After leaving the room where the guild leader was, Max walked all the way to the front desk where commissions could be accepted, looking at the various tasks popping up on the screen in front of him.
His mind gradually fell into thought.
[Level 1 Task: Deal with the Magic Scale Ants emerging from a Tier 1 Nightmare Dungeon. Reward: 250,000 alliance coins, 500 points!]
[Level 2 Task: Deal with the Magic Corpse emerging from a Tier 2 Nightmare Dungeon. Reward: 500,000 alliance coins, 700 points!]
[Level 1 Task: Deal with the Plague Rats emerging from a Tier 1 Nightmare Dungeon. Reward: 750,000 alliance coins, 600 points!]
…
[Level 3 Task: Deal with the Giant Rock Demon emerging from a Tier 3 Hard Dungeon. Reward: 1.5 million alliance coins, 1,500 points!]
“It seems the level written on the task corresponds to the tier of the magical creature emerging from the dungeon to wreak havoc on society!”
“And because of the severity of the incidents and the strength of the magical creatures, the rewards obtained after completing the commissions also vary.”
While Max was searching for a commission suitable for him to accept, he was also carefully considering the criteria used to classify these tasks.
Soon, he found the basis and then began to check exactly how many points were needed to exchange for Tier 5 dungeon materials within the Black Dragon Guild.
This was in order to create the Animal Path as soon as possible.
“According to the inquiries I made along the way, although the Black Dragon Guild is the largest guild in all of Silveridge City, it doesn’t yet have the strength to clear Tier 6 dungeons.”
“In other words, relying solely on the Black Dragon Guild as a platform for now, I still cannot gather the materials to create Deva Path Pain.”
“It seems I’ll have to wait until I enter Imperial to find a way.”
“…”
Max’s current main goal was to create the Animal Path and Deva Path Pain.
After all, since they were related to his main power in the future, these two Pains were definitely the most important.
They were the primary subjects to be considered.
As it stood, to exchange for Tier 5 dungeon materials within the Black Dragon Guild, one had to accumulate 5,000 points!
In other words, under the premise of completing a certain number of tasks, once he accumulated 5,000 points, he would be able to exchange for the materials needed to make the Animal Path in the Black Dragon Guild.
In addition, all the prize money obtained by completing the commissions would also be a huge gain!
“Then the current goal is to complete commissions as quickly as possible to accumulate 5,000 points!”
“Let’s get busy now!”
Max’s current idea was very simple: accumulate 5,000 points as quickly as possible!
This was definitely beyond doubt, as it was the very reason he had come to the Black Dragon Guild.
After confirming his next plan, Max quickly began to select the commissions in front of him.
“I’ll take all the nearby Level 1 tasks, and then I can also look at the Tier 3 tasks!”
“…”
“This, this one, and this one—I’ll take them all!”
Max explained to the staff all the commissions he wanted to accept, which included many Level 1 and Level 2 tasks, and even a few Level 3 tasks.
After he stated that he wanted to accept these tasks, Max didn’t bother with the receptionist, whose face had already turned troubled.
Instead, he left without looking back.
It was still quite early.
As long as he moved a bit faster, he might be able to complete most of them before dark!
By then, he could accept even more commissions.
Thinking of this, Max left the Black Dragon Guild without stopping, caught the fastest ride, and headed toward the commission locations.
After he left, the staff member who had just been responsible for receiving Max also quickly told the others in the guild about the matter.
“What did you say?! That newcomer personally invited by the guild leader actually took on a massive number of commissions as soon as he joined?! And he even took on Level 3 commissions?! Has he gone mad?”
“Damn… I heard not long ago that he’s a Tier 1 Puppet Master. Even if he really can solo a Tier 1 Nightmare Dungeon, it’s impossible for him to go and pick a fight with those Tier 3 magical beasts right now!”
“I can’t imagine what this newcomer is thinking. Anyone with even a bit of common sense wouldn’t go to solo a Level 3 commission right now.”
“He’s crazy. No matter how strong he is, he’s still made of flesh and blood! What if a magical beast gets close to him? What is he supposed to do then?”
“Let’s tell the guild leader about this.”
…
When all the members of the Black Dragon Guild learned of Max’s next move, their faces all showed looks of doubt in unison.
Did the other party really think he was already invincible in the world?!
“No need to report to me… Since he chose the Level 3 commissions, he must have his own judgment.”
“…”
Just as the members of the Black Dragon Guild were preparing to tell the guild leader the news, Beatrice, who had been sitting in her office, also walked out.
She had just heard some rumors inside and learned that Max was about to challenge Level 3 commissions.
Her first thought was that it was absurd.
But then she felt a sense of anticipation.
She also wanted to know what kind of waves this Puppet Master, hailed as having the weakest profession template, could actually make.
Thinking of this, she also suggested that she wanted to keep track of Max’s progress in real-time.
She wanted to know just how strong the other party was and if he truly had real skill.
“Alright, is everyone just idling around with nothing to do?”
“A Tier 4 dungeon is opening in a few days. Are you all prepared?”
Beatrice spoke indifferently, her tone carrying an air that brooked no argument.
As soon as she finished speaking…
the guild members who had been huddled together chatting and laughing immediately fled the scene.
It seemed everyone was somewhat afraid of her.
In response, Beatrice only gave a cold snort and continued her work without saying anything more.
Meanwhile, about thirty minutes after Max had come out of the Black Dragon Guild, he arrived at the outer edges of Silveridge City.
This place was far from the city center, with factories and workshops visible everywhere.
It was likely the rear area of the country, a place where various lifestyle professions gathered, and also the main destination for the publication of various commissions.
Because of the lack of combat professions, every time the surrounding dungeons fell into chaos and the magical creatures within escaped, they couldn’t be dealt with immediately, leaving people helpless.
They could only seek help from guilds large and small by issuing commissions.
As soon as Max arrived at a workshop here, the boss in charge walked out directly and received Max with a beaming smile.
From their conversation, Max learned that a swarm of Magic Scale Ants that devoured rare metals had suddenly appeared at the back of their workshop.
Due to their large numbers and size, dealing with them was a massive headache.
Ordinary weapons simply couldn’t break through their hard shells.
They could only let them run rampant, devouring the rare metals that needed to be transported to the country’s front lines bit by bit.
The factory boss watched this with Pain in his heart.
In the end, he had no choice but to issue a commission to find capable people from the guilds.
And when he saw Max, who had accepted his commission and appeared to be only eighteen years old, although he didn’t say much, he more or less felt a deep sense of doubt about his “professional ability.”
After all, although this was labeled as a Level 1 task on his end, the creatures causing trouble weren’t magical creatures from a simple dungeon, but from a Nightmare Dungeon!
A Nightmare Dungeon alone was a height that not all Tier 1 Professionals could reach.
He somewhat suspected that Max, who had accepted the commission, wouldn’t be able to solve his urgent problem and would instead delay the arrival of someone who actually could.
But at this point, no matter how reluctant he was, there was nothing he could do but wait silently for the final result.
“The Magic Scale Ants are behind the workshop, right? The reward for completing the task is 250,000 alliance coins and 500 points.”
“The difficulty belongs to a Tier 1 Nightmare Dungeon, which is considered very simple.”
After listening to the factory boss’s introduction, Max quickly realized the difficulty of this commission and then followed him to the location where the Magic Scale Ants had appeared.
Soon, Max was led to a large open space in the back, looking at the numerous black tentacles poking out from the soil, each about a meter long.
With just one look, Max understood that these were all Magic Scale Ants hidden in the soil, gnawing on various ores and stones produced on the surface.
Because they ate anything and everything, and were numerous and difficult to clear…
they caused anyone who accepted this commission a huge headache.
After bidding farewell to the factory boss, Max walked into the depths alone to face the Magic Scale Ants.
“…”
“Magic Scale Ants. Their body length doesn’t seem to exceed one meter, and their four-dimensional attributes shouldn’t be as strong as the Cat Demons I encountered in the previous dungeon!”
“There are quite a lot of them, but I have a way to handle them efficiently.”
Max first released the Asura Path, Hell Path, and Human Path Pains hidden in his Intermediate Storage Ring, and then controlled them to begin a large-scale clearing of the surrounding ground. Follow the newest chapters on g.com.
Relying on their ultra-high four-dimensional attributes and unparalleled coordination, they eliminated many Magic Scale Ants as soon as they struck, but Max was still very dissatisfied with this.
He directly took control of the Asura Path and performed a Human Body Modification on it.
Soon, the skull on its head opened directly, revealing a circular cannon port, and then the flesh and blood on its back also began to condense, quickly forming a huge missile.
As energy began to gather at the top, a laser so terrifying that eyes couldn’t look directly at it suddenly began to sweep across the surroundings.
Due to extremely high control and intensity, the laser released by the Asura Path only attacked the Magic Scale Ants themselves and did not affect the surrounding ores.
As a result, only the magical creatures suffered casualties, and the factory boss did not suffer much loss.
It could be said that it met the requirements of the commission almost perfectly and even exceeded expectations.
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully killing a Magic Scale Ant, gaining 50 experience points!]

…
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for successfully killing a Magic Scale Ant, gaining 50 experience points!]
Watching the Asura Path indiscriminately attacking all the Magic Scale Ants, Max, standing to the side, felt a wave of satisfaction as he saw the system experience prompts appearing before him.
With so many Magic Scale Ants, as long as they were all killed, he would definitely gain a lot of experience points, and the corpses of the magical creatures could also be exchanged for materials to be sold in the market.
That could also be exchanged for a significant amount of money!
Thinking of this, Max began to feel happy.
It was clear that his choice to join the guild and accept commissions was definitely the optimal solution!
If he had still chosen to go through Tier 1 and Tier 2 dungeons now, it would have been impossible to get so much profit in such a short time!
“Done!”
After about ten minutes of work, all the Magic Scale Ants that had appeared behind the workshop had been completely eliminated, and this wasn’t just based on a simple guess, but on evidence!
Through the Rinnegan’s innate ability, Max could clearly see that there were no more demonic energy fluctuations in the vicinity.
In other words, all the creatures capable of generating demonic energy here had been wiped out, and this was all thanks to Max.
After finishing all this…
Max chose to walk out of there, and after arriving at the factory boss’s side, he spoke.
“They’ve all been eliminated. Just help me cancel the task!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Max left the place and began walking toward the next location.
To be honest, most of the tasks he had accepted today were near the outskirts of Silveridge City.
In other words, it wouldn’t take Max much time to reach the commission locations.
“Finished?! You’ve got to be kidding me. It’s been less than ten minutes, and all the Magic Scale Ants are gone!”
“You’re not here to make fun of me, are you?”
When the factory boss heard Max say that he had completely finished this commission, deep doubts immediately arose in his heart.
You’ve got to be kidding.
Cleaning up no fewer than a hundred Magic Scale Ants in less than ten minutes?!
Even a senior guild member wouldn’t be able to do that, right?
Could that very youthful-looking Max really do it?
With a heart full of doubt, the factory boss picked up his binoculars and looked toward the place where the Magic Scale Ants had gathered, and what he saw immediately gave him a fright.
He saw that the Magic Scale Ants, which had originally been hidden everywhere in the soil, had all been blasted out, and most of them were a mangled mess of flesh, dead as could be.
But what was incredibly strange was…
the only places that had sustained damage were where the Magic Scale Ants were located.
Other than that, no other minerals or stones were damaged.
To be able to achieve this step…
perhaps even Tier 2 or Tier 3 ability users would be completely unable to do it.
Let alone that Max, who just now looked like he wasn’t even as old as his own son.
Thinking back, at that age, he had only just completed his class change…
he was truly a formidable youth!
