Chapter 451
Later, mercenaries and adventurers proposed the establishment of a formal organization, and after the formation of the adventure union, the bar was eliminated. But there are still plenty of adventurers who like to come to the mercenary bar, where they hang out, party, and occasionally have special quests to be released. Lausanne waited for Xinghai to finish the tempered cup of orchid wine before he said slowly.
"The Adventurers' Guild is modeled after the Hunters' Guild, but it has more stringent conditions for membership and no restrictions at all. This makes the number of registered adventurers very large, but it also means that there are many adventurers who have never really taken risks in their lives. The Hunter Association is different in that the conditions for becoming a hunter are harsh, and you have to go through layers of selection. And the Hunters' Guild sometimes has mandatory tasks. Those missions are very dangerous, and the corresponding hunters are well paid. It can be said that every high-level adventurer wants to be a licensed hunter. The hunter's license has more rights than even the nobility of many countries. When Lausanne said this, he stared at Xinghai's face carefully, but found that Xinghai was indifferent. He sighed and continued: "So, Xinghai, if you want to become a hunter, you have to be prepared, you must first have strong strength, and then you must learn to be flexible. It is said that the tests of the Hunters' Association are never fixed, completely irregular, and sometimes even brain tests. In short, after the hunter test every year, I will always be scolded, saying that the content of those tests is too bad..."
Hunter assessments, from traps to jungle beasts, from ruined deserts to large islands, extreme fitness, strength, speed, and the occasional intelligence test. The most famous of the hunter tests is that several levels are full of intelligence questions, all kinds of messy history and science and technology questions. It was only a helpless scholar who finally passed that time. A true scholar who had no cultivation at all became a hunter, which was the most shocking news at that time.
Lausanne was drinking as he told a gonzo about the hunter test. Rocky poured a glass of wine into the drunkenness. Xinghai put his hands on the table, his palms supported his chin, and listened with relish, imagining what kind of questions he would encounter in the test in two years, and what he would do after passing.
The bar is lively, but it's not chaotic. Every customer who comes here retains respect for the traditional profession of adventurers. They don't make trouble here, and even if there is a conflict, they all go outside to solve it. For these adventurers, such a small bar is a sacred place in their hearts, and its status is even equal to that of a hunter's license. They racked their brains to reminisce and tell adventures and jokes, whether they had experienced them or heard them, they laughed out loud with all their might, and the laughter was both sighing and remembrance, and they would not stop drinking as long as they had the strength to pick up their glasses. Drinking, laughing, and taking risks are the most important components of these people's lives. This is true of the vast majority of adventurers.
"That person is the owner of this generation of bars. Lausanne gestured to the edge of the bar. A handsome middle-aged man with a well-mannered manner, a neat outfit, short energetic hair, and a thin scar on his left cheek. The scar runs down from the forehead and across the eyes. The injury was not ugly, and it even made this middle-aged man who was too pale look even more manly. The man sat there, and the bartender at the bar took every opportunity to talk to him, but he just listened quietly, drinking at a steady pace. Lausanne waited for Xinghai to take a closer look and then said: "Don't look at him like a scholar, he is actually an out-and-out fanatical adventurer. If it weren't for the serious injuries and the need to inherit the bar, I would still be venturing around the world. He leaned into Xinghai's ear and whispered, "It is said that he has obtained an official hunter's license from the Hunters' Association. ”
Xinghai didn't say anything, he just stared at the middle-aged man tightly, as if he wanted to see something from the man's face.
Much later. Only then did Lausanne open his mouth and say to Xinghai: "There are no flowers on his face, don't look at it." It's almost time, let's go back and rest. Tomorrow I'll take you to those places that have special features. ”
In the next two days, under the leadership of Lausanne, Xinghai relied on a rented car to walk around the streets and alleys of the entire southwest city.
The weather was nice, the sky was clear and the sea breeze was blowing. On the right side of the seaside pier facing Normas. There is a tall stone tower, which is not very large, only three stories high, and is far away from the lighthouse of the harbor. The tower is surrounded by a circle of steps that stretch from the first floor to the third floor. Outside the three-story stone tower, a ship floats. The ship is about 40 meters long, with a large propeller at the stern that is constantly turning, this is a spaceship, or more precisely, an airship. A ladder stretched out from the airship, just on the platform on the third floor of the stone tower. There were several people standing on the platform, preparing to board the airship. The three of them stood at the edge of the platform.
"Alright, don't send us off. This airship flying around the Empire will be able to send us home safely. Lausanne said to the boy standing in front of him. Rocky was carrying two boxes, and behind him, he also looked at the sea of stars.
Airships are a technology revived 800 years ago by Nobel engineers. Legend has it that there was only one airship in the past, and that airship called "World" took nearly three years to circumnavigate the continent. Engineers at Science City, while reinventing the technology. The speed problem has been solved, and now the airship "New World" flying around the continent only takes half a year to fly around the continent, and the route has also increased a lot. Every country has an airship, but the expensive airship ticket price also makes many people prohibitive. The fixed target route, coupled with the high cost, greatly limits the scope of use of airships. The airship "West" of the Western Continent Empire, passing through major cities of the Western Continent Empire, only takes three weeks for a one-way voyage, and the ticket price is as high as 400 Nas per person, and the ticket is valid on the same day, and it will be invalid after expiration. Flights only stop for 10 minutes at each stop, and there are often those who miss out for various reasons.
"Well, you and Rocky should get on board. When you're gone, I'll go to the other parts of the city first. Xinghai nodded and said.
"In the future, if you have the opportunity, come to Muturan to find me, no matter what you need help, I will definitely do my best. After Lausanne finished speaking, he squatted down and patted Xinghai on the shoulder. Then he turned and walked towards the West.
Xinghai watched as the two brothers, Lausanne and Rocky, got on the boat, and only turned around and returned to the inn when they couldn't see the airship in the distance.
