On their way here, they had been ambushed by a Two-headed Magic Wolf. Considering the hidden threat that was Raúl, Hansen found another two parties and arranged to depart at dusk tomorrow.
This way, the expedition team had a day of free time. After dinner, everyone dispersed and went off to find their own fun.
Hansen and Edward planned to stroll around the Trading Area. The old Thief's life-saving trump card had been destroyed, so he planned to look for a new attack-type Magic Device. The Tier 2 Swordsman, on the other hand, wanted to take this opportunity to upgrade his equipment. Both were veteran adventurers. Unlike those noobs who squandered money like crazy, Hansen and Edward's first reaction after earning money was to improve their strength.
The two of them knew that only by continuously improving their strength could they survive in a dangerous place like the Dungeon. They could find more treasures, receive more valuable commissions, and earn more money. This money could then be used to improve their strength, forming a virtuous cycle.
After working together, the old Thief and the Tier 2 Swordsman admired each other. The other's reaction in the face of danger was seasoned and calm. They were reliable teammates that could be trusted. Moreover, they were friends who had gone through life and death together. If there was an opportunity in the future, they might as well work together again.
Actually, there were many regular teams like this that slowly evolved from random teams. Through repeated commissions and expeditions, reliable teammates were discovered, and everyone worked well together. Finally, they became friends who could go through thick and thin with each other. That was how a powerful adventurer team began to take shape.
In fact, during this expedition, Hansen was quite satisfied with Lolo. Although the noob Brave's strength was average, he had a good personality and a kind heart. When it came to choosing teammates, strength was secondary. Scheming was the most important. After all, strength could be slowly cultivated. Moreover, with Lolo's current age, her strength was already quite good. In addition, she seemed to have the attribute of a Lucky General.
On the other hand, there were some players who, despite their outstanding abilities, harbored evil intentions. They were like a ticking time bomb in a party. No matter how powerful a Tier 2 Swordsman was, they would never dare to recruit such a person. Take Raul for example. Although Raul was a relatively rare Cleric, Hansen would never recruit him into his party after this expedition.
Unfortunately, Lolo's adventurer was only a part-time job. After saving enough money for school, she planned to cross the ocean to study. Hansen felt slightly regretful. In addition, he actually quite admired Luo Bu. Although the little scholar's combat ability was abysmal, his brain was very good. His knowledge was unbelievably vast, and his observation skills were astonishing. Moreover, no matter what situation he was in, he would always remain abnormally calm. Every one of these qualities was very rare, not to mention that all of them were concentrated on a single person. Although there were times when Luo Bu would drive a Tier 2 Swordsman crazy, it was not because of moral problems.
In general, Hansen was quite optimistic about Rob. If he wanted to become an adventurer, Hansen could even consider taking over the rookie The Brave's position and be his teacher for free. But considering his identity as a scholar, it should be easy for him to find a suitable job in the City Hall. With his intelligence, he would definitely be recognized by Baron Oliver soon. In the future, he might even be able to rise to the aristocracy. There was no reason for him to return to being The Brave.
As expected, when Hansen found the youth and expressed his interest in this aspect, he was tactfully rejected. This result was not out of the Tier 2 Swordsman's expectations. Hansen didn't take it to heart. He nodded to Rob and went to the Trading Area with Edward.
On the other side, Hilton ran to the other side of the camp to pick up girls. With his handsome face, Blond Boy easily hooked up with an archer girl. After a while, the two of them were flirting with each other. The girl hinted that Hilton could come to her room tonight to discuss theology.
The priest chuckled and agreed readily.
Grimm was a little sneaky. As soon as he entered the camp, he slipped into his room. He even ate bread in his room for dinner.
Archmage knew what he was afraid of. The little thief had done many wicked things in the underground maze and offended many adventurer teams. Some of them were still in the Dungeon, some had returned to Ryan, and some were still in the camp. If those guys saw Grimm, he would definitely be happy to see his fate. So, the moment he arrived at the camp, he rushed into his room like a dead otaku, shut the door and windows, and never showed his face again.
After being tense for half a month, they finally had a chance to relax. After the attendants were done with the things at hand, they gathered together and happily went to play cards.
The remaining archmage went to the exchange area alone and caught a certain bastard intelligence peddler. David was originally discussing business with the captain of a small team and wanted to slip away the moment he saw the youth. In the end, he was pressed to the ground by Luo Bu in three steps.
After more than ten days in the Dungeon, the youth's swordsmanship might not have improved, but his stamina had improved by leaps and bounds. At least he wouldn't be out of breath after running two steps. He might not be able to defeat an expert, but he was confident in dealing with an ordinary person like David who relied on intelligence for a living.
However, this was the Adventurers Guild's territory. Those who knew David stood up when they saw him being attacked. They didn't act rashly because there was a rule in the camp that forbade fighting. They only signaled to David with their eyes to see if he needed to look for the camp staff.
David obviously made a mistake in his estimation of someone's current physique. He was caught off guard and ate a mouthful of dirt. However, he still waved his hand, indicating that it was his personal matter. The others then sat back down.
"Aiyo, looks like you're doing well here. You have quite a lot of friends," the future Supreme Magus, Your Honor, said calmly.
David laughed dryly. "We're all benefiting from each other and getting rich together. Oh, I heard that you guys had a good harvest from this expedition."
"Yeah, thanks to you, we were almost wiped out by the others along the way."
Archmage sized up the little intelligence peddler with an unfriendly expression. Strictly speaking, Raúl had been watching them since Ryan, and the show at the entrance was more to cover for Beck. However, David did sell information about them to others.
Moreover, the group of second-grade magicians didn't look like good people. When David sold the information, he would have guessed what would happen next. In other words, this guy didn't care about the lives of others in order to earn money.
