Traveling through the game world
Chapter 75 The Dark Elf Asks You to Investigate His Ancestral Graves
As Lian Yang and his group were heading towards Krent's residence, they saw Sharan, dressed in a striking blue outfit, slowly approaching from afar.
Seeing Lian Yang and his group chatting and laughing as they approached from the direction of the rafting cave, Sharan said with an air of knowing, "Seeing you all chatting and laughing, I knew you must have solved the rafting cave problem."
Nicholas smiled faintly and said, "It's not a solution. Now that I've traveled from the past to the present, I don't want to dream of becoming an emperor anymore. I plan to go on an adventure with Lian Yang and the others."
This was undoubtedly a very formal declaration—a declaration that the Spider Kingdom would not be revived. Sharan secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said happily, "Lord Nicholas is so noble; I truly admire him. Although I would very much like to take you to see the Queen to seek rewards, the current situation in Dark City is complex, and I am powerless to do so."
Dark City is currently facing both internal and external troubles. Not only is the power struggle between Elder Shaplen and Dark Elf Queen Maya turbulent, but the current strongest nation on the continent, the Delos Empire, is also eyeing Dark City as a lucrative prize.
If Nicholas were to raise the banner of the Spider Kingdom's revival again, the Dark Elf Kingdom would be in serious trouble. Fortunately, Nicholas had no such intention.
After saying goodbye to Sharan, Lian Yang and the others decided not to go to Krent's place. In any case, if Sharan knew, it meant that the entire Dark City leadership knew that the problem of the drifting cave had been solved.
Having not yet obtained a new pass, Lian Yang was too lazy to go to the drifting cave to level up. He spent his days practicing swordsmanship at home and browsing the market for bargains during the day, enjoying a rare period of leisure.
However, the arrival of an uninvited guest undoubtedly broke Lianyang's rare moment of peace.
The newcomer carried a massive sword on his back. Lian Yang, with his sharp eyes, immediately recognized it—it was an epic weapon! A level 55 epic greatsword, Conqueror's Wings.
Judging from his appearance, he was a middle-aged man dressed in a gray-white samurai outfit, and his whole body was filled with dark spacetime power. Lian Yang immediately knew who the person was.
There are many organizations on the continent of Arad. On a larger scale, there is the Delos Empire and the Dark Elf Kingdom. On a smaller scale, there is the Holy Church where the Paladins reside, the GBL Church on the Sky Tower, or the Magic Guild where Sharan belongs. These are all official organizations.
Where there are official organizations, there are also private organizations. Adventurers' guilds are simply groups of independent adventurers who organize themselves freely. Unlike revolutionary armies, these are legitimate civilian organizations.
As for the extremely rare Dark Knight class, and the one who carries a level 55 epic greatsword, there is only one in the Arad continent: Argens, the guild leader of the pure Ghost Knight guild, the Berserker Guild.
Although the War Frenzy Guild had some trade dealings with Remy's Kiss, Lian Yang really didn't expect that Argens would come to him for something.
He asked politely, "President Argens, it is truly an honor to have you grace my humble abode with your presence amidst your busy schedule!" It didn't matter if he couldn't understand; they weren't enemies for the time being, so he simply offered the polite words.
With everyone carrying the sedan chair, even the polite Argens wasn't arrogant. He smiled and said, "We're all adventurers, so I won't stand on ceremony with you. I've taken on a mysterious job; I need to explore the Hero's Tomb on the drifting cave."
Upon hearing this, Lian Yang was so shocked he almost jumped up, exclaiming in astonishment, "What?! Who's crazy? That place can be explored too?!"
Lian Yang is no longer a newbie who just transmigrated. He has been living on the Arad Continent for about two years now, and the people here still attach great importance to their ancestral graves.
The idea that exploring the Hero's Tomb is so easy in the game is utter nonsense in Lian Yang's eyes. Forget about the other world; try digging up someone's ancestral grave or damaging their ancestors' remains in real life, and see what happens. They'd fight you to the death!
The same applies to the Dark Elves. The Heroes' Tomb, located in the Drifting Cave, is the burial ground of the Dark Elves' great hero ancestors. Unless it is a sacrificial festival, even the Dark Elf Queen cannot enter there casually.
So when I heard that someone was trying to explore Hero's Tomb Lianyang through Argens' War Maniac Guild, my first thought was that the person must be crazy.
Knowing Lian Yang's surprise, Argens' first thought upon hearing the offer was also to resolutely refuse. The War Frenzy Guild was, after all, a legitimate guild, not some bandit group. Let alone the tomb of the Dark Elf ancestors, Argens wouldn't want to offend even an ordinary person.
After Lian Yang calmed down, Argens continued, "At first I was also very surprised, but they issued me a special pass from the Dark Elf authorities, allowing me to explore the Hero's Tomb."
"Hmm?" Upon hearing that there was an officially issued pass, Lian Yang quickly calmed down. If it was officially issued, it meant that there was something else going on.
Furthermore, the mission to send the War Frenzy Guild to explore the Hero's Tomb was undertaken by either the Dark Elf Queen Maya or the Grand Elder Shaplen. Only these two individuals possessed the authority to issue such passes.
After thinking for a moment, Lian Yang asked, "But since there are already official documents, why did you still come to find me?"
The War Maniac Guild is the top of the four major adventurer guilds, with many powerful members. Lian Yang, whose level is still very low, can only be described as having mediocre strength.
Argens said helplessly, "But the client who commissioned this mission requires that the maximum level to enter is no more than 40. I think there shouldn't be any adventurer below level 40 on the Arad Continent who is stronger than you, right? Especially since I remember that your entire team's level is no more than 40."
Speaking of which, Lian Yang is quite well-known in the Arad Continent, and people have a certain understanding of his strength. So when Argens heard that the mission was restricted to adventurers below level 40, he immediately thought of finding Lian Yang.
After careful consideration, Lian Yang was somewhat tempted. He had also considered exploring the Heroes' Tomb, where the heroes were powerful adventurers in life, and the loot dropped there would surely be of high quality. Moreover, since the opponents were adventurers, the killing system would also be effective, which undoubtedly made Lian Yang even more interested.
After careful consideration, Lian Yang said, "Regarding the mission rewards, I'll give you 7% of the money and you 3% of the rewards. As for the items, we'll decide through an auction. The equipment our team obtains during our adventure in the Hero's Tomb will be for our own use, and I'll give you 7% of the money and you 3% of the rewards. If there are no problems, then it's decided."
Argens didn't hesitate for long, handing the pass and mission contract to Lian Yang and saying simply, "Happy to cooperate!"
Argens, of course, had no reason to hesitate. He was now more of a middleman, and getting 30% of the profits was already a huge gain.
Just after Argens left, Krent arrived at Lian Yang's house and said with certainty, "Argens must have just been here."
"Hmm, what a coincidence, you just arrived after he left!" Lian Yang said, looking at Krent with a half-smile.
Feeling somewhat embarrassed by Lian Yang's gaze, Krent said, "I assigned Argens the task through some connections, but it's mainly for you, because I know you two have some mutual benefit."
Nodding, Lian Yang said, "Why? It seems more convenient to send it directly to me. I'm just losing 30% of my gold coins for nothing!"
"You still care about a few gold coins?" Rolling his eyes, Krent said, "Actually, the events in the Spider Kingdom have put the entire Dark Elf Kingdom on high alert. The Grand Elder was planning to cover it up, which wouldn't have been a problem, but it seems there's something unusual at the Hero's Tomb as well." He then looked at Lian Yang with slight unease.
Lian Yang nodded, signaling Krent to continue.
After organizing his thoughts, Krent continued, "However, these things are not suitable for the general public to know, as it would cause great panic. Furthermore, regarding the Black Nightmare you mentioned, the higher-ups suspect that the anomalies at Hero's Tomb are related to the Black Nightmare. Therefore, they can only secretly contact the Adventurers' Guild. In fact, there should be a large number of people exploring Hero's Tomb this time."
Nodding, Lian Yang chuckled and said, "It's just that there's something wrong with your ancestral graves, but you can't make this public, right?"
“If that’s what you’re saying,” Krent thought for a moment, then nodded solemnly, “it doesn’t seem wrong!”
"All set!" Lian Yang chuckled. "Everyone, get ready, we've got a new business opportunity!"
Krent needs Lian Yang to go on an adventure, but Lian Yang is also bored out of his mind. He still doesn't know how to leave the DNF world!
