【Location: Abandoned Crypt】

[This is the name of a gloomy black hole located on the outskirts of the northern side of the imperial capital.] 】

[History———— it originally had another name, the Dilanr Mine. It produces a strange birdless stone, which Dillanar named Terra Ore. Dylan is a goblin and is a merchant. With its near-miraculous talent for business, it has opened up a sanctuary for its people in the realm of men, and at that time, the two great enemies of the elves and dragons, the mortal enemies of the Terrans, were solid allies of the Terrans, and in this case, the Goblin Merchant was able to do this to this extent... It is unbelievable that this life can be called great. Later, the demons ravaged the imperial capital, and in the process of being chased and killed by the imperial god Renault, he passed through the mines of Dilaner, and then some cruel things happened. Ninety percent of the goblins were killed or wounded, and their Dilanr disappeared, and they gradually disappeared without the protection of Dilan, maybe they were already dead....]

Zhao Xiaoqian stood in front of the abandoned crypt with a turtle on his shoulder, and he squinted at the black hole-like entrance ten zhang away.

After he tore open the private scroll, he took on a quest, followed the guidance of the quest to the black hole, and then unlocked the above terrain information. Frankly speaking, he didn't understand either the newly unlocked terrain information or the mission instructions he received before. To be precise, I don't know what I'm up against.

There are so many unknowns, and this feeling of being headless makes his sense of security very weak.

[Quest - The strange wail of the abandoned crypt.] 】

[The Abandoned Crypt was once a gathering place for the Goblins, but after they disappeared, this land with no apparent interest became a dead and desolate land. The low-level people who are running for life, the businessmen who are running for profits, the nobles who are running for power, and adults with all kinds of labels don't have the extra effort and heart to pay attention to here. It's so lonely in this suburban land, well... Occasionally, a little naughty little kids visit here. In fact, it is a mecca for adventure for children, and legends about it are widely circulated among the children's community. These legends originated from their busy parents, and they usually appeared when they did not sleep well at night, did not eat well when eating, or stole money from the family. For example———— "I promise, if you disobey like this, I'll throw you little bunny into that crypt and let the evil skeletons tear you to pieces!! "Hmm... That's about it. The various versions of the legend make children frightened and curious at the same time about this mysterious crypt. These immature juvenile humans don't have the troubles of life, so they are always full of exploration. 】

[Recently, there has been a strange wailing sound here.] This scared the children and excited them at the same time.... It is also a great headache for their parents. All you need to do is explore the place, pinpoint the source of the wailing, and silence it. In this case, there will be a lot of people who have a crush on you... Well, parents who have saved time looking for their kids everywhere at meals should thank you. 】

"Do I have to go into this black hole?" Zhao Xiaoqian pointed to the entrance of the crypt that exuded an ominous aura, and asked the turtle on his shoulder with a sideways face. "What do you think is going to be in there? skeleton warriors, horror banshees or something... It feels like this kind of thing is going to happen. ”

The turtle blinked and tried to look at the crypt, but it was apparently in vain. The cavern was as dark as a demon's throat, and the sunlight could only shine a few paces inside, and farther away the light was completely engulfed in darkness. The cave was enveloped in a strange aura of disorder, and its mind could not nor penetrate deeply, much to the tortoise's discomfort. It's as if someone with deep myopia has had their glasses removed... Facing Zhao Xiaoqian's question, the turtle shook its head, it didn't intend to draw conclusions without reliable clues, but relying on those unreliable legends of the imperial capital. It looked at Zhao Xiaoqian and suggested, "I think we need to prepare some things, some torches and other supplies, and a guide who is familiar with this place. 】

Zhao Xiaoqian was silent for a while, he felt that what the turtle said made sense.

So Zhao Xiaoqian, who came here in a rage, turned his head back and walked back with the turtle on his shoulder.

In the dark entrance of the abandoned cave, a pair of green eyes appeared, silently watching their departing backs.

The turtle turned its head sharply at notice, and the gaze of the two pairs of eyes met like that.

Zhao Xiaoqian was frightened by the turtle's sudden movements, and quickly looked back. But those eyes were gone, and all he could see was a dark hole. "What's wrong?" Zhao Xiaoqian wanted to blame the turtle for a moment, but after seeing its serious gaze, those words that were originally blamed turned into a low ask: "What did you find?"

I'm not sure what it is. The turtle looked at Zhao Xiaoqian like this, and then continued to add with his divine thoughts, [But it is alive, this is good news, right, there are living things living here, which at least shows that there are no skeletons, ghosts, or anything in it. 】

"Are you sure?" Zhao Xiaoqian raised his eyebrows and questioned: "Maybe they can coexist peacefully." If you find out that it's a lich, the extreme mages who transform themselves into immortal beings usually summon skeletons or something, and high-level lichs may be able to summon nightmare knights, bone dragons, or other powerful necromancers. ”

The turtle looked at Zhao Xiaoqian blankly, [I don't know about the existence of lichs, but I'm sure what I found is a living guy. Ghosts and ghosts are supported by negative energy, living beings are supported by positive energy, yin and yang either merge into one and degenerate or evolve into chaotic evil things, or oppose each other and disappear, there is no such thing as peaceful coexistence. This is the fundamental truth, and all worlds are connected. 】

"I said, can you speak human words?" Zhao Xiaoqian said with a frown, his simple brain cells could not understand the turtle's explanation. "What kind of thing is yin and yang fused together, degraded and evolved? You are either science fiction or fantasy or fantasy, I feel very uncomfortable when you mix together like this." ”

The turtle was silent, it felt that explaining these things to Zhao Xiaoqian was simply playing the piano to the cow. [You don't have an answer in your heart, so just listen to me.] At the moment we have an important piece of information, and the things in it are living, intelligent beings. Now we need to go back, we need to prepare some torches, and we also need a guide who is familiar with the terrain inside to prepare materials according to the information provided by the guide. 】

"Where should we find the guide who doesn't know who it is and is familiar with the black hole?" Zhao Xiaoqian asked sarcastically as he walked, "Or do you have relatives or acquaintances in the city or something that can tell us this?"

The turtle was keenly aware of Zhao Xiaoqian's emotional instability. I sighed slightly in my heart... Mortals are creatures that always have some bad roots that are difficult for them to understand, and when they find a problem, they always cynically ridicule, shirk, and curse at the first time..... If a problem arises, isn't it possible to solve it? Bai has a brain, and he doesn't think about what to do, but only thinks about what to say to stimulate others. If you don't have the ability to come up with a way to solve the problem, at least learn to listen to others....

The turtle was silent.

What it didn't notice was that it had a slight grudge against Zhao Xiaoqian in its heart. Complaining is a kind of negative emotion, "expressing dissatisfaction with the things that caused the result because things are not going as expected", to a certain extent, to understand, accept, and ignore the emotional venting and accusation.

It's nothing, it's the mind of every thinking being. But.... The turtle is not a living creature in nature, although it claims to be a hegemon and has the experience and memory of an ancient divine beast, but in essence, it is a system creation, and it does not have emotions other than the system setting. Blaming the behavior caused by this negative emotion is no longer within the system's setting......

[If you take a serious look at the information unlocked by the system, you should notice that your teacher is also a good friend of Renault named Gura.] He has the title of King of Adventures, and in his profile there is a place called the Acorn Tavern. 】

The turtle closed its eyes, it didn't want to make any eye contact with Zhao Xiaoqian now.

"So what?" asked Zhao Xiaoqian.

[If you want to know, why don't you see for yourself?] The turtle still looked like he was recuperating with his eyes closed, and replied indifferently.

The rough Zhao Xiaoqian sensed that the turtle was reluctant to talk more, he didn't know why, but he still decided to remain silent.

Zhao Xiaoqian didn't feel that he had a problematic tone when he spoke just now, or that he didn't care about these at all.

In silence, Zhao Xiaoqian followed the turtle's suggestion and opened the system to search for Gula's information.

Sure enough, the Acorn Tavern was found in the adventure section to which it belonged.

【Acorn Tavern】

【Introduction———— named after the pattern of this fruit that resembles an acorn fruit is depicted on the sign of the tavern. In fact, what the pattern of that fruit really represents is the seed of the fruit of life. The origin of this tavern is not simple, and its history can be traced back to the era of the Seven Clans, and it is said that it was founded by three warriors who saved the world. The names of the warriors are too old to verify, and even the name of the tavern itself has been forgotten by the world.

Time has obscured the vivid legends that were once known to the world until they are completely forgotten.

But the tavern created by the warriors survived with great tenacity. Like a dandelion seed, it takes root and thrives everywhere adventurers can reach. Because the Life Fruit on the sign resembles an acorn, adventurers call it the Acorn Tavern. Of course, it also has another relatively official name———— the Adventurers' Association. But adventurers don't call it that, these bloody fellows hate the word 'association', which is full of rules, and is full of affection for the word 'tavern', which means free and indulgent. 】

Here you can find all kinds of strange adventurers, as long as you can pay them satisfactorily, they will be happy to serve you. 】

"Looks like a good place. Zhao Xiaoqian looked at these materials and said to himself.

The turtle smiled, "That's right, we'll find the guide we need there. We could rest there for the evening and then go with the guide to prepare what we needed. 】

"Gollum~~"

At this moment, a dull sound like thunder came from the tortoise's belly.

Zhao Xiaoqian pursed his lips. "I think tomorrow I'll have a horrible weight of food on my back in addition to you. ”

The turtle's old face was flushed, and he abruptly diverted the topic.

[We have to go faster, maybe the guide is not so easy to find.] 】

"Should we go faster?" Zhao Xiaoqian raised his eyebrows and squinted at the turtle on his shoulder: "You can actually say such things cheekily, isn't I the only one walking with my feet?"

"People's war pets are all green dragons, white tigers, and vermilion birds, with high combat power, and obedient, can ride and run ......fast," Zhao Xiaoqian looked at the turtle with complicated eyes. "I'm not looking for some cool pets, it's just... It doesn't matter if you don't have a handsome mount, and in the end it turns into a turtle's mount. ”

"Oh, fuck it, labor is Baha!! it's Baha!! Baha!! Booth King Baha!!"The turtle exploded completely!!"Like Baha!! mythical beast Baha!!"
