do.

The chances of actual combat are greatly increased.

Moreover, when adventurers carry out missions, there is already a complete set of procedures.

Accept the mission - inquire about intelligence - survey the target - take action!

The Monster Encyclopedia is also an essential tool for every adventurer.

It provides great convenience for adventurers to complete their tasks.

On this basis, the Adventurer's Guild has also updated the medicinal plant illustrations to help adventurers identify valuable herbs when performing missions - of course, that's a different story for those who are too lazy to memorize the illustrations.

Therefore, the level-up speed of professionals today is more than one level higher than before the establishment of the guild.

With a few more years of development, the kingdom will probably see a large number of mid-level professionals emerging.

Once there are more mid-level professionals, they can expand outward and acquire resources.

As a result, the number of high-level professionals will increase rapidly.

But this is all assuming that things develop smoothly in the future.

For the current kingdom, a high-level combat force is still very scarce.

Today, the high-ranking officials of the entire kingdom are mainly composed of three parts: the king’s personal guards (leader Lemens), the aristocracy, and the kingdom.

The number on the surface is less than thirty.

Anno estimated that even if Charles XI had a trump card, the total number of high-ranking officials in the kingdom would not exceed forty!

Therefore, the fall of a high-ranking person still has a certain impact on the strength of the kingdom.

After the fall, the kingdom will hold a grand funeral to show its respect for the high-ranking officials.

At the very least, everyone in the royal city must know that the kingdom’s hero died to protect the kingdom.

There will naturally be various rewards for the descendants of high-ranking families.

Anno and Kuro belong to the same faction as Test.

Kuro is also the teacher of Xue Feibai and Lu Zhishang.

Therefore, at Kuro's funeral, Anno arrived early and asked the [Investigator] to help maintain order and prevent anyone from causing trouble.

Xue Feibai and Lu Zhishang followed behind Kuro's relatives.

Knight Alpha, hunter Assassin, thief Roger, wizard Julia and priest Troy, who had fought with Kuro in the town of Gruul, also came.

Roger even swore seriously to Craw's body that he would not let anyone bully his relatives and descendants.

If it weren't for the timely rescue by Craw and his companions, Roger would have become a corpse.

Test also came to express condolences to Kuro's family on behalf of the royal family.

In the past few days, thanks to the publicity from the royal family and the Adventurer's Guild, Kuro's deeds have become known to the residents of the royal city.

Pedestrians on the street looked at the funeral procession on the street and took off their hats to salute.

They were mourning the fall of the kingdom’s hero.

But just as they were about to reach the cemetery, a convoy appeared in front of the team.

As luck would have it, the wheel of the carriage broke and the whole carriage was blocked on the road.

The convoy behind seemed to have no eyes and crashed into it directly.

A convoy of cars was smashed to pieces.

The wide eight-lane road was blocked!

When An Nuo saw this, his eyes narrowed instantly.

The funeral procession looked at each other in bewilderment when they saw this scene.

"What's going on?"

Xue Feibai, who was walking in front, immediately sent people to clear the road.

Just then, a man walked out of the broken carriage.

"Why did a good carriage suddenly break down?"

The person coming down took a look at the team in front of him and cursed: "No wonder, it's really unlucky!"

The sound was not loud, but it was just loud enough for Kuro's family and Xue Feibai and others in the front to hear it.

Kuro's wife's face turned pale instantly, her lips trembled, and tears welled up in her already red and swollen eyes again.

"Damn it!"

Xue Feibai gritted his teeth and walked up to the man. He used his height advantage to look down at him and angrily said, "Priss, say it again if you dare!"

The person standing in front is Priss!

Priss frowned and distanced himself from Xue Feibai, angrily saying, "Who the hell are you? How dare you talk to the Duke of the Kingdom like that? Someone, take him out and chop him up!"

Crash!

A group of people instantly got off from other broken-down carriages on the road.

Among them, the six people walking in front actively emitted seventh-level magic fluctuations and walked straight towards Xue Feibai!

Just as a seventh-level warrior was about to walk up to Xue Feibai and reach out to grab the latter's arm, a figure stood between the two of them.

"Casta, haven't you been taught a lesson enough by my master? Do you want to be beaten again?"

Liz held a whip in her hand and taunted the opposing warrior without any hesitation.

Casta's face darkened when he heard this.

When Anno was first promoted to level seven, he and the mage Sharin, under Simmons' instructions, challenged Anno to a duel.

The purpose is to step on Anno.

But who knew that An Nuo, who had just entered the seventh level, was so powerful.

Both of them were easily defeated by Annuo in the round-robin battle and became the laughing stock of others.

"You let a lowly contracted succubus come forward. Is your master a coward?"

Casta glanced at Anno not far away and said loudly: "Oh, I forgot, your master is really a coward. A coward who only dares to hide in the back!"

Reeves and Zina said they were imprisoned in the prison, but in fact they were transferred to Anno by Test.

Priss hadn't found the two of them in the past two days.

Therefore, they don’t know that An Nuo has reached the eighth level.

Casta dared to challenge Anno because he thought Anno was still at the seventh level, and with Priss by his side.

In the face of Casta's insults, Annuo did not react at all, but Troy and Tester could not help but scold Casta.

Troy: "Casta, I advise you to apologize to Anno right now!"

Tester: "How dare you, as a high-ranking official in the kingdom, deliberately cause trouble at your colleague's funeral. Do you want to destroy the stability of the kingdom?"

Tester is now on his feet.

If this kind of thing had happened before, no matter how angry Test was, he would not have put the blame on Casta.

Because this would really undermine the stability of the kingdom.

The internal strife between the two sides will, no matter what the outcome, be the loser in the end.

But now Annuo can fight against hundreds of high-level ones alone.

Not to mention Casta, even the high-ranking members of the entire aristocratic faction were not taken seriously by Testa.
