The next second, the young man immediately carried the child and walked toward the next street.
Half a minute later, he returned to the house with a happy expression. "Thank you, little brother. If it wasn't for you, I'm afraid this child wouldn't have survived."
Receiving the gratitude of this young man, who was a few years older than him, Su Ce was at a loss.
"Are you still planning to go to other places to rescue people? I'll go with you," he asked subconsciously.
Wiping his hands that were covered in mud, the young man smiled and said, "There's no need. We're almost done with the rescue. Although there was no sign of the tsunami this time, fortunately, it wasn't too big. It only affected buildings a few hundred meters inland from the coast.
"I'm almost out of mana. I have to go back and rest."
Su Ce had a very good impression of this young man, who had risked his life to save people without caring about the cost, so he immediately extended an invitation. "That's good. I'm planning to take a car to the West Sea commercial district. If it's on the way, let's go together."
Taking off his muddy robe and revealing his usual clothes, the young man smiled and agreed. "Alright. My guild isn't far from the West Sea commercial district."
"Guild? Brother, which guild are you in?"
"Just call me Zhou Qi. I'll explain to you when we get in the car."
The two of them arrived at a nearby street that was unaffected by the tsunami.
Soon, they got into a taxi.
As soon as they got into the taxi, Zhou Qi started introducing information about his guild to his new friend. "The guild I'm in is currently the number one guild in Bo'an City, Deep Blue. Most of the people in the guild are water-related Professionals like me.
"Our Deep Blue Guild has been established for more than ten years, and the powerful members have all reached Rank 2."
Zhou Qi didn't forget to extend an olive branch to Su Ce either.
"The guild is one of the most worthwhile organizations to join after Professionals leave the academy. Not only will you obtain unexpected benefits by joining the guild, but even if you jump ship in the future, with Deep Blue's reputation as the number one local guild, your salary and benefits will increase significantly."
Looking at how Zhou Qi was sparing no effort, Su Ce felt a little helpless. "Brother Zhou, thank you for your approval. I've long heard of your guild, but I'm used to being idle. I'm not ready to join a guild yet, so…"
He spread his hands and explained his views and current situation.
Zhou Qi felt very regretful about this.
Along the way, the two of them chatted happily.
Whether it was insights into each class or knowledge of combat theory, the two of them had a very similar understanding. They wished they had met sooner.
After a short while, the taxi arrived at the West Sea commercial district.
After bidding farewell to Zhou Qi, Su Ce immediately got out of the taxi and walked toward the Class Temple.
Looking at Su Ce's gradually disappearing back, Zhou Qi sighed.
The young man who had chatted with him not only possessed a rare and precious spirit of modesty, but he also had a very thorough understanding of various classes and combat experience.
Most importantly, Su Ce was just like him. He could save people without caring about the consequences. Such a quality was really rare nowadays!
The taxi started and quickly left with the regretful Zhou Qi. It's a pity I gave birth to a son. Otherwise, I would have wanted to marry my daughter to him.
…
On the other side, Su Ce returned to the Class Temple, opened the door, and walked in.
Perhaps because it was almost evening, there were only a dozen or so people on the first floor of the Class Temple, including the staff.
Seeing someone come in, the receptionist who had received Su Ce earlier immediately trotted over.
Looking at the familiar face in front of her, the receptionist was a little surprised. "Ah… It's you."
Su Ce had clearly left for less than ten hours. Why was he back?
Could he have failed the quest? Was the serene rosewood soaked in water?
Just as she was thinking about how to comfort him, the young man took out a light gray certificate from his inventory.
"This…" Her pupils constricted slightly, and the young lady subconsciously took a step back, her expression filled with disbelief.
Su Ce waved the certificate in his hand and said with a smile, "Miss, I'm back after completing the quest. Please bring me to complete the Class Advancement Ceremony!"
Although this quest had been a little bumpy, his gains were very rich.
Not only had he wiped out almost a hundred pirates, but he had even contracted a dragon.
Equipment, potions, materials, and so on filled his inventory.
It was a pity that the treasures in the ships that the pirates had plundered had all sunk into the sea and he hadn't had time to search for time.
"Uh… okay." The young lady in front of him finally reacted.
Even though she didn't believe that the young man could complete the Cape of Storms quest in ten hours, the evidence was right in front of her, so she had no choice but to believe it. "Sir, please come with me."
Following the receptionist, Su Ce successfully passed through the few Professionals in charge of security by the stairs and arrived at the room on the second floor where the ceremony was conducted.
The room on the second floor was very spacious.
The decorations and style were basically the same as downstairs.
It was very different from modern culture.
The room was surrounded by murals, and in the middle of the room was a magic circle.
At this moment, two Professionals in white robes were sitting on a sofa, reading holy books.
The young lady handed the class advancement certificate over respectfully and said nervously, "Temple Head, this gentleman has completed the class advancement quest 'the Cape of Storms'. Here is the class advancement certificate."
Taking off his glasses, one of the older Professionals with graying temples immediately stood up. "Oh… It looks like someone has finally completed the Cape of Storms quest that has been entrusted for more than ten days."
He looked at the young man standing at the side. "Alright, being able to complete this quest is enough to prove that his strength is not bad.
"Old buddy, let's get started."
Soon, the two Priests were ready.
They each held a holy book in their hands and let Su Ce stand on the Class Advancement Platform to wait for the ceremony to begin.
As the chanting of the two Priests became louder and louder, the magic circle of the Class Advancement Ceremony gradually lit up.
Specks of light emerged from the magic circle and gradually merged into Su Ce, who was standing upright in the center.
This feeling was warm and made him somewhat tense.
Then the chanting of the two Priests increased in speed, sounding like a mystical scripture that was difficult to understand.
The specks of light almost covered Su Ce's entire body, and the surging energy was moving like a phoenix that was about to awaken.
The entire advancement ceremony lasted for nearly ten minutes.
During this period of time, in addition to the warmth he felt at the beginning, Su Ce also felt that the flesh and blood in his body seemed to have changed.
It became more compact and contained boundless power.
Boom!
The magic circle suddenly emitted a resplendent light. At the same time, the two Priests immediately cast the unique class advancement spell.
The true critical moment only lasted for a few seconds!
For a moment, Su Ce was in a daze, as if his consciousness had been stripped away. When he woke up again, the Class Advancement Ceremony had already finished.
