Chapter 700 - We’ll Do It (2/2)

Those who stayed in the main plane were only the idlers such as Roland, the low-level battle players, and the casual players.

Roland thought for a moment and asked Li Lin. “Do you want me to take you back?” Li Lin waved his hands. “That’s unnecessary. We’re traveling anyway. This is a nice place to visit. I’m told that the girls here are quite skilled.”

Roland covered his head. “You’re doing this again. Didn’t you say that you would be sick of women for a long time?”

“It’s been four months since we talked to girls,” said Li Lin rather pitifully.

His other friends put on weird smiles too.

“Okay then. Have fun. I’m leaving.”

“Don’t be so hasty. Let’s hang out together.” Li Lin reached his hand for Roland. “We won’t tell the queen.”

Roland ran even faster.

He returned to Delpon with Long-Distance Teleportation and went to the Guild of Mercenaries, the Guild of Assassins, and the Guild of Bards.

He gave them a huge number of gold coins and asked them to investigate the wolf-masked men and the undead for him.

He wanted them to tell him everything they found.

You want to see who’s more influential? I have as many connections and friends as you do.

Then, Roland went to the capital of Delpon.

He found Antis at the city gate.

This dude was even more attractive, or rather, feminine, than before.

Wearing an advanced white leather armor, he crossed his arms before his chest and looked at Roland. “How rare. I didn’t expect to see a man as busy as you.” “It’s been a long time.”

“Yes, we haven’t met since a year ago.” Antis heaved a sigh.

Roland asked rather curiously. “Why are you still watching the city gate? Has the king not promoted you?”

“Our family already has the highest rank of nobility. It’s not like I can be promoted to a king, can I?” Antis clicked his tongue. “Besides, it isn’t bad to watch the gate. I get to see a lot of interesting stuff.”

“I’m here because I have a favor to ask,” said Roland.

“I knew that you wouldn’t visit me for no reason.” Antis seemed rather frustrated. Together with his slightly pouting pink lips and his slim body, he would impress anyone as a woman who had been wronged by her lover.

Roland felt rather creeped out, but he kept smiling. “Just give me a hand. You won’t be working for me for nothing.”

“What do you want me to do?”

“Help me investigate some people.”

While Antis looked at him in surprise, Roland told him what happened.

In the end, he added, “In any case, the royal family wouldn’t want to see an organization that sells human organs to grow big, would it?”

After a brief silence, Antis said, “In fact, we’ve received reports on the matter too. Many lords claimed that a lot of bodies whose chests were emptied were found on their territory. But then, they sent letters saying that they were mistaken and that those whose internal organs disappeared were all beggars who were killed by beasts in the wilderness, so nobody looked into the matter again.” “Why didn’t you investigate it?”

“They didn’t want us to do that.” Antis shrugged helplessly. “They can administer their territory as they see fit as long as they don’t betray the crown.”

Roland clicked his tongue. “So many lords chickened out. This must be a very powerful group.”

“We weren’t too worried before.” Antis thought for a moment and said, “But if what you said is true, we’ll have to pay more attention. Don’t worry, we’ll investigate it. You can look into the matter too. We can exchange information later.”

“No problem.” The two of them chatted with each other for a while longer and then parted.

Antis, however, looked at Roland’s back and seemed rather lonely.

After he returned to Delpon, Roland kept wondering if there were any other people who could help.

In fact, it would be best to leave a bounty on the forum.

However, considering that there seemed to be players in that group, he might alarm the enemy if he were to post it on the forum. As he thought on and on, he did come up with an organization that might help.

“The Phoenix Guild.”

He flew to Wetland City and found the Phoenix Guild’s base in the woods. He visited Solisa.

It was possible that the male players hung around with the dead, but chances were slim that the beautiful girls who focused on Charm would love the company of bodies.

“The famous Master Mage is asking for our help.” After hearing what Roland came for, Solisa widened her eyes and burst into delighted laughter. “How rare. Wait, I have to make a video recording of this.”

“This is a secret mission that must not be disseminated,” said Roland casually.

“Fine.” Solisa helplessly turned off the camera system. “Why did you come to us? You should know that the girls aren’t good at PVP.” “I don’t need you to fight. You only need to help me find them from the forests of Hollevin.” Roland explained, “Most of them fight by controlling the bodies of the dead with their foul abilities. You have unicorns that naturally loathe the undead and evil creatures. They can smell them from kilometers away. So, I think you’re very suitable for the search mission.”

Solisa was quite satisfied with Roland’s theory. “Exactly. The Elven Summoners are a righteous and gorgeous class… Then, how much are you willing to pay?”

Her eyes were filled with golden light.

“Three hundred gold coins for your activities.” Roland paused for a moment and continued, “If you find their nest, I’ll pay you five hundred more gold coins in a year.”

That was so much money!

Solisa quickly stood up and patted her chest hard. “We’ll do it!”
