Chapter 37: Additional Rewards for Quests

  "Can you take me to meet your commander, General Yueruo? Although the task is difficult, Lin Chen will not give up. After all, the skill book "Internal Energy Protection" is something that Lin Chen must obtain, and Long Blade Wing will definitely be a powerful tool in the future. So, for these reasons, Lin Chen will not give up."

  "Alright, I'll introduce you," after a moment of silence, the centurion nodded in agreement and took Lin Chen out, directly to the door of the chiliarch's room, knocked on the door, and only entered after getting a response from inside.

  "Are you that top-notch pharmacist? You're really accomplished at a young age...", said the Thousand Husband, putting down the documents in his hand and standing up to smile at Lin Chen as he walked in. A top-notch pharmacist, no matter where they are, this identity will never feel humble.

  "There, the late-stage strength of Qian Fuzhang, a great sword master, is truly admirable." Looking at this level 68 Qian Fuzhang's strength, Lin Chen couldn't help but feel secretly shocked and also smiled as he said. At this time, the task required him to ask for help from others, so Lin Chen had no choice but to actively improve their relationship a bit in order to get "Internal Energy Shield" and Dragon Blade Wing.

  "Haha, you're too modest...", as the saying goes, a thousand may wear out, but flattery never does. Regardless of whether Lin Chen's words were sincere or not, at least he was an excellent pharmacist. An excellent pharmacist's praise made Qian Fuzhang extremely happy. "As an excellent pharmacist, you are much better than this guy. After all, our Gale Mercenary Group only has two excellent pharmacists, but there are thirteen thousand-man commanders like me, and eight of them are even Sky-level swordsmen."

  When Lin Chen heard the words of the thousand-year-old, he was secretly shocked. Thirteen thousand-year-olds actually had eight eighth-level strongmen in the Sky Level? Indeed, it's no wonder that one of the four major mercenary groups has eight eighth-level strongmen.

  Although he was shocked in his heart, Lin Chen quickly understood that the Thousand Husband's words were not just a show of humility on the surface, but actually intended to showcase the strength of the Gale Mercenary Group. After all, the Gale Mercenary Group only had two top-notch alchemists, which showed how much in demand they were.

  "Right, actually I came today with a request...". Before Qian Fuzhang could say anything about joining, Lin Chen took the initiative to speak up. Otherwise, if he waited for Qian Fuzhang to ask him to join and then spoke, it would become a negotiation of terms. If the other party really agreed, wouldn't that mean he would be binding himself to the Difei Mercenary Corps?

  "Oh? What conditions? Go ahead and say...". Seeing Lin Chen speak up first, Qian Fu Zhang was taken aback, but he also reacted quickly, patting his chest with a very bold tone. This appearance actually made the nearby Bai Fu Zhang's face turn red, because just now he himself was in this state, but couldn't achieve what Lin Chen said.

  "I have a friend who is locked up in your mercenary group, he's a captain. Recently, because of some mistakes in commanding during the mission to kill the Storm Lion King, he was caught by you, Commander." Lin Chen said slowly, looking seriously at the commander's face.

  It turned out that Lin Chen was talking about this matter, the Qianfu Zhang's heroic appearance stiffened for a moment, and then he didn't know what he thought of, let out a low sigh, saying: "Actually, as for that matter, how could I not know if it was his fault? If I were in his position at that time, I would have done the same thing too. Several perfect-level equipment were handed over to headquarters, and our department's captain praised us."

  "Ah!?", Hearing Qianfu Zhang's words, Baifu Zhang was shocked and opened his eyes wide. Even if Lin Chen is a top-notch pharmacist with great face, it shouldn't be so easy for him to change his decision, right?

  Similarly, when Lin Chen heard the words of this chiliarch, he was also delighted and did not expect that this chiliarch would so easily acknowledge that the captain was right.

  But then, Lin Chen's heart shook again. No, although this task has been very troublesome so far, from the archer to the hundred-man commander, and then from the hundred-man commander to the thousand-man commander, it was just a bit of trouble. A five-star mission shouldn't be completed that easily.

  As expected, just as Lin Chen's heart was secretly sinking, the Thousand Husband continued to speak: "Although my nephew's death was due to his command, I am also heartbroken. However, as the Thousand Husband of the Gale Mercenary Group, I naturally know that this matter is not his fault, it's just fate."

  "Why did you catch him again?" Hearing this, Qianfu Chang's words and actual actions were contradictory, Lin Chen couldn't help but ask.

  "Ah...", he let out a low sigh, and only then did Qian Fuzhang say: "Actually, I never really thought of killing that captain to vent my anger. It's just that my sister found out about the news of her son's miserable death, and every day she's been disheartened and depressed, looking like she won't be able to hold on for a few more days before leaving this world. So I had no choice but to do this, hoping that it would make my sister a little happier."

  "...", it turned out that the Thousand Husband had never thought of killing the captain, but just to make his sister recover. Upon hearing this, Lin Chen somewhat understood how to complete this task.

  As expected, at this moment, the task prompt rang out again: "Ding, triggered task resentment sequel, required to rescue the sister of Qianfeng Mercenary Group's Thousand Husband, task completion, reward experience 9000, reward skill book 'Inner Strength Protection'".

  Upon hearing the task, Lin Chen couldn't help but let out a sigh. Although it had triggered subsequent events and doubled the experience points reward, this task was not going to be easy after all.

  No wonder it's a five-star mission, it's indeed not easy to complete. That's right, I'm an apothecary, almost all negative states and injuries can be eliminated, but even the best medicine in the world can't cure a person's heart disease.

  How many couples, because the other half died, can no longer hold on, and die in sorrow, making all relatives and friends can only painfully watch him wither away day by day. This kind of thing is absolutely not easy to deal with, no wonder the impatient Qian Fuzhang would catch that captain.

  "Your sister's situation, or should I go take a look?" Since the task was like this, even if it was difficult to handle, Lin Chen had to go and deal with it. With his back turned, he asked Qian Fuzhang.

  "Go ahead and try then...", although Lin Chen was a top-notch pharmacist, this matter wasn't something that could be accomplished just because one had the ability, so the Thousand Husband General had a doubtful attitude towards Lin Chen.

  It's only been a week, and his own sister has lost a lot of weight. At this time, Qianfu Chang is also treating a dead horse as if it were alive. There's no other way but to let Lin Chen try, hoping he'll take the initiative to speak up and take responsibility for this matter, maybe a miracle will happen.

  "Alright, let's go. By the way, tell me about your sister's family situation and all that, the more detailed the better...", nodded Lin Chen to Qian Fuzhang, then the three of them left with Yatse, the earth dragon, while Qian Fuzhang also told Lin Chen about his own sister's family situation.
