Chapter 32: Past Rivals
Irina lowered her hand from her head and looked at the ceiling of the guild hall with her neck tilted back, and after a moment she looked back at her, her emerald eyes swept over the faces of Grolaydon, Urs, and Thea in turn, and then fixed on the priest girl in the wolf's ears.
She unconsciously leaned forward, stared straight at Xia A's amber eyes, frowned, winked, and squeezed the corners of her mouth, as if in a dumb voice, "You also persuade these two madmen!" ”
The lady in charge, who felt that her head was about to get bigger, decided at a glance that the wolf-eared girl must be the most normal and rational one in the trio.
Irina's vision and intuition were not wrong, but unfortunately when Thea was stunned for a moment, watching her react to the series of expressions she had made to her, she only put on a helpless smirk as if to respond to her: "Almost... I'm getting used to it, haha......"
On the evening of Gloriden's visit three days earlier, since she had exchanged with the young man the secret which only the two of them knew, the maiden had now made up her mind not to doubt the young man with whom she knew and admired each other.
Urs's style of action in recent days has indeed changed a lot in her eyes compared to the past, but so what?
No matter what happens, he is still him, for himself. The girl thought to herself.
Seeing that Xia returned to her gaze and seemed to have no intention of assisting her at all except sympathy, Irina supported the table at the front desk of the hall with her palms and lowered her head and sighed softly, my heart is right, I don't care!
Since you can't persuade them, then simply wish them success.
Anyway, the task is their own choice...... Hum.
After thinking about it, the half-elf head of the association pouted slightly, and finally took a pen from the side as if admitting defeat, signed the task list, and then picked up the paper slip and the four-star badge of Gloleiden and handed it to the old man.
As an applicant for this mission, although Gloleiden knew that the actual leader of his team was Urs, he still had to do the work on the surface, otherwise how could he explain to Irina that he was bringing newcomers, so he didn't violate the rules of the Adventurers' Guild at all?
The four-star veteran adventurer leads two rookies to experience the battle, and many large adventure groups are actually keen to take a similar approach to cultivating newcomers, but the old thief knows that the relationship between the young man and the wolf-eared girl and him is naturally not the same as who is leading whom.
Under the watchful eyes of Urs and Thea, he calmly reached out and took the task list and the adventurer badge that belonged to him, officially taking on the three-star mission of "Sewer Troll" on behalf of the team.
The mission hall on the first floor of the association was noisy, and many adventurers in their free state had been looking at the front desk of the association since a few minutes ago, and witnessed the whole process of Urs and his party receiving the mission from Irina.
As a veteran adventurer with a four-star badge, Glorydon is also well-known in the adventurer circle of Twilight, and even during his eight years of being lost and lost, in fact, many adventure parties have invited him, but he has rejected them without thinking.
Gloriden's comeback clearly came as a surprise to everyone present.
And Urs and Thea have actually gradually attracted the quiet attention of many powerful organizations in the city since the two incidents of the snake's fang and the abandoned hut, after all, rumors about young people and young girls have not only circulated in the limited area of the slums in recent days.
The crowd was talking.
Suddenly, there was a bang at the main entrance of the hall of the association, and there was a sound of someone kicking it open with a foot.
"It's the Red Scorpion Adventure Troupe." Following the direction from which the movement came, someone immediately turned his head to look over there, "Red-headed Dambert is back with his men." ”
"The Red Scorpion Adventure Regiment and the Red-Headed Dambert? It's really strange, didn't their people go to the Tongguan Mine on a mission the day before yesterday? Coming back so soon? ”
"Hey, the red scorpion is the number one group in our association, and the efficiency of the people is certainly not comparable to us ordinary adventurers, is it?"
"Speaking of which, I remember that Scorpion and Thorn used to be comparable competitors, and they used to be two of the best groups in the city."
"It's a pity that the Thorn Adventure Regiment was wiped out in that mission eight years ago."
"But Mr. Groeldon is back, and the others are now at the front desk."
"Ouch, now, I feel like I'm going to have a good show."
Among the adventurers sitting in the hall, some of the ones who didn't think much of a deal were looking forward to the arrival of the man they called "Red-headed Dambert" and the old thief.
At the same time, Irina, Urs, Thea, and Gloriden also raised their eyes or turned to see the group of people approaching them in a high-profile manner from the entrance of the hall.
Dambert Kirtchas is the current leader of the Red Scorpion Adventure Band, his nickname comes from the short fiery red hair on his head, and he is now walking down the aisle at his feet to the front desk of the hall where Irina is located, followed by several members of the party.
His chin was raised proudly, his sturdy body was in the prime of life, a hybrid sword with a size between an ordinary longsword and a two-handed sword was inserted in the scabbard on his waist, a middle shield in the shape of an iris was carried on the shoulder of his left arm, and the equipment on his body was a set of steel full-body armor that was enough to make people drool just by looking at it, and the metallic luster on the surface of the armor did not hide the extent of the wealth of the Red Scorpion Adventure Group in terms of financial resources.
In the coastal areas of Emerald Bay, this delicately crafted full-body armor can usually fetch a whopping 1,500 gold coins, and even a slightly less protective half-body armor often costs around 600 gold coins to get a proper purchase.
Enchanted Magic Armor is even more expensive on top of this price!
For many warrior adventurers with limited financial resources, it is their greatest dream to be lucky enough to get a set of their own tabula rasa half-body armor one day in the future.
The well-armed red-headed leader quickly led the followers behind him to the front of Irina and Urs.
The old thief Glorydon stared straight at the pair of eyes in Dambert's eyes, which revealed arrogance and arrogance all the time.
"Yo, isn't this Gloridon? I've heard that you've moved to a tavern in the slums and become an alcoholic. After a blink of an eye, Dambert noticed the old man's gaze, and the corners of his mouth immediately raised a hint of a playful sneer, and raised his hand to signal the members of the group behind him to stop and stand in front of the old man with him.
