Chapter 290: Chapter 245 Production-Type Epic (4K)_2
Seventeen scanned her surroundings. With her incredibly sharp and observant eyes, she immediately spotted others in the hall who were, like her, staking out potential tasks.
There were thirty-seven in total.
She considered going over to ask for advice but hesitated and decided not to. Instead, she covertly observed them from the corner of her eyes.
After observing for a while, Seventeen noted in her notebook:
‘Many people are not always watching the panel, yet they manage to fixate on it and quickly snatch up the high-level tasks that appear. They do this even several seconds earlier, as if they knew it in advance. Compared to these exceptionally skilled and experienced people, I am still too naive in the field of task acceptance.’
“Let’s go back to the shop first.”
There are two strongholds in the Shiling Town territory: a shop at the end of the main road and a business association outpost on the outskirts of town where the rent is relatively cheap.
Seventeen returned the tablet and briskly walked out of the door. The location of the Players Association was bustling, but the farther she went, the fewer people she saw. When she arrived at her shop, it was quiet and empty.
An elderly man with white facial hair was at the counter, fiddling with some instruments, seemingly working on some medicinal herbs.
The elder was a Tianyuan Territory Citizen, a talent in pharmacology.
According to the Lord himself, he was a rare R-Level Talent. Seventeen did not really understand what an R-Level Talent was, but she always admired and respected intellectuals.
“Old Tong.”
“Seventeen, the team leader…” The elder put down the medicinal herbs he was processing, “Do you have any instructions, Seventeen?”
“No, none.”
Seventeen waved her hand, thought for a moment and asked again, “Where’s Daisy?”
“Miss Daisy has gone to negotiate business with other business associations.” The elder named Tong had a worried expression, “Our shop is open, but the earnings are limited. We only received two batches of medicinal herbs this morning and sold very few potions. We are going to lose money at this rate.” Seventeen understood the reasoning, but asking her for suggestions was asking too much.
Daisy will find a way, right?
If not, the omnipotent Lord would surely come up with a solution.
She was not particularly worried. All she had to do was figure out how to maximise the shop’s potential revenue within her means.
She looked back at the shop, where the ‘Count Vampire Gibi’, dressed as a shop boy but actually a member of the security team, was standing. She thought for a moment then said, “Captain Gibi, I entrust you to inquire about the trainer’s job in the Town West Training Field.”
Count Vampire Gibi was the most prominent of the three vampires and was the first to receive evolution baptism.
He was promoted from Viscount to the great Earl.
And was entrusted by the Lord to establish a stronghold in Shiling Town, taking the first step towards conquering the universe for the Territory.
“But Seventeen, are you telling me to, the noble and great Count Vampire, go and work in the Town West Training Field?”
“The noble Count Vampire would never work!”
“I’m going!”
Gibi adjusted his collar.
Of course, this was all for the plan of the Lord to conquer the universe.
It had nothing to do with his dream of epic evolution.
The Tianyuan Territory temporarily did not lack a dozen or more Elite-level combat units, so Mu Yuan assigned some to garrison the stronghold in Shiling Town.
Taking up Association tasks is indeed one way to generate income.
Mu Yuan still remembered when he bought rare items online a long time ago, and it was a wise ghost from the Underworld who delivered the goods to his doorstep.
Mature soldiers would always try to earn money for their Lord.
Seventeen was already mature and would gradually influence the other troop types to mature as well, which was very good.
“Tasks from the Association accumulate to a considerable income. Moreover, there are plenty of basic monster extermination tasks that players are unable to take on. If I take a few more from here, it would also alleviate some pressure on the region of ShilingTown.”
Although what he really wanted was a mission to purify the Land of Filth.
Not only could he freeload the coordinates and information of the Land of Filth, but he could also receive rewards from the Association. This double happiness made him pleased just thinking about it. The only pity was that he didn’t have the opportunity.
In Shiling Town, Seventeen served as the security team leader. Daisy was in charge of business negotiations and did not usually stay in Shiling Town but traveled with the caravan, only occasionally staying over.
A R-Level Talent named ‘Tong Shansen’, who was selected from amongst the refugees, was in charge of the shop as the store manager.
Old Tong Shansen was a high-ranking talent in the field of herbal medicine. He could recognize and process medicinal herbs. Although a player’s appraisal could identify the grades of medicinal herbs, it could only provide a name.
There was still a significant difference in quality and value between different medicinal herbs.
Moreover, pre-graded herbs also had value. Many high-grade medicines would require these normal blended materials for processing.
Processing and preservation of medicinal herbs was also a field of study.
In the early days, a lot of the medicinal herbs and exotic fruits harvested by the exploration team of the territory suffered a significant reduction in medicinal effect due to improper processing and ended up as expired goods in the warehouse.
Now it wouldn’t happen.
The Flower Fairy lineage’s power could stabilise the efficacy of medicinal herbs. However, their processing of the herbs through supernatural means meant that their understanding and recognition of herbs was close to zero.
At this moment, Mu Yuan stood before a patch of gold fertile soil at the north of the territory.
Here, four entire blocks of gold fertile soil were devoted to supporting a small tree in the center.
An Ice Clear Fruit Tree.
“La lala~”
“Grow up fast, okay?”
A creature resembling a fairy was flying around this tree, sprinkling specks of brilliance.
It looked like a miniaturized girl, about half a human’s height. It was dressed in a skirt made of petals, barefoot and floating in the air. Behind its back were two pairs of thin wings, akin to cicada wings.
