Chapter 726: Chapter 726: Investigation Task
 

The entire squad was in agreement.

Moreover, Han Dong learned the ultimate goal of the Big Expedition from Mr. Black White, which is “Killing the Old King”.

Not to kill all the Old Kings, but one whose information has been grasped and whose rank is not high in itself…

In other words, the Big Expedition is not a free campaign completely at war with the demons outside the city but a major and significant expeditionary campaign.

The difficulty is indeed great, and it is the first time humans need to leave the main city for a long time.

But for Han Dong, not to mention preserving the entire Knight Regiment, it is absolutely no problem for him to secure his squad members when danger comes by using the “Movable Deed”.

...

Moreover, in the long run.

Abe, Dumps, Mia, and Wendy are among the best new knights in recent years. If they could have such experience at the beginning of their knight career, they will definitely grow into the core pillars of humanity in the future.

Seeing that the opinions of the entire squad were unified, Han Dong immediately gave some information that could eliminate some concerns about the Big Expedition and focus on the audit:

“By participating in this manner as a small team, we can take care of each other to some degree.

Even if some unpredictable dangers do indeed occur, causing the expeditionary force to be severely disrupted, I have a “place” that can accommodate everyone and provide absolute safe shelter.

I have some unspeakable secrets outside the city, and when I have time, I will take you guys out to see.”

Dumps, who had been to the Scarlet Manor, naturally understood what Han Dong’s so-called “place” was.

Right at this moment, Mia, feeling the sense of urgency, immediately clung to Han Dong’s arm, “Nicholas… I only have 5 base points. Is there any way to quickly earn points with me?

If I can’t reach the “60” point baseline within two months, I won’t be able to march with everyone.”

Securing points will inevitably not be simple.

Mia has the least base points, and it is the correct choice to catch Han Dong as the first time.

“Mia, didn’t you join the Herb Association in the Holy City? Starting from personal expertise, you might earn quite a lot of points.”

But Mia was very unwilling on her face. “It’s not reliable… It’s impossible to get a lot of points by grinding herbs.

Nicholas, why don’t you take us a few and complete a few special high-level tasks?

We have just invested in talent points and have new abilities, haven’t we? Before the arrival of the Big Expedition, we should be better able to work together in advance through real combat, don’t you think?”

What Mia said is right.

Because of the Breaking the Breed and a new talent system, the fighting style of the buddies has also changed… it is very necessary to exercise beforehand.

However, Captain Curran over there is still calling him to take Sister Diana to complete some tasks of the Night Watch.

Now only have to stagger the process.

Han Dong nodded, “Okay… We will head to the Adventurer’s Guild in a while, to see if there are any special reward tasks.”

At this time, Dumps pushed the frame of his glasses and gave a different opinion, “Although there are some high-level tasks in the ‘reward tasks’, there are very few.

The truly high-level tasks are basically the ‘investigation tasks’ that need to go out of the city… Of course, now that Captain Roland has issued the relevant regulations of ‘the Eve of the Expedition’.

Many knights who want to participate in the expeditionary army should also be rushing to the Knight Headquarters.”

“Investigation task… Yeah that’s true! Let us also hurry up.”

Han Dong really forgot about this, hearing Dumps mention it, the squad immediately ended the meeting and headed towards the city surface… when leaving the “Eye of Medusa” bar, the knights who were originally wandering in the underground city trying to enjoy and relax were more than half less.

The entire Holy City has fully entered the pre-war preparation state after the speech by the great knight Roland.

‘Investigation task’

One of the main responsibilities of a Formal Knight.

According to the requirements set by the council, a qualification review is conducted for knights every year.

This includes the completion status of investigative missions.

For those knights who have not participated in a single investigative mission, the council will intervene personally, and in most cases, they will be stripped of their knight status.

The investigative missions themselves usually require knights to venture out of the city in squads, to conduct a “Danger Elimination” in a particular region around the Holy City (less than 100km).

It’s not about randomly assigning a large area for the knights to investigate.

The potential dangers in the investigation area have precise premises.

They are often detected in advance by special writers from the Writer’s Association through their “Dream Forecasts”, which requisition a personal investigation from a knight squad.

It can’t be guaranteed for 100%, but at least 60% of the areas given by the writers contain potential dangers.

It might be the birth of a new demon,

Or the opening of a demon teleportation gate linking to a distant place,

Or a huge gathering of heretics in the area, trying to summon the arrival of demons, and so on.

Foreknowledge, investigation, elimination in advance.

This is one of the main reasons why the Holy City remains stable year-round. And it’s also why writers hold such a high status within the Holy City.

That’s why even such a great prophet as Mr. Black White couldn’t take any targeted measures without concrete evidence when it came to the matter of “Chairman of the Writer’s Association”.

Because this person’s status is extremely high, hard to shake.

Furthermore.

As “investigative missions” involve potential threats from outside the city, the writers can only glimpse a part of the danger, and the real risk is often difficult to assess.

Once the danger is successfully eliminated, the knight squad will receive a bonus far higher than that of the inner city missions.

Of course, the above-mentioned “risk” is only limited to the common knights of the city.

For lords like Han Dong, who also owns a manor outside the city… Investigative missions might be easier than the bounty missions inside the city.

When Han Dong and his team arrived at the Knight’s Headquarters in an expensive steam carriage, as expected, there was already a long queue outside the gate, bearing the emblem of a “Double Sword and White Horse”.

The knights who are dedicated to the cause of human freedom can’t wait to earn points, pass the first round of qualifications, and throw themselves into the epic “Great Expedition”.

They cut off the heads of demons with their sword blades, and disperse the whispers of the demons with the courage in their hearts.

Just from this scene, it is clear that the Holy City’s cultivation of knights and imbuing the spirit of knighthood are indeed very successful.

However, this is not very friendly for Han Dong and his team, who arrived a bit later. Seeing such a queue for the mission intake, it’s estimated that there might not be many investigative missions left when it’s their turn.

“Speaking of which, shouldn’t the Holy City authorities have anticipated this situation of a ‘large-scale mission intake’? Why don’t they set up some additional intake points?”

Just as Han Dong asked this question.

The Knight’s Headquarters’ subsidiary building, which was originally used for office work, suddenly opened its ground floor doors.

The nearby broadcasts were also turned on simultaneously.

“For the brave knights who are actively participating in the Great Expedition, after consideration and approval by the council, in addition to the regular ‘Investigative Missions’, the Knight’s Headquarters will also offer ‘Long-Range Investigative Missions’.

These refer to investigative missions that are more than 100 kilometers away from the Holy City.

You can go to the third building of the Knight’s Headquarters to take up the related missions.

Please note, due to their high level of difficulty, only ‘Gold Level’ and above knight squads are allowed to take these ‘Long-Range Investigative Missions’. Once completed, you can obtain high rewards and Great Expedition Points.”
