Chapter 3 Habits of the Amnesiac

"Your name is Vertok...what does this name remind you of?"

The room is small and the temperature is suitable. The owner of the Adventurer's House wears an old kapok shirt. The half-rolled cuffs reveal his thick muscular forearms. He holds an unlit pipe in his mouth and squints his eyes.

His sly eyes wandered over Vertok's handsome face, trying to get some clues through the changes in his expression.

"My name is Vertok?"

Weir frowned his slender and straight eyebrows, his face full of confusion and confusion. He pondered for a long time, then nodded and murmured: "So my name is Vertok... But I can't remember it at all."

He was wearing old clothes that belonged to Piru, the store clerk, and had been altered by a maid who knew tailoring. They seemed to fit, but they only just fit.

After all, the shop clerk's old clothes were not decent, and they were heavily patched, giving off a sense of shabbyness. However, wearing them on Wiltok could not hide his brilliance, especially those amber eyes, which were pure and deep.

, there is a certain charm faintly revealed in the eyes, which is particularly charming and full of strange charm.

Bottom picked up the fire knife and flint on the table, skillfully rubbed out sparks, lit his beloved old pipe, and then slowly exhaled a stream of light blue smoke from his mouth, and the choking smell of tobacco spread in the room.

People who like tobacco like it very much, but most people hate tobacco. Wiltok, who was sitting across the table, was not irritated by the smoke and coughed. He even shrugged his nose, as if he was trying to distinguish the smell of tobacco.

Bottom suddenly became interested, raised the pipe in his hand, and asked cheerfully: "Cadelin tobacco, I made it homemade, it tastes great, do you want to try it?"

Wiltok waved away the smoke in front of him with his hands, shook his head and said, "I don't like this smell."

"I thought you liked it."

Bartome took back his pipe with a look of resentment, took two more puffs, and continued: "Where did we just talk? Oh, your name is Wiltok... Well, actually, I have no idea about your life experience.

I don’t know much about your origins. I think Sarah has already told you some things, so I’ll say it again... This spring, two female adventurers brought you into a coma to the Adventurer’s Home. They are Bai

Lina, the female doctor of the Horn Adventure Group, and Yin, the female warrior of the Hemer tribe, Lina claims to be your sister..."

The hotel owner narrated the whole process of his meeting with the doctor Lina in great detail, hoping to awaken some of Wiltok's memories, but he did not mention his subjective judgment of Lina and concealed it.

The issue of letters of recommendation from famous Tuo families.

At the end, he leaned back in his chair, holding his cigarette holder in his mouth, and said vaguely: "That's all I know. I hope it can be helpful to you."

Wiltok's slender eyebrows kept frowning, and he lowered his head and said: "Lina, my sister? Yin? White Horn Adventure Group? Shadow Beast... I have no impression of these at all."

Bottom was silent for a moment and said, "Child, do you remember those things?"

Vertok raised his head and asked: "Bartom, I can see a golden light group. It is spinning rapidly. I want it to stop. Then I recovered some memories, which seem to be mental attributes, physical attributes, and perception."

Attributes and life attributes. Do you know what this is?"

Golden light group?

property?

His head was injured, and he even had hallucinations. It seemed that he was very ill... Facing Vertok's expectant eyes, Bottom cursed secretly, but still asked in a guiding light: "In your memory, these spirits

,Physique,Perception,What is life?”

Vertok nodded vigorously and said: "Physical attributes refer to the strength of the body, including the toughness of skin, muscles, bones, and internal organs, which mainly reflect a person's strength; mental attributes refer to the strength of control over oneself and external information.

It reflects a person's intelligence; perception is the sensitivity to external information, reflecting a person's acuity; life refers to life span, potential, and physical fitness, reflecting a person's constitution. These four attributes are not isolated, they complement each other and are indispensable."

Bottom nodded and said: "I haven't heard of it, but when you mentioned strength, intelligence, agility, and physique, I understood it... Can you recall this... how do you say it, theory! There must be one.

Someone taught you this theory and it impressed you deeply. This is a clue. I guess you have received a good education, maybe you are a student of a certain college..."

"Who are the students of the academy?" Wiltok straightened his back and asked with shining eyes.

"College? Uh, college...damn college, we'll talk about it later." Bottom stopped the topic in time, otherwise Wiltok would keep asking endless questions. He turned to say: "Viltok, you are now

If you can speak, you will definitely be able to regain your memory in the future. I must explain some of the rules of the Adventurer's House to you clearly first... As the person in charge of the Adventure Guild in Braun Town, I want to help some adventurers in distress.

Just like a young man who broke his brain and lost his memory...I think I have done what I should do, but none of it is free."

"Of course, you don't have to worry about money now." The sturdy hotel owner waved his left hand that was not holding the pipe in front of Wiltok. This action made him look very bold, but what he said next was

Another flavor.

"According to the regulations of the Adventure Guild, the White Horn Adventure Group you belong to will bear all the expenses for your recovery in the hotel. Your sister Lina also agreed with me that they will come to pick you up before next spring... But, the Adventure Group

When they take risks outside, anything can happen. Maybe they will make a fortune; maybe they will encounter misfortune and never come to Braun Town again."

Bottom sighed, shook his head and said: "To be honest, I have seen too many wounded soldiers who were abandoned by the adventure group in the hotel. Under normal circumstances, the adventure group will leave a sum of money for the comrades who need to recuperate. However, except for one set

A leather robe commonly used by adventurers, your sister Lina didn’t leave you anything of value.”

"If no one from the White Horn Adventure Group comes to pick you up, Wiltok, you will owe the Adventurer's House a large amount of money." Bottom looked at the confused Wiltok and said calmly but firmly: "You

It costs a total of 74 gold pagodas to eat and stay at the Adventurer's House. You have to find a way to prepare this money. If you don't have money to give me by then, something bad will happen."

Wiltok thought for a while and suddenly asked: "What is money?"

"Cough, cough, cough..." Bottom was startled by this question. He took the pipe from his mouth and coughed several times in a row. Smoke was coming out of his mouth and nose. After a while, he looked weird.

He looked at Vertok and said angrily: "Ha, how can you remember these bullshit theories about spirit and physique, but you can't remember what money is?! I wonder if you are from the Disa Alliance? Boy, you want to

Remember, in the Disa League, money is the most important thing. Money is needed to eat, clothe, and stay, money is needed to buy weapons and equipment, and money is needed to learn skills... Without money, you can't do anything.

Do you understand?"

Wiltok pursed his lips, looked at Bottom, and asked again: "What is money?"

Bottom suddenly felt like he was choking on a drink of water. He unbuttoned the top button of his shirt, took out a small gold ingot in the shape of a date stone from the drawer, handed it to Wiltok, and said calmly: "This is the alliance.

A universal gold pagoda can be exchanged for 12 silver pagodas or 144 copper pagodas. You can buy anything you want with this golden gadget..."

"I want to know who I am...can I buy it with a golden pagoda?" Weir held the golden pagoda in his hand and asked seriously. Judging from his appearance, he planned to use the golden pagoda in his hand to buy it from Bottom

Buy answers to your questions here.

Bottom scratched his hair and replied affirmatively: "Of course you can, but you have to pay attention to the method... If, I mean if the White Horn Adventure Group doesn't come to pick you up, you can publish one through the Adventurer's Home

For adventure missions, purchase information about the White Horn Adventure Group, or hire an adventure group to accompany you to search for the whereabouts of the White Horn Adventure Group. Whether you purchase information or hire an adventure group, you will need money. Oh, by the way.

There is one more important thing..."

"Boy, the golden pagoda you are holding is my money! Now, give it back to me!" The hotel owner put on a ferocious expression and extended his thick-knuckled palm to Vertok.

Wiltok looked at Bottom calmly, with no intention of letting go. The battle-experienced Red Lion Bottom suddenly felt a wave of heart palpitations, but he couldn't tell where this feeling came from, so he slowly withdrew his hand.

He held his hand and said in a self-deprecating tone: "Looking at Sarah's face, I won't argue with you. I'll lend you this golden pagoda, but you have to calculate the interest! I also want to tell you that money that doesn't belong to you can't

Take it, otherwise you will be beaten to death by others..."

Wiltok hesitated, put the gold on the table, and asked: "Then how can I get more money?"

Bottom instantly understood that this ridiculously beautiful little guy was using this gold tower to exchange him for information on how to make money.

"There are too many ways to make money, but in summary there is only one... you have to work." Bottom took the gold back happily and explained: "In Braun Town, the fastest way to make money is

Your job is to participate in outdoor adventures, but adventure activities are not suitable for you now. No adventure group will take in a patient. Fortunately, you met me, and I can help you and provide you with a job in a hotel."

Wiltok thought for a moment and asked uncertainly: "Is it shelling beans?"

"Well, yes, as long as you like it, I will pay you a wage for it."

"But I don't like shelling beans right now," Wiltok said sincerely.

Bottom met Weir's pure and deep eyes and asked without hesitation: "Then what do you like to do now?"

Will shook his head and said: "I don't know, I'll ask Sarah."

With that said, he stood up from the chair and prepared to leave Bottom's room. Bottom also stood up, and when Will was about to go out, he shouted: "Mr. Wiltok, the golden tower you just gave me is yours."

As a reward for consulting me, you now owe me 74 gold pagodas, and interest will be calculated on these arrears... In addition, I will give you a piece of advice for free. If you want to make money, you must be trustworthy."

Wiltok turned around, nodded to Bottom and said, "Thank you, Boss Bottom, you are a good man."

"Good... good person?" Bottom couldn't help but laugh. He never thought that he turned out to be a good person.

With a serious look on his face, Wiltok said: "Sarah said that if someone helps me, I should thank him and praise him as a good person."

Bottom couldn't help but retort: ​​"The person who helps you may have other motives and may not be a good person."

"Sarah also said that you won't suffer if you praise those who help you. I think she is right." Wiltok nodded, turned and walked out of the room.

Bottom sat down again slowly, took a deep breath from his cigarette, and exhaled thick smoke. Under the smoke, his face looked gloomy and uncertain.

Chatting with an amnesiac patient, the experienced veteran adventurer should have taken the lead in the conversation, but now he felt more tired than participating in a small battle.

Even if a person loses his memory, his habits will not change easily. Recall some of the details just now, for example, Wiltok grabbed the gold and refused to let go; he made it clear that he did not want to shell beans anymore; before making a decision, he wanted to hear from Shakespeare.

La's advice, and Sarah is the person he trusts most. This shows that he will not be easily led by others, even if he is an amnesia patient.

"This is a man who makes up his mind." Boss Bottom's expression gradually became serious, and he thought in his heart: "We have to look again, look again..."
