Chapter 495: First Job
Baker is a very common name in the south, and now the boss Baker in front of Charles who holds the adventurer's union slip in his left hand and the Charles adventurer card in his right hand is in his Chinese New Year's Eve, he began to do business with relatives at the age of fifteen, came out to start a business in his twenties, and is now a small boss with five light freight carriages.
The load of these two-wheeled carriages could not be compared with those of Charles's previous caravans, but they were more suitable for the southern mountain roads.
Baker looked at the young man curiously, he was dressed in clean linen, and under his jacket was clearly wearing light armor like leather armor. The leather bag on the back is very new, and it can be seen at a glance that it is made by elves. The helmet on the side of the bag was also new, and the same standard equipment of the elven army was the leather boots on his feet. On the outside of the purse is a shield with an arm, and on the back and between the purse is a sword case that looks like a broadsword. And the most conspicuous thing on his body is the throwing knife leather bag on the outside of his legs, which is dwarf style.
Baker has seen a lot of such young men, and the children of those noble lords are almost all dressed like this when they come out to practice.
It's just that the strength of such young people is uneven, a little strong, and some of them are just like goods.
As for the adventurer level, it's not that you can't brush it up.
Standing beside Baker was a burly man with a short sword at his waist and a door-like tower shield behind him.
At this time, a full-time defensive shield warrior, and his strength is high, should be a high-level adventurer, and may even be a grassroots officer who has come out to train.
Baker said to Charles: "I don't know what your strength is, do you want to compare with Berg?"
Charles just smiled, and his right hand suddenly moved.
"Boom" sounded three times, and three throwing knives were stuck in a fence pole on his right. The knife pierced the pole deeply, and evenly spaced.
Baker looked at Berg, who smiled with satisfaction and said, "Very good technique, you can safely throw a throwing knife behind me." ”
Baker clearly trusted Berg, and he said to Charles: "Very good, you have been accepted, we will leave tomorrow at dawn, if you are late you will have to catch up yourself." ”
"The remuneration is calculated according to the task of the union, and if you hit a monster on the way, it will be your own, what do you think?"
Charles looked at Baker and asked, "Will I walk along the way or can I ride the carriage unconditionally?"
His question is not unreasonable, and some traitors will withhold the money for the cars of new adventurers on the grounds of increasing the burden on horses.
Although Charles is considered to be a risk-taker on the first day, his theoretical knowledge is still very deep, and the group of guys in the team have never seen any scenes, and Charles is listening to them when they usually brag.
Baker's expression was helpless, and he said, "Don't worry, I'm not that kind of profiteer." ”
Charles reached out and shook Baker's hand, his job was settled.
There wasn't much to do in the town, and Charles returned to the Tavern of the Adventurers' Guild and opened a room.
The tavern keeper saw that the money he had paid in the morning was back, and he said to Charles: "Young people, don't be greedy for pleasure, as soon as you have money, you will spend it all, sometimes a copper plate can kill you." ”
Charles smiled and saluted him as an adventurer, saying, "Thank you for your advice." ”
Then he insisted on opening a room instead of a stable.
The service in the tavern was good and the room was opened to enjoy a specific dinner at half price.
Naturally, Charles would not let go of this opportunity, and he asked for the cheapest dinner at dinner, and he really didn't have much money.
Dinner was a bowl of rice and a bowl of vegetable soup with a little oil star, and Charles looked familiar with the chicken feet floating in the soup.
At this time, the tavern was already full, and even the table where Charles was sitting had two middle-aged adventurer couples come to share the table.
The two adventurer couples were devout believers in the god of war, and they prayed a little longer before their meals than anyone else.
Just as Charles was halfway through his meal, he suddenly heard the person at the back table mention a name that he was familiar with.
Adventurer A said, "Have you heard, the Slime Basin has repelled another attack. ”
Adventurer B said in a disdainful tone: "Who is blind to attack a place guarded by the god of law, isn't it a death in vain." ”
"yes, yes. Adventurer A nodded in agreement.
Charles was snickering in his heart, when Ji Shijun met Queen Victoria, and then told him about his relationship with Philip.
Queen Victoria, for Philip's sake, provided the Army with a batch of weapons, including 300 triple assault rifles and 10 wind arrow bullets.
Later, the night before the slave catcher team was stationed outside the basin to prepare for the attack, Ji Shijun ran to the mountain alone with a wind arrow bomb and condescendingly bombed the messy camp, and then the militia of the pioneer regiment took advantage of the chaos to launch a surprise attack and beat the slave catcher team to the ground.
So the people of the escaped slave catcher team insisted that there was a Dharma god stationed in the basin, so they would lose.
At this moment, the Slime Pioneer Regiment became famous in a fight, and this basin is also known as the Slime Basin.
At this time, Adventurer C said: "It's not the good quality and cheap linen that comes out of the Red Basin. ”
Charles didn't hear much useful news after that, and everyone discussed nothing more than where the monsters were almost beaten, where there were many monsters, and occasionally mixed with topics such as which widow in the town did not lock the door in the middle of the night.
After dinner, Charles came to the back of the tavern, and then took out a folding bucket from his backpack - that is, a round cloth bucket coated with slime glue in it, with iron rings fixed on the top and bottom, and a bucket after being fixed with a few iron bars, and fetched a bucket of water from the well back to the room.
He first put his backpack at the foot of the bed, put the big knife in a place where he could pick it up when he was sleeping, removed the throwing knife bag and put it next to the bed, and finally took off the clothes and dragon scale armor on his body.
After undressing, he threw a small fireball into the bucket and briefly wiped himself with hot water.
The bedding in the room was fairly clean, but he didn't dare to use it.
So he took out the storage ring around his neck with a necklace, took a sleeping bag out of it, and put it on the bed.
Charles, who was lying on the bed, couldn't sleep for a long time, there was no way, the sound insulation of this wooden building was not good.
Below his room is the dining room, and the drinking adventurer doesn't know what quiet is.
What made him even more depressed was that in the room on the left, the adventurer couple who had just shared a table with him began to fight close to each other after praying to the god of war, and in the room on the right, the waitress girl in the tavern was screaming, and the bed was dancing in the upstairs room.
