Chapter 10

It seems that Dilong is very familiar with this route.

After leaving the city of Holm, the driver stopped playing the flute and let the earth dragon run on its own. The earth dragon has a huge and narrow body, but its running speed is not lower than 60 kilometers per hour, and the whole journey only takes about two hours.

The weather was fine, cloudy with no sun and no rain.

The ride was extremely pleasant.

The sense of ups and downs is not very strong, with the refreshing wind blowing, looking at the strange scenery around, two hours are fleeting.

Soon, at the end of the line of sight, I saw a small military fortress with a steel exterior wall, covering an area of ​​about 10 square kilometers, which is about the size of a small town on Earth.

This place was originally an ordinary village. After the entrance to the underground city appeared nearby, a town was built, and it was renamed Sketos Town according to the name of the underground city here.

I don't know if it is to defend against monsters near the entrance of the dungeon.

The kingdom built every town near the entrance of the dungeon into the appearance of a military fortress.

The soldiers on guard are warriors in iron armor with swords, guns, swords and shields; or long-distance occupations in robes with staffs in hand.

After passing the verification of the gatekeepers at the city gate, Dilong drove into the post station in the city.

Get off at the post station, Xuanyuan rushed to the adventurers guild here.

There is no need to ask for directions. Among the town buildings, the building with the highest floor, the largest area, and the most magnificent visual appearance must be the local Adventurer's Guild.

Come to the small square with the words [Sketos Town Adventurers Branch] hanging above your head.

Quite a number of teams of adventurers are constantly coming in and out in front of the gate.

Xuan Yuan moved his nose, and could smell the faint smell of sweat, blood and mud, and the stench of monster materials.

It is completely different from the peaceful, peaceful, clean, and refreshing atmosphere of the Adventurer's Guild headquarters in Holm City.

The atmosphere here seems a bit dull and gloomy.

Perhaps because of the dusk, the guild gates were basically full of adventurers who had just returned from the dungeon.

They are often in small groups, and the equipment on their bodies either looks very old, has various damages, or is covered with blood and mud. Many adventurers are unkempt and look very embarrassed.

Some adventurer teams are behind them, pushing a four-wheeled cart, which is full of harvest from this trip to the dungeon. The cart is tightly wrapped with cloth, so that people cannot see what is inside the cart. , and the atmosphere of these teams seemed very relaxed, and the companions were talking and laughing.

Some carts were loaded with some supplies, which were also covered with cloth, but one or several injured teammates were lying on the surface of the cloth, and the adventurers following the cart were softly comforting the injured companions.

At this time, two adventurers, a man and a woman, slowly walked out from the side hall of the Adventurers Guild pushing a cart.

In the team, there was a deathly silence.

The two dragged their heavy steps with blank eyes, and the female adventurer among them was sobbing while pushing the cart.

On their cart, there were seven corpses piled up. Many of these corpses had mutilated limbs. From the faces of the corpses, one could even see the residual shock and unrepentant panic.

Facing this cart full of corpses.

The other adventurers all stopped talking tacitly, and stood sideways on both sides of the road, making way for the two ashen-faced adventurers.

After watching the two of them push the cart away, the adventurers started talking loudly.

Xuan Yuan's ears were sharp, and he overheard the discussion of a three-person team next to him.

"Unexpectedly, the Morfa Adventure Group was almost wiped out on the fourth floor."

"Hiss! It was the Morfa Adventure Group just now? I remember that they have been upgraded to an iron-level team? All members are iron-level one-star, and the captain is a strong iron-level three-star team, and they have already conquered the first level. It's the fifth floor, how could you die on the fourth floor?"

"Hey, who knows what will happen in the next second in the dungeon? The Morfa Adventure Group is gone. Recently, the high-level power in the guild has lost a lot. I don't know if there is something wrong in the depths of the Sketos dungeon." changed."

"Damn, come on! We're not even iron-level adventurers, so stop worrying here."

"Besides, we have no choice. For us newcomers, there is no safer dungeon than here. At worst, we just need to be careful when collecting afterward. Anyway, there will be tall people standing up to us when the sky falls."

"Go back to rest early, and work harder tomorrow to continue collecting, and strive to be promoted to the iron level as soon as possible. At that time, the guild's fixed allowance can be taken, and I am very happy."

"That's right, why do you think so much?"

"Walk around, go to the tavern for a drink first, then go back to sleep!"

Having said that, the three-person team turned and left the square.

After hearing this, Xuan Yuan frowned subconsciously.

In addition to this team, he also heard some other adventurers' discussions sporadically.

The focus of everyone's discussion was mainly on the identities and strengths of the deceased.

There are no adventurers, and I am surprised that a car has died.

As a side note, the adventurers here are already familiar with corpses.

The danger in the dungeon may be even more frightening than what he knew from his previous memory.

but.

Since coming here, Xuan Yuan has already brought awareness.

In any case, he was ready to bite the bullet and give it a try first.

Take a deep breath, and walk into the gate of the Adventurer's Chapter in Sketos Town.

Inside the branch is a marble hall covering an area of ​​about [-] square meters.

The hall is divided into two areas.

An area is full of benches, like a rest area, and there is a bar-style drinking place next to it.

Adventurers in twos and threes are sitting in the rest area chatting.

The other area is separated by several wooden counters, and in front of each wooden counter is an employee wearing the official costume of the Adventurer's Guild.

In front of each counter, there are adventurers queuing up.

In addition, there is a wide driveway on the side of the hall, which ends in a huge wooden door leading to the interior of the guild.

From time to time, adventurers can be seen pushing a trolley, sending the trolley full of supplies to the wooden door, and then walking out with a number plate, waiting in line quietly in front of the counter.

The lights in the adventurer's branch hall are very soft, and after entering the adventurer's branch, the pungent and unpleasant smells all disappear, replaced by a light fragrance that calms the mind and makes people feel relaxed.

Xuan Yuan understood that there should be a deodorizing circle and a temperature circle inside, because the temperature difference between the inside and the outside is also obvious.

On a huge display wall of the guild, various text and image commissions appeared, and then quickly switched and disappeared.

In the hall, two trainee female scholars in beautiful dresses and tall hats are sitting behind a table called the "Consultation Desk", answering questions from adventurers.

Walking up to one of the trainee female scholars with classic long hair, she politely asked:

"Excuse me, do you know a trainee female scholar named Xinia?"

The other party was slightly taken aback, and then said:
"Oh, are you looking for Xinia?"

"She is currently on duty in the side hall of the guild, you can go to the side hall to find her."

"Go out and turn right, walk a few steps inside and just push the door and go in."

"Thank you." After Xuanyuan thanked him, he walked out from the main entrance and walked towards the side hall.

After walking a few steps, Xuan Yuan found out.

The side hall of the guild is where the two adventurers came out pushing the corpse of their companion.

As soon as I got outside the door, I heard an angry scolding voice from inside:

"You are such a waste!"

"I have repeatedly said, don't talk about interest, don't talk about interest, only talk about cost of labor."

"I told you, don't talk about the total amount of interest for a year, just talk about the cost of labor per day."

"Adventurers have little brains, and often have no brains."

"You are so honest, you tell the truth, who do you think you are?"

"Are you here to work, or to cause trouble?"

"It's much easier and faster for adventurers to make money than you, okay?"

"Please, can you not be such a holy mother? Don't mess with our performance all day long?"

"I finally met a big order just now, and you messed it up. I'm really going to die of anger!"

"You are like this, do you have to be happy when our branch's performance next month is only enough to drink the northwest wind?"

"You are a trainee scholar, you are lofty."

"But, can you think about it for us, our regular employees also have to eat."

"Forget it, all the good words."

"In my opinion, you, the Holy Mother, can't be cured at all."

"This month, if you still can't open a single order, please consciously pack up and leave, don't cause us trouble!"

"Our temple here is too small to accommodate your big Buddha!"
