Examination of the Imperial Examination - Chapter 41
“What is this?” Alvin looked at the letter in his hand, looked at Teacher Geralt suspiciously, and asked.
Because of the weather, the teacher didn’t have a practice range at home, so he couldn’t do physical training. He originally thought that he only had shooting training today.
In the end, the teacher handed him a letter saying that this was his next training mission.
“I originally planned to give it to you in two days. Listening to your experience last night, the extraordinary circle is indeed dangerous, and you need to carry out some actual combat training tasks to enrich your experience.”
Geralt picked up the teapot and poured some more into his cup.
“So this is a mission?” Alvin asked, shaking the letter in his hand.
“Um”
Old God Geralt responded comfortably.
Looking at the envelope with the stamp in his hand, Alvin felt that it had nothing to do with the mission.
Hearing the teacher’s answer, he tore the envelope, took out the letter inside, and opened it to read.
The letter was sent from the eastern suburbs, a place called Posita.
The letter mentioned that starting a few days ago, there seemed to be many wild animals around the town. Many people’s livestock and two pastures were attacked.
The town also called the police, and the police went to investigate, but they found nothing.
The town also organized a team led by experienced hunters to look for it in the nearby woods. As a result, several people were injured, and they did not even see the shadow of the prey.
People in the town were panicking, and many people began to plan to move out. The mayor had no choice but to issue a bounty in the hunter’s circle, with a reward of 20 pounds to 50 pounds, asking people to deal with the beasts near the town.
“Hunter circle.”
Seeing this word, Alvin repeated it softly.
“Heh, you think that only those in your supernatural realm have a fixed circle. I used to be the best hunter in this circle.”
Geralt put down the teacup, raised his head slightly, and explained.
Indeed, you are a top scout. I know all this. You don’t have to show it off. Alvin cleared his throat and said:
“So the teacher wants me to solve something? Tracking and searching, but I just listened to you talking about some theories, but I haven’t actually operated it.” Alvin said a little less confidently.
“Your marksmanship can already be considered a pass. Isn’t this a good opportunity to practice? Besides, don’t you still have it? This little guy is very smart and can help a lot if he uses it well.”
Geralt smiled and pointed at Yuumi, who was sleeping on Alvin’s shoulder, snoring with narrowed eyes.
At 2:30 in the afternoon, Alvin wore a thin black trench coat with Yuumi on his shoulders and walked out the door under the teacher’s eyes.
At this time, the rain had stopped. Alvin patted the multifunctional outdoor belt that the teacher gave him, and felt the pistol bullets and spells on both sides, as well as Yumi’s dried fish, full of confidence.
Instead of renting a rental carriage, he delivered two letters nearby, one from Benoy’s lawyer’s house and the other from Mrs. Rosa.
I don’t know how many days I will be going on this trip. After all, tracking the prey also depends on luck.
If Benoy’s lawyer’s telegram comes over, I won’t be able to contact me.
At Mrs. Rosa, she told the other party that she had something to do in Backlund in the next two days, and the visit might be delayed.
And told them that if they were in a hurry, they could send the letter to the teacher, and they would receive it as soon as they got home.
When he was ready, he stepped into a carriage that cost 17 soules to rent and set off for the town of Posita.
When the sun’s rays turned the spire of the town’s church golden, the carriage finally reached the Posita.
This small town is located in the northwest of Tingen. Many buildings still retain the characteristics of the pre-steam era. There are almost no factories. It is a business point for all the nearby villages.
The carriage put him next to a hotel in the town and left.
This guy Yuumi slept all the way, and just got off the carriage, he arched his body on his shoulders, stretched his waist, shook his head from side to side, and looked at the strange environment curiously.
Alvin thought about it for a while, and decided to go to the hotel to apply for housing. Then he took the teacher’s letter of introduction and walked along the streets of the town to the mayor’s house.
The so-called mayor’s house is just a little bigger than other people’s houses. Alvin stood at the door and knocked politely three times, then stepped back and waited quietly.
After a while, an older-looking maid opened the door, looking at Alvin at the door and asked:
“Sir, who are you looking for?”
“Oh, I came from Pritz Harbor to look for Mr. Mayor. My name is Alvin Tieyan. This is my letter of introduction.”
Alvin smiled slightly, took out the letter from the teacher, and handed it over.
“Okay, please wait a moment.”
The maid took the letter, bowed slightly, and gently closed the door.
She hurried in and informed her master. After a while, she came out again and led Alvin into the house. She had planned to help Alvin get the coat, but he refused.
Just kidding, how could he take off his coat, the bullets on his belt, the spell, the dagger, and the grab bag under his arm, would be misunderstood.
The living room is quite large, with decorative carpets and landscape oil paintings hanging in some places.
The maid brought Alvin to the sofa area, and said to the man in a white shirt, a brown vest, and a gold watch strap hanging from his shirt pocket:
“Sir, the guest is here.”
A man of about forty-five or six years old, of medium height, with slightly bald sideburns, stood up with a smile.
“Hello, Mr. Mayor.” Klein put his hand on his chest and saluted.
The man looked at him in surprise and smiled:
“Good evening, please take a seat. Would you like coffee or black tea?”
Alvin sat on the couch and answered calmly:
“Black tea, thank you.”
“Marquis black tea.” The mayor ordered the maid, turned his head to look at him and said, “I’m Pylos, the mayor of Posita, your student of Mr. Geralt? What should I call you?”
“Alvin Tieyan, you can call me Alvin directly. Teacher Geralt asked me to come.” Alvin replied with a smile.
“Your teacher should have told you, some of the situation here, you know that this thing is very dangerous, these days I have two, a hunter stronger than you also took this mission, and they both injured.”
Mayor Pylos looked at Alvin, and then moved his gaze to the cat on his shoulders who was licking his paws, obviously not believing him.
“Mr. size doesn’t mean everything.” When Alvin heard such danger, he felt a little drum in his heart. No matter what, he couldn’t lose face, and he couldn’t embarrass the teacher~www.mtlnovel.com~ Well, if you insist, you must It is to catch those beasts to solve this matter, and you will get the commission. “The mayor still reminded.
“certainly.”
Alvin nodded to show that he knew.
Next, at the mayor’s place, I learned something about the situation. I learned that just last night when it rained, the farm outside the town was attacked again.
“There was such a heavy rainstorm last night, and there was thunder and lightning. There shouldn’t be many beasts willing to come out to hunt, not to mention the area where people live. It should be well investigated.”
Alvin used the knowledge he had learned from his teacher to try to do a simple analysis.
The vegetables planted by some people around the town were also damaged. There was no harvest for a few days. The townspeople became a little nervous, afraid that one day wild animals would suddenly appear in the town and attack the crowd.
Pinos is also very worried. There are only three or five police officers in the town, and they usually have to maintain the law and order in the town. Although he also went out to investigate, he found nothing.
He has also reported to Pritz Harbour, and replied that he is concentrating the police force to arrest the “crazy thugs” who have appeared recently, and it may take some time before the manpower is released.
Hearing that the police department couldn’t get any manpower, Alvin smiled and shook his head and muttered, “It’s really a chain reaction.”
With the injuries of the first two hunters, no one was too willing to take on this job. There was no way. He had raised the bounty to 80 pounds, and found key clues of 30 pounds.
After asking some more information, he refused the mayor’s invitation to dinner. Alvin took Yuumi down the street and returned to the hotel. He needed to think about what he should do next based on the information he had learned.
