Section 3 Puppet City
Lance was stunned for a moment, his eyes stayed on the information that had just been refreshed.
[Puppet City (A-level mission)]: According to the prophecy of the high-level wizard of the castle, the puppet city inside the Wind Dragon Canyon in the north of Ferrondor will be opened soon, and all wizard apprentices (including servants) are allowed to enter the puppet city and complete the mission.
[Class I mission: Get the magic doll in Princess Hiro's hands. Remuneration: Permanent public student qualification + a bottle of magic burning potion (servant); designated instructor guidance + twelve level one spells for free learning + sixty resource points + a bottle of magic burning potion (self-paid student/public student)]
[Class C mission: Collect unique plants, potions, magic creatures, and magical items fragments. Remuneration: Give it according to the price list in the attachment.]
[Class K mission: Draw a map, come out of the Puppet City alive, and draw a map wherever you go. Remuneration: Depending on the completeness of the map, five magic stones start.]
[Time: It is expected to be half a month later.]
[Tip 1: The Puppet City is an extremely dangerous place. So far, the wizards of Ferrondor have insufficient exploration of the Puppet City, and have only entered one percent of the area. Every time the Puppet City is open, due to arcane interference, only wizard apprentices can enter, but the monsters and puppets inside have a strong sense of territory and combat ability. Data shows that in the last time, Ferrondor had a total of 2,700 wizard apprentices entered the Puppet City, and in the end only 300 wizard apprentices survived.]
[Tip 2: Public-funded students who participate in the Puppet City mission can receive a bottle of sweet blood potion before leaving; students who are self-funded can receive a bottle of glimmering potion; servants can receive a bottle of secondary sweet blood potion]
[The task has been collected by 29 people]
...
Lance took a deep breath, and he clearly saw that the numbers showing how many numbers that received this task were beating wildly. He had just finished watching the task, and 29 people received it. But in just a few seconds, the number reached the 100 mark!
Of course he knew why this mission was so hot!
The Puppet City mission is actually a large-scale mission. Scarlet Castle has issued a unique task (Class I mission), a collection task (Class C mission) and a map drawing task. The most attractive thing is naturally the Class I mission. Through reading the task description, Lance knew that the so-called Class I meant unique.
In other words, at most, only one person can complete this task.
"Is Princess Hero's magic doll?" Lance thought to himself. It is not difficult to see from the task description that the Puppet City is a very dangerous place, otherwise the wizard apprentices who entered it last time would not have such a tragic chance of survival. It is probably not that easy to get this magic doll.
But the reward for the task is indeed very attractive!
For servants like Lance, as long as they find magic dolls, they can obtain permanent public student qualifications! This means that they can get rid of their servant status and become an official member of Scarlet Castle.
According to Lance, most of the first people who chose to receive tasks should be servants who had been tortured for a long time. They were squeezed by Scarlet Castle all day long, and this time they finally had the opportunity to struggle, so they must seize it. As for why their reaction was so fast, Lance guessed that there should be other more flexible ways to receive tasks in the castle for senior servants or students to choose.
On the contrary, those formal apprentices should not be so anxious. They have a bright future. Unless they encounter some major bottleneck, they cannot break through anyway. They can only choose to fight to the death. Others should consider whether it is worthwhile to use their lives to explore the path for the senior management.
Lance did not expect to grab the so-called magic doll from many people with higher mana than his. He was concerned about two other tasks. The task of drawing a map is the easiest for Lance. Others may be distracted by the dangerous environment of the Puppet City and failed to record the map in detail, but Lance has the main chip, which is not a problem.
The most important thing is the collection task. He looked at the price list and found that the top leaders of the castle gave a very high purchase price for the unique materials produced in the puppet city.
"No wonder so many people flocked to the last time the Puppet City opened." Lance looked at the price list with a wry smile, thinking to himself: "A puppet knight's core, the castle's top management gave a purchase price of up to forty magic stones! The rest, such as fragments of magic items, unique magic materials, etc., are also very expensive."
The prices of these items gave Lance the illusion of whether the magic stone suddenly depreciated.
Browsing the staggering purchase price, Lance vaguely felt the sinister intentions of the high-level Scarlet Castle. While reminding the servants and students of the dangers of the puppet city, he used the high purchase price to stimulate the wizard apprentices to enter the puppet city to work for them. Most of the servants could not refuse such temptation.
Because it was almost the only chance of freedom in their dark life, they had to fight to the death.
...
Lance was silent for a while and resolutely chose to accept the task. Like other servants, he had no choice.
He even felt that he was quite lucky. As soon as he became a servant of Scarlet Castle, he had the task of Puppet City. Otherwise, it would be almost a fantasy to earn one hundred magic stones in this month.
He didn't think about the magic puppet anymore. There would definitely be countless people crazy about such things. With the poor magic power of Lance, he would definitely be seeking death to snatch treasures from higher apprentices with two or three times his magic power.
He was preparing to enter the puppet city, and he would select some magic materials based on the price list, and try to avoid fighting. As long as he could collect enough materials, he could also obtain many magic stones, perhaps getting rid of the curse of poisonous snakes.
But before that, he must be well prepared.
"Is there still half a month?"
The moment Lance took over this task, the brazier beside him with green flames suddenly flashed, and a bottle of light pink potion emerged from the flames in the void.
Lance accepted this bottle of secondary sweet blood potion. He knew that this kind of potion could treat minor injuries, but the treatment for internal injuries and major bleeding was far less than that of authentic sweet blood potion, nor as good as glimmers.
It's just a motivation that is better than nothing.
He packed up and got up and left the mission hall.
Since he already had a nameplate in his hand, Lance had become a part of the Scarlet Castle and could basically pass through most areas of the castle. He searched for a while and found that he could not find the exit from the castle.
In desperation, he could only pull a red-robed wizard who looked pretty good and asked.
The other party's answer was very straightforward: "New? A magic stone."
Lance was silent for a while and smiled: "Let's forget it."
After saying that, he turned around and walked away.
The man sneered: "Okay, stingy guy. Follow the third walkway on the left and then turn right. You can find a downward staircase. Walk down and you will find a place called Eternal Night Platform. There, a bone train will lead to the Wizards Shopping Mall every hour. Remember to wait on Platform 8, and the rest of the platforms are very dangerous. This is the only way to leave the castle. No. 1 is allowed to stay around the castle, otherwise you will be arrested and become a servant."
"Boy, you should thank me. Most people are not interested in telling you so much."
After hearing the other party's words, a bitter smile flashed across Lance's heart. It turned out that the wizards of Scarlet Castle took a train to enter and exit the castle. Without knowing it, it was really unlucky to be arrested as servants.
He stretched out his right hand and said sincerely: "Thank you, my name is Lance."
"Karl Sulkar." The man shook hands with Lance and introduced himself: "A junior apprentice, ready to advance to the Blood Mage, a public-funded student under the tutor Haneri."
"And you?"
Lance let go of his hand and shrugged: "I am one of the unlucky people who have just been caught in because they stayed casually near the castle."
Shuyikare's eyes widened.
