Chapter 66 Adventurer's Paradise
The No. 7C82 stronghold is called the worry-free city by the locals. The reason for this name is that this stronghold has encountered animal hordes many times and suffered heavy casualties. In order to express their good expectations for the future, people named the base as worry-free city.
What is more strange is that after having this name, this stronghold seems to be favored by the god of fate, and there has not been another beast tide for hundreds of years after that.
Nowadays, the pace of life in the whole city is very slow, and the residents are living and working in peace and contentment. The life is peaceful, and it has really become a worry-free place.
When Lin Huang arrived in Wuyou City, it was one o'clock in the afternoon. He did not set off immediately, but went to Adventurer's Paradise.
Adventurer's Paradise, formerly a subordinate organization of the Hunter Association, called the Adventurer's Guild, specializes in recruiting adventure-loving powerhouses to carry out some expedition tasks. However, as the Hunters Association slowly transferred its adventure work, the Adventurers Guild was separated from the Hunters Association and became an independent organization, and was renamed Adventurers Paradise.
The Hunter Association itself is a relatively loose organization. It is more similar to a training institution that continuously cultivates talents, but cannot control the loss of these talents, especially the loss of high-end talents. The Adventurer's Guild was established in the first place to retain talents.
Today, Adventurer's Paradise is more restrictive. It has completely different rules from the Hunter Association. Those who join the Paradise need to accept tasks on a regular basis. Compared with the Hunter Association, the management is more formal.
Although Adventurer's Paradise has long been independent, the two are actually brothers.
Lin Huang found the location of Adventurer's Paradise because he could not go deep into Wangyou Forest by himself.
Wangyou Forest is an area about 3,000 kilometers southwest of Wuyou City. In this direction, there is not even a small stronghold. In fact, it was built many times in the past, but it was destroyed by beast hordes many times, causing heavy casualties, so it was not built at all.
Without a stronghold, there would be no stopping point for the wind eagle, let alone a portal.
Moreover, there is no human habitation, which also leads to the fact that the range of these 3,000 kilometers is full of large and small wild areas, ranging from first-level to third-level.
Even if Lin Huang took the third-tier black iron sand slaughter, the road was quite unsafe. Therefore, he needs to find an adventure team with at least a silver-level powerhouse to enter the Wangyou Forest together.
He quickly found the station of Adventurer's Paradise in the stronghold, and the entrance was very lively with people coming and going.
Entering the interior of the station, Lin Huang looked around for a while. It was similar to the station of the Hunter Association. The architectural style was similar, but the atmosphere was a little different.
It is also a huge square office hall, and it is also a polygonal light-transmitting dome with a height of more than ten meters. But the warm pale yellow walls are completely different from the serious off-white of the Hunters Guild. Also, the color of the floor is also different. The one used here is also light yellow, but the Hunter Association uses gray black.
Just as Lin Huang was looking around, a young waitress came over, "Sir, what service do you need?"
"I want to find a team of adventurers to go to Wangyou Forest together." Lin Huang stated the purpose of his trip.
"I'll check it out for you." The waitress smiled and nodded, and then led Lin Huang to a service desk. After a few meetings, the query results came out. "For you, I found out that there is a team going to Wangyou Forest recently. This team will leave in four days. You are lucky. The leader of this team is Jin Jingjing. She has a mission and may stay in Wangyou Forest for a week. Around. The next team will not set off until twelve days later."
"Of course, you can also consider hiring a separate team of adventurers to escort you there, and then let them send you back after you have finished what you have to do. However, this will cost a lot."
Lin Huang has already checked on the Internet, and there are two ways to go with the adventurer team. One is that the adventurer team itself has a mission to take it along, and the other is to directly hire the adventurer. The cost of the latter is very high, and at least one credit point equivalent to several Life Shards needs to be consumed a day. As for the former, the price of one or two Shards can be sent back and forth at most.
However, hearing that the team leader accompanying this time turned out to be the Golden Realm, Lin Huang of course chose the former decisively, "There is no need to hire alone, I will wait a few days."
"The accompanying fee is 200,000 credit points. Before you pay, there is a special clause for you to go to Wangyou Forest." After the waitress finished speaking, a page popped up in front of her. "Please read it carefully before making a decision whether to accept the terms or not."
Lin Huang looked at it. It was an exemption clause. The general meaning of the clause was that the life safety of the guests who went to Wangyou Forest after arriving in Wangyou Forest was not within the protection scope of the escort team, and the escort team was only responsible for the safety on the way. If the guest dies in Wangyou Forest, the escort team is not responsible, and the related expenses will not be refunded.
Lin Huang nodded after reading it, "If they finish their work a week after arriving in Wangyou Forest, and I haven't finished mine, how many days can they wait?"
"It will wait up to three days. After three days, whether you are alive or dead, they will set off for the return journey. According to our rules, if you cannot arrive at the gathering point within three days of the agreed time, we will consider you as you. already dead."
"Of course, if you really have something to delay, you can also apply for an extension online, but the cost of the delay will be calculated according to the individual employment. And whether to accept the delay depends on the escort team's own wishes." The waiter explained in great detail, "If the escort team refuses to delay, you can only apply for another separate employment, but in this case, the new team will have to count the cost of two round trips."
"Understood, I accept." Lin Huang nodded, decisively scanned a blank space in the lower right corner of the disclaimer with the Emperor Heart Ring, and his identity information was quickly printed.
"Please check the contract, and if there is no problem, just scan the payment stripe at the end." Another page popped up from the waitress.
This is a simple employment contract. Lin Huang glanced at it a little, then turned to the end, and scanned the payment stripe with the Emperor Heart Ring. This thing is kind of like a payment barcode on Earth, but more beautiful, with beautiful colors and patterns.
After a while, the deduction information was sent, and the waitress also showed that the account was received.
"The employment relationship has been created. The adventurer team will contact you soon. Please record the time and place of the meeting." The waitress reminded again.
"Well, I see, thank you." Lin Huang nodded, and then walked outside the station.
After leaving Adventurer's Paradise, Lin Huang plans to find a hotel to stay first, and the team will set off after four days. He can take advantage of these few days to practice swordsmanship and see if he can accumulate a complete skill card before departure.
Lin Huang was inquiring about the hotel information on the Internet, and suddenly a communication message popped up. It was a very simple text: "Leave at nine in the morning in three days, and gather at the South Gate."
Seeing this message, the corner of Lin Huang's lips twitched, "The text messages are so concise, it seems that he is a guy who doesn't like to communicate very much. It's just right, I rarely enjoy a clean trip along the way."
