Overlord: Start from the Goblin Lair

"Oh, that's an ancient ruins in the homeland of our elves. It's normal that you haven't heard of it," Anastrina explained, saying that Ron's knowledge was limited. I can’t remember exactly when a large meteorite hit the jungle that few people have set foot in, causing quite a stir.”

"At that time, the empire, which had not yet been usurped by the Lane family, immediately sent people to investigate. A large number of fungal organisms and strange molds were found there, which we call 'gibberellus'."

"It took the empire a long time to suppress those extremely offensive species and set up a blockade, but this could not stop those curious explorers. Since the discovery of the Gibberella ancient ruins, a large number of scholars Going deep into dangerous areas with adventurers, a small number of them brought out a lot of valuable information, but most of them died inside - fortunately, the team I hired was the former. "

"By the way, didn't I tell you what Gibberellus is? Let me explain it to you..."

"No need, we have learned about these things," Ron quickly stopped her. "In fact, we have encountered this kind of fungus. They are indeed quite dangerous. What's not good is that, over there, we There is probably a similar area to the 'Gibberellus Ruins'."

"Didn't you just say that you were short of money? Could you -"

"You mean, there is also red mold in the delusional land?!" After listening to Ron's words, Anastrina's expression immediately became subtle, "I don't want to touch that thing again. It's not a joke if I get it. It’s fun!”

"You don't have to worry about this!" Drayford drank all the ale in the wooden cup. The goblin couldn't get used to the bland royal special offer and would rather drink the ale as water. "We already know how to deal with those things. There’s nothing difficult to deal with!”

Anastrina looked at Ron in disbelief, and the latter gave her a confirming look.

"Then...well, how long will this mission take, and how much money can you give me?"

"Money is not an issue. You and Ms. Liya are old acquaintances. I will not lower your price. Moreover, we also need a guide who is more familiar with the actions of Gibberellus, Spore Man and Spiny Beast. At present, our knowledge is limited to With small amounts of Gibberellus and laboratory experiments, there may be other problems with the wild ones.”

"As for the time, Rose City is not close to the delusion site, and the ruins are also a little far away from our current territory, so it should take a few months."

"For me personally, this time is not long, but as a mercenary..." Anastrina hesitated, "To put it bluntly, it's still a question of money - well, if you give me this number, I will Dry!"

The elf stretched out five fingers and waved them in front of Ron: "To be honest, this is the first time I have offered such a high price, but the delusional reputation has spread far and wide, so I must have some protection."

"You can give half of the deposit first and the other half after the task is completed."

"This?" Ron looked at Anastrina's outstretched fingers, and then at his own hand, "Isn't this a little too expensive?"

"I promise you, Ron, this is definitely worth the money!" Liya quickly offered support to her old comrade, "As a great swordsman, Anna has made great achievements in the war against the Hailan Empire. She can definitely do it. Well done on this mission!”

"I know that Ivy and Miss Victoria will usually protect your safety in battle, but in this way, won't your offensiveness be greatly weakened? When fighting Gibberellus, you can't just know how to defend!"

Ron spread his hands: "That's true, but let me be honest, no matter how willing we are, we don't have that much money to treat you now!"

"Although we are just a transit station for trade, and we can also produce minerals, wood, herbs and even alchemy potions, after all, we have only arrived in the dreamland less than a year ago. Five thousand gold coins is really a huge sum for us. ”

Hearing Ron pouring out his bitter words to her, Annastrina also knew that this matter would probably go to nothing: "Yes, it's not easy for you either. It's true that my quotation is too high - wait a minute!"

The elf opened his eyes wide and looked at Ron dumbfounded: "You, you, you, say it again, how much did you say?!"

"Isn't it five thousand gold coins?" Ron imitated Annastrina and stretched out his five fingers, "The price you quoted just now."

The mineral deal with the devil has brought a lot of profits to the delusion land, but the cost of infrastructure construction is also not a small amount. Five thousand gold coins to hire a mercenary for short-term cooperation is too expensive.

"Ron, I think Anastrena said five hundred gold coins," Daniel sighed, "Not everyone belongs to the lord, gold coins are in the thousands, even Mr. Hendricks is afraid Several days in total.”

"five hundred?"

Ron looked at Anastrina with some uncertainty, and the latter just nodded stiffly - she had not yet recovered from the other person's boldness of asking for five thousand gold coins.

"Sir Ron, can I ask where you are from?"

Anastrina stretched out her hand to loosen the collar that was tightening her neck, and said in a dry voice: "Maybe I have dealt with your family before..."

She had heard a lot about the fantasy land, but in the past few days it seemed that many of them were just hearsay! How could a refugee hire a mercenary and ask for five thousand gold coins? Even those little nobles dare not say this!

Before today, Anastrina might have thought that Ron was an ordinary human being who didn't even deserve a last name, but after today, she would only think that this man came from some anonymous family! The reason couldn’t be more obvious!

"Sorry, I have no comment on this." Ron felt that it was okay to let them guess like this, but it would be time-consuming and laborious to explain. "If your offer is five hundred, then I think we should be able to cooperate very happily."

"That's hard to say..." Anastrina rolled her eyes. No matter how old the elf is, at least she still looks very young and beautiful. "I have some regrets. If the task is difficult, I might The price starts from the ground up.”

"Don't listen to this guy's nonsense," Liya raised her wine glass and toasted to Ron and her old comrades respectively, "Even if she switches careers and becomes a mercenary, her professional ethics are completely trustworthy. You can rest assured to work with her. She cooperates.”

"As for you, Anna, don't underestimate them. Ron and the others are the team that conquered the Dream Land and established a foothold. Don't hide behind them the whole time. It would be a joke to be compared with them," Liya said half-jokingly. She hit her friend with her elbow. She was very satisfied with Ron's tincture. She had to think about it for this young man. "If I heard about this situation, I would take it for Ron and my daughter." Get your commission back!”
