The Adventurer's Guild in Merlin Village provides adventurer equipment, which is a side hustle, so there are no obvious stalls, but the old adventurers are clear.

The alchemist named Lotus also knew this.

"Please give me a pack of flame powder, four packets of medium powder, a pack of lighting powder, no, two packs of lighting powder, and a dagger. Lian said to the young lady behind the counter.

"Okay, twenty-one Besso. ”

These things are available under the counter, but you don't need to pick them up anywhere else.

Chu Jing thought for a moment and said, "Please give me a full set of adventurer equipment, no weapons are needed." ”

The lady at the counter took out a package from under the cabinet and asked, "Is this okay for you to see?" There is a backpack with sleeping bags, rope, small torches, water bottles, two spare bags, if you need alchemy powder, you need to buy extra. ”

"That's fine, we have alchemists in our team. ”

Chu Jing felt that this was fine, he had everything in his mustard seed bag, and too many things were cumbersome to put on his body.

Lian seemed to want Chu Jing to prepare, but thinking of his strength, he felt that it was unnecessary.

"Fifteen besos in total. ”

Chu Jing's backpack is very cheap, after all, they are all commonly used things.

Then, the two looked at Xu Qian, and this time the reward was fifty-seven besos each, which was enough for Xu Qian to change some of the equipment used.

"Ah...... I need one arrow, no, two. Thinking of the number of underground monsters, Xu Qian felt that one arrow was definitely not enough.

The counter lady looked at Xu Qian suspiciously, and suggested: "If it's just one person, one arrow is enough, and twenty arrows can be recycled. ”

Xu Qian imagined the appearance of carrying two quivers on her back, and felt a little stupid, "Then one arrow will do." ”

"Okay, do you need anything else?"

Xu Qian shook her head, the reason why Lian bought a dagger was because she didn't want to be close to her, she had no means of attack, and Xu Qian herself had a dagger close to her.

"Okay, Fifteen Besso. ”

Xu Qian was stunned when she heard the price, "So expensive?"

"Twenty arrows and ten besos, and the quiver is five besos. ”

Xu Qian felt a little distressed for Besso, "That's okay to give me twenty arrows, I don't need a quiver." ”

Xu Qian's bow and arrows were all shot at the goblins, and she forgot to recycle them later, mainly because there were too many goblins at that time, and many arrows were broken and unusable, but her quiver was still intact.

"Okay, please pay ten besos. ”

After buying these things, and by the way, the information of the Wave Adventure Group was recorded, and the three of them packed some dry food in the bar, a compressed food made of wheat flour, sugar and milk, which tasted okay, and soaked it in hot water, it was even more delicious.

There are more monsters here that are humanoids, but it is not as convenient as the mainland to directly eat the flesh of demon beasts.

"Let's rest for the night, or go to the underground ruins now. ”

Lian suddenly asked Chu Jing.

This question caught Chu Jing off guard, and he was already about to leave the inn.

Xu Qian carefully put the twenty arrows in the quiver, and hurriedly had five more intact ones, adding up to a total of twenty-five, which made the quiver a little crowded.

"Let's go to the ruins, it's about the same day and night anyway. ”

After being full of wine and food, Xu Qian recovered and was full of energy again.

Chu Jing thought for a moment and understood, for them, the underground ruins were too few tasks that could quickly earn Besso, even if there were endless dangers there, they still drove the adventurers to go.

Adventurers are not an enviable profession, they are just as dangerous as gold diggers, and except for a few powerful and famous adventurers, the lives of other adventurers are not good, even hard.

"Then let's go to the ruins. Chu Jing decided.

Chu Jing also learned about the adventurer's difficulty by investigating the kobold's mission, and decided to use his own force to help the two adventurers accumulate some more beso.

Because it was starting to get dark, they didn't get back to the ruins as quickly as before, and by the time they reached the ruins, it was completely dark.

The entrance to the ruins was also brightly lit, with a few soldiers standing at the entrance of the cave with torches, while some adventurers lit bonfires nearby and began camping.

"Are you three going down?" asked one soldier, "at night, when monsters are at their most active, they are even more difficult to deal with. ”

Xu Qian confidently patted the bow and arrow in her hand and said with a smile: "It's okay, we have the strength to face some dangers." ”

With Chu Jing by their side, this is the reason why they dare to enter the underground ruins at night.

The soldier shook his head and said helplessly: "The adventurers now are so confident, and there are many adventurers below, if you encounter danger, shout for help, don't forget to shout for help." ”

The three of them thanked the soldiers for their kindness and went down to the underground ruins, this time Xu Qian led the way, and she still walked towards the path of the goblins, because that road had not been cleared by the adventurers, at least not the last time they went.

That place was not too far away, and Chu Jing also found that he was indeed suspected of going around in circles at that time, he should have arrived much earlier than the Star Adventure Group, but he didn't get rid of them.

"There may be danger after here. ”

Xu Qian whispered in front of her that after a life and death grind, this newly graduated ranger has also become mature and stable.

"What monsters have you ever encountered?" Chu Jing asked in a low voice.

Lian held the torch, her eyes looked around seriously, and replied in a low voice, "Nothing, the only swordsman with a little experience has died at the hands of the goblin." ”

This answer silenced both Chu Jing and Xu Qian.

After a long time, Xu Qian turned back to Chu Jing and said: "Actually, monsters are generally not very strong, just like goblins, even ordinary adults can be alone, as long as they don't encounter groups or too powerful monsters, there will be no danger." ”

Her words were more like comforting herself.

Adventurers can't just rely on accepting temporary employment from villagers, their main source is to clean up monsters, no matter what, Xu Qian must face monsters head-on.

Chu Jing didn't ask again, the lack of soldiers in the royal city of Luolie Island led to the need for adventurers to eliminate monsters, this is not only a problem of the system, but also related to many aspects, such as the treatment of their soldiers is far better than that of the Divine Continent, and the villagers here also have spare money to hire adventurers, and the monsters are more cunning and so on.

The existence of the adventurer, like the mercenary, was something that Chu Jing couldn't understand, but he was playing one of them.

"Wait!" Xu Qian suddenly stopped and whispered, "Listen carefully, there is movement." ”

Chu Jing's hearing is the best, but he is not so sharp, if it is not dangerous, he will never care too much about the wind and grass.

Now that he listened closely, he saw that there was indeed a small whisper.

"Over there, it should be a little mouse or something. ”

Chu Jing pointed in one direction with a torch.

Xu Qian took out an arrow, took out a vial, and quickly dropped a drop, dipping a little flame on the torch.

"Whoosh!"

The rocket was fired.

Only then did everyone see that in a small corner, a small thing quickly escaped.

"It should be a mole. Xu Qian breathed a sigh of relief, she was very nervous just now.

Lian also took the powder bag in his hand into his arms.

The pressure on the adventurers is too great, they are in danger all the time, and they must be refreshed or they will die at the hands of the monsters.

"Go ahead. ”

Lian said to Xu Qian that a little mole is not worth wasting too much time here.

The underground ruins were much larger than expected, and this place seemed to be an ancient city, but after so much time, even the iron had rusted and rotted, leaving only dust slightly different from the color of the earth.

In addition, the city has sunk into the ground, probably because of a catastrophe such as an earthquake, and most of the islands are in earthquake-prone areas, and the formation of the islands itself is probably very related to earthquakes.

"It's about 3,000 years old, and it's so badly damaged that there's no sign of any other human city except for the walls. ”

The lotus torch shone on the wall, and there were strange patterns on it, but no words were found.

Chu Jing sensed it, and there didn't seem to be any creatures nearby, and he relaxed.

In fact, even if there is any monster, he can deal with it at any time.

"How much do you know about that era?" Chu Jing asked Lian.

"I don't know, the royal city is said to have been established a thousand years ago, and all the history books are stored in the royal city, and all I know is legends. ”

There is no god who has lived on the island for 5,000 years, and it is not surprising that the events of thousands of years ago have not been handed down.

"What legend?"

"The dragons are the ones painted on the walls of the entrance. ”

Xu Qian saw the two talking in a whisper, and couldn't help but interject: "I know, I know, dragon, but the most powerful monster on Luolie Island, legend has it that thousands of years ago, a group of terrible demons rode dragons to Luolie Island, and were repelled by a strong man who lived in seclusion on the island, many dragons fell on the island, and after those demons fled, the dragons stayed." ”

Lian shook her head and said, "Those dragons that adventurers call their ultimate goal are nothing more than the mounts of those demons. ”

"Hmph, do you know how powerful dragons are? There are only three dragon slayers in the entire Adventurers' Guild. Xu Qian argued.

Chu Jing didn't understand it very well, and recalled the picture he saw on the wall, a man facing many people riding dragons, this should be that legend.

However, no one seems to know the whereabouts of those who rode the dragons, nor the whereabouts of the strong man who defeated them.

Chu Jing listened to the conversation between Xu Qian and Lian, and did not express his opinion, this is something that the entire Luolie Island knows, if Chu Jing still doesn't know, it will be too exposed.

Chu Jing is now pretending to be a resident of Luolie Island, and he should know the basic "common sense" just like the residents of Luolie Island.

The three of them didn't go very fast, but after a while, they went deeper.

"Front...... This time it's not the Mole. Xu Qian's face was solemn.

Chu Jing also heard a strange sound, as if it was ...... Snoring......

The three of them didn't flinch, they came here to kill monsters in exchange for payment, how could they retreat because they heard strange movements.

As I got closer to the source of the sound, I heard it more clearly, and it seemed that something was really snoring.

Lian looked at Chu Jing with some uneasiness, "Have you noticed that the space here is much larger than just now, which is very unfavorable to us." ”

Chu Jing also found that as he went deeper, the building space here was not as closed as before, but a little empty, as if he had just passed through a slum with limited space, and this was a normal street.

"Won't our torches be too obvious?"

Xu Qian showed a worried expression, listening to the voice, this seems to be a big guy, and it should be more difficult to deal with than a goblin.

"Without the firelight, we're at a disadvantage, so wait for me to cast a spell and light it all up. ”

Lian sprinkled lighting powder on the walls, and from here she could illuminate the entire space.

"On the other side of the darkness is the light, and the light will drive out all shadows, illuminate here, and bring light!"

The powder began to glow softly with the incantation, and the entire wall resembled a wall lamp.

Through the light, Chu Jing and the three of them finally saw the monster not far away, this was a monster lying like a human, he was at least three adults tall, and weighed more than ten ordinary people.

"It's a troll!" Lian's face became extremely ugly, trolls are relatively powerful among monsters, although they are far less than the legendary dragons, but they are not something that ordinary adventurers can deal with.

"It's over......"

Xu Qian's face was also pale, and she also recognized the troll.

Chu Jing looked at this big guy who was lying on the ground and snoring loudly like a human, its skin was gray, and it was even uglier than the troll Chu Jing imagined, and it was even more ...... Dirty, this big guy doesn't seem to have a shower in a long time, and although the smell is not very obvious, it looks very unclean.

The troll rolled over, and in the pitch darkness, it was uncomfortable to encounter a bright light.

"Get rid of the light. Xu Qian hurriedly whispered to Lian.

Lian shook her head slightly, not that she didn't want to, but that she couldn't do it, and the spilled lighting powder couldn't be recovered at all.

"Get ready for battle. Chu Jing said lightly, his backpack was placed on the ground, and his long sword was drawn, he was thinking about how much strength he had to use to defeat this monster that seemed to be "very powerful".

Xu Qian and Lian had no choice but to take a fighting posture, because the troll woke up.

The troll rubbed his sleepy eyes and straightened up, looking at the glowing wall.

"Roaring ......"

The troll let out an angry roar, and its eyes were bloodshot, and it seemed that it was not too angry to get out of bed.

The troll stood up and strode towards the glowing wall, completely ignoring Chu Jing and the others.

"Protect the wall, we can't deal with it in complete darkness!" Lian shouted.

Lian took out the flame powder again, took the torch, and blew it in the direction of the troll: "Where is the spirit of the flame, the creatures of the earth are in trouble, give me a little flame of purification, go!"

The flame powder caused the torch's flames to skyrocket, like a fiery snake, and it flew towards the troll.

Living in the dark fantasy of the underground for a long time, he hated the light, but he was still attacked by the flames, and he suddenly became irritable.

"Roar!"

The troll roared at the fiery serpent, and the flames were shattered.

The lotus was also affected, and her body shook backwards.

"Whoosh!"

An arrow shot out, with a "snort", and hit the troll's eye, blood splattered everywhere, and the arrow hung on it.

"Hit!" Xu Qian cheered.

"Don't be careless......," Lian reminded.

The troll's eye hurts, but it's not fatal, it just makes it more violent.

The five-meter-tall troll's head almost reaches the top of the top, and when it gets angry, it looks like King Kong in a zoo, stomping its foot and causing dust to fall from the surrounding walls.

Chu Jing stopped in front of Xu Qian and Lian, "You stand back, I'll deal with him." ”

Lian and Xu Qian took a few steps back to the edge of the glowing wall.

The warriors were meant to fight in front of them at the distance, and there was no objection to that.

Chu Jing took out a bit of strength, jumped up slightly, and slashed at the troll's chest with a sword.

Chu Jing only felt as if he had struck an object wrapped in dozens of layers of cowhide, and the long sword only cut through a few hairs on the troll's skin, completely unable to damage it.

"How is that possible, how can a troll's skin be so hard?!"

Chu Jing's strength is also about two and a half stars, or even three stars, he is a four-star strength, and one point of strength does not mean that he is very weak.

Even if this troll is taken to the Continent of Leaving the Gods, it is still a terrifying monster.

Chu Jing had to instill more internal force into the long sword.

At this time, Lian shouted loudly from behind: "With sword qi or sword light, ordinary swords can't break through the troll defenses!"

Sword Qi?

Chu Jing's strength was still very weak, and when he participated in the Dragon Gate Conference, sword qi was indeed a powerful means, but after fully mastering the strength of a higher realm, there were generally few people who used sword qi.

The release of sword qi is indeed the demarcation point of the realm, but the release of sword qi will also bring a waste of power, and the bells and whistles are generally linked to impracticality.

But the adventurers on Rollie Island seem to like the release of sword qi.

Chu Jing thought for a while and decided to use the sword mang, because the sword qi release was a higher internal force application than the sword mang, and Chu Jing still wanted to hide his true strength.

The troll smashed towards Chu Jing with a punch, his huge size, but his movements were very flexible, and he was definitely an extremely difficult opponent for ordinary adventurers.

Xu Qian's arrow had no effect except for the first arrow hitting the troll's eye, and it only tickled when it hit the troll's tough skin.

Chu Jing's long sword was attached to a layer of half-foot sword rays, and he slashed hard at the troll's smashed arm, and immediately a bloody mouth appeared, and dark green blood gushed out.

"Sword master, Chu Jing is really a sword master!"

Xu Qian was very excited, and looked at Chu Jing who was fighting with the trolls with admiration.

Lian didn't speak, but watched Chu Jing's every move seriously, she could feel that Chu Jing's strength was far stronger than what he was showing now, was he hiding something?
