Since the establishment of the Neutral Land, there has been an emerging trend in the human world. The demigods who stand at the top of the power of living beings, possess the strongest force in the world are willing to concentrate on this emerging territory where no emperors and kings are pointed at, no open and hidden guns and arrows, and no weak ordinary creatures are afraid of hatred due to fear of power. Among the six demigods existing in the human race (including Kyle, who seems to be unknown to the outside world), four of them are now settled in a small neutral land.
The Adventurer Guild, located in the southern part of the City of Knowledge, is the headquarters of all Adventurer Guilds in the entire Yara world. The president of the Adventurer Guild is generally designated by the previous president. In addition to factors such as character and morality, the most demanding requirement is strength. In a neutral place, as the three large guilds dominated by the three major cities, whether it is the Mercenary Union, the Hand of the Shadow, or the Adventurer Guild, the hardware conditions for becoming the president are the same, and they have the strength of a demigod.
The president of this generation of Adventurers Guild is named Odin Torrol, a human being, the latest one among the demigods in the world today. Before he took over as the president of the Adventurers Guild thirty years ago, he was a legendary adventurer who had been scattered in the lost jungle of the elves territory in the north for many years. His reputation was quite famous in both the elves and the human world. Shortly after he advanced to the demigods thirty years ago, he was appointed as the trust president by the previous president before his death. At the same time, he also took over as the lord of the City of Knowledge as the city lord.
Thirty years have passed, and the once handsome middle-aged ranger has now passed the 70-year-old pass and entered his twilight years. However, even at this age, Odin, who is in a high position, still falls into a busy work hell every day, and it is difficult to have a moment of free time. But today, the internal staff of the Adventurers Guild were surprised to find that the president Odin, who is difficult to see in normal times, suddenly appeared in the senior member hall, and there was no instructions. He just sat quietly in the hall, as if waiting silently.
The office of the Adventurer Guild is divided into four areas. The first area is the commissioned area, which is responsible for accepting various types of commissions. Any commission that wants to be issued to the Adventurer must be registered and evaluated in the commissioned area. Any adventurer who skips the guild and wants to directly accept the commission will be expelled from the guild once discovered and will never be accepted. In the long past, when the Adventurer Guild was just established, many adventurers are very resisting the guild's forced acceptance of commissions and withdrawing 5% of the management fee, but time proves
The guild's behavior is reasonable. After the guild's unified evaluation and grading, adventurers have an intuitive understanding of the danger of the task before accepting the task. They can measure their own strength and the difficulty of the task, which directly leads to a significant decrease in the mortality rate of adventurers. At the same time, when the client conceals danger or provides false information, the huge adventurers guild will also negotiate with the client. Adventurers are no longer a vulnerable group with single power, so this behavior of the guild has gradually been accepted by adventurers.
The second area is the member area, with two halls of nearly 10,000 square meters, including the task acceptance area, the new member registration area, and the member business acceptance area. However, even with such a huge space, the environment in the hall every day can still be described as crowded and noisy. A large number of middle and low-level adventurers gathered in the two member halls, observing the tasks constantly refreshed on the crystal information sign. Once you find the task you like, you can rush to the task acceptance area as soon as possible to book the task. Within one day after the reservation, the task cannot be booked again by other teams. During this period, the adventurers who have booked the task can learn more about the task details and spend sufficient time to consider it. If you confirm acceptance, you will need to pay a 10% breach of contract deposit, which is prepared for compensation for the client when the final task fails or the task is abandoned.
As for the third area, it is the most enviable area in the eyes of low-level adventurers. The advanced member area is only the area where silver-level and gold-level adventure groups can enter. The Adventurer Guild has strict restrictions on high-level adventure groups. It must have at least one member of the Golden-level and above strength, and complete a certain number and difficulty task, so that the team is qualified to be promoted to the Silver-level team, while the Golden-level adventure group must have at least one legendary member to be promoted. Few teams are willing to make false statements on this, because past facts have proved that it is safe for their own team.
The most irresponsible behavior. The environment of the senior member area is simply a paradise compared to the ordinary member area. The space here is not large, less than 2,000 square meters, the real hall is only 200 square meters, and the remaining space is fifty small single rooms of about 20 square meters. There is a good sound insulation array on the walls of the single room. When you close the door, you can't hear the conversation inside. In each single room, there is a small crystal slab constantly refreshing the task, and there are experienced guild staff ready to handle task procedures for senior members one-on-one at any time.
The last fourth area is the internal office area of the guild, where all senior guild staff work.
Walking into the guild, Catherine and Penis walked towards the senior membership area with envious or jealous eyes of many adventurers coming and going. After verifying their identity at the entrance of the senior district, they disappeared from the gaze behind them without any obstacles.
"Huh?" As soon as I entered the advanced area, Catherine exclaimed and looked at the old man sitting on the seat in the hall: "That person should be the president. I remember seeing him once, but I always feel strange."
"What's wrong?" Panis saw the old man in casual clothes, his pupils slightly contracted, his glasses narrowed slightly, and he showed a strange smile.
"It's nothing, it just gives me a strange feeling. I can't explain that feeling clearly, it's just a very light... Anyway, it's similar to what you've given me recently." Catherine frowned, unable to think of a word to describe her feelings: "It's completely indescribable."
"Your feelings are very sharp." Panis spread his hands: "I just don't feel anything."
Catherine glanced at Penis and shook her head: "Forget it, let's go in, maybe it's my illusion."
"You go, I'll take a walk here. Those people outside envy us so much. This is definitely a good place." Panis made a foolish expression and looked around.
"Okay okay." Catherine sighed angrily: "Remember the morning agreement, don't cause trouble for the people around you, don't turn yourself into selfishness. You have to know..."
"Stop." Panis crossed his arms and drew a big cross: "I finally understand Lina and Vivian's horror. Go quickly. After a while, the good tasks have been taken away, and you will have no money to make money. Gold coins, cute gold coins, are about to fly away, why don't you go quickly."
"I found that after you joined, I rolled my eyes more in a day than in the past year." Catherine said, rolling her eyes at Penis again before turning around and leaving.
Watching Catherine walk away, Panis turned around and walked as if nothing had happened to sit down next to the chair beside the old man who was strangely described by Catherine. Since Panis came over, the old man's eyes have been focused on Panis. Until Panis did it, the old man spoke in the ghost-like eyes of several nearby waiters: "Hello."
"You're good, too." Penis nodded.
"My name is Odin." The old man said, stroking his beard, "Odin Torrol."
"I guessed it." Panis smiled faintly: "My name is Panis now."
The old man didn't say anything anymore, but just watched Panis pick out an unknown fruit from the snacks prepared for senior members on the table and chewed it. He was not dragged down by the busyness at all. Until Panis finished eating the fruit, he didn't speak again.
"Okay, you win, she's coming back soon." Panis sighed: "Are you here to find me?"
"Yes." The old man nodded.
"Is there something wrong?"
"No." The old man shook his head and denied: "Just come to see you."
"Look at me?" Panis pointed to his nose and waved to the waiter standing beside him, "Hey, beautiful lady, do you have a mirror?"
"Ah?" The waiter stood beside the mysterious president and was at a loss. When he heard Panis's question, he nodded silly and took out the small hand mirror for makeup. Panis took the mirror and looked at him for a long time, and said in confusion: "I didn't realize that I have become beautiful recently, why should I look at me?"
"Haha." Odin smiled twice and adjusted his mindset before saying, "I'm here to see you by a teacher."
"Teacher? I think, I think, a neutral place, a capital of knowledge." Panis frowned and thought for a while, his eyes lit up, and he snapped his fingers: "I understand, a little green-skinned liar."
"Ahem, sorry, maybe that's what you call Mr. Christo, but that's my commander." Odin coughed a few times.
"I'm sorry." Panis restrained the joke on his face and apologized seriously: "I shouldn't call him that in front of you, I'm sorry."
Odin nodded and accepted Penis' apology: "However, the difference between you and Mr. Christo is very different, and you have more personality than what he described."
"If there is no difference, I may still be struggling to live a life in Kanzier or an unknown town. If there is a difference now, it means I have found the direction." Panis smiled casually and said in a stressful tone: "I've come out."
"Indeed, you found the direction." Odin said with a little respect: "Everyone felt it at that time, congratulations."
"Christo wants to see me, why don't you come by yourself?" Penis asked strangely.
"He doesn't know if you are willing to see him now." Odin replied, "Mr. Christo said that if you are willing to see him, you will naturally go to see him. If you are unwilling to see him, it will be bad to meet him."
"Well, it's better not to see you first." Panis thought for a while and decisively denied what he had just said: "It seems that I haven't fully come out yet, huh, not yet."
Odin's face showed a little disillusioned entanglement. He touched his beard and didn't know how to speak. Fortunately, Panis rescued the situation in time: "You have seen me, are there any other problems?"
Odin said a little nervously: "There is another question. I want to ask you, you have come out and changed now, are you still the one you in the past?"
Panis narrowed his eyes and looked at Odin with a smile: "This problem is probably not Christo's problem, but yours, aren't you very worried?"
"Yes." As a generation who grew up listening to the legendary stories of heroes in the Battle of Return of the Dead more than a hundred years ago, Odin directly admitted his worries without any disguise in front of Panis.
"You should know that people like us, who have come to this point, change no matter how their personality, hobbies and behaviors change, but here." Panis pointed to his left chest: "It's very difficult to change here, no one is exceptional, so do I."
