Chapter 935 Employment
"What?"
The short-touch wand actually heard the earl's words clearly, but he was not sure that the lord of a city... would personally come forward to retain him.
"I hope you can settle in this city. Of course, I will provide you with accommodation, whether it is an alchemy workshop or a manor like this." Earl Nikaton said and was silent for a while before adding. "Of course I will also give you a corresponding reward."
Free housing! It's not just an ordinary house, manor or alchemy workshop!
Just hearing these two words made the short-touch wand feel like he was flying into the sky. He still lived in an ordinary collective apartment in his hometown in the Country of Steel!
The manor and the alchemy workshop may only be available to him in his dreams.
What now? The short-touch wand seems to be able to live in the big house of his dreams with just a nod. Not to mention settling here by himself, he can bring his whole family over.
but…
"What can I do for you, Earl?" The short-touch wand still had a low opinion of his own abilities, even though he was an apprentice in Nolan's Mage Tower, barely a highly qualified mage apprentice.
But there are not many such apprentices in Nolan. The term genius is too far away from him, and he is only an apprentice, not the kind of spellcaster or alchemist who can stand alone.
With such poor qualifications, what's the use of a noble man spending so much effort to recruit him?
"I heard Miss Hemina say that you are a guild member of the Scarlet Snake in the World Rift?" Earl Nikaton asked.
Hemina! How dare you betray me!
The short-touch wand glanced at Hemina sitting on the other side of the table. She didn't notice the short-touch wand's eyes at all. Instead, she was still watching the live broadcast in the magic network vision with her mouse.
"Hermina, too."
The short-touch wand could only nod his head and admit it. Although this was his identity in the game, it was also something he deserved to boast about.
"The Scarlet Snake Guild seems to be the top existence in this world. I took a look near a dungeon called Dark Mine today, and it seems to be called...their names have always been ranked second on the Hero Stone." Nika said Count Ton.
"We have been competing with other guilds for the ranking of the Hero Monument. Dark Mine has been a dungeon a long time ago. Recently, we are trying to clear Molten Core as quickly as possible."
When the short-touch wand talked about things related to the rift in the world, he no longer seemed so submissive, and his back was straightened a lot.
"This also proves that your game character is one of the strongest in the game?"
Count Nikaton asked Hemina many things related to the rift in the world before talking to the short-touch wand.
"The strongest is not considered the best, only the top."
Short Touch Wand actually wanted to proudly say that his guild was the strongest, but he didn't have the confidence.
The open beta of World Rift has been open for nearly a month, and the Hero Stone is the most direct criterion for measuring the strength of a guild.
Currently, the number one spot on the Molten Core's Hero Monument is still Fuya's Adventure Group, although the Scarlet Snake has snatched the number one spot several times.
But not long after, Fuya Adventure Group will directly refresh a new instance clearance time to suppress the Scarlet Snake.
Now, the Scarlet Snake's second position, not to mention the first place, is somewhat precarious. After all, there are quite a few powerful guilds in World Rift.
"Master Short Touch Wand, your priest is a hundred times more powerful than anyone else in our city. This is what I need."
Count Nikaton glanced at his dwarf warrior, who was only at level 18. It took him a whole morning to upgrade to two levels.
If he wanted to raise his level to the full level sixty, Count Nikaton could hardly imagine how long it would take him.
Not to mention listening to Heimina's description, the whole game really begins after reaching the full level.
Count Nikaton had a headache hearing about the hero dungeon and equipment creation.
This also made him realize how important a character who can clear the hero copy is.
"You hired me because of your king's...new law?"
The short-touch wand remembered that his heirs were discussing a strange law last night, which was also related to the rift in the world.
"No, yesterday's nightmare may still appear."
Count Nikaton said something that made the short-touch wand want to escape the city quickly.
"There will still be...then...where do those monsters come from?"
The short-touch wand can rely on its role to kill monsters in nightmares, but this does not mean that he wants to dream about those monsters every day.
"I can't tell you the details, but they will come again. Although it sounds ridiculous, if we want to defeat those monsters in the dream, we can only rely on the characters in this game."
Count Nikaton still can't believe what he experienced last night, but this is the reality.
He is a sea tribesman who knows the reason why their king Behemont is seriously ill. He also knows that the enemy he faces may be the dark elves who have occupied their holy land.
And these dark elves will not give up so easily.
"So you let them all create characters in World Rift?"
The short-touch wand glanced at the garden behind him. There was a pendant placed in the center of each long table, and the leaves of the World Tree were sealed in the pendant.
These pendants were originally treasures that Count Nikaton gave to his heirs, but now they are used by his servants and guards in order to allow them to connect to the magic network and create characters on the rift in the world.
"I have too few leaves, and they only played for half a day. Even if I stop their work and let them... level up in the world of rifts, it will probably take a long time to reach the full level."
Count Nikaton didn't seem to be quite used to the various terms in World Rift. He glanced at his Magic Network interface with the short-touch wand, and found that the character displayed on it was only level 20.
"I need stronger characters to defend against those monsters, like your priest with the short-touch wand," he said.
"I..." The short-touch wand was silent for a while in the face of Count Nikaton's invitation. He really didn't have the courage to continue fighting those monsters, let alone the possibility that he would often appear on that kind of battlefield in the future.
But he could not refuse Count Nikaton's terms.
"I'm going to think about it."
The short-touch wand's request was also agreed to by the earl. As soon as the short-touch wand ended the conversation with the earl, the earl's second daughter Cecil stood in front of him.
"What's the matter?" The short-touch wand took a step back subconsciously. There are some noble gentlemen who are easy to talk to and those who are not easy to talk to. This noble lady is undoubtedly the kind who is not easy to talk to.
"Do you... know a player named Fire Bearer?" Cecil asked.
