Chapter 262 The first entrusted task (seeking the month at the beginning of the month
In the Eternal Kingdom Adventurer's Guild, players lined up in a long line to receive their work cards.
According to the settings of the "game", adventurers are divided into bronze, silver, gold, and the highest king-level adventurers. Except for the king-level adventurers, which are limited to ten people, the remaining three levels of gold, silver, and bronze are all
Relying on a certain amount of completed tasks and difficulty of task completion as a judgment.
Of course, you have to pay money.
However, the current players are all bronze-level adventurers, so when an "NPC" walked in, that is, when the old goblin walked in, all the players' attention was focused.
I saw the old goblin walking to the window where the task was released, and the top student was sitting behind the window with an expressionless expression.
As for why the top student is sitting here, it's because he told Sherlock before:
"Can you let me join the management and operation of the Adventurer's Guild? I am very interested in the social research of your people." In this case, Sherlock generously agreed to his request.
[The position of the Lich Scholar has been modified from the Resurrection Stone in the Dungeon of the Eternal Kingdom to the Task Specialist of the Adventurer Guild of the Eternal Kingdom]
After such an announcement, the position of the top student was officially transferred to the Adventurer's Guild in the old city.
Although Sherlock has arranged for the succubus Evelin to work as a receptionist in the Adventurer's Guild, considering Evelin's current wanted status and Evelin's mental pressure, Sherlock felt that another academic master should be arranged
Also a good idea.
As for Goudan's suggestion of being the boss of the permanent adventurer guild, Sherlock directly rejected it. If Goudan was arranged to come, Sherlock didn't know whether the players would do the tasks, but Goudan would definitely call these players every day.
Sherlock knew very well about working on his own.
It is better to keep creatures like black dragon cubs by your side and keep an eye on them at all times.
"Hello, how can I help you?"
The academic master who was the sitting lich said to the old goblin in front of him expressionlessly.
However, judging from the Lich's tone and the way he opened and closed his chin to try to smile, he still hoped to show a spirit of service.
"Did I hear that your Adventurer's Guild accepts any quest?"
The old goblin sat down and said tremblingly.
"Yes, whether your toilet is clogged, your house is leaking, or you even want us to help you unlock the door, our Eternal Kingdom Adventurer Guild can provide you with the best service."
The top student said, then took out a small card and handed it over:
"This is our business card. There is a contact gnome on it. You can burn the letter to us at any time according to the address."
"Thank you." The old goblin took the small card handed over by the top student, then narrowed his eyes and said tremblingly:
"The thing is actually like this. I have a grandson who is addicted to gambling and can't help himself. I hope you can help him get on the right track."
"What?! You're addicted to gambling and can't help yourself? Don't worry, I'll quit gambling. The 13th-level master will help you fulfill your wish!"
Almost as soon as the old goblin finished speaking, a goblin behind him jumped out and spoke. Not only this goblin, but also many other goblins had already formed a circle behind the first customer.
"How dare you call me a master when you're only level 13? I'm level 15 and I'm talking?"
"Old man, don't worry, my military style boxing skills are very good. As long as I teach my military style boxing to your grandson, I guarantee that he will find his way back and never miss Shaxian snacks again."
"Old man, please give me your grandson's mobile phone number. We are all gambling friends. If you can help, I will help. I closed my eyes and pressed zero for him. It is fate to play more or less."
The players immediately started laughing and talking, seemingly not feeling that this was a sad thing at all.
"Everyone stand in line. Our union has a complete set of rules. You don't just accept the tasks you say you want."
The top student shouted to the players.
At this time, Sherlock had already walked over, with a warm smile on his face. Goudan was holding a cup of bloody chrysanthemum tea behind him, drinking it as he walked. When the cup reached the bottom, he walked right in front of the old goblin, and then drank it.
The empty cup was handed to the old man's hand:
"Old man, you have tea."
The old goblin was so frightened by Goudan's dragon power that he couldn't sit still.
Sherlock came over, of course, to start the plot. His coercion immediately controlled the players who were talking nonsense. Otherwise, the first customer would be scared away, which would not be a good sign.
The old goblin took the cup tremblingly, and Sherlock said:
"This customer, you are very smart. You came to our Adventurer's Guild for help. No matter what kind of request you have, we can help you complete it. All you need is to fill in a form and pay the fee in advance. The rest
Just leave it to us. By the way, we charge a service fee, which is 5% of the remuneration, with a minimum of five magic stones. Since you are our first customer, this handling fee can be waived for you."
After Sherlock finished speaking, the old goblin filled out the form according to the top student's instructions, and then stood up and thanked Sherlock.
The mission he issued was also very simple, which was to follow an address, bring his grandson out, and persuade his grandson to never gamble again.
By the way, he also turned on the elderly mode and talked about his family situation.
It's nothing more than that the grandson got married, but he didn't work hard to make money and was addicted to gambling. He dreamed that one day he could make a fortune through gambling. Of course, the result was that the family was ruined and his wife was separated. Now the whole family rents a house outside.
It's so miserable, I can't even pay next month's rent.
This old goblin's only wish is that his grandson can return from his lost ways, stop being addicted to gambling, and become a meaningful person to society.
After telling the story and filling out the form, Sherlock asked the old goblin to go back. As for the players outside, they followed the old goblin in small groups. As for why Sherlock didn't know, he didn't ask.
I guess I just want to follow along and see if there is no follow-up plot.
"People of the Eternal Kingdom Dungeon, we have our first commissioned task. This task sounds simple, but it is not easy. Most people who are addicted to gambling are more evil than devils. If you want to stop them, there is no way.
It is almost as difficult as making Satan believe in the Holy Light, but you have to give it a try."
Sherlock looked at the players firmly and said:
"The first task must be completed by the strongest warrior. So let's start the bidding now. It starts with one silver coin, and you must add one hundred copper coins each time. If you have one hundred magic stones, you can buy it at a fixed price."
