"Good morning, you two, welcome. How can I help you?"
The city of Tanzania in the early morning is still as calm as ever. Even the number of players coming in and out of the Adventurers Association seems to be much less than usual. However, the waves in Duan Qing's heart standing here cannot calm down with such a scene. Instead, because
He became even more nervous when a certain figure appeared in front of him: "Hello, hello... No, where is that uncle?"
"Are you talking about Uncle Mu? He went out temporarily for something."
She was still dressed as a hostess, and the smile on the face of the lady who should have been standing at the door of the association hall was still as beautiful as Duan Qing had seen before: "Because the Adventurers Association is currently short of manpower, so the front desk
I will be responsible for the work for the time being."
"Excuse me... do you two want to receive the mission or return the mission?"
It would be great if I could meet such association attendants every day.
It seemed as if a few tears were shed in his heart. Duan Qing, who was carrying a white long-handled staff, raised his head and made a wiping motion. Then, under the urging eyes of Xue Ling Huan Bing behind him, he bit the bullet and wiped a sheepskin
The scroll was placed beside the counter: "We are here to hand in a mission."
"...Oh?" His eyes lightly scanned the surface of the sheepskin scroll, and the etiquette lady's smile showed a bit of radiance: "Is it... the wanted mission of Yan Salon?"
"Yes, it is."
"It's amazing, you actually completed it."
Reaching out to lift the scroll into the air, the etiquette lady's eyes gradually hid behind her crescent-shaped eyebrows: "But..."
"If I remember correctly, this should be your adventure group trial mission, right?"
She nodded towards Duan Qing, then raised her hand and pointed to the second floor space above the association: "If you want to continue to go through the adventure group procedures..."
"You'd better go to the second floor to handle it."
She tilted her head, and the ceremonial hat on her head moved cutely a little with this movement. Duan Qing and Xue Ling Huanbing, who were watching this scene, also followed the arm she showed.
, and looked towards the familiar staircase near the entrance of the association hall. Hesitantly moving his steps, two players, a man and a woman, then slowly passed through the display board and rest area of the hall.
At the handrail under the stairs, I looked again in the direction of the etiquette lady in the distance, and finally climbed up the steps at my feet with some confusion: "Strange..."
"Do you think it's weird too?"
"Although we did receive the task from upstairs before, didn't she just say there was a shortage of manpower?"
"Probably they want us to go up first and wait until the uncle comes back to deal with it."
There was no time to complain about issues such as work efficiency or service attitude. Duan Qing and his two men climbed up to the second floor and met the two swordsmen guarding the door again. However, I wonder if they had already received the corresponding orders.
, the guarding swordsman who always liked to make things difficult for these two people did not stop their steps at this time. In the scene where the white light was shining vaguely, the two people walked slowly through the second floor corridor that was also sparsely populated, and then followed the previous steps.
Memory and impression, he found the small and old counter that he had been guided to once: "You..."
"When did you come up?"
They looked at the figure of the etiquette lady who had been smiling at them in the hall on the first floor and was already waiting there. Their eyes widened involuntarily, and the other party who still maintained a bright smile then took off her own.
Top hat, turned around and hung it on the hook on the wall behind him: "I think I have explained it before."
"It's because of the lack of manpower."
She tilted her head again, swung her long brown hair tied into a ponytail to the side, and then while looking for something on the old counter, she stretched out one of her hands: "Bring it here.
Bar."
"Uh...oh."
His eyes kept rolling back and forth, but Duan Qing finally stepped forward with the mission scroll in hand: "Um...do you need anything else?"
"Well, let me take a look..."
Like a salesperson who has arrived in a field that does not belong to her own field, the etiquette lady kept flipping things back and forth on the table with some unfamiliarity. Finally, just before the dust in the sky was about to choke Duan Qing, she said with a look on her face
Huihen and Joy held up a ledger: "Ah, that's it! Since the last time the group of adventurers failed, we haven't touched it for more than a year..."
"Hehehehe." An awkward smile appeared on Duan Qing's face: "Are you talking about the person who did this task last time?"
"No, they are the people who wanted to pass the adventure group trial last time." The etiquette lady put down her hands and began to flip through each page of the account book: "Those around Tanzania who meet the requirements for the adventure group trial are
There were really too few tasks, and in the end, only the task of 'Canyon Evil Dragon' was left. As a result, because the rock salon was too strong, no one could complete it..."
"Before you two, there has been no new adventure group in the Adventurers Association of Tanzania City for more than a year!" She raised her head and said with a smile: "Now a new adventure group is finally about to be born, and my report also states that
No need to write about that big duck egg anymore, woo woo woo woo..."
Why do I remember that you didn't say that when you introduced this mission to us at the beginning...
A big bead of sweat slowly flowed down his face. Duan Qing looked at Xue Ling Huan Bing behind him who also had a helpless expression. He didn't know what to say, but the next moment his idea was interrupted by the etiquette lady.
Interrupted by the shouting, her eager eyes appeared at the same time: "That's right!"
"You should have proof of completing the mission, right?" Her eyes fluttering between her long brown hair blinked back and forth: "For example, the head of Yanshalon or the dragon horns of Yanshalon..."
"Uh...its body disappeared."
Duan Qing, who seemed to have been waiting for this question for a long time, took down the long snow-white staff behind him: "The specific process may be difficult to explain. Many adventurers have witnessed that process, but
If you don't have time to confirm all this..."
"We got this." In the scene where the white fluorescence kept shining, he placed the long magic wand in front of the counter: "I wonder if this can be regarded as proof?"
"Well--"
With a troubled look on her face, Miss etiquette took the staff with some hesitation, and then after a period of careful observation, she gradually widened her eyes: "This, this is...a dragon bone?"
"What?" Duan Qing showed a surprised expression this time: "Is this thing made of dragon bones?"
"Such a white dragon bone...well, it is something that can only be collected from high-level dragons." Miss etiquette nodded in affirmation and then placed her eyes on Xue Ling Huan Bing's waist: "That long bone of yours
Is the same thing true for swords?”
"……Yes."
After a slight hesitation, the white-haired woman wrapped in a cloak took off the long sword hanging from her waist and placed it in front of her. Then, after a period of silence, she was startled by the etiquette lady in front of her.
The cry was startling: "This, this is a dragon's tooth! It's a top-quality dragon's tooth!"
"How did you get these two weapons?" She raised her head and looked at the embarrassed Duan Qing in front of her with more curious eyes: "Did you use the trophies from this hunt to make them?
?”
"Well, that's right." Duan Qing, who was scratching his head, replied with a dry smile: "Although I don't know how to do it..."
"In this case, you are qualified!"
There was a joyful expression on her face that only a girl could have. Miss etiquette laughed and jumped twice on the spot: "Congratulations on completing the trial task of 'Canyon Evil Dragon' and wiping out the evil dragon entrenched in the northeastern part of Tanzania City.
A threat that lasts for years.”
"In the name of Hannah Antel, the president of the Tanzania City Adventurer Association, I agree that you have passed the adventure group trial." She clasped her hands together, and then tilted her lovely head again: "Then you just need to continue
Complete this form..."
"Your adventure group is now established!"
"Ri, president of the Adventurers Association?" Duan Qing suddenly opened his mouth: "Are you the president of the Adventurers Association? What's going on?"
"He is the president of the Tanzania City Adventurer Association." Hannah, the etiquette lady, corrected Duan Qing's words with a sweet smile: "At the same time, he also works part-time in the adventure association's accounting, level assessment, task classification, and welcoming guests.
"
"You, the president, must be too busy." Xue Ling Huan Bing, whose eyes were also full of surprise, also sighed: "Are there not a few other living people in the association?"
"The targets set by the above have not been completed, and there has been no new progress in other aspects, so the Adventurers Association headquarters has only given us these few people, and we have nothing to say." Hannah pursed her lips in dissatisfaction, and then said
Eager eyes were on Duan Qing again: "But this time our adventure group has finally achieved zero breakthroughs. The headquarters no longer has any reason to withhold our salary and benefits! Hurry, hurry, fill out this form.
...What do you plan to call your adventure group?"
"Qing Ling." Quickly breaking away from the information implicit in the other party's words, Xue Ling Huan Bing answered before the hesitant Duan Qing: "It's better to be the same Qing Ling."
"Qingling Adventure Group... Well, it's a very nice name." Hannah, who nodded her head and buried her head, began to write quickly on a crumpled old page: "In terms of members,
They are the same people you signed before, right?"
"That's right."
"What is the purpose of the adventure group? Do we need to formulate team rules?"
"Well...you won't need it for the time being."
"If you want to register the plans and regulations in the Adventurers Association, it's not too late to do these things in the future." Hannah, who was extremely fast and efficient, kept scratching on the page with the pen in her hand.
Dong Dong said: "Adventurer level and signature can also be supplemented later... By the way."
"Your adventurer badge."
She lifted up the page in her hand, and then handed the crumpled book and the quill to Duan Qing and the other two people.
"Just draw whatever you want."
*********************************
"Fortunately, this game also has a beautification function."
Some time later, in the Adventurer Association hall, figures belonging to Duan Qing and Xue Ling Huanbing sitting together appeared in the rest area on the first floor. However, at this time, on their respective chests,
There is already an emblem that looks like a spiritual bird surrounded by cyan aura: "Otherwise... we will not be able to see anyone in the future."
"You insisted on grabbing it and painted it." Xue Ling Huan Bing, who also looked a little exhausted at the side, replied angrily: "Although a long time has passed, I still learned more or less when I was young.
Some painting skills..."
"Come on, it's just like the one you drew." Duan Qing waved his hand in the air in front of him: "People who don't know would think you're turning into two quails that are about to be cooked... Oops!"
"Don't talk nonsense." He withdrew his hand that was squeezing the other party's waist, and a blush rose on Xue Ling Huan Bing's face: "If you hadn't stopped me, that painting might have been beautified by the system.
It looks like two spiritual birds intertwined with each other."
"Come on, I don't believe it."
Duan Qing sneered and waved his hands in front of him, and sat up straight before his waist was about to suffer again: "But no matter what, the adventure group has come a long way."
"It's a guild." Wrinkling his nose, Xue Ling Huan Bing declared confidently: "Our Qing Ling Guild has taken the first step to dominate the world, and maybe we can become the largest player in the alliance in the future.
Where’s the guild?”
"No, no, no, no, I don't plan to do this." Duan Qing sighed longly: "And we haven't even solved the problem of food and clothing yet, so why don't we come up with such long-term ideals and goals first?"
"That's right." Xue Ling Huan Bing covered her hungry belly: "Forget it, now that we have the recognition of the Tanzanite Adventurers Association, we can enter and exit at will on the second floor, shouldn't we go there first?
Take a look at the mission display board to see if there is anything——"
"Sorry to bother you two."
In a low and serious voice, a fully armed swordsman guard suddenly appeared in front of the two people: "Excuse me, you are Linyuan Duanshui and Xueling Huanbing of the Qingling Adventure Group, right?"
"Yes." Recognizing that the other party was one of the guards guarding the door on the second floor, Duan Qing hurriedly stood up and asked, "What do you want from us?"
"The president sent us here."
Nodding slightly, the guarding swordsman then dropped a heavy package from his back in front of Duan Qing. The sweet sound of gold coins colliding with each other echoed in the ears of the two of them like the sound of nature descending:
"Before, I was only focused on handling the adventure group procedures for you, and I forgot about your mission settlement rewards."
"This is a bounty of 80,000 gold coins." He pointed to the package, not caring about the surprised looks from other players around him: "If you are worried..."
"You two can take a look." (To be continued)
