Chapter 206: Herclairy's Mission
"Indeed, if I'm all right, I'll go with you. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ info" Besco smiled wryly and spread his hands.
The bristles of wild boars are excellent brush materials, pig skins can also be used for things like shield skins, book covers, non-slip hilts and some clothing, large tusks are ideal for ornaments and carvings, and pork can also be used for food, making them a good raw material for meat products.
"Do you have a mission, that's a shame. The Winged Maiden spread her hands with some regret, "I just saw a quest that might be of interest to you." β
"Oh, can you tell me about it?" Besco was intrigued by Shirley's words.
"There's a bulletin board on the head of town. Shirley replied.
There are basically no guilds stationed at the town level, usually the tavern gathers those functions, or the official puts a notice board in a fixed position, and any information is posted on it.
The one-meter-high, three-meter-long board is plastered with a mess of information, reminding everyone to pay attention to the agricultural time, which merchants have entered and left, Miller's board car has broken down, etc., but the biggest piece of information on the page is about the magic apple, based on the experience of previous years, the goblins are estimated to be traded in Oaktown in a week or two.
"The one in the upper right corner, the one written on gilded paper. Shirley kindly reminded Besco when she was struggling to find information.
"It's a luxury, that kind of paper costs a silver coin. Besco muttered, and quickly followed Shirley's instructions to find the quest message.
The publisher is Kylowan Herclairy.
The main content of the mission is rescue, and a month ago, four local adventurers went missing while exploring the underground castle, including a pair of human siblings, Taragon Heclelli and Saraven Heclairy. Ms. KellΓΆven hopes that her missing children can be found, or. At least get their Golden Seal Ring back. For each ring she returns, she rewards the executor with 500 gold coins, which is doubled if she can bring the siblings back to town intact.
"The bid for this task is already over the C level. Besco exclaimed.
Besco himself was just a bronze wanderer, and 500 gold coins was not a small amount for him, even if three people shared a lot.
Besco was moved. It would take at least a week for the goblins to come to town, and to do something that the thrifty Besco couldn't tolerate, maybe he should do this task first?
"The Herckley family is a well-known business family in Oak Town, and they are the richest in the town. Shirley raised an eyebrow, "How's it going, are you excited?"
"Very attractive. Besco said cautiously, "But this quest requires at least four people or C-class mercenaries to prove it, Todak has a D-class certificate, and the two of us are only E-class." β
The dwarf Todak tugged at his beard. scolded dissatisfiedly: "The bullshit mercenary hierarchy, if you fight for strength, there are few C-level who can fight me." β
Shirley and Besco glanced at each other, and covered their mouths and snickered in unison, in terms of strength, it is true that many C-class mercenaries are not opponents of Todak, because dwarves are naturally superior to most races, including humans, in terms of strength, but if they fight quickly. Besco is overshadowed by Shirley and Besco, who are one level below him, and Ranger and Wanderer are both classes that require a lot of agility.
"If you want to participate. It's easy. After laughing for a while, Shirley paused, "Because of the annual magic apple, there are a lot of adventurers and mercenaries gathered here, we can go to the tavern and wait, it shouldn't be long before there are people interested in this quest, and we can invite." β
"Just be careful to invite people who are not too strong above us. Otherwise, the other party can complete the task alone. Besco smiled, "Okay, I agree." β
Back at the Boar Tavern, Besco also got a glimpse of what was going on in the so-called underground castle.
The underground castle refers to a ruin more than forty kilometers away along the old road in the south of the town, and this rescue mission is actually not unrelated to Besco's Red Apple mission.
Twelve years. Every summer, the goblin tribe that occupies the ruins sells a magic apple to the villagers, and the ruins, also known as underground castles, sell them a magic apple. This bright red apple can cure all diseases. The person who buys the Magic Apple usually takes out the seeds in the hope of cultivating the Magic Apple Tree. The seeds germinate and grow twisted saplings, but mysteriously disappear when they reach about two feet, and the villagers believe that the goblins sent thieves to steal the saplings in order to monopolize the benefits of the magic apple.
The four local adventurers from a month ago disappeared after heading to the underground castle.
The sun's rays shone through the window from long to short and from short to long, and the orange-red rays shone on the three adventurers who were looking for their companions.
It is true that there are more mercenaries and adventurers than usual, but most of them are not interested in the rescue mission of the underground castle, or do not notice, because the mission information written on the gilded paper is almost half covered by the later note, which is what the winged girl found out with such curiosity and acumen - in Besco's words, Shirley has a natural insight into valuable things.
"Why isn't anyone interested in that mission?" Shirley said indignantly.
"After all, most of them are passers-by, just to see the magical red apples. Besco took a sip of the ale that he had been drinking for hours.
And this task seems simple, but in fact it is still full of risks, the main reason is that there are too many unknowns, and many people prefer stable and safe jobs.
If it weren't for Shirley and Todak, two trusted companions who had a lot of work experience, he wouldn't have done it even if he saw it.
Todak snores in a circle chair, and dwarves sleep or brag when they are bored.
"Squeak. β
The tavern door was pushed open, and in came a black-haired, black-eyed teenager, metal plates embedded in a black trench coat, black belted leather boots and trousers, and a black one-handed sword behind him.
"It's all black. Shirley complained.
"Newbie. Besco looked at it and was not interested.
Without enough armor, no spare weapons, no ranged weapons, no adventures and all sorts of little things to use when traveling, this man looks like a boy who runs out on adventures with just his blood.
Kirito looked around and walked over to Canon's counter and sat down.
"What do you want, guest?" said Canon warmly.
Kirito placed five silver coins on the table: "One stewed pork, one white bread, and another piece of cottage cheese." β
"Okay!" Hearing Kirito order so many things, Canon suddenly smiled.
"Wow, this guy is so delicious. Shirley exclaimed.
"It's a luxury. Besco swallowed as well.
Adventurers are not as unrestrained as many people imagine, the sword and sword represent danger, sleeping in the open is a symbol of hard work, every copper coin they harvest is exchanged for sweat and blood, adventurers will generally choose to use the money to change their equipment or to learn new skills.
Eating and drinking like that black-haired swordsman boy can be said to be the dream of many low-level adventurers.
While waiting for something to be delivered, Kirito pressed his right hand to his forehead.
...... It's about twenty days, I see.
Asuna is here too?!Know, I know.
Disconnecting the communication, Kirito's eyes flashed with excitement. (To be continued.) )
