Six days later!

Seeing the outline of the royal city from afar, the adventurers couldn't help but shout loudly.

Adventurers also played a big role in the Battle of the Gaso River.

When they return to the royal city, they will be awarded various honors.

Especially the birth of [The Best in the World].

"Your Highness Tester, remember to count the champion rewards and the prizes for the top ten members when you return."

"Don't worry. Although it hurts a bit, the adventurers' contribution this time is indeed huge. The only pity is that they are unwilling to join the army."

Tester felt a little bit sorry.

On the way back, he was trying to recruit participants.

But the surviving contestants are not very interested in joining the army.

According to Green, he has gradually come to like being an adventurer who constantly takes on missions and goes on adventures.

"Even the other adventurers are ready to learn from you and aim to complete a heroic mission. They have no intention of joining the army at all, alas~!"

Tester sighed.

"Why do you always want to steal my girl?"

An Nuo said unhappily, "The strength of these adventurers who have been on the battlefield and survived has greatly improved. I am counting on them to take on more high-level tasks in the guild in the future and increase the influence of the Adventurer's Guild!"

"What influence do you need? The Adventurer's Guild is already well-known in the Royal City.

After the [Number One in the World] award ceremony was over, everyone in the city knew about the adventurers’ contributions.

Then I will announce to everyone in public that you have completed a heroic mission and grant you a heroic title and nobility.

And the giant dragon that came to you midway, after you bring it back, won't your reputation among adventurers rise rapidly?"

As he spoke, Test looked back at Adelaide on the flank of the team.

To him, this dragon has an IQ problem.

Or maybe they lacked love since childhood.

After Ella came forward, she calmed the dragon down with just a few words, and the dragon was willing to stay with Annuo and follow Annuo together with Ella.

Please, where is your dragon pride?

Even if you fight with Annuo, lose and then get conquered by Annuo, I will still respect you as a tough dragon.

In short, looking at Adelaide, Test felt that the image of the dragon in his mind collapsed.

Tester is not the only one who thinks this way!

The adventurers were also confused.

How can you tame a ferocious dragon so easily?

Of course, Adelaide Yudula also has something to say about this matter.

It's a female, not a tough dragon!

“So, I still need these adventurers to digest the impact brought about by the rise in adventurer fame.

What if the Adventurer's Guild received a bunch of gold, platinum, or even mithril-level quests, but no one completed them? How embarrassing would that be?"

Anno responded with a grin.

"Come on, with you as the president of the Adventurer's Guild, you can complete as many Mithril-level missions as you want."

"I don't plan to take any missions recently. I plan to practice for a period of time to digest the improved strength!" This is Annuo's next arrangement for himself.

The fifth and sixth level summoner skills must be learned.

By the way, continue to develop the Adventurer's Guild.

The players participating in the world's number one professional competition this time are not just humans.

The one who won the title of "Number One in the World" was Green from the elf tribe.

These people now have a high degree of recognition of the identity of adventurers, so it will be much easier to establish branches in their countries.

Besides, it's war time now!

The Adventurer's Guild should be able to receive many quests.

"I didn't expect that someone like you still needed to practice. I always thought you were the kind of person who could improve your strength even when you were sleeping!"

Tester deliberately teased Anno in a sarcastic tone.

"hehe!"

…

Before the adventurers got close to the city wall, they attracted the attention of passers-by on the official road.

One reason is that there is a giant dragon over 20 meters tall in this team!

The second reason is that this group of people all seem to be adventurers. The nameplates on their chests prove their identities, and some of them are carrying the flags of the Adventurer's Guild.

"Hey, are these people the adventurers who rushed to the northern frontier half a month ago?"

"It seems so. Aren't those walking in front His Highness Tester and the president of the Adventurer's Guild?"

"I heard that Warrengel fell because of His Highness Tester's wrong decision and the Adventurer's Guild's disobedience."

"Even Warrengel has fallen. I didn't expect so many adventurers to escape back."

"Adventurers are professionals who seek bounties. The reason so many of them have escaped is probably because they all became deserters."

"I used to support the Adventurer's Guild, but now it seems that those long-established mercenary groups are more reliable!"

"We can't jump to conclusions so early. I always feel that there is something fishy about this matter."

"What's so strange about this? The news was first revealed by His Highness Simmons, and several members of the mercenary group testified.

Everyone in the Royal City knew that because the Third Prince was eager for quick success and blindly believed in the strength of the Adventurer's Guild, he did not listen to the advice of His Highness Simmons and rashly went into war with the Undead Legion. Not only did he lose 100,000 defenders, but even those high-ranking ones have not received any news yet.

I also heard that the Undead Army has begun to invade the North. The residents of many towns have turned into Undead. "

"It's the same news I got. If the news was false, the royal family would have come out to clarify it long ago. But until now, no one has come out to say that the news is false. Alas, the third prince is still too young and not as steady as the eldest prince."

These people spoke in very low voices.

After all, the Tester they were talking about was a member of the royal family.

If you are caught gossiping behind someone's back, you could even be beheaded.

Therefore, Tester, Annuo and others only felt that people around the official road were pointing in their direction, but they didn't know the reason.

"I have a bad feeling!"

Tester frowned, looked at the city gate in front of him, and walked over quickly.

Anno glanced at the crowd around him and followed Tester with his men.

The guards at the city gate had already seen An Nuo and others.

They even called for support because of Adelaide's presence.

The guards breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that it was Test who came back.

Tester talked to the guard for a while, and then his face became darker and darker.

From the guards, Test learned that Simmons, who had returned early, had actually joined forces with several large mercenary groups to discredit Test and the Adventurer's Guild in the Royal City.

Now everyone in the royal city is talking about the news that Warrengel was breached by the Undead Army due to Test's wrong command and the adventurers' disobedience to command.

"Simmons is a coward, but he's really good at confusing right and wrong!"

Tester's teeth were grinding with anger.

If Simmons had not escaped early and taken away another seventh-level magic-sealing crystal, the war weapons could have been dealt with more quickly and the war situation could have been stabilized earlier.

And because of Simmons' improper command, the Dawn Legion also made many mistakes, which almost led to the collapse of the defense line.

Simmons' mistake was finally overcome by the desperate fighting of tens of thousands of defenders and adventurers.

As a result, this guy not only did not repent, but also slandered the adventurer who had made great contributions, causing damage to the adventurer's reputation.

Previously, almost every professional in the royal city wore a nameplate.

But now, as long as you wear a nameplate, you will be pointed at when you walk on the street.

This led to many people taking down their nameplates.

Many people even went to the Adventurer's Guild to cancel their registration.

"Annuo, don't worry, I will give you an explanation for this matter!"

Tester turned around and was about to leave, but was called aside by Anno.

"Your Highness, I think there is something wrong with this matter. His Majesty the King could not have been unaware that Warrengel had not fallen, nor could he have been unaware of the rumors in the royal city that were completely contrary to the facts. However, the King did not come out to stop it."

"Father, he..." Test's eyes dimmed, feeling a little aggrieved.

He felt the Kings were favoring Simmons.

But on second thought, Tester became a little confused again.

"No, no matter how the rumor spreads, it is still a rumor. It is a fact that Warrengel has not fallen. The rumor will naturally be exposed after we come back. Simmons jumped hard before, and he will fall hard after the rumor is exposed!"

At the end of his speech, Test's eyes gradually lit up.

"As the first heir to the kingdom, he escaped from the battle, ignored the facts, and deceived the people! This...this guy's good days are over!"

"So, His Majesty the King is probably providing you with an opportunity by allowing this matter to develop!"

An Nuo added.

"I know that my father loves me!"

Test's expression changed from gloomy to bright, and he was very excited.

"Anno, I'm going to go back and deal with this first. The day of the awards ceremony is the day to clear the name of the Adventurer's Guild!"

"Don't take it lightly, Simmons has a lot of supporters behind him."

"Don't worry!"

Looking at Tester who left with the guards, Annuo walked towards the Adventurer's Guild.

"Let's go home too!"

…

Adventurer's Guild.

The bunny girl hid behind the wolf girl, her big eyes filled with fear.

In front of the wolf girl, a ferocious looking mercenary was sitting on a chair with a slash of his sword.

There were many mercenaries around looking at them with evil smiles on their faces.

Click!

The mercenary sitting on the chair took a bite of the apple, chewed it with his yellow teeth for a few times, and swallowed it. Then he said, "The Adventurer's Guild is a piece of garbage. It shouldn't exist. Smash it!"

"yes!"

A group of mercenaries immediately began to sabotage the guild!

Broken tables and chairs, and torn task lists were scattered all over the floor.

The strength of these adventurers are all level three, or even level four, and the leader is even level five!

The wolf girl, the bunny girl and the receptionist in the guild had no power to resist at all.

The wolf girl watched all this and said coldly: "You dare to do this, aren't you afraid of revenge from the president when he comes back?"

"Revenge? Hahahaha... He's just a useless guild master who plays tricks every day. I heard he's only at level 5. He might have already turned into an undead by now!"

Kershaw laughed loudly and said arrogantly: "What a pity, I don't have the chance to fight the legendary An Nuo, otherwise I would make him kneel in front of me!"

Just when the bunny girl was about to cry, the mercenary guarding outside the door suddenly ran in in a panic.

"Oh no, Captain Kershaw, outside... outside... they're back!"
