"What! What did you say! ”

This is Zhou Yan's noisy voice, if it weren't for the fact that the other party is a woman, I'm afraid he would have grabbed the other party's collar and started shaking it at this time.

It is a two-storey house that is significantly larger than the other residential houses, and there are almost no walls in the house, presenting a wide scene. A rectangular wooden table that seats three people on one side is arranged in an orderly manner. There are several more on one side of the wall

Bulletin boards, which are used to post tasks or other announcements.

This is the city's Adventurers' Guild. It is also one of the chapters of the adventurer's guild that can be found in every city in all human countries.

Yesterday's failed robbery was rewarded with an unexpected handout, and he had two gold medals that were enough for the entry fee. Although Zhou Yan always felt weird afterwards, he felt more happy.

So today he happily came to sign up with the two golds. He was greeted by the same female clerk yesterday.

originally thought that he would have to go through a series of tests, but as long as he paid the money, anyone could have the identity of an adventurer, which made Zhou Yan's original enthusiasm immediately cool by half.

But none of this mattered, and the reason why Zhou Yan made a lot of noise in the end was that after becoming an adventurer, he was told that the guild would not provide basic equipment.

"Because in the past, many people signed up and sold the equipment they got, and the Guild had financial problems for a while. As a result, the guild no longer provided any assistance with weapons and armor. ”

The staff lady had a nerve-wracking smile on her face - of course, for the noisy Zhou Yan. At the same time, he waved his hand to widen the distance between him and Zhou Yan.

"Looks like you're being hated." The voice of schadenfreude came to Li's head.

"Whose fault do you think it is?" Zhou Yan responded to the glass with his heart and left the staff lady.

"If I even know these details, then I'll be very tired."

"But if you don't even tell me these details in advance, I'll be even more tired."

While arguing in his mind, he came to the bulletin board located on the left wall of the guild. Zhou Yan planned to see if there was a task he could handle, but now he was penniless, and even eating had become a problem.

However, what made Zhou Yan feel devastated was that none of the tasks on the bulletin board seemed to be easy. As for the novice tasks he had hoped for, such as delivering things and passing the word, there was no such thing at all.

The quests posted on the bulletin board are all quests to defeat monsters outside the city. As for those monsters, just hearing the name was scary enough, Zhou Yan just glanced at it and gave up instantly.

But soon, Zhou Yan looked at one of the crusade lists as if he had discovered a new continent - to destroy the goblin community entrenched outside the city.

Goblins, aren't they the kind of miscellaneous monsters with short stature and weak combat power? Zhou Yan's mind remembered the image of the goblin that he was familiar with in his previous life.

If you look closely, there is a bounty of up to fifty gold for this task. It's already a middling bounty in bulletin board quests.

If it is that kind of miscellaneous soldier and weak chicken monster, Zhou Yan is confident that even if he has not learned fist and foot kung fu, he can cope with it with the physical ability brought by sword practice.

Zhou Yan, who was thinking like this, stretched out his hand at the same time, but at this time, he heard Li's voice ringing in his head: "Do you want to take this task?" ”

"Why not?"

"I advise you not to do that."

"Why?"

When Zhou Yan's hand was questioned, he couldn't help but pause, and Li's explanation followed: "Because it's going to be dangerous." ”

"No, aren't goblins the short, green-skinned bastards?"

"Yes, but goblins have a lot of people in each settlement because of their fecundity. And because they are small, goblins like to move in groups. ”

"I can guess this, but since it's a miscellaneous monster...... "Although he doesn't have a sword in his hand, if it's just a weak miscellaneous monster Zhou Yan thinks that he can still deal with it, it's a big deal to fight guerrilla and consume them to death."

However, Li's next sentence dispelled his desire to take on the task.

"A goblin community has at least two hundred goblins, and all of them can become combat power."

Immediately after that, the knife is repaired:

"Also, although the goblins are short, they are not much worse than humans in terms of strength, and they have gradually learned the skills of fighting in the battle with humans, and now the goblins have to be cleaned up every once in a while because of their increased combat power and strong fecundity."

Li's tone was as if she was preaching, and she told Zhou Yan what she knew.

"Goblin, is it such a powerful storage zài?" Zhou Yan couldn't help but swallow his saliva, imagining that if it weren't for Li's reminder, he was afraid that he would have rushed into the goblin settlement without a plan, and then surrounded by a large number of goblins, and then turned into their dinner.

sighed, and just as Zhou Yan was at a loss to continue browsing the bulletin board, he saw that in the corner of the bulletin board, there was a thin piece of paper pasted there as if it was about to be blown away by the wind at any time.

Zhou Yan got closer curiously to see the words on it that were too small rather than Juan Xiu.

"Peer Recruitment"

After his gaze simply swept over the title, which was not much larger than the main text, Zhou Yan's expression when he read the text became subtle.

"Team members are recruiting. You need someone who is gentle, someone who listens patiently even if it's boring, and someone who doesn't laugh at it even if it's a strange name. A person who can stay together even on days when there is no task. The profession needs to be avant-garde, preferably someone of a similar age. I am a great magician who recently turned thirteen...... If you can satisfy people who can't go on with a conversation, and people who can't find something to say when they meet their eyes and don't get angry, you can relax your age and limit your occupation. ”

After reading this notice to recruit companions, Zhou Yan complained: "It's not so much recruiting companions, I always think it's more appropriate to recruit lovers." ”

"I think so, too." Li, who can share his vision with Zhou Yan, came with words of agreement.

But at this moment, Zhou Yan suddenly felt that there was a certain gaze firmly fixed on him. He subconsciously turned his head and collided with the gaze of a girl with black hair, half-length black hair tied up with a hairband and on her shoulders, and a pair of red eyes.

Then, it was the girl who blushed first and looked to the side.

"Uh......" Zhou Yan had already guessed the identity of the other party. Probably, that girl is this recruiting lover...... No, it is initiator of notice recruiting companions.

"Ah, if I could, I really want Mr. Police to arrest you, but the other party is still a child!" Li said at the right time.

"No! My hunting scope doesn't include that child, you also saw the content of the notice, right? The other party is only thirteen years old! Zhou Yan said to Li with consciousness in his mind: "Don't look at me like this, I am loyal to my **, and I will only shoot at the man who can shoot at the object." ”

"I don't think it's something to be proud of." However, Glass only replied coldly.

Zhou Yan didn't pay attention to Li anymore, otherwise the quarrel with her would continue endlessly. Here, I still uphold the mentality of the elderly, and just forgive the ignorant child (Li).

"I always think you had some rude thoughts just now!"

Zhou Yan ignored Li's words at all, and walked directly to the girl who still secretly looked at him from time to time. Seeing Zhou Yan approaching her, the girl couldn't help but show a panicked and embarrassed expression. However, she did not run away, but stood stiffly in place, her eyes kept moving, quietly waiting for Zhou Yan to walk to the table where she was.

"Hello, that ......" Zhou Yan just spoke, but the girl's right hand suddenly lifted, as if she was lifting the cloak that did not exist at all. At the same time, he said:

"Ah, I see...... My name is Yoyo, and my profession is a great magician. He is a skilled intermediate-level magician, and at the same time, he ...... Woo......"

Then he covered his face as if he was so ashamed that he wanted to die.

Watching the girl talk to herself like this, and then being made shy by herself and unable to speak. Zhou Yan's expression became more subtle, and at the same time, he silently complained in his heart: "If you know that you will make yourself so shy, don't make such a strange speech." ”

"Since you've introduced yourself, let me introduce myself too. My name ......" Zhou Yan expressed politeness and was about to learn the other party's way to introduce himself, when he heard the girl's voice as if she was about to cry:

"Ahh Woo......"

Already, I'm about to cry. Zhou Yan felt the corners of his mouth twitching, and that was because he couldn't hold back his laughter.

"My name is Zhou Yan, and my profession is ...... The profession is a swordsman. Zhou Yan thought for a while and then positioned his career: "If you are old, you are eighteen years old." ”

"Anyway, that's it." Zhou Yan said, with a smile that he thought was very cheerful and sunny, and at the same time stretched out his hand to the girl named Yoyo.

However, the girl stretched out her hand, but retracted it when she was about to touch Zhou Yan's hand, and then stretched out her hand again, and retracted it again, and so on. And her face turned redder and redder.

"Yan, you can't flirt with girls, are you a pervert?" I don't know when I have begun to abbreviate Zhou Yan's name, Li, said in Zhou Yan's mind.

"It's not flirting, can't you see that she's shy?" Zhou Yan responded to Li in his mind.

After more than ten repetitions, even Zhou Yan felt tired of raising his hand like this, the girl finally touched his fingertips lightly, and then quickly retracted her hand.

Zhou Yan, who sighed silently, didn't react for a while, still raised his hand, and looked at Youyou's already red cheeks again: "That, I heard that you are recruiting love...... Ah no, recruit companions? ”

It's so dangerous, it's almost wrong. Because that notice was really too much like recruiting lovers, so much so that Zhou Yan, who was almost wrong, clenched his left hand into a fist, and after calming down a little, he continued: "If you can, do you think I can do it?" ”

"Ah, okay, okay. Is it a companion? Would you like to be a companion with me? Is it a companion who will become friends in the end? ”

How did it become an honorific? However, what frightened Zhou Yan was that the moment he heard his intention, Yoyo suddenly seemed to be a different person, and the girl's cold hands grabbed the right hand he was about to withdraw, and asked excitedly while shaking it gently.

"Well, if you cooperate for a long time, I think so......" Zhou Yan was taken aback by Yoyo's sudden attitude, so that his brain temporarily shut down and could only respond stiffly.

In addition, he noticed that Yoyo's natural red eyes seemed to glow slightly red as she became more and more excited.

"Ah!!!h However, before Zhou Yan's reaction came, Yoyo had already let out a louder exclamation and let go of his hand.

"How could I ...... That's really good that you're willing to be my friend...... Ahh......h Ahh......h

Yoyo's face was already red, and even his earlobes had turned a verdant garnet color. I saw Youyou waving his hand to Zhou Yan in a panic and explaining something, while regretting and being shy about what he had just done.

It's a girl who is not only shy, has communication barriers, but is also very disconnected in some aspects. Zhou Yan silently gave a definition to Youyou in his heart.

But speaking of which, it's cute to look at this child's shy appearance. He said that the hunting range does not include girls of Yoyo's age, Zhou Yan, who suddenly had this idea in his heart.

"Sure enough, you should call the police to arrest you!" Li's voice resounded in Zhou Yan's mind.

Because of the loud voice, Zhou Yan, who made his head hurt slightly, couldn't help but cover his forehead, and at the same time responded inwardly: "No, don't you think you can't help but want to bully her when you see such a shy child?" ”

"It's bad, it's a despicable personality." Li's response was very cold, and it was full of respect and distancing.

"You're just here to find fault, aren't you?" Zhou Yan said this to Li in his heart, and then put his eyes on Youyou who gradually calmed down again.
