If the mastermind is a top noble, then Chu Yan will look for the church or the Sanctuary of Discipline.

If the mastermind is from the Taboo Organization, the worst that can happen is that we just have to spend some time waiting for the next Taboo Market and find an assassin there to assassinate him at a high price.

By the way, Princess Melissa seemed to have looked for assassins from the Taboo Organization. If Chu Yan couldn’t find the location of the Yanxia Market, he could still try to ask her.

In short, as long as the mastermind is a well-known figure, he will definitely not be able to escape, but he is a nobody.

Therefore, if any of those adventurers had really leaked the news, we should also investigate their background and eliminate as many black sheep as possible.

Thinking of this, Chu Yan's gaze fell on the knight girl again. She had a beautiful appearance, but her temperament did not have the sense of distance that came with her noble birth. She was rather simple and gentle, just a little awkward occasionally.

At this time, she would take a few steps and check if there was any spoils missing from the sack. Her nervous look was very interesting, as if if one item was missing, she would become the sinner of the team.

By that time, she will still have to pay out money to make up for the loss. Whether she can afford it is a big problem!

After all, the amount of gold coins in Shanoya's hands has never reached the unit of "thousand", and "half a thousand" is a bit far away.

It was not until she arrived at the Adventurer's Guild and stuffed the big sack into Miss Milanqi's hands that she felt relieved and her tense nerves were finally able to relax.

The adventurers in the guild hall initially thought that the female knight was carrying a sack of rags.

As a result, they were surprised to see that the moment the elf lady opened the sack, her pretty face was illuminated by the light of gold and jewelry. Only then did they realize that there was something extraordinary inside!

Chu Yan did not take the spoils of war seriously and said:

"Ms. Milanqi, can you help me contact President Zhilan?"

Milanqi was stunned for a moment, looking a little embarrassed, and said:

"Yes, is it urgent? The president just changed into her dress this morning and went back to the family..."

Chu Yan was silent for a moment, said sorry in his heart, and demanded firmly:

"Regarding the inside story of the Rat Gang and the Monster Ruins, I must talk to President Zhilan in person. Although I feel very sorry for her, please help me get her to come back!"

However, Chu Yan didn't want to act like a big shot and have everyone revolve around him. He had to turn back halfway through the journey to take care of him. He had to make the importance of the matter clear.

"I wiped out the Rat Gang. Someone secretly instigated them to act, and I kept a leader as a prisoner. Also, there was a not-so-good discovery in the monster ruins. It's a serious matter, and it's not an exaggeration."

Chu Yan only gave a general idea of ​​what happened and Milanqi was stunned.

He went to the Tower of Babel and did so many things? He conquered the monster ruins and wiped out the mole gang?

In the end what happened?

Although President Zhilan had her family's request for her departure, she had also calculated the time. Chu Yan and his group should still be busy in the tower and it would not be over so soon.

She also talked to Milanqi about herself

460

According to her plan, when Chu Yan is about to come out of the tower, she should have finished her family affairs and returned to the Babel Tower area.

Milanqi calmed down her thoughts and said:

"I'm going to contact the president right now. If we rush back, I should be back in two hours."

Chu Yan nodded to show his understanding:

"No problem. Please help me count the spoils during these two hours."

He didn't intend to ask for money. He was just trying to replenish the guild's funds. He hadn't spent much of the huge sum of money he got from the luminous girl.

No matter what, I have to take a look at the spoils I got this time and see what they are, right?

Chapter 3 Angel Armed (k)

The spoils that the tabooists didn't understand would be identified by someone in the guild.

Because Chu Yan brought so much spoils in one go, including the harvest from three high-risk monster ruins, the Adventurer's Guild had to temporarily shut down the front desk service and allocate staff to count the value of the spoils.

"Dear adventurers, I'm really sorry. The exploration commission area can operate normally, but the sales point of monster materials will be suspended for one day. Normal service will resume tomorrow!"

Milanqi explained the situation to everyone in the hall, then put out a "Service Suspended" sign and hurried to the back to assist with the inventory.

The adventurers had quite a few complaints. Some of them had been queuing for a while. Not only were they cut in line, but now the counter service was also suspended.

"Does anyone know what's going on? The Adventurer's Guild operates year-round, how could it suspend its acquisition business?" Some people were puzzled. Rather than complaining, they were more curious about what happened.

There are many vendors and trading houses in the Babel city area, and they also buy monster materials at similar prices. However, if you sell them in the guild hall, you can save up your adventurer level points and exchange them for combat skills, magic, and the like.

"It's probably because someone did something big, and the people in the guild are too busy to handle the identification and counting. There's not enough manpower. A similar situation happened many years ago."

"It has happened before? Which adventure group could get so much loot in one go? I've never heard of it!"

"It's not an adventure group, it's a few female dragonborns who stayed in the tower for a year and collected a lot of monster materials. They stuffed them all over the guild at once. I heard that they thought it was too much and threw away a lot of ordinary monster materials."

At this time, several appraisers came outside. They were temporarily hired from other trading houses to help the guild count the spoils.

Seeing this situation, the adventurers in the hall were even more surprised.

"That's not possible. The guild doesn't even have enough manpower and has to hire people from outside?!"

"I took a break today and didn't go to the Tower of Babel. Is there something wrong inside? Which ruins were successfully conquered? Why are they so fat?"

"Who were that couple just now? Why haven't I heard of them before? Where is everyone's intelligence network?"

The group of adventurers who were previously at the entrance camp now gathered in the hall.

They are usually talkative and want to share everything, but now they can't hold it in anymore.

"Ninja! The group of prisoners has been brought in, and there should be a result soon!"

*

The Adventurer's Guild's backstage was extremely busy.

Although the appraisal can be completed in a few days if done slowly, the guild requires the inventory to be completed as quickly as possible, otherwise it will affect normal operations.

What's more, Chu Yan said that the money was donated to the guild, so there was no reason to slack off or procrastinate.

Chu Yan subconsciously felt that this kind of purchasing work was like playing a game, where one could just drag the items into the store and check out. But in fact, it was not the case, as treasures such as jewelry did not have a fixed standard value.

Some crowns are cast in gold and have varying numbers of diamonds and gemstones on them, which all need to be carefully calculated.

Milan Qi came over and said to Chu Yan: "The value of the treasures is still being calculated, and the others have been appraised almost completely. Please take a look."

"Don't worry, I won't be the one taking the money anyway, just give me the result when the time comes."

Chu Yan said this and led Xia Nuoya to check other spoils.

Things like the Contract of Faith cannot be authenticated by the Guild. You can only know the truth by using a guinea pig to try it out. And they are generally taboo items, so just hand them over to the Sanctuary of Discipline.

However, secret manuals on skills such as magic and combat techniques can still be traded normally.

The price of magic secrets is very expensive and is a hot commodity in the market, but there are none suitable for the people around Chu Yan, and they don’t need this kind of resource.

There are some impressive secrets in terms of combat skills!

[Sword-raising and Slashing] basically allows the weapon to be in a state of storing energy at all times, so that it can unleash great power when it is unsheathed. The power depends on the quality of the weapon, but the disadvantage is that it will cause great damage to the weapon.

Basically, once you use [Sword Nurturing and Slashing], the weapon will be scrapped and you will have to wait to go back and repair it.

If an adventurer buys it, he basically has to prepare an extra sword specifically for using this combat skill.

"Xianuoya, I think you can learn this thing. You don't have to worry about your magic sword getting damaged."

"I'm not afraid of it breaking, but you can't use it so roughly, right? Even if the magic sword doesn't break, the scabbard will rot easily, and you'll have to spend money to buy a new one."

Having said that, Xia Nuoya still accepted Chu Yan's kindness and took the secret book with her. When she reached the bottleneck of studying the [Magic Sword Technique], she would take it out and exchange it for another one.

461

Change your mindset.

Even if she learns it in the future, Xia Nuoya may not use it because she is afraid of spending money.

"【Hippopotamus Whirlwind Slash】, what kind of fighting skill is this?" Xia Nuoya suddenly noticed a greatsword secret book with a strange name.

"A secret book adapted for the greatsword, similar to swinging the greatsword in circles." Miss Milanqi explained in simple terms.

"What does that have to do with hippos?" Chu Yan also became curious.

An appraiser who was counting gems nearby said subtly, "Have you ever seen a hippopotamus' tail when defecating? If you have, you should be able to imagine it... I just counted how many gems, ah! I have to count again!"

This is what happens when you get distracted.

The hippopotamus' tail when defecating is a rather disgusting image, so I won't delve into it too deeply.

Chu Yan picked up another secret book and said, "This one should be more suitable for Janet? We should let her come with us."

[Thousand Faces and Clone] can be understood as the ninja's shadow clone technique. However, there is no such thing as ninja in this world, but there are still many similar skills among assassins.

Shanuoya agreed: "Janet is indeed suitable, but what kind of genre is 'Thousand Faces'? It's so rare."

It doesn't matter if it's rare, scattered combat skills can be used normally, and I don't care about having a complete set.

As for secret books, these are the only ones that are worth your attention. The others can be sold by the guild themselves. Judging from their quality, they can probably be put on the auction house, and the price will be very high.

Chu Yan remembered a curious point:

The cheats book will not disappear after you learn it. It can be reused. Wouldn't it be easy for it to become a common thing after you buy it?

Miss Milanqi heard his doubts and explained:

“This type of secret manual involving skills is very expensive. Generally, the initial purchaser will monopolize it for a few years after learning it, and then sell it to buy other secret manuals.

The more widely a secret book is circulated, the less valuable it is. Many of today's 'newcomer-level combat skills' were once killer moves that were exclusively owned by certain people a long time ago."

So that's what it is.

According to this statement, there are many powerful fighting skills that will be hidden within the family as heirlooms, and they may be lost if not careful!

Chu Yan used to think that those family heirlooms were all created by their ancestors, but it turns out that many of them were "secret books" leaked from the tower and then passed down exclusively to the family.

Miss Milanqi saw Chu Yan's thoughtful look and became interested in this aspect, so she said a few more words:

“But there are also some situations where a family bought a secret book at a high price and thought they could keep it exclusively and pass it on to other families. But after a while, someone else in the Tower of Babel obtained the same secret book.

In this case, even if the investment fails, it is difficult to resell the secret book to make a profit, and the price will plummet. "

Xia Nuoya added, "It's more reliable to create your own secret book. You don't have to worry about it becoming a common skill one day, and it also saves money."

Saving money is the point.

Milanqi smiled and said, "That's easier said than done. The most powerful skills basically belong to a certain god of faith. It's hard for ordinary people to compare with those distant and wise beings with their life's hard work!"

Milanqi also took a look at the pile of equipment. There were indeed some good treasures, but Chu Yan had no use for them, so there was no need to pay attention to them.

"Are there a few items missing?" Xia Nuoya noticed this. She had checked it many times on the way and was afraid that they might have been lost or dropped.

"Yes, there is another special kind, so it is placed separately." Milanqi took the two to a separate room. "If the guild takes these spoils, the church may have a lot of opinions..."

On the table, there were two secret books and three pieces of equipment neatly and beautifully displayed. If you didn’t know, you would think they were museum exhibits.

Chu Yan remembered them. They were found in the monster ruins where the Chuanda Adventure Group was located. There was also a lord-level monster [Angel Cocoon] there.

Angel magic secrets and angel weapons can only be mastered by those who are proficient in the knowledge of the church system and have the foundation of clergy.

It is of little use to outsiders and may easily arouse hostility from the church.

Even the appraisers of the Adventurer's Guild, after discovering the angel's characteristic pattern on it, would not choose to further appraise it, but would directly separate it and place it elsewhere.

Chu Yan thought about it and felt that this might be an opportunity for him to get in touch with the inner workings of the church. If that didn’t work, he could give it to Josephine and Therese.

"Can I have these things back?"

Miss Milanqi nodded and said:

“Of course, this was originally Lord Chu Yan’s trophy, but it is just temporarily placed in the guild room.

But it would be best to tell the president when the time comes. After all, these items have appeared here before, and several temporary appraisers have seen them."

If she had discovered from the beginning that there were armed angels inside, she would definitely not have hired a temporary appraiser.

If an outsider saw it, the news would easily leak to the church, and it would be difficult for Chu Yan to keep it secret.

Chu Yan asked Miss Elf to relax and gave her a thumbs up:

"It's not a big problem. I am also a believer in God. I even prayed to the nuns in that small parish! It's reasonable for believers to be armed with angels!"
