Chapter 41 Bounty and Ghoul
Five to five!
Initially, during the temporary recruitment, it was set as seven or three points.
During the mission, due to the correct inference given by Han Dong, it was speculated that there was a secret escape route in the basement, and Cass would divide it up to 40%.
Later, due to Han Dong's assistance, only one ghoul was released and killed with Han Dong's unique ability.
Cass Maldini, after submitting the reward quest, directly distributed Han Dong half a bag of heavy copper coins at the entrance of the church.
So many? Han Dong was a little surprised, this bag of copper coins was at least about a hundred.
If it wasn't for your help this time, I would not only be unable to complete the task, but even put my life in danger. This is what you deserve... In addition, according to your request, you only mentioned me when handing in the task. person's name.
Cass didn't ask too much about why Han Dong deliberately concealed it. After all, everyone has privacy... Cass estimates that Han Dong sneaked out. If the academy finds out, these bounties will be white-collar workers.
Um.
Han Dong does not know how much the half bag of copper coins is worth.
Friend Andrew, is your summoner a 'contract signing type' or a 'mind control type'? It's amazing!
The former.
It seems that it is no coincidence that you can obtain the weapon of destiny!
Can you leave a contact information? In the future, if there is any bounty task that needs to be solved by a team, or until an important moment of destiny, I can execute it with you.
Even though I was injured in dealing with ghouls before, I was still very serious when I was serious.
It's not that Han Dong doesn't want to team up.
Knowing a Crusader who has been assigned 3 Destiny Points is very good for Han Dong's future development.
It's just that Han Dong didn't know how to answer this question.
Contact, naturally represents the contemporary means of communication.
However, according to normal history, the means of communication in the steam age is still at the stage of 'paper letters'... The telegraph did not appear until the beginning of the second industrial revolution.
Han Dong asked Nina about this.
The result is that there is no 'electricity' in the Holy City-Nointena, and naturally there is no telegraph, and it is still the follow-up means of radio communication.
However, the means of communication still exist.
Under the special background of the times, the supernatural and steam technology collided head-on, and human beings in the apocalypse developed an alternative means of communication.
Let the copper parts cooperate with the gears to output relevant signals.
The signal is transmitted through the precise identification of the array, which can achieve 'timely delivery' and 'directional delivery'.
It is equivalent to a communication product produced by the combination of magic and metal.
What exactly it looks like, Han Dong doesn't know.
Just when Han Dong didn't know how to answer 'contact information', Cass used his index finger and thumb to buckle the clockwork on his wrist.
The mainspring mechanism that originally looked like a watch made a 'clicking sound'.
Fold and unfold.
The precision copper keys appear from the inside, so that the clockwork device derives a kind of operation panel similar to the old-fashioned mobile phone. The copper keys 1~9 have a touch similar to that of a typewriter.
Han Dong immediately followed suit, and sure enough, the clockwork device also derived an operation panel.
At the same time, at the bottom of the clockwork mechanism, a digital code is also generated...that is, the machine number.
In this way, the two exchanged numbers, and Han Dong officially became a 'apprentice knight'.
At least it can be seen from the ghoul incident that Cas Maldini is a very good person and is worth making friends with.
That's it, my armor has to be repaired quickly, what will happen in the future,
We are always in touch.
See you.
To be honest, Han Dong, who had just escaped from the space of destiny, had not had time to study this clockwork device.
At present, I have been staring at the clockwork device for a long time, and I feel that this is a masterpiece, and there may be other auxiliary functions... Activated when Han Dong becomes a trainee knight.
go home.
Taking the identity of a trainee knight, Han Dong set off from the church, crossed the Mosrabi River with sentry guards, and returned to the familiar civilian area of Samai.
Nina has registered the family of 'Apprentice Knight' in the Public Security Bureau. Their family will not be restricted by the mandatory rules of the area and can move out of the slum at any time.
Han Dong just came home.
Nina swooped and hugged it tightly, slurring her words with excitement.
After all, Han Dong has brought too many changes to the family.
Brother... did you know!? After you were taken away, Magistrate Dais personally came to apologize and gave us five copper coins! Now you don't have to worry about what you want to eat.
Is five copper coins a lot?
A lot! Mom can only earn ten copper coins when she works outside for a year... I follow the master and occasionally give me a copper coin at the end of the month when I'm in a good mood.
Oh?
Han Dong put the sack in his hand directly on the table.
Hearing the sound of metal crashing from the sack... Nina's body shook as well.
Han Dong said with an ordinary face: You and your mother can use this money. If you want to move to the other side of the Mosrabi River, you should need to replace the new furniture, right?
Nina was silent.
Instead, he slowly approached the sack and opened it.
There were piles of copper coins, which Nina had never seen before, not even in her dreams.
He stood there dumbfounded, unable to say a word, and even his eyes became a little lax.
After waiting for a long time, Nina whispered hesitantly:
Brother, you...Did you use the power you got to rob...
Rest assured, the money obtained through normal channels.
This... how much is this!?
I don't know, I haven't counted it. In short, you can keep it. If I need it financially, I will ask you to get it. You can control the rest.
Brother... me, me. Nina was so anxious that she almost cried.
Calculate how much money you have first, just put it away... When we move to the other side of the Mosrabi River, we will take it out and use it.
I know, I know!!
Holding the purse, Nina looked around for fear of being discovered by a stranger, and then hurried to the bedroom she shared with her mother.
First count the huge sum of money one by one, and then put the purse at the bottom of the wardrobe.
As for Han Dong, he went back to the bedroom alone, closed the door and locked the door... When it was time to eat, Nina would naturally call him.
Han Dong doesn't care much about copper coins. Since they can be obtained through bounty quests, there will be opportunities in the future.
What Han Dong cares about is the [unexpected gain] this time.
This time, the ghoul incident is not as simple as getting a bounty.
Han Dong also obtained Cell Essence, a complete mature ghoul arm, and related books about 'ghoul' found by Chen Li in the house.
(Chen Li does not understand English, but her visual images can be actively conveyed to Han Dong, and she can find relevant books under the guidance of Han Dong.)
Han Dong read it quickly and carefully as if he were reading scientific research documents.
Read the relevant books in a short time, simplify the information, and organize it in a notebook.
【Ghoul】
Formation reasons: cemetery work, ideological degeneration.
It is common for cemetery workers or residents living around the cemetery. When infected with cemetery fungus or attacked by yin, the body will be in a cemetery state.
Common anorexia, anorexia, fear of life and other characteristics.
Once you find this symptom, you need to go to the church in time to receive the relevant holy baptism... Until the symptoms subside, do not approach the cemetery.
If not dealt with in a timely manner, the individual has a 70% chance of dying and a 20% chance of going mad.
The remaining 10% possibility, during the night dreaming, establishes a secret ideological connection with the 'higher creatures' outside the city walls, thus being affected by the 'degenerate' and evolving into a ghoul.
Newborn ghouls need to eat cemetery moss, fungi and other spooky things as food.
Eager to eat and only active at night, their green skin and rancid odor are easy to spot.
Once fed enough and fully mature, ghouls will have sound minds and will attempt to reproduce and establish ghoul dens.
