I Keep Witches While Others Keep Dragons-53 Chapter 53

Thomas came to the top of the stairs. Under his command, all the nobles retreated to make room for him.

All the mages or warrior teams who were ready to accept the commission came to the stairs.

Including Jack’s team of three people in Dragon Mage Academy.

Andrew and Nason’s team.

The sixty members of team warrior led by Asdan, a grandson of Charon.

And so on.

What surprised Andrew most was that he saw Taylor in a team.

The team was led by Signa’s four plus one team.

The so-called four plus one was a special rule of the trial center.

The first-grade students could only receive level-1 to level-3 commissions, but they were not completely impossible to touch level-four commissions.

If there were more than four students in grade two or three, grade one could also be recruited into the team and receive the commission of level four.

This was the four plus one commission upgrading system, which was intended to encourage senior students to take care of junior fellow students more.

No wonder Signa from the same college came. It seemed that she was accepted the task, not to apologize on purpose.

Andrew looked at her again.

Noticing her gaze, Signa waved to him gracefully..

But Taylor, who was in the line, didn’t even tilt her head as if she couldn’t see himself at all.

He felt that Taylor seemed to be angry.

Andrew shrugged and didn’t care about it.

Now the most important thing is to complete the commission and Director Nicholas’s examination.

And this client was his father.

After two hours, Thomas had recovered and adjusted his mood.

They had a clear distinction between public and private interests.

Facing the seven or eight teams at the foot of the stairs, Thomas, who had completely entered the state, temporarily put aside the family affection and said as if he didn’t know Andrew at all.

“Hello, everyone. I’m Thomas A Bernard.”

“As we all know, our Bernard clan is in charge of the construction and planning of the Hundred Flower Empire water resource project.”

“In the next ten years, the Bernard clan was going to build a channel from the eastern realm to King City.”

“This channel will not only become the new main road of Hundred Flower Empire waterway.” 𝘧𝘳𝐞𝚎𝑤ℯ𝘣𝗻𝘰ѵℯl.c𝐨𝚖

“At the same time, it also transported the high-quality water resources of the Moonlight Lake District to nourish the fertile land along the bank, helping the agriculture of the Hundred Flower Empire. It also made four million people along the bank up to King City get more convenient and high-quality water resources.”

“In the aspect of military affairs, this waterway will also contribute to the national defense of our country in the eastern border.”

A high-pitched speech was not short, but fully stated the importance of the river.

Thomas was a famous politician and also a well-known persuading master.

This speech successfully aroused people’s perception of the stake of this commission and increased the initiative of the undertaker.

It made people feel that they were doing something good for the people while they were earning benefits from the commission.

Making money and doing public service were two right things. This kind of thing would be passionate for anyone, wouldn’t it?

Speaking of this, Thomas paused tactfully and then said:

“But there is something wrong with the construction of this canal.”

“Recently, a large number of griffins appeared on the west side of the Moonlight Lake District, which was located in Artemis lake.”

“Artemis lake was the starting point of the construction of the canal. If griffins didn’t leave, the canal couldn’t place the first bank stake, so it couldn’t be built.”

“And the griffin was a social creature with astonishing appetite and rapid metabolism.”

“An adult griffin could discharge more than three hundred kilograms of droppings and urine, containing a large amount of sulfur.”

“But now, according to the investigation of the sentry of our duke mansion, we can be sure that the number of the griffin is between thirty and sixty.”

“If they occupied the Artemis lake all the time, not only the canal could not be started, but also the Artemis lake would be seriously polluted.”

“Once the water was contaminated, the consequences would be unimaginable.”

Speaking of this, Thomas officially began to announce the commission.

“All of you are powerful mages or warriors. Today, in the name of the Bernard clan, I formally submit my commission to you.”

“To eliminate all the griffins in Artemis lake and Moonlight Lake District.”

“As for the payment, it would be decided according to the hunting situation of each team.”

“If you think it’s too difficult, you can choose to quit.”

“Now, if you are willing to accept this commission, you can take a step forward.”

Undoubtedly, the eight teams stepped forward in unison.

There were over a hundred members in this squad. Except for Asdan’s squad warriors, almost all of them in the squad were intermediate mages.

This kind of troop was strong enough to fight a medium-sized battle.

Suddenly, Jack raised his hand and wanted to ask.

Thomas nodded, indicating that he could speak.

Jack asked, “Do we need to work together?”

He said this to Andrew.

Jack didn’t want to take any action with Andrew.

Thomas shook his head and said, “Please discuss it by yourselves. I’m only responsible for issuing the commission, and I won’t interfere in the specific actions.”

“Then how about the payment for the separate actions?” A strange mage asked.

He looked like a common grade three student of mage academy.

Thomas said, “According to the number of kills and whether they are strong or not.”

“What about the points of the school?” Signa asked.

Thomas replied, “It has nothing to do with me. The school has its reward system at point system. I have no right to ask.”

Upon hearing this, Andrew understood.

This was by no means a simple commission.

The griffin was not only a social animal but also a strong individual. It should have the most basic intelligence.

It was extremely difficult for an intermediate mage squad to defeat a griffin, not to mention that there were so many griffins. f𝓇𝘦𝒆𝘄𝑒𝗯𝑛𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄𝘰𝓶

No wonder Director Nicholas chose this commission. It seemed that he was caring about me.

The key to this commission was whether the different teams could cooperate to fight.

If they were in different camps…

Thinking of this, Andrew asked the last question, “What if I don’t kill them? Will it be better if I drive them away directly? And the task will be much easier.”

“No.”

Thomas answered firmly.

The two of them were the employee and the employer. Even Thomas was proud of his son, he didn’t show any emotion when he answered.

He snapped:

“Griffin is a vengeful creature. Once it escapes, it will find an opportunity to revenge one day.”

“So please kill them all.”

Did we have no choice?

This commission seemed to be very dangerous, but, in addition to being dangerous, it also needed to compete with other teams.

If possible, Andrew didn’t want to compete with them while having a battle with a troublesome monster like the griffin.

But he had no choice. He had to obey Director Nicholas’s order.

“Is there any problem?”

Seeing that no one spoke, Thomas waved his hand and said, “Then, for the life of the people, please go.”

In this way, the eight teams turned around in unison and began the level-4 mission.
