"Cave explorer guild? Big brother, do you want to become a cave explorer?" Li Ke's clever little head was spinning very fast, and she guessed Lin Yi's thoughts almost instantly.
"right."
"Just in time, the dean asked us to take the relics we dug up last time to the guild and sell them. Big brother, let's come together." Li Ke was unprepared for Lin Yi and tightly held Lin Yi's hand to explore the cave. As they walked away from the guild, the intimacy felt as if they had known each other for a long time.
Nado, who was standing aside, felt strange in his heart after seeing Rico's reaction.
In his impression, although Rico sometimes seemed naive, she was actually a very shrewd person.
You know, although the town of Os is a neutral zone, it can be said that it is a mixed bag of people, with all kinds of people.
Smugglers who smuggle relics, cave diggers, intelligence dealers, and scientific research madmen.
Rico and Nado are struggling in such an environment. If they had not been smart, they would have been deceived into other places. Sold.
So even if Lin Yi acted very harmless, Nado thought Li Ke shouldn't let down her guard so quickly.
In this way, Lin Yi happily exchanged names with Li Ke on the road, and the two of them officially knew each other.
Soon after, they came to a small three-story foreign-style building.
Li Ke opened the door happily and saw her running towards an eighteen-year-old girl with beautiful appearance in front of the counter and shouted happily: "Miss Alyssa."
"It's Xiao Li Ke. Why, are you here to sell things again today?"
After seeing Li Ke, Alyssa showed a gentle smile on her face and reached out to touch Li Ke's head.
She is a staff member of the Cave Explorers Guild responsible for recovering relics and registering them, and she has long been acquainted with Rico. .
Rico quickly took off the backpack from her back and carefully placed it on the counter.
In the backpack are more than a dozen of the fourth-level relics of the Sun Jade that Rico and her team dug up in the first layer of the Abyss Abyss. In this world, energy is not provided by traditional chemical energy sources such as coal, but from Abyss. The sun jade dug out of the abyss.
For example, the value of these sun jade in Rico's backpack cannot be underestimated. Together, they can at least support the life of a small town for a long time.
"Seventeen sun jade, right? I'll send someone to deliver it tomorrow if you want to pay." Alyssa carefully counted the sun jade in Rico's backpack, and then gently put Rico's backpack under the counter. .
In such a mixed place, Alyssa would naturally not give the money directly to Rico.
She knew the dangers here. If two children went home with gold coins, it would be like a fat sheep walking into a pack of wolves.
Rico and Nadeau are just children, and they don't have enough ability to protect themselves and their money.
You know, most of the cave explorers are people with very abnormal mental states.
According to Alyssa, among the group of cave explorers, the ratio of good guys to bad guys is about 30-70.
Those cave diggers who have been exploring the Abyss Abyss for a long time have experienced countless hardships and terrifying scenes, and their spirits are easily affected and become abnormal.
Alyssa didn't want anything to happen to Rico and Nado because of her momentary negligence.
"By the way, sister Alyssa, brother Lin Yi said he wants to become a cave explorer, so you can help register." Li Ke excitedly pulled Lin Yi's arm to the front of the counter.
After seeing Lin Yi, Alyssa took out a registration form from the counter.
"Ten gold coins, as well as name, origin, and age." Following Alyssa's instructions, Lin Yi completed the form.
After filling out the form, Alyssa took out a gripper from the drawer on the counter and handed it to Lin Yi.
This gripper looks ordinary, but in fact it is a level four relic and an important tool used by the Cave Explorer Guild to screen people.
If you can't even hold this gripper, then the cave explorer guild will naturally refuse to become a cave explorer because you fail the test.
Of course, if someone enters the Abyss Abyss privately and dies, the Cave Explorers Guild will not be held responsible.
Lin Yi took the handgrip meter calmly and shook it seemingly casually.
The next second, the grip meter was held tightly by Lin Yi in Alyssa's eyes.
"But... it's okay, please wait a moment." Alyssa's eyes widened, and she was dumbfounded when she looked at the gripper in Lin Yi's hand.
It was the first time she had seen someone put the grip together so easily.
In the past, most of the people who came here for testing could not shake the gripper at all. Some people even tried their best and could only make the gripper move slightly.
Alyssa hurried up to the second floor. After a while, Alyssa brought someone to Lin Yi.
"Hello, Bell Alger."
"Lin Yi."
"It's like this. I heard from Alyssa that Mr. Lin's grip strength is perfect. Can you do it again?" The flute hanging around Bell Alger's neck has a moon-shaped pattern, which means that he has reached the moon flute level.
Moon Flute is equivalent to a teacher among cave explorers, and can be said to be the backbone of cave explorers.
As for the black flute and the white flute, the numbers of these two are too rare, so they rarely appear in the cave raiders guild. Most of the cave raiders here are still at the two levels of Yue Flute and Cang Flute.
Lin Yi naturally didn't know. He picked up the gripper on the table with a nonchalant expression and held it again in front of Bell Alger's eyes.
"Well, it is obvious that the ordinary level determination method is of no use to sir. In this case, sir, please follow me to the back of the guild." Bell Alger took the gripper from Lin Yi's hand, and then gently With a little force, he pinched them together.
After confirming that there was nothing wrong with the gripper, he turned slightly sideways and made an invitation gesture to Lin Yi, indicating that Lin Yi would follow him.
As for Li Ke and Nado, they naturally followed Lin Yi closely.
Alyssa lowered her voice and whispered to Rico and Nado not to run around later.
Rico and Nado nodded obediently, their eyes full of excitement and curiosity.
You must know that in the past, they were not qualified to enter the training ground behind the Cavern Diggers Guild. This time, they were completely influenced by Lin Yi.
Arriving at the back door, Lin Yi looked up and saw an extremely huge square in the Cave Explorers Guild.
On the square, there are a large number of props used for training, as well as many dummies for battle.
There are many kinds of props, including heavy dumbbells, sturdy wooden stakes, and all kinds of weird training equipment.
"In the next test, I will be your opponent." Bell Alger turned around and looked at Lin Yi.
As a Moon Flute cave explorer, Bell Alger has full confidence in his own combat power.
In other words, the cave diggers of Os have a natural sense of superiority towards people from other countries.
Many of the cave diggers from other countries were born in the wild, and the gap between the two sides in terms of experience and combat effectiveness was very obvious.
"With weapons?"
"You can use it as long as you want, I'll be empty-handed." Bel Alger smiled easily.
According to his past experience, most of the people who came here were only at Cangdi level, and those at Yuedi level were pitifully few.
Seeing Bell Alger's confident look, Lin Yi pushed up his monocle and checked Bell Alger's information.

…
After reading Bell Alger's information, Lin Yi couldn't help but laugh, realizing that he had completely overthought it.
Lin Yi originally thought that all of Bell Alger's attributes had reached 80 points, but he didn't expect that not many of them reached 70 points.
After recalling the plot, Lin Yi found that the combat effectiveness of the cave explorers was indeed far inferior to that of the abyssal creatures.
Apart from the five monster-like white flutes, only the black flute's combat effectiveness is barely acceptable.
From this point of view, it is normal for Yue Flute to have such fighting power.
"Are you ready?" Bell Alger moved his body, stretched his legs, and reminded Lin Yi.
Lin Yi just stood there quietly, looking completely defenseless.
"bring it on."
Seeing Lin Yi's posture, Bell Alger couldn't help but frowned.
In his opinion, if you enter the Abyss Abyss with such an unprepared mentality, something will happen sooner or later.
Bell Alger leaned forward slightly, placing his weight on his front feet, and the toes of his back feet were on the ground, ready to exert force.
Immediately, Bell Alger kicked the ground hard with his back foot, jumped up with his body, and swung his arms upward.
In the air, Bell Alger kicked his hind legs forward, straightened his knees, and straightened his insteps, preparing to kick Lin Yi away.
Lin Yi never expected that Bell Alger would look down on him so much. It was a taboo to leave both feet off the ground at the same time during a battle.
In the midst of this flash of lightning, Lin Yi kicked out fiercely, and this kick hit Bell Alger's abdomen squarely.
The huge impact caused Bell Alger to lose his balance instantly, and he flew out like a kite with its string broken.
With a dull and loud bang, Bell Alger knocked away three training dummies.
The dummies staggered under the huge impact, and their parts were scattered all over the floor.
Then Bel Alger hit the hard wall hard, and his body slowly slid down the wall. His originally confident face was now full of shock and disbelief.
"Mr. Bell Alger, are you okay?"
Seeing this scene, Elsa quickly stepped forward and helped Belle Alger up from the ground.
Bel Alger frowned slightly and slowly opened his clothes, only to see a black and blue footprint suddenly appear on his abdomen.
Lin Yi had actually stopped, otherwise with Lin Yi's current strength of 90 points and a master of melee combat, Bell Alger's upper body would explode directly with one kick.
"Sorry, it seems that I underestimated you. I can't determine your level at the moment. I will report it to the guild later, and there will be a special black flute for testing." With that kick just now, Bell Alger only felt a It was as if a heavy hammer had hit him hard.
It seemed that Lin Yi's combat power had far exceeded the scope of the moon flute. Bell Alger knew that there was nothing he could do, so he could only ask for some black flutes for testing.
"Okay, I will be wandering around Oss recently. Just send someone to notify me when the time comes."
There is nothing wrong with Lin Yi about this. In fact, Lin Yi, who is a cave explorer, doesn't pay much attention to it. He mainly focuses on the relic information of the cave explorer guild.
You must know that there are many good things in the relics of this world.
For example, the special relic [life-extending wine], as the name suggests, can greatly extend a person's life after drinking this wine.
A first-level relic [Thousand Man Wedge], a Thousand Man Wedge is equivalent to the power of 1,000 people, and can also extend one's lifespan.
After leaving the guild, Lin Yi asked Rico and Nado what they wanted. Anyway, gold coins were like stones to Lin Yi.
In so many worlds, Lin Yi has already collected countless gold coins. Even buying the entire town of Os is not impossible for Lin Yi.
However, Lin Yi couldn't guarantee how strong the high-end combat power in this world would be, so it was best to keep a low profile.
Without even thinking, Rico's eyes flashed with excitement and she directly said what she wanted most: "I want a brand new cave exploration costume!"
As for Nadeau, he is in a tangle at the moment.
Nado really wanted the caving equipment, but Nado also wanted to buy some toys. After all, the toys in the orphanage were handmade wood carvings made by everyone when they were idle and bored. Of course they couldn't be compared with normal toys.
Seeing that Nado was still struggling, Lin Yi simply took the two of them directly to the cave explorer equipment store to buy two sets of cave explorer exclusive equipment for them.
Including fire-resistant and quick-drying clothing, headlamps using solar jade as energy, and special nylon ropes and backpacks.
The two pieces of equipment cost Lin Yi about ten gold coins. The main reason was that some of the medicines given to the two of them were very expensive, such as insect repellent that could be burned in the wild, and monster feces that could mask one's own aura.
Most of the gold coins are mainly used to purchase these special items, but the clothes and equipment add up to not much money.
"It cost Brother Lin a lot of money." Nado looked at his brand new cave exploration suit and was very grateful to Lin Yi.
"It's okay, it's just a little money. Wherever your home is, I'll take you back."
Lin Yi shook his head and wanted to go to the orphanage. He wondered if Li Ke had met Reg now.
Led by Rico and Nado, Lin Yi followed the two to the Belchero Orphanage where they were staying.
Belcello Orphanage is a semi-official orphanage, and the orphans adopted here work as cave explorers to earn income for the orphanage.
At the same time, the orphanage also functions as a school. The orphans learn cultural classes and cave exploration knowledge here. Children of different ages also attend classes in the same classroom.
It can be regarded as teaching them some survival knowledge in disguise.
Before Li Ke and Nado opened the door, Lin Yi vaguely heard a middle-aged woman scolding others inside.
Rico and Nado panicked after hearing this and didn't know whether they should open the door.
At this time, the people inside seemed to hear the movement outside, so they opened the door.
"Riko, Nado, what are the clothes you two are wearing?"
When the director of the orphanage saw the clothes on the two men, his first reaction was that these two guys must have secretly taken out the relics dug up by previous owners and sold them to buy new clothes.
"Hello, I bought the clothes on these two children. They helped me a little, but they didn't care at all."
After Lin Yi spoke, the dean noticed that there was another person not far away.
After seeing someone coming, the dean put away his words of reprimand, then gave Rico and Nado a look, telling them to go in quickly.
"I'm sorry to have cost you so much. If you don't mind, please come in and sit down for a while."
The dean saluted Lin Yi and then invited Lin Yi into the orphanage.
After entering the orphanage, Lin Yi could only say that the environment here was worse than Lin Yi imagined.
Many of the bricks and tiles in the room had fallen away. Although the floor and walls were wiped very clean, the traces of time could not be concealed.
In the room, there was a fifteen or sixteen year old boy giving lessons to other children in the orphanage.
After seeing Rico and Nado come back in new clothes, the orphans couldn't help but discuss in a low voice.
"Be quiet."
As the dean spoke up, the children who were discussing quietly fell silent for an instant.
In this orphanage, the orphans are most afraid of the director, including Rico and Nado. (End of chapter)
