CHAPTER XXXI
The slime race is the floor of the monster fighting power in this world.
This sticky mollusk,
It can transform into a variety of rough shapes, is immune to most physical attacks, and tends to have no real combat power beyond the ability to creep around the ground, walls, and ceilings.
According to the rumors of adventurers, this race also has the ability to split into two separate entities after receiving certain precision attacks.
As a result, slimes have become the object of many adventurers to practice the accuracy of their moves.
Grim knew that this was just a rumor, and that after being split in two by a physical attack, a relatively small part of the slime's body was indeed able to retain mobility for a long time.
However, over time, the movement of this part of the body will gradually slow down until it loses its activity and becomes a puddle of water.
And the larger one, after splitting into such a large part of the body, will also be in a concept similar to the "great damage of vitality" of human beings.
If you are attacked at this time...... The remainder of the remnants will also end up dying in the near future.
As omnivorous monsters with excellent vitality and environmental adaptability, slimes were dumped into the Sewers of Reberion in large quantities decades ago to dispose of clogged garbage and filth.
In this dark environment, the slime without any natural predators reproduced at a jaw-dropping rate, and he was probably born at that time.
The rapid proliferation of slimes in the sewers caused concern among some in the Reberion Council, and it was proposed to issue a commission to the Adventurers' Guild in Reberion to reduce the number of slimes in the sewers.
However, in a power organization like the Council of Representatives, where many forces have their own agendas, when one faction proposes any substantive measures, it is bound to lead to a long period of prevarication.
While these nobles and landlords were arguing with each other, the members of the Conrad family, who were then the lords of the fiefdom of South Richsyphus, and the most favored third son stumbled and fell into the sewers......
When the servants and servants in the vicinity took a long time to rescue him, they were horrified to find that half of the little nobleman's face had been corroded by the slime, exposing his muscles and tendons......
Under the wrath of Lord Nanrisifus, the Council Council convened an emergency meeting, and unanimously approved the proposal to issue a commission to the Reberion Adventurers' Guild as quickly as possible.
As a result, the slimes that had originally thrived in the sewers of Reberion and had reached a huge number were almost slaughtered by the adventurers who came to the sewers with swords and magic in just a few days.
At the time, he had not yet learned human language and the ability to shapeshift, but unlike his green counterparts, who had no intelligence and acted almost entirely on instinct, he was aware of the impending danger and tried to find a way to escape.
Just as he did everything he could to get away from those humans......
"Eh, gray slimes, is it a mutated rare variety?"
"Catch it and sell it to someone who has a collector's penchant, and maybe you can get a high price."
Unlucky enough to get home, he was confronted by three adventurers at the entrance to the sewers, and he was captured without accident when his combat strength was quite limited.
"**, it's the first time I've seen a slime that can spray acid."
"***, who would have thought that slimes would have this ability...... It almost broke my handsome face. ”
"Okay, it's just that I broke some clothes, and if I sell this slime, it's worth the money......"
"Wait, doesn't that mean that slimes can become two separate individuals after being accurately split in half?"
"What do you mean......"
"Let's split it and sell it in two!"
"Split it again and sell it for four!"
"Wouldn't it be ...... to split again?"
"I'll blanch this?!"
"Get rich, get rich!"
The adventurers thought they had found a way to make a fortune, that is, they thought they could split the Grimes into infinite portions, and sell them to collectors in the whole of South Rissyphus and beyond, who were obsessed with collecting special races.
At that time, there were no laws of humanoid racial equality, and even the laws of the kingdom would not protect a slime.
His vitality is more tenacious than that of his companions, and even after being captured by those adventurers for a few days, he has not died even after being divided into unknown shares.
I don't know if it's a side effect of the mutation, but he has a sense of pain that other slimes don't have.
And the pain he endured during that time, in other words, should be called a thousand cuts, in other words.
While enduring an almost never-ending torment, the parts of his body that had been separated were exchanged for mountains of gold coins after the adventurers contacted the buyers.
Wealthy collectors are more than happy to donate generously to the rare species of slimes.
However, the good times did not last long, and just as the money bags were getting bigger and bigger, and the adventurers were plotting to sell his body to the capital of the world's richest and most aristocratic kingdom, the angry collectors came to the door and accused the adventurers of selling inferior goods.
Because these collectors, a few days after buying his body that had been cut apart by the adventurers, found that the collection they had just purchased had turned into a puddle of water for no reason.
As a result, the adventurers who were involved in this big and small fraud storm took a lot of effort, and almost lost all their belongings and even their bottoms after becoming adventurers, so that they could barely get out.
When the adventurer's profile is logged in, some will conduct an ability test for the new adventurer, and determine the adventurer's occupation and class according to their level, ability, experience, and the will of the testee. Adventurers who log in will receive a "guild card" as proof of membership, and when they accept commissions in the future, they will be assigned suitable jobs based on the information of the guild card, and the card has the functions of transaction discounts, transportation passes, and ID cards. In order to prevent criminals or wanted criminals, the Adventurer's Guild will verify their identity through special items or a technical review system during the review period.
Tutoring adventurers to understand the guild mechanism, the adventurer's guild with a professional teacher system will also shoulder the function of teaching adventurers professional skills, career puzzles, and job transfer systems.
Open party recruitment requests, allowing adventurers who are willing to team up to find suitable teammates.
After the adventurer logs in to the guild, the adventurer's mission record and level will be updated according to the number of times the adventurer completes the guild tasks, the task level, the adventurer's ability and level changes.
