Chapter 1765 (1/2)
”Do you think I'm one of those people who get hurt accidentally because of the terrain?” I had no intention of accepting the girl's offer. The terrain of Westminster City is indeed very complex. The possibility of getting lost or injured due to terrain is very high, but I am not an ordinary person. If I can't even adapt to this change of terrain, how can I deserve the title of No.1 in the world?
The little girl seems to be following me today. After I asked, she immediately said, ”with your strength, of course, you won't get hurt because of a little terrain, but aren't you afraid of getting lost?”
I directly refused: ”I have the special equipment to identify the direction, the guide is really not necessary for me. You'd better go to someone else. Don't waste your time with me. ”
”But are you sure you can find the place you want to go with your own equipment? There is a magnetic field between the peaks here. Ordinary equipment is useless. ”
I nodded positively and said, ”I'm sorry, I really don't need a guide. If there's nothing else, please let me go.” I said and then moved to the side of a step, and then around the little girl out of the transmission hall, the little girl to see me walk past, appears very anxious, seems to want to stop me, but do not know how to speak. Of course, I saw all her movements, but I didn't say much.
This little beauty is definitely not an ordinary guide. Although I don't know why she wants me to hire her, one thing is certain. She was definitely not paid for the guide.
After leaving the transmission hall, I walked directly towards the north gate. The South Gate of Westminster is located at the lowest part of the city, while the north gate is at the top of the city. After leaving the north gate, there is a winding mountain road outside. If you go up here, you will meet a small platform not far away. There are three forks further north of the platform, two of which go up the mountain and the other is the entrance of a cave, but I don't know where they all go.
Although this platform is not big, there are many people. Near the entrance of the platform, there are rows of stalls, where some players sell all kinds of supplies and necessary equipment. Because the stall here is outside the city, there is no need to pay management fees to the system city, so the things on the stall are much cheaper than those in the city. Although many players didn't know there was a free market here, they bought the things they needed early in the city, but because the things here are really cheap, many players will stay here to buy some more things.
In addition to the people who set up stalls and buy them, there is also a large group of people at the exit of the platform, but they are divided into two camps. Among them, a camp with a large number of people has a lot of equipment and occupations. Obviously, they are players from other places. They should seek to form a team at the intersection. The group on the other side has a small number of people, but their professions are basically fixed in the two camps of archers and hunters. At first glance, they are local players. Judging from their performance, most of these people do a job with the little girl on the other side of the transmission hall, that is, the guide. However, in front of these people are real guides, and before that little girl is obviously with other intentions.
The reason why I refused the little girl before was that I saw her intention was not pure, so I firmly refused her guide work. But as far as the actual situation is concerned, I still need a guide. The job of guides is not just to lead the way, they are often also dangerous detectors. I don't know what skills I have, but I used to hire a swamp guide. It looks as like as two peas in the same marsh. The guide can tell me exactly where the hard ground is, and which place will sink in if I step on it. This is the experience of others. In addition, besides the terrain, the guide generally knows the local dangerous creatures. If you want to find some local animals and plants or investigate an area, hiring a guide can save a lot of time.
Because I understand the importance of a guide, I don't plan to go into the mountain alone. I didn't look for a guide in the city before. In addition to the reason of the little girl, there was also a player who was a guide at the entrance of the training area. I didn't have to look for a guide in the city.
The things on the stall are of no use to me, because of the Phoenix dragon space, my reserve materials are always available and need not be replenished at any time. Go straight through the stall area and walk to the middle of the group of guides. Before I open my mouth, the other party immediately encircles them. These people are doing business here all day long. Naturally, we can see which people want to ask for a guide. I come directly to this side, which is obviously the idea of hiring a guide.
”Excuse me, do you want to hire a guide?” Although the group gathered around, they didn't rush for business. It was obvious that they had a set of rules of their own to decide who would take over the business.
I nodded and asked, ”what is the scope of your work as a guide? I may need to run a little farther, but I don't want to run half way because the guide won't go back
One of the older members of the group of guides immediately replied, ”we have 1000 or 2000 guests here every day, so we have seen all kinds of strange requests. If you just need to run far away, there is no problem. However, in order to have a good time and avoid disputes later, you'd better arrange the service content with us first. ””Of course.”
”Well, then I'll ask you and answer. First of all, how to calculate the cost. Do you set the price or time at one time? ”
”Time it. I don't know how long it will take to get out. ”
The other party nodded and said, ”so the next question, are you alone or with a partner? Because there are more people and fewer people, the difficulty of leading a team is certainly different, so the cost will be different. If you have too many people on your team, we may even need more than one guide to work together. ”
”I'm alone, but I have a lot of summoning creatures. Does that count?”
”It doesn't matter if we're not responsible for the death of your calling creature.”
