Ren wandered around the city for a while, planning to go to the tavern news merchant to get some information.
Unexpectedly, after walking around in a circle, I heard that the hunters all over the street were in a hurry, and a breaking news spread among them.
"Have you heard that a huge ancient city ruins suddenly appeared in the Tehesen Desert to the west! Most of those skeleton monsters last night came from that ruins!"
"Huh? Are they those skeleton monsters with gold weapons?"
"No! Early in the morning, someone followed the traces and found some ruins in the desert that was originally full of yellow sand. Taking a closer look, they found large areas of ancient architectural ruins. You Didn’t you see that the large hunting group in the city is already ready to go? They are just heading for the ruins. Come on, let’s set off quickly, maybe we can have some soup... "
"If the news can be passed back, wouldn't the ruins have been cleared out long ago?"
"Empty? How is that possible! I heard that the ruins are like an ancient country, with a terrifyingly large area. Moreover, a very complicated underground palace was discovered. I don't know how deep it is. It is impossible to explore it in a short time..."
"Ah? This... so many zombies came to attack the city last night, the ruins may be an empty city. Can we really drink soup now?"
"Hehe, of course. I heard that there are a lot of thorny bugs in the sand and the palace. Some of the people who went first made great benefits, but many people died. No, everyone just came back to sort out the equipment for the expedition and planned to go deep into those places. Let’s explore the underground palace. I heard that it was an ancient country from the ‘Munkel Civilization’ period, and maybe there was a temple!”
"What the hell, temple? Come on, let's go see it too!"
"..."
Renn initially thought that this news was just hearsay, but later he discovered that almost all the hunters in Mechanical City were talking about these things.
Moreover, various large-scale mercenary groups and people from the city lord's palace also organized large-scale wilderness hunting groups to set off, obviously heading for the ancient desert city.
... .
"Perhaps there really is a temple?"
Upon hearing the news, Renn thought of the gold piece he had bought at the street stall before and fell into deep thought.
Just now there was just a clue, and I didn’t know where the gold piece came from.
Now that the ruins have determined that a ruins of the ancient Monkel Kingdom appeared in the desert, it is very likely that the temple came from there!
Ryan has experienced two temples.
One is the one of the Coleman Atrium Tribe, which has harvested "divine power crystals", [Hercules Demon God] stone relief, two totem beads, and [Mologos' Hunting God Spear].
The second time was the time when I met the legendary skeleton, and gained "divine power crystals", [Ice Disaster] Petra's exclusive inherited skills, ice swords, and more than two thousand sets of [Vine Talisman Armor].
A "temple" that has never been excavated has a fatal attraction for anyone.
From the current point of view, since there are so many gold objects in the ruins, there is a high possibility that they have not been discovered!
When Ren thought of this, the eagerness to try became more and more intense in his eyes.
What's more, comprehending "potential" behind closed doors is always less effective. He plans to go out for a walk.
Exploring the ruins is a good choice!
... ..
According to hearsay, it is better to go directly to the news merchant to buy it.
Those guys have a bunch of intelligence informants who are traffickers and lackeys, and they always have the most complete first-hand information.
Now that he was determined to take a look, Renn spent tens of thousands of dollars to buy the latest information on the ruins.
Two hundred kilometers west of the "Black Wind Territory", there is a desert covering tens of thousands of square kilometers. There were very few resources that could be harvested there, and few hunters went there to explore before.
However, after the wave of corpses last night, the desert suddenly collapsed by hundreds of meters, and then exposed ruins.
The ancient country of Munkel, which had been sealed in dust for countless years, finally saw the light of day again.
"Information says that there are almost no large-scale living corpses. The biggest threat is a large carapace sandworm... It can defend against ordinary muskets. Its mouthparts are highly poisonous, and it is extremely lethal to low-level extraordinary beings... "
Ren looked at the information in his hand and pondered it.
There is no large-scale corpse tide, which is good news. And those bugs, whether they are poisonous or carapaceous, have solutions for him now, and the problem is not big.
As for the threats deep in the ruins... no one knows the situation.
But now, there is another problem, he is only one person!
A person exploring such a large ruins without anyone to look after him may encounter many other troubles, such as mechanisms that require multiple people to operate, the skills of thieves to open locks, the dispersal of mages, and the pathfinding of shield battles.
Moreover, it is not the sandworms that need to be guarded the most, but those colleagues or Phantom Thieves with evil intentions! So traveling alone is not a good option.
Thinking of this, Ren planned to go to the Hunter Hall to form a temporary team.
If the doctor profession participates in wilderness hunting, it is not difficult to form a team no matter where you are.
Moreover, because the sandworm is highly toxic, doctors immediately became a sought-after "resource". Many teams deployed multiple doctors in case of emergency.
... .
Just leave.
Not all, so Ren came to the Liar Hunter Hall in the city.
This is a bit like the "talent market" in the previous life. In addition to posting and handing over tasks, there are also various recruitment advertisements for recruiting teammates.
Hunting is a very dangerous thing, and attrition is normal. Therefore, it is often seen that some hunting teams with standard configuration only have half of the professionals left after they go out and come back. Then they need to recruit new team members for the next wilderness hunt.
When Ren came, the place was crowded, more people than usual.
Because he was wearing a white coat, as soon as he entered the door, he heard someone greeting him: "Hey brother, are you a doctor? What level of medical certification do you have? We happen to be short of a doctor in the 'Straw Hats'. We will find one and leave."
He didn't say where he was going, but he seemed to understand that the destination was a desert ruin.
Renn glanced at the man, a first-order light-armored swordsman with poor equipment and bad looks.
He had no intention of going out hunting with a team that might be wiped out by a random monster. He declined politely: "Sorry, I'm just a doctor's apprentice."
"Cut~"
After hearing Ren say that he was a doctor's apprentice, the man immediately lost interest and turned around to find someone else.
Then on the way in, we met several more teams that were also recruiting extraordinary people from the medical department.
Ren was not in a hurry to join, but squeezed into the crowd to look at the magic light screen that posted the recruitment advertisement.
A team that can spend money to put recruitment information on the bounty light screen is an ideal and powerful team.
"3301: The 'Black Bear Hunting Group' recruits five spellcasters, limited to second-level mages; three extraordinary ones in the medical department, who have obtained relevant certifications are given priority... Reward: Eight thousand miles + trophies distributed according to contribution... "
"3557: The 'Iron Boots Hunting Group' recruits twenty spellcasters, limited to formal mages; ten extraordinary ones in the medical department, who have obtained relevant certifications are given priority... Reward: Seven thousand miles of sky + equal distribution of spoils based on head distribution system. ..”
"3773: The 'Firebird Hunting Group' recruits three heavy armor shield warriors with toughness talents, [advanced ones] with mid-term cultivation level or above; some extraordinary medical skills, no limitation on cultivation level, junior medal... Reward: Rank person Head bonus + loot distributed according to contribution... ”
"..."
Renn looked at the information scrolling above and it was clear at a glance.
Those who can be hung on the light screen are mostly large hunting groups whose names can be called out.
His goal was to find a medium-sized hunting group of thirty to fifty people, not to mention treasure hunting, but at least capable of protecting themselves.
Then, his attention was attracted by a "bold message".
"Special Announcement: 'Sequoia Chamber of Commerce' recruits professional guards for hunters of all professions, with level 2 and above cultivation; five extraordinary people in the medical department, requiring intermediate professional assessment medals; Remuneration: 15,000 lisoday + 100% level premium +Contribution rewards+Bonuses+Loot distribution..."
Every word in this recruitment message reminds people of "rich and wealthy".
This recruitment is very harsh, but the reward is almost double or even more than other recruitment information.
Renn was naturally attracted by the recruitment information.
I originally wanted to form a team based on my identity as a doctor, but now it seems unrealistic.
The "certificate" just stuck them at the threshold.
He is currently taking the exam for the "Doctor's Apprentice" medal. With this thing, except for the "cannon fodder team" that cannot be carried, most capable hunting teams will not want it.
But he can also be a second-level fighter!
This recruitment information is just right.
"Sequoia Chamber of Commerce? Isn't this a branch of the Chamber of Commerce under Canosha?"
Renn looked at the name with some impression. She remembered that before she came, Canosha told her that if she encountered any trouble, she could still contact someone from this chamber of commerce
Apparently, Ren was not the only one who was interested in this information.
When this "bold message" flashed on the screen, the hunters who looked up at the screen started talking.
"Tsk tsk... The minimum requirement is a second-level transcendent. This condition is really harsh."
"We are the Sequoia Chamber of Commerce. We are not short of money, so we must recruit elites. However, the reward is really not worth mentioning. If I were not the first level, I would even want to go."
"Tsk tsk, although the reward is high, I'm afraid it's hard to recruit people. Second-level transcendental beings are the core of large hunting groups, and not all captains are elites. The small new group is almost at the level of group leader, so it's possible to recruit them ? What's more, the 'Sequoia Chamber of Commerce' is not an officially recognized chamber of commerce in the Shining Nation. The taxes are frighteningly high. The remuneration looks high, but when you get it, it's not much higher. Unless you don't go through official certification channels and recruit privately... "
"Forget it, we don't meet the conditions, so we're just having fun."
"..."
After listening to it, Ren also understood why the reward for this recruitment information was so high, and it turned out to be taxed.
Now that Glory City has been established as a nation and an alliance has been concluded with Omar, the "Sunflower Chamber of Commerce" has become the only official cooperative chamber of commerce. Other chambers of commerce such as the "Sequoia Chamber of Commerce" are private chambers of commerce that are not officially recognized, and the corresponding taxes are much higher.
For this kind of recruitment, if you use the hunting union platform, you must register to collect taxes.
Renn didn't think it mattered, because he didn't care about the remuneration, let alone taxes.
Anyway, I have to find a hunting group to travel, so why not find someone I know.
The recruitment news from the "Sequoia Chamber of Commerce" was exactly what he wanted.
Without looking any further, Renn went directly to the union application window and registered his ID badge. Then I got a recruitment notice to meet at the "Big Beard Tavern" at 6 o'clock tomorrow morning.
... ..
Renn came out this time and prepared enough emergency supplies.
However, in order to cope with the desert environment, he also specially prepared a lot of drinking water. There is no need to think about buying antidote potions. The pharmacy store has sold out, and the remaining ones are of poor quality and very expensive.
Since he was not leaving until tomorrow morning anyway, he simply went to buy some potion materials, rented a laboratory and started to prepare the antidote potion himself.
After practicing in dreams for so long, his potion level has now reached the level of an intermediate or even advanced pharmacist.
Refining some junior and intermediate antidote medicine machines has a very high success rate.
After a sleepless night, I probably refined hundreds of antidote potions.
I pretended to wear a few of them on my body, and then put the others in storage rings.
Early in the morning, I went out at 5:50.
Three minutes later, he arrived at the "Big Beard Tavern", where many people were already sitting.
