If everyone becomes an adventurer, who will put in the effort themselves?

After Lynn interrupted yet another suggestion, Mira couldn't keep her composure and said in a very unnatural tone:

"Your Majesty the Faceless Man."

“You’ve already discussed 11 support skills with me.”

"Are you sure you don't need to choose from the combat skills?"

"You have to understand that in the dungeon, even in the first 12 floors of the beginner area, the ability to fight head-on is essential."

"At the very least, you should have some basic swordsmanship skills, right?"

Friend, are you going on an adventure into the dungeon?

You're not learning any combat skills, only support skills? Are you trying to get yourself killed?

Hearing Mira's obvious reminder, Lynn regretfully closed the auxiliary skill stone manual in front of him, picked up the combat skill manual, casually flipped through it, and said:

"Then let's buy a basic swordsmanship course!"

"Oh right, add stealth, hmm, that should be enough!"

Mira was stunned to hear that Lynn had so readily followed her advice and purchased the Swordsmanship Fundamentals course.

"Your Excellency, would you like to reconsider?"

Mira pursed her lips slightly, her expression somewhat unnatural, and said:

"Combat skills are still somewhat dependent on adaptability. My suggestion about swordsmanship basics was just that—a suggestion."

Mira never intended for Lynn to skip any tests and simply choose swordsmanship.

According to her understanding, shouldn't she have gone to the weapons training room first to test her preferred weapon type before making a decision?

"No need for all that trouble, let's just settle the bill!"

Lynn waved his hand and said casually:

"By the way, including the discount, how much has the skill fee accumulated so far?"

Upon hearing this, Mira stared blankly for a moment, then gave Lynn a deep look.

Finally, she tossed her hair aside, calculating as she nervously said:

"Let me calculate... After the discount, it's about... 1,102,000 French francs."

Lynn tilted her chin slightly upon hearing this, "It's a little over, but it's fine, it's enough."

"Please buy these skills for me."

Mira gave Lynn a deep look upon hearing this, and finally picked up the notebook beside her, saying in a businesslike manner:

"Okay, please wait a moment while I get the skill stone for you."

As Mira walked away with heavy steps, Lynn narrowed his eyes and glanced at her back, especially at the silver, upturned fox tail behind her.

As the girl moved gracefully, her silver fox tail bounced up and down, attracting everyone's attention.

Lynn had noticed earlier that this consultant was a little too beautiful.

The fact that he was a fox-eared girl excited him, especially since his fantasies had been washed away by the second game for many years.

Previously, Lynn had been too polite to knock too many times, but now that the person had left, he could take a few more glances without any restraint.

"So beautiful... As expected, the quality of my maternal grandmother is truly top-notch..."

As Lynn spoke, he seemed a little thirsty and picked up the tea on the table, preparing to take a sip.

Just then, he, who had been keeping an eye on the lobby, spotted several figures.

And leading the group was none other than his lovely and approachable 'cousin', Tan Ning:

"Oh, it's the female praying mantis chasing after us!!"

Chapter 3: Mature adventurers always like to return to the scene!

The Adventurers' Guild lobby on the first floor.

The Tan Ning family, who had just arrived by car, quickly went to the adventurer counter.

"Hello, what service do you need?"

Just as Tan Ning's father was about to take out the portrait he had prepared beforehand, the round-faced woman next to him said in a slightly shrill voice:

"We're going to put up a missing person notice for my nephew, Lynn Knightworth!"

Upon seeing the woman speak, the man beside her immediately shut his mouth.

Upon hearing this, the counter staff calmly said:

"Okay, it's a missing person mission, right?"

"The handling fee is 500 legal tender. What is the reward amount for finding this person?"

"Five hundred for the service fee? How can that be so expensive?" The woman raised her voice immediately upon hearing the service fee: "That's enough to buy four bottles of perfume!"

At this moment, Tan Ning, a round-faced, freckled girl who was following beside her, hurriedly called out:

"Mom! We can buy the perfume later. The most important thing now is to find my cousin."

Upon hearing this, Ruth Knightworth snorted in dissatisfaction, but kept quiet.

At this moment, Tan Ning took the initiative to communicate with the receptionist:

"How much money does your Adventurers' Guild need to guarantee that you can find the person?"

"Are you sure you'll find the person?" the saleswoman emphasized again.

Upon hearing this, Tan Ning raised her chin: "Yes, money is not a problem, the only thing is to find my cousin."

The clerk smiled and said, "You can spend 10,000 contribution points or 5 million fiat currency to purchase the services of the Predictive Adventurer. Under normal circumstances, ordinary missing person search tasks will almost certainly be completed if they are in charge."

Five million?

Tan Ning's freckled face and eyes froze in shock.

Just then, a gentle voice came from the side:

"Madam, your suggestion is a bit too harsh for the average citizen."

Tan Ning turned around upon hearing the sound and immediately saw a young man wearing a black trench coat and a bat mask covering the upper half of his face walking towards the counter.

“I think you should recommend a more realistic amount, for example, how about 30,000 fiat currency?”

Upon hearing this, Ruth immediately realized what was happening and hurriedly shouted:

"Yeah, finding that mud and planting it for 30,000 should be enough, no, I think 30,000 is even too much!"

Suddenly hearing her mother's shouts, Tan Ning, who initially thought the bat-masked man looked somewhat familiar, couldn't help but turn around and retort:

"Mom, can you shut up for a second?"

The counter staff maintained a smile, but the disdain in their eyes was unmistakable.

At this moment, Tan Ning stopped her mother, Ruth, and turned to the clerk at the counter, saying:

Let's set the reward for finding the person at 30,000.

The clerk nodded and said, "I understand. The reward is 30,000, plus a handling fee of 500 legal tender. Please pay the fee by facing the magic mirror next to you."

Ruth, standing to the side, was still complaining, "Why is it so expensive? Can't you make it cheaper? And if we can't find anyone, will you give us a refund?"

"Ruth, say less."

At this moment, the man who had been silent all along, Jacken Knightworth, the uncle of the original 'Lynn Knightworth', nodded to his wife and smiled at the bat-masked man who had given the friendly reminder earlier.

Wearing a bat mask, Lynn didn't speak, but simply smiled and watched the three of them as Tan Ning faced the magic mirror and paid the fee.

At this point, Tan Ning couldn't help but ask, "When is the fastest you can expect results for this kind of missing person search?"

"The fastest record is one month," the saleswoman explained with a smile. "With a reward of 30,000, normally only five adventurers are allowed to take it at the same time. If you want to speed things up, I suggest increasing the reward to 50,000 or more. That way, the number of people searching will increase to 10, and it will be easier to attract strong adventurers."

"No need, 30,000 is enough, that's all we have."

Tan Ning quickly changed her tune.

At this moment, Lynn, who was leaning against the bar, smiled and said:

"A missing person search? Looks like another poor soul who has lost their family."

"Then, Miss clerk, count me in for this task. Let's just treat it as an after-dinner stroll."

Then, incidentally, he also took up one of the mission's slots... Lynn chuckled inwardly and stretched out his hand, showing the clerk the diamond-shaped stigma that had just been branded on the back of his hand.

The clerk looked at Lynn with surprise, then nodded and smiled.

"Alright, Adventurer, please register using the Magic Mirror."

At this moment, Tan Ning, who was standing to the side, saw Lynn take the initiative to accept the task, and her eyes lit up. She immediately said eagerly:

"Thank you so much, adventurer! Please, you must find my brother! He's my aunt's only son. If anything happens to him, my family... my family..."

She covered her mouth as she spoke, pretending to be about to cry.

Seeing this, Lynn forced herself to stop smiling, turned her head, waved to Tan Ning, and said:

"Don't worry, so far, I haven't failed a single mission I've accepted."

Upon hearing this, Tan Ning and her family immediately beamed with joy.

Just then, the sound of footsteps rang out; it was Mira, Lynn's adventurer advisor, rushing over.

"Sir, what brings you to the counter all of a sudden?"

"Please come back to the VIP room with me. The things you requested have been prepared."

"Okay, I'm coming right now." Upon hearing this, Lynn hurriedly went to greet Mira and said, "Let's go back first."

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand, gesturing for Mira to leave with him quickly.

At this moment, the Tan Ning family in front of the counter looked at each other, and they could all see the excitement on each other's faces.

"An adventurer who can access the VIP room? Could he be a high-ranking adventurer?"

Ruth's eyes immediately lit up, and she turned to the clerk and said:

"Since a skilled adventurer has already accepted the mission, give me a portion of the reward."

The counter staff were completely baffled. What kind of operation was this? They'd never seen anything like it before.

At this moment, Ruth glared fiercely at the clerk and muttered:

"What are you standing there for? Since a skilled adventurer has taken the job, then I don't need any other adventurers, right?"

"I don't need so many people running errands, so isn't it normal to get a refund?"

The counter staff were even more confused. What kind of logic was this?

You're only letting one person take on the missing person search mission?

"Mom! Stop talking." Tan Ning quickly pulled her mother away, glancing at the people observing the area nearby, her expression slightly embarrassed.

But at this moment, Ruth shouted:

"The 30,000 yuan was for five people to work, but now I only want one person to do the work. Why won't you refund my money?"

At this moment, the counter staff realized what was happening and, forcing a smile, said:

Are you sure you want to limit the number of people who can claim the mission to only one?

"If the number of people is limited, some fees can indeed be reduced."

"If it's limited to one person, how much money can I get back?" Ruth asked eagerly.

The clerk didn't confront her directly, but simply smiled and said:

"If you are sure, according to the rules, the task commission can be reduced to a maximum of 2 if the task difficulty is changed."

"Can the handling fee also be refunded?" Ruth asked hurriedly.

The counter staff were barely able to contain their emotions: "I'm sorry, according to regulations, once a task has entered the release process, the handling fee cannot be refunded."

“Then give me back 1,” Ruth said without hesitation.

Tan Ning, who was standing nearby, wisely kept quiet when she heard that she could get a refund of 10,000 yuan.
