Chapter 560 Emergency Guarding Mission
Abel walked back to his accommodation. He had only been living there for 10 days, and now he was going to leave. He didn’t have much stuff to pack up, only putting his gear in the cupboard and changing his robe.In regards to that missing light sword, he believed Drillmaster Cooper would take care of it. He was right, Drillmaster Cooper had kept it as a collectible.
Abel connected his power of will with his military card, and soon he got a reply,
“K3516, you have pa.s.sed your training. Corresponding features are now available in your military from your military card.
You have received 5 war glory. Please have a look.
Your battle of the orcs mission will officially begin today. It will last for 3 years. If your war glory exceeds 200, you can directly submit an auto mission complete.
Your accommodations are marked on the map. Please have a look.
Sub occupation discovered: you can accept weapon fixing missions. Since your sub-occupation is a grand master, you can get double the war glory every time you complete a weapon fixing mission.”
A string of messages appeared on Abel’s military card. This military card was very similar to his magic tower ident.i.ty card. There was even the ability to contact other people’s military cards, but of course, this was only effective in Miracle City.
Those weapon fixing missions caught his attention. Miracle City knew his ident.i.ty very well. It’s just that it looked a little stingy to only pay a grandmaster double amounts of war glory to fix your weapon.
Afterward, Abel opened the map and looked at the marking. The wizard camp is in the center of Miracle City; it was very closed to that giant wall at the back.
As he stepped into the Wizard area, he noticed most of the wizards had their ident.i.ty hidden. A lot of them had respected that tradition.
Almost all the normal people there were servants. This made sense. Most of the wizards there had just become official wizards; their life would be a mess if they didn’t have a servant.
Abel had never seen so many official wizards gathering in one spot other than Liante City. Abel looked forward. As a rank 9 wizard, he could easily tell that most of those wizards were rank 6, there were barely any rank 7 wizards.
Abel had seen around 12 official wizards along the way to his accommodation.
He finally saw his accommodation within a line of houses in a courtyard. It was the best batch of houses he saw along the way here. It was a lot bigger, and it had a little garden which he could rest in.
When Abel was about to open the gate with his military card, a fresh sounding voice emerged from behind, “Are you new?”
Abel quickly stopped and bowed, “Yes, I am k3516. I’ve just pa.s.sed the training exam!”
“I am k3305. I’m basically an old man here. Sorry to bother you, I’m just interested because normally newbies will be sent to live in those houses on the edge. We will all need to use war glory to exchange a place here!” Although k3305 was wearing a mask, he sounded very friendly from his voice.
“Oh, I didn’t know that. My military card just says this is my house!” Said Abel shrugging his shoulders.
“You are lucky. Maybe the Miracle Spirit is sick today!” K3305 mumbled to himself. He then followed, “I live next door. If you have any questions, you can just come and find me!”
K3305, how many wizards are in the camp?” Abel asked straight away since he was so interested.
“Every newbie wants to know this. Normally around 100 wizards. Intermediate wizards don’t live here. They live there!” Said k3305 pointing at that ma.s.sive wall reaching toward the cloud.
“But we only have around 10 wizards this season. How come there are 100 wizards in this 3 years battle of the orcs mission?” Abel asked in confusion.
“Because most of us want war glory to exchange training resources. But some wizards just like to fight, and some like to hunt spiritual beasts at Mt Budapest, so they set this place as their base. Most of the wizards you see will be the ones doing the battle of the orcs mission. The other ones will rarely walk around the camp. You can only see them in the mission hall!” K3305 explained.
At that moment, Abel and k3305’s military card began to ring.
“To every wizard in Miracle City: this is an emergency defense mission. I repeat, this is an emergency defense mission; please come to the Miracle Wall immediately. Every wizard who got this message will need to come!” Miracle Spirit’s robotic voice emerged from their military card.
“My G.o.d, why am I so unlucky. I’m just starting to rest!”k3305 complained and then he turned back to Abel, “there is a short distance teleportation circle in our houses. You can directly reach the Miracle Wall through it. Since it’s your first mission, just follow me!”
“Ok, thank you so much!” Abel really liked how friendly k3305 was. Maybe they could be good friends.
Just from his voice, Abel could tell k3305 was not a weak wizard–especially when he could afford a place like this.
Abel also began to question his accommodation. Maybe the Miracle City had given it to him because he was a Grandmaster Blacksmith, or maybe it was trying to make up for the fact that Layard had attacked him. Still, Abel could only guess.
Seeing k3305 open the gate and run inside, Abel also did the same as he placed his military card on the magic circle of the gate.
“Welcome k3516, house a09 is now unlocked for you. Your contract to this house is 3 years!” The robotic voice emerged from his military card again as the gate swung open.
Abel did have time to closely examine it as he ran in the courtyard. He looked around as he kept moving towards the house.
The house was around 100 square meters. Since he was short of time, he only briefly looked at it. There was a living room, an office, a bedroom, and a training room. The short distance teleportation circle was in the office.
Abel quickly installed 4 intermediate gems onto it and used his power of will to select the Miracle Wall. Soon he vanished from the office in a flash of white light.
Before Abel could even see what was around him clearly, he heard k3305 again, “K3516, you are quick. I thought you would take longer!”
However, Abel did not care what k3305 was saying. He was stunned by the scenery in front of him.
He was standing on a platform with a protective s.h.i.+eld. There were some teleportation circles on the platform. This place was the frontier attack of Miracle City.
Below the platform was the Miracle Wall, which was more like an engineering miracle. It was around 50 meters thick, 3000 meters wide. On both sides was the main peak of Mt Budapest.
The data said that the orcs had used hundreds of years to dig through Mt Budapest, and used this pa.s.sage to rob wealth from the human.
The humans had wasted tens of years and killed countless orcs to win this mountain back. That was how we ended up with miracle wall. It was the barrier between the human and orcs territory. From then on, only a small number of orcs elite squad would risk their lives through Mt Budapest to the human world. No huge troops of orcs had come through ever since.
There were also many powerful spiritual beasts in Mt Budapest. Under these conditions, only 10% of them could survive.
Abel looked around. There were also many teleportation circles on the 3000 meters wide Miracle Wall. Large amounts of knights were stepped out of it, filling up the wall.
Wizards also continued to come out of that teleportation circle he just came out of. Those wizards looked calm as they waited for their instructions.
At the moment, the knights had already divided themselves into 5 teams and stood in front of the wall with their s.h.i.+elds and spears. Abel felt like maybe the wizards were too lazy. The knights were already ready to fight, but the wizards were still looking around.
