Chapter 102 Urgent Mission
"He is doubting me." Jeger noticed Zhao Yicheng's eyes.
But he didn't care, or it was normal to be suspected.
"According to the City Lord's Mansion's rule of not rejecting any powerful god, I'm afraid everyone who joins will be suspected."
Jeger also understood why the City Lord's Mansion set up mission merit points.
The purpose is to increase the cost of spy infiltration as much as possible.
A simple guest official can get nothing in the City Lord's Mansion, nor can he participate. Do you want to exchange for the treasures of Gongyang City? Yes, you can do tasks in exchange for merit points.
Want to upgrade your guest level? Sure, you can do tasks to earn merit points.
Want to take on a more important position and gain greater power in Gongyang City? Deliberately complete tasks in exchange for merit points.
Merit points are obtained by damaging the interests of Tianhuo City.
If Tianhuo City wanted to plant a spy in the upper echelons of Gongyang City, it would cost a lot simply to accumulate merit points.
"The merit points for finding a spy are really high. Killing a lower-level god of the enemy only gives 1 merit point, but finding a lower-level god spy gives 10 merit points, which is a tenfold reward." Jeger was amazed.
However, he also understood that the damage that a spy hiding inside could cause might indeed be greater than that of the opponent's people in the open.
Jeger was somewhat tempted. As long as he could catch a spy from the Central God, he could become a high-ranking guest official.
But he had no idea how to catch the spy.
"Let's take a look at other tasks."
Jager continued to check.
The City Lord's Mansion issued many missions. In addition to those targeting Tianhuo City, there were also some that were intended to strengthen themselves.
Such as looking for some precious materials.
"Mission: Find the Blackfang Spring Water; Reward: 10 Merit Points."
"Mission: Find the Bipolar Spirit Stone; Reward: 10 Merit Points."
……
There are many tasks to find materials, but many of these materials are not available in the divine world and must be found in the universe of the lower world, which is basically impossible for Jaeger to obtain.
There is also the task of collecting Hongmeng spiritual treasures.
"Task: Contribute a third-rate Hongmeng spiritual treasure; Reward: 500 merit points."
"Mission: Contribute a second-rate Hongmeng spiritual treasure; Reward: 5000 merit points."
"Mission: Contribute a first-class Hongmeng spiritual treasure; Reward: 10000 merit points."
"A third-rate Hongmeng spiritual treasure has only 200 merit points?" Jeger was surprised.
The merit points of a top-grade divine weapon are between 80 and 100, and the power of a top-grade divine weapon is comparable to that of a third-rate Hongmeng spiritual treasure. From this perspective, it seems to be a good deal to exchange a third-rate Hongmeng spiritual treasure for merit points. However, as the shopkeeper Wang of Wanbao Pavilion said, the true value of a third-rate Hongmeng spiritual treasure lies in the Hongmeng spiritual energy it contains, and the value of Hongmeng spiritual energy is more than ten times that of a top-grade divine weapon.
A third-rate Hongmeng spiritual treasure can only be exchanged for 500 merit points? Not worth it.
As for the second-rate Hongmeng Lingbao and the first-rate Hongmeng Lingbao, there is no need to mention it.
"Could it be that these tasks were deliberately set by the City Lord's Mansion for the spies in Tianhuo City?" Jegg guessed secretly.
The Lord of Tianhuo City is also a powerful God King, and his strength is not inferior to that of the Lord of Gongyang City. It is not difficult for him to take out two third-rate Hongmeng Lingbao. He may even be able to take out two second-rate Hongmeng Lingbao if he grits his teeth.
Two third-rate Hongmeng Lingbao can make a spy become a senior guest official, and two second-rate Hongmeng Lingbao can make a spy become an internal guest official, with the opportunity to enter Gongyang City and hold an important position.
“But if a powerful god really took out the Hongmeng spiritual treasure to exchange for merit points, I’m afraid the people in the City Lord’s Mansion would immediately suspect that it was a spy sent by Tianhuo City, right? The Lord of Tianhuo City is not that stupid.”
Of course, for Gongyang City, there is no loss in setting up these tasks for Hongmeng Lingbao. If someone is really willing to exchange Hongmeng Lingbao for merit points, the Lord of Gongyang City will probably be very happy.
Jaeger shook his head, not considering the tasks at all.
He looked through all the tasks and found that the only ones he could possibly complete were those related to Skyfire City, but those were only relatively easy. Whether it was killing the powerful gods in Skyfire City or finding the spies, they were not easy.
"Master Zhao, do you have any specific information about the strong men in Tianhuo City? For example, their strength, the magic weapons they use, the moves they are good at, their locations, etc." asked Jeger.
Hearing this, Zhao Yicheng guessed that Jaeger was interested in the mission related to Skyfire City, and said with a smile, "Of course, if Mr. Qiao needs it, I can give it to you."
Gongyang City and Tianhuo City have been fighting for many years, and both sides are very familiar with each other's strong men.
"Then it'll be hard work."
"Haha, you are too polite, Mr. Qiao. You are now a guest official of our City Lord's Mansion. You are willing to fight for the City Lord. As the chief clerk of the City Lord's Mansion, I must fully cooperate with you. Come on, I will take you to handle some formalities first."
Zhao Yicheng took Jiege to a window in the main hall, did a simple registration, and gave Jiege a black token, which was the guest token of the City Lord's Mansion. From today on, Jiege officially became a guest of the City Lord's Mansion of Gongyang City.
After finishing the work, Zhao Yicheng took Jiege out of the hall and came to a secluded courtyard outside the city lord's mansion.
"Qiao Keqing, this is where you live."
Jiege followed Zhao Yicheng into the yard.
The courtyard is not big, but very exquisite, with a two-story building that is big enough for Jager to live in.
Zhao Yicheng took out a jade slip and handed it to Jiger.
"Qiao Keqing, here are some rules of the City Lord's Mansion. Please remember them and do not violate them. There are also detailed instructions on how to accept and complete tasks in the jade slip. The information of the Tianhuo City masters you need is also in it. There is also information about some masters from our Gongyang City. You can take a look."
"Thank you." Jeger took the jade slip. This was exactly what he needed right now.
"Okay, I have other things to do, so I won't bother you anymore. Qiao Keqing can have a good rest. If you have any questions in the future, you can come and ask me. The courtyard where I live is not far from here."
There are many small courtyards in this area, which are where the guests, guards, clerks and other personnel of the city lord's mansion live.
Under Zhao Yicheng's guidance, Jiege wrote down Zhao Yicheng's residence.
"Thank you for your help, Mr. Zhao." Jeger was grateful.
"You're welcome, Mr. Qiao. Goodbye." Zhao Yicheng bowed and left Jiger's yard.
Jaeger closed the gate and walked into the two-story building.
The furnishings in the small building were simple, with only some basic furniture, such as tables and chairs, etc., but it was enough for Jiege, who did not have high requirements for living. After a simple tidying up, Jiege sat down and checked the jade slip given by Zhao Yicheng.
The first thing he paid attention to was the information about some powerful upper-level gods in Gongyang City.
When he came to the God Realm again, he had to find a way to improve his strength first, and the best way was to copy the understanding of the laws of space by the upper gods.
The most famous upper god in Gongyang City is Gongyang Yu, the daughter of Gongyang City Lord. She has no flaws in her understanding of spatial laws, magic weapons, and martial arts techniques. She is known as the number one upper god in Gongyang City and commands the strongest ram army in Gongyang City.
In addition to Gongyang Yu, the commanders of the other two of Gongyang City's three legions are also powerful upper-level gods, and several of Gongyang City Lord's most outstanding disciples have also reached the realm of upper-level gods.
These are the fighting forces of the City Lord's Mansion, and in the entire Gongyang City, there are also some idle upper gods. For example, Master Liu Yun of Wanbao Pavilion is an upper god.
"If I can learn from these upper gods, I can copy their understanding of the laws of space, but I am not familiar with them, so they may not agree. Even if they agree, I cannot guarantee that they will not kill me."
Now, Jager is only a middle-level god and cannot resist the "space collapse" performed by the upper-level gods. Therefore, he dares to copy his understanding of the laws of space through sparring only when he is sure that the other party will not kill him.
"I am now a guest of the City Lord's Mansion, and can barely be considered a member of the City Lord's Mansion. I wonder if the commanders of the three legions will agree to spar with me." Jeger was a little unsure.
The commanders of the three legions are all from the inner court, and are the absolute confidants of the Lord of Gongyang City. Their status is much higher than that of him, a guest from the outer court. They may not necessarily pay attention to Jeger.
Besides, they were all in the inner palace, and Jaeger couldn't see them easily.
"If that doesn't work, just accumulate merit points first. Once your status is raised, you will naturally be able to come into contact with them."
Jager was not in a hurry at this moment. His millennium had just begun and he had plenty of time.
He read through all the contents of the jade slip and gained a basic understanding of the situations around Gongyang City and Tianhuo City. He also knew exactly how to accept missions and gain merit points.
The tasks issued by the Gongyang City Lord's Mansion can be accepted with the guest token, and there is no limit to the number of tasks each guest can accept at the same time. In other words, Jaeger can take on all the tasks and claim the rewards for the tasks he completes.
It is also very simple to accept the task. Each guest token is connected to the task screen, and you can accept it by entering your spiritual consciousness into the token.
"Take on all the tasks first, and then see which ones are relatively easy to complete."
Jaeger took on all the missions, but his focus was still on the powerful gods in Tianhuo City.
Killing a central god in Tianhuo City will earn you 100 merit points. As long as you kill ten, you will be promoted to a senior guest official. Moreover, 1000 merit points are just enough to accelerate time for one year.
Jager is now also a Central Heavenly God. He has no disadvantage in the laws of space. Coupled with his physical advantage, he has no problem dealing with ordinary Central Heavenly Gods.
“If I become a high-ranking guest official, my status in the City Lord’s Mansion will also be improved, and I will have the hope of establishing a relationship with the high-ranking gods and powerful men in the City Lord’s Mansion.”
If you can get 1000 merit points, you can not only accelerate the time by one year, but also improve your status, which can be said to be killing two birds with one stone.
However, killing the central god of Tianhuo City is not an easy task. He can't just go to Tianhuo City directly, so he must plan carefully.
In the next few days, Jeger used the intelligence from the Gongyang City Lord's Mansion to basically figure out the approximate distribution of the central heavenly gods under the command of the Tianhuo City Lord.
The strong men under the command of the Lord of Tianhuo City are mainly divided into two parts, one part is in Tianhuo City, and the other part is guarding the major divine stone mines controlled by Tianhuo City.
"According to the intelligence the City Lord's Mansion has, there are usually upper gods guarding the divine stone mines, and there are more than one middle gods. I definitely can't handle it alone. It seems I can only wait for collective action." Jeger said secretly.
From time to time, Gongyang City and Tianhuo City would organize strong men to attack the divine stone mines or villages controlled by the other side, just like Tianhuo City attacked Xishan Village many years ago.
At that time, in addition to the strong men of the legion, guest officials like Jeger will also be able to join the war.
"A few days ago, Miss Yu led many powerful gods out of the city. I don't know whether they were going to attack or provide support. It's a pity. If it had happened a few days earlier, I could have gone with her."
With Gong Yangyu around, Jiger doesn't need to worry about dealing with the upper gods of Tianhuo City. He just needs to follow the team and look for opportunities to kill the middle gods of Tianhuo City. It will be much safer than acting alone.
"Wait until next time."
There was still more time to stay in the divine realm, so Jager was in no hurry.
"buzz"
At this moment, Jager sensed something and took out his guest token.
"Is there an urgent mission?"
It was mentioned in the jade slip given by Zhao Yicheng that the City Lord's Mansion would occasionally issue some urgent tasks and notify all guests through guest tokens.
Jager was looking forward to it.
Generally speaking, emergency tasks are not easy, but correspondingly, the rewards will also be very generous.
Jaeger's spiritual consciousness entered the token and he quickly saw the content of the urgent task.
"Urgent mission: Go to Luoxia Mountain to support the Gongyang Legion, defeat the strong men from Tianhuo City, and rescue the legion leader Gongyang Yu; Reward: 10,000 merit points, plus a favor from the Lord of Gongyang City."
When Jaeger saw the content of the urgent task, his face changed immediately.
"Save the ram jade!"
Jiger was shocked. Gongyangyu was a powerful upper god, and the strongest upper god in Gongyang City? There were only a handful of people in Tianhuo City who could pose a threat to her. Could it be the Lord of Tianhuo City?
As soon as this thought came to his mind, Jager rejected it himself.
"No, if it was the Lord of Skyfire City who attacked Gongyang Yu, the Lord of Gongyang City would definitely come to rescue him personally. The Divine King's divine sense can cover the entire Divine Realm, and he can use the laws of space to teleport, which is much faster than issuing an emergency mission to ask for help."
“Gong Yangyu’s opponent should be the powerful upper-level god of Tianhuo City. It is not easy for Gong Yang City Lord to take action.”
Although Gongyang City and Tianhuo City have been fighting for many years, there has basically never been a situation where a powerful God King attacked a powerful God.
Because both sides have powerful God-Kings, if the God-King of one side takes action, the God-King of the other side will certainly take action as well. Then it will be an all-round war. Unless it is absolutely necessary, the God-Kings of both sides will not take action. This is a tacit understanding that has naturally formed between the two sides over countless years.
"There is actually an upper-level god in Tianhuo City who can threaten Gongyang Yu. Who is it?"
Jeger looked at the information of the strong men in Tianhuo City, but did not find anyone who could defeat Gong Yangyu.
He realized that the matter was not simple and it was probably not something that he, a Central Heavenly God, could intervene in, but the reward for the mission really made him excited.
If one could obtain 10,000 merit points and a favor from Lord Gongyang City, not only could he use time to accelerate his cultivation, he could even directly request Lord Gongyang City to compete with him and copy his comprehension of the spatial laws to that of a powerful God King.
If you miss such an opportunity, you may never get it again.
"Let's go check out the details first."
Jager left the courtyard where he lived and went to the mission hall, wanting to learn more details about the mission.
