Tasks

Inside the Logistics Hall, He Zudao held no authority. He merely introduced Jiang Ping'an to the various tasks and allowed him to choose one freely.

"You needn't look at Magnetic Ore Vein mining or Myriad Gu Grotto array-material gathering," He Zudao said. "Magnetic Ore Vein mining means entering the Black Wind Mine to dig ore.
