Chapter 28: The calm on the eve of destruction After the adventurer's guild's poster girl tried it herself, or tried it out, she summoned an acid slime with the low-level monsters she had traded, and bound herself in a cocoon, giving the adventurers the opportunity to wear clothes and give them benefits.
The atmosphere suddenly became more lively After admiring the beauty of the Adventurer's Guild poster girl, who was surrounded by slimes, her clothes were in tatters, her beauty was drained, and she was extremely ashamed and angry.
Immediately, a group of guys who seemed to be relatively well-off rushed forward and surrounded her.
He found the white cat political commissar squatting on the counter and wanted to buy spells from it.
"There is really a way to become a magician instantly.
Each magic spell costs three gold coins, right?
Give me one too."
"Thank you for your patronage.
Please give the gold coin to Mr.
Sebastian, and then look into my eyes seriously.
Meow Mentor and Friend Activate" "Is the result really completely random?
There is no way to choose the magic you want.
If possible, I would be willing to pay more."
"I'm sorry, this request really can't be fulfilled.
No matter how much money you have, it's useless.
Please come up next."
"Hey Mr.
Cat, is this the end?
I don't seem to feel anything."
"Unfortunately, the spell casting failed, meow.
Your magic value is zero.
You can't use the spell to replace meow with the next one anyway."
"Mr.
Cat, the flying technique you gave me just now is really great.
Can you give me another one?
Money is not an issue."
"Sorry, the spell of mentor has a cooling time for the subject and cannot be used continuously.
After all, your head is not a pocket, and you cannot keep stuffing things in it all the time, otherwise you will have a headache and faint, and you may even suffer from a complete illness.
My head will explode.
If you really like it, please come to Kahn Village next month and remember to bring your money."
In short, the atmosphere in the Adventurer's Guild on this day became extremely lively.
Some people get powerful magic that looks very practical or very cool, so they are very happy; some people grit their teeth and spend a lot of money, but only get a useless spell, so they huddle in the corner with a look of pain on their faces and mutter.
Muttering.
Of course, there are more people who are short of money and can only look at those lucky ones who have gained magic skills in one step and are eager to see them.
After all, although the service price of three gold coins is not particularly high, not everyone can afford it.
Especially those low-level adventurers who have low incomes and lack the habit of saving money.
Whenever they have money, they use it to drink and visit prostitutes.
They often cannot even find a single gold coin in their pockets.
However, the caring butler Sebas issued a bounty mission through the guild: "In order to build the mage tower in Karn Village, we are currently in urgent need of a large number of construction laborers.
At the same time, we also need to venture into the forest to cut wood and quarry.
At least there must be monsters."
The ability to protect yourself in the face of danger.
Hire a large number of low-level adventurers with bronze medals or iron medals to serve as construction laborers in building the mage tower.
The compensation during the task is only room and board, and no coins are paid.
However, during the construction period, mentors and friends can be used to teach quick magic once a month, and they are guaranteed to learn it in earnest.

It will not be transferred to others” Generally speaking, in this world that advocates force, no matter whether they are noble knights, professional soldiers or adventurers, they all have "martial pride" to a certain extent.
They generally despise productive labor and look down on farmers and craftsmen with muddy hands.
But since in this world, the strong are respected, on the other hand, the weak are not qualified to be picky.
For those rookie adventurers who have just started and are weak in strength, that is, the lowest "bronze medal" and "iron medal", their self-esteem has not yet inflated to that level.
In other words, they are not yet qualified to be so proud. .
In order to enhance one's own strength, it seems that there is no shame in occasionally going back to the original profession for a while.
So, when Butler Sebas left the Adventurer's Guild, in addition to the three cats and the four members of the "Sword of Darkness" adventure group, there were also a large group of low-level bronze and iron medals who were going to Kahn Village to "earn magic by doing odd jobs."
Adventurers, and a bag full of gold and silver coins.
Although they encountered a few blind gangsters who tried to block the road and rob them, they were swarmed by hired adventurers who were eager to show off and were beaten to a bloody pulp before it was the steward's and cat's turn to take action. , half dead, and then thrown out as a deterrent.
"Although I still don't understand why you insisted on hiring this Dark Sword Adventure Group, but in terms of the results, it seems to be pretty good.
By selling magic, I not only raised enough money to buy tools, paint and food, but also obtained So many workers.”
Looking at the large group of people behind him, Butler Sebastian couldn't help but sigh sincerely, "Thank you so much."
Although Lich King Ainz previously obtained two thousand gold coins in the market of the fortress city by selling fine steel and other high-grade materials, he has also been on a shopping spree these days, spending a lot of money and buying everything in one go.
Many kinds of expensive "local products".
As a result, by the time he left the city, all the funds left to Butler Sebas were only more than 300 gold coins.
Not to mention purchasing a mansion as a stronghold, even the cost of preparing to build a branch base in Kahn Village was far away.
It is far from enough that Kahn Village is just a small village with a population of more than a hundred people, and nearly half of it has just been massacred.
It cannot provide anything for the establishment of the Mage Tower, and even the labor force is far from enough.
However, the political commissar White Cat, who registered a full-level scholar player account, just stayed in the Adventurer's Guild for a long time and acted as a mentor dozens of times, and all the problems of people and money were solved.
"You're welcome, Mr.
Sebastian, we originally proposed to build the mage tower in Kahn Village to accommodate the new population."
The white cat political commissar replied politely, "Is there anything else you can do next?
If there is anything we can do to help, please don't be polite."
"Well, next we need to buy some construction tools, at least axes and saws for logging.
Then there are food and other supplies, after deducting the tap agency fee paid to the guild, alas, the rest seems to be gone.
It’s too much, but it’s still not enough to buy a mansion.”
Sebastian stretched out his hand and rubbed his forehead, "Forget it, we'll talk about buying a house later.
Let's find them a place to spend the night first."
Obviously, with such a large group of people, it would cost a lot of money to sleep in a Datongbu in a fortress city where land is limited and every inch of land is at a premium.
So Butler Sebastian simply took them out of the city, lit up piles of bonfires under the city wall, and camped for one night before setting off.
Although such conditions are really shabby, the adventurers, who have been traveling in the wild all year round and are used to sleeping in the open, do not care about it.
Each of them took the cooking utensils around them and cooked several large pots of thick soup using beans, dried meat and vegetables obtained from unknown sources.
After eating warmly with the black bread provided by their employer, they wrapped themselves in Take a blanket and rest early to recuperate for the long journey the next day.
In order to make a good impression on their new employer, the four members of the "Dark Sword" adventure group took the initiative to take turns taking turns to watch the night.
In fact, this place is just outside the gate of the fortress city.
Unless the imperial army comes to kill, there will be nothing at all.
Ordinary monsters or bandits dare to make trouble.
The main goal of their vigil is not to guard against bandits, but to worry that the temporarily hired adventurer laborers will steal their companions' things and cause disputes.
Of course, it is more likely to attack their new employer, Butler Sebas, if no precautions are taken at all. words.
Because it was still early and the sun had not yet set, the four silver medal adventurers of the "Black Sword" adventure group were still in good spirits.
None of them fell asleep.
Instead, they sat next to the campfire and drank the remaining hot soup.
While chatting casually with Butler Sebastian.
"Mr.
Sebastian, although our little Nina looks thin and shy, in fact, he is a famous magic caster who is born with supernatural powers and is called a genius."

The light of the swaying fire Under the bright red sunset, the scout archer Luclott slapped the magician Nina on the shoulder with a playful smile, and boasted, "Half of the reputation of our adventure group is supported by him."
"Oh, can you tell me more about your natural abilities?"
Upon hearing this word, Butler Sebastian immediately showed an expression of interest and leaned forward, pretending to be listening attentively.
According to Lich King Ainz's investigation, unlike the magic in this world that is roughly similar to the "yggdrasi" game, "natural powers" are something unique to this world.
On average, about one person in two hundred people will have a natural special ability. ability.
Although people born with special abilities are not uncommon in this world, these special abilities vary widely.
There is a huge difference in strength and weakness, and the types are ever-changing.
For example, someone has the ability to predict the weather, but unfortunately the accuracy is only 70%, which can only be said to be better than nothing.
Others' abilities are more practical, such as being able to strengthen summoned monsters, or speeding up the ripening and harvesting of grains.
In short, there are many types.
However, these are innate abilities that cannot be chosen or changed, nor can they be made stronger through exercise.
Therefore, it often feels useless.
For example, someone is born with the ability to increase the destructive power of magic.
But the physical aptitude does not meet the minimum requirements for learning magic, so the natural abilities are useless.
And those who can effectively utilize their natural abilities can only be considered a lucky minority.
But even so, due to the unpredictable nature of natural abilities, it is difficult to judge the degree of threat it poses.
Maybe there are natural enemies that specifically suppress the undead and can pose a fatal threat to the Great Tomb of Nazarick.
Therefore, Lich King Ainz, who looks very strong on the outside but is actually very timid on the inside, is almost at a loss when it comes to such a completely unknown thing.
He specifically ordered Sebas to pay more attention to collect information in this area. .
"Remember, the name of this natural ability is magic suitability.
In short, it allows little Nina to learn magic faster.
A course that takes others eight years to learn can be shortened to only four years.
I am not a magic caster, so it's not It’s clear how powerful it is.”
Luclotte replied casually, and at the same time poured a large mouthful of hot soup into his mouth, "Oh, why don't I have any innate powers?"
This effect is to accelerate learning.
It seems that it is a skill that is not available in the Great Tomb of Nazarick.
It must be reported to the master.
Although as a martial artist, Sebas is not very interested in magic, but according to the instructions of the Lich King Ainz, it seems necessary to collect abilities that he did not have before.
Should we call this nina?
Should we take control of the magician or take him back first?
"Indeed, it is a blessing to be born with this ability, because at least it allows me to take the first step in chasing my dreams.
Without this ability, I am afraid that I will be just an ordinary civilian when I die.
Just spend your life mediocrely in a small mountain village.”
Nina obviously didn't notice the predator-like look in his employer's eyes at this moment, and just sighed in a low voice, with obvious gloom and heaviness.
Captain Peter, who was trying to clear up the gloom, quickly spoke in a completely different tone: "Don't be too sad, Nina, no matter what, you are a well-known person with natural abilities in this city.
There will definitely be people with special abilities." bright future” "Captain, you are really exaggerating."
Nina seemed a little embarrassed by the words, "Speaking of the fortress city.
Lantel's most famous natural superpower, how can I compare to that guy Nfirea?
No matter from which aspect” "Is Nfirea also a famous person with natural powers in the city?"
Sebastian interjected and asked.
"Yes, his full name is Nfirea Barreare, and he is the grandson of a famous pharmacist.
His natural ability is that he can use any magic item.
No matter what system of scroll it is, or it is not originally He can use all the props that can only be used by the human race.
Even some props that require royal blood are no problem for him.
It can be said that he can walk. " Nina answered so casually, but he didn't know that a warning bell was ringing in Sebastian's heart.

It’s okay to be born with the ability to use any magic item regardless of bloodline and camp restrictions.
If this guy accidentally gets the guild weapon from the Great Tomb of Nazarick, the Staff of Ainz Ooal Gown that can intimidate all Guardian NCs, or a key control center, wouldn't the entire group have an instant?
possibility of destruction It seems that Master Ainz is right.
People with natural powers are indeed one of our biggest threats in this world.
We need to raise our awareness of prevention.
On the other side, in another corner of the camping area, Tabby Elvis Qiu quietly opened his personal player panel, which displayed a feedback message: Change the fate of the "Sword of Darkness" adventure group's group destruction and obtain 2,000 reward points.
Currently The reward points are 48,000 points, please keep up the good work.
"I finally earned another amount of points, but unfortunately I'm still far from the expected goal of 750,000 points."
After a short period of excitement, he couldn't help but feel depressed again, "I hope that after the collapse of the fortress city, I can make more money."
"Anyway, I always feel that this matter is very uncertain.
How sure are you of your plan?"
Political Commissar Guo, the Persian cat scholar, muttered in a low voice.
"I don't know.
Anyway, I have tried my best within my ability.
First, I got rid of the Lich King Ainz, who guest-starred as the savior in the original plot, and then took away so many adventurers from the city.
Although most of them It’s the lowest level of bronze and silver medals, but it also weakens the fortress city’s defense strength.
If those necromancers can’t succeed under these conditions, then we can only accept our fate.”
Tabby cat mage Wang Qiu spread his paws helplessly, "We can't go into battle in person to help, not to mention how we will explain to that guy Ainz once it is exposed.
Even if we are willing to help, most of the necromancers are responsible for this.
You don’t want to trust us” "That's true.
It seems we can only try our luck next.
I hope these terrorists from the magical world can be more effective."
At the same time, on the avenue on the outskirts of the city, there was a young woman hidden in a black cloak.
She walked lightly around the adventurers camping outside the city gate, and rushed to the last moment before the city gate closed.
We have entered the fortress city.
In the city of Lantier.
A fortress city.
The countdown to Lantier's destruction has officially begun oshow7:
