Barritt walked out of the 'Ears Up' hotel after lunch.

The sky was clear outside, and the dark clouds had cleared for days. Barrett first stood still, relieved of the "nervousness" caused by the strange story, and then walked towards the Adventurers' Guild in the distance, ready to flip over some of the most cost-effective missions recently.

There were fewer pedestrians on the road than usual, and Barrett knew it was because a large gold mine had been discovered in the territory of the Falcon City-State, a human nation very close to the city-state of Muya.

Thousands of adventurers, merchants, craftsmen, and vagrants flocked to the gold mines. Although the large gold mine belonged to the Falcon City-State, certain merchants could also join forces and negotiate with the Falcon City-State to obtain the mining rights for some of the area and make a fortune from it. Adventurers or vagrants can also burrow like moles in other areas that are not forbidden in the hope of discovering some miracles.

Barrett didn't want to get involved in this kind of thing, and he thought that the reward he received for doing the task honestly was completely sufficient.

After passing past a shop called 'Ass Know' that sells all kinds of chairs, and a piano shop called 'Lyre' that sells lyre, the brute turns a corner and walks up the wide lilac avenue.

At this moment, a familiar voice suddenly stopped him, "Hey, Barritt of Nord!" The voice shouted behind him, "It's really nice to see you!"

The barbarian turned his head to look and found that it was actually the young men from the 'Good Helper' adventure team. At the head of the pack was 'Sir Fake' Weimar, who was followed by his friends William and Gary, but not the bow-wielding Blake.

"I knew you'd be fine!" Weimar said excitedly, a little embarrassed at the end, "I'm sorry, Barrett, we didn't choose to save you. ”

"It's fine. The barbarian waved his hand, not caring about this, "With your strength, it is only right to make the choice to leave, otherwise, everyone will be buried underground." He really thinks so.

Barrett, accompanied by the little mage Krees, went up to the surface to fetch the carrots, and found that only his mount was still under the huge ginkgo tree. At that time, he already knew about the departure of these young men.

"How did you escape from that horrible spider nest?" asked William, curiously, "Although this hypocritical creature said that you would be fine, at the time, we all thought that you had been swallowed by a huge number of spiders. ”

"It was a bit dangerous, but it wasn't a big deal for me. Barrett said lightly. "I ended up leaving the spider's nest through communication, or negotiation. ”

"If I'm not mistaken, is Mr. Barrett talking about negotiating with those spiders?" asked Gary, the goblin, a little puzzled.

"Yes. Barry nodded, "Brute force doesn't solve all the problems you encounter when you go on an adventure, and sometimes you need to work hard to use your brains and use your intelligence and experience to find a better solution." The brute pointed to his head. He loves to educate young people.

"Oh......" Weimar and the others replied blankly, not seeming to understand too much.

"Are you going to the guild to take a mission?" Barrett asked, "just along the way, and I'm going too." ”

"Not really. Weimar shook his head, "After the failure of the spider egg sac mission, we have only taken on a few simple tasks to get by. And Blake also left, leaving only a letter and left silently. He said he needed to find a quiet place to communicate with the panther statue. In fact, we were all a little worried about him, but we didn't know where to look for him. ”

"Then you are ...... now"

"We're going to get out of the city and go to the Falcon City-State. Weimar explained, "You've heard of that ......."

"Big gold mines? of course. "Even three-year-olds now know about it, and the parrots in the pet store are shouting 'gold,' 'gold.'" ”

"Is Mr. Barrett interested?" asked the goblin, "and it is said that more than one small or micro gold ore has been discovered, and even a large piece of gold ore has been picked up in the grass. ”

The brute shook his head, "No, I'm not going to get involved. Do you have such intentions?"

"Yes, we're getting ready to go. Weimar said, "Now there are only three of us in the team, and we can only take on some relatively simple tasks, which, you know, are not very rewarding, and we might as well try our luck in the falcon city-state." ”

There are too many people who think this way, but who does luck favor you?" After a few brief greetings with the 'good helper' adventure team they met, Barrett said goodbye to each other and went their separate ways.

Lilac Avenue is one of the main roads of the city-state of Muya, where the famous 'Yeda Opera House' is located. The largest opera house in the entire city-state of Muya had a weekly performance, but Barrett never heard of it. The Adventurers' Guild, on the other hand, is located at the intersection of Lilac Avenue and Magic Street.

As Barrett passed through an alley, an old troll burst out of the alley and stopped him.

"Human, come with me, and I'll show you something good. The old troll lowered his voice and looked nervously around.

The acting is not bad, and the expression is in place. However, "not interested. Barrett pressed his hand to the hilt of his sword, the threat speaking for itself.

"Hey, don't be nervous, don't be nervous, I don't have any ill intentions. The old troll took a half step back in fright, but he didn't give up, "That's right, I have a real treasure map here, and I can find the treasure of the fallen 'Rutan Kingdom'. It said in a low voice.

"If you've never heard of the Rutan Kingdom, can't you make up a kingdom or city-state that everyone is more familiar with?" Barrett said disdainfully.

"Haven't you heard?" the old troll was stunned, his expression did not seem to be fake, and he didn't speak for a long time, "The Rutan Kingdom, the second human kingdom established after the Holy Arazo, unified a large area in the north-central part of the continent all the way to the Mahuila Desert, and then in the Dark Ages, it could not withstand the repeated revenge of the alien race, so it was destroyed. Haven't you really heard of it?"

Barrett shook her head.

"Haven't you heard the proverb 'The giant snake devours the king, and the greedy wolf protects the lord'?" the old troll spread his hand, his expression a little helpless.

Of course I've heard that!" I'm not stupid.

"The Giant Serpent Devouring King refers to the second king of the Rutan Kingdom, who was swallowed by the giant snake he raised since he was a child when he was in his prime, which laid the groundwork for the fall of the kingdom. ”

"Oh, so what?" I'm not one of those old men in the kingdom's court who studies history.

"What I mean is that the Rutan Kingdom really exists. The old troll sighed, "And this treasure map in my hand shows the hiding place of one of the three treasures that were buried after the fall of the kingdom. For 100 gold, it's yours. ”

"In fact, not everyone can buy this treasure map, and I won't sell it to someone who is not strong enough at all, because it is just harming him. And I, the good troll of the city-state of Muya, Grivolta, would never do anything harmful. The old troll said solemnly, "I can see that you are a powerful adventurer, so I am relieved to sell it to you." Trust me, this treasure map will bring you untold riches!"
