Chapter 64 Adventurers of Blackrock City
the next day.
Lin Er and Flora got up very early, and after getting everything ready, they headed to the guild together.
They arrived at the guild hall and quickly met up with Keller and Talia. After a brief discussion, they decided to register a small team first.
Because their teacher, Maurice, had given them instructions beforehand, Keller and Talia did not act on their own and respected Lin's opinion very much.
This made Lin Er feel as if he were their senior brother, which was a bit strange.
"I'll register then."
Lin Er said something and went to the counter where Ellie was in charge to inquire about registering an adventurer team.
Ellie replied, "Lord Lin'er, registering an adventure team requires a Silver rank, which you have already met. In addition, you need to register your members, and the guild will conduct an evaluation."
After Lin Er briefly learned about the process, Ellie provided the forms needed for registration.
He turned and went back to the rest area, handing out forms to the three people, on which they had to fill in their strength and rank.
Flora naturally filled in Forest Ranger, at the peak of Tier 1 strength. Keller and Talia also filled in Mage, both at the peak of Tier 1.
Seeing that the three of them had finished filling out the forms quickly, Lin Er picked up his quill pen and boldly wrote the words "Mage" in the occupation field.
As for the rank...
Lin Er also filled in the first-level peak.
At this moment, Talia and Keller couldn't help but glance at the form in his hand, and their faces were filled with strange expressions after reading it.
Talia asked, "Senior Brother Lin'er... I mean, Mr. Lin'er, are you really at the peak of the first tier?"
Lin Er replied, "That's right, I am at the peak of the first rank."
His answer was very firm, and his expression showed no sign of apprehension.
When you're out in the world, your identity and background are determined by yourself.
Lin Er had previously asked Ellie to help him get a silver badge, but now he's claiming to be a second-tier player, which is a bit of a slap in the face.
His strength is beyond the guild's comprehension, so let's not cause any unnecessary trouble.
Talia and Keller exchanged a glance, both feeling a sense of doubt.
Talia couldn't help but mutter, "Could it be that Senior Brother Lin'er's affinity level has reached A-level or higher? Otherwise, how could he have received the Silver Badge ahead of time?"
They were unaware that Lin Er had obtained the badge with the help of the Raven family, a fact concealed by Deacon Roslin.
After receiving the news from Morris, and considering that Lin Er had already signed the guild's contract, she helped remove the Raven family's label to avoid unnecessary trouble in the future.
After much thought, this was the only conclusion Talia could reach.
"I didn't expect Senior Brother Lin'er's elemental affinity to be so high."
With a high affinity for elements and unparalleled mastery of magic, the mere thought of it is terrifying.
No wonder Professor Maurice was so anxious and eager to take his senior brother as his apprentice.
Talia was also very tempted. If such a strong senior brother joined the Mage Tower, she and Keller could rely on him and live a life of nominal membership.
She then looked at Keller, who also reacted with the same surprise, clearly having made the same connection.
Having spent so much time together, the two knew each other very well, and after exchanging glances, they quickly made a decision.
"We must make sure the teacher is comfortable with the senior student and invite him in!"
Suddenly, Lin Er felt that Keller and Talia were looking at him strangely, but he couldn't quite put his finger on it.
Seeing that everyone had filled out the forms, he asked again:
"What are your thoughts on the name?"
Keller and Talia both shook their heads, so he could only look at Flora.
Flora replied, "I think it would be better to call it the Eternal Oath, wishing our friendship to be strong and unbreakable."
Lin Er thought about it for a while but couldn't think of a better name. He then asked the couple, and after seeing that they had no objections, he decided on this name.
He then took the form and led it to the window where Ellie was in charge.
"Miss Ellie, it's all filled out."
Ellie carefully reviewed the registration form, and after confirming there were no errors, she smiled and said:
"Lord Lin'er, your 'Eternal Oath' team is now officially established. Would you like to accept a silver-level bounty?"
"That's right, let me see it first."
"Lord Lin'er, this time the guild's silver bounty is a little different."
"Oh, how is it different?"
"The guild will not issue specific bounties at the moment. Once you and your team arrive at the stronghold near the Misty Forest, the guild members present will distribute them on a temporary basis according to the needs."
"This team will have to compete with other squads, right?"
Ellie nodded and replied:
"Since you signed a long-term contract, as long as you confirm your participation, the entire team will receive a service fee after registration. The bounty will be calculated separately, and these will depend on the situation at the outpost."
"Okay, where should I go now?"
"Please wait a moment. In another hour, the guild will send someone to the stronghold. You can just go with them."
After learning all this, Lin Er stepped back from the window.
As soon as he arrived at the rest area, Talia and the others surrounded him, asking about the bounty.
Lin Er then told them everything he had just learned.
Keller and Talia both had long-term contracts with the guild, so they were familiar with the service fees. Flora, however, was surprised; she hadn't expected to benefit from the service as well.
Lin Er muttered to himself, "It seems that signing a long-term contract does have some hidden benefits."
The four waited in the rest area for a while, and an hour passed.
Several small teams arrived during this time, wearing silver badges and possessing genuine Tier 2 strength, which should not be underestimated.
In addition, quite a few bronze-level adventurers joined in; they weren't that strong, but there were a lot of them.
Lin Er roughly counted, and there were probably over a hundred people.
"This time, the guild is really making a big move."
Lin Er sighed and then led the three of them to follow the crowd.
Upon arriving at the main street outside the guild, one could see a bustling crowd of adventurers, some of whom were orcs and dwarves.
At that moment, three carriages came rushing over and stopped in front of the guild.
Three teams of adventurers emerged from the crowd, looking very capable and wearing silver badges.
Talia whispered, "Aren't these the people from the city lord's mansion? They could walk, but they insist on being picked up by carriage."
Keller: "Maybe they're trying to conserve their energy."
Lin Er and his companions did not have a carriage and could only follow the flow of people.
An hour passed.
The four of them finally arrived at a village, about ten kilometers away from the Misty Forest.
The village consists of only a few dozen simple houses with a sparse population. It is surrounded by a low earthen wall with two watchtowers on top.
The guild's base was located in the village, and with the influx of many adventurers, it resembled a temporary military camp.
There are two locations for accepting bounties: one is silver-level and the other is bronze-level. The bronze-level location is more lively.
Lin Er saw Ellie at the Bronze Bounty Reception Area, so he went over to say hello and see if he could trigger a quest, but he didn't.
He had no choice but to lead his team to the silver-level bounty posting location.
Behind the temporary counter sat a middle-aged woman named Phoebe. She briefly inquired about the name of Lin Er's team before looking away.
After waiting for a while, two more teams came in, namely the Rust Blade Brotherhood and the Firewood Brigade.
After Phoebe saw that there were three teams, she finally spoke:
"There's a bounty: kill 6 early-stage Tier 2 Forest Dire Wolves. Specific locations are provided. The bounty is 120 Fang coins. Anyone want to take it?"
[You heard about a quest to kill a wolf demon at the sect's temporary external affairs office. Accept and complete this quest. Reward: 2 bottles of Qi Cultivation Pills.]
Just as Lin Er was about to speak, a man who was over two meters tall, like a small giant, stood up and his voice was loud and thunderous.
"The Rusty Blade Brotherhood will accept this bounty."
Phoebe nodded: "Okay, the bounty is yours."
Talia stood up as well, indignantly saying, "No, our captain hasn't even given the order yet, and you've already made a decision?"
Phoebe glanced at her and said indifferently, "There are only four of you at the peak of the first tier. You'd better not go and throw your lives away."
