War Merit Missions
The next two tests were much simpler, without the stringent requirements of the first test.
In the subsequent anti-interference test, you were asked to choose three different types of spells and cast them according to the signals during the test.
During the test, once you receive the signal, there may be strong light or loud noise interference that may disrupt your spellcasting.
Overall, however, this test is not difficult.
Fran passed the test with ease, thanks to her hard-earned physical strength, which allowed her to easily resist interference.
Following her, Dylan nearly failed to cast her spell, but ultimately succeeded.
Nora, like Fran, passed the test with ease, as if the interference had no effect on her at all.
However, when it came to the remaining two mages, something went wrong.
One was almost completely unable to resist interference; it canceled the guidance almost as soon as the interference appeared.
Cole's situation was somewhat unusual; according to Fran's guess, it seemed that he had some modified organ that made him extremely insensitive to the signals of those spells.
This resulted in him failing the test because, although the interference had no effect on him, he did not cast the spell according to the specified signal.
The subsequent attack target test required hitting a specific target among a group of moving targets, while avoiding hitting other targets.
Fran completed the test with great ease; her superior physical abilities were no joke, and her hand-eye coordination naturally far surpassed that of ordinary mages.
Normally, while First Order Mage can accurately identify a specific target from a group of moving targets, their spell targeting is not fast enough.
This meant that although the mages could see the target, they simply couldn't hit it.
After numerous attempts, Dylan failed again, only managing to get a little bit over the obstacle.
To Fran's surprise, Cole made only a few minor adjustments and easily passed the test.
Nora and the remaining mage failed very easily, and both of them had equally poor aim, hitting the wrong targets many times.
After the tests were over, everyone looked at Fran with disbelief. Only Fran had passed all three tests with ease, while the others needed to go back and reflect.
Even Zane looked on in amazement. He hadn't expected that a mage could pass all three tests without any training and do so with such ease.
Regardless, Fran passed all three tests, and amidst the envious gazes of the remaining four mages, she earned the qualification to be listed as a full member.
Zane led her to a room where she registered, and then told her that she could come here tomorrow to become a Battle Mage.
The next day, Fran looked at the dozen or so sticky notes hanging on the wall, each detailing the tasks performed and the payment received.
The Northern Lands Society's Battle Mage Corps system is actually not complicated; it only requires each Battle Mage to earn enough Battle Merit each month.
If the goal is not achieved within three months, the player will be kicked out of the Battle Mage Corps.
This goal is easy to achieve. Generally speaking, you just need to come here for six days each month, pick up a guard mission, and do guard duty at the designated location for a few days to complete it.
Furthermore, the exchange of Battle Merit has undergone many special designs. It was specially designed that six days of defense Battle Merit, which would take several months to exchange for a spell.
Of course, the rewards for Battle Merit merits are not limited to these. They can also be exchanged for a lot of precious materials and some finished equipment, or the qualification to customize equipment. These things are extremely difficult to obtain outside the world.
But Fran's thoughts were not what the normal mages who came here would have thought.
Most of the monks who come here treat their work here as a part-time job.
The Battle Merit earned here can be exchanged for some valuable materials, which is exactly what they want; some mages come here purely to hone their combat skills.
Fran arrived at the place where mages who made a living as Battle Mage lived; only here could one earn a lot of Battle Merit merits from missions.
The tasks here are also divided into many types, but they can also be categorized into two types.
One is assigning tasks, which are usually assigned to the core members of the Battle Mage Corps. These people are usually summoned together for any major event, and the rewards for doing so are the most generous.
Secondly, there are the quests that Fran is currently accepting. All members can accept them themselves, and the quest rewards are listed above.
This is another revenue model for the Northern Lands Society: providing combat services to other surrounding areas to earn money.
In the Northern Territory, the Northern Lands Society was just a small place in the Northern Territory. After the Northern Lands Society replaced the local lord, the surrounding lands were left untouched.
The Northern Lands Society had no interest in ruling these lands, so despite their powerful armed forces, they had no designs on the surrounding territories.
In order to establish the Battle Mage Corps, they even started charging commissions to give their own mages the opportunity to fight.
Just like the name suggests, Battle Mage, you have to fight, and only through long-term battles can you truly 'become' a Battle Mage.
The Northern Territory lacks the harsh environment of other the Alliance locations, making it largely unsuitable for large-scale operations. Therefore, the mages are forced to operate in smaller groups, taking on these missions to hone their skills.
"Are you choosing a task?"
As Fran was contemplating which mission to choose, a mage in a grey robe interrupted her.
"Yes," she replied.
The other person smiled, then pointed to the note above and said:
"I suggest you choose that one. It's the task of clearing the mines that the lord of Winter Bear Territory proposed to us. Because the lord cannot leave his territory, he asked us for help."
"As far as I know, it was a First Order Undead, do you understand?"
Fran took the note and examined it closely, discovering that it did indeed mention the possibility of Undead.
She calculated that the journey to that place would take about five days, so she would be able to return just in time for the publication of her two Paper.
"Okay, thank you for your recommendation."
"No need to thank me, we are all mages, it is only right for our companion to do this." The mage's smile remained warm, but it faded after Fran had left.
