Chapter 31: First Arrival in Peicheng

Leave only a note!

"Grandpa, Dad, Mom, I'm sorry! Lan Lan really wanted to see the outside world, and she wanted to be with Brother Chen, but everyone disagreed, so I had to leave secretly. You don't have to worry about my safety, I'm a three-star magician myself, and in addition, I also asked Xiao Hei to accompany me. So, I'll take good care of myself, don't worry! Brother Chen, I'm waiting for you in Peicheng! ”

Seeing the note left by Lan Lan, Huo Chen couldn't cry or laugh, there was really no way. After comforting and promising to let Lan Lan come back as soon as he saw her, Huo Chen stayed with them for two more days before leaving the village.

Before leaving Zhuge Village, Huo Chen tried to go to the underground space again, wanting to get his hands on the purple lotus that was not yet ripe. However, the underground fire demon is really too alert, and it may be that he almost lost the purple lotus last time, and the underground fire demon has always wandered around the purple lotus. Huo Chen waited in the underground space of the cave for more than two hours, but he really had no chance to get close, so he had to return to the ground. I can only wait for the strength to become strong in the future, and then come and take this purple lotus.

However, with the help of Xiao Gray's sensitive sense of smell, Huo Chen discovered another Earth Flame Demon Iron Mine, which was excavated by only one person, and it took a lot of effort to dig it out, but the harvest was quite large.

Huo Chen went to the place where Xiao Zi lived again, but Xiao Hei was really not there. After explaining that Xiao Zi would protect the villagers and promise that he would come back to see it when he had time and make a delicious barbecue for it, Xiao Zi promised Huo Chen to let him go.

In this way, Huo Chen left Zhuge Village, where he had lived for sixteen years, and embarked on an unknown journey, no matter how difficult and dangerous the road ahead, it could not stop his progress.

Ten days later, on the second floor of the Mingyueju Restaurant in Peicheng, which was closest to the City Lord's Mansion, a young man dressed as an ordinary adventurer was sitting by a window, and the food on the table was already cold, but he had no intention of leaving. Listening thoughtfully to the chatter here, this person was Huo Chen.

Huo Chen had already arrived in Peicheng two days ago, and he didn't go directly to Zhao Kang and them, nor did he go to the City Lord's Mansion, let alone directly inquire about Lan Lan's whereabouts. Instead, he came to Mingyueju, according to the locals, Mingyueju is the best restaurant in Peicheng, and the flow of people here is very large, which means that the news here is the most well-informed.

Through two days of careful inquiry, Huo Chen also had a general understanding of the basic situation of Peicheng. As the census of the City Lord's Mansion was in full swing, other major forces were also secretly searching, and more and more hidden villages were discovered. According to incomplete statistics, there are at least 5,000 more people in Peicheng now than before. Among them, a lot of talented young people were also discovered, but most of them were recruited by the City Lord's Mansion, and a few of them flowed into the four major forces.

In the past two days, Huo Chen also heard the news of Zhao Kang's six people, the strength of these six people is good, and they have all reached the level of bright warriors, among which Zhao Kang has even reached the one-star glory warrior, and has been warmly welcomed by the City Lord's Mansion, and these six people have been organized into a group and joined the City Lord's Mansion Guard.

Hearing this news also made Huo Chen very happy, being able to get the reuse of the City Lord's Mansion was also the first step to success. It's just that Huo Chen didn't hear anything about Lan Lan, not even Xiao Hei.

Could it be that Lan Lan and Xiao Hei got lost and didn't come to Peicheng? However, Huo Chen didn't worry too much, because last year, Xiao Hei also followed Xiao Ash and signed a magic contract with Huo Chen, through the magic contract, Huo Chen could clearly feel that Xiao Hei was very safe. Then with Xiao Hei, an eighth-level peak demonic beast, and Lan Lan, a senior pharmacist, he will be respected wherever he goes. Perhaps, it is really the two of them who are lost, so they can only inquire about the news slowly.

After learning about Peicheng's situation, Huo Chen returned to his room and thought carefully about what to do next. Huo Chen first released Luna and Xiao Ash from the Hongxi Ring, and neither of them was very willing to stay in the Hongxi Ring, mainly because it was too stuffy inside. As soon as there is a chance, Huo Chen will release them, even if he chats with Huo Chen for a while, he is extremely satisfied.

"Brother Chen, can you not put me in the Hongxi ring space in the future? It was suffocated inside, and no one spoke to me. This little stinky rat, no matter what you say to it, it will just nod its head, shake its head, and die of boredom. As soon as she released Luna, she complained.

"My lord, don't listen to her, she can't understand what I say, so I can only nod and shake my head! Besides, she is also too grinding, a question can be asked to me eighty times, it is really grinding! Xiao Ash's complaining voice also sounded in Huo Chen's mind.

Hearing Xiao Ash's words, Huo Chen really couldn't answer, and Huo Chen also deeply understood Luna's grinding.

"No, Luna, this is not a barren primeval forest, it's a crowded city. I'm not even familiar with the situation here, and the sign of your elf is so obvious that if you let someone see it, it will invite disaster. Like you said, when you grow up and can transform into a second form, you can maintain your human form, and then I won't put you in the Hongxi Ring, okay? Huo Chen patiently enlightened Luna, and this conversation happened more than once.

"When I grow up, when I grow up, I say that every time. I'll have to wait until my warrior level reaches the level of Glory Warrior, and my mage level reaches that of Magi, when will I have to wait! I don't care, I don't want to stay in the Hongxi Ring anymore! Luna said angrily.

"Luna, good, if this is not good, anyway, we are also in Peicheng, I will go to the Adventurer's Guild to issue a quest to find the illusion fruit, the main thing can be news, we will help you find it as soon as possible, okay?" Huo Chen took the trouble to enlighten Luna.

"Alright then, Brother Chen, you have to hurry up, Luna is really boring!"

"Don't worry, Luna, as soon as we have news, we'll collect it, and we'll let Luna leave the Hongxi Ring as soon as possible! I promise! ”

In order to reassure Luna, Huo Chen simply cleaned up, put Luna and Xiao Ash in the Hongxi Ring, and went out to find the Adventurer's Guild.

"Dear adventurer, how can I help you?" The reception at the front desk of the Adventurer's Guild is still very beautiful, and the attitude is also in place.

"Eh, I want to post a task, how do I do it?" The first time Huo Chen came in, he was really confused about the various processes.

"Dear adventurer, do you have the badge of the Adventurer's Guild?"

"Adventurer's Guild Badge? What's that? ”

"That's right, esteemed adventurer." The receptionist at the front desk still maintained a smile like a spring breeze, "Whenever you post or accept a quest in our Adventurer's Guild, you need a magic badge, which records the progress of the quest you posted, or the progress of your quest. After completing the mission, we will increase your adventurer level. Depending on the level, the level of the mission that can be accepted is also different. ”

"That's right, but what I didn't do?" Huo Chen has just arrived in Peicheng, where to get the badge of the Adventurer's Guild.

"Dear adventurer, it's okay, I can take you to apply for a magic badge so you can post and accept the quest." This front desk welcomes countless adventurers every day, and this process is well understood.

"Okay, thank you!"

"Dear adventurer, please follow me!"
