Chapter 171: The God of Wealth Tavern
Without Renault to speak, the bartender, who was good at observing words and expressions, saw that he was unwilling to undertake this task, and immediately changed his words: "The level of this task is lower, but the focus is on safety, of course, if you think the pay is low, then ......" He pointed to the task scroll leaning on the front row: "This is the highest level I have here, hunting and killing the golden worm in the underground tunnel, but it is close to the boss level of the lord elite monster, and the dangerous difficulty reaches level B, however, it is not suitable for novice mercenaries, unless you team up with senior mercenaries ......"
"No," Renault interrupted, "I want an S-Class mission. ”
"S-class?!" The bartender's mouth opened wide, as if he had heard something unbelievable, and then changed from surprise to sneer: "What a joke, A-level and above missions must be completed by a team, and I only sell single-player missions with the highest B-level here." Moreover, A-level or above missions must hold VIP armbands recognized by major guilds before they can be undertaken. Do you have one? ”
"The S-class was picked up upstairs, right?" Renault dropped the sentence and walked straight to the stairs.
Since you don't have an S-Class mission here, then I won't ramble with you, Renault thought to himself.
"Please, did you understand me?" The bartender was a little anxious, he jumped out of the wine cabinet one by one, and stopped between Renault and the stairs: "Don't make a mistake, the upstairs is a place for VIP customers to go, and you are not allowed to enter without a VIP armband issued by the guild headquarters." ”
"What if I have to go up?" Renault said viciously.
The bartender was stunned for a moment, but he quickly regained his composure, and he repeatedly told himself that this was his own territory, and no one dared to go wild here. But when he met Renault's brilliant gaze, the courage he had finally mustered was immediately lost. "Unless...... Unless you can prove that you are good enough to accept S-class missions, ......"
"How do you prove it?" Renault stretched out his iron fist hidden in the sleeve of his robe and squeezed it in front of the snobbish bartender, and immediately a popping sound like fried beans sounded in his ears, and the bartender's face turned blue instantly. Experience told him that the handsome and delicate young man in front of him contained a terrifying strength that did not match his size. The calmness that he had barely pretended before turned into horror in an instant: "You...... You...... Are you threatening the entire Fortuna Tavern? ”
Renault wrote lightly: "Just to scare the snobbery of dogs looking down on people." With that, he left the bartender who was as stunned as a wooden chicken and walked to the stairs.
From the fact that the bartender only has the highest B-rank mission, Renault knows that he is just a nobody in the tavern, and hiding the B-class mission as a treasure shows the essence of the frog at the bottom of the well, and this kind of person is basically bluffing. Not to mention the threat, it is to teach this guy who looks down on people for a lesson, and I believe that the God of Wealth Tavern will not dare to do anything to him. It's just that Renault has important things to do, so let's not see this kind of villain in general.
The second floor is a different scene, there is no worldly atmosphere on the first floor, more elegance and solemnity, and there is no obstruction on the stairs, and those mercenaries who think that they will not go up to the ground floor are very conscious, so there are two possibilities: one is that the background of the tavern is large enough, and the other is that the tasks above A level are perverted enough. Either way, it wasn't a good thing for Renault, but he had no choice.
Renault was greeted by a middle-aged man who looked like a butler, more calm than the previous bartender. It was not because Renault did not wear a VIP armband that he was rejected, on the contrary, the enthusiasm made people a little embarrassed.
Knowing that Renault came to the tavern for the first time to accept the mission, the middle-aged guest still couldn't hide a trace of surprise, and he hurriedly said: "I'm sorry, our tavern has a rule that players who take the task for the first time must not exceed the D level, and if you want to accept the task above the B level, you must complete a certain number of tasks in advance." Seeing that the other party was displeased, he hurriedly explained: "This is also to protect the safety of the mercenaries and avoid jumping over the level to challenge difficult tasks." If you are confident in your own strength, you can ask a celebrity to vouch for it, and we will let you choose the assignment as well. ”
Celebrity Guarantees? Renault smiled secretly, it is not unreasonable for the God of Wealth Tavern to surpass other peers, but it can be seen from the task control that the God of Wealth Tavern is not unreasonable for the safety of mercenaries. Many mercenaries who don't know the height of the sky think that they think that "Lao Tzu is invincible in the world" when they defeat a few elite monsters, and the challenge in their eyes is not suitable for their own tasks, and they naturally fail and die.
Many black-hearted taverns are counting on mercenaries to take on tasks beyond their capabilities, and failure means that the deposit is forfeited, and some black-market taverns even pay to hire fireworks girls with heavy makeup to encourage those stupid mercenaries to take on such tasks.
The hierarchy of the Fortuna Tavern offends the self-respecting mercenaries, but more people who understand it choose it as their long-term partner.
Therefore, the Fortuna Tavern was still relatively bleak when it first opened, but as time went by, there were constantly repeat customers who became the fresh blood of the tavern, and although the other black-hearted taverns made a profit for a while, when the stupid people who crossed the challenge died, the business immediately plummeted.
However, the founder of the Fortuna Tavern was quite wise, and he was well aware of the imperfections of the hierarchy.
For those mercenaries with super strength, the hierarchy hinders them from making money quickly to level up, and for such people, time is the most precious, and they will not waste a lot of energy on the accumulation of low-level tasks for the sake of the so-called hierarchy.
Therefore, in order to cater to the strong mercenaries in this area, the guarantee system was introduced, as long as it was a well-known figure in Ebudera, he guaranteed the strength of the mercenaries with his own reputation and personality, and the God of Wealth Tavern directly let them choose the mission level. After completing a high-level one, the opponent's level points will be increased accordingly. With level points, you don't need to be guaranteed by others next time you take on a mission.
Renault: "I have a celebrity guarantee. ”
The middle-aged receptionist said, "Oh, is it a direct guarantee or is there a letter signed by him?" ”
Renault: "Direct guarantee." ”
"Who is it, where is he, to be able to get him to come and gossip, we have to verify that he meets the conditions of our guarantee."
Renault smiled and said, "Far away in the sky, close in front of you." ”
"Yourself?!" Middle-aged hostesses hardly believe in their ears, how can they vouch for themselves.
"Do you have a rule here that you can't vouch for yourself?" Renault asked.
"Of course there is no such rule, it's just that 'celebrities' are never short of money, so how can they come here to accept mercenary tasks for a little money?" The words of middle-aged hospitality are not bad at all, it is difficult to be called a "celebrity" without great power, and those with great power must have wealth that ordinary people cannot have. Common sense says that "celebrities" are not willing to be mercenaries.
Renault said very freely: "I was not short of money before, but I lost a huge fortune of 40 million yuan in an underground auction two days ago, so I was reduced to the point of taking a job to supplement my family." ”
Two days ago? Million? The two pieces of information that Renault revealed intentionally or unintentionally immediately reminded him of the lace news that has been making a lot of noise in the past few days.
"Are you the rich man who spends a lot of money?" The middle-aged receptionist was full of disbelief in his eyes, and only then did he notice that the other party's name was the rumored "Renault". It can't be the same name and surname, right? He thought, and asked, "What proof do you have to prove that you are that rich man?" ”
"Isn't my name proof?"
"It's not uncommon to have the same name and surname, what I need is other proof, such as a dark gold invitation from the underworld, or a badge certificate from the Sword of the Holy Fire."
The so-called badge certificate is equivalent to a store's opening pass. Generally speaking, it is stored on the body of the family member, it is unique, so in a sense, it is also a kind of identification.
"It's unfortunate that neither of these things is on me." Renault said lightly.
Sure enough, it's a liar! The middle-aged receptionist thought secretly, but the professional etiquette did not make him say such rude words, after all, if the other party was really a legendary character, the consequences of offending him were not something that an ordinary worker could bear.
A dark golden color shook in front of him, and the middle-aged hostess's gaze was attracted by what was in front of him. At the same time, Renault's voice sounded in his ears: "This should prove my identity." ”
That dark gold was the heart of the riot that Renault had won at auction. The status of the middle-aged entertainer is not high, but the vision is still a little, and at first glance it can be seen that it is the legendary quasi-artifact - the Riot Demon Heart, even if the appearance can be imitated, but the attributes are real, and they can't be copied at all, so ......
The middle-aged hostess bowed respectfully 90 degrees, and said in a professionally trained tone: "Welcome to the God of Wealth Tavern, if you need anything, please say directly, we will provide you with the highest level of service, Lord Renault." ”
Renault was also polite and walked straight into the VIP room. As soon as he sat down, a young and beautiful woman came in with a cup of fragrant coffee, "Please, Dear Lord Renault, this is our special homemade freshly ground coffee." The woman carefully put down her cup and said.
"Isn't this a tavern? How do you treat a guest to coffee? Renaud took a sip, there was a hint of bitterness hidden in the fragrance, in the real world, this is also a high-grade coffee, and it is a rare product in the Creation God Domain.
The middle-aged receptionist stood beside Renault, leaning forward slightly, which was a sign of respect: "For high-level players who serve as A-level or above missions, this tavern has a clear rule that alcoholic beverages are not allowed to be actively served. ”
"Are you afraid that I'll get drunk and make a mistake?" Renaud smiled, in fact, he preferred the taste of coffee to fine wine, bitter and fragrant, which is a portrayal of life.
Seeing that Renault did not mean to be unhappy, the middle-aged entertainer finally breathed a sigh of relief. "So, please flip through our mission book."
Renault took the book with the gold cover that was given to him, which was a special book for recording various A-level tasks. Renault quickly flipped through the pages while sipping coffee, and the hostess on the side was shocked by his speed and broke out in a cold sweat - he had never seen Renault flip through the pages with ten lines at a glance like this.
It's not that Renault is cool, in fact, he doesn't care about the specifics of the task, but focuses on the number of mission rewards, which is where Renault pays attention.
