Starting From Douluo, Glory is Invincible

Chapter 717 The truth

Beyond the vast borders, those unruly spiritual beasts have become a hidden worry in the hearts of countless people. Some of these spiritual beasts are as huge as mountains, and some are as strong as lightning. They often break into human territory and pose a considerable threat to the originally peaceful life. However, for this vast border, relying solely on official power to clean up these spiritual beasts is obviously a drop in the bucket. As a result, the major guilds became the main force in fighting against the spirit beasts.

 Ying and Zhang Tao are elite members of one of the guilds, the Dragon Pattern Totem Guild. Of the two of them, one is good at stealth assassination and the other is proficient in frontal combat. This time, they were entrusted by the guild and embarked on a journey to the border city-state with a letter stamped with the seal of the Dragon Totem Guild.

 Border city-state, this is a fortified city hanging alone on the border, and it is also the first line of defense for humans against spiritual beasts. The lord here, William James, was a spiritual guide of great reputation. Not only is he powerful, he also has extraordinary wisdom and leadership. However, even such a legendary figure has to face the reality of limited time. As the city lord of the border city, he has to deal with a lot of matters every day, from the layout of the city defense to the arrangements for people's livelihood, every one of them requires him to do it himself. Therefore, it was difficult for him to spare a long period of time to personally clean up those spiritual beasts that hindered the patrol.

 But William James knew very well that the issue of spiritual beasts could not be postponed. These spiritual beasts not only threaten the security of border city-states, but are also a provocation to the entire human territory. So, he decided to ask the major guilds for help in the form of rewards. The mission he issued was not just for the Dragon Mark Totem Guild, but for all powerful guilds. Naturally, there cannot be only one person accepting the task. This is a contest of strength and wisdom.

At the same time that William James issued the reward, he also activated a spiritual circle. This spiritual array can not only display the execution status of the task, but also automatically destroy all reward orders after the task is completed. This is to prevent the embarrassing situation where the mission has been completed but the reward order has not been revoked. However, William James urgently needed manpower for this mission, so he specially marked on the reward order "As long as the mission is not cancelled, it can be carried out."

After going through numerous investigations, Ying and Zhang Tao finally came into contact with the lord of the border city-state. They were led into a magnificent hall, with exquisite dragon totems carved on the walls, which seemed to tell the glorious history of this city-state. William James sat at a huge stone table, his eyes were deep and firm, as if he could see through all hypocrisy and lies.

"Are you the people sent by the Dragon Pattern Totem Guild?" William James's voice was low and powerful. He looked at Ying and Zhang Tao in front of him, as if assessing their strength.

"Yes, Lord." Ying replied respectfully, "We are entrusted by the guild to help you clean up the spiritual beasts on the border."

"Very good." William James nodded, "I know the strength of your guild, and I believe you can complete this task. But I want to remind you that this task is not easy. The types of spiritual beasts on the border Many and powerful, you need to deal with them carefully.”

Ying and Zhang Tao looked at each other, and they could see firmness and determination in each other's eyes. They knew that this mission was not only a test of their strength, but also a defense of their guild's honor.

"Please rest assured, Lord." Zhang Tao stepped forward and said, "We will definitely do our best to complete the mission."

In the following days, Ying and Zhang Tao began their adventure in the border city-state. They patrolled outside the city for signs of spiritual beasts during the day, and returned to the city at night to rest and plan. Every action they take is full of unknowns and dangers, but they never flinch. With their efforts, the problem of spiritual beasts in border city-states has gradually been alleviated. And their names are spread throughout this land.
