Some of the rough guys sat here enjoying the food and relieving their fatigue without even having time to wash off the dirt on their bodies.
They talked and laughed loudly or whispered quietly, sharing their experiences and observations during their adventures.
Hygiene is not so popular in this alien world. Adventurers pay more attention to strength and survival ability rather than appearance.
Therefore, Link doesn't like this kind of place very much.
He prefers a quiet and clean environment rather than a place full of noise and strange smells.
However, he also understood that this was where adventurers gathered and an important place to obtain information and complete missions.
Therefore, even if he doesn't like it, he has to adapt to the environment here.
It was mid-afternoon, and many people in the guild had already left.
Because there are limited tasks every day, and the tasks are divided into better and worse ones, the most crowded time is when the Adventurer's Guild opens for business in the early morning.
Everyone wants to squeeze forward to increase the probability of grabbing a high-quality order.
High-quality tasks often mean higher commissions and a safer execution environment, and are what adventurers are scrambling to get.
Now, there are a lot fewer people, and correspondingly, the tasks left on the task board have all been screened.
These tasks may be more difficult and the commissions may be less, but they still attract adventurers who are eager for challenges and wealth.
Link and Violena walked to the mission board and carefully looked at the mission information on it.
"Dear adventurer, are you ready to accept today's mission?"
The guild manager at the counter asked Violena with a smile. Her voice was sweet and gentle, as if it could dispel the chill in people's hearts.
"No, I was in danger during the mission, and luckily this gentleman saved me. He wants to go through the relevant procedures for adventurers. Please help him with it."
Violena pointed at Link, who had been following behind her without saying a word. Her tone was full of gratitude towards Link.
"Well, I'll do it for you right away!"
The poster girl Irina greeted Link with a smile, took out a form and helped him fill it out.
Her movements were skillful and quick, and she was obviously used to this kind of work.
The Adventurer's Guild's poster girls were much more enthusiastic towards Link.
Because as long as you give them the monster materials and exchange them for gold coins, they can also get commissions from it.
Therefore, they are always particularly enthusiastic towards adventurers like Link who seem to be quite powerful.
Putting aside other things, just looking at the armor Link is aware that it is very expensive.
They still have some foresight. In other words, Link is now their new "cash cow".
Of course, there are also many gray transactions.
For example, it is not uncommon for the poster girl to spend a night with a powerful adventurer.
Although this kind of thing is immoral, it has become a default "rule" in this world full of dangers and unknowns.
Thinking of this, Link couldn't help but glance over the women in the guild.
In this different world, apart from anything else, just the figures and looks of the girls are much better than those in the previous life.
Maybe it's the influence of the free magic in the air of this world, most girls have curvy figure and it's rare to find an ugly one.
There are quite a few girls with hot bodies that are comparable to Violena.
For example, there was a female magician drinking with the adventurers in her team at a table nearby.
She was wearing a black wizard robe, the hem of which swayed gently with her movements, revealing a pair of long, straight, beautiful legs.
And her bust was even more astonishing, the group of white rabbits beneath her black wizard robe were probably as big as Link's head.
I don't know what she ate to grow so plump and attractive. Link couldn't help but take a few more glances and admired it in his heart.
Most of the male adventurers are also relatively strong and sturdy.
They have well-developed muscles, and many of them are two meters tall.
These male adventurers often possess great strength and courage, and are the backbone of the guild.
They often drank and partied in the tavern, sharing their heroic deeds and legendary experiences during their adventures.
As if she had noticed Link's gaze, the female magician blew a kiss to Link. At that moment, Link felt as if his soul was about to be hooked away, but he immediately came to his senses and withdrew his gaze with some embarrassment.
Is it magic?
He was secretly annoyed in his heart, otherwise why would he be affected by a mere flying kiss?
However, this also made him realize that he really needed to be more cautious and careful in this strange world.
Fortunately, the embarrassment did not last long. Soon, Irina completed the formalities for Link and gave him a necklace with a bronze medal on it, which symbolized his identity.
This necklace is an identification card prepared by the guild for every registered adventurer. It is engraved with the adventurer's name and the location of the registered guild.
There are ten levels in total based on strength, from the lowest bronze to black iron, tungsten steel, silver, gold, platinum, purple gold, ruby, and diamond, as well as the highest level Brilliance. The name and registered guild location are engraved on the identity card, which is used to identify the identity, similar to the dog tags carried by soldiers in the previous life.
Because most adventurers who died at the hands of monsters could hardly find their entire bodies.
In such an environment, such dog tags are particularly important. They can be used to identify the deceased when an adventurer dies, so that their family and friends can get some comfort and compensation.
"Okay! Registration is complete. Dear adventurer, is there anything else I can do for you?"
Irina asked with a smile, her voice was gentle and sweet, like a spring breeze.
"Well, please help us get some more food and some dry food that we can carry with us. Thank you." Link said.
He knew that in this world full of unknowns and dangers, it was crucial to maintain sufficient physical strength and energy.
And dry food is their best supply.
"Okay, wait a moment, the food will be ready for you soon!"
Irina smiled and ran to the kitchen to prepare food and dry rations for Link and Violina.
She was busy in the kitchen, and from time to time there could be heard the sound of pots and pans colliding and the aroma of food.
The girls in the guild have a good impression of Link, a handsome adventurer who knows etiquette and is relatively kind.
They circled around Link, chatting with him, joking with him, and even making romantic advances towards him.
Link responded with smiles one by one, he knew very well what these girls were thinking.
Who knows, maybe I can get a few more blessings of Slaanesh from these people, hehe!
However, this also made Violina, who was standing by, feel a little unhappy.
She unconsciously began to give those vixens who ogled Link a vicious look, as if they were enemies who had stolen her beloved.
Her behavior made Link feel a little amused and helpless. He didn't know how to comfort this girl who seemed a little jealous.
While Irina went to the kitchen to prepare food, Link was not idle either. Instead, he looked at the various commissions posted on the task board.
Although these tasks have been screened and there are not many left, Link still hopes to find some valuable tasks among them.
He carefully browsed the information of each task, analyzing the difficulty of the task and the ratio of the commission.
After thinking for a while, Link took a commission from the task board.
The mission of this commission is to go to the mountains in the north to search for a rare mineral called "Ice Crystal Heart".
This ore is said to contain powerful magical energy. Link wondered if he could get some back and maybe make some rare equipment.
85. First Commission
At this moment, Violina came closer lightly, her curious eyes fixed on the letter of authorization unfolded in Link's hand, her long eyelashes blinking slightly.
"Ice Crystal Heart...?"
Her voice was soft and slightly surprised, and she was obviously a little curious about the name of this mission.
Link looked at her with a smile, his eyes gleaming with invitation, "Well, what do you think, Violena? Are you willing to embark on this adventure with me? If we encounter those mysterious monsters along the way, I hope you can be my guide and explain their characteristics to me in detail."
Upon hearing this, Violena's lips curled up into a bright smile, her eyes sparkling with excitement and joy.
"Team up? That's great!" She smiled and nodded, her tone full of sincerity, "Vilina feels extremely honored to fight alongside you!"
The reward for this commission is based on the amount of ice crystal ore they can bring back. For Link, this is not only a mission, but also an opportunity to obtain the special minerals of this world and analyze them.
Then we can take it back and let the intelligent computer analyze it, and maybe we can make special weapons.
Taking this opportunity, Link also learned about the monetary system of this world.
In this fantasy world, the monetary system is constructed extremely finely and rigorously.
The value of 1 gold coin is equivalent to 15 silver coins, and each silver coin can be exchanged for 100 copper coins.
Copper coins, as the most basic and widely circulated part of the monetary system, are closely linked to people's daily lives and are indispensable.
For example, if a servant in a noble family could get 30 copper coins as wages every day, it was considered a very good treatment.
For an ordinary family of three, although the three meals a day are not rich, they are enough to keep them warm and full. The daily expenses of such a life are about 30 copper coins.
If you want to enjoy a sumptuous banquet in the tavern in the small town, with fine wine, delicious food, meat and vegetables, enough to satisfy four people, it only costs about 1 silver coin.
Shortly after the meal, Irina came over with a hot meal and some dry food that was easy to carry, and the air was filled with tempting aromas.
While eating, Link had an idea and quietly took out a heavy gold bar from the King's Treasury he carried with him. He lowered his voice and asked Violina: "This, can it be exchanged for gold and silver coins here?" There was a hint of caution and expectation in his words.
When Violina saw the dazzling gold bar, she was stunned for a moment, with a hint of surprise and confusion in her eyes.
But soon, she came to her senses and told Link with a smile that such an exchange could indeed be done in the guild.
After the meal, Link successfully exchanged the gold bars for an appropriate amount of gold and silver coins.
After paying for the meal, they found a suitable place to rent in Blackrock Town under the guidance of Violina.
As night fell, the two went home to rest early and recharge their batteries for the next day's joint adventure.
......
The next morning, as soon as the sky turned pale, Link and Violena met at the city gate on time, both of their faces filled with anticipation for an unknown journey.
They spent a few copper coins and took a ride on a passing carriage loaded with hay.
As the carriage was bumpy, Violina saw Link holding a piece of foxtail grass in his mouth, looking leisurely and contented. Thinking of Link's wish to understand these monsters, she began to explain to him in detail the goblin monsters he had encountered before.
"There is a legend about goblins," Violena's voice rose and fell with the rhythm of the carriage, "It is said that they are greedy monsters created by the Red Moon Demon God because he was jealous of the abundance of human territory. These creatures do not know how to create, but only know how to plunder. They are the true embodiment of desire."
"A single goblin isn't very powerful, and an ordinary person might be able to easily deal with them," Violina continued, with a hint of caution in her eyes, "but they are extremely cunning, and can imitate humans, learn to use tools, wear armor, and even master weapons. Once they form a group, they become extremely difficult to deal with, and they are not something that ordinary adventurers can easily provoke."
"What's more worrying is that," Violena said in a more serious tone, "they will abduct human women as breeding tools, giving birth to various mutant goblins, such as goblin mages, giants, and even kings. These elite monsters are not something that ordinary adventurers like us can easily fight against."
Link listened quietly, taking all the valuable information into his mind. He knew that this world was far more complicated and dangerous than it seemed, and any contempt could lead to irreversible consequences.
As the carriage slowly climbed over a lush hill, a quiet village located on the edge of a dense forest - Taka Village, gradually came into view.
A fresh breeze blew across the fields, bringing with it the rustling of wheat and the delicate scent of chamomile.
"I never thought that chamomile would grow here." There was a hint of surprise in Link's voice.
"Chamomile?" Violena repeated curiously.
"Yes, this plant is very effective in treating colds and relieving pain, and it is also very cold-resistant and can survive in severe cold weather." Link explained, looking into the distance. As he expected, there were traces of chamomile all around Taka Village.
At this time, the driver, a simple villager from Taka Village, who had been silent all the time, also joined their conversation: "Oh, you know about chamomile, it's rare. When people in our village have minor illnesses or pains, they rely on this chamomile to relieve them. If it really doesn't work, we will go to the town to seek help from the pastor."
After the carriage arrived at Taka Village, Link unloaded his heavy equipment and his expression became serious and focused.
Seeing this, Violena asked softly, "What should we do next?"
"First, we need to visit the chief of Taka Village and obtain a detailed map to understand the surrounding terrain and the specific location of the target." Link answered promptly.
"Understood." Violina nodded, and the two of them quickly took action.
The sun always sets very early in the north. When night falls, the wind is bitingly cold and no one wants to carry out a mission in the dark.
Under the guidance of the villagers, they quickly found the village chief and successfully obtained the map.
After simply replenishing some food, they stepped into the deep forest.
The forest was filled with mist, like a veil, which gave the jungle a mysterious veil. At this moment, several black shadows hovering in the air caught Link's attention.
"It's a vulture," Link said sharply, "to be more precise, a scavenger vulture."
These vultures circled in the air, sometimes swooped down, sometimes scattered, and behaved strangely. Link stared at them, quickly analyzing the surrounding geographical environment, jungle density, and possible streams in his mind.
"What's wrong, Link?" Seeing Link in deep thought, Violina couldn't help but ask.
