The words from Wendy were full of understanding and respect, which made Herag feel very comfortable.
Now, no matter what Wendy says, Herag will just say yes, yes, yes, fully agreeing.
After all, this is the boss who casually transferred a hundred thousand Magic Stones.
A true wealthy lady, and a top-tier one at that.
You must know that when the Cheqi Family originally gave Herag those hundred thousand Magic Stones, it was not so simple. The family had to make a very big decision to heavily invest in Herag.
But with Wendy, Herag just made a casual joke and Wendy directly transferred a full hundred thousand Magic Stones over.
It made Herag feel a bit dizzy and unable to believe it was real.
"Lady Wendy, you are too kind. From now on, the maintenance of your family's witch array will be on me. As long as I am alive, your family's witch array is my responsibility."
Herag directly took on the responsibility of maintaining the witch array at Lady Wendy's house, planning to conduct regular inspections and maintenance.
Herag calculated, estimating it would take over three hundred years with three hundred Magic Stones per maintenance to earn one hundred thousand Magic Stones.
Upon seeing the message, Wendy couldn't help but laugh out loud: "Alright then, from now on, it's all up to you. If there are any problems, I'll come looking for you."
"No problem, rest assured, I am a Level 1 Witch Array Master." Herag was quite confident in this aspect.
After ending the conversation with Lady Wendy, Herag was almost home.
"You're back! No problems, I hope." Reese had been waiting for Herag and immediately came over as soon as he got off the carriage.
She knew Herag had gone to handle an incident related to the Abyssal Cultists and was a bit worried.
The Abyss Plane in her mind was strong and mysterious, making it hard not to worry.
"No problem, I just went to gain some contribution points; it didn't require much, and there was no risk." Herag reassured her, embracing Reese by the waist and walking inside.
"I'm glad you're okay." Seeing Herag in good shape, Reese felt relieved.
"Oh, by the way, our family is rich now," Herag said with a smile.
"Rich? What do you mean by that?" Reese was a bit puzzled.
They weren't poor either, having several tens of thousands of Magic Stones, more than enough for the moment.
Herag told Reese about the hundred thousand Magic Stones Lady Wendy gave him.
Thinking Reese would be delighted, instead, Reese gave Herag a sidelong glance: "I think that wealthy lady has taken a fancy to you..."
"No way, you're overthinking it," Herag said speechlessly.
Reese giggled, "Just kidding, I don't mind if you have one or two more women in the future, as long as you don't forget about me."
Since arriving at the Land of Dawn, Reese felt she lagged far behind the wizards here.
Apart from her beauty, she had little else to show off, which always made her feel down.
Herag hugged her and consoled, "Don't overthink it. As I grow stronger, so will you. I won't abandon you, nor Asuna and the others. In the coming days, I plan to study up and start accumulating contribution points for Serlandir."
"The tasks related to contribution points might be dangerous, right?" Reese said with some concern.
Herag pondered, "There should be safer ones too; there are many types of tasks. Of course, the higher contribution points tasks will carry some risks. Whatever I do, it can't be entirely risk-free; I'll play it by ear."
"If you need my help, make sure to bring me along," Reese requested.
Herag nodded and said, "Mm, don't worry."
...
Late at night, after a fierce battle.
Herag took out a Talisman Stone and began browsing the task hall, searching for suitable tasks.
Contribution Points are generally only available for tasks published by the Serlandir official; tasks issued by others do not offer Contribution Points, except in some special cases.
There are also two types of tasks posted by the Serlandir official: tasks that everyone can take on, and those that only Serlandir members can take.
If you are a Serlandir member, there is an additional reward of Contribution Points for tasks that everyone can take on.
Tasks that only Serlandir members can take on are generally confidential, involving many key pieces of information.
Outsiders are not qualified to take on such tasks because much of the information involved cannot be disclosed to them.
Herag roughly scanned through them, noting that there are indeed many types of tasks issued by Serlandir official.
"Patrol the southeastern border of Silver Moon City for one month, reward 30 Contribution Points."
Herag frowned, "Border patrol?"
This task is only open to Serlandir members because it involves the security issues of Silver Moon City, and cannot be handed over to those outside of the organization.
Herag calculated, realizing it is just 30 points of Contribution for a month, equating to one point of Contribution per day.
If you want to accumulate three thousand points of Contribution, you'd have to patrol the border continuously for over eight years.
It doesn't seem long at all, considering that wizards have lifespans extending into the hundreds of years, eight years is negligible.
The task of border patrol seems simple on the surface, just patrols.
But bear in mind, this is the Land of Dawn.
Outside of Silver Moon City lies a vast polluted region, and border patrol requires patrolling outside the city's walls.
Besides needing to spend long periods within polluted regions, you must also guard against various possible sudden attacks and bizarre incidents.
In the Land of Dawn, these events, although sporadic, are not uncommon.
The frequency is definitely not low, as such events occur almost daily somewhere in the Land of Dawn.
If you're not careful, you might end up trapped in the polluted region, unable to return.
Even retrieving the body is difficult, as dying outside means undergoing special handling, and you won't have the burial opportunity the same as ordinary people.
So the border patrol task only seems simple but is actually highly risky.
The task term being just a month is considered very short, as no one is willing to carry out this task if it's longer.
The longer you stay outside, the greater the likelihood of encountering danger.
Thus, trying to accumulate three thousand Contribution Points over an eight-year period by performing this task is somewhat unrealistic, with high chances of meeting a premature end.
After browsing the tavern forum discussions regarding the border patrol task, Herag decisively abandoned this task.
In his view, the cost-performance ratio of the border patrol task is extremely low.
It entirely depends on luck. If one's luck is bad, it results in high risk for low returns.
Even if fortunate, it's just 30 points of Contribution in a month.
Herag glanced at the 50 points of Contribution in his personal information, feeling that these 50 points came too easily.
This time, he owed Pries quite a favor.
Herag thought for a moment, then searched for tasks related to Magic Potions and Witch Arrays.
If he can earn Contribution Points through these two types of tasks, it would be ideal for him, as they are his areas of expertise.
