Chapter 30: The Artifact

In the eyes of Wang Feng, except for the walls of the outer city and the castle of the inner city, which are still somewhat magnificent and majestic, the other places are simply a mess, and there is no solemnity as the capital of the empire at all.

Compared with the city in Wang Feng's impression, even the small county where he lives is much more orderly than here. It's just... It's a fucking mess like a market.

Wang Feng's intuition was too right, Celestial City was the largest trade market in the entire empire. It is also a market where several surrounding countries can obtain the greatest profits through formal channels. In the entire Celestial City, with the exception of the royal family, nobles, the military, and the peasants outside the city, almost all the people who stayed in the Celestial City were merchants or merchants' customers.

Of course, among these people, there is no shortage of major trade unions. The place where merchants gather is also a place to make a fortune, and there is a need for various needs such as magic items or mercenaries. It is home to the Empire's largest union of magicians and adventurers, as well as the Empire's best magicians and mercenaries.

The Adventurer's Guild here will not accept missions that pay less than 5,000 gold coins, and there are no adventurers below level 20 who have received mission dispatches from here. The services provided here are absolutely guaranteed to be safe and qualitative, provided that, of course, this task and the state apparatus are not fundamentally opposed. Although there may be some small "frictions", the people here will be responsible for disposing of these small frictions, of course, none of them are free.

There are also four large towns on the periphery of the Amagi, distributed in four directions, south, east, west, and north, each of which is not small in size, and all of them are stationed with armies to help Amagi. This is the real area where everyone but the merchants live.

After learning this, Wang Feng expressed a hint of praise to Linda and Chuck. Under such conditions, with the background of the two of them, it is better to do anything casually than to be a mercenary outside, and they can make more money. This hint of praise didn't last long, because Wang Feng immediately thought of Aisha's surname that was not afraid of heaven and earth, go out on an adventure, hum, it's fun, Chuck is so pitiful.

Putting away his thoughts about Aisha and Chuck, Wang Feng looked at the people around him again. The training of the dragoons is really detailed enough, in addition to the cultivation of martial arts, even the customs and customs of various places have been instilled, and some things are heard from Harlem's mouth.

When dozens of people first came out of the Warcraft Forest, the habits developed by strict training coupled with the heroic spirit of crazy killing and lost gains, as well as the murderous aura deliberately released by some people like Ruohan, in the whole process of leaving the forest, there was not even a single reptile passing by in a radius of dozens of zhang around. These guys seem to enjoy it.

Wang Feng didn't say anything at the time, but after coming out of the beast country, Wang Feng taught everyone another lesson. Including Haring, it was almost a hard fight, and Wang Feng knocked down all the members of the dozens of wolf army, even Ruohan after the madness. Finally, let these people know what it means to be humble and retreat.

However, after being taught a lesson by Wang Feng, everyone was not depressed, but more confident. Because of the captain like Wang Feng, there is always the direction of everyone's struggle, and he can realize the value of his life.

The competition along the way is indispensable, although everyone has received strict training in the Dragon Refining Cave, but the real actual combat has not been experienced. In this regard, these new members of the wolf army are not even as good as Linda.

I couldn't show the real battlefield, so I had to do it by playing with each other. Linda was not challenged by anyone because she was a female surname and an archer, but Ruohan was different, and almost every time she camped, she had to fight several battles. Ruohan is also a natural militant, except for Wang Feng, who is not convinced by anyone, these people are facing his spleen and stomach, and this kind of competition is also a rare opportunity for him to exercise.

What's more, Wang Feng will also give pointers from time to time on the side, which has benefited both sides of the competition, and even onlookers can learn a lot of things, so there are more and more such exchanges.

Wang Feng also looked at it with interest, mentioning it at any time, as if he had returned to the time when he was gathering and discussing with those brothers in the wolf army camp, and from time to time he would show a little melancholy. Only Linda was silently beside him, paying attention to Wang Feng and quietly accompanying him.

Occasionally, Wang Feng would also show some interest in bows and arrows. At this time, Linda was Wang Feng's teacher. The forest elves have an amazing talent in bows and arrows that ordinary people can't match, bows and arrows are like siblings in their hands, and the accuracy of the arrows and the speed of the arrows make everyone amazed.

Wang Feng also showed a high interest in weapons and attack martial arts, as well as superhuman comprehension ability, and along the way, although he couldn't be as proficient as Linda, he also showed good strength.

Passing through many towns and large cities on the way, Harlem and them completed the qualification procedures for adventurers, and officially became a member of the wolf army in the officially recognized procedures. However, Haring and the others did not have any level, only the initial level, and as a result, the level of the wolf army also returned to the first level.

There were no tasks in the town, just a regular rest. Harlem and the others had their own weapons and armor, but they didn't have mounts. However, in the current situation, all horses are controlled by the military, and even the rich caravans that transport goods in the local area can only be achieved by slow and heavy beasts, so it is difficult to mount now.

Finally, I arrived at the town south of the outer part of Amagi, and found a place to rest and settle down, and then slowly inquired about Amagi and Linda Chuck's home. However, when everyone saw the logo of their first-level mercenary group, everyone smiled with contempt and did not continue to communicate with them further. After all, even on the outskirts of Celestial City, many high-level adventurers were waiting for any new missions or opportunities, not to mention junior personnel like them.

A kind mercenary pointed them to the route to the Adventurers' Guild, but only told them in a tone of persuasion that they should look for opportunities in other small places. Wang Feng declined his kindness. Haring paid attention to it, and the mercenary turned out to be level twenty-six.

Because of the expensive entrance fee, Wang Feng left the rest of the people in the southern city, and only brought Linda Ruohan and Haring into the heavenly city. Then I saw the big market in Amagi.

In fact, Wang Feng still mistook Tiancheng, he only saw some low-level markets, and in the center of Tiancheng, there was also an area where wealthy merchants and nobles lived, and that was where the real super-rich and high-end markets circulated.

The Adventurers' Guild is on the edge of this area, a huge house. There is also a tavern or something, and many mercenaries are sitting in it and drinking slowly, waiting for the mission.

Seeing Wang Feng and the others coming in, some people looked up, and when they saw their mercenary signs, a few people even shook their heads before turning their eyes to other places. Several staff members squinted at each other, what should they do.

It seems that this is really not a place for ordinary adventurers. Wang Feng didn't care about these eyes, after all, his level was not high, and such an attitude was natural.

This is just a place for the mercenaries to rest, and the other hall is the place to receive the task and complete the task, Wang Feng found a staff member to ask, but the staff's unkindness almost made Ruohan beat him, and Wang Feng glared at him fiercely, and Ruohan gave up. This time when he entered the city, Wang Feng didn't want to cause trouble, so Ruohan didn't go berserk, otherwise, I really don't know if he could hold back.

When I came to the hall, I found that there were really a lot of people inside, not only the people who received the task were queuing, but even those who had completed the task were also queuing.

Some mercenaries saw that there was actually a first-level mercenary group queuing up, and it was on the side of completing the task, so they asked the people around them, when did the first-level mercenary group be sent here to take the task?

Everyone was talking about it, and even some staff members stopped what they were doing and participated in the discussion. Although the voice was not loud, it still clearly reached the ears of Wang Feng and several people.

Linda is a girl after all, being pointed at so blatantly, some of her faces can't hold back, Wang Feng looked at it, and snorted lightly, although the sound was not loud, but everyone in the hall clearly heard this low hum. After all, they were all high-level mercenaries, and they immediately understood that they were a little too fussed, most of them shook their heads, and turned their eyes away, and a few people with ulterior motives began to turn their eyes to the bright elves.

This kind of gaze made Linda even more uncomfortable, and without waiting for Wang Feng's orders, Ruohan had already stared at him with angry eyes and looked at these people, if it wasn't for the boss not to let him do it, Ruohan would have rushed up a long time ago.

However, the efficiency here is still good, the people who take the task are very fast, and the people who complete the task and receive the bounty are also very fast, but after everyone finished their own things, they did not leave the hall, and gathered on the edge of the hall to wait. Curiously waiting to see what kind of task Wang Feng would finish.

Although there were a lot of people in line, they still walked quickly, and it was finally Wang Feng's turn.

The staff of the union are not very old, but they are also well-informed, and they know that such a situation must be unusual, so they asked in a very polite tone: "How many people, is there anything I can serve?"

Wang Feng nodded and said, "We want to receive the bounty." ”

"May I ask what kind of mission it is, when was it distributed, and did any of the tasks come back with results?" the staff member very skillfully brought out the usual rhetoric.

Wang Feng glanced at Linda, and Linda understood, took out the Wind Bow from under her bow and put it on the table.

The small bow, the exquisite pattern, there is not the slightest jewel when placed there, from the appearance, it is just a bow a little smaller than the ordinary longbow, what is the result of this task, even the staff are confused.

The surrounding mercenaries were even more talkative, although these people were also well-informed, but the bow that these junior little mercenaries took out in front of them really didn't know what a good thing it was.

The staff looked at Wang Feng a little playfully and asked, "Sir, we don't seem to have sent such a task, right?" After all, they are well-trained, even if they look down on these junior mercenaries from their hearts, they still say it in a polite tone, although the eyes reveal contempt.

Wang Feng didn't answer, Ruohan slapped the table and shouted, "Blind thing, tell your heads to come out, take a good look at what this is?"

Everyone looked at Wang Feng and finally determined that Wang Feng and they were not joking, and the staff suppressed the idea of almost asking someone to drive them out. Went inside and went to find someone.

The experienced mercenaries had already sensed that something big was going to happen, and they were all carefully watching them. Although the level is not high, except for Ruohan's huge size, only Linda is an archer, and I can't see anything strange about these four people. But let's wait until the host on duty today of the Adventurers' Guild comes out.

After a while, an old man in a long robe walked out with the young staff, apparently the staff had already explained the general situation to him, so there was no nonsense, and he walked directly over there to examine the bow.

After a few glances, the old man's expression had changed, he rubbed his eyes carefully, stared at it intently, and almost shouted. But he stopped the voice in his throat in time, raised his head and asked Wang Feng next to him: "This is what you found?"

Wang Feng nodded, and the old man did not hesitate and said, "Please come in and speak." "Turn around and lead the way. Wang Feng motioned for Linda to put away her bow and followed the old man into the back. People were even more puzzled, and the clever ones had already gone outside to ask more knowledgeable people.

Wang Feng and the four of them followed the old man inside, and the old man had already instructed the staff just now to find a few other people, and he couldn't wait to get the bow from Linda's hand, looked at it and looked at it, and then ran to a pile of documents to find it.

After searching for a long time, I finally found a copy from a thick pile of materials, opened it, spread it out on the table, and compared the graphics and features on it.

Finally, he raised his head and said to Wang Feng: "Judging from the appearance, it should be, it won't be wrong." However, I can't make a final decision alone, so I'll have to wait for a few other people to evaluate it together. Wang Feng nodded to show that he understood, and the old man instructed the staff outside to prepare something to drink, and he was still watching the Wind Bow.

After a long time, finally a few people came one after another, everyone began to be extremely impatient to be disturbed, and when they saw the bow, it was like a hungry wolf seeing meat, and the old man at the beginning had already found all the information, and everyone was overturned. Two of them looked strong and tried to pull away, Wang Feng and the others looked at it and didn't speak, waiting for them to be electrified. Sure enough, both of them jumped up with electricity.

Ruohan had suffered a loss, and when he looked at them, he laughed, and Linda couldn't help laughing. The two of them are so faceless.

Finally, after a burst of chickens and dogs, everyone reached a unanimous consensus that the bow in front of them was the legendary artifact "Wind". The bow had been missing for more than a hundred and fifty years, and its last owner, who was unable to use the bow, had placed it in the room for furnishings, and was accidentally seen by a famous thief of the time, who found the artifact and stole it from the owner's house.

The owner of the bow immediately offered a reward of 100,000 gold coins to find the artifact, but the thief did not dare to make a noise because he was carrying the artifact, and disappeared completely with the bow. Many years have passed, and not only has this bounty not been withdrawn, but the bounty amount has been raised higher and higher, and now it is a sky-high price of 500,000 gold coins.

And because the reward time is too long, according to the regulations of the adventurer's union, every ten years, the level of this task will be adjusted up by one level, and correspondingly, in addition to the reward, the person who completes the task can also increase the corresponding adventure level by one level. More than one hundred and fifty years have passed now, which is equivalent to raising fifteen levels at a time, but it is limited to two people.

It seems that the charm of the artifact is great, and after so many years, it is still so eye-catching. Several people have already been identified, but they still look around and look at it reluctantly, forgetting Wang Feng and the others aside.

Wang Feng waited for a long time and finally spoke. "Excuse me, can you complete the formalities for me to complete the mission?"

The old man at the beginning turned around embarrassedly and said, "Yes, yes, please come with me." He led Wang Feng and the four of them to the hall and designated the young staff just now to complete the formalities for Wang Feng.

When the young man knew the content of the task, he gasped and thought to himself, fortunately he didn't drive them out, otherwise it would be his turn to finish such a task. Hurry up to transfer, record, deduct fees, etc. and tell the staff outside to ring the magic honor bell.

After the completion of every task that exceeds 100 years, the Adventurers' Guild will ring the honor bell uniformly distributed by the Guild. Each branch of the Adventurer's Guild has a bell, and all the bells are controlled by special magic, and when one bell rings, all the bells ring. In other words, the bells of all the adventurers' unions on the continent have now been ringed.

Through the Magic Honor Bell, the content of the mission and Wan Chengren have also been revealed, and now, all the adventurer guild members know that the long-lost artifact "Wind" bow has been found by a mercenary group called the "Wolf Army".

Aisha and Chuck's magic crystal cards flashed at the same time, because this adventure level was not particularly important to Wang Feng and the others, so Wang Feng gave the two upgraded places to Aisha and Chuck. Although such a task has been completed, the wolf army is still a first-level adventure team, and the captain Wang Feng is still a first-level adventurer.

It is said that the god of arrows is invincible with these two weapons, and anyone who can use the artifact can obtain god-like power and skills from the artifact, which is why all people yearn to have an artifact.

However, the artifact is not something that anyone can use, the artifact has a spirit, and it will choose the owner, and those who can't get the approval of the artifact can't even pull the bowstring at all, just like Ruohanchuk and others, even if they use reckless power, they will be attacked by the defensive magic attached to the artifact, and even the dragoon, who is immune to most magic, is estimated to not be spared. There are very few freaks like Wang Feng.

None of the previous owners of the artifact have been able to obtain the approval of the artifact, but since the rightful owner, all the owners have tried to study whether there are other ways to obtain the power of the artifact, and none of them have handed over or returned the artifact to the owner.

When he came to Wang Feng, what he really believed in was his own strength, so he didn't care about an artifact that no one could use, and it was better to exchange it for something practical.

Wang Feng and the others have already received the bounties and other rewards they deserve, because of the special task, the great contribution, and have received an honor issued by the Adventurer's Union, the Wolf Army can accept any level of tasks in any adventurer's union in the future, regardless of the team's level. This is the only first-class mercenary team on the continent to receive this honor. There is another team that is the Tianlong Mercenary Group, which can also take on any task, but they can take it because they are the highest-level mercenary group on the mainland, and if they can't take it, no one can take it.

Wang Feng and the others had already left the Adventurers' Union and returned to Nancheng. But the Adventurers' Guild is not so calm.

The presiding officer on duty today has sent out all the security forces that the union can control to guard this place. After all, greed for artifacts can cause many people to covet them. Although this is the largest guild in the Empire, there is no guarantee that someone will do some of the adventures that will be carried out in the Adventurers' Guild under the temptation of the artifact.

Perhaps, until the artifact is returned to its true owner, it will be so heavily guarded. The people who had previously lingered in the bar and hall were kicked out, and the normal acceptance and completion of the mission only allowed one mercenary group to enter one person, and they had to have a magic crystal card with the mercenary group's emblem. All the armed forces owned by the union have been deployed and guarded inside the union. Because of the important surname and value of the artifact, the union even assigned two tasks, mobilized 10,000 gold coins, and dispatched two mercenary groups with excellent strength that had a good cooperative relationship to guard the periphery of the union.

The Guild has asked the Wizard to notify the Guild President and the original owner of the artifact as quickly as possible, so that they can hurry over here to receive the artifact. The credibility of the union is so good that no one knows who the original owner is, except for a few people in the core.

News of the artifact's discovery has spread throughout the city through some mercenaries who are watching the excitement. Because of the appearance of the artifact, many powerful businessmen have put down their business and turned to care about the artifact. At present, what they want to know most is the owner of the original artifact bounty and how to deal with this artifact.

Because of the age, no one can use it, and everyone didn't know who the owner of the artifact was, which was equivalent to not knowing the whereabouts of the artifact, so there was no illusion about the artifact. But this time the artifact was recovered, and the mysterious owner had to show up, if he couldn't use the artifact, the artifact would only bring ruin to his family. The best way to do this is to dispose of it here.

The artifact has a spirit, and it will naturally choose the owner. If you are destined to be the one who is destined, you can become a god-like existence, which is the common idea of most people.

It would be great if it could be put up for public auction. Some merchants have already started raising cash and are ready to bid. The more shrewd ones have directly probed into the internal news of the union through their connections. Poor warriors and upright people are plotting how to profit from those who have intentions for the artifact, while deviant people are plotting how to get the artifact from the union or the next master. The entire Celestial City has entered a wonderful state because of the appearance of the artifact.

Soon, the residents of the outer city also got the news. Not long after Wang Feng and the others returned to their residences, the entire Heavenly City, including the four outer cities in the southeast, south, and northwest, were all boiling about the artifact, and even the pretentious residents were full of pride because of the appearance of the artifact in the Heavenly City.

When the news reached the palace, the royal family also caused a sensation, and even directly stationed two brigades of forbidden armies to strengthen the security and security of the Heavenly City, and the personnel entering and leaving the outer city of the Heavenly City had to be strictly interrogated.

Because of the annual Magician and Samurai Promotion Conference to be held in the near future, the Magician Guild and the Samurai Guild will have to rush to a lot of high-ranking personnel, coupled with the influence of the artifact of the Adventurer Guild, this month's Amagi can't be lively.

Looking at the enthusiasm of the people around him, Wang Feng gave another precept to the people of the wolf army, at all times, to stay calm and not be moved by external objects, including on the battlefield. With a cool head, you will know how to advance and retreat, distinguish between interests and traps, and achieve your goals to the greatest extent and ensure your safety to the greatest extent.

said that he was going to see Aisha and Chuck, and Wang Feng also had some questions to ask Aisha's grandfather, it seems that Amagi has to go in again, I don't know what lively scenes will be there when I go in this time.
