Chapter 9 Adventurers' Guild
Chapter 9 Adventurers' Guild
"I've told you so many times, we don't need to go to higher education, why make things so difficult for ourselves?"
Viola cried out in a trembling voice:
"Don't be afraid, little Viya, your aunt will definitely save your leg."
Yue Feng saw it clearly; she was powerless to help.
This level of infection is simply beyond the capabilities of an ordinary herbalist.
If this continues, Sovia's right leg will definitely have to be amputated.
Since this is a fantasy-themed other world, there should be things like healing potions, right?
"Phew~"
Yue Feng exhaled a mouthful of sand, then picked up Sovia's backpack and began rummaging through it.
There are a total of 9 silver coins and 33 copper coins.
In addition, there are 17 Goblin Left Ears and a quest assignment form.
"I wonder if this amount of money is enough to buy a bottle of healing potion."
As for whether the quest can be completed, we'll have to check with the Adventurers' Guild.
As soon as he entered the town, he saw several men wearing leather armor walking towards a very grand and magnificent building.
Yue Feng guessed that the place was either a brothel or an adventurers' guild.
Thinking of this, he gripped Sovia's backpack tightly and strode towards the door.
"Where are you going?" Viola asked, her voice trembling with sobs.
Only now did she begin to understand.
Perhaps the earth elemental wasn't summoned by Sovia at all, and that the one who saved her was a high-level adventurer who didn't want to show his face.
Taking the backpack is just a way to collect some reward.
"No matter what, I still want to thank you for rescuing Sovia. She's my only niece."
Viola bowed deeply to the earth elemental, her expression full of gratitude.
"If my son had met a kind person like you two years ago, things wouldn't have turned out this way..."
Yue Feng couldn't understand what she was saying.
"Don't worry, I understand."
After saying that, he pushed open the wooden door and walked out of the mossy herb hut.
During his rest, he drew some primordial energy from underground.
However, the primordial energy of the material plane is not pure enough, and the earth element energy it contains is pitifully small.
But something is better than nothing; at least Yue Feng doesn't have to crawl anymore, and he can at least be a 'human' again.
He followed the route he remembered, winding his way through the streets to the main street.
A striking building stands at the end of the main street.
This is a four-story building made of red bricks, with old, honey-yellow glazed bricks covering the walls.
Many tiles have peeled off, revealing the rough red bricks underneath. Above the top-floor door frame hangs a huge wooden plaque.
Adventurers' Guild.
The wooden plaque also has a line of small characters written in the lower right corner: Huangsui Town Branch.
Several adventurers walked out of the guild together and bumped into Yue Feng, who was walking in.
The first floor is a spacious guild hall, where it appears that accepting and submitting quests takes place.
At this moment, there were few adventurers in the hall. They sat in small groups in the corners, neither checking nor submitting requests, seemingly just taking advantage of the guild's heating.
"It seems that even adventurers don't want to go out to do quests in this awful weather."
Only one counter in the middle of the lobby was open; all the other windows were closed, and there were no receptionists on duty.
Yue Feng sculpted the rock body to make it even stronger, and then mustered his courage to walk toward the only open counter.
"A commission scroll, a hunting certificate, and a guild badge."
The blonde girl behind the counter didn't even look up, fiddling with her nails as she rattled off the items she needed.
Yue Feng nodded, remaining silent and pretending to be an expert.
He pulled out Sovia's white badge, 17 goblin left ears, and a paper scroll from his backpack.
They were handed to the girls at the counter one by one.
The blonde girl opened the commission roll, her long fingernails clicking together.
"Name."
......
"I'm asking you, what's your name?"
When the girl looked up, she saw not a person, but a humanoid earth elemental.
The two people stared at each other for a few seconds.
"Who summoned this earth elemental? Please don't make fun of me!"
She stuck her head out of the counter and looked around, but didn't see anyone else nearby.
Yue Feng remained silent, pretending to be an expert.
He wanted to speak, but unfortunately he couldn't understand or answer.
He had no choice but to take out the silver coins from his backpack, point to the coins, then to the mission assignment, and finally spread his hand out in front of the receptionist.
Upon seeing this, the receptionist swallowed hard and began to imagine what was happening.
Is the earth element really that intelligent?
"Could this be some kind of prank by a high-ranking sorcerer?"
She composed herself, instantly changing her expression, and said respectfully:
"Hello, this shows that the commission has been completed. Here is your commission fee, please accept it."
A bag of coins landed with a thud in front of Yue Feng.
"The reward for killing 15 goblins is a total of 10 silver coins and 50 copper coins. Please check the amount."
After saying that, the receptionist picked up a small handful of copper coins and handed them to the Earth Elemental.
"This is the payment for the other two goblin left ears, provided by the Mansa Merchant Guild."
Yue Feng weighed the bag, opened it, and counted the coins: 10 silver coins and 55 copper coins.
I have a better understanding now.
Goblins are waste products; they can neither produce any raw materials nor be eaten.
Aside from the village pooling money to issue commissions, no one will pay for goblins.
Merchant guilds that cooperate with the Adventurers' Guild will allocate a small amount of money to recycle excess goblin ears.
As for how much of this small amount there is, it all depends on the receptionist's mood; it's even normal for them not to give anything at all.
Yue Feng took the badge from Sovia and put it back in his backpack. He had taken a while, and a line had already formed behind him.
In front of the receptionist, he took a step to the left and pointed to the weapon of the person in line behind him.
The blonde girl didn't understand what the earth elementalist was trying to do at first. After thinking for a while, she slapped her forehead and said:
"Want to buy weapons, equipment, or items? Turn right after you go out and you'll find Enzo's Forge. As for potions... never mind, I'll draw one for you."
After saying that, she took out a map of the commercial street from the drawer below and started doodling on it.
About a minute later, the map was delivered to the earth elemental.
"Master mage, if you follow the directions shown on the map, you will find the blacksmith shop and the potion shop."
Yue Feng took the map, feeling like he had been misunderstood, but he still nodded to the blond receptionist, giving the service a five-star rating.
He gave up his seat at the front desk to the guy behind him who was getting impatient.
Open the map and examine it closely.
The map itself is very well drawn, with few words and many pictures, like a picture book for children, so you can tell where everything is at a glance.
Yue Feng suspected that the map was made this way because many adventurers were illiterate.
Although this world possesses extraordinary powers such as magic and martial arts, its overall level of civilization is roughly at the medieval level.
The illiteracy rate is very high.
"So you could say you're benefiting from being illiterate."
Yue Feng made a complaint, and then, following the map's directions, decided to first go and check out the places marked with rings, necklaces, staffs, and diamonds on the map.
