Chapter 34 New Life
Although Gordon was shocked that the legendary hero of Kokot himself was actually the village elder, he was just shocked.
What else could it be?
He can't turn around and return to Kokot Village, holding the old village chief's collar and asking him about the glorious days of the past, right?
“That, Madam President.”
Decided to focus on the present, Gordon, who was more pragmatic, asked cautiously: "Excuse me, can I register at the Minagard Assembly Hall?"
The president lady smiled and nodded to him. While handing the hunter's note back to him, she said leisurely: "That's natural. Even without the personal recommendation of Hero Kokot, you were promoted to the second star at such a young age. We have no reason to refuse.”
After saying that, she took the initiative to extend her hand to Gordon, "On behalf of the Minagard Hunter Assembly, I welcome you to join."
Gordon shook hands with her lightly and felt relieved.
At this point, his "organization" has been transferred from Kokot Village to Minagard City. While he can enjoy the same benefits as local hunters, he must also perform corresponding obligations.
She, the president, did not need to worry about the next thing. After whispering something to Ti Ji, she nodded to everyone and said goodbye, then turned and left.
Yamos, who had other things to do, didn't stay long. In a blink of an eye, there were only three of them left in front of the counter.
Oshula and Tikki stared at each other, but they probably couldn't argue anymore. Tikki stuck out her tongue and made a face at Urshula, and then turned to Gordon before the other party got angry.
“Mr. Gordon, could you please provide me with your hunter’s notes?”
Gordon handed over the hunter's note without knowing why, waving his hands and saying: "Stop using honorifics, just call me Gordon."
Di Ji took the note, took out a metal seal from the locked counter drawer, heated it with charcoal, and pressed a hollow star-shaped seal on the cover of the note.
Gordon and Urshula watched this scene curiously, seeing that the "★★" on the cover of the animal hide, which symbolized his hunter level, changed to "★★☆".
"What do you mean? Is this a promotion to three stars? Or is it two and a half stars?" Oshura asked the question in his heart straightforwardly.
Ti Ji ignored her and explained to Gordon with a smile: "You are still a two-star hunter, but you who have this mark can participate in three-star level missions if special conditions permit."
Gordon suddenly became interested. This was obviously the "special treatment" given to him by the president's lady for the sake of the village chief's letter of introduction.
This preferential treatment is so tempting!
“Can you elaborate on what the so-called ‘special conditions’ are?” Gordon asked.
"certainly!"
Di Ji puffed up her chest and said, "First, a three-star or above hunter must accept the mission, and you can only participate in the mission as a team member.
The second thing is that participation in the three-star mission must be approved by the president! "
Gordon was stunned when he heard this. There were only two conditions. They didn't seem like many, but they were actually quite stringent. The second condition alone blocked all possibilities for "sexy operations".
But when I think about it, the establishment of these thresholds is very reasonable and necessary, otherwise this mark will not be a preferential treatment, but a "special permission to die".
“That’s awesome, brother!”
Oshula punched Gordon on the shoulder, "I have the opportunity to participate in the three-star mission before I am an adult. Oh my god, I feel like I have returned to my mother's womb these years."
Subsequently, with the help of Tiggy and Urshula, he rented a small cabin of his own on the second floor of the assembly hall.
These cabins available for rent were originally prepared for young single hunters who did not own property in Minagard.
The hut is not big, only about twenty or thirty square meters, and the interior is relatively simple. However, the necessary furniture such as beds, tables and chairs, storage boxes, armor racks, weapon racks, etc. are all there.
The most important thing is that the rent is quite cheap, which can be regarded as a benefit provided by the gathering to the young hunters, and Gordon is very satisfied with this.
In a good mood, he originally planned to treat Ursula and Tiggy to a big meal to express his gratitude, but unexpectedly, Tiggy refused directly.
"My job, my job~! Let the president know that I accepted your treat because of these trivial matters, and she should deduct my salary!"
Oshula seemed more straightforward. She did not refuse, but she also did not take the opportunity to rip off her juniors. She just ordered the most ordinary set meal, which only cost about 30z.
Minagarde’s Hunters’ Meeting House serves as both a tavern and a restaurant. Gordon was a little surprised by the numbers on the price list.
It’s not too expensive, but it’s too affordable.
He had long been mentally prepared for the higher consumption in Minagard, but he did not expect that the price of similar food was even cheaper than the restaurant in Kokot Village.
After listening to Oshula's explanation, he realized that the consumption level of Minagard was indeed not low. The reason why the food and drinks at the gathering place were cheap was because of the benefits provided by the gathering place to the hunters.
The effect of this can be said to be immediate.
Living in a low-rent house in the assembly hall and eating the meat and wine provided at low prices by the assembly hall, Gordon almost immediately developed the most basic sense of belonging to the Minagard Hunter Assembly.
Madam President is a great person!
After eating and drinking, and bidding farewell to the outgoing huntress Oshula, Gordon and Pork Chop went to the public bathhouse in the assembly hall and soaked in the sauna for half an hour before returning to the room feeling relaxed.
Lying on the soft bed, Gordon yawned comfortably.
“The Hunters’ Meeting House in Minagard is quite nice!”
The second day after arriving in Minagard, Gordon still got up very early.
Rather, for him, early exercise has become a habit similar to brushing his teeth and washing his face. Even if it only breaks for a day, he will feel very uncomfortable.
Minagarde Hunter Assembly Hall has complete facilities, including a sauna, so there is no shortage of a training ground.
After sweating in the training facility for more than an hour and taking a cold shower, Gordon felt like he was completely refreshed.
The tavern in the assembly hall is open all day, and chefs are on duty almost 24 hours a day, so even early in the morning, you can get a hearty breakfast.
Gordon did not choose greasy meat, but bought a large bowl of stew and served it with dry bread to fill his stomach.
The thick soup is cooked well and seems to have a lot of onions and peppers added. After eating it, the whole person feels warm. You can order it more often in the future.
Pork Chop ordered his favorite dried bonito. He sat cross-legged on a round stool, holding the dried fish in his little paws and chewing it, which made Gordon even have a toothache.
According to the original plan, Gordon wanted to spend a few days exploring Minagard City.
I don’t know why, maybe it was because of the special atmosphere in the hunter gathering place, but he changed his mind anyway.
He wanted to start his new life in this city with a hearty hunt.
