Yui, who has become the weakest link in the whole team, is not depressed, but angry. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

As the best student at Ishuka School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, she never slagged behind in any activities, even the confrontation activities that she was not good at!

(The most important thing for a magician is not the ability to cast spells, but the intelligence and clarity of the mind, the abundance and practical knowledge.) ）

Recalling the principal's teachings, her mood gradually calmed down.

"I think we should put the resources and intelligence we have at hand. "Maybe you may encounter an enemy soon, so it doesn't hurt to be prepared in advance." ”

"There will be no enemies. "I asked when I went to receive the mission, and the castle was only haunted, but there had never been a ghost attack. ”

"But under normal circumstances, no one would enter this dilapidated castle. Of course, Yue would not be so easily refuted, and immediately pointed out the omission of the information, "So, who found out that this place is haunted, and why are they willing to pay adventurers to deal with the problems here?"

Everyone was silent, you look at me, I look at you, I don't know how to answer.

After a few seconds, the trainee soldier said with some uncertainty: "There is no information about the client in the mission information, but it seems that the remuneration is ...... Could it be that the villagers who felt uneasy had scraped together fifty gold coins to hire us?"

"If you were a villager, would you take out these fifty gold coins for the sake of the haunting of an ancient castle at least two miles away from the village, where many people are uninhabited?" asked Yui rhetorically.

"Of course not!" replied the young midshipman at once, the captain of the adventure party, "You're right!

A knight has a lot more to learn than a warrior who focuses on combat. Military, Command, Strategy...... Theoretically, a qualified knight is not only a master of combat, but also a team commander. Although this apprentice knight is not very high-level, if he is prompted to this point and does not realize the problem, then he is not even worthy of "apprentice"!

"If there had been no ghost attacks here, or if there had been attacks that didn't hurt anyone, the villagers wouldn't have been able to pay for something that wasn't relevant to their lives. The Trainee Knight pondered as he said, "What if this place is haunted? Goblins rarely leave their habitat to attack, so just avoid this side." Compared to fifty gold coins, it is obviously much easier and more cost-effective to avoid this area. ”

Everyone nodded their heads, and Yui couldn't help but smile.

She was a little worried about whether her teammates would be the kind of fools who don't pay for their lives, but now it seems that this worry is unnecessary. Although these virtual teammates lack combat ability and adventure experience, at least their minds are clear and not blind.

That's enough!

"Captain, do you mean that there have been ghost attacks and deaths here, so the villagers are very upset and hired us to deal with the ghosts?" the trainee soldier's eyes widened and exclaimed in annoyance, "They lied about the mission information, how dare they deceive a group of adventurers!"

"It's not necessarily the task that the villagers posted. The apprentice knight shook his head, "Like I said, even if there are ghosts here, even if there are dead people, so what?

"What does the captain mean...... The task is issued by someone who has a reason to approach or even enter here. "They've been attacked by goblins, and they're scared. But they had to come here again - so they had no choice but to ask the adventurers for help. ”

"Yes, that's the best possibility!" the midshipman nodded, "Theoretically, they wouldn't dare to cheat on the mission data, so it's probably true that no one here has ever been killed by a goblin attack." But this does not mean that there are no ghosts here or that the ghosts are weak, it is more likely that the attacked side reacted quickly and retreated in time. ”

"Is there such a quick reaction?" said the midshipman with a frown, "just ordinary people." ”

"What if they're not ordinary people?" sneered the midshipman, "who do you think needs to enter such a castle often?"

"Adventurers?" asked the priest.

The knight shook his head: "It's the people who do underground trading, many of their transactions are not visible, and they have to find some inaccessible places as trading places." This castle is not too far from the nearby town, and the villagers dare not approach it, so isn't it the best place to trade?"

When I said this, everyone became nervous.

Those who are not able to see the light of day business generally have some skills in their hands. Enemies who can make them retreat in a hurry, and even have to hire adventurers, may not be easy to deal with!

"That's what I think, so we need to be ready now. "Considering that the enemy may be a tricky character for the likes of smugglers, and would rather spend money than fight them, we need to be well prepared." ”

She paused, but she couldn't help but try to solve the problem more easily, and said, "Actually, we can retreat now and go back and ask the employer for detailed information...... It's a bit too difficult for us, and I'm afraid it's hard to guarantee that there won't be casualties. ”

The last sentence made everyone's faces gloomy, and even the more optimistic trainee soldiers couldn't help but frown.

"You're right, but...... We're out of money. The apprentice knight smiled bitterly and said, "I don't even have the money to go back to the city, so if I want to go back, I can only walk." And back in town, we don't have money to stay today - the Adventurers' Guild Hall doesn't offer free accommodation. ”

"And...... Even if the mission information is incorrect, the mission deposit will not be returned. The Apprentice Ranger sighed and said, "In addition to the cost of coming here, we also paid a deposit for the last bit of money, and borrowed some money from the Adventurers' Guild for this." At that time, it was agreed that the money would have to be repaid after three days at most, otherwise interest would have to be paid. If I go back now, I won't be able to complete any other tasks in three days...... At that time, you can only be disqualified as an adventurer. ”

Of course they can go back, but going back means losing their income and even losing their jobs.

Everyone, you look at me, I look at you, all of them are depressed.

(How can this group of people be so shabby!)

Yui couldn't help but sigh in his heart, but he had to put on a smile and try to comfort everyone.

Fortunately, her role as a "trainee mage" is probably not bad, and the effect of persuasion is not bad, and everyone's faces are gradually looking better.

After collecting their mood, everyone began to organize their things and prepare for a possible battle.

"How about you say we're setting fire to this castle?" the midshipman proposed.

"Theoretically, it should be possible. The trainee ranger's eyes lit up, "This castle is so dilapidated, it must have no owner." Even if there is a fire in the Borderlands, there is no one to do it!"

"What if there is a master?" asked the midshipman, "what if its master just doesn't like it?"

"If you have a master, you won't even have a maid to clean up. Said the Pastor Trainee.

"Maybe there was a servant, but he was killed by those guys who did **** business. Yoi sighed, "Or maybe...... What we have to deal with is the faithful servant who is obsessed with protecting his master's property even after he dies. ”

When they said this, everyone's hair stood on end, and the trainee soldier shouted: "Don't say such terrible things!

Yue sighed and shook his head, gesturing to the floor, "Didn't you notice? The floor here is old and a little broken, but not a single weed grows. This is impossible for the ruins, and the only explanation is that someone is taking care of it. ”

Everyone followed her fingers and looked around, and sure enough, not only could they not see a single weed, but they could not even see the relatively large dirty spots and thick stains.

Although this castle is dilapidated, it is actually quite clean inside.

As a result, everyone's face is even worse.

No one knew that there was a huge jellyfish phantom in the sky above the castle, watching here.

"Hey! I've really made the virtual experience infinitely terrifying!" Sui Xiong couldn't help but smile as he watched Yuyi's performance, "This little girl has a future!" )
