Dafei was plunged into intense agony. [This article is from]

First, one must understand what a hundred million is. Without discussing the current market value, in terms of the game, an angel costs 5,000 gold coins, so 100 million can buy 20,000 angels! 20,000! Even 20,000 flies could block the sky, let alone 20,000 angels! Is this a divine war? A world-destroying battle? Alright, the production of angels in the city is fixed, and even with money, it's not guaranteed to have the goods, so it's impossible to produce such an exaggerated number.

Then, let's talk about territory. 100 million gold coins can build 100 villages in the new continent! If 100 villages are squeezed together, that's a country! Does that mean I have to pay in installments to build a country?

This old man uses public funds to repair my ship and send troops, pretending to be righteous, and then I fight to the death in the underground. If I win, he gets the credit, and his political achievements soar. Even if I lose, he doesn't lose a single hair. No matter what, it's a win for him. Now, I make a request, and he actually wants to charge me, and he's even gouging me for 100 million!!!

Even if I have a ship from a few eras ahead, even if Ailin's specialty is unlimited production, and each time it can fill the ship, plus my ship's speed and navigation skills are top-notch, earning 1 million gold coins in a day and a half of real-time long-distance sea travel, a round trip is three days, earning 100 million isn't a big deal, just 100 trips, which is 300 days, less than a year.

But in reality, it will definitely take more than a year, right? Two years? How many two-year periods are there in life?

Is a ship worth such an investment? Is this mission worth such an investment? Is the value of the succubus that high? The benefits of winning might offset a bit, but what if I lose? If I lose, the ship is gone, the succubus instructor is gone, and this mobile barracks is gone. Then I have to start from scratch, running a small ship to pay off this 100 million debt? And fighting with enemies along the way?

Not paying the debt? Shit, the system will forcibly deduct the money! Can you play a game and beat the system? Unless you abandon this account and start a new one. Yes, once you fail, you can only abandon this account!

In the end, it's not this old man's fault, it's the system that's holding back the players! To be honest, I also think that a mobile barracks without population or territory is a bit ridiculous. How would the system easily let players be so comfortable?

While he was in a dilemma, Osseriman sighed again, "Actually, I believe that with your strength, you can do it even without the barracks. After all, our budget for this operation did not include so-called reinforcements. Now, let's talk about the hidden profession you requested."

Hidden profession! Dafei was suddenly startled! No way, this was just a random demand, how could the NPC really follow it step by step? The normal reaction should be like Makar's "send off"!

Osseriman took a deep breath and said with a look of longing, "In our elven history, there was a legendary hero named Grul. His special skill was to train mediocre elven and human archers into legendary archers with ultra-long range, super-accurate shots, and the ability to ignore obstacles, which transcended our understanding and even violated the laws of life growth. Even today, no one believes that this ability is real, and they still consider it a legend, even a myth!"

Dafei's eyebrows twitched! Phantom archers? The ones mentioned in Makar's notes? Then the Phantom Bow and Phantom Crossbow?

Osseriman continued with a look of longing, "But his achievements are recorded in history and are beyond doubt! A thousand years ago, the Hero Continent was invaded by demons, and the surface world was almost lost. The forces of justice were suppressed in the last fortress, on the verge of destruction. At this critical moment, the hero Grul emerged from the ancient forest. He overcame all obstacles, sniped the enemy leader in a million-strong army, and rescued the allied nation from a besieged city. Under his leadership, the forces of justice gathered together, forming an unstoppable steel flood, wiping out the million-strong demon army, and then retired to the ancient forest. For over a thousand years, the demon army has not launched a large-scale invasion of the surface world."

Dafei listened in amazement, "Then what?"

Osseriman shook his head and sighed, "Then, the emperor of the human Falcon Dynasty, dissatisfied with Grul's prominence, in order to establish his own savior status in the alliance, disregarded the alliance's advice and, using the pretext of pursuing the victory, sent a large army to hell to deliver the final blow. Then, there was nothing after that. The complete annihilation of this expedition led to the collapse of the Falcon Dynasty, and the current Lionheart Dynasty was established. Ah, foolish humans, their lives and dynasties are so short..."

Dafei nodded repeatedly, so this is the failed expedition to hell mentioned in the game background.

Shit! After all this talk, don't show racial superiority! Get to the point! Dafei hurriedly asked, "Then what about the hidden profession?"

Osseriman said seriously, "Before Grul retired, he left three scrolls to the elven kingdom, human kingdom, and dwarf kingdom, which are the inheritance scrolls for his profession. Only heroes recognized by the three countries can successfully complete the profession. Although I don't know what his profession is, there is one thing that is absolutely certain!"

Dafei's eyebrows twitched, "What is it?"

Osseriman said with longing, "It is absolutely very powerful!"

Shit! Of course, I know it's powerful! Are you just pulling my leg?

— System Notice: You have obtained information about the legendary hero Grul's profession inheritance.

Dafei was suddenly startled! Information appeared! So it's not just a joke, it's real? Something that can produce information is definitely super powerful!

Dafei hurriedly asked, "Then how can I take up the profession?"

Osseriman said solemnly, "As long as you successfully complete this arduous mission, you will have the qualifications to take up his profession. At the very least, you can take up two-thirds of it!"

Shit! What's the point of taking up the profession after completing the mission? I need to take it up now! But thinking about it, it makes sense. With no achievements yet, how can the system be so generous? But—

Dafei was surprised, "Can a profession be taken up in two-thirds?"

Osseriman smiled, "Of course, as long as you establish such a great achievement for the elven kingdom, the elven kingdom has no reason not to recognize you. One-third of the inheritance from the elven kingdom is guaranteed. Then, since you are human, our kingdom can negotiate with the human kingdom, and the human kingdom will certainly be proud of you, so you can get another one-third from the human kingdom. Then there are the dwarves. Dwarves are always stubborn and isolated, so you will need to do something for them. Actually, not doing it is not a big deal. Learning two-thirds of Grul's inheritance is enough to dominate... well, enough to be recorded in history!"

Dafei was shocked, "So, I have to fight in the underground with my current new player status?" That's a definite loss of 30 attribute points!

Osseriman sighed, "So, this kind of thing cannot be forced. After all, it's not easy to obtain the profession of a legendary hero. So, I personally suggest that you go back and take up the knight profession steadily."

Dafei's eyebrows twitched! Shit! The old man is advising me to be steady? After putting the legendary profession in front of me, he's advising me, a dual-specialty legendary master, to go back and take up the knight profession? I was trapped on the pirate island, steadfast and unyielding, almost regretting my life, and I struggled to level up to 25 without changing my profession. Now he wants me to go back and take up the common knight profession? Is that possible? Is that ridiculous?

In an instant, Dafei made up his mind! Go for it!

Not changing the profession, I will make up for it with the succubus barracks! Is it just 100 million? Once I dominate a region, it will be easy to come back. Who would be so foolish as to run a merchant ship? What if I fail? Hahaha, then it's my retribution for robbing others' succubi, I deserve it! It's a divine punishment! My life has already been full of failures, what's a few more?

Dafei said firmly, "Mayor, I have reserved this hero's inheritance. I hope you will take care of the succubus barracks!"

The mayor laughed heartily and patted Dafei's shoulder with great satisfaction, "Indeed, you have the courage! With this courage, you have the qualifications to inherit the hero's legacy. I will take care of this. Due to the new situation, your schedule may be delayed by two days, so there will be enough time to arrange it. Now, let's go to the Hunter's Guild to solve the Blood Eagle Flute. Our equipment is enough to crush the demon horde!"

Dafei laughed heartily. This time, I'm going all in, my life is full of no regrets!
