Ryan's Sword

Chapter 54
Soon after packing his bags, Ian went down to the lobby, exchanged a word of respect with Victor who was still busy with the accounts, and left the hotel alone.

It is worth mentioning that before leaving, Ian asked Victor if he had seen the gold rush team formed by the skinny adventurer Sith, but was told that they packed their things and left the hotel two days ago.This news was also expected by Ian. After all, the evil guy who hired a murderer is the culprit, but Ian is neither in the mood nor has time to trouble him.

Anyway, that team of four couldn't pose a threat to him. Even if that Sith could hire a second dire wolf, it would be difficult to cause the initial troublesome situation.Maybe, when they come to make trouble again, Ian has already been promoted to the iron rank, and it will be a good time to avenge the old and new hatreds together!

Leaving the hotel, Ian turned to the crowded market street and arrived at the Louisburg Adventurer's Guild residence.

As one of the base camps of adventurers in the south, the buildings of the Adventurers Guild in Louisburg are extraordinarily magnificent.At this time, the guild hall was also a lively scene full of people, and Ian walked in with the flow of people.

The quest bulletin board on one side of the hall is full of large and small quest information. Just when Ian walked into the guild hall, a girl with a golden ponytail was holding a quest sheet that was half the height of a person. The briefing leaflet is posted in the center of the bulletin board.Following her departure, many adventurers in the hall rushed to the bulletin board one after another, trying to find out what kind of mission could occupy such a space.

At this time, the lively scene of crowds at the bulletin board also attracted Ian's attention. He stood on tiptoe and glanced at it, and saw the eye-catching "giant" task briefing sheet.

"With such a large announcement list, could it be that a regional mission has been released?"

With such a guess in his heart, Ian followed the flow of people and moved towards the mission bulletin board.Fortunately, the adventurers who were the first to finish the quest in front had already squeezed out of the crowd shouting "Excuse me, excuse me". If you don't know the specific information of a task, or run directly to the task window on the other side, and directly report the task number to pick it up.

In this way, the browsing speed of the adventurers will naturally increase significantly, and the people behind will become more and more curious about that quest, and want to find out what kind of quest is so attractive.

Among the crowd, Ian stopped when he moved near the mission bulletin board. At this distance, the blue system has automatically detected all the mission information posted on the mission bulletin board, and listed them one by one in the form of a chart on his In the field of vision.The player's system already has this convenient function, so Ian doesn't have to squeeze around with those sweaty adventurers at this time.

Since Ian took the initiative to stand aside, his original position was immediately filled by the latecomers.While the other adventurers were looking at the idiots with puzzled or contemptuous eyes, Ian turned his attention to the task briefing at the top of the list in his vision.

"Acceptable adventure tasks - exploring unknown ruins (area/adventure): explore the ruins of the temple of the ancient gods in the depths of Yilan Forest, provide important information or hand in ancient items in the ruins to get extra rewards, attached: ruins Location map*1, basic reward: 10000Exp, gold coin*10, mission failure: no penalty, whether to accept (yes/no)"

Ian suddenly realized that this kind of large-scale relic exploration mission is indeed a favorite in the eyes of adventurers. Generally speaking, as long as you can hand over the things found in the relics to the guild, you can get a lot of money rewards.

However, when Ian incorporated the rough map in the attached table into his own map system, he found that the ruins described in the mission seemed to overlap with a target location he was going to.

"No way..."

Ian quickly recalled it in his mind, and immediately confirmed his guess.

"That's right, it's the ruins of the temple of the dwarf god Borodin the Hammer."

Ian remembered that after the exploration was completed, the ruins became a copy of the wild ruins accessible by the Iron Steps. Because weapons and armor forged by the ancient dwarves were often produced in it, it was once a battleground for the surrounding player guilds.

According to the news announced by the explorers on the forum, the first batch of pioneer explorers discovered a dusty alchemy laboratory at the lowest level of the ruins.In that laboratory, those pioneers excitedly discovered a batch of precious physical strengthening potions.This potion is limited to white-level use, and after taking it, the conversion ratio of physical attributes corresponding to health, defense and various resistances will increase by 10% to 20%.This permanent percentage increase is still applicable even after being promoted to a higher rank - this ancient potion called "Heavy Warrior Training Mixture Initial Form" was originally developed by the dwarves to form their heavy warrior army The potions that are effective for silver species are naturally more effective for humans.

It is precisely because of the powerful physical strengthening effect of this ancient potion that all high-end defensive professionals who are interested in playing MT will add it to the list of necessities for character creation.However, after the exploration is completed and the dungeon is successfully opened up, the drop rate of this ancient potion is extremely low. Even though countless low-level players flood into this dungeon every day, the supply is still in short supply - the exchange daily Judging from the current market price, the price of this ancient medicine is not exaggerated even if it is described as a bottle of thousands of gold.

For Ian, he will form his own adventure team in the future, so he must build up enough prestige.Generally speaking, a tank professional who can carry the entire team on one shoulder is more likely to become the leader of the team that everyone can trust.Although such a criterion is not absolute, in most cases, it can be well applied whether it is placed in a player or an NPC.

Because of this, Ian has to join this exploration mission no matter what.Even if it's not for the rewards given by the mission itself, he must take a share of this batch of precious ancient potions!

With such an idea in mind, Ian quickly squeezed out of the crowd and went through the task acceptance procedures at the window on the other side.When he finished this task, it was immediately displayed in his vision that he had accepted the adventure mission before it took effect.Immediately, he walked against the flow of people towards the gate, preparing to leave the crowded guild hall.

"Hey, brother!"

When Ian passed the gate, a big skinny hand stopped him.Ian stopped immediately and looked over suspiciously but vigilantly.

The one who stopped Ian was a tall and thin adventurer. He carried two broad-bladed long swords on his back, and a scimitar with a sheath similar to a seedling knife pinned to his waist. A fairly confident agile side fighter.At this time, a slightly stiff smile appeared on his face, and he asked, "Little brother, you should be a solo adventurer, right?"

"That's right, is there something wrong?"

As the saying goes, don't hit the smiling face, Ian nodded in response, and at the same time wanted to see what the tall and thin man wanted to say.

"That's right," seeing Ian's response, the smile on the thin and tall man seemed to be a little more vivid, "My name is Renekton, and I'm an adventurer from the small town of Lewisburg in the countryside. I think you seem to accept it." That task of exploring unknown ruins, so I just want to ask you if you are interested in joining our 'lone' adventurer team."

"...alone, team?"

Ian considered his words, and couldn't help but want to ask, brother, are you sure there is no problem with punctuation?
"That's right, the name of the team is Lone Walker." Renekton nodded repeatedly and explained: "Because we are all solo adventurers just like you, but since we are from a small place, we can only temporarily find partners to form a team " He looked at Ian expectantly, and said: "If you are willing to join us, then we can gather a standard team configuration of five people. Anyway, everyone can have a support in the wild, I wonder if you are interested, little brother?"

As he said that, Renekton pointed to the other three people standing in a group in the distance, they must be the other three members of the team he mentioned.

Four white-rank adventurers.

In Ian's vision, the level of strength of Clayton and others is clearly marked by the level number.If it is true as he said, this "lone travel" team is a temporary team made up of things.Such an approach is not uncommon, especially for white-rank adventurers with a large base, this form of grouping can indeed increase the adventure competitiveness of everyone in the team.

However, individuals like Ian are not included.In terms of combat effectiveness, Ian, who can kill the Dire Wolf Fodolink in one-on-one, is enough to blow up this white-rank team by a few blocks. In addition, the degree of coordination, harvest distribution plan, etc. often appear in various adventures. Problems and disadvantages, in essence, Ian is not suitable for such a white-level team at all-even if a temporary team is to be formed, it must be of comparable strength to have a chance to reach cooperation.It is difficult for a lion to keep company with sheep, and that is the reason.

So, Ian shook his head and said, "Sorry, I have other things to do before taking the risk, so you should ask someone else."

This is not Ian's excuse. Right now, he really has to go to the City Lord's Mansion, where there are still two rewards promised by Angelica waiting for him to claim.

"Oh, is that so... so disturbing!"

That Renekton froze for a moment, then said regretfully.

The tall and thin man got out of the way, and the two passed by, and Ian quickly left the adventurer's guild.

However, after Ian left, Renekton, who had made a gesture of continuing to pull people, walked towards the three "temporary teammates" with a gloomy expression.

　PS: Thank you Qing for the reward!By the way, classmate Creton has somehow turned into Renekton, the desert butcher (covering his face), then you should be called Renekton...
