The staff at the information station continued:
“Due to the urgency of the matter, after discussions within the Knight
Regiment, you only have one hour to prepare.
Within the hour, if you have not found a knight to guide this mission, one will be directly assigned by the Knight Regiment.”
During the execution of the mission,
The winding device in your hands will initiate ‘Recording Mode’ , recording your entire experience, including details of clues collected, progress of exploration, and any targets eliminated.”
Upon completion of the mission, rewards will be allocated based on the recorded circumstances.
If you rely too much on a knight, you will not be eligible for any rewards.” Cass hesitated a bit, asking the staff, “Um… can I see the revised bounty order?”
“Of course.
The staff handed over an unusually white bounty order.
Such an [Assisting Mission Bounty Order] is quite rare.
After all, it’s unusual for large-scale, bizarre events that require knights to personally handle to occur within the Holy City.
Not only does this type of assisting mission offer high rewards, but it also provides an opportunity to learn from the combat experience of formal knights in the process.
As soon as it’s issued, a large number of teams scramble to take it on.
Cass looked at the top-tier rewards on the bounty order, suppressing his joy in front of the staff as much as possible, “Alright, we will find a suitable leading knight within the hour.”
“Please be mindful of the time issue.’
Following the departure of the staff, Sophia immediately asked curiously from one side.
“Cass, what exactly is the reward?”
“A piece of Fate Equipment! And you can select it yourself!”
“What?!”
Aside from Han Dong, who had no particular reaction, the other two members of the squad stood up in shock… this goes to show how rare Fate Equipment is for Apprentice Knights.
Han Dong stared at the short sword in his hand, feeling like he had accidentally discovered a treasure.
Cass spread the bounty order out.
It was clearly written on it:
[Rewards]:
Assisting missions will be evaluated based on their recorded performances and divided into four tiers: Unqualified, Qualified, Good, and Excellent.
1 As long as their performance is at least qualified, each team can obtain 600 copper coins, supply rewards (choice of materials, self-made equipment, potions), and 5 knight academic points per person.
2 Teams that perform above ‘Good’ will receive additional rewards.
Good: An extra 400 copper coins.
Excellent: An extra piece of Fate Weapon not exceeding the ‘Quality’ grade.
“The basic reward has also been increased by based on the original… If we can just do our best to become ‘Excellent’! Our team will gain another piece of Fate Equipment, fundamentally enhancing our overall strength.
The most important thing to do now is to find a leading knight.
This time’s incident is not simple.
Close to two hundred ordinary people being controlled entered the mansion, plus the incident itself is related to evil witchcraft, they might be conducting some sort of sacrificial ritual.
An hour is enough to exacerbate the situation.
We must find a knight strong enough and meeting the requirements… It’s clearly written on the bounty order, the knight invited, should not exceed the rank of Platoon Leader.’
After Cass briefly explained the situation,
Sophia on the side bit her lip, she grew up in a special family, and had read many things from books.
It seemed that she linked the current incident with some terrifying records from the books.
Fiya muttered, “If the sacrifice of two hundred people is true, it may lure whatever is beyond the city wall… Normal knights will undoubtedly struggle against it.
I… I will consult my sister on this matter.”
“Fiya, is it alright to do that?” Cass seemed to know Fiya’s family affairs and asked with concern.
“I always avoid troubling my sister with trivial matters… but the situation this time is very strange. If my sister agrees, at least our lives won’t be at risk.
If she doesn’t agree, then you, Cass, will need to find someone else. I should reach my sister in half an hour.”
“Alright.’
With Sophia’s departure, Han Dong curiously started asking about this young lady’s family, “Who is Miss Sophia’s sister?”
“Andwa, my friend, you must keep this a secret… If it leaks out, Fiya could be in danger.”
“Hmm… I definitely will.”
“Fiya is from a hereditary noble family, but I’m not sure of their exact ranking.
Her famous sister is Silist, a [Punishment Knight] who serves in the [Order of Holy Knights]. She’s yet to be given a rank since she’s young and just joined the knight regiment recently.
However, her actual power is comparable to some deputy platoon leaders.
She just turned 28 this year.”
If Han Dong were local to the Holy City, he’d be lost for words by now.
But he’s less familiar with all these things; his expression didn’t give much away… only showing a mixture of surprise and embarrassment.
Cass continued to explain, “When we first teamed up with Fiya, we weren’t aware of her background… until we escaped from the death reaper’s blade and successfully passed through the Fate Space last time.
Then, Fiya’s sister, Silist came personally to the transfer exit to take Fiya, who was seriously injured, away.
Fiya later contacted us and secretly told us the whole story. Well, she only told us about her relationship with Silist, and omitted her family background.”
Han Dong nodded, “Hmm… If such an excellent knight is willing to help, we should be able to secure this mission successfully.” While waiting for Fiya.
The arrested old woman’s examination was completed.
The ‘physical examination report’ was brought in by the staff.
Inside the [Holy Sanctuary], the base of the [Order of Holy Knights] on the third level in the Holy City.
Because London Street is adjacent to the [Steps of Poseidon] that leads to the third level, Sophia raced there on horseback and arrived at the sanctuary within half an hour. She saw her sister who was attending a training session in the central garden.
Her golden hair, pouring like a waterfall over her white armor, was waving and
glistening.
Even though her facial features and layout closely resembled Fiya, sternness could be seen in this female knight’s eyes, leaving an invisible aura enveloping the area within a ten meters radius.
Unlike Sophia, Silist majored in [Cross Crusader] and positioned herself as a [Sacred Teachings Army] in the branch of the Talent Tree afterwards. She was a type of close combat knight who wielded the Saint Light Weapon.
“Fiya, why are you here instead of studying in school?”
“Sister… I need your help.”
In front of her sister, Sophia looked like a timid kitten, handing over the white bounty order slowly.
Silist verified the knight’s emblem branded on the lower right corner of the bounty order in some way.
“Hmm? A witch incident, several hundreds of ordinary people involved, completely contaminated.
Fiya, you are quite lucky to encounter such a thing on the second floor… Who is in your squad now?”
“Only the two who survived the [Fate Space] last time, together with a two-star rookie from the Mysterious Department.”
“A two-star [Mysterious Department] recruit? Isn’t he mismatched with your squad’s level?”
“He is Captain Cass’s recommendation… very special, seems like he is a top student from the [Mysterious Department].”
“Alright, I will lead this assistance mission… Time is running out, let’s move out now!”
“Thank you, Sister..”
