[Guild Extermination Quest: A large number of slimes have appeared on the grasslands outside Gruul Town. The Adventurers' Guild is now tasked with exterminating them.]

[Quest Level: Special Guild Quest. Recommended Adventurer Level: 0-5]

[Mission Objective: Clean up the slimes and resolve the crisis in Gruul Town]

[Task Reward: 2 Gold]

[Guild Raid Perk: If you are hit by Slime Acid, you can get free treatment from guild members Liu Rongrong and Ning Wen.]

Two gold coins seem like a lot, but when converted to copper coins, it's a whopping 20000 copper coins!

It could be divided among more than two hundred people, but each person wouldn't even get a hundred copper coins.

But Anno wanted to take this opportunity to improve the overall strength of the adventurers, which is why he had everyone participate.

With more participants, the remuneration will naturally be less.

In fact, Anuo could have completed this mission with Xue Feibai and the others.

However, since there are many slimes, it takes a while to clean them up.

The adventurers who participated in this mission were excited when they saw the guild mission rewards.

Priests, as a healing profession, are quite special and are generally absorbed by various major forces.

None of the adventurers before us were priests.

Some people were worried that the cost of treatment after an accidental injury would be too high.

Now that worry is gone, all the adventurers who participated in the mission rushed back to prepare.

Those who haven't become adventurers yet should hurry up and register with Maggie and the other person.

A day goes by quickly.

Anno entrusted the Adventurers' Guild headquarters to Maggie for safekeeping, and then led the gathered adventurers toward the town of Gruul.

Early in the morning, the people of Valkam saw a large group of people walking out of the city gate.

Those who didn't know the situation might have thought that a medium-sized mercenary group had been mobilized.

Those with better connections saw Anno at the front of the group and the nameplates worn by everyone, and realized that the Adventurers' Guild was up to something.

"Has the Viscount made any moves lately? I saw two fully armed squads of guards leave the city yesterday, and today the Adventurers' Guild members also left!"

"Could it be that monsters have attacked the surrounding villages and towns again?"

"No way, winter just ended this year, and Gran Village and Lado Town have already fallen. Now another village or town is being attacked by monsters?"

"Sigh, it's better to stay in Walkam. Although the pressure to survive is getting bigger and bigger, at least my life is guaranteed."

"Compared to this, don't you think the Adventurers' Guild has grown too fast? It was only established a few days ago, how come it already has several hundred members?"

"Hehe, you wouldn't know this, would you?"

Although the Adventurers' Guild was founded with the support of the Viscount, it was founded by a man named Anno.

In reality, anyone who is a professional can register as an adventurer.

Looking at all those people, they are actually a group of low-level professionals.

Look at the equipment they're holding.

A wooden stick picked up randomly from the roadside?

Are you planning to use the wooden basin as a shield?

This group of people is just ridiculous.

In my opinion, the Adventurers' Guild is just a bunch of rabble, and it can't compare to the Mercenary Group at all.

They'll disband soon.

"I heard that as long as you register as an adventurer, you can accept commissions and get a reward without fighting? And the guild only charges a 5% handling fee, which is equivalent to taking the full reward."

"What's the use? They only take on trash jobs, and the pay is so low. Mercenary groups, on the other hand, are paid at least in silver coins!"

Furthermore, some mercenary groups within the city are already dissatisfied with the Adventurers' Guild's actions. While they outwardly give face to the Viscount, the Adventurers' Guild certainly isn't having an easy time behind the scenes!

"Hiss~, is that so?"

"Of course, I'm a prospective member of the Hyena Mercenary Group. Yesterday, the leader gave orders that if we encountered any members of the Adventurers' Guild outside, we should teach them a lesson. It's a pity they all left today. Otherwise, I, Carol, a Level 5 Apprentice Knight, would definitely have made those adventurers pay!"

……

Anno rode his level 6 wind wolf at the head of the group, followed by the adventurers marching at full speed.

Following Anuo were Xue Feibai and others.

The group was discussing how to lead this group of novice adventurers into battle.

Meng Xin led a group of adventurers, all skilled in the thief profession, to explore the area ahead.

The journey to the town of Grür is long.

Even if professionals were to travel 40 kilometers lightly with dry rations and march quickly, it would still take them seven or eight hours.

"Anno, these adventurers don't even have a decent weapon. Can they really fight the slimes?"

It was Ning Wen who spoke.

Of the current nine, she is the only one still at level 0.

She said that because the adventurers following behind were poorly equipped.

Apart from a very few adventurers of level 3 or above who had iron weapons, the rest were carrying clubs, long sticks, and the like.

Those who came out with a shovel are already considered lucky!

Some people even came out empty-handed, carrying a wooden basin on their backs!

Anno, riding on his wind wolf, chuckled nonchalantly and said, "Slimes aren't actually that strong, aside from their acid. I used to conquer the grasslands with just a club!"

"Conquering...all directions!"

Ning Wen's lips twitched involuntarily. "But they're different from you!"

"Don't worry, don't underestimate them. These are all professionals who joined the Adventurers' Guild three days before it opened!"

Ning Wen didn't quite understand Anuo's meaning and asked, "Is there anything special about this?"

"Haha, this shows that even now, their edges haven't been smoothed out, and they still have a desire to become stronger!"

Xue Feibai, standing beside Anuo, chuckled and explained, "An ordinary person would just keep observing; they wouldn't make a decision so quickly!"

"Yes, whether they value the bounty for the mission or think that we have a viscount behind us and want to rely on him for support, at least they made their decision in a short period of time."

In terms of action, they have surpassed the vast majority of people.

The goal, of course, is to become stronger.

There might be some among them who want to take advantage of the situation, but that has no impact on us.

As a guild, our main task is to provide them with quest assignments.

The adventurers' affairs are none of our business.

However, this is only the early stage, and we need to find some promising talents to nurture and expand the guild's reputation.

Brother Bai, when you're leading the team, keep an eye out for any promising talents.

"no problem!"

The journey that followed was rather boring; we didn't encounter any monsters or magical beasts.

Therefore, the group moved very quickly.

We left Varkam at eight in the morning and saw the outline of the town of Gruul around three in the afternoon.

The adventurers gazed at the grasslands and the town from afar.

Seeing the countless slimes everywhere, I couldn't help but swallow hard.

Only a few people had fighting spirit in their eyes.

"Artemis, there are way too many slimes!"

"There's one almost every three to five meters. Looking around, there are at least a thousand, and there must be even more in the grasslands!"

"What's there to be afraid of? There are several hundred of us. The guild leader is here too!"

"The crops in the west have been almost completely destroyed! This year is going to be tough for the town of Gruel!"

"My greatsword is itching for a fight!"

……

Listening to the chatter of the adventurers around him, Anno rode his wind wolf to the front of the group and observed for a while.

There are indeed a lot of slimes.

However, most of them are below level 3.

The problem now is that the road to Gruul town is filled with slimes.

To get into town, we must first clear a road!

Anno turned to the adventurers, whose expressions varied, and shouted, "Everyone, rest here for half an hour. After half an hour, follow me into Gruul Town!"
