Chapter 21 – Spider Queen
In the job training center, the healer instructor stood at the same spot as before, with her long hair drifting in the wind. When she saw me walking up, she immediately showed a sweet smile, "Oh, young healer, you have grown quite strong now. Would you like to get promoted?"
Well then, this NPC was quite observant!
I nodded, "Yes teacher, I would like to get promoted!"
"Okay!"
The instructor smiled and stretched her hand forward, "First, you must pay me a processing fee of 10 silver coins before I can start your promotion mission!"
"Okay...." I gave out 10 silvers. After all, I no longer had a lack of money!
The instructor stretched her neck looking at me with an amused expression, "Good. If you want to become a real healer, you must complete this test. Come. This is a sheet of sheepskin. If you enter the graveyard at the south of the city, you will find a spider's cave there. Find the gravestone at the deepest part of the cave and jot down the text written on the gravestone. That is your mission. But be careful, there are many dangers inside the spider cave. You may die a very painful death!"
My whole body trembled a bit. But the mission didn't care if people were willing to do it or not, it was forced on you...
System Notification: You received the training mission [The gravestone text in the Spider Cave]! (Mission difficulty: Level C)
Mission Description: Enter the spider cave and jot down the text found from the gravestone deep inside the cave. You are not allowed to form teams. If a player forms a team, or accepts healing from other players, then the mission will instantly fail. At that, you will need to wait another 72 hours before re-applying for the mission!
......
My god, this was quite harsh. I was neither allowed to team up nor accept any help from other players! Qing Qian said she would help me out, but she probably didn't know about this requirement huh?
Walking out the door and opening the player lists, I took a look at the list of healers in Ba Huang City. The highest level for healers was level 23, but they were all trainee healers. None of them had been promoted! Well of course, this quest was really harsh and it made absolutely zero sense. Clearing a level C mission was impossible for a sole healer. But for me, the healer swordsman who could attack and heal simultaneously, this should be a piece of cake.
In the entirety of Ba Huang City, there were over 1000 healers who were over level 20, but none of them had been successfully promoted. That spoke for itself. I guessed most of the healers' hearts had been broken at the impossibility of completing the quest....
Well, taking my Bramble Thorn Sword, I hummed a song, and left Ba Huang City, heading straight towards the graveyard at the south. The minimap even recorded the location of the spider cave. This would be a piece of cake. But at this time, I suddenly heard a system alarm——
"Ding!"

......
Checking my bank account, yep, it seemed my total balance was over 10,000 Yuan. I was rich baby~
Night quickly fell while I traveled to the graveyard in the south. Near the graveyard, a few soldiers from Ba Huang City seemed to be guarding the graveyard. They were all holding long spears and looking at the crows on the trees. They seemed to be chatting about something. Hm, since there were NPCs, I wonder if there were any simple quests for me. Since I was out here already, I might as well kill a few extra monsters.
