Chapter 42 The Return
Blackstone inhabited area, ordinary area.

Branch of the Knifesmiths Guild.

There are people coming and going in the spacious and bright hall, with white knives on their waists. The sharp-smelling knife-smiths either gather together to chat and chat, or line up in front of the counter, preparing to hand over tasks and exchange supplies.

In the not-so-long line, a young man with a bulging backpack and a calm demeanor was quite conspicuous. Many people secretly looked at this young man with an unfamiliar face.

After more than ten minutes, Lin Ze was finally in line. He took off his backpack and put it on the counter. Two staff members quickly took the backpack and opened it, poured out the worm cores and prepared to count them.

After a clattering noise, three or four hundred insect nuclei appeared on the wooden counter, which attracted many people's surprised gazes.

"There are 358 first-level insect cores, 14 second-level insect cores, and a total of 498 merit points. May I ask whether they should be exchanged for credit points or other materials?" The two staff quickly finished counting.

"Credit points." Lin Ze handed out his identity card.

"Ok!"

The staff member took the ID card with both hands, dripped it on the sensor next to it, and then looked at the computer screen, his eyes widened, and he looked up at Lin Ze in shock.

Is this person a novice apprentice knifesmith?Just going out to hunt insects for the first time?

How can it be?

Not to mention such a large number of first-level bug cores, there are bug cores of elite steel soldier bugs in it!Not just one!You must know that it is a second-level insect beast!

A rookie apprentice knifesmith actually killed 14 second-level insect beasts?
Could it be a system error?
"what happened?"

Seeing the hesitant look of the staff, Lin Ze asked lightly.

"No, nothing!" The staff and the companion looked at each other, tapped on the keyboard, and quickly completed the exchange, returning the identity card to Lin Ze, "It has been exchanged."

"Thank you."

Lin Ze nodded lightly, "In addition, I have a message to report, which is related to the ruins of the C7 city. What process do I need to follow?"

"You can wait in the room over there, and we will notify our colleagues to discuss with you later!" The staff unconsciously used honorifics.

Lin Ze thanked him, went to wait in the room on the right side of the hall, and checked the credit points in the identity card.

One meritorious service point of the Knifesmiths Guild can be exchanged for 1 credit points, which means that his total gain from this trip is 10 credit points, which is worth more than a month's salary of ordinary people in ordinary areas.

And this is just the harvest of a novice trainee knifesmith who went out once!

Although Lin Ze's strength is comparable to that of a third-level swordsmith, the earning power of a swordsmith can be seen from this.

Just as his thoughts were racing, the room was pushed away from the outside. Pan Zongchang walked in, his eyes fell on Lin Ze, and he said with a smile: "We meet again."

Lin Ze frowned, a little surprised, it was just to report a news, need to trouble the deacon of the guild?
As if he had guessed what Lin Ze was thinking, Pan Zongchang smiled and said, "I heard that you came to exchange supplies, so I wanted to meet you."

"You have gained a lot from this trip!"

While saying these words, Pan Zongchang was also secretly shocked deep in his heart.

No wonder he was so surprised, Lin Ze's performance was really unbelievable. He practiced alone, harvested hundreds of insect cores, and killed fourteen second-level insect beasts. It is enough to be called excellent, not to mention all concentrated on one person.

He couldn't help asking, "Did you hunt all the bug nuclei alone?"

After finishing the sentence, he hurriedly added, "Sorry, I didn't question you, but it's really unbelievable!"

"It's ok."

Lin Ze waved his hand to express that he didn't mind, "I did hunt for these."

Seeing Lin Ze's own admission, Pan Zongchang took a breath without any trace, suppressed the shock in his heart, and said after considering: "Lin Ze, you really don't want to consider becoming a core member of our guild. Improve it."

"Sorry, I still stick to my original idea."

"That's it"

Pan Zongchang sighed secretly, turned serious and said, "You said that there is news about the ruins of C7 city, what exactly is it?"

Lin Ze explained how he saw the giant tank worm. After listening, Pan Zongchang couldn't help frowning and said, "It's really strange. I remember that I haven't seen a giant tank worm near the settlement area for a long time."

After a while, he nodded to Lin Ze and said, "Thank you for your report. We will send someone to investigate later. As a reward for providing information, we will credit 1000 credits to your account later!"

"I see, thank you!"

When leaving the guild branch, Lin Ze bumped into an acquaintance by accident.

"Su Rin!"

Hearing the sound, the girl with the ponytail turned her head in surprise, and seeing that it was Lin Ze, a smile appeared on her face.

"Have you passed the graduation examination?" Lin Ze looked at Su Rin with a smile.

Since she was able to meet Su Rin in the guild hall, she had probably become an apprentice knifesmith and joined the knifesmith guild.

Sure enough, Su Rin smiled lightly and nodded, "I just passed the assessment yesterday, so come here today to get the supplies."

"Core members?"

"Yes."

"congratulation!"

"Thank you!"

Su Rin pursed her lips, "The guild arranged a house for me, which happens to be nearby. Although I'm not a neighbor, you can come to me to learn sword skills if you have time in the future."

When mentioning saber technique, Lin Ze suddenly reacted, and said in surprise, "Have you made a breakthrough in saber technique?"

He remembered that Su Rin said that he planned to wait for his sword skills to improve before applying for the assessment.

"Yes."

Seeing Su Rin admit it frankly, Lin Ze couldn't help sighing with emotion.

His sword skill has now risen to Lv3, but recalling the duel with Su Lin, he still feels far inferior to him in comparison, so Su Lin's sword skill level is likely to be Lv4, and now he has broken through again, that is Lv5, the excellence of talent is simply amazing.

In the world of "Wasteland Knife Language", the importance of knife skills is second only to soul knives. If Su Lin can get another advanced knife casting formula, he can basically foresee a bright future in the future.

Without the player Lin Ze, Su Rin would probably be the son of a plane in this world.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help asking: "Have you got the formula for casting a knife?"

"Not yet." Su Lin shook his head and said, "The guild will investigate for a period of time before deciding whether to give me the superior formula. At present, I can only absorb the steel attribute soul energy first."

"So that's how it is." Lin Ze understood, and couldn't help but think of the contract given to him by the guild and chamber of commerce when he graduated. There was no so-called probation period on it. It seems that these two organizations are indeed very sincere.

While chatting, the two walked towards home. When they passed by Su Lin's new home, they went in to meet with Xiaojie Xiaowen. After getting along with each other some time ago, the two little guys and Lin Ze were already very familiar.

Leaving Su Lin's house, Lin Ze went straight home.

After only a day's rest, he purchased food and water, and then left the settlement with a tactical backpack on his back to hunt in the ruins of the C7 city.
