Chapter 223: Bay Territory's Adventurer Features

  The somewhat dazed Copperbeard, uhe gazes of many adventurers, ughed heartily as he pocketed the 1000 gold s.

  He shouted loudly:

  "Haha, I didn’t expect to be so lucky! Now I have ten years' worth of drinking money, burp~~"

  All the adventurers, eyes reddening, stared at the corpses of the Sky-Splitting Lizards being hauled up, but they had no thoughts about Copperbeard.

  The reason was simple: this dwarf adventurer from the Dark Underworld Dwarf Kingdom owerful high-tier warrior!

  Seeing the success of the first example, Beelzebub called out to the soldiers who had already been prepared.

  Then, they quickly analyzed the cause of death and tributions for the Sky-Splitting Lizards that were brought up.

  "This Sky-Splitting Lizard died due to two crossbow bolts pierg its chest. The reward will be split between them..."

  "Whose crossbow bolt has this mark? Bring your adventurer ID issued by the territory."

  "This Sky-Splitting Lizard wasn't killed uhe territory's defense mission, so it won’t qualify for the disted purchase price."

  "Everyoake a good look. The fatal blow was caused by a crossbow bolt shot by our Bay Territory soldiers. We found a space crystal, so each soldier gets an additional 3 gold s..."

  "Everyone, don't rush and don't think about lying."

  "See the golem behind us? That’s the Guardian Golem crafted by the esteemed Arist. It duct lie dete at any time!"

  "Our territory is very generous with adventurers, but those trying to take advantage will face severe punishment!"

  "..."

  These soldiers brought ihe record-keepers for tributions, specifically designated by the Bay Territory army.

  They accurately assigned ownership and bes for each Sky-Splitting Lizard.

  The already-excited adventurers, upon hearing the arras and distributions, were full of admiration.

  Occasionally, dissatisfied adventurers would be moved by their emotional expnations and on-the-spot demonstrations, like cutting open wounds to show proof...

  Besides this, they also subtly promoted the bes of being a soldier in the Bay Territory.

  Advog for everyoo follow the ws of the Bay Territory.

  "That way, you'll usually live well. Everyone earns money, and it’s safe too."

  "Cause trouble? The sequences will be disastrous!"

  "They definitely won’t be able to defeat our soldiers, and they certainly won’t be able to lie uhe Arist’s spells!"

  "As long as you all focus on adventuring without trying any underharicks, we’ll provide you with everything, from magical potions to ented equipment."

  "Moreover, if your tribution points reach 100, you officially unlock access to our Bay Territory's internal purchase privileges..."

  "We won’t say more, just remember ohing!"

  "In Bay Territory, you learn professional secret teiques (feats)..."

  The adventurers happily divided their money, listening seriously to the promotion. Unsciously, the allure of gold made these words sti their minds.

  Although not all adventurers fully believed what was said, it undoubtedly piqued their curiosity, and they couldn’t resist wanting to find out more.

  What struck the adventurers as odd was ohing.

  They were not only familiar with various materials but were also highly skilled in analyzing the cause of death and oints of magical creatures.

  During the distribution breaks, they even gave on-the-spot demonstrations.

  "Take the crossbow atta the Sky-Splitting Lizard for example. Shooting the head isn’t the best option."

  "Its skull is quite sloped, making it hard to pierce directly. The bolt usually gnces off unless you shoot from above."

  "Of course, if you’re fident you shoot directly into its eyes, then fet what I said..."

  "The best method is to aim for the abdomen—it's a bigger target and easier to hit."

  "Once you hit it, you create a rge wound, effectively slowing it down."

  "Then follow up with another shot, and it’ll be easy to take down!"

  "If these Sky-Splitting Lizards poun front of you, rade blows with them."

  "Their attack power is incredibly high, and they tear through iron armor directly..."

  "The best method is to kill them with a polearm. Attag the head is the best choice—though hard, it’s brittle and easily shattered under pressure..."

  "..."

  At first, everyone preteo listen, but as they tihey became more serious.

  They soon realized that these people weren’t just expining things—they were actually demonstrating it right there.

  Their dispys of swordsmanship and crossbow skills won everyone's resped approval.

  The reason was simple: even within the same adventuring party, adventurers might not share such crucial information with each other.

  If you wao learn this kind of information in battle, you'd have to pay for it with blood and life-or-death struggles.

  Unknowingly, the adventurers were drawn to the style ahods of Bay Territory.

  They also learned much more about the Sky-Splitting Lizards, which had frightehem earlier.

  Uanding their dangers and weaknesses gave them more fidence.

  Due to fear and caution, or for other reasons, out of the 1000 adventurers present, only around 100 obtaihe golden s.

  The rest could only enviously watch those with smiling faces.

  Beelzebub, having learned a few tricks, wore a goofy grin as he took out the 1000 gold s and iionally dispyed the valuable space crystals.

  Pg both side by side, it immediately made the adventurers' eyes go red with greed.

  Seeing that most of the adventurers were now eager to rush down into the ruins, ready for a, their earlier hesitation and gloom had vanished.

  The noble heirs, equally shocked in the rear, stared curiously at the faintly glowing space crystals.

  At first, they felt a straement, as these valuable magical materials were already being produced before any formal excavation had even begun.

  This was absolutely thrilling!

  However, they couldn’t uand why Bay Territory was making all this public.

  "Are they stupid? Why are they announg it?"

  "1000 gold s per crystal? That’s the market price, right? There's no profit for Bay Territory?"

  "They must be crazy. If they’d kept it a secret, they could’ve earens of thousands of gold s in advance..."

  "So what now?"

  "What else? Send word to our families to send more people here!"

  "On average, one space crystal per hundred Sky-Splitting Lizards—this is more profitable than mining gold!"

  "We have to act fast. We ’t let them take everything!"

  "..."

  Beelzebub, whose "scheme" had succeeded, looked at the eager crowd and began to uand the usual tactics of the Lord...

  To get the workers moving!

  First, you have to feed them well!
