Chapter 5 Gearing up

The Adventurer's House Hotel is the largest building in Braun Town. It covers an area of ​​nearly 1,000 square meters, with 5 floors upstairs and downstairs, and hundreds of guest rooms. The Qin and Whistle Adventure Group rented three interconnected rooms on the fourth floor of the hotel.

In a large room, 2 female members and 3 male members occupy the rooms on the left and right sides respectively, leaving the middle room as a common living room.

The rent for a suite room like this is not cheap, but the Qin and Whistle Adventure Group, backed by the famous Golden Sunflower family, has plenty of funds. They don't need to go out for adventure, and they can stay in the hotel and enjoy the top-notch services.

In fact, the young people in the adventure group are more willing to take care of the hotel lobby, which will help them make new friends in Braun Town, learn about adventure information, and become familiar with the surrounding environment. However, Carl accidentally offended the hotel clerk Will two days ago.

Tok, the fat cook Sarah took off his pants in public and slapped his butt wildly on the table. His butt is still swollen, and it hurts like a needle when he sits down, so he can only lie in bed to recover. And the adventure group

The other young people in the hotel were too embarrassed to go to the hotel lobby and listen to the taunts and ridicules of the guests.

Therefore, except for the leader Charlie who often went out, the four young people of the Qin and the Whistle adventure group simply huddled in the guest room, hoping to wait for the storm to pass before starting their own work.

It's lunch time now, and as usual, the hotel's servants will bring food to the guest room for them to enjoy. The footsteps of two people came from the corridor outside the door, stopped at the door of the guest room, and the sound of fingers tapping the door panel was immediately heard into the house.

Anne walked over, preparing to open the door to let the servant who delivered the food in. She habitually opened the small window on the door, took a look outside, and then closed the window with a "bang".

When everyone else thought that Annie was about to open the door, they saw her stroking her plump chest with one hand, running to the entrance, starting to adjust her appearance in the mirror, and turned to her companions and said with lips: "It's Wiltok...

”.

Katie, another female member of the adventure group, was sitting lazily on the sofa. When she read Annie's lip reading, she immediately jumped up and hurriedly checked her clothes. Their surprised performance made the adventure group

The male members are very confused. Should they take the opportunity to laugh at them, or should they take care of themselves?

Outside the door, the waiter Piru, who was holding a large dinner plate, was about to knock on the door again when the door was opened. When he saw the pretty Anne, he showed a flattering smile on his face and said: "Miss Anne, your lunch."

…”

Anne looked directly past Piru, looked at Wiltok behind him, and said with a bright smile: "Mr. Wiltok, you are welcome to be a guest of the Qin and Whistle Adventure Group. Please come in."

Piru said with a stunned expression: "We are here to deliver lunch..."

Katie, who is petite and has pretty features, squeezed past Piru, took the dinner plate from Wiltok's hand, and said enthusiastically: "It's difficult for you to take the plate, let me help."

Piru, who was holding the plate with one hand, watched Wiltok, who was empty-handed, being pushed into the living room by Miss Katie, with a wonderful expression on his face.

After entering the house, Charlie, the leader of the adventure group, and two other male companions stood up to greet the hotel clerks who delivered the food, mainly Wiltok. Piru, who was squeezed to the end, seemed to have found a savior and said hurriedly:

"Captain Charlie, we are here to deliver food..."

Charlie actually ignored him and said politely to Wiltok: "Mr. Wiltok, I apologize to you for Karl's reckless behavior last time. Lady Sarah has punished Karl severely. I hope this matter

It didn’t cause you any trouble.”

The waiter Piru was completely desperate and silently placed the food on the plate on the table one by one.

Wiltok raised his pure amber eyes and looked into Charlie's eyes. Forced by his appearance, the retired sergeant major of the Rock Giant Legion involuntarily bowed his head in greeting. However, Wiltok didn't care, he still remembered himself

To do his job, he walked to the dining table and helped Piru put the dazzling array of dishes on the table.

After all the dishes were placed, he looked at Piru and seriously reminded: "Piru, it's time for you to introduce the menu to the guests."

All the members of the Qin and the Whistle adventure group finally focused their attention on Piru. Piru suddenly felt like crying and said quickly: "Today's main course is grilled pine otter meat skewers and steamed mud scorpion, with a side of

Fresh sweet gum berries, long cabbage leaves, barley soup, and apple pie for five people, plus a can of mixed fruit stuffing. I would like to especially introduce the grilled pine otter meat and steamed mud scorpion, which were cooked by Wiltok himself.

The new dishes taste great. I wish the generous gentleman and the beautiful lady a happy lunch.”

Anne's eyes lit up. She looked at the exquisite dishes on the table and asked in surprise, "Mr. Wiltok made lunch? I didn't expect you could cook?"

Wiltok was looking around at the layout of the living room. When he heard Anne's question, he turned his head and asked with an indifferent expression: "Are you satisfied?"

Everyone looked at each other. Katie was the first to react, nodded and smiled: "These dishes smell good and look good. They must be delicious. I am very satisfied."

Wiltok immediately turned to look at Piru, who had an embarrassed expression on his face, and said seriously: "The guest is satisfied with the food I cooked. It's time for you to collect the reward, and then give me half of it."

Piru, the shop assistant, laughed twice, rubbed his hands, and said nonchalantly: "How can you ask for rewards from customers? Haha, Miss Katie, please don't mind, Will's injury... is not healed yet." As he said that, he raised his hand.

, pointed to his head, meaning that there was something wrong with Wiltok's head.

Anne took out a small purse and handed it to Wiltok's hand. She took the opportunity to hold his hand and said sympathetically: "Vil, we heard about your experience and hope you can get better as soon as possible. If anything happens to you,

If you encounter difficulties, you can come here to find me, and my companions and I are willing to help you."

When Wiltok heard that Anne was willing to help him, his eyes flashed, he thought for a moment, and asked: "What are your names?"

Captain Charlie coughed, pointed to his companions and introduced them one by one: "My name is Charlie, the leader of the Jean and Whistle adventure group; this is Annie; she is Katie; that is Thomas; and Carl, you should know.

"

Wiltok nodded, took a step back, broke away from Anne's little hand, and said very sincerely: "Charlie, you are a good person; Anne, you are a good person; Katie is a good person; Thomas is a good person; Carl... is also a good person.

Good guy?"

Suddenly being praised by Wiltok as a good person, Charlie and his companions were stunned for a while, and then couldn't help laughing. However, seeing Wiltok's serious look, they wanted to laugh but did not dare to laugh, and the expressions on their faces looked very complicated.

The other party first expressed their willingness to help him, and he also praised them as good people, so Wiltok thought that he could now let Charlie and the others help with peace of mind, and asked: "Do you know me?"

Everyone exchanged glances with each other, and then glanced at Piru, the hotel clerk next to him. Captain Charlie considered and said: "Wirtok, we only heard about your experience when we came to Braun Town. Before that, we didn't know you. You

It’s... you can’t remember who you are and want to retrieve your past memories?”

There was a disappointed expression on Wiltok's handsome face. He nodded and asked unwillingly: "Then do you know about the 'White Horn' adventure group?"

Charlie still shook his head and said: "I haven't heard of it."

"Do you know Lina? Boss Bottom said she is my sister, but I don't remember her."

"Lina... this name is very common. If she didn't have a title recognized by the Adventurers' Guild, we wouldn't know her true identity." Charlie saw Wiltok's confused face, shook his head again and said, "Okay, we don't know her.

Lena.”

"I don't even know him." Wiltok sighed, raised his head again, and asked again with expectant eyes: "There is a rapidly rotating golden light group in my head. I want it to stop. Can you help me?"

?"

The golden light group is still spinning rapidly?

The first reaction of all the members of Qin and the Whistle Adventure Group was that this ridiculously beautiful young man was indeed seriously ill and was hallucinating.

Charlie pondered for a moment and said vaguely: "Well... we know a very smart doctor, and I think he might be able to help you... We will contact him first, and we will let you know when we have any news."

Piru, the shopkeeper, suddenly interrupted and said: "There are also professional doctors in Braun Town. Boss Bartome said that he will ask a doctor to check Ver's body in two days. Distinguished and generous guest, if you don't have any instructions, Wiltok and I have to go

After work, there are still many customers waiting for us to deliver food... I wish you a happy lunch and see you later."

After saying that, he pulled Wiltok and walked outside the house. Katie called from behind: "Vil, I will go find you."

Her voice was sweet and soft, with an ambiguous tone, like a girl in love. It could be heard throughout the corridor, making those who heard it think that she and Wiltok were very close. But Katie closed the door and

Her whole person became cautious and calm again, and she whispered to her companion Anne: "How do you feel?"

Anne raised her beautifully shaped palms and said calmly: "Wiltok's hands have well-proportioned finger bones and delicate skin that even I am jealous of. I am certain that he has never practiced any kind of weapon, and he can never be a chef. In addition, he has never practiced any kind of weapons.

, his blood flow rate and heartbeat rate are very stable, but his potential is insufficient. This proves that he did not lie just now, nor has he awakened his expertise. If you ignore the stunning figure and appearance, little Mr. Wiltok is just an ordinary amnesia patient.

"

Adventurer Karl lowered his head to examine the dishes on the table, frowned and said: "This is strange. I believe that the dishes Piru sent this time are definitely not food that can be made in the hotel. Although the ingredients are still country bumpkin ingredients, the workmanship, fragrance,

The presentation is in the style of a famous highland family... How does it taste if I try it?"

He picked up a skewer of hot roasted otter meat, put it to his mouth, took a bite, chewed slowly for a moment, nodded and commented: "The taste is very good, I should say it is unexpectedly good... You guys should try it too."

"

Everyone gathered around the table and began to enjoy the rare food. Katie grabbed the kebab with both hands, swung her arms around, and smiled happily. She puffed up her cheeks and said vaguely: "Wiltok has an outstanding appearance and a noble temperament. He looks like a man."

The young master from a famous family in trouble. However, I have never heard of a young master from a famous family who likes to cook, and his hands are not like those of a chef who often cooks. If he just provides the cook Sarah with the recipes of famous dishes,

How could Sarah master the cooking skills of a famous chef in just a few days?"

Thomas said: "Have you noticed that Wiltok has a natural charm? Anyone who meets him for the first time will be affected by him and unknowingly put himself in a lower position, but as time goes by,

As time goes by, his charming influence gradually decreases. This means that he does not know how to use his extraordinary charm."

Captain Charlie glanced at him and asked: "Thomas, what do you want to say?"

Thomas smiled and continued: "High-level animal trainers with the Awakening Intelligence specialty have the ability to confuse the mind, which can continuously exert influence on the animal companions, enhance control, and at the same time guide the growth of the animal companions. The animal trainer's confuse the mind is a

It is a high-level active skill, and Wiltok's charm is more like a natural trait. If he comes from a famous family, he should know how to use his traits."

"Yes, even if Wiltok begins to recover his memory, the first thing he will think of is the secret skills of a famous family. This is the most important and profound thing about being a descendant of a famous family. He will not think of cooking recipes first." Charlie shook his head and laughed.

Young people are inexperienced, so they have to look at the specific target to make a correct evaluation. As outstanding talents who graduated from Coral Academy, Carl and others can win the favor of the heirs of top families. Of course, they will not be simple-minded young rookies. They said a few words

Just peeled away the layer of fog that shrouded Wiltok.

Anne's eyes shone and she said slightly excitedly: "Wiltok is not a descendant of a famous family, so he must have some kind of special relationship with a famous family!"

Several young people looked at each other and saw a similar guess in each other's eyes, but they all tacitly agreed not to say the answer. Thomas said covertly: "In short, based on Wiltok's beauty and characteristics, Steven

Mr. Mori may be able to use him to please a certain lady from the famous Golden Sunflower family."

The young man's little moves couldn't be hidden from Charlie's eyes. He felt a little irritated, forced himself to calm down, took on the posture of the leader of the adventure group, and said: "If Wiltok is useful to the master, you should find a way to get close to him and spy on him."

It’s a secret. As for recruiting members, I will be responsible for forming the adventure group.”

*****************

In the innermost room on the third floor of the hotel, Boss Bottom sat at the dining table smoking a pipe with a pipe in his hand. Two middle-aged men gathered around the dining table and ate skewers and steamed mud scorpions.

"Delicious."

A strong man in a guard uniform dropped the juicy scorpion shell, picked up a rag and wiped his oil-stained hands, and said with unfinished content: "I never thought that the unpalatable mud scorpion could be so delicious...

…I guess that Wiltok must be a chef who escaped from a famous family.”

Another thin man with sinister eyes said: "If a famous chef has half the beauty of Wiltok, he will definitely not be a chef!"

The strong guard smiled obscenely and said: "That's right. I heard that some ladies from famous families in the highlands have special hobbies. The Earth Temple in the main city will cultivate beautiful little boys for their entertainment. Wiltok may be one of them.

The most outstanding... leader, someone has given me a message and is willing to pay 5,000 gold pagodas, please let us go."

Bottom put down his pipe and said calmly: "Is it that slave trader Rhodes? He has friendships with some big shots in the main city. He has made a lot of money from the slave trade business in Braun Town in the past few years, and now he is eyeing Vitor.

Well, all I can say is that his courage and appetite are getting bigger and bigger."

The middle-aged guard sneered: "I'm not a fool. Rhodes brought Wiltok to the main city and sold it for 50,000 gold pagodas."

The thin man also smiled and said: "Harry, I heard that you want to sell Wiltok to a famous family in Fallen Leaf City and make a lot of money."

Harry turned around, looked at him sideways, and asked, "Cole, don't you want to?"

Cole smiled and shook his head and said: "No, I will not sell Wiltok, but the environment in Braun Town is not suitable for a weak and beautiful little guy. I will recommend him, or introduce him to the famous highland families in Fallen Leaf City, and then, generously

The famous master will reward me with 50,000 gold pagodas."

Harry rolled his eyes and said dissatisfied: "What's the difference between this and selling?"

"The difference is that you will be beaten into a puddle of pulp by Sarah with a rolling pin, and I won't be as unlucky as you."

Harry and Cole bickered with each other, while Bottom laughed and said nothing. They were both old comrades in the same adventure group. After becoming famous, they all settled in Braun Town. Harry became the deputy captain of the Braun Town Guard, and Cole

He is the only doctor in the town. In addition to them, there are several other old friends who also hold important positions in Braun Town. Led by Bottom, everyone has the right to speak in Braun Town. No adventure group can bypass them.

, take the valuable Wiltok away from Braun Town.

Bottom and Wiltok are not related. Whether it is selling him to a famous highland family or recommending him to a big shot in the main city, the old adventurer will not feel any guilt. In fact, if Wiltok has

It would be better for him to have the opportunity to be appreciated by a famous highland family than to stay in an adventurer town.

What Bottom is really worried about is Vertok's troubles. He still understands that the greater the benefits, the greater the troubles.

He knocked the table with his pipe and said slowly: "Actually, Rhodes is willing to take unknown risks. His price of 5,000 gold pagodas for Wiltok is not too much. But if we want to build on our credibility, 5,000 gold pagodas are not too much."

It’s far from enough. After all, I am the head of the Braun Town Adventure Guild, and Wiltok is a wounded person fostered by the White Horn Adventure Group in the Adventurer’s Home.”

Harry immediately said: "So, I think 50,000 gold pagodas is the appropriate price."

Bottom shook his head and said solemnly: "It's not that simple. Wiltok's value may be more than 50,000 gold pagodas, and it can't even be measured in money..." He paused for a moment and continued: "In the past two days, Wiltok

I explored every room in the hotel and asked people when I saw them, who knows him? It seems that the Adventurer's House can't contain him... I want to let him out, contact more people, and let outsiders test him.

The origin and background of the incident, we are watching from the sidelines.”

Harry asked in confusion: "Boss, what do you mean by this? As long as all the adventure groups with connections in the main city are interested in Vertok, aren't you worried about them kidnapping Vertok?"

Boss Bottom sneered and said disdainfully: "You all please remember that we are not an adventure group with nothing now. There is no need to monopolize all the benefits, and there is no need to bear all the risks alone. Let those adventure groups go first.

Investigate the secrets about Vertok."

"...I estimate that Braun Town will be very lively this winter."
