Chapter 16 Adventurer Job Certification
Day two.
After a day of rest, as dusk quietly fell, the town was bustling with activity, filled with the aroma of wine and food. Only then did Lin Qi truly feel at home in this world.
I was lying down thinking when suddenly there was a loud bang. I looked up and saw that the door had been kicked open, and Fiona was standing outside.
She was dressed in a pure white long dress, paired with fiery red long hair, and looked extremely beautiful.
"Come on, let's eat something!"
The girl's body has clearly recovered.
I found a small tavern on the street next to the Adventurers' Guild. The warm yellow lights flickered, the ale smelled delicious, and the atmosphere was gentle and inviting.
The two sat facing each other, ordered simple hot food and two glasses of ale, and the atmosphere was peaceful and relaxed.
"I have been away for too long, and I must set off tomorrow to return to the main temple of the Temple of Justice to report for duty."
The main temple of the Temple of Justice is located in Golden Oak, the capital of the principality.
Monster investigation team members, poor Richard's hometown.
"Ah~"
Fiona took a big gulp of ale and groaned comfortably.
"What are your plans for the future?"
Lin Qi shook his head.
Fiona simply smiled and didn't say anything more.
Dinner is over.
Fiona untied the heavy leather bag from her waist and gently pushed it in front of Lynch, her eyes sincere and earnest.
"I've withdrawn some money from the temple, a few gold coins. Take this for emergencies."
"It's not a free gift, I'll remember that."
Lin Qi did not refuse out of politeness. He was penniless and had no relatives or friends at the moment, so he accepted the money without hesitation.
Thank you.
Debt is no burden; if you already owe 100,000, owing a few more won't hurt.
Stepping out of the tavern, a cool evening breeze blew along the street, and the town's night was gradually deepening.
Fiona turned to look at Lynch, her gaze solemn and serious.
"If you encounter any difficulties in the future, as long as you do not violate the principles of fairness, you can seek me out at any branch of the Temple of Fairness on the continent, and I will do my best to help you."
Lin Qi slowly nodded in agreement.
"Of course, remember to pay back the money you owe."
"Oh right, there's also the identification document I prepared for you in the bag."
"I'm leaving now."
The girl gave him one last deep look, then stood up and walked away. Dressed in a white dress, she exuded the same proud and confident aura she had when they first met, strolling through the underground labyrinth. She gradually blended into the crowd of people in the streets and alleys, her figure slowly disappearing into the distance.
I watched Fiona's figure disappear around the street corner.
The malty aroma of the beer still lingered in my throat, the moonlight shone on my face, and even the hairs on the back of my neck felt wonderfully blushing.
He slumped back in his chair, tilting his head back, his eyes narrowed to slits, and even his pores seemed to be exhaling foul air.
So cool.
Finally, I don't have to smell goblin poop mixed with rotting flesh every day anymore.
Finally, I don't have to sleep on the hard, rocky ground anymore.
Finally, I don't have to live in fear that one day I'll be smashed into mincemeat by Gudu's hammer.
Living a peaceful and uneventful life in this small town, just waiting to die, seems pretty good.
The more he thought about it, the happier he became, his smile almost reaching his ears.
I was just thinking about it.
The smile gradually froze on his face.
One hundred thousand gold coins.
Lin Qi clutched his chest, feeling as if the ale he had just drunk had instantly turned into bitter water.
......
After Fiona left, she could no longer stay at the Temple of Justice for free.
Lynch walked along the road, holding the three gold coins Fiona had given him, preparing to find a house to stay in.
After taking a walk around, Lin Qi looked serious.
We don't have enough money.
Recently, it seems that monsters have been rampant in the Misty Forest, so a large number of adventurers have moved in. As the principality town closest to the forest, Silverleaf is now overcrowded.
Even the worst dormitory room costs fifty copper coins a night.
You should know that fifty copper coins could buy you a week's worth of normal food and drink in the countryside.
These are the prices that Lynch has researched.
With three gold coins, one was needed for emergencies, one for registering as an adventurer, and the rest was barely enough for lodging and food.
trouble.
I should take advantage of my strength and register with the Adventurers' Guild first!
Lynch was invigorated.
Am I finally about to embark on the adventure of my dreams?
It was still early, and Lin Qi thought that the Adventurers' Guild might not be open yet.
However, when he reached the center of town...
stunned.
At the guild entrance, there was a long queue, and 80% of the people were agile classes wearing leather armor, such as rogues, archers, and scouts.
This is?
Lin Qi slowly approached and walked up to a guy who had just finished yawning and looked exhausted.
"Excuse me, sir, could you tell me what you're doing here?"
The guy rolled his eyes.
"You've just arrived in Ginye, haven't you?"
Lynch nodded.
"I don't know which damn guild member came up with this idea: limited-time missions. The first ten missions completed each day will earn you double adventure points."
You know how hard it is to earn points.
"Exchange, promotion, task settlement cards—you need them everywhere. Who wouldn't want to grab them? If you're late, there won't be any good ones left."
"But," Lynch glanced at the terrifyingly long line, "there are more than ten people here."
"Oh, tasks can be shared. You look so young, but your brain isn't very sharp."
"Could he be a shield warrior?"
"Hey, what do you mean? What happened to the Shield Warrior?"
Before Lin Qi could speak, the burly man behind him became somewhat dissatisfied.
Lin Qi wisely left the scene and obediently joined the end of the line.
......
They finally got in line. The hall was noisy and chaotic, filled with adventurers vying for quests.
Lin Qi walked against the flow of people.
His black hair lay softly against his forehead, his eyebrows and eyes were deep, his nose was high and straight, his lips were clearly defined, and his skin was a cool white that remained translucent even though it had never seen strong light. Although he was dressed in ordinary clothes, he could not hide his innate temperament at all. Even the noise and clamor around him seemed to be isolated by his invisible aura.
The evil god who first appeared on the ground did not realize how tempting the divine body was to mortals.
Many of the adventurers passing by were young men and women, who would unconsciously glance at him a couple of times as they passed by. Some were curious, some were amazed, and some bold female adventurers would whistle and try to strike up a conversation.
Lynch came to a window,
"Hello, registering as an adventurer."
Behind the window, Lina, with her short blonde hair, was organizing documents. When she heard Lin Qi's voice, she subconsciously looked up. When her gaze fell on his face, her breath hitched slightly, and her pen paused.
Having worked as a receptionist at the Adventurers' Guild for so long, she had seen countless adventurers, but never one so stunning.
Words cannot describe it; it left her slightly dazed.
Lina quickly regained her composure, suppressing the strange feeling in her heart, and put on a standard, polite smile, only this time it was gentler than usual, and even her tone was lighter: "Register?"
Please show your proof of employment.
Professional certification?
Lin Qi was taken aback. What was that?
Na saw his reaction, and the surprise in her eyes gradually faded, replaced by a hint of understanding.
She scrutinized Lin Qi closely. The boy had clean features and clear eyes. He looked quite young and didn't have the fierceness of an adventurer. Instead, he seemed like a pampered young master.
I guess it was a spur-of-the-moment decision to experience life and that's why they ran away.
"We can also do professional certification here."
Lin Qi's eyes lit up.
"I want to get professional certification."
"Thank you for your patronage, two gold coins."
Lina's teeth were shiny, like a greedy dragon.
hiss.
I gritted my teeth and paid.
Obviously, the professional certification for someone like Lin Qi, who doesn't even enter a rank, is very simple: a simple test of physical fitness, a simple test of magical potential, and a simple test of combat skills.
He frowned as he watched Lin Qi struggle to even hold the wooden sword.
Lina asked curiously, "Your stamina is excellent, and your agility is outstanding, but your strength..."
She is a certified rank-up adventurer by the Adventurers' Guild. As for why a rank-up adventurer would work as a receptionist, it's naturally because she has a permanent position, a stable salary, doesn't need to go out and fight for her life, and has good benefits after retirement.
As a graduate of a proper vocational college, Lina swore she had never encountered such a bizarre situation before.
She even suspected that the black-haired boy in front of her had muscle atrophy.
