As the two were about to leave the residential area, they encountered a tall, burly man.
"Oru?"
"Linda?"
Orlu was seen carrying various exquisite bags and purses, apparently dragged out shopping by Kaine and the others to act as a human suitcase.
"Linda, you're willing to come back?" Oru, unaware of what had happened, said happily, "Don't take the captain's words to heart. That's just her temper. She's definitely worried about you."
Worried? About her?
Linda smiled.
Even if what Oru said is true, he doesn't need someone like that to worry about him.
"I came here today for this."
He showed the bag of documents containing his discharge certificate.
Upon seeing this, Oru paused for a moment, and accidentally dropped the bag he was holding to the ground.
Linda went over and picked it up.
"Thanks." Oru sighed with regret, knowing that things had come to this point and Linda could no longer rejoin the team: "Linda, even if you leave the team, we're still friends. If you ever have any difficulties, feel free to contact me."
The difficulties are there now.
Linda hesitated for a moment, then said, "I don't have any on hand..."
He's shy and embarrassed to borrow money.
"Hey, big guy, got any money? Can you lend me some?"
Kaphni, on the other hand, was completely uninhibited and spoke in a very casual manner.
Orlu was a little confused. "Huh? Money?"
Once adventurers reach level 15 or higher, they will never lack money for daily necessities.
Does "lacking money" mean a large amount of money? Like, money to buy new magical equipment or something?
Orlu chuckled dryly, "Um, Linda, I'm really sorry, the savings card is with Kaine. Wait a minute, I'll go ask her for it."
"Uh, then I won't trouble you."
"Give us whatever you have on you; we can't even afford to eat!"
Kaphni spoke with righteous indignation, directly drowning out Linda's voice.
Can't afford to eat?
Orlu looked at Linda in surprise.
Without asking any further questions, he searched his pockets and found fifteen gold coins.
Linda accepted it with gratitude.
"This amount of gold coins won't buy many pieces of equipment, will it?" Kaphni frowned. "There's a World Tree Treasury nearby. Why don't you go there and get the money?"
"Huh? That..." Oru's face turned bitter.
"Don't listen to her, she's not right in the head." Linda glared at Kaphni fiercely.
He knew that Oru and Kaine had bought a house in the inner city on installment, which put them under a lot of pressure. The money they had earned from their adventures was being used to carefully pay off the loan, and they didn't have a lot of gold coins to lend them.
After saying goodbye to Oru, the two took a carriage and headed straight for the Adventurers' Guild.
The blonde lady at the counter took the certificate of withdrawal from the team and placed Leah's signature in a magical instrument for verification.
The green light illuminated, indicating successful completion.
"Are you sure you want to leave the team? I think the Snow Goose Adventure Team is a Rock-level team," the blonde girl named Alice asked again.
"OK." Linda nodded.
Alice stamped the withdrawal certificate and then sent him to the World Tree Goddess statue in the center of the hall to pray and convey his intention to withdraw to the World Tree Goddess.
The statue of the World Tree Goddess stands in the center of the hall. She is a beautiful woman dressed in light gauze, with a large chest and long hair that falls to the ground.
A wreath of flowers adorned her head, and her compassionate eyes seemed to hold a love for all things, inspiring awe in all adventurers who saw her.
Kaphni curled her lip in disdain: "What a useless woman. In the end, she still had to be rescued by this god."
"Watch your mouth, or you're done for." Linda wanted nothing more than to punch Kaphni twice.
The 'World Tree Divine Court,' which worships the World Tree Goddess, is the largest power in this world, surpassing even the imperial family.
There is only one fate for those who offend the World Tree Divine Court: to be mercilessly killed by the warriors of the Inquisition.
Linda stood before the stone statue, clasped her hands together, and silently apologized for Kaphni's disrespect. Then she conveyed her intention to leave the Snow Goose Adventure Team.
At that moment, a loving female voice, as gentle as spring water, appeared in his mind:
"Hero chosen by the gods of the higher realms, there is no need for apologies. Ascend to the top of the World Tree as soon as possible and draw your sword..."
In the complete darkness with her eyes closed, Linda 'saw' a huge, beautiful woman who was at least five meters tall.
Her long, emerald-green hair cascaded down her back, her face radiant with maternal warmth. She stretched out her snow-white arms and embraced him into a soft, ocean-like embrace.
The enormous female deity kissed his forehead, and a refreshing sensation coursed through his body like a sudden awakening. A notification popped up on the system panel:
You have obtained the legendary passive skill [Blessing of the World Tree Goddess]!
[Blessing of the World Tree Goddess]: Your luck is tripled, making it easier for you to obtain rare magical equipment and resources within the secret realm.
This skill is genuinely useful.
Linda quickly thanked the World Tree Goddess in her heart.
A soft, motherly laugh rang in my ears.
When Linda opened her eyes, the illusion had vanished.
He also became a 'free agent', and his contract with the Snow Goose Adventure Team was terminated.
The two sides have completely severed ties.
"How does it feel to leave the team?" Kaphni asked.
"Comfortable."
Linda laughed loudly.
After leaving the team, I also received the blessing of the World Tree Goddess.
His kidney deficiency, caused by staying up for dozens of nights at Xueyan Hospital, was completely gone, and his energy and spirit were much stronger.
…
The two returned to the counter.
"I want to create a team."
Alice looked at them questioningly: "Are there only two of you members?"
"right."
"That won't work."
"Why?"
"As a former member of a Rock-class adventurer team, don't you even understand these rules?"
Alice patted the notice board behind her speechlessly: "A team must consist of at least three people, and each of them must be a healer, a damage dealer, and a defender. Teams that do not meet these requirements cannot be created."
"The registration fee for forming a team is 100 gold coins, but for an adventurer like you, 100 gold coins shouldn't be a problem, right?"
Alice said matter-of-factly.
Linda was speechless.
When it comes to the rules for forming a team, he really didn't know. It was Lia who did the team formation in the first place, and the guild members saw that they met the requirements, so naturally they didn't say anything more to remind them.
Linda now realizes that a team must consist of three people.
The team building fee isn't cheap either, a full 100 gold.
"Are you still forming teams?" Alice asked.
"Let's leave it for now..."
Linda left the Adventurers' Guild.
Currently, there are only two members in the team: he is a healer, and Kaphni's thief can barely be considered a damage dealer.
We're still missing a front-line tank to absorb damage.
He was pondering where to find a front-line warrior with excellent talent and a decent level to join his team.
