Bailey Manor is a gorgeous building complex that integrates villas and some household and practical buildings. The place where Weizard arrived is the east side entrance of this luxurious manor.
"Tsk tusk! This is the real local tyrant's residence..."
The gate court supported by the large white colonnades, the straight avenues, the lawns with flower beds and fountains, the hedges covered with climbing plants, and the various statues dotted with...
"Hey! It's another dumpling from the country!"
Just when Weizard was deeply attracted by the beauty displayed in front of him, a sneer of disdain came from the crowd gathered in front of him.
"Um?"
Weizard swept away coldly, only to see a young man in a hollow ornate armor pointing at him, staring at him with mocking but arrogant eyes.
"The task is still important..."
Weizard took a deep breath, not wanting to be extravagant, ignoring the young man's words.
"Excuse me⦠"
Weizard walked to a simple wooden table and said to a middle-aged man with the appearance of a clerk sitting behind him: "Here is the bounty mission issued by the Lord Bailey?"
"Name? Professional expertise?"
Taking a look at Weizard, the middle-aged man picked up the quill in his hand and stained it with ink.
"Weized, an adventurer from the North, is good at one-handed swords."
Accompanied by the rustle of writing on the parchment, the middle-aged man said without looking up: "Okay, the registration is complete! Go to the side and wait for a while..."
[Trigger adventure mission: the missing wizard. γ
[Task difficulty: D++ level]
[Quest content: Elf noble Klitsch Berry is recruiting adventurers to find his second son, Ruhr, a low-level mage who has just been certified by the Mage Guild. γ
[Task description:... Everything is not as simple as you see. γ
"Huh! I got the task..."
While thinking, Weizard stood beside the side door of Bailey Manor according to the instructions of the clerk, keeping a certain distance from the group of adventurers who had arrived before.
With the passage of time, more and more adventurers came to take over the task. Gradually, there were bursts of noisy sounds near the side door of the manor.
"quiet!"
Just when the kind of adventurers were waiting impatiently, a team of heavily armed guards walked out of the manor.
With silver armor, sharp spears, and hideous horn helmets, Weizard could feel a hint of danger from the body of this team of guards.
Not only him, but some other adventurers also smelled this faint sense of crisis. For a while, the noisy crowd was surprisingly quiet.
"This is Master Bailey's manor. Please be polite, everyone!"
The head of the guard captain said in his hoarse voice: "Time is almost up, stop recruiting!"
After giving an order to the clerk, the captain of the guard, who was nearly two meters tall, once again turned his attention to a kind of adventurer.
"I emphasize it again... Keep quiet!"
Weizard, who was swept by the gaze of the captain of the guard, gave birth to a feeling of being stared at by a beast.
"If there is no doubt, follow me to see Master Bailey... There are some details about the mission, and the adults will explain it to you personally!"
Having said that, the captain of the guard led a group of adventurers and walked towards a white house in the manor.
"These guys... have all seen blood!"
"Isn't it! Because it's the captain of the guard, I can smell the blood radiating from him so far away..."
"It seems that the bounty for this mission is not so easy to take..."
"..."
Hearing the whispers among the adventurers, Weizard walked in the middle of the team without a word.
Soon, under the leadership of the guards, a group of people came to the white building.
The lobby of the white building is very spacious, but the light is a bit dim. However, rows of burning torches erected on the walls on both sides of the lobby solve this problem well.
In the front of the hall, there is a high-backed chair. A middle-aged man with dark blond hair and a gentle smile on his face sits upright.
"He should be Klitsch Berry, the elf aristocrat who issued this bounty mission, right?"
Standing among the adventurers, Weizard looked up and down the elven aristocrat, and noticed that his ears were long and sharp, and his pupils were also beautiful violet.
"Everyone!"
The elven aristocrat patted his hands gracefully, attracting the attention of the adventurers.
"It's nice to meet everyone!"
Klitsch Berry nodded politely, and he said, "You should all know that, my son Ruhr Berry lost track in an adventure..."
"For this reason, my wife washes her face with tears every day!"
"Although Ruhr is only my second son, my love for him has not diminished in any way... Maybe it is this kind of excessive indulgence that led to such a thing!"
Speaking of this, the elven nobleman stood up from the high-back chair, spread his hands and said loudly: "All of you present are experienced adventurers. I hope I can get good news from you! "
"For this, I have prepared a valuable bounty! At the same time, the adventurer or the adventure team who completes the task will also win the friendship of the Bailey family..."
After hearing the promise of the elves and nobles, the adventurers were gearing up, as if the reward for the task was at hand.
"My lord! Don't worry!"
Weizard looked around, and saw the young man who had laughed at him loudly and said: "Since our Bauhinia Mercenary Corps has accepted this mission, we will definitely bring Master Ruhr back to you safely! "
"I look forward to it!"
The elven nobleman smiled and replied: "However, before the mission begins, I feel it is necessary to talk to you about the details of the mission..."
After a pause, the elven aristocrat continued: "... My son Ruhr disappeared more than ten days ago while exploring the lost city of the earth."
"What? Lost City of Earth Vein?"
"Gosh! It's that ghost place!!!"
"..."
After hearing the words of the elves and nobles, the adventurers gave out bursts of exclamation. Weizard could see that some adventurers showed a very obvious look of fear.
"The Lost City of Earth Vein? What kind of place is this?"
When Weizard was thinking about it secretly, the elven nobleman said loudly, "Everyone!"
"Everyone knows the danger of the Lost City of Earth Vein!"
"For this reason, I will send the Berry family's direct guard to carry out this mission with you!"
"Of course, if someone plans to quit, I won't stop..."
Seeing the kind expression of the elf nobleman, Weizard could hear a hint of coldness.
Sure enough, after the elven nobles said these words, some turbulent adventurers calmed down again, and none of them withdrew from this mission.
"Very good! Since everyone has no objections, let's start the task in a while..."
After speaking, the elven aristocrat Klitsch Berry got up and left the hall.
"... How can I have the feeling of'on a thief ship'?"
At this moment, Weizard noticed something wrong.
