Chapter 11 First Steps into the Dungeon
"War Game!!"
Compared to the adventurers and guild staff who were too shocked to speak, the gods who often flirted with pretty young girls in the hall let out an excited roar.
For the gods who came down to have fun, this was one of their most exciting activities: two clans would compete against each other according to the rules they had set.
Upon hearing these words, it felt as if the gods were about to experience a surge of heat; their faces flushed red.
"Wait, my esteemed gods, please don't be so fanatical." Remer looked at the many gods as if they were about to put an end to this matter.
Remer was on the verge of tears. Had he not checked the almanac before leaving home today? He had ended up with such a mess. The other employees looked at him with sorrow in their eyes.
Remer looked at Ryu, "Miss Ryo, adventurer commissions can only be for things like monsters, materials, and rescues, not for offering bounties to adventurers."
In fact, the guild also offers bounties for some vicious criminals who endanger public order.
However, adventurer commissions and guild bounties are two separate systems with significant differences. The latter requires guilds to contribute funds, and guilds without military power are unwilling to provoke too many villains unless the person harms the guild's interests.
Otherwise, it's just a symbolic reward, with a reward amount so low that even a dog would shake its head at it.
Liu's 80 million Dharmali is neither a lot nor a little; it depends on who you compare it to.
The weapons wielded by the three leaders of the Loki Familia are each worth over a hundred million, but for other adventurers, they are undoubtedly a huge sum of money. Roy once helped a shop owner swindle people, managing to fool a bunch of LV.1 newbies with a Muramasa sword worth 500,000 falies.
Suddenly raising the bounty on the Rudraksha clan to 80 million fali would tempt even a level 5 adventurer.
Orario is likely to be a bloodbath.
Despite Remer's constant persuasion, Ryu remained unmoved. She was determined to kill the Rudra Familia, regardless of whether it was an adventurer's commission or a bounty.
"blast!"
Just as Remer was in a dilemma, a bloated and obese male elf trotted down from the second floor.
The elves in the hall looked away in disgust, and Ryu also forced herself to suppress her nausea.
Guild Master, Royman Madil!
As an elf, after gaining supreme power in the guild, he lived a life of extravagance, squandered money, discriminated against half-elves, and became obese due to overeating. He was cursed by countless people as "the guild's pig," which the elves considered a disgrace.
"We can add this money to the bounty on the Rudra family, but this is a special case, and it will not be repeated!" Royman said solemnly, trying to show his authority, but his exaggeratedly fat body, like a pig, only made him look ridiculous.
According to the rules, they cannot do this. The guild cares more about the impact. If anyone could add money to bounty missions, it would become an assassination list.
But since that expert has spoken, all rules have to take a backseat.
Royman looked at Ryu with a look of surprise and doubt. How exactly did Ryu manage to persuade the great god Uranus?
Having received a satisfactory reply, Liu left behind a note for 80 million fali and turned to leave.
Roy, who had been hiding in the crowd, also quietly disappeared.
But everyone knew that this turmoil had only just begun. The Rudra Familia had used some unknown means to destroy the Astrea Familia.
Even a weakened camel is bigger than a horse. What will be the final outcome of Astrea's counterattack?
Ryu and Roy met in a secluded alley, and she asked, "What do we do next?"
"wait!"
Roy replied that his plan was actually not complicated; it was Ryuta who underestimated the prestige of his own clan.
The Astrea Familia often fights against the strong and helps the weak, and together with the Ganesha Familia, they maintain order in Orario. They played a significant role in the "Great Struggle" two years ago.
Even five years later in the original timeline, during the great battle with Freya's Familia, the moment Ryu appeared, the residents and adventurers of Orario were moved.
After the entire clan was wiped out, he used the reputation accumulated by his clan to create a tragic persona and win everyone's sympathy.
With another 80 million Fali, the anger combined with the benefits would be enough to send the adventurers of Orario to besiege the Rudra Familia. The Rudra Familia would either be hunted down to death or agree to the War Game, allowing them to be eliminated in one fell swoop.
"I'll be going now!"
This plan needs time to develop, and there's nothing they can do for the time being. Roy waved his hand and left.
Where are you going?
Liu glared at him. If this bastard ran away, was she supposed to deal with the Rudra clan all by herself?
Roy turned slightly and smiled, "Don't think of me that way, I'm just going to the dungeon!"
"???" Watching Roy's dashing figure, Ryu realized she couldn't keep up with his train of thought, and she had to return to the Star Garden to report to the Goddess.
If Roy saw the elf girl's expression at this moment, he would definitely think of the old man, the cell phone, and the subway.
The guild headquarters wasn't far from the Tower of Babel, and Roy envisioned a spacious plaza.
Many people saw him and Ryu arrive at the guild headquarters. The Rudrak's clan didn't receive the news so quickly, so he still had some time to go to the dungeon and let loose his desires from the past ten years.
In theory, only adventurers who have registered with a guild can enter the dungeon, but generally speaking, no one would be foolish enough to go to the dungeon to die.
The Ganesha's Familia members, responsible for guarding the Tower of Babel and the entrance to the underground city, were too lazy to check each one.
Roy stood tall and proud, with the fearlessness of a newborn calf, much like a novice adventurer bursting with confidence after receiving divine favor.
The seasoned veterans around him smiled, already mentally calculating how long this fool would last.
Fortunately, Roy received a scabbard with the Village Good Sword he obtained from the system; otherwise, with a newbie holding a sword worth hundreds of thousands, it's hard to guarantee that no one would be tempted.
The member of the Ganesha Familia frowned, wanting to remind the other party, but in the end it turned into a sigh. People become numb after seeing this kind of thing too many times.
The moment Roy entered the dungeon, the childlike expression on his face vanished without a trace.
Although he had been in Orario for more than half a month, this was his first time entering the dungeon.
Things are different now. Thanks to the system's favor, I now wield the Village Sword, the Magic Sword, and Magic Boots.
Roy needs to go to the dungeon for a bit.
The first level of the underground city is a passage formed by stone walls, with light blue walls and ceilings that dominate the entire field of vision. This natural labyrinth, where the sky is invisible, stretches endlessly in all directions.
The stone wall was made of an unidentified substance resembling magic stone, emitting specks of phosphorescence that illuminated the surroundings like lamplight, making it as bright as day even without the sun.
Bang!Bang!Bang!
Suddenly, the wall in front of Roy shattered, and three or four goblins jumped out. They had green skin, sharp ears, and brown eyes that gleamed with ferocity.
He charged toward Roy.
