Quick Transmigration: Goddess Of My Imagination
Chapter 142: Division of Tasks
Chapter 142: Division of Tasks
Martin, Franky, and Anika could easily convince Aayan by proving their strength level. The three of them took turns showing their dark green aura of magical energy.
"Mr. Nalyd, if you may." Martin gave a polite gesture to someone he thought had the most potent power.
Dylan didn't answer, he just stretched out his hand, and a dark blue energy aura appeared on his palm. It was clear this combined team of the two guild parties was enough to accept this quest with just this.
"How about it, Mr. Aayan? We came on your terms and even a little higher than that. Three Masters, one Spirit, and one Spirit Beast. Now please explain to us what happened in the previous failure, and regarding the flower..." Martin stretched his hands a little, now it was their turn to know more.
"What? Spirit Beast? The big tiger outside is a Spirit Beast? Contracted beast? Who is the master of that winged tiger?" Aayan did not immediately explain. He was surprised about the big tiger on guard right outside the door.
He only considered the tiger as an ordinary oversized beast. Unexpectedly the tiger was a Spirit Beast with intelligence.
"The master of the winged white tiger outside is Aisyle, a girl in a white robe with a hint of blue there." Martin pointed at Elysia, then Aayan nodded lightly.
"Okay, this time I'm sure with this team. You should be able to successfully complete this quest." Ayan sighed and then leaned back in his chair.
"Ashen Fairymoss is a rare flower I accidentally found in an underground cave about 200 kilometers southeast of this village, 100 meters underground maybe. It was a photo I took in a hurry before fleeing from there as fast as I could."
"The flower that has the greatest possibility of making my research successful is always guarded by four monsters like a stone hedgehog. At first, I didn't know the strength of the four monsters, but after the failure of the second team, I came to know it was four stone hedgehogs at the Master level."
After speaking until there, Aayan fell silent and did not continue his explanation... Even though the adventurers had been waiting for a while. Impatient, Franky immediately broke the silence.
"It would be better if you marked the entry point to the underground cave on the map, it would be easier for us. Then, what happened to the two teams that failed this mission?"
"Okay, map, yes. Wait a moment, here it is." Aayan took out the Human Continent map paper, circled a place, and then put it on the table.
"You haven't answered my second question, Mr. Aayan. Can we know about the fate of the two teams that failed? Why did they fail? We need that information for anticipatory reference." Somehow Franky was a bit annoyed. This man and also their client, mostly only responded to the first question.
"Sigh... They failed because they failed, not strong enough to beat those four stone hedgehogs." Aayan shook his head in disappointment and also helplessness.
"Then?" Franky frowned.
"Then, well, it's no longer a secret, and that's why my quest was transferred to the big city at my request. The first team was a party of eight people. If I'm not mistaken the name of their guild party was Rainroses. Six adventurers at Intermediate level and two still at Beginner level, they were all completely wiped out, no one survived, perhaps."
"After more than one month without news, I made reports to the Guild, and that party declared missing or dead. Well, I believe it was the latter option. Last week, the second team consisting of six adventurers at Advanced level and one investigator at the Advanced level, came to take over this quest."
"However, only three young men and the guild investigator returned safely, but they are injured and empty-handed. Due to the importance of this quest to me, I increased the quest's reward from 400 to 800 gold coins."
"The Guild branch in Larnwick City has not been able to dispatch their elite team because they are short on people ready to dispatch, as most of them are out of town. After that, my quest could easily be delegated to the nearest major city."
Aayan finished explaining what had happened, not only to the two teams that had failed. It was also the unresponsive action of the branch guild in Larnwick City simply because of the lack of people capable of completing this mission.
"What? Hasn't the guild dispatched their elite or extermination team? Two months, ah, shit! All of the elite guild teams in that town are on duty outside the city? The fallen adventurers haven't had their revenge yet! Damn!" Franky started cursing irritably. He hated the coincidence of those unlucky.
It was the tragedy and the party's massacre, and the fallen adventurers should be buried with respect.
"Calm yourself down, Franky. That was last week's info, not too long ago. However, the Guild in our city didn't even get any additional information from this quest. The Guild in Larnwick City didn't list the details of this quest in the proper way." Martin tapped the shoulder of his furious comrade.
Franky took a deep breath and let it out again. His anger didn't bring him anywhere. They came to the location, so they might as well clean up the mess.
"We have to investigate that. The branch guild in Larnwick City is not working professionally. I believe something is wrong there." Anika spoke with a slightly pale face. She was afraid of tragedy.
"Well, we'll confirm that later, after this. Is that all you know, Mr. Aayan?" Martin nodded his head to Anika then to Aayan.
"Yes, that's all. The rest is depending on your ability to complete this quest. Bring this photo and map, good luck!" Aayan nodded in confirmation.
"Alright, thanks for your additional information, it will help us complete this quest faster. Then, we excuse ourselves first." Martin gave a signal for the other members. It was time for them to go.
"Yeah, it's so sunny this afternoon, maybe we'll be back before evening." Franky stretched his hands, and then he walked out of the hut.
All of them came out of the hut, their business here was over, and it was time for them to head to the location of that rare flower.
Without further ado or lingering any longer, they flew away. The joint party left Aayan after he escorted them with a wave of his hand.
The man with pale white skin let out a soft breath and put on his special glasses, then he returned to his hut. Many tasks awaited him, and he wished this third team could genuinely succeed.
After flying for a while to the southeast, with the help of Dylan's acceleration magic, they finally arrived at a place marked on the map.
A large cave mouth camouflaged by bushes and rocks near the cliff was seen below them, an entrance to the underground area.
Everyone landed close to the cave's mouth in turn. But, within a safe distance because there was a strategy that needed to be discussed.
"We have arrived at our destination, at a nearby location on the marked map, this is the only cave we found. So, it must be the entrance to the underground. Before entering there, we must discuss our formation and position in the battle." Martin put on a solemn expression and gathered everyone. They were already near their battlefield.
"Martin can serve as agro for four stone hedgehogs, in full defense mode. Then, I will be tasked with lightening the burden on him as a close-range attacker, and Anika will serve as an attacker and support at mid-range. As usual, that's the role and formation of the three of us." Franky immediately explained the moment he got eye contact from Martin.
"We want you, Mr. Nalyd, to strike with me to attack at close range. We have to slaughter the four stone hedgehogs, the results can be divided equally. Then, the tiger and the two girls took part to immediately take the rare flower, err, ashes flower fairy something. How does that sound?" Franky as his party strategist, confidently proposed.
"That's easy, isn't it, father? Yes, that's the answer. We'll do that." Sylvia represented her silent father. He just was looking deep into the cave to check something.
"Um, this quest is to take the rare flower named Ashen Fairymoss, right? Why do we need to kill the stone hedgehogs? Isn't it great if we distract them, take the flower, then run away? That way, we won't spend much energy and effort." Elysia asked cluelessly.
"Err... That sounds like an excellent plan, Aisyle. We would definitely do it if we were the first team. However, for the adventurers who have fallen there, we will give them justice." Anika explained warmly. She smiled softly at this innocent young girl.
"Yeah, you're still young, and you don't know much about the Guild yet. It's only natural not to know about it. If tragedy strikes a guild party, they will be given justice and respectful burial. It's just that, the branch guild in Larnwick City is a bit problematic and again, their special team is out of town on assignment." Martin also added some information.
