Fooling Tomoko into being a system

Li Lin and Priestess agreed instantly, which made the receptionist feel a little guilty, but she really didn't have any suitable candidates, and it would take a lot of time to recruit adventurers from adventurer guilds in other villages and towns. Now was the time to race against time.

After all, no one knows to what extent the insect infestation in the sewers has spread. Maybe villages and towns may be dug out tomorrow or tonight.

The uneasiness and guilt on the face of the counter lady happened to be seen by Li Lin, "If you really feel sorry, then help me get more rewards for investigating the insect tide. Priestess and I are so poor that we are almost unable to eat."

"Of course, no problem. I will definitely give you the most generous reward," the counter lady then blessed: "I hope you can complete the entrusted task safely."

"This is not natural. We will not die in the sewers. What do you think, Priestess?"

Priestess: "Yes."

"There is a very important question now, which affects whether Priestess and I can complete the mission!"

Counter lady: "What is it, please tell me?"

"Can I ask the lady at the counter to give us some money first to help us with the emergency? The compensation we agreed on before, we have no money in hand, and we need new weapons, healing potions, detoxification potions before entering the sewers..."

The lady at the counter looked at Li Lin and Priestess. They were wearing strange helmets and rumored to be strange black clothes. They didn't even have a piece of hard leather armor on their bodies, and they didn't have daggers, daggers, throwing knives, or even more in their waists. I didn't see the adventurer suit.

Priestess still had at least a scale staff in her hand that was about to be scrapped, but Li Lin didn't even have a dagger in his hand or waist.

She clearly remembered that Li Lin and Priestess had 10 gold coins in their hands. Logically speaking, they could not afford to buy weapons. The lady at the counter could only guess based on experience that when the two of them escaped from the sewers, the newly purchased weapons fell into the sewers. .

This is very common among new adventurers. They often lose their weapons for various reasons. They have never broken or lost their weapons, and they are embarrassed to say that they are intermediate adventurers.

A person like Li Lin is considered very lucky to be able to return alive after losing his weapon. As long as a person is still alive, anything is possible. Maybe the next gold-level adventurer will be you?

More adventurers lost their lives and weapons.

"Please wait a moment, we'll do it right away!" After knowing the reason for the lack of money, the counter lady took out a pen and paper and lowered her head to record it.

In fact, this is not in line with the normal compensation process. The lady at the counter records the compensation in advance, and uses her own money to advance it to Li Lin to buy new weapons. After the compensation process is completed, the lady at the counter puts the compensation amount into her bag.

After completing the record, the counter lady also drafted a task delegation related to investigating the insect tide and gave it to Li Lin.

Seeing the lady at the counter lowering her head to draft a document, Li Lin used his peripheral vision to catch a glimpse of the contents on the paper: compensation file and investigation commission.

While waiting, Li Lin thought about why he agreed to the request of the counter lady.

There are many reasons. For example, Priestess will not turn a blind eye to the dangers that occur in villages and towns. This is due to her character. Li Lin has long agreed with Priestess to continue cleaning up rats in the sewers. This place is most suitable for Priestess to grow up.

Moreover, this investigation task can be completed together with the task of cleaning up rats in the sewers. One task has double rewards, so why not take it?

The current insect tide in the sewers is very dangerous for other adventurers, but Li Lin is different. He has how to effectively avoid the insect tide, and he also knows the weaknesses of the insect tide. As long as he takes measures, the insect tide is not difficult to solve, and at least survival is not a problem. .

After receiving the compensation from the lady at the counter, Li Lin planned to return to modern society and get a super bright light, a bright light that can blind people's eyes. With a strong light, what big sewer cockroaches are there to be afraid of?

The brightness of the "holy light" used by the Priestess was not very strong. In Li Lin's eyes, it was not even as dazzling as the high beams of some cars. Since the brightness of the "holy light" was useful for large cockroaches, strong lights were definitely more convenient.

As long as we have strong lights, Priestess and I can go freely in the sewers without fear of being chased by the insect swarm, and we can go wherever we want.

You can even use a strong light to drive away the insect tide, and still have the number of Priestess Miracles left. The strong light is much easier to use than "Holy Light".

The task of investigating the insect infestation in the sewers is closely related to me. I just paid two gold coins for rent to the temple. If the insects and rats dig up the sewers, won't the two gold coins' rent be wasted?

About 5 minutes later, the lady at the counter finished writing the compensation record, took out five gold coins from her pocket and pushed it to Li Lin, "These are five gold coins, compensation for the danger caused by the guild's wrong information."

Li Lin accepted five gold coins. The pistol can no longer be used in the sewers. At least now he has money to buy a handle crossbow. Can he give Priestess a one-handed hammer and a shield or just exchange for a war hammer?

At that time, depending on the price of the weapon, these five gold coins may not be enough.

Seeing Li Lin accept the gold coins, the counter lady handed the newly written task commission to Li Lin, "This is a commission related to the investigation of sewer insect infestation. Please read the content first and confirm it."

Li Lin opened the task commission, and Priestess also raised her head to watch.

It contains the judgment of completing the task, which requires investigating the source of the sewer insect tide, the location of the nest, more weaknesses,... and a series of detailed divisions.

During the decentralization process, a piece of data about the Big Black Insect was also given, which was said to be used to compare it with the insect tide currently discovered and to investigate the causes of mutation. Several templates were also written to correspond, such as the experiment of the magician, the erosion of the evil god, etc. Various comparative data such as the influence of the "Law of Death" and the conspiracy of the Demon King.

Li Lin was very interested in the big black insect data given by the guild.

"Name: Giant Cockroach"

"Category: Animals and Plants"

"Vitality: Strong"

"Move: Fast"

"Attack Mode: Melee-Bite"

"Special abilities: gregarious, dark vision, virus"

"Description: A huge flat insect over fifty centimeters in length. It mainly lives in sewers and eats filthy and unclean things. A small number of traces are found in forests and wild places. This monster is an omnivore and will eat everything."

Li Lin looked at the record and saw that the body size was over fifty centimeters. This description was very different from the bugs he saw with his own eyes. The sizes of the two did not match. Li Lin had already found some bugs smaller than fifty centimeters and under in the insect tide. There are giant cockroaches, and there are also giant cockroaches that are over one meter long.

The two acted together and did not kill each other. This was not in line with the animal law of the jungle.

When Li Lin lowered his eyes and saw the end of the commission, he found that the reward for completing the task was actually a full 20 gold coins!

Even Priestess gasped.

"Miss counter, is this task written incorrectly?"

Li Lin spread the commission on the table and pointed at the words "20 gold coins per reward".
