Chapter 66 - 66: Go, Take the First Step to Show Yourself to the World
After coming out of the outpost, Damir was full of energy.
Even though he was the disciple of Archbishop Maggie and was young, he had already reached the level of a 3rd rank professional that many people might not be able to reach in their entire lives.
However, this did not affect his lack of money and his poverty.
There was a famous saying.
“All the powerful mages are made with gold coins.
Therefore, only noble families could nurture a spellcaster profession. Unfortunately, Damir, who was destined to shoulder the heavy responsibility of saving the Fire Domain by the plot, was an orphan who grew up in an orphanage.
If it weren’t for the support from his mentor and Commander Harvey, Damir would have gone bankrupt long ago.
Therefore, whether it was for personal reasons or to defend Red Flame Town against evil forces, Damir had to recruit these foreigners!
In this regard, even if his competitor was Vivian, the young genius mage was not prepared to go easy on him.
Damir was extremely confident.
In terms of purity of magic power, he could not compare to the girl. In terms of magic talent, he could not compare to the little girl. But in terms of identity and background, could he not compare to Vivian?
He was the only disciple of the Archbishop of the Fire God Sect in Fire Law City, and he was also a powerful 3rd rank Elemental Mage. Just by revealing this identity, there would definitely be a large number of foreigners fighting to follow him.
However…
Damir thought about it again. He felt that he could not go too far. He had to leave some face for Vivian. He could not embarrass the little girl. Otherwise, how could he pursue others in the future?
Therefore, after hesitating for a moment, although Damir’s heart was bleeding, he still pretended to be very generous and said,
“How about this, Vivian? Let’s not split up. Let’s recruit together. When the time comes, the reward… How can we split it evenly?
Sacrificing half of the gold coins had prevented Vivian from feeling that she was bullying her, and that she did not even respond to a stranger.
Damir felt that his EQwas very high.
But…
To his surprise, Vivian shook her head!
“That… I still want to try it myself!” The young girl had her own thoughts.
Was gold coins important to Vivian?
But it was too important.
Especially when he had a little wolf cub in his arms to raise.
He didn’t know how his brother’s illness was, or if it had improved. His father had negotiated a contract with someone else. If he wanted to go back on his word, he had to pay a high penalty for breaching the contract. If the wolf cubs wanted to develop, they had to buy the best meat.
It could even be said that..
Vivian quietly looked down at her barren body.
The little girl had never cared about such things before, but ever since she experienced the scene of her wolf cub being hugged by someone else…
Although the young girl did not show anything on the surface, she had secretly made up her mind that she had to win him back in this aspect!
How could he let others dote on his own son?
The young girl from the countryside didn’t know much about other things, but she valued this very much! And what did all of this require?
Money!
Gold coins!
With such a good opportunity in front of her, Vivian did not want to share it with others.
That was why it was said that people needed a goal to have motivation. Unknowingly, the village girl who always liked to give in and had a weak personality had grown to the point where she could stand up bravely and take the initiative to compete in order to strengthen herself.
But of course, this also included Vivian’s confidence in herself.
After all, she had come into contact with many foreigners before.
She didn’t know if it was her imagination.
However, the little girl felt that she seemed to be among these foreigners… Quite popular?
On the other side…
Mayor Thorin looked at Damir and Vivian, who seemed to be very confident in recruiting foreigners. The mayor sighed in his heart that they were still too young. Did they really think that their money was so easy to earn? It was not that Sorin had not tried to recruit these foreigners himself.
But how should he put it?
They didn’t seem to take him seriously at all.
In the beginning, there were quite a number of people from the foreign land who showed interest in this. However, for some reason, before he could speak, the other party suddenly showed a disgusted expression.
All of them were muttering things like ” It’s only a D-rank mission “,” The rewards aren’t even a fraction of what others have ” I’ve already chosen a faction, so I can’t change it anymore “, and so on.
Moreover, it was not just one or two people who had this situation, but almost all the foreigners.
Town Mayor Thorin had no other choice. He wanted to see if Damir and Vivian, who were of higher status and younger, could persuade these foreigners.
Just like that, they arrived before the hundreds of players gathered in the square of Red Flame Town.
The first to go up was Damir.
The young genius Mage immediately cast a Shifting Spell, and it was as if he had crossed a distance of more than ten meters in an instant, arriving before the players.
It had to be said that this method of entering the stage was quite eye-catching. Immediately, many players looked at Damir with curiosity.
” Travelers from foreign lands, there is an evil force stirring in the depths of the Dreadclaw Forest. Our village is under attack, and people are constantly turning into monsters. Right now, Red Flame Town is the last line of defense for Fire Code City. We must not lose it until reinforcements from Fire Code City arrive.
“Therefore, brave warriors, I need your strength. I represent my teacher
Archbishop Maggie, my companion Commander Harvey of the Fire Code Knights, and myself, the 3rd rank Elemental Mage Damir. At this critical moment, I sincerely request you to help me resist the evil invasion! ! ”
The wolf cub in Vivian’s arms watched Damir’s impassioned speech on the high platform and could not help but click his tongue in wonder.
Look at this standard NPC speech. Even the lines he said didn’t seem to have changed much from his previous life.
At that time, Liao Zixuan clearly remembered that all the players were stunned when they heard Damir’s exaggerated words. All of them rushed to accept Damir’s mission.
But now…
[Elemental Archmage Damir has issued you a B-rank mission, ‘Defend Fire Code Town.’ Will you accept it?)
‘ Please note, after accepting the mission, you will be automatically assigned to the Damir faction.”
[Please note that in the SS emergency mission ” Magic Tide Attack “, once the faction of the guard force has been decided, it cannot be changed.]
The players in the Red Flame Town square all had expressions that said,” This is it.”
Damn, after talking for so long, he thought it was amazing. In the end, it was actually just a B-rank mission?
Crawl!
In Damir’s short life, he was definitely in the top three in terms of ” embarrassing scenes that made people want to crawl into the ground.”
In the huge square, there were hundreds of foreigners, but none of them responded to him!
This was completely different from what Damir had imagined!
Liao Zixuan, who was at the back, wanted to laugh when he saw this scene.
Damir wasn’t to be blamed for this. Firstly, Damir hadn’t fully matured yet, so the NPC quest level determined by the system definitely wouldn’t be very high.
As for the second…
He didn’t even look at who Damir’s competitor was.
Below the stage, Mayor Thorin, who had high hopes for Damir, sighed deeply as he looked at the dismal scene before him.
Even Damir couldn’t convince these foreigners?
What about Red Flame Town? What about the evil forces that were about to arrive? Did he really want his soldiers to die?
No, no, no.
It seemed that he could only give up on the town and retreat…
Mayor Thorin seemed to have aged a few years. Red Flame Town was his blood and sweat. Even if he planned to retreat, someone had to stop the monsters and buy time.
On the other side, Vivian, who was originally cheering herself on with confidence, became a little flustered after seeing Damir’s awkward silence.
This was…
Why was this so different from the friendly foreigners in his impression?
Even Damir couldn’t persuade a person…
He…Can I do it?
However, just as Vivian began to panic, the girl suddenly felt the wolf cub in her arms tug at the corner of her clothes.
Liao Zixuan gave the little girl a look that said,” Don’t worry, you can do it. Believe in yourself.” After all…
You’re not fighting alone.
The wolf cub yawned lazily and licked his lips. He rolled over in Vivian’s arms and found a more comfortable position. Then, he squinted his eyes.
The road ahead has long been paved for you, and the stage has also been successfully set up for you.
And now, all you need to do is…
It was to step out into this world and show yourself…
The first step!
