Chapter Seventy-Nine: High-Profile Reception

  The tasks on the crystal slate, Huo Hai won't touch them for a short time. At least not until he breaks through to the Spiritual Realm himself. What needs to be done now is what's written on this pile of papers below.

  On the table, there were several thick stacks of paper, each with a task application form. The papers clearly stated the task objectives, the standards for completing the tasks, and the rewards that could be obtained after completion. These tasks were published by some colleges and others were published by individuals.

  The college is worried that some people will use these tasks to transfer the contributions in their hands. Therefore, personal tasks published absolutely cannot have contribution rewards. Only tasks released by the college will have contribution value rewards.

  So these personal tasks, Huo Hai directly threw them aside without even looking at them. To say that these tasks are still relatively neatly categorized. Most of them are personal tasks, but each region's task is placed in a special position. At a glance, it won't make people unclear about the real difficulty of these tasks. Depending on the region, the task difficulty can be easily seen.

  Huo Hai shook his head: "Seriously, I thought these tasks could be divided into levels. Didn't they used to write it that way before? Why isn't it here?" Huo Hai seemed to have forgotten that this world didn't have English letters.

  After ignoring personal tasks, there are not many college tasks to choose from. College tasks can be taken because of college contributions. So once a task appears, it will be taken by others immediately, and only those that are very difficult will be retained.

  Of course, there are also some long-term tasks, which are all about collecting materials and the like. These tasks have absolutely no high rewards, but every time they are completed, there will be college credits to be obtained. Huo Hai flipped through these papers quickly, picked out the suitable ones, and put them aside immediately. They would come in handy when receiving the task later on.

  "Miga Mountain, where the spiritual realm is inhabited by spiritual beasts, has a relatively high level of danger. It's really not a bad place." Huo Hai quickly found a very strange name. Miga Mountain, with a strange name, was actually a small mountain that wasn't particularly large.

  In terms of land area, it's roughly the same as Xizang Nan Shan. It's not far from the college either, and you can get there quickly. This place is a bit special, with spiritual beasts that roam in and out of the spiritual realm, making it extremely dangerous for those who haven't reached the spiritual realm.

  However, those who have reached the Spiritual Realm either directly join the Imperial Family, which is not a place that can be visited. Or they look down on the few Spiritual Realm spirit beasts here and choose a more suitable place instead. In short, this Miga Mountain is usually a place where very few people go.

  The reward is meager, but the danger is great. In the past, many adventurers entered, but never returned after venturing too deep. Thus, Mikajiri Mountain has become a forbidden place for many at the academy, a place that cannot be visited.

  Just right, this place has a lot of repetitive tasks. Huo Hai took a look: "The middle eye bead of the three-eyed toad, the horn on the forehead of the striped deer, the blood-red dragonfly... Ah, and this one, the turtle pearl inside the tortoise's body. I didn't expect that there would be so many repetitive tasks in the Miga Mountains." Huo Hai was very satisfied with this, as he needed a large number of repetitive tasks.

  In the past when playing online games, wasn't there a word called "grinding"? In Huo Hai's view, contributing to this academy also requires grinding. If you don't grind, how can you get a large amount of contribution points? Such tasks are just suitable for him to do.

  Besides, if you hunt and kill the spiritual beasts in the Spiritual Realm, the materials obtained can also be directly submitted for the task. The spiritual beasts that have reached the Spiritual Realm are almost entirely useful to the Academy from head to toe.

  "Hello, I'll take these tasks." Huo Hai held several papers in his hand. Among them, four were the collection tasks that had just been selected. There were also a few more, which were tasks from the Academy to collect some special spiritual medicines. These spiritual medicines weren't only found on Miga Mountain, but could be found anywhere. Generally speaking, those who went out on missions would take on similar tasks.

  The waitress smiled sweetly: "Okay, please wait a moment." The more people who take orders, the happier they are. The waiters here also have something similar to commissions that can be taken. The receptionist here is a good job.

  However, when the little girl picked up the paper handed over by Huo Hai, she immediately widened her eyes. "You, you want to take on this task." Huo Hai nodded, and the little receptionist said even more incredulously: "You, you really want to take on such a dangerous task."

  The receptionist's voice involuntarily rose a little, instantly attracting the attention of the people around. Huo Hai frowned. But towards such a young girl, he really couldn't get angry. He lowered his hat and said in a low voice: "That's right, it's these ones. Hurry up and help me with the procedures. I still have things to do." The people around had already been drawn in by the two of them.

  "But do you know what kind of task this is? Even a master at the Spiritual Realm wouldn't dare to take it on alone."

  This made everyone even more curious. Soon, some good people came forward and took a few task papers from the little girl's hand. Suddenly, several people who understood the situation opened their mouths wide in surprise.

  "What's going on, what task does he want to do?" A tall man pulled over a thin man beside him and asked loudly.

  The skinny man broke free from the big Han's hand, without any dissatisfaction: "This, this guy actually took down several Miga Mountain figures, I really don't know if he is looking for death." The skinny man had an incredulous face, and those who knew what Miga Mountain was immediately gasped in shock. And here, the task came and went, not just a few times.

  "What's going on, what happened to Mikasa Mountain, is it very dangerous?" A person who didn't know much about it started asking the people around him in a low voice. Not everyone knew where Mikasa Mountain was.

  The skinny guy just now had a look of "you're an idiot": "You don't even know this. Miga Mountain is of course dangerous, there are indeed spiritual beasts with Lingzhuang realm, but the real danger isn't these, it's the things on top of these tasks."

  The thin man began to talk incessantly amidst the crowd's smug expressions. It turned out that the tasks Hou Hai had taken on were ones others didn't dare accept, because they were extremely difficult to complete. Even a high-level spiritual realm expert might not be able to keep their life, let alone complete them.

  First, let's talk about the three-eyed toad. The third eye of this creature is a necessary item for making a kind of elixir. At the same time, it is also used by the three-eyed toad as an attacking tool. This eye can emit highly toxic rays, with extremely powerful force and terrifying toxins. Even if you are a high-level cultivator in the spiritual realm, you need to be careful when dealing with this toxin. But that's not the most troublesome part.

  The most troublesome thing is that these three-eyed toads are all group-dwelling creatures. Once you take action, it's not just a matter of dealing with one or two of them. Even if they only have spiritual blood boundaries, they can still make spiritual masters lose face.

  The striped deer itself is extremely powerful, with every adult reaching the spiritual bone realm, and a few even reaching the spiritual realm. They often appear in groups of three to five, and without the strength of the spiritual realm, ordinary people really dare not provoke these things.

  The Crimson Dragonfly is not very dangerous. However, the Crimson Dragonfly has a very small gall and will run away immediately when it encounters wind or movement. Moreover, its speed is extremely fast and its movements are agile. Even general-speed Spirit Realm high-level cultivators cannot catch up to it, making it an extremely difficult insect-type spirit beast to replenish. It doesn't have much strength, but it's the most difficult one to complete among the four major tasks.

  If you follow the blood-red dragonfly and run deep into the Mikaga Mountains, you will definitely encounter many dangers as you rush about.

  Fortunately, every year when the Red Dragonfly lays eggs, it is weak and concentrated on a small riverbank not far from Miga Mountain. The college organizes people to go there every year at this time to supplement the slow-flying Red Dragonflies.

  It's usually only at this time that someone will take on this task, and there is still a long way to go before the Blood Red Dragonfly lays its eggs. The Blood Red Dragonfly is extremely important because it is an indispensable precious item for refining the Blood Refining Pill. The Blood Red Dragonflies of Miga Mountain are a very important resource for the Imperial City Academy.

  Finally, it's this Dry Land Turtle. This Dry Land Turtle doesn't have much strength, but basically they're all at the Spiritual Bone Boundary. This thing is the least dangerous because they never proactively attack others.

  Huangtu Gui, a land-dwelling turtle-type spirit beast. It carries the Turtle Pearl within its body, which is also an extremely precious material. More valuable than the Blood Red Dragonfly, it's an important auxiliary material for refining the Bone Tempering Pill.

  But this desert tortoise has a very bad feature, that is, this thing is extremely hard. It's very difficult to kill the desert tortoise. And once the desert tortoise feels threatened with death, it will detonate the turtle pearl without hesitation.

  The massive explosion made the desert turtle a difficult-to-kill but easy-to-explode creature. Without special techniques, it often wasted a lot of time and ended up with nothing. It could even be killed or injured by the desert turtle's self-explosion. It can be said that only those who have reached the spiritual realm and possess extremely sharp weapons will take action against the desert turtle.

  "Now you know, going to provoke these things is simply looking for death. In the past, a master of the spiritual realm entered Miga Mountain alone and never came back. Miga Mountain is not something we can touch."

  The thin man looked at Huo Hai with great satisfaction, but Huo Hai seemed to be ignoring him. "Can you help me with the next task now?"

  The receptionist whispered: "Withdraw the task? Okay... wait, what did you say, you want to continue, you still want to continue. Don't you value your life?" The receptionist felt like she was about to go crazy, how could she encounter such a person.

  Huo Hai was also somewhat annoyed, just remember it if you want to, no need to go. "That's right, I'll take on these tasks, please hurry up and help." The crowd surrounding them grew larger and larger, soon they might not be able to get out.
