Soul echo

Chapter 181 The ignorant is fearless
"This... are you sure? Are you sure you want to release this task?"

The receptionist who was listening to the mission description heard what Zhong Ye said just now, looked up in astonishment, looked at him in disbelief, and asked again: "Are you really sure you want to do this?"

Zhong Ye put the money bag on the table with a smile, and pushed it over, "This is the reward, there is more if it is not enough."

The receptionist stared at the purse, then glanced at Zhong Ye again, took a deep breath, lowered his head and continued to write the task details.

An adventurer who stood by and listened to the whole process looked at Zhong Ye with a strange expression, then focused his attention on the money bag on the table, moved his index finger slightly, and couldn't help swallowing a mouthful of saliva pretending to be reserved.

——Every dealer who sells hallucinogens counts as one, as long as they are caught and turned over, they will be rewarded with a gold coin!
That's 'a gold coin'. How much did they earn by fighting life and death in the past?

In comparison, this job is really easy!

Sensing the heavy breathing of the adventurer beside him, Zhong Ye pursed his lips slightly.

This time is different from the past, there is not only Lilian by his side, the entire Adventurer's House can be his companion.

After writing down the details of the task, the receptionist showed Zhong Ye the task list twice, and after getting his confirmation, he left the front desk and walked towards the task bar.

The moment the receptionist just pasted up the mission sheet, the adventurer who was standing at the front desk just now appeared behind her, glanced at the mission number, and shouted loudly: "Mission No. 0104, I accept it!"

This abrupt shout directly attracted the attention of other adventurers standing in front of the task bar. They turned their heads and looked. After general education, they already knew some simple words. Also pay attention not to use obscure words to describe.

So, they just glanced at the task and widened their eyes.

"A gold coin for a hallucinogen dealer?!" Someone couldn't help screaming.

This price has exceeded their imagination - with Ananxi's current prices, one gold coin can allow them to live in other hotels for one or two months, and their usual reward for each adventure may be more than ten gold coins, but That's what they got in exchange for eating wind and drinking dew and hardships.

Before each adventure, you need to prepare a lot of supplies, and at the same time risk your life.

When traveling, monsters are not the only things that can cause danger to them. The environment, weather, and even luck are factors that can kill them.

Compared with other tasks, the cost performance of this task is too high!Unbelievably high!

Hearing the scream, the entire hall fell silent, and dozens of adventurers and mercenaries turned their heads to look at the mission bar.

They looked like hungry wolves with green eyes.

Zhong Ye stepped aside and made room for the adventurer.

As soon as he left the front desk, an adventurer rushed over, pointed at the mission bar, and asked loudly, "Is that mission in 0104 real?"

The adventurer's saliva sprayed out, and the bad breath sprayed on the receptionist's face. The receptionist frowned, took out a handkerchief, wiped his face, and nodded, "It's true, we have already got 30 A reward of several gold coins."

More than 30 pieces...only more than 30 places?
"I took it! Quick, register me!"

The adventurer slapped the table, so excited that the blood vessels in his neck were throbbing.

They have always been unable to resist the temptation of money. For money, they would even sacrifice their lives to go to the dangerous and terrifying wilderness. Now they just need to deal with a group of hallucinogen dealers.

For ordinary people living in the city, those traffickers may be dangerous, but in the eyes of those desperadoes who often wander on the edge of the cliff, those guys are just some kids with knives and guns playing awe-inspiring—— The worst fighter is infinitely stronger than a fly!
Adventurers and mercenaries swarmed towards the counter like hungry wolves smelling meat.

Using adventurers to deal with hallucinogen dealers is a dimensionality reduction strike. These dangerous elements active in the wilderness are far more powerful than hallucinogen dealers.

They need to use their body and wisdom to fight against the environment and monsters, and hallucinogen dealers are just a group of thieves wandering in dark places such as stinky gutters and dark alleys. How can they compare with adventurers?

Faced with different situations, different methods can be used.

Zhong Ye stood aside silently, watching this crazy scene.

Annecy is a small city, because it can be regarded as the center of a parish, and many believers of the Goddess of Family settled here, which made the population reach [-].

In contrast, there are 23 adventurers and mercenaries in this hall today. If you count the adventurers sleeping in the room and living in other hotels, the number of adventurers in this city will not be too high. Over fifty.

Among these adventurers and mercenaries, not all of them have traveled long distances and entered the dangerous wilderness, and some of them will only move around a few towns.

Even so, their strength was not comparable to that of hallucinogen dealers, and it would not take long for most of the hallucinogen dealers in this city to be caught in front of him.

Now he needs to think about how to deal with those hallucinogen dealers and how to contain them.

It is obviously impossible to hand it over to the local lord. He issued this task already pressing the bottom line of the local law. Even if he wants to be hostile to the lord of Annecy in the future, it is not impossible.

—He seriously suspects that the lord of Annecy is in league with the interest group behind the hallucinogen dealers, and although there is no evidence to suggest this, he trusts his instincts.

Therefore, when he asked the receptionist to issue the task, he specifically stated the 'task issuer'.

After accepting the task, the adventurers and mercenaries returned to their rooms one after another, reorganized their equipment, and prepared to go out for 'hunting'.

The adventurers who were staying in other hotels also opened the door and left. Among them, Zhong Ye saw the adventurer who had introduced him to the Thieves Guild before, and he also left the Adventurer's House with the others.

It's just that unlike other people's excitement, Zhong Ye can smell the panic on his body.

Soon, apart from the staff of the Adventurer's House, only Zhong Ye and two drunken adventurers were left in the hall.

The two receptionists, who had never seen such a battle before, shook their sore and tired dominant hands. They used that hand to write more than a dozen forms just now, and they couldn't be slow, otherwise they would be urged by adventurers.

The retired adventurer who was sitting by the side with his wine glass in his hand couldn't help expressing his emotion: "To be honest, if I hadn't retired for many years, I would definitely want to get involved. But boy, you don't care about those guys. Do you hate it so much?"

It was a dwarf with gray hair and beard, and his weapon—a long ax with a face the size of a face—was leaning beside him.

Zhong Ye was silent for a moment, then said: "I do have hatred for them, and I think that I should not be the only one who hates them, everyone should hate them - have you ever seen someone who was hurt by hallucinogens?

"Their brain nerves are broken when they use hallucinogens for the first time, and they are physiologically dependent on hallucinogens. Every time they use them, their bodies will be damaged, and after using them, they will become more and more Not satisfied with low-end hallucinogens, but instead pursue drugs that can make them feel more happy.

"During this process, their bodies will gradually collapse, and the various systems in their bodies will be gradually weakened, and finally they will go on strike one after another. At that time, they will die, but before they die, they will spend all their savings. If If they lose their jobs, they will cheat, murder, and rob, even if they face their family members.

"From the moment they first use hallucinogens, their 'human' attributes are fading away and they gradually become slaves to the hallucinogens.

"This kind of stuff is extremely harmful to society. Once you let it go, it will spread quickly. Don't expect something like 'as long as I don't use it'. Addicts have no morals at all. They will find ways to get hallucinogens. If What about the traffickers who promised to give them a free fee if they could lure a person into this swamp? Do you think they would do that? You can really, completely, totally keep yourself and your family from these things something?"

"... Hiss!"

After hearing Zhong Ye's words, the old dwarf was so shocked that he couldn't recover for a long time.

Just hearing about it makes one's hair stand on end, if this kind of thing really happened... no!Can't let this happen!
"To deal with this group of guys who can't be considered human at all, we must strike hard!"

The moment Zhong Ye finished speaking, the door of the Adventurer's House was pushed open, and a heroic man in leather armor and a coat walked in.

"Excuse me, is Your Excellency Zhong Ye here?"
