Chapter 319 - 192: Males Always Want to Display Their Strength
Similarly in Bornberry.
Chris, Fabian, and Grande were carrying a large batch of weapons taken from the Wild Boar People’s nest, and at this moment, they happened to arrive at the entrance of the Adventurer’s Association in Bornberry.
Seeing a griffin fly overhead, Fabian couldn’t help but show an envious expression and said to Chris beside him:
"Even if we become Black Iron Level adventurers, we’re still a long way from having our own flying mount."
"Of course! But we’ve made a good start!" Chris gestured to the Wild Boar People weapons that he could barely hold onto, and then he laughed and urged:
"Come on, let’s not talk about that now! Let’s turn in the quest first! I can’t wait to get back to Mill Town and see the shocked looks on Raine and the others."
Inside the association hall.
"May I help you with something?"
Seeing Chris and the other two carrying a large number of weapons, a sweet-looking female receptionist’s eyes brightened as she stood up from behind the counter and spoke.
"We want to submit a promotion quest; these are our quest credentials." Chris and the other two placed dozens of Wild Boar People weapons on the counter with a clatter.
This commotion immediately drew the attention of the sweet female receptionist and the surrounding adventurers.
"Wow, the three of you are amazing! The promotion quest only required one Wild Boar People weapon, yet you’ve brought so many."
To be honest, the gasp of surprise from the young and pretty female receptionist and her shocked expression greatly pleased the three.
The envious looks from the other adventurers nearby made it difficult for Chris to suppress a grin.
A few minutes later.
After submitting the quest, Chris was about to leave when he suddenly thought of something, turned around, and asked, "By the way, can you check the rank of our adventurer squad?"
Hmm?
The sweet female receptionist was a bit puzzled—’These three are clearly strong, able to obtain so many Wild Boar People weapons, yet they don’t even know their adventurer squad’s rank?’
"Of course." But she immediately responded respectfully.
"Your adventurer squad... Howling Hunter Squad, the rank is... Black Iron Level 3!" After quickly checking, the sweet female receptionist immediately looked up and said.
"What?" The three of them widened their eyes and looked at each other in disbelief.
"There must be some mistake!" Chris murmured.
"No way? The squad was registered in Mill Town in Dorne City, the current captain is Raine Farrell, and the former captain is Reya Olsen, does that seem right?"
In response to Chris’s doubt, the sweet female receptionist was not angry but quickly reported a series of information regarding the Howling Hunter Squad for Chris to confirm.
"Oh, what’s going on?"
"It’s really Black Iron Level 3!"
"And Raine has become the captain?"
Chris just wanted to check the direction of their squad after they left.
After all, he figured that Raine, Elise, and Reya weren’t standing still either.
But he didn’t expect that the squad had actually been promoted to Black Iron Level 3!
This means the squad had completed at least ten or more Black Iron Level combat quests.
What the hell have they been doing?
...
Several hours later.
Somewhere in the Lankote Snowfield.
Raine and Meredith were almost side by side, walking towards the deeper northern part of the snowfield, stepping on the several inches of thick white snow.
"Have you fought with a Transcendent before?" Raine asked with a smile, turning his head.
"Yes, when escaping from Belendaan, I fought with a Transcendent from the family, who was also a Secret Master."
"Secret Master?"
"Yes, it’s a mage who masters the four elemental magics and spiritual energy. Since their attacks involve spiritual energy and are varied and mysterious, they gradually came to be known as Secret Masters."
"I see." Raine nodded.
So it’s a mage who has mastered some spiritual spells.
Indeed, spiritual energy attacks are often invisible, and to outsiders, the Secret Master’s opponents seem to collapse without any warning.
However...
Regarding spiritual energy, a smile appeared on Raine’s face.
It seems that the situation might not be as dire as to be completely insurmountable.
I wonder how strong the ’Shield of Winter’ Olaf is?
Raine’s mind flashed to the image of a strong man from the memory he saw of the Biter Squad’s captain—
’Thick eyebrows, mustache, short hair, one-handed sword, a conqueror’s heavy armor set, and on his back, the most striking of all, an ancient-looking, gilded tower shield with a scroll pattern.’
This was the ’Shield of Winter’ Olaf.
"By the way, Meredith, what’s the biggest difference between Transcendents and us, the professionals?" Raine thought for a moment and asked.
Although he had encountered Transcendents in the battle in the Valley of Dead Water, both Mentar the Mind Flayer and Lunflier, who bore a striking resemblance to Gandalf, only appeared briefly.
Moreover, he hadn’t seen the process of their confrontation.
Furthermore, those two appeared to be magic system profession Transcendents, whereas this ’Shield of Winter’ Olaf is an Extraordinary Shield Warrior, so what would a combat professional kind of Transcendent be like?
Hearing Raine’s question, Meredith thought for a moment and said, "Transcendents, to put it simply, upon entering this stage, awaken a certain transcendent trait."
"Transcendent trait?"
"Yes, for example, when warriors step into transcendence, they generally awaken at least one transcendent trait—extraordinary physique."
"Extraordinary physique?" Raine asked.
It sounded somewhat like the Monster Skill ’Chieftain’s Physique’ that he possessed.
