Each Silver Tree Fruit is worth 10,000 gold coins, and with two more, the subsidy is quite substantial.
Gail joked, "Linda, even the Ghost Adventurers should thank you."
"I'm already grateful they didn't curse me; they even thanked me," Linda smiled.
At this moment, Halus is probably in prison, mourning Cam.
During the Winter Solstice Festival, we could only watch the fireworks display through iron bars on the windows.
"Linda, do you have any thoughts about the invitation from Qingkong University?" Velen asked expectantly.
Linda didn't rush to answer, but looked at Abner first, somewhat curious: "Why did Commander Abner refuse Qingkong University's invitation back then?"
Objectively speaking, accepting the invitation from Qingkong University is a very advantageous move.
With the best adventure resources in the province, renowned instructors providing personal guidance and training, and professional knowledge... Qingkong University is equivalent to a prestigious 985 university; if one person gets in, the whole family is proud.
Everyone looked at Eberner, their hearts feeling like they were being scratched by a cat.
Yes, why did Eberner reject Aozora University back then?
Under a barrage of questioning gazes, Eberna slightly opened his eyes.
The quiet adventurer with her long, light blue hair tied in a ponytail silently looked out the floor-to-ceiling window, through which she could see the World Tree shimmering with emerald green light under the night sky.
"Because of the existence of the 19th floor [door] in White Dove City. As long as the door remains, White Dove City may never produce a Rising Sun-level adventure team."
"I want to break down that door with my own hands."
Ebernar's voice was calm, but the firmness and determination in his tone commanded respect.
With Abner's strength, if he were in another city's World Tree, he would have already reached level 40 and become a Moon-rank adventurer.
Eberna stayed behind to fight the Nightmare Guardian, known as the "Door," located on the 19th floor of White Dove City.
The Nightmare Guardian is stronger than the Hidden Monster.
It is a trial that the World Tree Goddess randomly sends down at irregular intervals.
Before this trial is completed, all adventure teams entering the 19th floor of the World Tree in White Dove City will encounter the Nightmare Guardian.
If the gate remains, it will greatly affect the future of adventurers in White Dove City.
In the future, many adventure teams may choose to change their adventure origin after reaching the 19th floor and settle in Red Peach City or South Rock City, resulting in a continuous loss of powerful adventurers from White Dove City.
Of course, there is another approach: the authorities spend a lot of money to hire outstanding adventure teams from other cities to help their city defeat the Nightmare Guardians.
But if that happens, the adventurers and officials of White Dove City will be despised by the entire empire—a city that can't even train an adventure team to hunt down the Nightmare Guardian certainly doesn't need the empire's resources, right?
Your local officials will never get a promotion in their lifetime!
The overall atmosphere of the Secret Realm Continent is one of survival of the fittest.
The strong get stronger, and the weak get weaker.
There are two main reasons why Abner refused Blue Sky University: firstly, to challenge the Nightmare Guardians, and secondly, to repay President Velen for taking him in.
Abner had become a wandering adventurer due to the monster tide, but Guild Master Velen accepted him and put him in charge of the White Dove Adventurer Group.
Therefore, Abner preferred to give up the tempting invitation from Blue Sky University and stay in White Dove City.
"So, what about you, Linda? I think you should accept Qingkong University's invitation."
