117: Come to the Adventurer's Association, the mission hall
It was midnight.
Ron browsed through the intelligence, calculating the time.
"By the time the Saar Family discovers Gevas is missing and realizes something is wrong..."
"If the plan goes smoothly, the Saar Family will already be too preoccupied to care..."
Ron chuckled lightly, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.
Gevas's death now posed no threat to his plan whatsoever.
So, after a final glance at the name Gevas,
Ron dismissed it and continued to look at the intelligence below.
The second piece of intelligence showed that Beruke also possessed a four-star offensive weapon.
Ron's face remained unperturbed upon seeing this, as he had already anticipated it.
Four-star Alchemy items were rare and precious, even in Kura City.
However, for Beruke, who came from the Thieves' Guild headquarters and had a fifth-tier Knight-realm father,
possessing two or three four-star Alchemy items was perfectly normal.
"Hmm? Monterey did this too?"
Ron's eyes flashed, and then the corners of his mouth curved upwards.
"In that case, the Adventurers' Association, which is the most difficult to deal with, will actually be the easiest to resolve..."
Previous intelligence updates also contained information about the Adventurers' Association and Monterey.
However, they were all rather bland, without much useful content.
But this time, if the intelligence was used properly,
at the very least, it could prevent him from causing any trouble to his plan.
"There's also the Mages Association, and a few nobles..."
Ron's eyes narrowed slightly as he looked at the remaining pieces of intelligence, a ripple in his heart.
Although Mirar's diary recorded many sordid affairs among the nobles,
with the added benefit of this insider intelligence, he could deal with these noble families even better.
After a moment of contemplation, Ron confirmed that his plan had no loopholes.
He then continued to cultivate his meditation technique to improve his strength.
Time flew by, and it was the next day in the blink of an eye.
Inside the Thieves' Guild's sewer base.
Ron appeared, this time entering through the main entrance.
"Vice President."
In the office, Beruke stood up and nodded towards Ron.
"I've already arranged everything you assigned yesterday."
"Now, Pete and Clay are outside. Should I let them in to report on the situation?"
Beruke said, and Ron nodded in agreement.
"Good, let them in."
Half a minute later, Pete and Clay came before Ron.
"Sir Vice President, after we received the order yesterday, we immediately took our brothers to investigate."
Pete took out a document and handed it over, saying.
"This is a list of external liaisons for the six great noble families, the Three Great Churches, and several other major forces..."
At this moment, Ron listened to Pete's narration while flipping through the document.
Because they had only had one day since receiving the order,
the intelligence in the document was not very detailed.
However, everything Ron wanted to know was recorded without a single omission.
"Very good, you two may leave first."
Ron nodded with satisfaction and casually instructed.
Pete and Clay acknowledged the order and left. Now, only Ron and Beruke remained in the office.
At this point, Beruke eagerly asked,
"Uz, what's next?"
Ron chuckled lightly at his words.
"Now that everything is ready, we naturally proceed according to the plan!"
Hearing this, Beruke immediately became somewhat excited.
"Good, good, good! Then I'll let you command me from now on!"
An hour later.
Inside the reception hall of the Adventurers' Association.
At this moment, more than a dozen Apprentice Knights stood before a large mission board, browsing relatedDelegation information.
[The Potion Masters Association has issued a Tier 2 commission quest, requiring more than ten Six-Leaf Lan Grass. For specific information and mission rewards, please inquire at the front desk receptionist.]
[The Alchemist Association has issued a Tier 3 commission quest, requiring one hundred jin of Purple Blood Mountain ore. For specific information and mission rewards, please inquire at the front desk receptionist.]
[The noble Alger Family has issued a Tier 1 commission quest, requiring five Apprentice Knights for an escort mission. For specific information and mission rewards, please inquire at the front desk receptionist.]
[Wolf King Knights...]
[Mages Association...]
"Hmm? A Tier 1 escort mission?"
A few high-ranking Apprentice Knights' eyes lit up when they saw the commission quest issued by the Alger Family.
They were all seasoned adventurers, rich in combat experience, extremely skilled in wilderness survival, and very familiar with the road conditions of the surrounding major cities.
Therefore, for them, an escort mission, which was extremely difficult for newcomers,
was a piece of cake.
The few exchanged glances, each seeing the eagerness in the other's eyes.
So, after a brief discussion, they went together to the front desk to find the receptionist for detailed inquiries.
After a while, after listening to the receptionist's explanation and carefully considering, they accepted the mission.
As these few left the front desk, two figures happened to walk directly towards them.
"Hello, gentlemen, what commission quest would you like to accept?"
The receptionist said with a smile, her attitude very polite.
At this moment, the two people opposite looked up, and the receptionist was momentarily stunned.
The person in the lead wore a mask, engraved with a diamond, a moon, and dark clouds.
He stood there motionless, like a statue, and one couldn't even hear him breathe.
The follower beside him had a stern expression and a powerful aura, clearly a strong individual above the Just Knight rank.
Even though the receptionist had worked here for several years and was quite experienced,
this was the first time she had encountered such a peculiar combination.
"Hello, I heard that your Adventurers' Association is recruiting new top-tier adventurers?"
At this moment, the person in the lead spoke, his tone calm and indifferent.
These two were precisely Ron and Beruke.
"Yes, sir. If you are interested in joining our Adventurers' Association,"
"then please fill out the form. After approval, you can become a member of our Adventurers' Association."
The receptionist said, simultaneously taking out two forms.
They contained basic information such as name, age, address, strength realm, preferred missions, and so on... At this point, the receptionist struck while the iron was hot and continued to introduce,
"You two may not know, but our Kura City Adventurers' Association branch is very powerful."
"Currently, we have over five hundred registered members, including over one hundred and fifty official members, all of whom are above the Apprentice Knight level..."
Seeing the receptionist's endless chatter, still wanting to continue,
Ron raised a hand to stop her.
"Alright, I understand. You don't need to introduce anymore."
"If possible, I would like to speak with your branch's person in charge privately. Is that alright?"
