Archer's Adventure Manual

Chapter 153 Demonic Vine

With his current abilities, Loran felt he could easily catch a few goblins in the wild.

He went to the Adventurers' Guild alone and found the lowest level Oak quests, most of which were hunting quests, and of course a few monster extermination quests.

These tasks are much easier than other tasks and are relatively flexible. The commission is calculated based on the number of monsters killed, and even if it's just one or two monsters, you can still get a commission.

These missions are also relatively close to the capital city of Plassen.

Loran selected a mission to clear out the goblin remnants, which stated that these guys might be active in the Senvor region.

Of course, there are certain risks involved in doing such a task, as there may be other monsters in the Senvor region. However, since it is relatively close to the capital city of Plasen, there are very few monsters.

Without further ado, Loran randomly picked up a commission to kill goblins and set off.

It's very close; you can walk there.

The Senwo region is home to many knights who cultivate fruit trees for sale.

Loran could see that many high wooden walls stood in this area, and guards were stationed there.

The economy of Plassen is very diversified. They have divided the country into many regions centered around Plassen and have carried out relatively large-scale development in many places.

Even without trade and circulation, Plassen was able to solve many problems related to supplies on his own.

"Hello, have you seen any remaining goblins around here?" Loran asked a guard on duty.

The guard glanced at Loran and shook his head, saying, "There is no sir. And as far as I know, if they were remnants of goblins, those cowardly creatures would definitely be hiding in dark corners, not swaggering around here."

Loran thought the guard had a point, but goblins couldn't hide in one place forever; they also had their own hunting needs.

Loran began a thorough search, and he also used his spiritual vision to examine the surrounding environment, which made it easier for him to find his target.

"This is the ticket price."

"Of course, sir, please come in."

During the search, Lorraine passed by a plantation where a man entered.

The sign at the plantation says that you can pick your own fruit for 5 gold coins per person.

Loran's eyes widened. Was this plantation growing gold or silver? Five gold coins per person? That was outrageous...

Just then, another man who looked like an adventurer came out carrying a plant that looked somewhat like a vine and was quite ordinary.

But the man had a broad smile on his face and looked very happy.

Loran couldn't help but wonder what kind of magic this plant, which cost 5 gold coins, possessed.

He approached the man and asked curiously, "Excuse me, sir, what kind of plant are you holding? Is there anything special about it?"

When the man saw Loran approaching, he moved the plant slightly to the side, as if afraid it would be stolen.

"Hehe, young man, this is a good thing! The plantation doesn't object to us sharing such a good thing. Are you interested? If you hear about its uses, I guarantee you'll be very surprised." The man chuckled.

Loran blinked. "Oh? What's its function? Tell me about it."

"You know, I'm not young anymore, and I have a family. When I do some exercise at night, I always feel uncomfortable. But a friend of mine introduced me to this plant, saying it has miraculous healing properties!"

"He's a very good friend of mine, he wouldn't say things like that lightly, his credibility is guaranteed! But young man, you're so young, there's no need for that, but I can understand if there are special circumstances." After saying that, the man left with a flourish.

"Special healing effects? What is this all about..." Loran was dumbfounded. It was one thing for the hammer here in Plassen to be able to cure diseases, but this plant that looked like a vine could have special healing functions?

At this moment, Loran also remembered his adventure manual, and he decided to ask the manual to see if he could get some answers.

"Manual, what is that plant?"

"Do you want to spend 50 Adventure Points to actively acquire a survival guide?"

50 Adventure Points?

Loran frowned. Although he already had a lot of adventure points, fifty was still quite a lot.

But driven by curiosity, Loran still chose yes.

"Survival Guide: It is a magical vine branch that releases a special scent at night, infiltrates a person's dream, completes a special transaction, and achieves a healing effect."

"Demon vine branches?" Loran was astonished. She hadn't expected that this plant was related to dreams. Could it be the work of the followers of the Dream Cult?

Some kind of special deal... Loran now has a certain understanding of Dream City, and behind the so-called Dream City lies a naked transaction.

Whether it's people's memories, emotions, or souls, they can all serve as currency in circulation.

If the adventure manual says so, then the plants are most likely connected to dreams...

Loran silently kept this detail in mind. He might look up some information to learn more, or perhaps he could try to understand dreams within dreams themselves.

Having used the manual once before, Loran seized the opportunity to use it more often to help solve the problem.

"Manual, how do I remove the curse from me?"

"Survival Guide: As long as the curse has no carrier, it will naturally dissipate."

This time, the manual didn't pop up any information about charges; instead, it gave the answer directly. Loran was stunned by this somewhat outrageous answer.

What does it mean that a curse will naturally dissipate when it loses its vessel? Isn't its vessel the body? If the body disappears, what's the point of the curse disappearing?

Loran asked a few more questions, but the manual's answers were always the same. It seemed that the manual didn't really want to answer its own question.

This all-powerful manual also lost a lot of points in Loran's eyes...

Without asking any further questions, Loran did not forget the purpose of his trip: to find goblins. He continued to wander around the Senwo region for a while, and then he met many more bird friends.

Chattering away, Loran interacted with them for a while. The information-gathering abilities of these winged creatures were truly different; in no time, Loran had pinpointed the locations of several goblins.

They were hiding in a dark patch of grass, and with the dense forest, it would be difficult to find such a place unless one was specifically looking for it.

"Death has come to collect people!"

"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!"
