I washed up with some water and soon received a message from An Yi.
[Private] Sword Hero: Come to the meeting room.
"Ok?"
Hilo's first reaction was confusion.
Why would you specifically message me privately to ask me to go there?
She understood the next moment.
That's right! They're definitely going to give me a special mission!
They probably want to team up with me to kill that Goblin King's Servant!
Hilo crossed his arms and nodded.
Hmm, I never thought that swordsman would ask me to cooperate!
It seems he does acknowledge my abilities!
Although he has never won a one-on-one match against An Yi.
Thinking of this, Shiloh felt a surge of pride!
……
"Mr. An Yi actually asked me to go to the conference room via a private channel...?!"
Xislinn lay on the bed clutching the blanket, lost in thought for a while, then immediately sat up.
Now is not the time to overthink!
Hurry up and change your clothes and go over there!
"Mr. An Yi, is there some special task you'd like to assign me...?"
Sislin combed her hair in front of the mirror and straightened her white robe. The green cross embroidered on the chest of the white robe indicated that she was a support-type hero with healing abilities.
Ah!
Let's go out!
"Click."
As soon as I opened the door, the sound of the door opening next to me came from one after the other, and they both opened within two seconds.
Airo and Sephi also came out of the room.
The three of them looked at each other.
"To the conference room?" Saifei looked up at the two and asked.
"Yes, we received Mr. Carl's message." Airo nodded as well.
Xislinn's smile froze instantly: "Ah, um... it's perfect that we can go together."
So it wasn't just me who was invited?!
"Let's go." Jiu
"Wearing a white combat suit with white leather stitching on the shoulders, Sephiroth spoke in a low voice."
The standard attire for defensive heroes consists of two leather shoulder pads sewn onto their shoulders. (Zero)
Airo nodded; his robes bore a flame embroidered on the left chest, indicating he was a warrior who wielded fire elemental skills.
As the three of them approached the conference room, they heard Shiloh shout—
"Why are there so many people?!"
"..." Hissline couldn't help but twitch her lips.
So, my sister and I think the same way?
Everyone thought An Yi had given them some special mission, but when they arrived at the scene, they found out that he had just contacted them by bypassing the public channel.
At first glance, it seems to be the same as yesterday's meeting, which invited adventurers of level 30 and above.
Some people looked refreshed and energetic, while others looked somewhat listless. This is the difference between those who rested and those who didn't.
Felia was also present, but she quickly realized that there were actually fewer people than yesterday.
Because she remembered yesterday's information, she noticed that many people had been summoned to the scene, with only a few support-type heroes absent.
In addition, there was one more person, a little girl, whom she didn't recognize because the other person wasn't on the list of those to be challenged.
In the middle of the spacious conference room, the original podium was moved to the side and replaced with a table.
A square object, which looked quite large, was covered with a white cloth on the table. It resembled a big box.
Although everyone was curious about what it was, they weren't children, so no one touched it or asked An Yi.
"What is this?"
Only Shiloh casually walked up and asked.
"I'll let you know when everyone's here," Annie said.
Shiloh: "Tch! Stingy!"
Lycorina grinned from the side.
Because the exact same conversation just happened.
She was also curious about what was in the box!
Soon, the heroes entered the conference room one after another.
An Yi looked around to confirm that the number of people was correct, and nodded slightly: "Yes, everyone is here."
The goblins haven't made a move all night. If I'm not mistaken, they'll probably attack in the morning or around noon.
In their eyes, we would have a sleepless night, and by the time the day came, we would be exhausted and let our guard down.
But what they didn't expect was that some of us had already rested.
Upon hearing this, the brave warriors, who had spent the previous night in fear, felt an overwhelming sense of regret.
Why not listen to the swordsman?
Seeing those spirited warriors, they looked incredibly weak.
Although heroes can go without rest or sleep, their period of time was not just about not sleeping; they also suffered from several hours of mental exhaustion.
The result of this internal strife was that they were all frowning with tension, and while nothing happened overnight, they had exhausted most of their energy.
If possible, they would even like to catch up on a nap for an hour or two, or even just a few tens of minutes.
An Yi continued, "Those present are all warriors above level 30, and they are the main force in this defensive battle."
Therefore, our health, stamina, and mana are all crucial.
Compared to other heroes, we are the ones who cannot afford to fall.
So, I commissioned the Food Warrior to make a dish for us.
A type of food that can instantly restore us from a near-death state to our peak condition.
Bang!
An Yi yanked the white cloth off the table.
A square wooden box appeared on the table, containing wads of oil paper, the contents of which were unknown.
“Now you can tell me what this is, right?” Shiloh asked.
An Yi picked up one of the oiled paper balls and unfolded the oiled paper.
In the dim light, it was impossible to see what it was, but it looked like a...ball?
"What is this? Food? Can we eat it?" Hilo was taken aback.
“It’s edible!”
Noel, who had regained some of her magic, jumped out from the side.
"This is a meatball made from minced meat!"
"After steaming, wrap it in parchment paper so it's easy for everyone to carry around!" Noel exclaimed excitedly.
"Can I have one?!" Lycorina asked excitedly, standing up to take it from An's hand.
"No."
"no!"
Annie and Noel spoke in unison.
Lycorina froze, withdrawing her hand: "This is the first time I've heard of this method. It would be great to try it..."
An Yi shook her head: "As I just said, this is not just food, it's something that can save your life."
If I survive, I'll cook for you no matter how much food you need. Just bear with it for now.
A look of admiration flashed in Noel's eyes.
As expected of the Sword Hero! So gentle to his teammates!!
Hilo: "Save our lives? This thing can save our lives?"
“Of course!” Noel proudly puffed out her chest. “This is food I made with all my magic!”
Not only can it increase your strength, speed, defense, and magic power, it can also instantly restore your health, magic power, and stamina to full!
Even the strongest hero, the Sword Hero, says that these meatballs are your second life!
Unfortunately, this is all the magic I have left.
Noel's words shocked everyone present.
It increases attributes and also fully restores all stats?!
The first reaction of all the heroes was—
incredible!
Especially Lycorina!
