Chapter 81: Clean Sky Commission

"I heard that we're gathering our forces to advance to the Biochemical Research Institute on Merlin Avenue. The city's defense forces seem to be mobilizing too. An infantry regiment has already assembled at the edge of Merlin Avenue. They will be responsible for clearing out large groups of semi-mechanical troops. We will focus on individual stronger monsters and be responsible for assaulting the research institute." After hearing Bandley's explanation, Li Wei became more certain.

It was expected that they would take action at the source of this semi-mechanical uprising.

As long as they dealt with the ongoing problem of semi-mechanical monsters continuously pouring out, and then swept away a few large groups of semi-mechanical monsters, the remaining scattered monsters would be minor issues. With time passing, it should only be a matter of time before the reconstruction of Merlin Avenue and the Clover Community could begin.

In short, the battle to attack Merlin Community and destroy the Blackbird Heavy Industries' biochemical research center was a decisive battle. And in this decisive battle, there would undoubtedly be quite a few opportunities.

"You're definitely going, right?" Cai Yutong asked Li Wei, but she seemed very sure.

She already knew Li Wei well and felt that he would never miss such an opportunity.

"Of course," Li Wei didn't disappoint her. He asked, "When does it start?"

"I heard that a large number of assault missions will be issued soon. Everyone is waiting here now."

"I see." Li Wei nodded, indicating he understood.

Subsequently, as they chatted, they waited for the time to pass. They didn't have to wait too long. When the clock struck half-past nine, the mission board in the guild hall changed.

Several staff members squeezed through the crowd and changed the contents of the notice board.

Displayed before the hunters was a list of missions marked with different levels.

"It's starting!" Cai Yutong said excitedly. "Let's go, let's quickly choose a mission!"

She pulled Li Wei and squeezed into the crowd. The various tasks on the mission board included all the preliminary strategic objectives for attacking the research center.

Cai Yutong saw the first mission on the board and felt a little excited. She said, "Should we join the infantry regiment of the city's defense forces? There's no limit to the number of people, and we'll be responsible for clearing out high-level monsters encountered by the regiment. The rewards are very good, it's considered a collective A-level mission, and additional rewards are given based on the threat level of the monsters killed during the mission."

"No," Li Wei gave his answer succinctly.

Just arrived, Bandley also agreed with Li Wei's opinion. He said, "This type of mission that seems to have no limit on the number of people and has relatively generous rewards will definitely have many participants. No matter how high the reward is, with more people, the amount each person receives will be greatly reduced. Moreover, dealing with the city's defense forces... believe me, it's a very uncomfortable thing."

"What about this one? Participate in the establishment of the outpost, protect the hired workers and military supplies until the outpost is completed."

"Also no." Li Wei refused again.

Bandley explained from the side, "This type of mission takes a long time, and the location is more towards the rear. If we participate, once there's a good opportunity at the front line, we'll probably miss it."

"Okay..." After being vetoed twice in a row, Cai Yutong didn't feel discouraged. The opinions of Li Wei and Bandley sounded very reasonable, and they needed to choose a more reliable mission.

Not only Cai Yutong was looking, but Li Wei's gaze had also been fixed on the mission board. If he didn't find anything satisfactory, he looked at the next one.

Their actions were relatively slow. By now, three sides of the bulletin board had been read, and at least three-quarters of the hunters in the hall had left. Li Wei finally found the mission he wanted.

"Mantening B Block Clean Sky Commission: Go to 396 Merlin Avenue, Mantening Center, Block B, and ensure that there are no threats inside. Mission Level: B, recommended for a team of four to seven people."

"How about this mission?" Li Wei asked his teammates behind him.

"Isn't the risk a bit too high?" Qian Long gave his opinion.

A B-level mission, with their current five-person team strength, would already have considerable pressure. Bandley had already opened his genetic lock for some time, with strong strength, and was about to break through to the next level soon. But apart from Bandley, their team's combat power was not so strong. Qian Long had only opened his first genetic lock for a little over three months; Wells had just broken through yesterday; Cai Yutong and Li Wei were still at the limit level.

A B-level mission was undoubtedly a great challenge for them.

But that's not all.

In Qian Long's impression, the Clean Sky Commission was not easy. To ensure that there were no living monsters within a certain area, this requirement itself was very strict. No one knew what the situation at the mission location was, which added a lot of variables.

A slightly higher difficulty level and a complex mission type made the cautious Qian Long feel that the risk was very high.

Li Wei agreed with Qian Long's judgment. "Indeed, this mission is not easy. If something unexpected happens, there is a high possibility of casualties among us, or even the entire team could be wiped out. However, although the risk is high, the rewards will also be great. The reward for this B-level mission is almost double that of a normal B-level mission, and if we kill monsters at the Clean Sky mission site, the overall reward could exceed that of a B+ level mission."

Li Wei was speaking the truth.

At this moment, the faces of the five of them became very serious. For them, it was a difficult choice: to take greater risks for greater rewards, or to choose a safer mission?

"If we are to do this mission, all five of us must work together. So, I'd like to hear everyone's opinions. Everyone think about it, and then raise your hand to vote."
