Chapter 2 The shuffle of the treasure hunting world

It quickly became clear who had attacked the Great Council Chamber, and the answer was accurately guessed that day: Sean James, a runemaster with a deep hatred for Aria. The people www.biquge.info of the Pen, Fun, and Pavilion were talking and speculating with each other, and no one knew how he managed to punch thousands of runes into the cube stones of the Great Council Chamber, but he did it, and detonated it at the Treasure Hunter Conference, causing a great earthquake in the treasure hunting world.

Lange and I returned to the Treasure Hunter headquarters, and the moment I entered, I looked up at the Treasure Hunter's emblems: crossed shovels and hand axes. The atmosphere in the headquarters seems to be a bit lively, and I always feel a cheerful atmosphere spreading here.

First of all, let's introduce the Treasure Hunter Headquarters, which is a large organization that specializes in providing skills training for those who are penniless, and cultivating a rookie who will owe a lot of money to this headquarters, and then the headquarters will get a piece of the pie from those rookies' road to gold. Only hunters who could rely on their prestige to attract business could bypass the headquarters, and of course most of those hunters were now dead or still dying on a pile of rocks or beds.

Lange and I quickly understood the reason for the happy atmosphere: the old headhunter was dead, and we rookies were going to get more life.

Lange slapped his thigh, and the smile on his face was from ear to ear: "Grandma's, this blow up ・・・・・・ we are going to be transferred." ”

A hunter who knew him heard his voice, turned around and smiled, "Isn't this the Iron Hand Lange? You haven't even passed the three tribulations, and you still want to transfer?"

Lange cursed, and he and I went back to our small room: two straw mats side by side, nothing else. Of course, this is also provided by the headquarters, and Lange and I are both in debt to the headquarters.

Langer was happy now, he had exchanged the medal for three Giant Eagle Coins, which was enough for him to live a good life for a few days. And I haven't dealt with the black jade ring yet, because I'm not short of money right now, and to be honest, I like it, though it's a bit of a disadvantage to wear it on my poor finger.

"Why did you say that rune master blew up so many people?" Lange lay on the straw mat, finally caring about the matter.

In fact, I didn't understand the grievances and entanglements of the upper echelons, so I replied indiscriminately: "Maybe he doesn't like us to run to the Western Regions." ”

"Phew. Lange killed a Xiaoqiang and scolded: "He is not alone in such a large place, why don't you let us go." ”

"Those literate people are very weird, let's not care so much, there must be a lot of work to do tomorrow, go to bed early. I stretched and went to sleep, while Lange was still smirking in the dark as he touched the three gold coins.

The bleak moonlight shone on the smoky Don River, and I stepped out of the boat and looked at the people in front of me, both familiar and strange. His name is Duke Targris, my future master, my future lord.

"Thor, follow the master well, my father can only help you get here. "My father, who was only thirty-five years old and already covered in silver threads, was a man of few words, and he only said these words to me and stepped onto the boat, leaving me alone in a strange world.

Yes, my father can only help me get here. I have had a dream of being a magician since I was a child, but for a farmer's child, this is like the stars in the sky. My father sent me to the Duke of Targris at the age of six, and I never saw him again, and when I returned to my hometown much later, I learned that two years later he had died in a barbarian invasion. Beside the grassy stone tomb, I vowed never to give up my vow to become a magician.

The Duke of Targris was very kind to me, he didn't give me a lot of work, and I learned to read and write and learn some rudimentary magic while accompanying his son. But the good times did not last long, and the Duke of Targris fell ill and died, and his brother took over his inheritance, and I was relieved of my obligations and became a free man, the freedom to have nothing.

It was during this period that the "Black Gold Empire" of Aria rose to prominence, and after listening to countless pub tales and bard legends, I came to Aria and became a treasure hunter・・・・・・

My mind was still drowning in the illusion of the past when Langer woke me up, and I cursed and got up in a daze. Lange looked in high spirits, swept away the decadence of half a month, and the enterprising adventurous spirit of the treasure hunter was revived in his blood.

We walked to a wide hall, and the groundwater was continuously drawn up by a floating orb into the ditch. We took the water in mid-air, washed our faces briefly, and then went down to the headquarters hall to see if there was any work.

"Hey, Thor, and the big brother next to you, do you have any work to do in the Moldes Mine?" a big man with a black face with a stubble asked us, his name is Sain Hank, I went on my first treasure hunt with him, he is the right-hand man of the headhunter Hu Ke, he is a good headhunter, he has taught me a lot, but the famous Hu Ke may have been killed yesterday, and now it looks like Sain is going to become the new headhunter.

I searched my mind for information about Moldess, a dwarven abandoned mine, large in scale, but not much rich, many people have been there, but now there are more dark creatures there.

Lange looked at me at me in bewilderment, glaring at me for an idea, I knew Thorn's ability and courage, and I didn't know what information he had to confirm that there was still treasure worth visiting.

"Don't hesitate, it's just right for a rookie like you, and the commission is considerable, thirty Giant Eagle Gold Coins, if you want to go, you can make a decision now. There were already six or seven people gathered next to Sain, and it looked like they were ready to go, while Lange was already quite unhappy with his rookie bite.

I was relieved to hear this number, I could give two rookies sixty Giant Eagle Gold Coins, I'm afraid that Molders really left something good. As a digression here, generally speaking, treasure hunting activities are organized by headhunters, they have information and money, and negotiate the price before going out hunting, but if they are successful, there is a reward after returning, and at the same time, the windfall in the treasure hunt is also an important source of money for treasure hunters.

"Yes, when will you go?" I asked.

Half an hour later, under the West Gate Bridge. Sain left with the rest of the group, dropping two gold coins to the HQ staff, because Lange and I were treasure hunters registered at HQ, and all hunting HQ would pluck their feathers.

Lange and I took the time to borrow a whole set of gear from headquarters: dry rations, ropes, sleeping cloaks・・・・・・ and of course, shovels and axes necessary for treasure hunters. Half an hour later, Lange and I arrived at the West Gate Bridge as promised, and a group of nine people set out on the road to Moldes.
