When the points are insufficient, the equipment will be deducted. When the deducted equipment cannot make up for the penalty points , it is determined that the player has failed the game!)

...

The white light in front of my eyes dissipated.

Qin Ran scanned the room he was in.

On the left hand side there is a square window, paneled.

At this moment, it is fully opened, but the warm sunlight from the west is still shining in, covering the room of about 10 square meters.

The room is not big, so apart from a single wooden bed, bedside table and a wardrobe, there is no more furniture.

His backpack was leaning against the closet. After checking, everything was not missing.

On the bedside table is a newspaper and a half-burned candle.

"No electricity."

"Or, electricity is not yet widespread."

Qin Ran glanced at the candle and picked up the newspaper.

Burr City Morning News.

T1891.7.22.

The first page of the newspaper told where and when he was.

In addition, Qin Ran read the newspaper carefully and discarded many useless news, and got a few valuable clues in Qin Ran's opinion.

"Gold Reappears in the Ancient City of Aesop"

"Gold Craze Reappearance"

"'Scholar' Herbert Indicates He Wants to Go to the Ancient City of Aesop"

"Herbert Recruitment: Guards to the Ancient City of Aesop"

...

And a few pieces of news summed up, that is, two.

First: There is gold in the ancient city of Aesop, which attracts many people

Second: In addition to inviting him to serve as a guard, 'Scholar' Herbert is also planning to recruit more people.

However, there are things that Kieran is more concerned about.

"Guard?"

"Heard of my fame?"

Qin Ran sat on the single bed, and subconsciously looked at the character column.

【Reputation: 10】

Obviously, this should have played a role.

"Is it better to integrate into the copy?"

Qin Ran looked at the recruitment information in the newspaper again.

Obviously, without this reputation, he would need to compete with more competitors.

And if it fails?

Mainline missions are not considered failures.

The main task this time is: to explore at least 20% of the ancient city of Aesop within four weeks. It is not specified who to explore with, and it is also possible to explore by yourself.

Therefore, even if the competition fails, the main task will not fail, but it will be greatly affected.

Because, for a player who only has a simple endowed memory and does not know more about the history, culture, and geography of any dungeon world, it is simply impossible to explore 20% of the ancient city of Aesop.

Unless the temporary language given by the system includes the language of the ancient city of Aesop.

However, from the experience of the temporary language obtained by Qin Ran, it is completely impossible.

Of course, this does not prevent Qin Ran, who has already joined the team of 'Scholar' Herbert, from learning more about the ancient city of Aesop and this dungeon world.

After all, in Qin Ran's heart, there was another guess.

"Is the ancient city of Aesop related to [Mysterious Knowledge]?"

This speculation is baseless.

Not even intuition.

It can only be said to be a hunch.

But if there is an opportunity to improve 【Mysterious Knowledge】, Kieran will not let it go.

Picking up his backpack, Kieran walked out of the room and walked towards the first floor.

The information in front of him makes it impossible for Qin Ran to judge whether there is such a facility as a public library, but Qin Ran believes that Herbert, who has the title of 'scholar', must have some books in his collection.

This is enough for Kieran.

And in fact?

The collection of books far exceeded Qin Ran's expectations.

Compared with the second floor which is full of guest rooms, except for a large reception room on the first floor, the rest is occupied by Herbert's study.

The reception room can only be called larger if it is compared with the guest room.

How old is it?

Can accommodate six or seven people!

Qin Ran sized it up and came to this conclusion.

more?

Sorry, I can only go to that narrow corridor.

Also, you cannot walk side by side.

You can only stand alone, and when you pass by someone, you have to turn sideways to get out of the way.

And this small space is only to make room for Herbert's collection of books.

If there is any convenience, it means that you will not get lost.

In such a large house, there is only one corridor, which is really a blessing for anyone with a sense of direction.

Walking from one end of the corridor to the other is Herbert's study.

A door was not closed tightly, allowing the sound of 'talking' in the study to spread far away.

At least, with his extraordinary perception, Kieran heard the voice clearly when he walked down the stairs.

Naturally, I can hear it more clearly now——

"leave here!"

"I don't welcome you hooligans and robbers!"

A slightly old, but full of spirit voice sounded.

"Rogue? Robber?"

"We are here to apply for guards!"

"Isn't this the news published by your Herbert University scholar?"

The young and flirtatious voice asked back with a smile.

"I published it!"

"But I'm hiring guards, real guards!"

"It's not a group of bastards who blackmail, rob, and do all kinds of evil!"

"Now, get out of here!"

"Otherwise, I'm going to call the police!"

Herbert warned the other party.

But that didn't help.

On the contrary, it caused the other party to laugh proudly.

"police?"

"You are quite a distance from the police station!"

"How many bones do you think you had to break before the police arrived?"

The other party said threateningly.

"Even if a few of them are broken, I won't hire you!"

Herbert didn't intend to back down at all, and faced each other directly.

"Don't you even care about this trip to the ancient city of Aesop?"

"Know that there is gold!"

After the other party threatened, it turned into a lure.

"The important thing in the ancient city of Aesop is not gold!"

"Besides, this is not the reason for me to compromise with you bastards!"

"I'd rather break a few bones than give you a penny!"

But regardless of coercion or temptation, Herbert never compromised.

Immediately, Kieran had a good impression of this 'scholar'.

Moreover, I was worried that those guys would become angry and cause unnecessary harm to Herbert, causing unnecessary impact on his main quest.

So, next moment.

Qin Ran raised his hand and knocked lightly on the door twice.

Boom, boom!

Then, push the door and enter.
