After they all got off the car, the housekeeper Gu Yang put the beast cart back into the storage ring and the contracted beast back into the pet space.
During this journey, Gu Lingyan finally broke through to the fourth level of spiritual master, which made Xuanyuan Zhong, who was traveling with her, once again realize the talents of the brother and sister.
"Go and register as mercenaries. I suggest you use pseudonyms," said Gu Lingyan.
"A pseudonym, oh, I get it. You want to hide your identity! This way, no matter what we do, we just need to change our name and no one will be able to find us." Gu Ningyu immediately understood what Guo Lingyan meant.
After a series of procedures, everyone finally registered as mercenaries and received their missions.
Xuanyuan Zhong changed his name to Zhang Qi, and Gu Lingyan and his sister used their previous names Lin Xi and Lin Chen again.
Gu Yang used the alias Lan Yi, Gu Ningyu used the alias Zhao Xiao, He Ziyu and He Zirui used the alias Shui Wu and Shui Ao, and Gu Song used the alias Zhu Xing.
The group cleared out all the quests in the quest hall. The last time Gu Lingyan and his sister cleared out all the spiritual herb quests, the Mercenary Guild took a long time to recover, as other mercenaries also needed to take on quests.
This time it was even more ruthless. Except for the spiritual herb mission, all other tasks that could be accepted were also cleared out. Fortunately, in addition to the Spirit Beast Forest, there are other places where tasks can be handed in.
Although there is no clear rule that states that all tasks cannot be accepted at once, there has never been a case where anyone has accepted all the tasks at once. This puts Manager Wu, who manages the Task Hall, in a difficult position, but he has no choice but to process the procedures for all of them.
From then on, whenever I saw them, I would just take a detour.
The Second Mercenary Guild has since formulated new rules for them, which makes Gu Lingyan laugh and cry.
"Shui Wu, Shui Ao, take my badge and take on all the tasks within your authority."
"Ah! Miss, this is not good." Shui Ao looked at Gu Lingfeng, wanting to see what Gu Lingfeng meant.
"If you trust me, just answer it. I don't want you to question any decision I make. If you can't carry out my orders unconditionally, then leave as soon as possible." Gu Lingyan was very unhappy. They always questioned her. She looked at her brother to see if her brother meant the same thing.
"Miss, I won't do this again. Please give me another chance." The two siblings begged for mercy quickly. After all, they were the ones who made the mistake first. Since it was their master who gave the order, they naturally had to obey.
"I hope this is the last time. If you do it again, don't follow me."
"Yes, thank you Miss, we will go to receive the task now."
Both siblings swore an oath, which means that if Gu Lingyan said she would abandon them, they would also keep their oath and make them live a life worse than death.
Xuanyuan Zhong, who was standing next to him, heard what Gu Lingyan said, and he didn't even dare to speak out his doubts, fearing that he would be driven away by Gu Lingyan and even denied the place to go to Yuntian College. From then on, he just listened to Gu Lingyan in everything, and the rules he summed up were all right according to Gu Lingyan.
"Manager Wu, this is the task we received, and this is the identity card." He Zirui and his sister placed all the task cards on the registration table.
"Hey! Are you here to cause trouble?" No matter how many task signs were there, he immediately glared at them. Then he saw that most of the signs hanging in the task hall were gone, and he became even more angry.
"You guys are here to bully me, ah! Who would take on so many tasks?"
"Manager Wu, we are not joking. We have handed you the identity badge, and we are also aware of the consequences of failing to complete the mission. This is not a joke, right?" Shui Ao, also known as He Zirui, tried his best to show that they were not joking.
"That's true. Let me see the nameplate." Manager Wu saw the name that impressed him the most: Lin Xi.
He was still deeply impressed by the series of events that occurred when the two siblings completed the task.
"You two, you are not the owner of this nameplate, right?"
“This is our young lady’s nameplate.”
"Oh, that makes sense. Come on, I'll register you." When Manager Wu heard this, his attitude changed 180 degrees and he became enthusiastic in an instant.
He Zirui and his sister were both shocked by the change in attitude.
After a while, Manager Wu finished registering the task cards.
"Okay, okay, everything is registered."
"By the way, Manager Wu, do you have a map of the Spirit Beast Forest for sale?"
"Yes, what kind of map do you want? We have simple maps, detailed maps, and maps of specific areas." The martial arts hall listed several types of maps, indicating that you can choose any one or take all of them.
"Well... Manager Wu, we've already taken on so many missions. Could you recommend some to us? After all, we're not very familiar with this Spirit Beast Forest."
"Hey! You've asked the right person. Many people who buy maps from me will come back to give us feedback on which map is better and more detailed. They will also help to modify it, so I can recommend which detailed map you should buy.
The map covers a wide area, and there are still many places that have not been explored."
"Then, Manager Wu will give us a brief and two detailed reports."
"Okay, that's five thousand gold coins."
"Thank you, Manager Wu. Here are five thousand gold coins."
He Zirui took the map, asked his sister to take the nameplate, and left.
"Brother, why did you think of buying a map?"
"Firstly, none of us have ever been to the Spirit Beast Forest. Secondly, having a map will make things easier for us."
"Brother is the most thoughtful one. I am ashamed of myself as your sister."
"When working for a lady, you always have to think three steps ahead. A lady is not someone you can just sit back and wait for her to say anything. You have to be proactive and flexible to seize opportunities and let her see your value."
"Oh! Thank you, brother. I understand."
"As long as you can figure it out"
"Miss, it's all done. This is your nameplate." He Ziyu returned the nameplate to Gu Lingyan.
"Oh right, Miss, Master, Zhang Qi, I bought three maps of the Spirit Beast Forest. One is a very simple one, and two are detailed maps. This will make it easier for us to walk around and gain experience in the Spirit Beast Forest."
"Not bad," Gu Lingfeng praised He Ziyu.
"This is what my subordinates should do, it's not worth it."
"Shui Ao, you are very thoughtful. You saved us from wandering around and losing our way." Xuanyuan Zhong also expressed his gratitude. It really made him less worried when he was away from home with such a subordinate.
"Okay, let's begin our journey of training. From now on, you all must be vigilant. Vanke must not take it lightly. Whether it's towards people, things, or objects, everything must be done with caution."
"Brother, are we going directly through the Spirit Beast Forest?"
"No, we should go around it. We can't go to the inner area yet. There are many powerful spirit beasts and many unknown dangers there. The middle area is enough for us to train."
"Then listen to your brother."
