Soul echo

Chapter 58 Upgrade
The style of Skupi's Adventurer's House is different from Serdica's solemnity and majesty, and the colors are more colorful. Even though the main building does not look much different, the overall feeling is completely different and more lively. More vitality.

This city seems to have no belief in primitive gods. When Zhong Ye walked on the street, all he heard were 'may the mother of abundance bless your children', 'bless the great craftsman', 'under the witness of the eyes of wisdom' .

These words can also be heard in cities where primitive gods are the main beliefs, but in Skupi, Zhong Ye has never heard the names of 'Supreme Light' and 'Blue Blessing'.

People worship the goddess of family, the god of forging, the god of business, and other gods of faith, and are not interested in primitive gods such as the sun god and the moon god.

——It’s really an interesting city.

Belief in primitive gods is not widespread. Most people believe in gods who have been promoted by human beings. They hold priesthoods that are closely related to people's life. Belief in them is more beneficial than believing in primitive gods.

Standing in front of the Adventurer's House, Zhong Ye heard the chattering voices inside, but it was not as noisy as Serdica's side.

Skupi's Adventurer's House also has a receptionist waiting at the door, and the receptionist's attitude is more enthusiastic than Serdica's receptionist.

Skupi's receptionists are all women. Since the Adventurer's House dares to let women serve as receptionists, it will naturally have corresponding safeguards-several retired adventurers who have been 'rehired'.

This is why Zhong Ye feels that Skupi's Adventurer's House is not as noisy as Serdika's. Although not all retired adventurers are powerful, the adventurers and mercenaries who can be recruited by the Adventurer's House It must have some strength.

When he came to Skupi and saw the black-smoky factory outside the city, Zhong Ye finally remembered that the background of "Echo of Soul" was "approximately equal to the first industrial revolution".

Seeing professional women at the Adventurer's House made Zhong Ye wonder what the Etrul Essence Area and other countries in the Westland looked like.

After checking in, Zhong Ye asked the receptionist: "If I remember correctly, you should be able to register and report valuable information here?"

Hearing this, the receptionist widened his eyes, stared blankly at Zhong Ye for a while, and then hurriedly raised his hand to guide.

"If you have any information of great value, please leave the hall through that door, then turn left and enter the reception room at the end of the corridor."

Zhong Ye nodded his thanks to her and left the front desk.

There are two doors in the reception hall, one is the main entrance and the other is the back door. Through the back door, one enters a corridor. The stairs leading to the second and third floors are on the right side of the corridor.

One side of the corridor is close to the reception hall, so there are no rooms, and the other side is the office of the staff of the Adventurer's House, but not many outsiders know what those offices are for.

Turning left and walking to the end, Zhong Ye knocked on the door.

After the sound of "Please come in" came from the room, Zhong Ye opened the door and walked in.

There are no extra decorations in the room, only a set of tables and chairs, which looks very simple.

There was an old man sitting behind the table, and when he saw Zhong Ye coming in, he opened the notepad in front of him, opened the lid of the ink bottle, and let the tip of the pen be stained with ink.

"Please sit down."

Zhong Ye put the weapon and luggage by the door, walked across to the old man, opened the chair and sat down.

The old man lowered his head and raised his glasses, "May I ask if there is anything you need to register?"

"The Adventurer's House has a channel that can directly deliver important information to nobles and churches. I hope to use this." Zhong Ye said in a deep voice.

Hearing these words, the old man had no choice but to raise his head, astonishment appeared in his eyes.

"Who are you? How do you know this?"

The question blurted out, but as soon as the words fell, the old man shook his head again, "No, it doesn't matter who you are, and it doesn't matter how you know about it—what matters is what you want to say!"

——I saw it from the official email, they have poured out the details of the Adventurer's House verbatim.

It is impossible for Zhong Ye to say this kind of thing. The Adventurer's House probably doesn't know that its immediate boss is actually a god.

"Do you know 'subterranean cavities'?"

Zhong Ye took out the map and spread it out on the table.

After a glance, he turned the map over so that the old man could see the map clearly.

Draw a big circle between Serdica and Skupi with your fingers, Zhong Ye pointed to that area, and said: "In this place, we found a huge underground cavity, I don't know how big it is, it looks like It is an underground world, and there seems to be a complete ecosystem in it..."

"A new underground cavity?" The old man nodded, "This is also valuable information, but we don't need to use that channel yet."

However, he saw the adventurer in front of him shaking his head.

"I took a mission to escort a caravan in Serdika. Not long after following them to leave Serdica, I encountered a group of goblins. They were quickly dealt with by us, but after that, we failed to Find out where their tribe is."

The old man listened patiently, and when Zhong Ye paused, he interrupted and said, "In autumn, this is normal."

"It's really normal." Zhong Ye responded, "But after that, we walked for a few days and came to a mountain village. I found traces of goblins around, and there, I found an underground cavity—we tracked the entrance of the underground cavity found by the goblins!"

"...that's ridiculous."

The tip of the pen touched the notepad, and the ink smeared on the paper.

The old man did not write a letter for a long time, but he did not put down the pen either.

"If it's really absurd, you wouldn't think of that, would you?"

After asking back, Zhong Ye added: "We tracked down, but we couldn't find the group of goblins in the passage leading from the entrance to the underground cavity, and there is no fork in that passage, so it is impossible for the goblins to hide in the passage. It took us about ten minutes to pass through that passage, and the entrance of the underground cavity is a few mountains away from the mountain forest where I found the goblin trace—do you think that if it was a goblin who went out on patrol, he would go that far?"

The old man was silent for a long time, and let out a foul breath.

Tear off the page soaked in ink, pick up a pen and write slowly on the notepad.

Zhong Ye sat opposite and waited silently, watching the old man keep dipping some ink and writing, and carefully wrote several pages of reports.

"...I will submit these reports."

After finishing writing, the old man put down the pen, moved his fingers, and looked at Zhong Ye solemnly, "But I can't guarantee whether the above will accept it."

Zhong Ye stood up and bowed his head, then picked up his bag and walked out of the reception room.

What he can do has been done, and what to do next depends on the reaction of the nobles and the church.

——It’s impossible for him to explore the entire underground cavity alone, right?

That's not his job, and that kind of big project can't be done by himself.

Carrying the luggage and coming to the guest room, Zhong Ye was finally free to count the harvest.

Along the way, perhaps because of [Affinity Physique], no wild animals would take the initiative to attack him, so that he did not personally experience the horror of "autumn" in Macedonian Province, but in the reception hall, he saw many people with Injured adventurer.

However, he was hunting for food along the way, and after beheading those bandits, he happened to gather the soul fragments needed to upgrade.

It wasn't until this moment that he realized that killing human beings could also get soul fragments—not counting Nemo, he was a follower of the Lord of Pleasure, a cultist despised by the gods.

Fortunately, the system has restrictions on players. Unless they suffer from subjective and malicious attacks, players cannot attack the aborigines.

Otherwise, with the player's lawless and unscrupulous personality, it is very likely that he will commit mass killings.

Although in the eyes of most players, "Echo of Souls" is real enough that the aborigines can arouse their empathy, but some players will equate "Echo of Souls" with other games, and NPCs are part of their game experience , whatever they want to do.

Players are people who have fun. If it is not for fun, no one will play games, but in everyone's eyes, the point of fun is different.

Zhong Ye put his attention into the panel, and the level became blurred——

[Level up, the current level is Warrior (Level [-]), get a skill acquisition opportunity, and there are [-] soul debris remaining]
