When Anno heard Viscount Renault ask this question, he became excited.
The reason why Anno came to see Viscount Renault this time was to see what the other party’s current attitude towards him was.
When he went to the town of Gruul, he was considered to be betrayed by Viscount Renault, but he also semi-forced the title of hero from Viscount Renault.
However, this would not cause the two to turn against each other directly - Annuo currently did not have the strength to do so, and the Viscount believed that there was no need to do so.
Just now, Anno also learned from Viscount Renault's words that although the latter was dissatisfied, it would not affect the relationship between the two parties.
Viscount Renault probably still wants Annuo to continue training and expanding the Adventurer's Guild.
After understanding this, Anno prepared to discuss the next matter with Viscount Renault - the relevant information about the Forbidden Forest and the Aie Mountains.
This is exactly the additional information that Viscount Renault wants to know.
When Annuo learned from Liz yesterday that there were thousands of monsters in the Aie Mountains, he felt a sense of urgency.
What if one day, the monsters in the Aie Mountains suddenly realized that Valkham was strong on the outside but weak on the inside, and that a city of 300,000 people only had 5,000 professionals?
They are likely to launch an attack on Valkham.
By then, even if Anno could escape to other cities, the Adventurer's Guild he established in Valkham would be destroyed.
"My Lord Viscount, the monsters in this operation are actually all from the Forbidden Forest..."
Annuo picked out some simple information and told Renault.
These include the Goblin King of the Forbidden Forest, and the monsters that attacked Mir Village are also related to the Forbidden Forest.
At the same time, Anno also suggested that the Goblin King might be related to the monsters in the Aie Mountains.
Renault was shocked when he heard the news.
He never imagined that the monsters in the forbidden forest would have grown to thousands in number, and there was also the Goblin King.
Even the monster that attacked Mir Village was sent by the Goblin King.
Plus the monsters in the Aie Mountains.
Upon learning that there were so many monsters around the territory, Viscount Renault became a little restless.
"Annuo, where did you get this information?"
"My profession is a summoner. I can summon monsters through special means. The Viscount should already know this!"
Seeing Viscount Renault nod, Anno continued to explain: "In the battle in Gruul Town, I summoned a monster that understands both human and demon languages. This is all the information she got by sneaking into the monster's army.
Moreover, my summoned creature also got a piece of news.
The monsters in the Aie Mountains are the remnants of the Demon King's Seventh Army that defeated the Nergal Kingdom ten years ago!"
An Nuo concealed the fact that he got the information directly from Liz and made up a reason.
Renault stood up from his chair and walked back and forth in front of his seat.
He stayed in the East before being exiled to Valkham by the king.
But he also knew about what had happened near Valkham.
Ten years ago, after the Demon King's Seventh Army broke through the Kingdom of Nigar, it encountered the combined forces of the Empire and the Kingdom near Valkham, and was then surrounded and suppressed by the Empire's Sword Master. Who among the nobles of the Kingdom of Nigar didn't know?
However, no one knew that a part of the remaining troops had escaped to the Aie Mountains.
"Damn it, didn't the battle report at that time say that the Demon King's Seventh Army was completely annihilated? How come there are still remnants?"
Renault picked up a cup of black tea from the table and took a big sip.
However, he quickly composed himself and continued to maintain his previous calm image.
"Annuo, the information you mentioned is important, but its authenticity needs to be verified.
In this way, I will assign someone to verify the authenticity of this information and investigate the situation in the Forbidden Forest and the Aie Mountains.
At the same time, I will also entrust these tasks to the Adventurer's Guild. See if you can find the right people to do these tasks."
“I will post the quest on the Adventurer’s Guild, but I can’t guarantee whether anyone will take it.
After all, the levels of these two tasks are at least bronze, and there are no strong people in the current Adventurer Guild. "
Anno's main purpose is to remind Viscount Renault.
Seeing that Viscount Renault has taken the Aie Mountains and the Forbidden Forest to heart, he has achieved his goal.
"If we verify the authenticity of these two pieces of information and report them to the kingdom, the kingdom should send troops to encircle and suppress them."
An Nuo thought so in his heart.
With Viscount Renault's army of several hundred men, he would need the help of the mercenary group even for the Forbidden Forest, let alone the Aie Mountains.
When Viscount Renault heard Anno say that there were few strong people in the Adventurer's Guild, he frowned.
“Although you lost many people when you returned from the battle this time, I see that the strength of those who survived has greatly improved!
This shows that your original idea of letting adventurers take on commissions and allowing low-level adventurers to become stronger through continuous adventures was correct.
Adventurers can gain benefits and become stronger, which can attract more people willing to become professionals and adventurers."
Viscount Renault looked at Anno and said with determination: "From today on, I will send all suitable commissions inside and outside the city to the Adventurer's Guild.
An Nuo, you need to expand the Adventurer's Guild as soon as possible and train more outstanding adventurers!"
Compared to the operating model of a mercenary group, the Adventurer's Guild does have more opportunities.
Ordinary people who were unwilling to take a gamble before may now be willing to spend five silver coins, work hard to become a professional, and then choose to register as an adventurer.
As long as the Adventurer's Guild has enough commissions, more adventurers will join.
This is also a disguised way of increasing the number of Valkham professionals.
Improving the adventurer's strength is related to the number of commissions.
Viscount Renault has planned to assign as many commissioned tasks as possible to the Adventurer's Guild.
As for the mission reward.
Adventurers are basically lone wolves, and most of the bounty they receive will be used to improve their own strength, and the rest will be used to improve their quality of life.
No matter how the money is spent, as long as they live in Valkham and keep the coins circulating, it will eventually return to Viscount Renault.
Viscount Renault is well versed in economics.
This is also the reason why he can make Valkham, a place that should not be inhabited by 300,000 people, still function normally.
After some negotiations with Viscount Renault, Annuo received a large number of mission assignments from the former.
Afterwards, Viscount Renault ordered them to leave, claiming he had something else to do.
After Anno walked out of the Viscount's Castle, he immediately returned to the printing shop.
I stayed at the Viscount's place for two hours, plus the time spent going back and forth, it was almost two and a half hours.
By the time Annuo met the printing shop owner, he had already loaded 5,000 volumes of monster encyclopedias onto the carriage.
The boss wiped his sweat and said, "Master An Nuo, everything has been prepared. I did it all myself, even loading it into the car myself!"
“Good job!”
After taking out a few monster encyclopedias from the box on the carriage and taking a look at them, Annuo patted his boss on the shoulder with satisfaction and paid the balance.
A single illustrated book currently has a small number of pages, but the paper is still quite expensive, costing ten coppers per piece.
Five thousand copies equals fifty thousand coppers!
It translates to hardware.
An Nuo had just received a lot of tasks and task rewards from the Viscount, so he could use this money first.
Anyway, these illustrated books are to be sold to adventurers and we can make a profit.
