The ancestor of talismans

#677 - Companion Mission

"One year..."

Xu Changshou was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that the deadline for this task was only one year.

"Senior Sister Su, when was the mission released?"

"It was sent this morning. Don't worry, Junior Brother Ximen. Your one-year deadline does not start from the time the mission is issued, but from the time you accept the mission."

"Okay, I'll take this mission."

"Hold on……"

Soon, Susie sorted out two task agreements and asked Xu Changshou to sign them.

Xu Changshou took a look at the content of the mission agreement and found that the core content of the mission agreement was that Wang Luankun’s property was not allowed to be touched.

Originally, Xu Changshou thought that after capturing Wang Luankun alive, all his property would belong to him.

Unexpectedly, that wasn't the case.

After all, Xu Changshou's understanding of this world is still shallow.

What he didn't know was that in any wanted mission, whether it was a pursuit mission, a monster hunting mission, or a capture mission, the wanted person's property was not allowed to be touched.

This world has rules.

Many wanted targets have victims behind them. Once their money is recovered, it must be returned to the victims in full. If there is no victim, then the money of the wanted target will belong to the person who issued the mission.

Of course, the target of this wanted order must be someone who has committed the most heinous crimes. The Immortal Cultivation Union will not issue a wanted order for a normal person or a demon cultivator casually.

Two agreements were signed, one remained in the Xiuxian Guild and one was given to Xu Changshou.

In this way, the task is successfully completed.

Seeing that Xu Changshou had put away the agreement, Susie then handed over a palm-sized cage.

The cage is made of black metal, giving it an unusually hard feeling. It is unknown what kind of metal it is made of.

"This is..." Xu Changshou reached out and took the cage, his face full of confusion.

Susie smiled and said, "This is a top-grade magic weapon, a tungsten steel ball cage. Once you have subdued and captured the wanted person, you can use this ball cage to trap him. Remember, this ball cage can only trap people who don't resist, and cannot be used as a normal magic weapon."

Xu Changshou was a little bit unconvinced and asked, "Is this really possible to control the Nascent Soul Great Perfection?"

Susie: "As long as the person is subdued, even if he is a cultivator in the early stage of transformation, he cannot escape from the tungsten steel ball cage."

"All right."

Xu Changshou put the ball cage into the storage bag and asked curiously, "Senior Sister Su, you let me take it away like this. Aren't you afraid that I will run away with the ball cage?"

Susie smiled slightly: "This thing has a mark left by the Great God of Fusion. Even if you go to the ends of the earth, you can still accurately locate it. If you don't believe it, you can try it."

"Forehead……"

Xu Changshou was speechless: "Forget it."

Glancing at Xu Changshou, Su Qian smiled and said, "Junior Brother Ximen looks a little unfamiliar. This must be your first time taking on this kind of mission."

Xu Changshou nodded: "I just redeemed myself, this is my first mission."

Susie gave a thumbs up: "Junior Brother Ximen is really brave. He dared to accept such a dangerous mission for the first time."

"Just take a task to practice."

Xu Changshou scratched his head, knowing that Susie was laughing at him for being ignorant of the immensity of the world.

As the person in charge of the counter, Susie certainly knew that with Xu Changshou's cultivation level, it was not appropriate for him to take on such a task.

But she has her professional ethics. Accepting tasks is other people's business. As a staff member of the Xiuxian Union, she will not make any comments.

Knowing that whoever accepts the mission will die, he won't say anything more.

“That’s right!”

Su Qian reminded him, "Junior Brother Ximen, I warn you, it's best not to touch the wanted person's property, not even a single cent. There is a Heavenly Dao Agreement. If you take something you shouldn't take, Heavenly Dao will definitely hold you accountable."

"Thank you, Senior Sister Su, for reminding me. I know the severity of the situation."

"Um."

Susie nodded and said no more.

"Goodbye, Senior Sister Su!" Xu Changshou waved and left the counter.

Susie shook her head slightly: "I'm afraid there will be no chance to see you again."

She certainly didn't think that Xu Changshou could complete the task.

In her opinion, it would be better for Xu Changshou not to meet Wang Luankun, otherwise he would surely die.

…

After leaving the Xiuxian Guild, Xu Changshou immediately contacted Nalan Wei:

Senior Sister Nalan, I have received the mission.

Nalan Wei: What mission?

Xu Changshou: Capture the flower-stealing thief Wang Luankun alive.

Xu Changshou: Senior Sister Nalan, you have to have faith in me. I can do it. Wait for my good news.

Nalan Wei: You have to be careful. This mission only lasts for one year. If you can't do it, don't force yourself. The mission will be automatically canceled after one year and it won't affect you. Don't try to be stubborn.

Xu Changshou: Thank you, Senior Sister Nalan, for your concern.

Nalan Wei: Go away, it doesn’t matter to you. By the way, let me remind you, never touch Wang Luankun’s property. Don’t take what you shouldn’t. Even if Wang Luankun has 10 million, it’s still his property.

Xu Changshou: I understand.

Susie and Nalan Wei both reminded him not to touch Wang Luankun's property. It seemed that it would be impossible to make money from Wang Luankun.

Nalan Wei: Also, this time the mission is to go to Wanghai City. You can take a simple and easy mission as long as you can earn enough money for the trip.

Yes!

When Xu Changshou saw the message from Nalan Wei, he suddenly understood.

The main mission of this trip to Wanghai City is to capture Wang Luankun alive. He can definitely take on some tasks related to going to Wanghai City.

Thinking of this, Xu Changshou returned to the counter where Susie was.

When Susie saw him coming back, a smile appeared on her lips: "Why, do you regret it?"

"No!"

Xu Changshou shook his head and said, "Senior Sister Su, I'm going to Wanghai City and would like to take on some side missions. Do you have any recommendations?"

Susie thought for a moment and said with a smile, "You need to take a ground rail flying boat to go to Wanghai City. You can take some escort missions and go directly to the escort mission counter."

"Thank you, Senior Sister Su."

Xu Changshou thanked him and hurried towards the escort counter.

He looked around and found that there were many escort missions to Wanghai City on the ground orbit flying boat. However, the employers had requirements, generally requiring the cultivation of the Nascent Soul Great Perfection. Some even required the Divine Transformation cultivator.

The cultivation level that Xu Changshou registered using the fictitious name Ximen Dagang was the late Nascent Soul stage, which was not high enough.

Glancing at the woman guarding the counter, Xu Changshou bowed and said, "Senior sister, I am going to Wanghai City to do a mission. While I am riding the ground orbit flying boat, I would like to take on a mission. Is there a suitable one? Recommend one."

The woman smiled and said, "The best mission is, of course, an escort mission. However, your cultivation is too low, and most employers don't look down on you. You can choose a companion mission. The commission for issuing a companion mission is lower, and the employer's requirements are also lower."

Xu Changshou nodded slightly and asked again: "Aren't escorting and accompanying the same? What's the difference?"
