He originally thought that the matter he would deal with this time might fall on Xing, but he didn't expect that Wendy seemed to be unexpectedly good at it?

Wendy mistakenly thought that everyone had different opinions, so she asked.

"Everyone, any ideas?"

"No. It would be nice if we could go back together!"

March Seven answered first, and Fina, who had been sticking to her, looked like a little girl carrying a bag and automatically followed her.

It can be seen that people in this world seem to have a stronger sense of belonging to people of the same power. Mimiya behaves in a similar way, except that she is much more reserved, and only occasionally her beautiful eyes will shift to Wendy.

However, every time this happened, Xing would seem to be unintentionally standing between the two of them, and when she looked at him, he would return her gaze calmly.

As for Dan Heng, he nodded calmly: "We do need to go to the town to investigate. It would be best if we can understand the movements of the monster coalition forces. This will facilitate subsequent operations."

"Then it's settled. Let's head to the nearest town together!"

March 7th also raised his hand and cheered in a very ceremonial manner.

Along the way, Zariyus, as the elder, could probably see that this team was a little special. Not only did each member have a distinct personality, but they also had the "feeling" of adventurers when getting along with each other.

However, possessing such powerful strength and coming from another world, they traveled thousands of miles just to help strangers overcome disasters. Isn’t that a bit too kind-hearted?

Of course, he did not doubt whether the group had other intentions. Not to mention that they had the ability to do whatever they wanted, what was the point in deceiving a few small adventurers like them?

You have to know that this continent is not peaceful, and people's admiration for the strong is more distorted than you can imagine. In many towns, high-level adventurers are more popular than law enforcement guards.

Some retired famous adventurers, if willing to serve in the kingdom, may even be allocated territories by the kingdom, become city lords of a place, and have the right to self-govern.

Only adventurers like Jin, the current king of the kingdom, and the Sword Saint of the Supreme God can be called such.

Judging from the strength of these adults in front of us, it can be said that they are all gold-level adventurers. Even the entire Adventurer's Guild cannot form a team like this, and can only be found in history books.

The strongest adventurer teams currently in service consist of only one gold-level adventurer and several silver-level adventurers. This lineup alone is already very luxurious.

To have all members be gold-level adventurers is already the configuration of a brave team.

What is known so far is that Master Wendy, who was able to easily kill the Demon General, does not look like an ordinary Gold-level adventurer. If he is a Platinum-level...

There have only been nine such people in the entire history of the continent, and without exception, they are all heroes.

Could it be that this time the hero appears in the other four worlds?

Zarius had a lot of thoughts in his mind, but no matter what, having the help of such a powerful team could at least ensure that the tragic situation of several border towns being massacred would not happen again.

So, while introducing the town to everyone, he also took on the responsibility of leading the way.

When we passed through this forest, we were almost at the border town of Getlo.

Chapter 120 Adventurer's Guild

Gertlo, one of the kingdom's many border towns, was initially a mere stopover for traveling merchants. Later, influenced by the adventuring craze, merchants developed a foothold centered around the adventuring industry, establishing a stronghold here. Eventually, the town became a stronghold capable of withstanding attacks by monster hordes.

In this world, the existence of monsters is not so much native creatures as it is "data" that is constantly refreshed over time, similar to the world view of online games.

This is naturally inseparable from the gods. After all, even for extremely harmful monsters like goblins, only a very small number of people realize the harm of goblins under the intervention of certain "gods".

For most people, goblins are like roadside weeds. Even if they are cut regularly, they will soon pop up again somewhere else. Not only are they smelly and dirty, but even if they are killed, they will not be rewarded much and are more likely to be ridiculed by their peers.

Under this already distorted worldview, the feedback to the entire kingdom is that the important economic system basically revolves around killing the demon army and hunting monsters, which in turn feeds back to all walks of life in society. Not only is it single-core and inefficient, it is also completely unable to resist unexpected risks.

Especially now, under the influence of the evil seeds, the monsters have become more irritable and their strength has been greatly improved. The already high death rate of low-level adventurers has reached a new height.

But the more this is the case, the higher-level adventurers in the industry will be able to obtain wealth and social status far beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

Most people would not consider careers other than adventurers, but would instead constantly compete to join the gold rush.

In most cases, more than half of those novice adventurers will die due to various accidents.

The nameplate, the "white porcelain" piece that symbolizes the adventurer's identity, is most likely the only remaining identification item.

However, if you can transition from this stage to Qingyu, which is the level of a small priest in the team, your survival rate will basically be greatly improved.

Once you reach bronze and silver levels, basically as long as you slowly build up your qualifications and take fewer commissions that are beyond your capabilities, the personnel fluctuations will gradually stabilize.

Also because the death rate of novice adventurers is too high, there are basically very few lone wolf adventurers working alone.

That not only means not taking one's own life seriously, but also means that if someone goes missing, or the task is overdue, by the time the family submits the commission and we send someone to investigate, there is a high probability that even the body will not be found.

This is a very barbaric world where there is absolutely no room for compromise between monsters and humans.

The two fought continuously, with each winning and losing, while the gods sitting high above the clouds took pleasure in it, feeling sorrow, joy, mockery, praise, and occasionally a glance of pity for the story they were performing.

"—This is probably the current state of this world."

Wendy put down the book she had borrowed from the Adventurer's Guild, her expression showing no emotion.

"...it really sounds even more disgusting."

March 7 muttered softly.

"So, what should we do next?"

Xing asked.

"As for the outcome, they probably don't need us to do anything extra. Or rather, the gods sitting on the throne don't want this drama to end, so they keep repeating the cycle of having the hero defeat the Demon King."

Danheng glanced sideways and watched Zariyus, Mimiya and Fina who were delivering tasks to the counter.

"So, as always. We'll find the location where the star core fell, take it away, and leave the rest to the planet's native inhabitants. They've been doing this for thousands of years. There's no need for us to act as saviors and drag them into the vast and unfamiliar sea of ​​stars."

"...Ah, I've heard Uncle Yang say that before. Although it's easy for us to develop the illusion of omniscience and omnipotence, when we truly stand on this earth, we deeply sense our own insignificance."

On March 7th, I clapped my hands, as if I had an epiphany.

"But, speaking of which, the differences between worlds are truly vast, even among gods..."

When mentioning this, March Seven looked at Wendy with a subtle tone.

"I originally thought that a god like Wendy who just ran away was already unreliable, but I didn't expect that compared to these guys, he is so wise that he couldn't be more wise."

After hearing what San Yueqi said, Wendy had to distract herself from the various legends recorded in the book and sighed.

"Alas, I don't want to be compared to them. Besides, there are good gods in this world. Didn't Miss Fina, who believed in the Mother Earth, illustrate this point well?"

"But she seems a little foolish."

Xing said it all.

"While there's nothing wrong with promoting truth, goodness, and beauty, it's naive to expect everyone to conform to this standard."

"That's true, but when you say it, it doesn't feel real to me."

March 7th followed up with the complaints smoothly.

"After all, you had the same amnesia setting as me a while ago, but why do you seem more experienced than me when it comes to actions?"

"I think you should look for this problem yourself, March."

Dan Heng killed the game and also reminded.

"Also, Zariyus and the others should have finished their work, so be prepared."

As an invisible wind barrier was quietly lifted, the noisy sounds in the hall suddenly came like a tide.

The Adventurer's Guild they were currently in was more like a tavern from another world than a proper office. Lizardmen, dwarves, orcs, elves, and, of course, ordinary humans were commonplace.

When everyone looked outside, they also found many people who were secretly paying attention to the situation on their side. Especially as Zariyus and his group approached, some adventurers who were familiar with them also came over to pay attention.

The reason is simple: the pioneers are too "clean". Not only their smell, body appearance, weapons, and other things that can directly reflect a person's situation are almost all dirty and sloppy. Even their temperament does not seem like that of low-level adventurers who work hard to make a living.

This situation usually only occurs after nobles secretly run away from home to become adventurers. They regard the stories in history books as reality and believe that the adventure journey is full of beauty and hope. But in fact, once they really become adventurers, they will be hit head-on by various difficulties.

The first tasks they would be assigned would be to help find cats, clean sewers, and other odd jobs.

Although the monsters in this world spawn over time, they are not completely invincible. Even though the frequency of monster appearances has been unusual recently, nine out of ten beginners tasked with defeating powerful monsters will fail. Therefore, guilds generally do not assign such tasks to newbies too early.

However, there is room for compromise. If you can form an adventure team of four and have a senior lead you, you can take on missions at a higher level.

That is, white porcelain can be connected to black iron, and black iron can be connected to green jade... This is a disguised way of encouraging novices to cooperate with veterans in adventures.

In addition to accumulating promotion points faster, doing so can also ensure a greatly improved survival rate. The existing adventurer system is basically built on this.

"Huh—we're back. It took a while to submit the proof of mission completion. Mainly because that troll heart was so scary. You didn't see it. When Zariyus took it out, the guild's appraisers were stunned. They thought we took the wrong mission."

Mimiya had an unconcealable smile on her face, and she put the bulging purse tied around her waist on the table.

"The commission was originally worth only 300 Kingdom Coins, but because a high-risk monster like the troll appeared and was successfully defeated, the guild awarded an additional 700 Kingdom Coins.

However, the subsequent amount needs to be re-investigated by the guild staff before it can be distributed. But including our share, it is still a huge sum of money!"

"Huh? Aren't you going to take it?"

San Yueqi didn’t know how valuable this money was, but judging from the curve of Mimiya’s smile, this huge sum of money didn’t seem “exaggerated” at all?

"How can this be? We have been blessed with your and other lords' help and have escaped with our lives. It is already precious. If we continue to ask for this money, it would be too greedy."

Zarius shook his head. Although he also liked money, he still knew what was important.

Emotionally speaking, deceiving one's savior not only makes one feel uneasy, but also easily leads to retribution, which is inconsistent with his beliefs.

Rationally speaking, although this amount of money is the largest in his adventuring career, offending a gold-level adventuring team for such a small amount of money is simply courting death, isn't that?

Not to mention, from a more selfish point of view, if he could get close to such a group of adults, even just one of them, it would probably be enough for him to rise to fame in the future. But to achieve this, he must show loyalty that is trustworthy, right?

Rather than focusing on immediate gains, Zarius, who was already too old to be an adventurer in a few years, had to pave the way for the future.

Compared to Zarius, who has many adult concerns in his mind, the young priest Fina is more simple.

"Yes, that's right! This time we were able to survive thanks to the Lord, no, Master March! Besides, we didn't gain nothing. Please see——"

She took out the adventurer's nameplate that she had placed against her chest. The original jade-level nameplate had now been replaced with a beautiful emerald green.

"When we were doing this mission before, we only needed one or two more missions to advance. But this sudden incident allowed us to accumulate all the points at once. I was promoted to Silver, and Fina to Jade."

Like Fina, Mimiya also took out a nameplate from her pocket. It was a beautiful silver nameplate.

As soon as this thing came out, the eyes of the other onlookers changed, and they were expressions full of awe and envy.

Generally speaking, silver-level adventurers are already the highest combat power in a border town. Above them are only senior silver-level adventurers and the "gold-level" adventurers possessed by major forces.

Now that we have witnessed the birth of a new silver-level star, especially an elf who is famous for his longevity, it is hard to say whether there will be another gold-level elf joining the Forest Council in the future.

At this point, Mimiya's face also showed a trace of shame. "Oh, right. You may think that we are taking credit for your work, but this is indeed the rule of the guild. You are new here and have not yet been certified as adventurers, so the mission points must be collected by us."

"That's all right. Didn't we agree when we first arrived? You'll settle the commission, and we'll just share the reward. If you really feel bad, we're not familiar with this place, so we could use a lovely guide."

Wendy said cheerfully.

"Can you please help us take care of everything we need to do here in the next few days?"

If you want to investigate the whereabouts of the disaster, the most direct way is of course to break into the coalition front line, but this method is too reckless and inefficient, and it is also a problem to find where the star core fell along the long border.

Even if we go to the worst-hit areas, the towns that were previously attacked by the monsters have probably been eroded by the rift, and those monsters will not be as easy to eliminate as the local monsters.

Whether it's for the sake of pioneering ideas or to train a star, first gain experience and accumulate fame. By then, the kingdom should automatically come to you, and someone will bring you intelligence and other things.

Doing this would only take a few months at most and would bring about a lot of growth for Xing. If that didn't work, they could also go and attack the Demon King based on the time when he revived.

In this way, time can be maximized and there is no need to worry about losing the final mission goal.

Registering as an adventurer is the second step towards understanding this world.

"no problem."

Mimiya nodded to Zariyus, and she led everyone to the counter. During the walk, some gangster-like adventurers whistled at her, but she glared at them and they quickly turned their eyes away, pretending to enjoy the scenery.

When they arrived at the counter, the young and beautiful receptionist had already noticed the difference in the atmosphere. She also saw the four people following Mimiya. Not to mention their elf-like beauty, even their equipment could not be identified as having been made by the dwarf master.

Especially the cold-faced spearman. The faint light emitted from the sharp edge of his spear made her have no doubt that the monster's scales were nothing but paper to him, not to mention the calm and composed demeanor of a master.

Not good, not good. Is this what it feels like to be moved?

Moreover, if you look closely, the gray-haired female mage next to him (yes, that's right) is also quite good. Not only does she have a heroic temperament, but even her ascetic golden eyes are fascinating.

I really want to break through the physical distance bit by bit, lie on her heart, listen to her loving whispers, and feel the radiance of wisdom.

And the bard, he was wearing white silk that was so easy to get dirty. It must be very comfortable to hold such soft little feet in your arms, right?

Just when the receptionist was about to lose control of her business smile, Mimiya's words made her stunned.

"Could you please help them register as adventurers, Miss Receptionist?"
