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

Damn it, I was fooled by that family of stupid women!

The truly insidious one is that old fox, Jeken!

That's right. Without this old man's tacit approval, how could those two incredibly stupid women have plotted against his nephew?

At this moment, the saleswoman was not surprised to see that Lynn looked quite unwell.

After all, if someone accepts a task, has their commission reduced immediately, and then that same family offers a second, similar task with a large commission, it would be strange if they weren't furious.

"Adventurer, if you need, I can grant you an application to withdraw from the previous mission."

"According to the rules, you can leave the mission without taking responsibility for what you just did."

"no need."

Lynn controlled her tone, trying to keep it as calm as possible so the saleswoman wouldn't notice anything amiss.

"Can I accept that gentleman's task of finding someone?"

The clerk immediately nodded: "Of course! These kinds of missing person missions are not limited to any level of adventurer; you can accept them all at the same time."

"Then remember me."

As Lynn spoke, he pointed the Holy Mark on his hand toward the Demon Realm beside him to verify his identity.

After the Demon Realm finished scanning the Holy Marks, Lynn accepted two missions.

Thanks to the busy clerk, these two tasks were entered into the Stigmata System.

[Mission 1: Find Lynn Knightworth (target information attached), commission 2 fiat currency, limit (1/1 people).]

[Mission 2: Find Lynn Knightworth (target information attached), commission 30 fiat currency, limit (1/100 people).]

After accepting the mission, Lynn repeatedly clenched his fists and regulated his breathing.

A manhunted by 99 people? When did Lynn become such a hot commodity?

Just then, Lynn saw Miss Mira enter the counter from the side.

"Manager Mira," the clerk called out as soon as she saw Mira return.

At that moment, Mira also noticed Lynn, who was still at the counter:

"Your Excellency, do you have any further questions?"

Upon seeing Mira, Lynn's eyes flickered for a moment, then he asked:

"I do have some questions I need to ask you."

"I need the consultant's support regarding accommodation and skills upgrading."

-----------------

20 minutes later,

Led by Mira, Lynn entered a room on the fifth floor of the Adventurers' Guild.

"This is a talent room provided by the Adventurers' Guild for new adventurers to get through the early stages. According to the rules, you can stay here for free for 7 days, and the total cost within 90 days is only 1 fiat currency."

Mira walked ahead, introducing Lynn to the Adventurers' Guild's talent room.

This includes basic catering services, cleaning services, hot water supply, magic stone lamp lighting, and billed laundry services.

After the introduction was finished, Mira added:

"As for the plan you want to know, to quickly improve your knowledge, swordsmanship fundamentals, appraisal skills, stealth, and other abilities."

"My recommendation is basic swordsmanship. You can find a qualified swordsmanship teacher, and the fee will be about 5 francs per hour."

"In addition, regarding the erudite mind, there is a small library on the third floor of the guild headquarters, where a lot of knowledge is available for adventurers to learn."

"You can use your room key to enter the library to study and quickly improve your 'learned mind' level."

"As for learning stealth techniques, you'll need to find an instructor from a thief's association. The cost is approximately 2 francs per hour. If you need help, I'll need some time to contact them, about half an hour, before I can give you an answer."

Listening to Miss Mira's introduction, Lynn frowned and said:

"What about appraisal skills? What kind of teacher should I find if I want to level up quickly?"

Mira smiled and said:

"You may not know this, but the easiest place to level up Appraisal is in the dungeon."

"Forensic techniques require an attitude of witnessing all things firsthand."

"And the underground city is recognized as the place with the most kinds and the most strange things."

"If you want to quickly upgrade your Appraisal skill, going to the dungeon is the best choice."

Upon hearing this, Lynn fell into deep thought.

His most important task right now is to quickly level up his skills and increase his adventurer level.

Only in this way could he hide himself from Jeken's pursuit and the adventurers' trail.

At present, the most urgent task is to improve the level of the survival skill 'stealth'.

The leveling up of other skills serves to improve this particular skill.

But now, Lynn has a problem.

He doesn't have much money left!

He originally had 120 million fiat currency, of which 5 was used to exempt novice contributions and purchase adventurer qualifications, and 110 million was used to purchase four skills.

So now, all he has is a loan of nearly 5 francs and 350 francs in living expenses that he scavenged from Lynn Knightworth's room drawer.

The Adventurers' Guild's newbie talent room is a safe zone; as long as you stay here, you will be protected by the guild.

Even if Lynn was discovered, no one dared to forcibly take him away from the Adventurers' Guild.

Therefore, Lynn had to pay the 10,000 fiat currency for the three months in the safe house.

This left Lynn with less than 40,000 fiat currency, and he needed money to make ends meet. The amount of money he could use was no more than 35,000.

He clearly didn't have much money left, but it wasn't impossible for him to squeeze out five thousand to test the speed of skill improvement under a teacher's guidance.

"Then I'll trouble Miss Mira to find me a swordsmanship teacher for the time being."

Before the swordsmanship teacher arrived, Lynn planned to go to the library to level up his Erudite Brain.

However, after Lynn said those words, Miss Mira smiled and said:

"Let's go then."

Where to?

Lynn paused for a moment, then asked instinctively.

At this moment, Mira said with a smile:

"Of course, we'll take you to the training room for swordsmanship instruction."

At this moment, Mira twitched her white fox ears and said with a sly look in her eyes:

"It might sound a bit boastful, but my swordsmanship skill level is over 30!"

Upon seeing that sly smile, Lynn instantly stood at attention.

"Please give me some guidance, teacher!!"

Chapter 6 is, Teacher!

Adventurers' Guild, Headquarters, 8th Floor.

Inside the weapons training room.

Lynn, dressed in a loose white training uniform and cinched at the waist with a belt, tried to avert her gaze, refusing to scrutinize the 'consultant' in front of her.

At this moment, the consultant changed into a loose black training uniform, cinched at the waist with a white belt, and even her long silver hair was tied up high, revealing her smooth, jade-like neck.

This outfit, paired with those fox ears that symbolize the fox clan, truly gave Lynn a headache, as she was seeing this attire for the first time.

"The basics of swordsmanship mainly involve training fundamental skills."

"Proficiency in the six basic sword techniques and mastery of body power generation while holding the sword."

"If you master the basic techniques of footwork, breathing, power generation, and movements, your swordsmanship level will basically be raised to level 5 or above."

"It can be said that before skill level 10, there is almost no difficulty; it is all about testing basic skills."

Listening to the consultant's introduction, Lynn tried to shift his gaze, and soon his eyes were focused on Mira's hands.

At this moment, Mira held a thin, long wooden stick in her hand, and gently tapped the straight stick against her palm.

The straight stick quickly caught Lynn's eye.

After all, what normal man could resist a straight stick?

However, the stick disappeared from Lynn's sight the next second.

By the time Lynn reacted, the stick had already struck the back of his hand with a soft snap.

"Focus your attention."

Hearing the warning, Lynn raised his head and met Mira's stern, deep blue eyes.

A sharp pain shot through the back of his hand, but Lynn didn't complain. He focused his mind and looked at Mira with a serious expression.

At this moment, Mira calmly said:

"While I don't want to criticize your choice, among the vast majority of adventurers, you started from a relatively high level."

“That 120 million yuan, if used on the right skills, could allow a newcomer to quickly get through the beginner stage of adventure and go further than the average person in this field.”

Lynn pursed his lips upon hearing this, listening calmly to Mira's words.

Seeing Lynn's attitude, Mira sighed softly:

"Indeed, you are fully aware of your own actions."

"Then let's forget what we just said for now and refocus our attention on the fundamentals of swordsmanship."

"Next, follow me and learn from me. First, memorize the basic movements, and then I will guide you to perform the movements correctly."

Mira then walked to the weapon rack beside her, unloaded the weapons, picked one out, and handed it directly to Lynn:

"Try it out, this size should fit your hand better."

Lynn stepped forward, took the one-handed sword, gripped it a few times, and then casually swung it around.

However, he didn't feel anything special.

"Alright, first, take a horse stance, and we'll start with the most basic movement training."

"First is the chopping... Use your wrist to propel the sword, striking the target from above or from the side at an angle. Remember, the force must be transferred from the blade to the tip; this is essential to ensure the power of the chopping."

Lynn stared intently at Mira's movements, while unnoticed by him, the 'Erudite Brain' skill on the skill level panel had already begun to flash.

[Ding! Knowledgeable Mind +3]

[Ding! Swordsmanship Basics +2]

"Secondly, there is the thrust, with the arm straight out, the sword and arm in a straight line, the power reaching the tip of the sword, short and direct, which is the core principle of this move."

[Ding! Knowledgeable Mind +3]

[Ding! Swordsmanship Basics +2]

About 50 minutes later, Mira, who hadn't even caught her breath, looked at Lynn, whose movements were quite skillful and showed signs of a basic swordsmanship foundation, and paused for a moment, asking in surprise:

"You've studied swordsmanship before?"

Lynn, who was still practicing his thrusting motion, stopped after completing a movement and asked in confusion:

"No, this is the first time learning, isn't it all newly taught?"

Mira paused for a moment upon hearing this, recalling the teaching situation just now, and then realized that Lynn's basic movements did indeed seem to have quickly become proficient from his naive imitation.

Could it be that he's a swordsmanship genius?

No... Mira quickly realized:

"What is the use of a learned mind?"
