Chapter 44
Lin Qian looked at Asher on the other side.
She who was originally sitting motionless, suddenly glanced out the window.
Just when Lin Qian felt that something was wrong, as the sound of horses' hooves stopped, the carriage slowly stopped.
"Haha! How dare you walk through the forest like this without an escort?
A rough voice sounded from outside the carriage.
Could it be a robber? Lin Qian thought.
Because in this medieval fantasy world, robbers, thieves and monsters are everywhere on the road.
Previously, when driving from the Overlord Castle to Enrok, there was no bandit group because of the escort pick-up, but now without the escort, the situation is different.
Now this happened, Lin Qian did not expect it.
"Get out of the carriage quickly, hand over all your things, and... Yes! "
Screams came from outside the carriage.
The sound of something being torn apart and horrible screams wandered outside the car, and then it quickly quieted down.
Lin Qian secretly opened the window and poked his head out to see the scattered corpses and the blood stains left on Barros' hands towel wiping the remaining blood on his glasses.
Beside him, there was a wind-like thing that formed a human form, and then dissipated with the wind, and Lin Qian guessed that it might be an elf summoned by Baros.
After Barros and Lin Qian looked at each other, they immediately lowered their heads as if apologizing and said
, "Sorry, I ran into some garbage and had to deal with it."
"It's okay." Lin Qian said.
Then Barros climbed into the driver's seat and started the carriage again.
It didn't seem necessary for Asher to do it, and she didn't mean to do it.
... ...
Lin Qian then continued to drive towards their destination, encountering some thieves and monsters on the way, but they were quickly disposed of by Barros.
I don't know how long it took, Lin Qian and the others finally arrived at their destination, the territory of the fifth lord - Saroga.
Lin Qian is now located in the northern border of the city of Colvajon.
After resting for a night in a high-end hotel to wash away his exhaustion, early the next morning, Lin Qian went to the adventurers' guild in the city.
"I grabbed that monster's horn in the nick of time, and then I pushed hard..." "
Lisa, how about a drink together tonight?" Well? I made a lot of money on the last commission, and I invite you tonight. The
atmosphere inside the guild building was exactly the same as Lin Qian imagined.
There are all kinds of adventurers here, some looking for commissions, some looking for teammates, and some bragging about their achievements.
Lin Qian looked at it for a while, then walked to the counter, and a beast woman immediately came over with a smile and asked
, "Welcome, young master." Do you have any commissions to post?
Lin Qian guessed that the other party should judge his identity based on his dress, because his dress was different from everyone else's.
Lin Qian nodded and asked,
"Who in this city knows the topography of the Tyrell Mountains best?"
She answered without thinking.
"Are you looking for an adventurer who knows the Tyrell Mountains, do you need a guide?"
"Yes."
"Do you require the other person to be an adventurer or an ordinary person?"
"No requirements."
"Then I recommend the Green Fox Adventure Team, the leader Mr. Rodin is a first-class adventurer and quite famous in this city, they are sitting there now, do you need to meet him?"
The woman pointed to several men and women sitting around the railing on the second floor, who seemed to be discussing something.
When Lin Qian followed her up the stairs and approached them, their conversation stopped.
There are five adventurers, both male and female, each armed with swords, guns, bows and other weapons.
[LV.36]
The female receptionist was talking to the highest-ranking man, and Lin Qian saw a giant sword standing next to the table.
"Mr. Rodin, I have a commission here, this young master said that he is looking for an adventurer who is familiar with the Tyrell Mountains, can you take him there?"
"Huh? Entrust?
He looked back and forth between Lin Qian and the woman, scratching his beard and saying
, "Chelsea, my side has already taken an escort mission to Hydra City in three days, don't you know?"
"Is it? Can you take him then?
"No, I'm sorry, I don't think I can accept this request, sir, please find someone else."
Chelsea had a look of disappointment on their faces.
Lin Qian asked Chelsea:
"Are these guys the people you know most familiar with the Tyrrell Mountains?"
"Yes, but... I'm sorry, young master. But they have already taken other commissions, so I'll find you someone else.
Lin Qian shook his head, turned to the adventurers and said
, "If that's the case, I'll pay more than the bounty they commissioned." So, can you cancel their commission and accept mine?
Listening to Lin Qian's words, Rodin smiled slightly, and then replied:
"I'm sorry I can't do that, sir. If I cancel the entrustment, I must pay liquidated damages that are several times the prepayment of the entrustment. "
This is rightfully sought, and if the adventurer unilaterally cancels the commission without authorization, he will naturally need to bear some compensation.
Lin Qian spoke again:
"What is the liquidated damages?"
"The advance payment we have received is 5 gold coins, and if the commission is canceled, we need to pay a liquidated penalty of 10 gold coins."
"Then, I give a bounty of 20 gold coins, can you cancel the commission and accept my commission?"
Luo Dan's eyes widened, as if Lin Qian had said something incredible from his mouth.
After thinking for a long time, in the end, he shook his head.
"I'm sorry, sir, I can't do that."
"Why?"
"Because default is not only the payment of liquidated damages, but also affects the credit between us and our customers." If we cancel the commission but accept yours, what will others think of us as an adventure group?
"Then, I will double the bounty to 40 gold coins."
Rodin's pupils twitched, but he shook his head anyway.
I'm sorry, sir, I really can't..." "
60 gold coins."
"There's something called credit, we can't..."
"80 gold coins."
"We can't..."
"The 5th time, 100 gold coins, this is my last offer."
Rodin's words came to an abrupt end.
The other members also swallowed their saliva and looked at Rodin.
Then he slowly got up from his seat, dragged out a chair, bent down, and said to Lin Qian:
"Welcome, dear customer."
She who was originally sitting motionless, suddenly glanced out the window.
Just when Lin Qian felt that something was wrong, as the sound of horses' hooves stopped, the carriage slowly stopped.
"Haha! How dare you walk through the forest like this without an escort?
