Chapter 63 - 63: Start Taking Missions!
After seeing the missions the spiritual beasts immediately agreed to work and do missions.
"Let me tell you this first! The mission of hunting beasts is limited as we cannot store meat for a long time." Robert saw them agree and said.
"Currently in total, we need ten beasts of Qi condensation Realm. Five of Foundation Realms. So places for this are limited and on this note choose missions according to your capability." Robert continued saying this. He cannot store meat for a long time as it would spoil and precious ingredients would be wasted.
Hearing him everyone was in a hurry after all this is an easy mission so everyone wants it.
In total there are twenty-three spiritual beasts present in front of him. Out of which one is at the foundation realm is Valor.
Five of them are at the peak of the Qi Condensation Realm. This includes Molly, Buster, Gomen, Lucas, Axel.
Yesterday the trio ate the hot pot but they are unable to achieve breakthroughs because of deficient spiritual energy. He asked them yesterday, Approximately how much spiritual energy do you need for a breakthrough?
They said they need four times the spiritual energy present inside the hot pot. Robert was shocked hearing him four times?
That hot pot was made with precious ingredients and there were even materials of Core Formation boar.
And they still need four times spiritual energy? Robert was speechless hearing them. Even with his spiritual enhancement, he could only double the amount of spiritual energy.
Four times is a bit difficult…
If he wants to create something of that level then he can only make up with high-quality ingredients like using only Core formation beasts meat for cooking.
But it's difficult to kill a formation realm creature by himself and he can't expose White Fang's strength or else they would attract a stronger opponent.
Taotie restaurant still needs some peaceful time for development. At least he needs three months to upgrade his cultivation to the peak of the Foundation realm and a continuous supply of resources are needed to achieve this target.
So he can only temporarily put aside their treatment. He asked them to collect materials as well as Merit points to exchange the Special grade spiritual food.
Robert classified spiritual food on several levels. Like Grade one- This will help spiritual beasts at Qi Realm to achieve breakthroughs.
Grade two- This will help spiritual beasts at the foundation realm in cultivation. As for the further grade, Robert did not think about it for now.
Except for these two grades, there is one special grade. This grade includes some special spiritual food that has a unique purpose like Explosive Soup and others food that helps in critical breakthroughs.
Three of them agreed to do missions as they knew that Robert could do this.
After Robert finished speaking, Alex immediately opened his mouth and said, "We will take missions to kill Foundation Realm creatures. "
By we, he meant Lucas and Gomen. Robert nodded he did not doubt their capability of doing this mission.
"Write their names on the mission plate," Robert said to Slither and White Fang. Slither took out a wooden plate from behind.
And then White Fang engraved the content of the mission and their names on the wooden plate in beast language. There are three people so they can only hunt three foundation realms. This is one of the restrictions so that one person cannot hog all the missions.
Robert received the Wooden plate and showed them the content, "Three of you can hunt and bring Foundation Realm Beast body here and then record your merit points here."
Three of them were cold so they did not say anything but nodded and left. After seeing them leaving, Valor jumped out and said, "I also want to apply for this mission."
Hearing this without needing Robert to say anything White Fang wrote his name on the mission plate along with the mission content.
"Owner I also want to apply for a mission to hunt the Qi Realm beast..." At this time other guys were not able to sit and say this. The one who said this is a coyote. His strength is at the sixth layer of the Qi condensation realm. Fairly normal strength.
"Name?"
"Levi!"
"Okay, your mission is recorded." White Fang started to take her job seriously. But the picture is very weird. A grown-up girl writing on the wooden plate with charcoal. No matter how he looked, she looked like a child playing with board and chalk in kindergarten.
"I want to take that mission too." Another beast jumped out; he looked like a mantis albeit a bit bigger. His strength is at the Eight levels of the Qi condensation Realm. Which is considered top grade among the Qi Realm.
"Name…"
"Leo..."
"Next…"
"Name…"
….
Soon the mission quota to hunt the spiritual beast of Qi realms was fulfilled and others cannot take this mission. The beast who took this mission hurriedly left. Seeing that there were no easy missions, others were anxious.
Among these beasts, there are mostly creatures with low strength. On average they have the cultivation of the third level of Qi condensation.
Of course, there are exceptions like Molly and Buster. Both of them did not take any mission but waited.
"Don't worry there are some easy missions for you too." Robert saw them being anxious and said with comfort, "There are some temporary one-time missions here you can do."
"You can find these plants if you find them or even their location you can get a large number of Merit points." Robert slowly said and then continued, "Or you can temporarily work under Little fang and others for special missions."
"Like clearing the trees surrounding the Clod Peak you can get 1 Merit point for five hours of work…. Removing the Rocks you can get 1 merit point for five hours of work… Levelling the ground with them you will get 1 merit point for five hours of work.…" Robert said some temporary one-time missions. These are laborious missions but there is no threat to their lives.
They will get paid according to the number of hours they do. In analogy, they will get wages for their hourly work. For one hour they get 0.2 Merit Points.
This amount is ridiculously low but these people felt happy. Because it's easy and there is no threat to their life
"Okay, the owner, we will do this mission." All of them said to Robert. Even though they will do these temporary missions they still looked at the mission to find vegetables and spices. If they find something like this in the wild they will become rich.
"Slither! Celli! take them to do missions." Robert looked at two reliable helpers and said. And after that, he looked at two unreliable ones and sighed. Only if they were like them….
Slither and Celli nodded and left along with the temporary labourers(Spiritual Beast).
After they left Robert looked at Molly and Buster and said, "Say what do you want."
These two are his first customers so he is quite good to them.
"Owner, we need Explosive soup! Is that possible?" Buster looked at him and said.
Robert was surprised after hearing them but soon he understood their idea and said, "Do You want to increase your strength and then do missions?"
This is a good idea. Rather than waiting to collect merit points, they increase their strength by exchanging High-grade mortal herb and then do missions providing richer rewards.
Buster nodded after hearing him. This is exactly this intention. At first, like others, they wanted to accumulate Merit points and then exchange Explosive soup and then try breaking through.
But then they changed their mind and decided I would get explosive soup for High-Grade Mortal herb. And increase their strength. They did not want to wait for the future and decided to increase their strength now.
With stronger strength, they can take missions rewarding more merit points.
"Okay then! Wait for a minute and I will make two Explosive soups for you guys." Robert said it takes a little effort to make Explosive soup.
His evaluation for both of them increased. They did not wait for the future and decided to increase their strength immediately. Unlike others who wanted to get so-called free spiritual food for breakthroughs. In reality, the food is not free, they are providing materials like meat for him and he is making food for them using little meat. In the end, he is the one who is making a profit.
At least these two used their brain which is gratifying for him. He needs people like this who will not get blinded with some benefit and do not look at long term situations.
He arrived at the kitchen and started to make Explosive soup. He used a small part of spirit mushroom along with other spices.
The process was similar to before and soon two servings of Explosive soup were ready.
