Chapter 15 Demon Hunter Association!
The Demon Hunter Association Center in Dusk Valley City is a complex building covering an area of approximately 40,000 square meters.
With its eight floors and a height of over fifty meters, it stands out among the many buildings in Shangping District.
The black exterior walls give the association center a solemn and dignified appearance.
Perhaps because it was approaching night, there were quite a few witchers coming and going from the association.
Most of them are Iron-level Witchers, with the occasional Bronze-level Witcher.
As Shen Mo approached, he overheard the crowd talking mostly about the demonic tide in the south.
It turns out that a large number of monsters have already infiltrated the southern wasteland.
Among them are many second- and third-tier magical beasts.
The Demon Hunter Association has issued various missions.
The rewards for tasks undertaken during such special periods are often quite generous.
This attracted a large number of witchers to come and choose and accept missions...
"In that case, my intelligence must be valuable."
Thinking of the receipt Li Bin had given him, Shen Mo felt a surge of warmth and walked into the Demon Hunter Association.
The service hall is on the first floor.
In the middle are four huge LCD screens, displaying task information.

......
Shen Mo glanced at the tasks on the LCD screen.
As expected, most of them were concentrated in the south of Dusk Valley City and were related to the current demonic tide.
Although the assessment said it was a small-scale demonic surge that would not affect Dusk Valley City.
However, the Demon Tide inherently contains uncertainties.
Once discovered, it must be suppressed to a controllable extent as quickly as possible using the most appropriate means.
This is when the importance of the Demon Hunter Association becomes apparent.
When the demonic tide breaks out, it is difficult for ordinary people to stay in the wasteland for an extended period of time.
Only those who have undergone magical enhancement can take the initiative to attack.
And most of these people are witchers.
It exists not only in the military and other groups.
However, their numbers are small, and most of them are of average strength.
There is no consensus on the reasons for this.
Most people believe it's because witchers spend so much time in areas teeming with magic...
In fact, even so, the number of Witchers is not large.
The city of Mugu and the surrounding fortresses have a population of approximately 400,000 to 500,000.
However, there are still fewer than 10,000 people with Witcher licenses.
Of these 10,000 witchers, eight or nine out of ten are Black Iron level witchers.
Furthermore, among the largest group of Black Iron-level Witchers, at least one-third have never undergone an Ascension.
They are just mediocre people who obtained their demon hunter licenses by taking advantage of loopholes or by sheer luck!
The number of people only gradually increased after the Demon Hunter Association was established.
The reason why witchers cannot dominate human society is not only because firearms are still effective in the Pure Land, but also because of their sheer numbers...
Arrived at the Witcher registration window.
Behind the glass was a girl with a ponytail, wearing an association uniform, who was writing something with her head down.
Noticing someone approaching, she immediately looked up, revealing a handsome face.
Upon seeing Shen Mo, he paused for a moment, then smiled after a brief pause:
"Are you here to hand in the Black Iron Trial Certificate?"
The girl didn't know Shen Mo, but she remembered him and knew that he had come to her to receive a mission before...
Shen Mo nodded and handed over his identification with a smile.
"Just a moment!"
The girl smiled as she accepted Shen Mo's identification documents.
They were making a lot of noise and clattering sounds while working behind the counter.
After a moment, he looked up and said:
Give me the trial certificate.
Upon hearing this, Shen Mo took out the Black Iron Jade and the Demon Corpse Powder and handed them over through the small window.
"Did you hunt this alone?"
The girl asked casually, but her eyes were fixed on the counter.
"Yes," Shen Mo nodded.
"That's amazing."
The girl gave a thumbs-up, but her eyes remained fixed on the counter as she continued to ask:
"How did you do that?"
Seeing this, Shen Mo knew perfectly well that this was a test to see if he was lying.
He then briefly recounted his black iron trial process.
"You said you discovered traces of the beast tide to the south?"
The girl suddenly looked up, her expression surprised.
"Yes."
Shen Mo took out the note Li Bin had given him, handed it through the window, and asked:
"I heard there's a reward?"
The girl looked at the receipt, then handed it back to Shen Mo, saying:
"I don't have that authority. You need to go to the window that starts with the letter C to verify and claim it."
Shen Mo nodded to indicate that he understood.
The girl lowered her head and continued doing her work.
Meanwhile, he chatted with Shen Mo in a disjointed manner.
A few minutes later, the girl handed over Shen Mo's identification and two documents.
One of them is proof that Shen Mo completed the Black Iron Trial.
The other one is a "medical examination report".
However, the medical examination was conducted at the Holy Church.
"I've scheduled an expert evaluation for you for 9 a.m. tomorrow."
You'd better go to the church tonight for a holy bath.
Tomorrow, bring your Black Iron Trial Certificate and Holy Bath Report to the glass room 316 on the third floor for expert evaluation. Don't be late!
If there are no problems.
You'll receive your Witcher's License and Black Iron Badge by noon tomorrow!
"Thanks!"
Shen Mo took the items and thanked him.
Just as I was about to leave, I suddenly remembered something.
"I have another question to ask you."
Shen Mo took out Li Yunpeng's wallet and handed it through the window, saying:
"Could you please help us contact this person's family and return these belongings to them...?"
Upon hearing this, the girl opened her wallet.
After a moment, he raised his head and looked at Shen Mo with a complicated expression.
Photos, rings, badges, licenses... and those Alliance coins that weren't taken a single cent.
This gave the girl a strange feeling.
"I'm sorry, I can't help you."
The girl handed the wallet back with both hands and looked at Shen Mo earnestly:
"Please wait a moment while I inquire about how to proceed."
After saying that, the girl started making a phone call.
After a while, he hung up the phone, a relieved expression on his face, stood up, and smiled at Shen Mo:
"I'll take you to Director Liu."
