Chapter 247: Chapter 77: Beast Tamer’s Profession Task_2

To loan or not to loan, it’s really a personal choice.

Within less than fifteen minutes, the person sending the horse arrived, none other than Hidden Dragon Do Not Use, whom I had met once before.

Xiao Jie had realized that these core members of the Dragon Soaring Knights were likely acquainted in real life; otherwise, they wouldn’t all have names involving dragons.

"Oh, you are the Sub-Branch Leader?"

Now that he had joined the guild, Xiao Jie could also see the roles of others.

Though Hidden Dragon Do Not Use wasn’t very high-level, only level 26, he was already the Sub-Branch Leader of Luoyang Town.

Hidden Dragon Do Not Use recognized Xiao Jie as well, "Sui Feng, long time no see. The leader mentioned you, welcome to the Dragon Soaring Knights. It seems we really are fated. Now that we’re all part of one family, we’ll need to look out for each other. Are these the new recruits you brought in?"

"That’s right, some of them are my old friends, and the others are newbies I met along the way. That’s no problem, right?" Being straightforward, sometimes it’s better to clarify things.

"No problem, the more friends, the more paths, right?" Hidden Dragon did not care about cliques within the guild and generously provided mounts to the seven people.

The six newbies each took loans of thirty silver taels, only Hidden Moon did not ask.

After freely distributing the money, Hidden Dragon asked, "Sui Feng, aren’t you taking out a loan?"

"No need, I’m not short of money," Xiao Jie politely responded.

Eating from someone’s hand is like being fed by them; he knew the more he took, the more he’d have to return. The idea of taking advantage without giving back was something Xiao Jie couldn’t do.

Besides, it’s borrowing money, not a gift. If it was a gift, perhaps he’d consider it...

"All right, but don’t be shy about asking if you need money later."

"Haha, will do, will do."

Hidden Moon whispered, "Why do I get the feeling they’re hinting at something?"

Deceitful Fox quickly, "Shh."

Hidden Dragon spoke again, "By the way, Sui Feng, the leader posted a notice in the guild group yesterday, asking each town’s Sub-Branch to organize members for leveling, fighting bosses, upgrading equipment, and collecting strategic resources. We’re planning to discuss this in a smaller group meeting at 8 pm tonight. If you’re interested, Sui Feng, make sure to join."

"Will do, will do."

Xiao Jie had no objections about participating; since he was benefitting from others, it was only right to work for them.

Moreover, he needed to level up and upgrade his equipment, so it was better to follow the main force for safety.

After Hidden Dragon left, Xiao Jie suddenly remembered something else.

"Oh, Hidden Moon, have you completed your profession task?"

"Yes, it took a lot of effort, but I managed it. How about you, have you completed your profession task?"

"I haven’t gotten one," Xiao Jie said, feeling speechless.

"You didn’t go to the posthouse?"

"The posthouse?"

Hidden Moon, speechless, "Okay, I forgot you’re a newbie too. Follow me, and you guys who need to take on a profession task, follow me as well."

The three in Deceitful Fox’s group hurriedly followed; it was their first time hearing about profession tasks.

Even Dongfang Sheng, along with his two buddies, came along as they were about to acquire their professions. Understanding the process of profession tasks was indeed crucial.

The group made their way to the posthouse in Luoyang Town.

"Find the posthouse soldier to receive your mail. Profession tasks are generally distributed in the form of letters. Be careful in choosing; there are usually three options, and each task offers different rewards, and you can’t redo them, so make sure you don’t choose the wrong one," Hidden Moon advised.

Xiao Jie stepped forward.

"Posthouse soldier, do you have any mail for me?"

The soldier, an old veteran, nodded eagerly, "Yes, yes, young hero, please take care."

[System Prompt: You’ve received 3 letters.]

Three letters suddenly appeared in his bag.

It wasn’t just one letter.

Xiao Jie opened one to check.

The signature on the first letter was — Ten Thousand Beasts Manor.

It must be related to a profession quest.

[Hidden Moon Following Wind:

I heard that you are quite experienced in beast taming. I am very interested in this. If you’re willing, you can serve our Ten Thousand Beasts Manor, and there will be substantial rewards.

Below are three tasks. You can choose one to undertake. If you do well, there will be a reward; if not — no reward.

Ten Thousand Beasts Manor Manor Lord, Ji Xiaotian]

Xiao Jie was speechless. Ji Xiaotian’s wording was really both concise and shocking.

He continued to check the attachment of the letter, and upon clicking it, an option bar immediately popped up.

[System Prompt: Profession quest triggered. Please choose one of the three profession tasks below. Note: Players can only choose one profession task, and the abandoned tasks cannot be reselected. Please choose carefully.]

Task 1: "Ten Thousand Beasts Gathering" Completion.

Task Content: Help Ten Thousand Beasts Manor collect more beast illustrations. Collect 20 kinds of beast illustrations and incorporate them into the "Ten Thousand Beasts Gathering" of the manor.

Task Reward: Gain an informational skill — Beast Atlas???. You can choose one from [Beast Atlas: Exotic Beasts Chapter][Beast Atlas: Demon Beasts Chapter][Beast Atlas: Immortal Beasts Chapter][Beast Atlas: Ghost Beasts Chapter].

Task 2: Beast Duel Master.

Task Content: Participate in a monthly beast duel competition (Level 11-19 category) with your pet, and obtain the title of Beast Duel Master (win at least seven out of ten duels).

Task Reward: Gain the skill — Training Pets. You can train your pets to master skills they do not originally have (the skill must conform to the biological characteristics of the beast).

Task 3: Donation of Resources.

Task Content: Donate a batch of resources to Ten Thousand Beasts Manor to help build more beast stalls. You need to pay for any three of the following resources (wheat straw bundles, wood, stone), totaling 1000 pieces.

Task Reward: Portable Mobile Beast Stall. You can temporarily store a pet in the stall to capture new pets and switch them out anytime in non-combat conditions (the stored pet also needs feeding).

Wow, these profession task rewards are really good.

The first task’s reward means I can tame special pets. You know, the taming of beasts mainly depends on their taming difficulty, and with the corresponding beast atlas, the taming difficulty will relatively decrease.

This means I can tame the special beasts corresponding to the atlas.

By then, taming an Immortal Beast or Demon Beasts would be so cool.

The second task’s reward means I can teach my pet new skills, like if I teach a bear to mount, it can be used as a mount.

Of course, this training cannot cross species. For instance, teaching a dog to mount would surely fail, or teaching a crocodile to climb trees would also fail.

It’s only possible to complete skills that a pet might have but lacks, essentially turning the pet into an all-skill pet.

The third one is easier to understand.

I can capture an extra pet, switching between two as necessary. This is also not bad since often I confront different situations, and different pets can play different roles. Having multiple pets gives more options.

However, after hesitating for a moment, Xiao Jie still decisively chose Task One.

No matter how strong the normal beasts are trained, they can’t compare to Immortal or Demon Beasts. If I could capture an Azure Dragon, a White Tiger, or something like a Demonized Giant Wolf or other elite monsters, that would be unbeatable.

System Prompt: Task "Ten Thousand Beasts Gathering" Completion accepted. Current task progress 6/20.

Good, I already have six types.

Just need to collect fourteen more, looks like I’ll need to interact more with wild beasts in the future.
