The hero I support will definitely defeat the devil

Lisha thought about it. She had always been comparing herself with those legends she had never seen, the ancient heroes, the first generation of brave men, the ancient sages, and even the gods of the church. By comparing herself with them, it would naturally appear that she was not strong enough.

Of course it is not enough. Compared with Legend, the levels below Legend are not strong enough.

"Although you will fight the Demon King one day, you are not yet at that stage, so don't think too much, just follow the steps."

Youze can be sure that once Lixia completes the path she has chosen now, legendary is just a guarantee. As for the upper limit, it depends on Lixia's own performance.

"Dingling~"

The door of Dragon's Breath was pushed open, and Xilu walked in with an arms full of books.

Behind her followed an unforgettable emerald-haired girl, also dressed as a bard.

"I'm back~"

Xilu greeted everyone who was eating.

"Xilu, who is this?"

Everyone noticed the green-haired girl behind Xilu, and finally it was Lisha who asked.

"This is my predecessor in the Bards Guild. He taught me for a period of time and is my teacher."

Xilu introduced the green-haired girl to everyone.

"Hello everyone~ I'm Tiyer, a fairly qualified bard~"

The emerald-haired girl who called herself Tiyer greeted everyone with a smile.

"It turns out to be you."

Olivia didn't pay attention to the emerald-haired girl at first, but when she spoke, her familiar accent made Olivia take a second look, and it turned out to be an acquaintance.

"Haha~ I heard Xilu was here, so I came to see her."

Thiel came up to the counter.

"Olivia, I remember you seemed to have stored a lot of good wine, could you..."

"You really come here to drink."

Although Olivia said this, she didn't really care. She casually pulled out a bottle of expensive red wine from the counter and threw it to Tierre.

"Throw it gently, it would be bad if it breaks."

Thierry nimbly caught the bottle of wine and pulled out the cork with one hand.

The faint aroma of wine made Tierre nod in satisfaction. She drank directly from the bottle without any intention of tasting it.

"Ha~"

After drinking almost all the red wine in one breath, Tierre put down the bottle.

The thick bottom of the bottle collided with the solid table top with a bang.

"Teacher, do you know Ms. Olivia?"

It was only then that Xilu realized that her teacher knew Ms. Olivia.

"So we know each other."

A deep blush appeared on Tiyer's face, as if he was drunk.

"We met about 50 years ago. This guy was like that at that time. He liked to drink alcohol everywhere."

Olivia smiled as she thought back to the past.

But soon the smile disappeared.

"I remember you were at the Gold level back then, right? How come you haven't made any progress at all now?"

"What you said is not true. I am not a genius. My profession is still a bard with little combat power. It is too difficult to advance. I was lucky to be promoted to the gold level. I actually never thought about becoming a gem level."

Tiyer's expression was somewhat complicated.

She is not a genius, and it can be said that she is extremely lucky to reach the gold level.

Tierre had no idea of becoming a Gem-level or even exploring the path of legend.

"Don't tell me about going to the White Tower to seek a breakthrough. I am a peace-loving person and don't like fighting. Besides, I am only proficient in swordsmanship. I am basically terrible at everything else."

"Ha~"

Olivia said nothing more.

But she looked unconvinced.

"Your apprentice is almost catching up with you."

"If you only talk about me, aren't you stuck too?"

Tiyer's question left Olivia silent.

"I..."

Olivia wanted to say that it was her own choice, but after looking at Lisha and the others at the later stage, she decided not to speak.

"I want to stay at your place for a few days, should that be okay?"

Tiyer said with a smile.

"I'll prepare a room for you, and you can tell me the exact time."

"I don't know either, but it will take at least a month. If it's longer, it's hard to say."

When Tiyer talked about the matter, his expression became slightly serious.

"I won't ask you what you are here for, but you'd better not try to find any loopholes, otherwise if the Adventurer's Guild takes action, you will be the first adventurer to take the lead."

Olivia said casually.

She really doesn't care about these things.

As long as Tiyer didn't anger the Adventurer's Guild, Tiyer himself would probably be fine even if she didn't take action.

"I won't do that."

Tiyer is so cute when he's angry.

She always felt that there was something wrong with the look in Olivia's eyes.

"Teacher, please don't cause trouble."

When Xilu heard what Olivia said, she knew that Ms. Olivia really knew Tiyer, and they were quite close friends.

After all, people who know him wouldn’t know that the bard Tiyer, who looks cute and like a girl, is actually a guy who likes to drink everywhere and play pranks.

Chapter 382: Do you want a mission?

"Why do you say that too? Teacher, I'm so sad."

Tiyer pretended to cry, but no tears came out.

She just covered her face and stole a glance at Xilu from time to time.

"Teacher, I saw everything."

Xilu looked helpless.

When she first joined the Bards Guild and met Tierre, she had a good impression of him, especially because Tierre was a stranger to her at the time, so he acted coldly and rationally towards strangers.

But after Xilu studied with Tierre for a while, her true nature began to gradually reveal itself.

Then Xilu began to suffer.

She had to run around cleaning up the mess for her teacher, and even went to his/her home to apologize in person.

But Thiel himself doesn't care about these.

"By the way, I see you guys seem to be an adventuring team, right?"

Tierre hurriedly changed the subject, causing Lisha and the others to show a subtle expression.

"Yes, we are a group of adventurers."

Lisha said as she pointed at herself and several other teammates.

"One is at the Gold level, and the others are at the peak of the Silver level. That's enough."

Tiyer thought for a moment and continued.

"I have a task here, do you want to do it?"

"What's the content? How difficult is it?"

Lisha asked Tiel almost the next second.

"I need you to go to a ruin on the third floor of the White Tower to get a special plant."

Tierre first briefly outlined the objectives of the mission.

"There is a gold-level monster there. It is very powerful, and it has several silver-level monsters under its command. An ordinary adventure team can't deal with it and its minions. But I think you can."

"How much is the reward?"

Lisha continued to ask.

Thiel gave a number.

many!

Even Ilsa was startled.

This amount of reward can almost be said to be the upper limit of the fifth-level commission task. If it is higher, the Adventurer's Guild will not even publish it, but instead investigate the publisher of the commission to see if the other party has any conspiracy.

This kind of thing has happened before. In the early days when the rules of the Adventurer's Guild were not perfect, there were cases where nobles lured adventurers in by offering rewards far exceeding the level of the mission and killed them for blood sacrifices, and then lied to the Adventurer's Guild, saying that the adventurers were killed by accident.

Now there is no such thing, one reason is that the Adventurer's Guild's review is more strict and careful, and two is that the adventurers have become smarter.

Don't always think that good things will fall from the sky and happen to you.

This is a common saying among adventurers.

"Are you anxious, Tiyer?"

Lisha asked in confusion.

Generally speaking, task publishers will only offer such high rewards when they are in a hurry. Otherwise, most task publishers who are not in a hurry will only offer a little more than the normal amount.

"Not in a hurry, but I think this mission is worth the price, at least for your adventuring team."

Tiyer had no intention of hiding anything.

"The monster in that ruin is an immobile demon tree. Although it cannot move, its branches can extend to very far places, and the same is true for its roots. Moreover, it can use its roots to launch surprise attacks from underground. Ordinary adventurers cannot defend themselves at all."

"Those silver-rank subordinates I mentioned are actually monsters controlled by the magic tree. All the monsters that accidentally wandered near the magic tree were controlled by the magic tree. The method of control is to rely on its own seeds. As long as the seeds are planted in the monster's body, they will take root and sprout and then control the opponent's body."

"This is also the way the magic tree reproduces. These puppet-like controlled monsters will leave the ruins and head to a more distant place under the control of the magic tree. Once a suitable location is found, the controlled monsters will dig a hole and bury themselves in the soil. Then, the magic tree seedlings that have already taken root will use the controlled monsters as nutrients to grow into a new magic tree, and then continue to reproduce in the same way as their mother tree."

Tiel finished explaining the characteristics of the monster called the Demon Tree in one breath.

"This magic tree is extremely restraining to many adventurers, especially since it is a tree and is not afraid of fire at all. This means that the magic tree has basically no weaknesses except that it cannot move."

"Now you understand the difficulty of this task?"

"Okay, I see. This mission is very dangerous."

Lisha nodded, indicating that she understood this.

Just like Tier said, this magic tree should be very powerful, and it is probably invincible in the gold level.

Of course, except Lisha.

But Lisha was also very clear that if she was just an ordinary gold-rank monster, this mission would be very difficult. But Lisha was strong enough to fight against gem-rank monsters, so the most dangerous ones should be the team members who cooperated with Lisha to eliminate the controlled silver-rank monsters.

But Lisha also knew that they would not retreat because she was still there, so they did not retreat.

"What do you think?"

Lisha did not make a final decision, but asked other members for their opinions.

"I think it's good."

Angela was the first to raise her hand in agreement.

She didn't care about it, as long as there was a battle and monsters could be defeated, that was enough.
