Chapter 80 Reinforcements
In the early morning, the gloomy sky was drizzling, and the light mist splashed on Camus' face. Camus opened his red and blue eyes and stretched himself refreshed.
"Wow, what a good nightmare. Knowing that I was short of souls, you came all the way to deliver souls. I am so touched."
"Woo..."
Suddenly, there was a humming sound outside the window. Camus looked back and saw more than a dozen airships flying over the sky. The airships were still hung with the national emblem of the Republic of Draf. They seemed to be reinforcements for the army.
"Reinforcements? Well, this is good news."
Camus rubbed his eyes, turned over and climbed up. After washing and brushing his teeth, he put on his clothes and walked towards the Adventurer's Guild.
Golden Oak Street
Some citizens appeared on the wet bluestone road, and some shops on both sides of the road were also opened. A steam bus appeared in Camus' eyes, and a group of police were posting reward notices.
Camus raised his eyebrows, "Yes, the turmoil did not involve this side. It seems that the situation is very good. This is a good thing."
"Get out of the way, get out of the way. If you see the people in the portrait, please report to the police station. If it is true, you will be rewarded with 20 gold coins."
Listening to the police's notice, Camus looked at the portraits on the paper, remembered their abilities and sequences, squeezed out of the crowd and was about to leave. Just after a few steps, Camus heard someone calling him.
"Mr. Elf, Mr. Elf, wait a minute."
Camus was stunned. It seemed that there were no elves around except himself, right? After looking at this person, Camus suddenly realized.
"Dear policeman, do you have something to do with me?"
The person in front of him was Chief Teach, who had met him once before. He looked at him excitedly.
"Dear sir, we need your help. The criminals in the city are very active at present. You are short of manpower, so..."
Camus frowned, "Mr. Teach, I don't think a group of thugs and criminals need our help. If you have any difficulties, you can go to the Adventurer's Guild to post a task, or find the branch director, he can help you."
Teach had a bitter face when he heard it, "Mr. Moon Elf, the branch president of the Adventurer's Guild and the Lord of Light Festival of the Church of the Sun died in battle yesterday, and a large number of those thugs ran away. The calm you saw is only superficial. The whole city of Kadic is in panic, and no one is in charge of the overall situation. Ordinary criminals are okay, but some extraordinary criminals have also emerged, and we have no way to deal with it."
Camus's face sank when he heard it. Even the branch president died in battle? The matter is indeed a bit serious, but does it have anything to do with him?
"Sorry, I can't help you. You should find someone else. Maybe you can find those nobles. I believe they don't lack extraordinary people."
Teach was stunned. Aren't these people messengers of justice? How could they refuse?
"But..."
Camus shook his hand, "I think the new president will arrive in Caldecott soon. You can find him then. We don't have time, and it will be the same in the future. These things have nothing to do with us."
Teach opened his mouth wide when he heard it. If they didn't help, it would be useless even if he had more people. The extraordinary people were not something that ordinary people could arrest.
"Sir... please help us."
Camus sneered at him, "I help you, who will help us? I tell you, we must not only be on guard against mutations at all times, but also find a way to get the potion behind. The era of exchanging lives for money is over. Our captain died in the battle. I will not let my team members take risks again. We don't owe anyone, and we have no obligation to help anyone. Maybe you can ask the army for help. I think they can spare some manpower." After saying that, Camus turned and left, not giving Teach a chance to speak.
"Sir..."
Teach watched Camus leave, raised his hand, and still didn't say a word. After several minutes, he walked back dejectedly.
"Chief, when will they go out?"
Teach shook his head, "Let's go find those politicians, they are unwilling to help."
The policewoman was stunned, "How is it possible? The Adventurer's Guild can't just ignore it, did you hear it wrong, Captain?"
"Well, go find Councilman Brody, he is the one who least wants the chaos in Caldecott City, unless he doesn't want to be the mayor."
Camus looked at the lifeless Adventurer's Guild in front of him, and also saw the wounded coming in and out of it. After yesterday's battle, even if they won, it was a miserable victory. The Adventurer's Guild's extraordinary people were reduced by at least half, and even the president who had just taken office a few days ago died in the battle.
"Good morning, Camus."
Camus turned around and saw Susie holding a piece of bread in her hand, holding a pile of books in her arms, looking at her with a smile.
"Good morning, Susie, you look in good spirits."
"Well, I killed a fat sheep yesterday, and I can't catch up with this price even if I do ten tasks."
Camus' eyes flashed, and he silently mourned for Gao Ruis. It seems that the price he paid was indeed not small.
"Camus, 100 gold coins. He paid 100 gold coins for making the potion. These swindlers are really rich."
Camus' mouth twitched, "Congratulations, it turns out that doing the mission is a dead end. We have to think of other ways out. Let's go up."
The two went upstairs and smelled the aroma of coffee from a distance. When they opened the door, they saw Kaxiu sleeping on the sofa. There was a cup of steaming coffee on the table. Akali was doing difficult yoga. As for Kaska, he should be learning the knowledge for promotion in the ninth district.
"Hi, good morning, it's great to see you, although the weather doesn't match my mood."
"Good morning, Captain Camus"
Ka Xiu immediately got up when he heard Camus' voice and rushed to Camus.
"What happened last night?"
"Well... something big happened in the underground black market. I peeped out where there are Masters of Sequence Thirteen Stage Three Changes and people from the Rose Sect."
"Stage 3? Rose Sect? Oh... I am really lucky, thank you Camus."
Susie looked around and said, "Where's Casca? Isn't he here?"
Camus shrugged, "He went to learn promotion knowledge. Maybe the next time we see him, he will be the ammunition expert in stage two."
"Oh, taboo goddess, you are so enviable. Is what you said yesterday true?"
"Of course, I will help you with the potion."
"How's your potion going, you two?"
Susie's rabbit ears immediately stood up when she heard this, "My potion is ready. I plan to practice my close combat skills to an advanced level first, and then I will advance to the next level after understanding the mysteries of Qi."
Akali wiped the sweat from her head and stood up, "Captain, I have learned all the knowledge about advancement, but I don't have enough money to buy potions."
"It's okay. I'll go to the Bounty Department to collect the bounty later. Let's discuss what to do in the future today. Do you have any good suggestions?"
Susie stretched her body and said, "You are the captain, so tell me."
Seeing several people looking at him, Camus rubbed his chin and thought for a while, then slowly raised his head.
"You basically have the Phase 2 potions. As for the Phase 3 potions, I can help you. What I mean is that we will no longer do quests. We will break away from the Adventurer's Guild and live for ourselves."
"this……"
Everyone was stunned when they heard the news, "That's good, that's good, but what about the Rose Investigation Team?"
Camus nodded, "Who said that after leaving the Adventurer's Guild, we are no longer the Rose Investigation Team? I can guarantee that I can help you find the follow-up formula, trust me.
"The purpose of our previous missions was to make money to buy potions, but as you know, you can't buy stage three potions with money. Continuing to do missions will be meaningless."
"So...what do you think?"
