A Top Scholar in Everything
Chapter 1152 - 1138: Mr. Daylight’s Commission
Baiyu slowly contemplated his plan.
Firstly, it’s impossible to join Misar Count’s camp unless he wants to become a twisted monster by the Evil God.
Although it’s unclear how Misar Count got in touch with the Dark War God.
Baiyu could foresee that Misar Count’s end wouldn’t be good, and having an intact corpse would be a stroke of luck.
"Now it seems that cooperating with the Church is the best option. About the Forgotten Association, I know nothing, and I don’t know whether they’re good or evil."
Alfred seemed to be more reliable.
Moreover.
The Scar God seemed to have a good relationship with the City Lord, otherwise, the Scar God wouldn’t have helped her when the City Lord tried to seize the True Shadow authority.
Even if Canglan Star was lost, it wouldn’t affect the foundations of the Scar God.
His Church mainly concentrates on the Chaotic Star Realm, Hundred Battles Star Realm.
Only by knowing each other and reaching a cooperation would the Scar God act.
The other Divine Spirits had no desire to act.
Perhaps Baiyu was unaware of the internal situation, or these Divine Spirits were battling in unknown places. However, Baiyu felt a certain fondness for the Scar God now, and cooperating with Alfred, he could ensure he wouldn’t be duped.
At least he wouldn’t be stabbed in the back.
Nevertheless.
There was still a long time before the action, so Baiyu wasn’t in a hurry to find Alfred.
He dressed formally, checked his appearance in the mirror, and confirmed that the Geman image simulated by the Thousand Illusion Mask hadn’t changed before stepping out.
The Golden Holy District where Baiyu lived was the center area of Abaida.
Those residing in this villa neighborhood naturally had decent income.
In between his arrival.
Baiyu saw many dog walkers and people sitting on benches and lawns in the neighborhood, chatting away.
He didn’t pause, left the neighborhood, hailed a cab, and headed straight for the Adventurer Association.
Today was the membership gathering day.
The internal club of the Adventurer Association would certainly have more members present, offering Baiyu more useful information or connections.
That white-robed woman was not simpleton.
The club she developed had members with unique traits.
Ring.
The car stopped outside the Adventurer Association’s building, and in the bustling lobby, adventurers from various places and those seeking assistance filled the space. With such a population in the city, the booming business was evident.
"Situations like the Adventurer Association should be firmly within Imperial control; after all, it’s a massive intelligence source and a stable gold reserve."
Baiyu felt puzzled.
With the Adventurer Association being so bustling, daily income must be substantial, and the information about adventurer Levels is incredibly valuable.
But soon.
Baiyu thought of the Forgotten Association.
Only the Forgotten Association could rival the noble class in power.
"It seems the adventurer Association’s backing must be the Forgotten Association, a clan formed by multiple aristocratic families. Unknown what position the white-robed woman holds in the Forgotten Association."
Baiyu didn’t pause in the lobby, bypassed the reception area into a side path, and under the leadership of two receptionists, arrived at the club’s hall.
This hall was much smaller than the previous one, but over two hundred square meters.
The decorations inside were even more luxurious.
Indeed, there were more people today.
As Baiyu entered the club and glanced around, he noticed eighteen members inside.
They were engaged in conversation.
Either playing poker for entertainment or researching some items.
Baiyu sat aside, carefully observing each club member’s demeanors and planning to pick a suitable circle to join in, expanding his network.
However.
Before Baiyu acted, some others approached him to converse.
"Hello, Mr. Black Night."
One member wearing a tailcoat and a golden mask sat on the opposite sofa: "I’m Daylight."
Uh...
For a moment, Baiyu felt awkward.
The voice was evidently male, and their chosen names, Black Night and Daylight, seemed at odds.
This man’s opening line always made people feel strange... Baiyu muttered inwardly and responded with a light laugh: "Hello, Daylight."
The other placed a cup of red tea on the table, "I’m quite familiar with everything here, but haven’t seen you before, so Mr. Black Night, you must be new?"
Baiyu laughed: "Yes, I joined the club not long ago."
"Maybe I could help you familiarize yourself, coincidentally, this Saturday, we have a small team commission, would you like to come? During missions, people get to know each other quicker."
Daylight extended an invitation to Baiyu.
"Are the members here always this straightforward in inviting partners?" Baiyu laughed.
He knew.
Daylight had a mission requiring others’ assistance, hence the invitation to partners here.
"Yes, we typically just speak up about commissions directly, no other procedures, generally internal commissions, internal resolutions, asking nothing else.
With Lady Serenity as a guarantee.
It’s very safe and maintains confidentiality."
Lady Serenity was likely the white-robed woman.
Baiyu thought for a moment and said: "I need to know what type of commission it is, and what I have to do, as well as the few members to cooperate with."
"Of course."
Daylight readily agreed.
...
Half an hour later.
In a private room behind the club, Daylight, Blaze, Mirror, and Black Night sat together.
Daylight, Blaze, Mirror.
These were the names of the other three members.
Although peculiar, given these code names were obtained from the white-robed woman known as Lady Serenity, it wasn’t surprising.
The universe is vast.
Every planet has countless card games, and no one knows the setup of the card deck Lady Serenity holds.
"This commission’s reward is a Magical Item or a main ingredient of Magic Elixir below Sequence Four, including Sequence Four, or an equivalent substance.
The task’s danger difficulty.
Equivalent to killing a Sequence Four powerful one, naturally, it might be slaying a Quasi-Saint.
Specific commission details.
I’ll inform you after you agree to accept the commission for confidentiality."
Daylight looked at the other three.
Saint.
That’s reaching Sequence Three Extraordinary.
Known as a Saint.
"Hunting a Saint, just this reward isn’t enough, a slight mistake, we could all lose our lives."
At this point.
Code-named Mirror’s lady spoke up.
