Archer's Adventure Manual

"Dude, I want to ask you a question. My arm has been weak since I was a child, but I've heard from some people that yours seems very energetic lately. Do you have some amazing methods for doing that?"

Loran pointed to his right arm with a pained expression. At this moment, Loran's right arm was as if it were dislocated, limp and unresponsive unless manually moved.

The resident being questioned by Loran was clearly taken aback, but he quickly composed himself and said mysteriously, "Brother, are you really interested in learning my method?"

Loran said earnestly, "Yes! To be honest, I'm very anxious right now... I long to live like a normal person! I'm willing to do anything to get back to that kind of life."

The resident showed a look of empathy and said with emotion, "Sir, I completely understand how you feel, because before this, I was also a person suffering from an illness."

"The indifferent gazes of others and the unfairness of the environment are hurting me all the time. God has been very unfair to me, and life has closed the window of sunshine for me."

At this point, the resident took Loran's hand. "But now, we can all change this predicament, and we can all become normal people again! However, you need to keep this a secret. I can't tell you anything until I take you to that place."

Loran nodded seriously, "Okay!"

And so, Loran followed the resident away.

The members of the Dog Dagger Squad, who were hiding in the rear, looked at each other in surprise. They hadn't expected that Loran would have some talent in acting, and that he would succeed in his first acting role!

The Dogecoin squad quietly followed behind.

Loran followed the resident forward, but suddenly the resident stopped and looked to the right.

Loran, also curious, peered to the right.

But the next second, something unexpected happened!

The resident actually pulled out a small knife from his waist and stabbed Loran directly in the right arm!

Loran's previously "dislocated" right arm miraculously became fully functional again, and he easily caught the knife that the resident was thrusting at him.

The resident's expression immediately turned ferocious. He glared angrily at Loran, "You...you said your hands were born with a problem?! Why did you lie to me...why...why?!"

Loran noticed that something was wrong with the residents. He saw the faces of the people in front of him gradually turn blood red, with veins bulging, making them look terrifying.

"Damn it! Even if I lied to you, you don't have to be like this! Guys, control him!" Loran shouted.

The next moment, Brian rushed to the scene and immediately restrained one of the man's legs. Then Lin Wen appeared, with a sturdy hemp rope in her hand, and immediately wrapped the guy up in a 360-degree loop.

Noah, meanwhile, held his greatsword, constantly on guard against any further extreme actions by this guy.

But clearly, the resident who was bound hand and foot had lost the ability to resist. He could only slightly raise his feet and try to struggle, but to no avail.

Lorraine, still somewhat shaken, patted himself off. "My God, this guy seemed perfectly normal, why did he suddenly change his expression... What do we do now?"

They originally intended to use Lorraine's acting to find these suspicious individuals and uncover some clues, but now, they didn't expect these people to be so unusually vigilant.

"I think that's enough. We've confirmed that this person is a victim of that red substance... We probably can't do much with him, so let's hand him over to the Adventurers' Guild," Lin Wen suggested earnestly.

Noah nodded. "This is the best choice."

Although the source was not identified, finding close contacts was still a very good outcome, and submitting this clue to the Adventurers' Guild should yield excellent results.

Finita looked at the townspeople who were tied up and hesitated, saying, "Wait, wouldn't it feel a little strange to take him to the Adventurers' Guild like this?"

The group then took the man to the Adventurers' Guild and explained the situation in detail.

"You may not believe it, but we do seem to have discovered some clues about the recent monster clusters, and those monsters' methods may have infiltrated our town. I believe your Adventurers' Guild, as a place with a wide range of information sources, should also be aware of this."

"We have taken many investigative actions..."

After explaining the general situation, Loran and the others handed over the bound resident.

The guild's personnel were dumbfounded by what they saw. Even if this guy was a suspect, he was still a town resident in name only. Why were they just arrested like that?

"You guys... sigh, I don't think I can handle this. Please come with me."

Loran and his companions then followed the guild staff up to the third floor of the Adventurers' Guild, where they once again encountered the white-bearded old manager, Dylant.

Dylan was quite surprised to see the townspeople bound hand and foot, but he did not react further. Instead, he patiently asked Loran and the others about the reason for what happened.

After understanding what had happened, Whitebeard Dylant nodded slightly. "Adventurers, you've done well. The guild will reward you accordingly. However, I still hope you can continue your investigation. As for the townsman's matter, I will handle it. You don't need to worry about it."

"Okay, Mr. Dylant, thank you very much." Lin Wen breathed a sigh of relief. She had originally thought that their rather rough handling would result in some punishment.

"Special times call for special measures. The Adventurers' Guild is quite reasonable and clear-headed, which is a good thing for us. However, this does not mean that we can do these things recklessly," Noah said calmly.

The group received their quest rewards from the Adventurers' Guild while expressing their feelings.

The way the compensation was given this time was quite conspicuous.

A special guild officer stepped forward to handle the reward for this mission, loudly announcing within the Adventurers' Guild: "At this very moment, an adventurer team has provided crucial information regarding the recent monster cluster issue! After review by the guild leaders, this information has been deemed valid and worthy of a reward. Therefore, this team is hereby commended!"

"This squad is... the Dog? Oh, the Dog Dagger Squad! Shall we give them a round of applause?!"

The guild members fell into a brief silence. They all felt that the team's name... was a little strange.

However, they still gave it a warm round of applause.
