Chapter 221: The Elf Auntie Who Might Be an Enemy
“I’m number one!”
Roger's excited voice had not stopped since the moment he finished writing the intelligence summary.
Gapar and the others were tired of hearing this, so as soon as they entered Bed City, they quickly distanced themselves from this guy who had stayed up late and worked overtime to the point of insanity, and went back to their own homes to deal with their own affairs.
Although he worked overtime and stayed up all night to write the intelligence summary, Roger was still quite excited mentally. It might be because he wrote these things completely out of his own ideas and he was working for his own benefit so he didn't feel tired.
If you work for others and put in overtime on some shitty job that even dogs wouldn't bother with, you'll probably feel exhausted after a few minutes and start to involuntarily wonder what the meaning of life is.
Yes, what is the meaning of life, endless overtime work?
Roger didn't think about such profound things. He didn't even know where the end of the universe was, so how could he know the meaning of life? For him, it was probably about finding the little bird from his childhood.
"Where should I post the information? The bulletin board seems to be a good place, with a lot of people, but it's too noisy. Otherwise, I can go to the Adventurer's Guild. Although there are fewer people, there are elites in it, and they will definitely know the value of my information."
"By the way, should we charge for it? Hehe, if it sells well, I'll buy more meat for Hathaway. The money I make should be enough to let me lie down and do research for a while."
He tilted his head back and drank a bottle of stamina potion. A faint light appeared on his palm. He reached out and wiped his face, using a simple face-changing magic to remove all the dark circles under his eyes, making himself look no different from a normal person, except that his voice was a little weak.
"Bang--"
He pushed the door open suddenly, having imagined his way of appearance countless times in his mind. Yes, the noise of opening the door should attract everyone's attention. Then I would confidently walk to the center under everyone's gaze, announce the information and it would be well received.
But the reality is that people did glance at him, but there was not even a second of silence at the scene, and people continued to discuss their own topics enthusiastically.
Ah, this is different from what I imagined.
Roger was stunned for a moment and was almost hit by the door that bounced back.
It doesn't matter. Although the initial effect is different from what I imagined, there will definitely be a turning point as long as I publish the information.
He unbuttoned his coat and reached for the information kept inside. When he had pulled out half of it, he suddenly saw something familiar.
"Huh?"
Roger paused and stared at an adventurer. It was not because he saw an enemy or someone who owed him money, but because the other party was wearing a pyroxene stone mask!
Huh? Isn't that equipment that can only be obtained in the Spade Room? Why is it here?
Due to the obstruction of the pyroxene stone hood, he couldn't see clearly who the wearer was, but judging from the condensed body and momentum, he should be an elite adventurer with strong strength. If this was the case, it was not surprising that the other party obtained the hood.
But doesn’t this mean that someone in Bed City has already known the information here!
It's not that Roger has not thought about this issue, so he made the intelligence of Lake Lienia the highlight. He worked with the Sword Master and the Professor of Magic, so he should know more.
I still have a chance!
But irritation was already rising in his heart, and he suddenly heard the topic that the adventurers at the next table were discussing.
"Hey, have you heard about Lienia of the Lake? It's the new map that's very popular recently. It's said that it will be teleported to the city of Val."
"Of course, we are not deaf, but that place is very difficult. Only elites can enter now."
Lienia of the Lake!
After catching the key words, Roger's pupils trembled, and the manuscript in his hand wrinkled a little. He continued to eavesdrop.
"Difficult? But I heard from people who have been in there that it's easier to explore than the Fran Fortress. There's no disgusting poisonous swamp, the monsters are quite scattered, and the scenery is particularly beautiful."
"Really? But I heard the monsters there are very strong. Even a lobster can shoot your head off from 800 meters away."
"A mere lobster? Are you kidding me? I heard that someone encountered a shadow character who sells cooked lobster claws. He was even caught and cooked. How strong can a lobster be?"
Lobsters are damn strong, brother, scarier than soul-sucking ghosts. Roger couldn't help but complain in his heart.
He stuffed the manuscript completely back into his inner pocket and pretended to be strolling casually in the guild, but in fact he was eavesdropping on people's conversations.
"Mugram is so handsome. I love the feeling of being poked by him!"
Gay men enjoy it.
"Don't you think the mentor hat is sexy? You'll even scream when you take it out."
unbelievable.
"Why didn't he react when I took it out? And he told me I wasn't smart enough and told me to get lost?"
This is good material for being a berserker.
While listening and complaining, Roger discovered in despair that the information he was about to make public had already spread among the adventurers!
If we just eavesdrop, we won't be able to tell how much information the adventurers know, so there will inevitably be omissions.
In fact, the Sky Raiders Group, Luluwo and his team knew less information than Roger. They had no information about the town in front of the academy, Kale, the pyroxene key, etc. After all, after they died once and were teleported away, they rushed to Bed City without stopping, just to be the first-hand "uncle party".
Roger's information is still of great value, but he is now devastated by the news that "I am not the first" and doesn't want to say anything.
After sitting at the table feeling depressed for a long time, he let out a long sigh.
"Forget it, forget it. If you're not number one, then you're not number one. Go report to the old man."
The old man was referring to West Germany.
Before he and Gapar and the others set out, the branch president of the Adventurer's Guild got the news from somewhere and actually came to him in person and reached a deal with him to share intelligence.
After all, whether it is Japar, Tulsi or Hudes, they are all arrogant to some extent and may not cooperate with him. Only Roger can still fight for it.
Sid was the first person to see the value of this golden team - mainly because not many people knew that the Sword Master and the Magic Professor had formed an alliance.
"Just go to the third floor and find him."
While climbing the stairs, Roger was thinking about how to use the remuneration. First, he had to give his share to Mr. Gapal, Professor Tulsi, and Professor Hudes. But it would not be good to say openly that I have a deal with Sid. Should I change the money into gifts and give them to them?
With this in mind, he knocked and pushed open the door of the branch president's office.
The soundproofing of this office is indeed good. Roger didn't realize that Sid was talking to someone until he came in.
"Sorry to bother you." He quickly stepped back and tried to leave, but was stopped.
"Now that you're here, don't leave. This is a good opportunity to share the news about Sean with Ms. Weinmah." Sid smiled kindly.
Ms. Vienma?
Roger looked over in confusion, and saw an elf with green hair and pointed ears sitting on the sofa. She exuded a mature aura. Because her temperament was so mature, people couldn't help but call her aunt.
"He is Roger, an expert in the field of monster research. I will exchange information about the Sean Dungeon with him." Sid looked at Roger again and took the initiative to introduce him:
"This is Ms. Weienma, the magic master of the Elf Forest and an authority in the field of plant magic. By the way, she was also a professor at your Magic Association."
"It was just a dozen years ago. I'm no longer a professor."
Weinmah smiled and waved to Roger. How should I describe this smile? It was like your charming aunt, approachable and yet making you have some fantasies.
You can't tell at all that he is a former professor. A professor wouldn't be so kind.
Roger responded to the other party's greeting somewhat stiffly and sat down on the sofa on the other side.
People always feel restrained when facing strangers, especially when facing a beautiful strange woman.
But why does the name Weienma feel familiar, as if I have heard it somewhere? Where exactly did I hear it from?
"My rebellious little princess seems to have made a name for herself here." Weienma picked up the black tea, took a sip and put it down.
"One of the first to clear the Thane Dungeon. This reputation is already the highest among adventurers." Sid said, "Stella is excellent. She is the best young person I have met in these years."
Weinmah nodded with satisfaction. "I left the forest this time because I received her letter for help and wanted to come over to teach Dungeon a lesson. I didn't expect that she had overcome the difficulties and her career was flourishing. It seems that she doesn't need me anymore."
Oh, it turns out that these people were invited by Stellan. Roger suddenly realized that the elves must have connections.
"But I've heard a lot about that dungeon these days." She was referring to Sean, of course.
Sid understood something and smiled, "I see, the recently popular magic academy has also attracted your attention."
"You know, I always respect nature," she suddenly patted her skirt gently, "Star magic appeared in Thane, and stars also belong to nature, so I think it is necessary to go and take a look."
"Besides, Set and Hades are here too, right?"
Why did you suddenly mention the names of the two professors? Roger was surprised.
Weienma said with a fake smile:
"Since the reformists have also set their sights on this place, I will take away all their research results."
"Naturality and immutability are the truth of magic."
Why!?
Although Roger didn't understand the situation, as Seth's student, he felt panicked.
It's hostility, right? Vienma showed hostility towards Set and others, right?
Should I slip away now?
Just as he was hesitating, Sid changed the topic to him.
"Roger, what were the results of this exploration with the Sword Saint and the others?"
Okay, my turn.
He took a deep breath and took out the summary of intelligence that had not yet been made public.
Two days later, a group of dusty figures arrived outside the city of Bed.
"Look, that can't be Leon the Lion, why is he dressed like a beggar?"
"Nonsense, he's clearly wearing a vest and cape. This is the aesthetic taste of a strong man. You don't understand."
"But their faces are so haggard. They must have suffered inhumane torture."
"It seems that their exploration in Lake Lienia was not satisfactory."
People pointed and talked at Leon and his group who looked embarrassed. Their appearance instantly attracted everyone's attention.
"These people are so annoying." Malu said impatiently: "Boss, I'm sleepy and want to go home to sleep."
"Let's go back." Leon nodded weakly, looking as haggard as if he had been fighting in the Succubus House for three days and three nights.
No one knew what happened to them in the magic academy, but everyone had only one thought:
There is no end to the exploration. There is no end to the exploration.
They seemed to be suffering from a phobia of large maps, and their enthusiasm for dungeons was almost wiped out.
Stellan didn't even want to say anything. She just said hello to Leon and the others and staggered home.
Just then, she heard the conversation between passers-by.
"Those elves have been very active in Bed City recently, and have done a lot of work."
Elf? Whole life?
Stellan had a bad feeling in her tired heart.
