Chapter 164 Southeast Fortress
General-level demon hunting groups are allowed to accept multiple missions at the same time.
Ye Tian walked over the magic crystal board and came to the counter, and handed over his Demon Hunting Group token.
"Hello, we are going to accept the mission to explore the Howling Cave of Terror."
The waiter behind the counter looked up, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.
I didn't expect that he is already a general-level member of the Demon Hunting Group at such a young age.
"OK, just a second."
The staff member came to his senses, took the Demon Hunting Group token and started to register.
"General-level Demon Hunting Group No. 21, accept the exploration mission: Horror Screaming Cave. This mission rewards 20,000 merits. There is no penalty for failure."
"The Demon Hunters have completed zero missions?!"
When the staff read this, they were shocked.
Ye Tian frowned slightly, "Is there any problem?"
"Of course, no problem," the staff member hurriedly shook his head, but reminded, "This mission is not easy. We need to go deep into the demon tribe for more than 2,000 miles. There is a high probability that we will encounter the demon army. Are you sure you want to accept it?"
"We're sure."
Hearing Ye Tian’s calm tone, the staff could only sigh.
"Okay then, I'll do the formalities for you now."
"But for the Demon Hunters, the most important thing is to protect yourself and never work too hard for merit."
The staff who can work here are very responsible. If they determine that the team that accepts the task is unable to complete it, they may even refuse to issue the task.
After all, everything is to protect the safety of the demon hunting team.
And the other party was also kind-hearted, so Ye Tian nodded slightly.
"Thanks for the reminder. We will be careful and cautious. If something is impossible, we will give up on our own initiative."
"That's good."
The staff didn't say anything more and started registering.
Soon the mission was successfully accepted.
Ye Tian also obtained the mission props to explore gems.
This gem is not big in size and its main function is to record the mission process. It only needs to inject spiritual power to continuously record and store the images.
Basically every mission needs to be proven through images.
Of course, the piece in Ye Tian's hand is borrowed temporarily. If he wants to buy it himself, he will have to spend one thousand merits, which is quite expensive.
Then go to the killing mission counter to accept two killing missions.
The mission objectives are to kill twenty sixth-order low-level demons and ten sixth-order intermediate demons, and the mission rewards are far less than those of the exploration mission.
As for the killing mission that Wang Yuanyuan mentioned that would reward 20,000 merits, it required killing ten seventh-level intermediate demons.
Ye Tian wanted to answer it, but was ruthlessly rejected by the staff.
There is no other choice but to settle for the next best thing.
"Let's go!"
Since everything has been prepared, there is no need to waste any more time.
Ye Tian and his companions left the holy city and headed straight to the southeast according to the map given in the mission.
A few days later, when the Demon Hunting Group's mission tower discovered that the mission information was wrong and wanted to change the mission level and reward, it was already too late.
Ye Tian was not aware of the situation in the mission tower.
The General-level Demon Hunting Group No. 21 was already far away from the Holy City.
The Holy Demon Continent is vast, but at least three quarters of its area is controlled by the demons.
The Temple Alliance could only be squeezed into the northwest corner and barely survive.
Since entering the Dark Ages, the demons have divided the area under their jurisdiction into twenty-four provinces, each of which is governed by a demon god.
Other demon gods are scattered throughout the demon territory.
The Demon Clan Central Area is also known as the Demon Clan Central Province. It is the largest of the 24 provinces and is located in the southeast of the center of the Demon Clan territory. The Demon Palace of the Demon God Emperor is located here. Ye Tian and his party traveled day and night and arrived at the border in just a few days.
This trip spans almost the entire Holy Alliance.
"Xingxun City is ahead," Ye Tian glanced at the map, then turned back to look at Wang Yuanyuan, "Three hundred miles ahead is the southeast fortress where the Warrior Temple is located. Sister Yuanyuan, you are very familiar with this place, do you have any good suggestions?"
Wang Yuanyuan was not nervous and immediately took over the conversation.
"My suggestion is to rest in Xingxun City for a while."
"What do you mean?" Li Xin asked.
Wang Yuanyuan explained softly, "There are some free merchants in border cities who specialize in buying and selling between humans and demons."
"The Demon Tribe is conducting very strict searches near the border. The eight of us are quite a target, so it won't be easy to sneak past."
"The free merchants are caught between the human and demon forces. Both sides don't care about their existence, and usually don't attack them."
"So my opinion is that we can blend into the group of free merchants and enter the demon territory openly."
"This way we won't alert the enemy, and we can just leave the team later."
Wang Yuanyuan said a lot, and it all made sense.
Naturally, everyone has no objection to this.
However, Ye Tian smiled and shook his head, "Actually, there is no need to be so troublesome. Just like last time, you all stay in the different space, and I can be alone."
"We will release you after we enter the demon territory."
"really!"
Li Xin smiled and clapped her palms.
If it were an ordinary demon hunting group, they might need to blend in with free merchants, but they don't need to go through so much trouble.
"Since everyone has no objections, it's settled."
"First enter Xingxun City to rest for a while, and then set out to cross the border."
The women nodded at the same time.
Without even changing his clothes, he just rode his horse into Xingxun City.
This place is not as prosperous as the Holy City, and is even comparable to Haoyue City, but the customs are obviously different.
how to say?
The people walking on the streets are more robust.
It can be seen that the residents living here are relatively tough.
Think about it carefully.
After all, in the southeast fortress close to the Warrior Temple headquarters, the number of warriors far exceeds that of the other five professions, so it is normal to be affected in this way.
The group found a pretty good hotel to stay in.
There are many professionals coming and going, so even if unfamiliar faces like Ye Tian and others appear, they will not attract too much attention.
I checked out of the room early the next morning.
However, there were eight people when they entered Xingxun City, but only one was left when they left.
After leaving Xingxun City, Ye Tian headed straight for the Southeast Fortress.
At this time, he had changed his clothes. In addition to a cloth coat and a cotton coat, he also had a thick coat.
After all, it is early winter. Although Xingxun City is located in the central area of the continent and is not as cold as the north, it is still a long journey after entering the demon territory. Without enough warmth, it is obviously impossible to travel for a long time.
Soon Ye Tian arrived at the Southeast Fortress.
This is also one of the six fortresses of the Temple Alliance.
Similar to the Exorcist Pass, the Southeast Fortress is also one of the demons' main targets of attack.
However, due to the large number of soldiers and their strong strength, the Southeast Fortress was not so easy to break through.
