"Hello, your highness the brave 'Hunter Earl'."
This middle-aged man with a red beard took the initiative to say hello.
"Excuse me..." Zhang Lang didn't know this person.
"My name is Gildeman!" Red Beard smiled and said: "You don't often come back to the imperial capital, so you may not know that I am a life-long baron who was granted the title not long ago..."
"Lifelong nobility is a title that cannot be hereditary!" Xu reminded in his mind: "It is usually awarded to individuals who have made outstanding contributions in the civilian class, but now it is basically donated. To put it bluntly, it means buying an official."
"Do you need to emphasize this kind of title?" Zhang Lang asked strangely.
"On this occasion, a hereditary baron himself is not very impressive. Telling you that he is a lifelong baron can at least show off his financial resources!" Xu analyzed: "The donations made by those who can be granted the title of baron generally exceed the wealth of an ordinary baron."
The conversation in his mind only lasted for a second, and Zhang Lang nodded superficially: "Nice to meet you!"
"My Goddess, it is my honor to meet you!" Gildeman said with a smile: "That's right, although I am only a lifelong noble, I have a lot of properties under my name and I still have some financial resources... It just happened that Did you hear 'Lord Earl' mention that he had killed the rat emperor in the sewers and entered the vast new world?"
Zhang Lang nodded: "Indeed!"
"Oh, that's great!" Gildeman smiled: "I am personally very interested in these mysterious things, especially the monster organs that His Majesty the King has offered bounties for! In this way, if the Earl can hunt a large number of monsters, I will Will buy it at twice the official reward price!"
Hearing this favorable price, Zhang Lang couldn't help but raise his eyebrows: "For collection, one of the same is enough, right?"
"Personal interests are different!" Gildeman said with a smile: "I especially enjoy the feeling of being surrounded by collections, and if I buy more, I can also choose the quality!"
"But I personally don't have much cash on hand right now. If you hunt enough materials, you can keep them for now. I will buy them all in a few days. The more the better!"
Zhang Lang nodded: "I will consider it!"
"Okay, okay!" Gildeman nodded and said, "Then I won't bother you!" After saying that, he turned and left.
"I've heard of this person!" Su Mingda whispered: "In the afternoon, he released the news and purchased several bounty materials from the sewer, which was twice the price! Someone did sell it to him and got gold coins. .”
"But I don't recommend trading with him...buying it at twice the price is too favorable! I have been in sales for so many years, and those who do this kind of thing must have some ulterior motives!"
Zhang Lang nodded: "If you show courtesy for nothing, you are either committing adultery or stealing!"
At this time, a notification suddenly came from Zhang Lang's badge!
The second level is confirmed to be open, and the time limit for all reincarnators to stay in the mission world will be increased by two days!
Not only him, but all the reincarnations in the city received this notice. After marveling that someone defeated Calest and opened the door to the lower level, some people were also surprised. Why is there no prompt to collect the 100 gold coins awarded to all members after killing the Rat Emperor?
…………
"really!"
In the main hall of a house next to the square in front of the palace, heroic reincarnators were redeeming rewards.
Probably to facilitate the reincarnations to receive their prizes at any time, the emperor set up an exchange office next to the square, and it was manned 24 hours a day and guarded by guards. As long as the loot was qualified, rewards would be given at that time!
After the heroes came back, Lei Lei took out a large amount of loot from the space equipment. The previous ones could be exchanged normally, but in the end, when he took out the head of "Calest", he was told that it was not. It’s not the rat emperor Calest, but a mutated red-eyed rat king!
Although there had been speculations for a long time, the moment it was confirmed, the heroes were still shocked!
Who made this world without photos? The reward orders are written descriptions and hand-drawn images. It is normal to admit the mistake...
"But since this is also a very dangerous and rare monster, you have brought the kill certificate. Although there is no reward, I can make an exception and give you a reward of 500 gold coins! The 1,000 gold coins should be exchanged for the real rat emperor's head. !”
said the official responsible for handing out the rewards.
A small official certainly does not have the power to make temporary decisions like this. It is most likely that the altar spoke through his mouth. It can also be seen from this that if you encounter this special elite monster, killing it will be beneficial even if there is no reward!
In addition to exchanging bounties, the heroes also reported intelligence about the second layer of desert. The moment this news was accepted, the news of the mission extension came on the badges of the reincarnators!
Regarding this, the official who issued the bounty paid more attention to it than when he gave the bounty before. He immediately asked people to go upstairs to find an old scholar and asked the heroes and the old scholar to describe in detail everything on the second floor. See and hear.
To be honest, the heroes didn't explore too deeply in the desert. There were not only monsters there, but also various quicksands, traps, and storms. The environment was very harsh. After a gust of wind, you couldn't even see your own footprints. I can't find my way back...
Therefore, what they could tell this old scholar was very limited.
But it was this limited information that allowed the old scholar to make a judgment!
The old guy brought out a thick book. After flipping through it, he said with certainty: "It's a multi-level underground palace!"
"Multiple levels of underground palace?" The heroes looked at each other. This is consistent with the mission name of "Nine Levels of Underground Palace"!
"It's not a real underground palace!" The old scholar looked through the ancient books: "It's a large-scale alien dungeon that randomly appears in the world. I don't know whether it was naturally formed or man-made. There have been many times in the history of the empire. Record! They appear without warning every time. The initial appearance is that monsters appear out of thin air and occupy some deep mountains or ruins. Generally, they have to wait for these monsters to spread and start attacking surrounding villages and passing caravans before they are captured by the empire. All you know!"
"But initially, it will only be regarded as an ordinary monster stronghold. It will not be until all the monsters are cleared out that you will see a gate in the deepest part of the stronghold, which can lead to a deeper alien world, with more terrifying monsters inside!"
"This kind of alien world has at least three levels, and the highest record is seven levels. But according to the responses of the warriors who explored it at the time, there should be more below, but they found a way to seal the door to the lower level, closing this underground palace forever! According to the records , if the final closure of the underground palace fails, the monsters in the underground palace will rush out after a certain period of time, bringing irreparable disaster to the nearby area!"
Hearing this, the reincarnators complained in their hearts: "This is probably the result of mission failure... But the highest record is only the seventh floor. Has no reincarnator ever reached the ninth floor before?"
The old scholar continued: "The first level of the underground palace usually coincides with reality, which is reflected in the appearance and occupation of a large number of monsters in a certain location in reality. The environment of each level below is random, but if there are more, there will always be Samples are available for reference!”
As he spoke, he opened the catalog: "There are more than twenty types of underground palace environments that have appeared so far. Most of them have appeared more than once. Which environment and which floor it appears on are all random... ...But what is certain is that the degree of danger in the underground palace will change with the number of layers! The deeper the layer, the greater the chance of high-level monsters appearing, and naturally the more dangerous it will be!"
Then, according to the catalog, he turned over the desert dungeon that was consistent with the description of the reincarnations: "Found it! It's here! The main monsters include sandworms, giant ant lions, voyeurs, etc... Well, it appears in the records There are more than twenty kinds of monsters that I have encountered, but if they appear on the second floor, the ten stronger ones should not appear...
"As for the gatekeeper monster, if it appears on the second floor, it should be a sandstorm lizard!"
The old scholar sighed and closed the book: "I didn't expect to encounter such an extraordinary situation. I immediately reported to His Majesty the Emperor and began to issue bounties in the desert underground palace. Warriors, you must find a way to close the door to the underground palace and send these monsters away. Go where they belong!”
