I opened an adventurer's guild in another world.

Inside the Light Moon Tavern, several people were tidying up.

After cleaning up, Lunn brought out several dishes and invited Anno to sit down and eat.

Apart from Anno and a few others, there was no one else in the tavern.

The old pastor and the guards had already gone back. Anno wanted to leave, but Lunn insisted on treating him to dinner.

Moreover, Lü Yan and Liu Rongrong also had something to say to him.

After finishing her meal, Lü Yan recounted her and Liu Rongrong's ordeal.

After Anno lured the goblins away, she and Liu Rongrong fled towards the town of Gruul.

However, the two of them took a long detour through the forest and wasted a lot of time before finally emerging from it.

Fortunately, the two of them were generally on the right track, otherwise they might have encountered goblins.

Upon arriving in the town of Gruel, they encountered the same predicament as Anno.

No money!

Lu Yan picked up the trench coat that Anuo had previously thrown away and put it on before she ran away.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have any clothes on at all except for her swimsuit!

The two men, disheveled and dirty, were begging for food in the town when they were encountered by Lenn.

Len felt sorry for the two women and let them work in the tavern so they could at least earn a living.

After listening, Anno recounted her own experience in detail.

When they heard that Anno had gone to the grasslands to hunt slimes with just a wooden stick, both girls opened their mouths in surprise.

"This is the first time I've ever heard of a professional!" It took Lü Yan a long time to process the information Anuo had shared.

"This world is teeming with monsters; if humanity didn't have professionals, it would have been wiped out long ago!"

Anno took a sip of water and said, "I want to become stronger, firstly to protect myself, and secondly to open an adventurers' guild!"

Start an adventurers' guild, become the guild leader, lead countless adventurers to fight against monsters, and save the world!

That sounds incredibly exciting!

Towards the end, Anno even stood up excitedly.

Liu Rongrong blinked her big eyes and asked curiously, "Adventurers' Guild? What's that?"

Anno sat down and explained, "They're just a group of professionals who take on commissions!"

Lenn asked from the side, "Isn't that a mercenary group?"

"That's one way to understand it!"

Anno is too lazy to explain the difference between the two now.

Lenn stroked his chin and said, "To start a mercenary group, you need to go to Valcalm and apply to the Viscount."

"And only professionals can apply!" Anno said with a wry smile. "I know that, which is why I kept killing slimes to make money before."

But slime pelts are too cheap, only one copper coin each. I've been working so hard these past two days, and I've only killed a few hundred!

"Hundreds! Good heavens!" Lenn exclaimed in shock upon hearing the number Anno announced. "Did you kill all the slimes on the grassland?"

Lenn did not venture deep into the grassland and did not know how many slimes were inside.

All he knew was that when he looked out from the road into the grassland, he could see vast expanses of slime!

"No, not at all! There are at least several thousand slimes on the grasslands, it's far from enough!"

Having finally acquired a decent weapon, Anno wanted to get rid of all the slimes.

But he clashed with Harry and received financial support from Lenn.

Anno didn't want to go out and take risks either. He didn't have any powerful summons yet, and if he got tricked by Harry, it would be a loss.

"That's still amazing!"

Lenn said with great enthusiasm, "Two years ago, when slimes were rampant, I saw them hurt people with my own eyes."

Those hit by the slime acid suffered festering wounds and screamed in agony.

"Without Reverend Henry, many would have died at the hands of the slimes!"

"Is it that serious?"

Lu Yan had just heard that there were thousands of slimes and that he had killed several hundred himself, so he thought slimes were weak.

But from Lenn's description, it is discovered that slimes also have the ability to kill!

Lenn smiled wryly and said, "What monster isn't powerful? We're just ordinary humans; we can't possibly fight monsters."

There used to be dozens of towns around Walkam.

Now there are only thirty-odd left!

Everything else was destroyed in the monster attack!

Liu Rongrong asked in disbelief, "How could this be? Aren't there guards in the other towns?"

"Yes! But the monsters are also very strong. Besides slimes, there are also brutal goblins. Although the guards are powerful, they can still be killed when they encounter some strong goblins!"

Upon hearing this, Anno thought of the goblins he had encountered before.

The goblin killed by Anno was a white soul, indicating that its level could not exceed 5.

Anno almost died at its hands.

At the same level, goblins are significantly stronger than slimes.

If Anno hasn't learned any skills, he can kill a slime of the same level by using a wooden stick with a little caution and avoiding the acid.

However, if you are facing goblins of the same level, you need to be prepared to die in battle!

This is also why Anno dared not use his numerical advantage in summoning slimes to fight against Harry and his group.

Slimes are no match for professionals!

Then, Lenn dropped a bombshell that left Anno and the other two wide-eyed.

"Goblins usually kill human males for food. As for females, they are kept in captivity, raped, and forced to give birth to baby goblins."

Goblins have a special constitution; if a human female is defiled by them, she will become pregnant.

Therefore, in towns attacked by goblins, any men captured are killed, while the women are plunged into endless suffering!

After hearing this, Anno immediately thought of the women who had been captured by the goblins!

Among the crowd who awoke in the church were eight men and seven women.

Anno witnessed the deaths of three men, and the whereabouts of the remaining men are unknown; the situation is dire.

Besides Lü Yan and Liu Rongrong, there are five women left.

One of the women was raped in front of everyone, and a burly young man came to her rescue.

Another woman was shot in the chest with an arrow when Anno climbed over the church wall, and was subsequently captured by goblins.

The remaining three women are also very likely to have been captured by the goblins.

Anno had always believed that goblins raped women simply because of lust, and that these women would be killed afterward.

He never imagined that these people might not be dead yet, and were still being tortured by goblins!

Thinking of this, Liu Rongrong turned pale with fright and trembled all over.

"brute!"

Lü Yan also realized this, and suddenly slammed her hand on the table, stood up, and was about to leave.

Anno quickly asked, "What are you doing?"

Without turning her head, Lü Yan said, "Of course we're going to find the guards and rescue them!"

Seeing Lü Yan's hurried departure, Lun En asked in confusion, "Did I say something wrong?"

Anno then explained to Len that the goblins in the forest had likely captured several women.

"This is terrible!"

Upon hearing this, Lenn's expression changed drastically, and he paced back and forth anxiously. "Everyone has always considered the goblins in the forest to be a potential threat."

A year ago, in order to prevent them from attacking the town, the previous mayor spent 2 gold coins to hire a mercenary group whose members were all above level 5, and also took five guards to the forest to try to wipe out the goblins.

But in the end, only one mercenary escaped!

According to that mercenary, there are goblins in the forest who are above level ten.

Unless it's a mercenary group with more than ten level professionals or a viscount sending troops to deal with it, no matter how many go in, they'll all die!

However, there are only three mercenary groups in Val'kam with more than ten level professionals, and they all charge at least 10 gold coins!

In our small town, we're already scrimping and saving to scrape together 2 gold coins, let alone 10!

The newly appointed mayor reported this to the viscount, but the viscount has not yet sent anyone to eliminate the threat.

For a long time, everyone has regarded that forest as a forbidden forest!

How could you have ventured into that forest?
