……

The white light in front of me dissipated.

Qin Ran glanced at the room he was in.

On the left-hand side is a square window, nailed out of wooden planks.

At this moment, it is completely open, but the warm sunlight is still shining in the west, covering this room of about 10 square meters.

The room is not big, so there is no more furnishings except for a single wooden bed, bedside table and a wardrobe.

His backpack rested against the closet, and upon inspection, nothing was missing.

On the bedside table was a newspaper and a half-burned candle.

"There's no electricity."

"Or, electricity isn't yet widespread."

Qin Ran glanced at the candle and picked up the newspaper with his hand.

Burr City Morning Post.

T1891.7.22。

The first page of the newspaper told him where he was and when.

In addition, after carefully flipping through the newspaper, Qin Ran discarded a lot of useless news, and got a few clues that were valuable in Qin Ran's opinion.

"Gold Appears Again in the Ancient City of Aesop"

"The Golden Boom Reappears"

"The 'Scholar' Herbert Shows Heading to the Ancient City of Aesop"

Herbert Recruitment: Escort to the Ancient City of Aesop

……

And a few messages are summed up, that is, two.

First: the ancient city of Aesop has gold, which attracts many people

Second: The 'Scholar' Herbert is ready to recruit more people in addition to inviting him to serve as a bodyguard.

However, there were things in it that Qin Ran cared about more.

"Guards?"

"Heard of my reputation?"

Qin Ran sat on the single plank bed, and his eyes subconsciously looked at the character column.

[Prestige: 10]

Obviously, this should have played a role.

"Is it better to blend in with the dungeon?"

Qin Ran looked at the job posting in the newspaper again.

Obviously, without this prestige, he will need to compete with more competitors.

And if it fails?

The main quest is not considered a failure.

This time, the main quest is: to explore at least 20% of Aesop's ancient city in four weeks, and there is no specification of who to explore with, and it is okay to explore by yourself.

So, even if the competition fails, the main quest will not fail, but it will be greatly affected.

Because, for a player who only has simple memories and does not know more history, culture, and geography of any dungeon world, it is simply difficult to complete exploring 20% of the ancient city of Aesop.

Unless the system is given a temporary language, including the language of the ancient city of Aesop.

However, Qin Ran's experience of obtaining a temporary language was completely impossible.

Of course, this did not prevent Qin Ran, who had already joined the team of 'Scholar' Herbert, from learning more about the ancient city of Aesop and this dungeon world.

After all, in the bottom of Qin Ran's heart, there was another guess.

"Could the ancient city of Aesop have anything to do with [Mystery Knowledge]?"

This speculation is unfounded.

Not even intuition.

It can only be said to be a hunch.

But if there is an opportunity to improve [Mysterious Knowledge], Qin Ran will not let it go.

Picking up his backpack, Qin Ran walked out of the room and walked towards the first floor.

The information in front of him made it impossible for Qin Ran to judge whether there was such a facility as a public library, but Qin Ran believed that Herbert, who had the title of 'scholar', must have some books.

This was enough for Qin Ran.

And in fact?

The collection of books far exceeded Qin Ran's expectations.

In contrast to the second floor, which was full of guest rooms, the first floor, with the exception of a larger reception room, was occupied by Herbert's study.

The meeting room can only be said to be large if it is compared to the guest room.

How old is it?

It can accommodate six or seven people!

Qin Ran looked at it and came to such a conclusion.

More?

Sorry, I have to go down that narrow hallway.

And you can't walk side by side.

You can only stand alone, and when you pass by someone, you must turn sideways to give way.

And this small space is only to make more room for Herbert's book collection.

If there is any convenience, it means that you will not get lost.

In such a large house, there is only one hallway, which is a real blessing for anyone who has no clear sense of direction.

From one end of the corridor to the other, Herbert's study was reached.

A door that was not closed tightly made the sound of 'talking' in the study come from afar.

At least, with his extraordinary perception, Qin Ran heard this voice clearly when he just walked down the stairs.

Now I can hear it more clearly.

"Get out of here!"

"I don't welcome you streams. Hooligans, robbers! ”

A slightly old, but full of breath sounded.

"Stream. People? Bandit? ”

"We're here to apply for a guard!"

"Isn't that the news that you, the Herbert University scholar, published?"

The young, flirtatious voice asked rhetorically with a smile.

"I posted it!"

"But I'm hiring guards, real guards!"

"It's not a bunch of blackmailers, robbers, and bastards who do all kinds of evil!"

"Now, get out of here!"

"Otherwise, I'll call the police!"

Herbert warned.

But that didn't help.

On the contrary, it provoked the other party to laugh proudly.

"Police?"

"You're quite a short distance from the police station!"

"Guess how many bones you're going to have to break before the police arrive?"

The other party said menacingly.

"Even if I break a few, I won't hire you!"

Herbert had no intention of backing down and faced the other side head-on.

"Don't you even care about this trip to the ancient city of Aesop?"

"You know, there's gold!"

After the other party coerced, it turned into a profit. Lure.

"The important thing in the ancient city of Aesop is not gold!"

"And that's not a reason for me to compromise with you bastards!"

"I'd rather break a few bones than give you a penny!"

But no matter coercion, or profit. Seduction, Herbert is without any compromise.

Immediately, Qin Ran had a good impression of this 'scholar'.

Also, worry that those guys will get angry and cause unnecessary damage to Herbert and cause unnecessary damage to his main quest.

So, the next moment.

Qin Ran raised his hand and gently knocked on the door twice.

Knock, knock!

Then, push the door and enter.
