Close your eyes and become the strongest adventurer

Chapter 12 Budgeting and Accommodation

After leaving the side hall.

Xuan Yuan buckled the apprentice adventurer nameplate he got after registration at his waist.

This is a personal identification plate made with special technology, which is very strong and wear-resistant.

Similar to the soldier's nameplate on the battlefield, it is mainly used to confirm the identity of the adventurer.

If the adventurer died in the dungeon for a long time, the corpse would become unrecognizable after decay, then the identity of the corpse would be identified by the identity plate.

As he walked, he flipped through the booklet of apprentice adventurers issued by the guild in his hand.

Learned a lot about adventurers.

Looking down at the tattered long spear and the dilapidated armor in his hand, Xuan Yuan couldn't help showing a wry smile.

This is the cheapest dungeon weapons and armor.

The spear cost 3 kinnars, and the iron armor was much more expensive as armor, costing him a full 5 kinnars.

If you only look at the appearance, it is easy to have the illusion that you have been deceived and bought garbage at a high price.

The long spear in his hand is about 2 meters long, made of thick iron, the craftsmanship is quite rough, even the body of the gun is a bit crooked, only the tip of the gun can barely see a bit of sharpness.

Perhaps because it is a dungeon weapon, the body of the gun is so light that it can be wielded with one hand.

The reason why he chose a long spear was because Xuan Yuan was an amateur in cold weapon combat, knew how to shoot bows and arrows, and also understood the principle of how one inch is longer and one inch is stronger.

For beginners, it doesn't make much difference what weapon they hold, anyway, it's better to use a longer weapon to keep a safe distance from the enemy.

If it wasn't for the fact that there were no bow weapons in the guild's arsenal, or even if he had one, he couldn't afford it.

Then, he would definitely prefer to get a longbow produced by the dungeon and output from a safe distance.

The simplest thrust of the long spear is not particularly difficult, and you can barely get started with it after a few practice sessions. It can also be used part-time as a stick at ordinary times, and can be thrown out when necessary, and used as a javelin.

But if you really want to play well with guns, it will take a lot of time. After all, there are sayings such as moon sticks, year knives, and lifetime guns.

In any case, holding a two-meter long gun alone and defending with a one-handed shield can be said to be very safe.

The iron armor is a light chest armor with a square shape that protects the chest, back and ribs, exposing two arms and neck.

The material is also made of thick iron, like two pieces of iron bonded together casually, there are many uneven places on the surface, and the whole body is covered with copper rust, as if it has been placed for decades.

Fortunately, the weight of the iron armor is unbelievably light, only about one kilogram. It is somewhat uncomfortable to wear on the body, but it does not affect the flexibility of movement.

Xuan Yuan tried it, and the small dagger could not leave any traces on the worn-out iron armor.

In fact, as long as you wear any dungeon weapon or armor in this world, you can be immune to all modern firearms and missile attacks, because after wearing dungeon equipment, humans will also be protected by the same rules as dungeon monsters.

It is also the reason why almost no one in this world uses thermal weapons.

Firearms are a weapon that is being phased out in this world.

He put the spear on his shoulder casually, wore iron armor on his body, a dagger pinned to his waist, and a shield on his back.

From this moment, Xuan Yuan felt that he finally looked like an adventurer.

There is no rush to immediately go to the dungeon outside the city.

It's getting late now, and the Adventurer's Guild will get off work in a while.

It is mentioned in the brochure that novices are not recommended to attack dungeons at night.

On the one hand, it is because the night does not conform to the normal work and rest of human beings, and it will be dangerous to lose concentration. On the other hand, the number of adventurers in the dungeon at night is too small, and the monsters are completely full, and it is easy to be besieged.

Few adventurers are willing to go to dungeons late at night unless necessary.

As night falls, lights are lit up everywhere in this small town, and from time to time you can see adventurers who are smoking, drinking, or hooking their shoulders slowly walking by with the smell of alcohol in their mouths.

There are various street vendors everywhere on the street, and many businessmen are shouting hard.

The people coming and going are rubbing shoulders, and there are all kinds of exotic clothes, just like the metropolis of the previous life, it is very lively.

There are also many scantily clad women standing on the side of the street, who seem to be women engaged in some kind of special industry.

Of course, when trying to find a woman in a special service industry, I accidentally found a female adventurer in scantily clad clothes, and was pushed to the ground by the other party and beaten violently, and everyone around me applauded and booed.

Avoid the hustle and bustle of the crowd.

Xuan Yuan took out the mobile phone terminal and searched carefully.

According to the map, I walked around the town for a while, and finally found a five-story wooden hotel with high cost performance and a good reputation.

The front desk asked about housing prices.

For a single-day stay, the price is 1 silver and 20 copper per day, excluding breakfast.

If you live for a month at a stretch, you only need 22 silver, which is actually 14 silver cheaper.

Xuan Yuan hesitated for a moment, went upstairs to look at the room, and felt that the place was quiet and clean, so he simply paid one month's rent.

The reason for being so straightforward is because he had learned about it with his personal terminal in advance.

Accommodation for adventurers is a very important part.

If you don't have a good night's rest, or there are guests downstairs drinking and making noise all night, although the price will be cheaper, it will greatly affect your night's rest.

Doing other work, lack of concentration is a trivial matter.

When adventurers go down the dungeon, their attention is not concentrated, but any mistake can be the difference between life and death.

Some stores that have been open for a relatively short period of time are prone to property theft of residents because they do not have mature anti-theft methods.

After confirming your accommodation, go to the street to find a restaurant.

Sitting on a small table for one person, I was surprised to find out.

The store considerately placed a large weapon rack next to each table, which not only allows you to place weapons within easy reach, but also allows you to eat more relaxedly.

It cost 22 copper to order a bowl of the cheapest pork chop noodles.

Xuan Yuan had carefully observed the prices here when he was wandering on the street.

Eat all kinds of food sold on the street stalls, about 10 copper can eat a meal.

A meal in a hotel, tavern, or restaurant will cost at least 20 copper.

However, only considering the amount of food, as well as safety, hygiene and nutrition, it is okay to taste food from food stalls once in a while, but it is unrealistic to eat every day.

Unfortunately, I had a bad stomach, not only wasting time, but also an extra expense.

Going down the dungeon consumes a lot of physical energy, and if you don't have enough food, you will have no strength.

In the long run, it is better to eat in places with stores.

Soon, the noodles were served.

There is no MSG chicken essence to enhance the aroma, pure long-boiled original bone broth, served with golden and crispy fried eggs, and a row of neatly arranged fried pork cutlets, sprinkled with green shallots and spices.

There are also three plates of delicious side dishes, and a plate of shredded lettuce, which can be eaten with hot or sweet sauce.

The taste is light at first, but the more you eat, the more fragrant it becomes.

While eating noodles while snoring, Xuan Yuan poured out all the remaining money in the money bag on the table.

Amidst the jingling sound, a large handful of copper gnars and a few silver gnars fell out of the purse.

Count carefully.

There are only 5 silver and 73 copper left in his hand.

If calculated according to the standard of 5 copper for breakfast and 50 copper per day, within 12 days, I will completely run out of food.

Take a deep breath.

Life in reality is like this, how can there be so much romance and beauty.

In the process of chasing and realizing the ideal, the first thing to face is careful planning and various economic embarrassments.

You must constantly try to find a way to solve one sudden difficulty after another.

Sometimes, just surviving is all it takes.

I don't know, what will be the income of going to the dungeon tomorrow, can I survive here?
The train of thinking is driving in my mind, and I am eating delicious noodles in my mouth.

After eating the noodles, the taste is quite good.

Xuan Yuan, who hadn't eaten for a day, drank the noodle soup in one gulp.

Get up, grab your weapon and prepare to go back to the house early to rest.

The waiter suddenly brought a box of dessert cakes worth 30 coppers.

Xuan Yuan looked puzzled, now he can't afford high-end dessert cakes.

Only after listening to the explanation of the waiter did I know.

The owner and chef in the kitchen, seeing that he was a newcomer to dinner for the first time, specially arranged for a small gift from the waiter.

Xuan Yuan took the cake, pointed to the cake to the boss, and nodded his thanks.

The bald boss in the kitchen gave a thumbs up and shook it up and down three times.

This is a general blessing among adventurers, which means:

"Safe in and out, return with a rewarding experience."

Xuan Yuan smiled, showed his thumbs with both hands, and staggered back and forth three times.

Here is a common greeting among merchants:
"Business is booming and money is rolling in."

The fat boss couldn't help grinning.

Xuan Yuan took the cake and left the restaurant,

After walking a few steps, he deliberately turned his head and wrote down the name of the restaurant.

【The Adventurer's Home of the Old Rice】

Back at the hotel, through the window, watching the bustling lights of thousands of families in the town.

Xuan Yuan suddenly felt that he was really lucky to be able to reincarnate into a different world and live again in a different way of life while retaining his memory.

He took out his personal terminal and sent a message to his family to report that he was safe.

Close the window and put the spear and armor on the bedside.

After a simple wash, quickly fall asleep.
