Chapter 6

"SSS-level task...isn't it difficult?" Merlin asked tentatively, slightly interested in this lucrative task.

"It's definitely super difficult. General adventurers are not allowed to participate. Mithril can only fight and fight. Funded adventurers are the main combat power." Alice recalled a little, and narrated seriously, "Listen to the chairman, 30 The SSS-level mission a year ago was to kill the North Sea giant monsters near the coast of Norway and Greenland. After awakening, the sea channel was directly blocked, and the bonus was also from the Kingdom of Norway."

"North Sea Giant Monster?!" Merlin had indeed heard of this monster, almost a legendary monster, and was about to connect with the gods. "That big octopus?"

"What you said is so light. Although I know you are very powerful, I think it is difficult for you to defeat the North Sea Giant Monster. To be honest, it can't be described in the category of holy rank." Silk is not alarmist, because there are too many legends about the Giant Demon in the North Sea, and most people can almost equate it with the gods.

"Joke, I really didn't put any North Sea Giant Monster in my eyes." Mei Lin smiled, thinking that the North Sea Giant Monster can really defeat him. That's really a happy thing, because maybe This monster can really relieve himself of the curse.

"Although you don't have magical power and grudge, according to my guess, your strength is close to the peak of the holy rank, right?" Alice asked tentatively, neither saying high nor low.

"As you please, I don't even know my level." Merlin shrugged.

"There is definitely nothing wrong." Alice insisted, and continued, "But I want to tell you, listen to the president say, 30 years ago, there were a lot of powerful holy ranks, and there were a few peaks of holy ranks. But either he was repelled by the North Sea giant monster, or he was buried in a huge mouth or the sea, and finally had to ask the Holy See for help and sent the brave man."

"The brave?" Meilin didn't even think that the brave was better than the ordinary holy rank?

"It's my predecessor, many ordinary people are like thunderous brave." Alice showed some pride on her face.

"Who is it?" Merlin didn't take it seriously. He had killed quite a few brave men and didn't think he was so powerful.

"The legendary hero of the gun." Alice thought that Merlin must know the name, and felt that the hero of the gun was much stronger than Merlin.

"Huh!?" Merlin frowned, obviously a little surprised, and instantly recalled the figure holding the red spear and standing under countless demon corpses.

"Are you familiar? I've heard in the Holy See that the legendary spear hero successfully defeated Lucifer II, your mother alone." Alice said with interest.

"That's right, you know a lot."

Merlin didn't show any special emotions on her face either, she seemed very calm.

Consider that there were a lot of strong men in the crusade army, and the spear hero was very arrogant.

He forbade other people to intervene, demanded a head-to-head challenge with Lucifer II, and won.

Merlin always thought that her mother was very powerful, and she beat everyone like her son, but was defeated by the hero of the gun?

At the beginning, Merlin was still very weak. Looking at the figure of the hero of the gun was indeed shocked, I felt that this guy was only worthy of the name of "the strongest.

That duel was a fair and just 1V1, no one intervened, the fight was dark and dark, it was a wonderful battle that Merlin had seen.

But the result is regrettable. Knowing that now Merlin believes that his mother is not dead, he must not jump to conclusions without seeing the body.

Alice wanted to stimulate Merlin, but he was much calmer, and couldn't help thinking that he was indeed a demon, and she looked so cold-blooded in the face of his mother's death.

"In other words..." Merlin was very interested in the Hero of the Gun. She remembered that Alice hadn't been in the Holy See and knew a lot. "Aren't you also a Hero? How much do you know about the Hero of the Gun?"

"What are you going to do?" Alice asked in surprise.

"I'll just ask, I'm curious~" Merlin was vague, didn't say that he wanted to kill this guy, and see if he could lift the heart curse. Among the strong men I heard, I feel that the gun hero has hope to lift his heart. curse.

"I don't know much. I heard that this predecessor is super powerful. He is regarded as a legend by the entire Holy See and one of the top ten legendary heroes." Alice seems to know so much.

"Ten legendary heroes?" Merlin frowned and was immediately embarrassed. Alice's words seemed to be saying that there are 9 more as powerful as the Gunners!?

"It's the ten brave men who are very powerful and have indelible feats." Alice explained.

"Are they... alive?" Merlin asked, thinking that he was as famous as the Hero of the Gun, and his strength is not bad, right?There is a slash value.

"I don't know, I heard the bishop drunk, and the gods talked a bit about the legendary heroes. If there is one..." Alice glanced at Merlin and said faintly, "Can you This Lucifer III called Dad by rubbing on the ground."

"Ha..." Merlin gave a dry laugh, thinking that she was still hidden, but with such a strong guy, there is still a chance to lift the curse by herself, "Then 30 years ago, what was the result of the spear hero's crusade against the Northern Sea Giant Monster?"

"It seems to have wounded the North Sea giant monster and let it sink to the bottom of the sea." Alice recalled what the chairman said.

Merlin fell into deep thought, thinking that it was just a wound, then if he killed the North Sea Giant Monster, wouldn't he be able to prove that he was better than the hero of the gun?It's just a bit difficult to do on the bottom of the sea, I can't swim, and the magic of avoiding water is not effective on me...

"I just want to say, as long as we work hard, the debt can be paid off, don't always spread negative emotions, it will affect me." Alice said angrily.

"Then we start to eat together and wait to die, just wait for SSS to entrust it to the door?" Merlin is still in a state of lazy cancer.

"How can this work? We can't do this. We have to prepare with both hands. While working hard to make a living, while waiting for the SSS level commission, it will be more secure." Alice showed a serious expression and added, "So I want to reach the Holy Order as soon as possible. , To be a Mithril adventurer, as for you, I don't expect you to break away from the black iron class."

"It's really troublesome..."

Merlin curled his lips, remembering the treasure key, so he took the key on his neck and looked at it.

As for why Merlin blatantly hung it around her neck, it was because she was not afraid of others stealing it. She was the safest on her neck and would never forget anything.

Merlin felt that waiting for Alice to rise to the holy rank was not reliable, or should he honestly imagine other ways, such as treasure hunting?

"Now, Alice, last time you said that a friend who was knowledgeable and talented could see the secret of the key?"

"Yes, that's right." Alice nodded.

"Is it reliable? Don't worry about our treasure." Merlin asked vigilantly.

"Of course it is reliable. Although she is a silver adventurer, she is only interested in knowledge, and she doesn't care about money." Alice seemed to have confidence in this friend.

"What's your name?" Merlin asked curiously.

"Cough!" Alice coughed lightly and answered sincerely

"Leonardo Di Piero da Vinci."
