There is no doubt that this proud "fast hand" old thief does have outstanding strength that matches his pride. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

But Gerard didn't just take his advice and chose to work with him.

Experienced adventurers know that when choosing teammates, the first thing to consider is not strength, but character.

As adventurous teammates, they often need to help each other, and sometimes trust each other's lives. If your teammates are weak, be careful, and choose jobs with lower returns and lower risks, but if your teammates have bad character, it will be a tragedy!

Just like Sui Xiong played the game and formed a group to play a dungeon before he crossed over, it doesn't matter if the level of teammates is lower, I'm afraid it's a pitfall. The so-called "brother sword comes out and there is no brother" or something, and even became a famous allusion.

Gerald hadn't heard anything like "black gear", but as an experienced adventurer, he would never make the low-level mistake of a novice. If you don't have a teammate who is sure of your character, you'd rather not!

"Please help me check the mission history of this 'fast hand' Mr. Rennes. He told the waitress of the Adventure Guild, "Find out how many missions he's had, how many teams he's been in, how well he's getting along with his teammates, and how well he's accomplishing them." ”

Wren's eyes narrowed slightly, and a cold light flashed.

This giant, who at first glance looks a little young and innocent, is not at all as honest as he looks, and is unexpectedly quite sophisticated, which makes him faintly feel a little tricky.

Although he had been prepared not to show a flaw in this kind of thing, in the face of a cautious opponent, would his previous plan still be carried out smoothly?

The young waitress soon returned from the archives with an old document.

The information clearly reads: Wren, nicknamed Kuaishou, is extremely skillful, not only the top pickpocket, but also good at traps, traps, stealth and combat, and has participated in well-known adventure teams many times to assist teammates in successfully completing tasks. Outstanding performance, arguably the most powerful thief in the Four Towns area. He retired about 20 years ago, and he didn't know why he came back half a year ago, and his combat ability has declined, but his skills are still exquisite.

Gerald looked at this information carefully, this is a service unique to the Adventure Guild, and such a file is created for every adventurer who registers in the Guild and takes on quests. When needed, this dossier is the most reliable proof.

Judging from the archives, Wren is very reliable. But he was still a little worried, there was no reason, pure intuition.

"Senior Wren, you made enough money to retire twenty years ago, why did you come out again at this age?" he asked.

Wren was silent for a moment, hung his head, sighed deeply, but said nothing.

Not far away, among the middle-aged adventurers who were drinking, there was a quick-mouthed adventurer with a long tongue who said the reason: "It's not for his son! In order to lift the curse, he used the favors he had accumulated back then, and he owed a large sum of money. I have no choice but to try to earn a little more while these hands haven't started to tremble yet. ”

Gerald was taken aback, and turned his head to look, but saw that Wren did not deny it, but his expression was bitter, and there was a kind of heroic twilight desolation.

To be able to leave the name of "the strongest" in the archives of the adventure guild must have been a big man who stirred up the storm back then. Who would dare to attack his family in his prime! But now, he can only scatter all his family wealth to save his son's life, and he is also in debt for this, and has to return to the dangerous adventurer life with an aging body, which is not only desolate, but extremely depressed.

Gerald also noticed that Rennes' mission resume in the past six months was hardly worth mentioning. In other words, although he returned to his old job, he never found some decent work.

During these days, the pressure he has been under can be imagined!

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sigh deeply and pat the old thief on the shoulder.

"Don't worry, everything will be fine!"

Wren nodded, and reluctantly laughed twice: "I usually wait here for work, if you are ready, come and call me, you can leave at any time." ”

"I don't think you look like a rookie, so you don't need me to explain what you need to prepare when you go out. ”

With that, he walked towards an empty table next to him, and sat there motionless, not even ordering a glass of wine.

Gerald was silent for a few moments, then turned to go out the door.

Your teammates are already there, so just get what you need to go out.

"Be careful. Sui Xiong's voice sounded in his heart, "Although I can feel that these people are not lying, don't you think something is wrong?"

Gerald was taken aback, it was the first time he had encountered a situation where even His Majesty Oscar was hesitant, it was like going all the way to a South Korean Internet café to watch his admired e-sports professional master play a practice match, only to see his idol beaten by a Chinese game commentator with blood on his face.

In an instant, the whole person was not good.

"Your Majesty...... I'll be careful......"

Sui Xiong nodded, yawned, and did not delve into the topic further.

The wind in the sky was so warm and the sun was so bright that he was so sleepy that he was already half asleep.

Gerald went straight to prepare the items he needed for the adventure, mainly a camping paraphernalia, as well as things that might be used to go down the crypt, as well as various consumables.

The three space bags captured from the orc wolf cavalry were of great help, and he purchased enough for ten people to use two months' supplies in one go, and slowly filled the three space bags.

As for the commonly used healing, detoxification and other potions, as well as low-level spell scrolls and so on, I didn't prepare too much because of the price. Although he has made a fortune, he is still a poor man in his bones and does not like to spend a lot of money.

After buying consumables, he ran to the blacksmith again. The dwarven "wrought iron" lives there temporarily, and the dwarf who promised to help him build a weapon is helping to craft some simple iron tools to restore his feel as a blacksmith. When Gerard visited, he said that his feel had not fully recovered, and he could not create a satisfactory weapon for the time being, so he could only make an improvisation of inferior goods first.

Of course, Gerald has no opinion on this, the inferior quality of the dwarves is actually a good weapon, at least it is enough for ordinary use.

Dwarves are not naturally better at blacksmithing, they are generally strong and well-adapted to high temperatures. This is a good foundation for the craft of blacksmithing. In addition, dwarves live almost twice as long as humans on average, which means that young dwarves have more time to hone their skills, and older blacksmiths are able to teach more apprentices in their lifetimes.

The combination of various reasons has created a gold-lettered signboard of "dwarf forging, must be a high-quality product".

Wrought iron is not very old, less than fifty years old is still a young man among the dwarves. His blacksmithing skills can only be said to be good, compared to ordinary human blacksmiths, it is nothing more than more strength, can forge red-hot iron blocks more densely, and make weapons stronger. He has not yet been able to master those high-level skills that really need to be precipitated over the years.

What he built for Gerald was a giant battle axe. The handle of the axe is made from a whole log, which is peeled and burned, and finely polished, and finally wrapped around the hides to ensure that it holds securely in the hand. The axe is made of wrought iron, and the blade part is clad steel, which is unusually sharp.

"Actually, you should first make an axe core out of steel and then wrap it in iron, so that you can better transfer power. "But it takes quite a bit of time to make a tomahawk like that." I see you're in a hurry, so let's make do with this first. ”

For this axe, Gerald paid 1,300 gold coins, 400 gold coins for wrought iron, 600 gold coins for steel, 100 gold coins for logs, 100 gold coins for consumables such as charcoal fire, and the last hundred gold coins for the help of the craftsmen.

As for the wrought iron himself, he didn't get a penny, and only told Gerald to use this axe to chop some more bad things.

"When fighting, count my share. That's what he said.

By the time Gerald left the blacksmith's shop, he had already put on a sturdy tunic made of canvas, and the special sturdy leather belt formed a hook behind his back, so that the ridiculously large tomahawk could be easily carried behind his back without hindering his movement in the slightest.

The entire battle axe weighed nearly four thousand catties, a terrifying weight that made even dragons shy away when it was wielded, and even giants known for their strange power rarely had the power to wield such a heavy weapon. But it seemed to be the right weight in Gerrard's hands, neither so heavy that it would lose its agility, nor so light that it would make it difficult for him to exert his strength, just right.

When Gerald returned to the Adventure Guild with the giant battle axe on his back, everyone in the guild froze. Some young adventurers couldn't resist even leaning over to talk, just to get a closer look at this unheard-of massive weapon.

"If you take this, even a dragon can fight!"

"Are you kidding? What does it mean to be able to fight'? If you are slashed by this axe, even if it is a dragon, half of your life will be removed!"

"If you smash it down with the back of an axe, even the walls of the city can be destroyed...... No wonder the giant is called a 'living siege vehicle', its power is so powerful!"

"If I had the power, it would be great!"

"Don't dream, if you are as powerful as him, then all your belongings will not be enough to eat for a few days......"

Amid giggling laughter, Gerald handed the waiter in charge of the bar a few gold coins and shouted, "Have a drink, please and good luck with it!"

In the midst of laughter and blessings, he took Palin, who was a little dizzy from reading a book, and Wren, who was so withdrawn from the living, that he left the adventure guild and headed towards the secret treasure of the orc wolf cavalry according to the location that Sui Xiong had searched from the memory of the "Bloody Hand" Ruhr.
