Chapter 119: The reward for the secret realm is actually~
Oak Village.
Recently, there have been rumors that a treasure is buried here.
It attracted many adventurers.
Originally just a village that made a living by logging oak trees, it changed with the arrival of a large number of adventurers.
The village expanded, with new walls, taverns, and a lord.
Lord Tartarin of Oakwood is having some troubles.
There are too many adventurers, making village management a bit troublesome.
However, taxes have risen accordingly.
I received a full ten gold coins this month.
You should know that in the past, a small village like this could only collect one gold coin at most.
It increased tenfold.
Tatarin was also puzzled.
There really is treasure here.
If I were to dig up a treasure, wouldn't that be great?
He shook his head.
He then left his castle and went to the village tavern.
Oak Tavern was once just a gathering place for lumberjacks.
And with the arrival of a large number of adventurers.
This place has become the liveliest spot in the entire Oak Village.
Tatarin, as the lord, also enjoyed coming here to listen to the adventurers chat.
You never know when you might get some useful information.
Push open the tavern door.
The air was thick with the smell of heat, alcohol, and a sour, foul odor mixed with cheap spices.
"Hey."
"Lord of Tartarin, you've come here again to gather intelligence."
An adventurer not far away waved his beer and shouted.
"No, I'm here for a drink."
"Haha, Lord Tatarlin, when are you going to pay us back the intelligence fee you owe us?"
"Next time, next time for sure."
These damned adventurers demanded ten silver coins for information just because I told them a pack of wolves had appeared in the mountains.
Tatarlin was not wealthy to begin with, and this was practically the death knell for him.
So I kept putting it off until now.
The adventurers knew that Tatarin wouldn't give it to them; they were just joking about it.
Tatarin walked to the counter and ordered a glass of oak wine.
This wine, made from oak seeds, has a naturally fragrant aroma.
It has a slight stinging sensation in the throat after drinking, making it a favorite spirit among adventurers.
Feeling the stinging sensation of the strong liquor in his throat, he swallowed it down in one gulp.
My body immediately felt warm.
A blush appeared on her face.
The day's fatigue is completely relieved at this time.
At this moment, emboldened by the alcohol, Tatarin began to scrutinize the adventurers in the tavern.
Delin, the Redbeard Axe Warrior.
This guy is said to have barbarian blood; heaven knows which of his ancestors was taken by barbarians.
The man wearing a deerskin cap and touching the waitress is the thief Lil.
This guy is incredibly lecherous.
He sent all the money he earned to the tavern waitresses' homes.
God knows how he doesn't get tired of women who aren't particularly attractive.
However, this guy is good at gathering information.
He was the one who found the wolf pack earlier.
That ranger flashed gold in the corner.
He was an elegant fellow, and once a nobleman.
Unfortunately, there was no inheritance, so he had to leave the territory and become an adventurer.
His arrows were deadly.
Tatarin witnessed a giant bear being shot to death.
My gaze shifted, and just then...
The sight of several figures in the corner made him pause.
"them?"
"An adventurer I've never seen before."
Several adventurers whom we have never seen before suddenly appeared.
This made Tatarin somewhat wary.
"It's also for the treasure."
"Damn it, I hope it's not some kind of gang of thieves."
The village has no more than three hundred residents.
The outer perimeter is also made of wooden walls.
Only a few dozen militiamen were recruited.
They simply couldn't defeat the powerful band of thieves.
"No, I have to go ask."
Tatarin stood up, ready to walk over.
Suddenly, he saw the other person walking towards him.
"Greetings, Lord of Tartarin."
"My master wants you to come over."
Tatarin was stunned.
"Who?"
"Call me over."
"I am!"
Unfortunately, Tatarin had no chance to retaliate and was brought over directly.
"Boss Lin."
"I've found out everything."
"This is the lord of Oak Village."
"The first clue to our treasure lies with him."
Beside Lin Chuan was a boy with a youthful air about him.
He was the lord who invited Lin Chuan into the treasure-filled secret realm.
They are not very strong.
That's why they sought out Lin Chuan.
After entering the secret realm, the two teamed up and were immediately teleported together.
Following the mission's instructions, they found the oak village.
Here, we also found the Lord of Tatarlin.
Without alerting the adventurers around.
Tatarin was taken to the safe house in Linchuan.
The hood was lifted.
Tatarin saw a boy sitting with his legs crossed, looking at him from a distance.
The other one hid in the shadows.
"What do you want to do?"
This time, Tatarin's tone was noticeably softer.
When faced with an enemy you can't defeat, the best course of action is to compromise.
As long as the other party is happy, I can leave safely.
This is how Tatarlin survives.
Before becoming a lord.
Tatarin was also an adventurer.
He once nearly died in an underground city.
Fortunately, they escaped.
He also brought out many valuable items, which he sold and then used to buy Oak Village, becoming its lord.
Then came the prosperity of Oak Village.
The Tartarus of today is no longer the impulsive, adventurous youth it once was.
He knew what he should do.
"Have you been to the Magic Tower dungeon?"
Bai Ning said.
That is, the handsome young man next to Lin Chuan.
This guy was a genius teenager when he was on Earth.
He has an exceptionally high IQ.
After being teleported into the tower defense forbidden area, I was not used to it for the first few days and almost died.
Fortunately, he survived by sheer luck.
Initially, it was due to a lack of life experience, but it improved as people adapted to their environment.
With her high intelligence, Bai Ning began to integrate and gradually began to stand out.
Their strength is also improving step by step.
Only through tempering and refinement can a wise person transform from a rough diamond into a priceless gem.
That's exactly the kind of person Bai Ning is talking about.
He knew what he needed, how to seek help from stronger individuals, and, more importantly, how to treat those stronger individuals.
At this moment, Bai Ning placed himself in a very low position.
He took the initiative to assume the role of the younger brother.
After this question was raised.
Tatarin was taken aback at first.
Then she looked at Lin Chuan, who was standing in the shadows.
They seemed to be guessing the other person's identity.
"Don't overthink it, we're just adventurers trying to enter the Demon Tower dungeon."
"Tartarin, we need this treasure."
After these words were spoken, Tatarin was shocked once again.
"What...what treasure?"
Bai Ning was getting impatient.
"We've known all along that there's no treasure in Oak Village."
"The real treasure is the Demon Tower dungeon."
"The key is in your hands."
"You are also looking for the entrance to the dungeon."
"But unfortunately, the entrance isn't here."
You've come to the wrong place.
These words directly revealed the secret in Tatarin's heart.
The Demon Tower Dungeon, this most dangerous dungeon, is filled with all sorts of treasures.
What moved him most was the Fountain of Life.
If he can get into this place, he will be able to live a longer life.
In order to re-enter the dungeon, Tatarin has been spreading rumors of a treasure, hoping to find it for himself with the help of adventurers.
pity.
He miscalculated.
There are no entrances around Oak Village.
After a brief moment of surprise.
Tatarin asked.
"Where is the entrance?"
At this moment, his eyes were filled with longing.
"key."
There is only one key to enter the dungeon.
It's in Tatarin's hands.
"Take me with you, protect me, I only want to enter the Fountain of Life."
At this point, a task prompt appears.
Bai Ning looked at Lin Chuan.
After receiving permission, Bai Ning spoke.
"Can."
The contract was then reached.
Tatarin then produced a mark bearing the image of the moon.
"This... is the key to the Magic Tower."
Back in the day~
Tatarlin tells its story there.
Bai Ning then handed the key to Lin Chuan.
"Boss, the simplest one is done."
"Next comes the most difficult part."
"We must conquer the Demon Tower dungeon to obtain the final treasure."
"Based on my deduction."
"This time, the treasure reward is very likely to be a golden building!"
