Chapter 204 - Legendary Cliche Confrontation
"Huh!? All of them are the same quest!?" Tang Shaoyang looked at the quest and found all of them were the same quest, but each quest paid them differently.
"Yes! This is the highest pay for the Wood Rank Quest. However, there's no Wood Rank Party want to take the quest since the quest too risky for them while the higher rank party don't want to take the quest as the pay is too low," Sera did not hide this fact, "The village who issued the quest could not afford more than this, that's why the quest is left in the dust."
Tang Shaoyang fell silent, he was still clueless about how much silver and copper worth. He was thinking of something else, the Dire Wolves. He found the name was similar.
—Second Portal, Dire Wolves are the beast that occupied the forest.
Zaneos reminded him, and he immediately remembered. Dire Wolves were the beast that caused his brother-in-law to experience what was the meaning of hanging in the death door.
Sera took the silence to something else. She was borrowing her money, hoping the new party would take the quest. She was concerned with the safety of the villager since the quest was already an old month.
The first day she worked in the guild, the three elders came to the guild to issue the quest. However, no one would take it since a big pack of Dire Wolves were too risky for Wood Rank Adventurer.
She was about to get the quest, "If you are searching for another quest, then I will look at the other quest with the highest pay–" she was reaching empty air as Tang Shaoyang pulled the quest paper from her reach.
"Who says we are looking for another quest? Since this is the highest pay quest for our rank, then we will take it!" Tang Shaoyang handed the paper to Cao Yuntai, "We will take it since this is the highest pay for the Wood Rank!"
"Are you sure? The client said there's probably Alpha Dire Wolf," Sera asked again, "Moreover, it's a big pack, not just a small pack of wolves," Dire Wolf's strength was about the same as Wood Rank Adventurer. A big pack of them, even the Bronze Rank Party would hesitate to fight wolves.
'It's just Dire Wolves, what's she worried about?' That was what he thought when he noticed the lady was so concerned when he picked up the quest, "Mnn, we will take it. But can you help us with the village's location? We are new around here."
Sera's face brightened as she walked back to the table. She pulled up the drawer and picked up a scroll, "This is the map, a gift for you," she opened the map and pointed at the big castle symbol on the map, "This is Waskin City! Durin Village is here, and…" she pointed to the location of the three villages.
The three villages were located near each other, "You can reach Durin Village in one and half an hour walking, and another half an hour to reach the next village."
"I see, what about Individual Quest? Can you give the quest that we can take during the trip to these three villages?" Tang Shaoyang asked for more quests. He understood the adventurer system pretty much quickly, the higher your rank you will receive the higher pay as well.
So their goal in the short term was to raise their rank quickly, gathering the money, and buying what they could not get from their original world. From the lady's explanation, it seemed they could buy a skill scroll.
'I wonder about class?' He did not ask since he did not know well about the class system in this world. He had to be careful as the absurd game did not exist in Zaneos, Zowen, and Karan previous world.
"Ah!? How can I forget about this," the lady slapped her forehead and went back to the table. She pulled the drawer and looked for a suitable quest for them.

[Dire Wolves Pelt]
Mission: Retrieve Dire Wolves Pelt for Renkin Wardrobe
Reward: Based on Pelt condition, 20 Copper/pelt (Perfect condition), 5 Copper/pelt (good condition)

"Actually the quest is for someone at Bronze Rank, but the client did not specify the rank who could take the quest, they just want to get the job done with the pay," Sera smiled as she placed another four quest papers.
The four papers were on the same quest but from different clients. Five different shops were looking for the same material, the quest they could finish while doing the party quest. What a thoughtful staff, "Then we will take these quests," he took the five quest papers and handed them to Cao Yuntai.
"So, we just need to kill the wolves and go back?" Liang Suyin asked.
"Ah, no. You have to ask the client to sign the quest paper after you hunt the wolves. As for the individual quest, you should bring the pelt back to the guild. The guild will be responsible for that," Sera explained patiently.
However, a doubt arose in her heart. They did not even know the basics to complete the quest, which meant they were totally newbies, 'Is it okay to send them to face the Dire Wolves?'
"Then we will take our leave. Thank you for your help," Tang Shaoyang stood up and thanked the lady. They then headed toward the exit, and Sera followed quietly, 'The leader looks reliable, they should be fine.'
When they came out of the room, Tang Shaoyang did not immediately go for the quest. He stopped at the board at the left of the door. There were many drawings filled the board, "What's this?"
Tang Shaoyang had been curious about this board. The wooden board was filled with pictures and money was placed under the picture.
'He does not even know the Bounty Board,' Sera became increasingly worried, "This is a bounty board. A certain beast or monster has evolved too strong, so we set up a bounty for them," the lady staff seemed to want to say more, "However, there's another purpose behind the bounty board, it's to warn the adventurer. We set this up to warn you guys if you meet the beast or monster on the board, you have to run away immediately!"
Sera walked to the board and pointed to a picture. It was a big wolf, "Dire Wolf King, the guild has been hunting the beast for years but failed many times. Either the subjugation team is wiped out or the beast is managed to escape each time the subjugating team cornered the beast!"

[Dire Wolf King]

Bounty: 4 Gold 50 Silver

"The beast is last found out near the three villages, you have to be careful. Just abandon the quest if you meet the Dire Wolf King!"
The four subordinates certainly knew their Boss' thoughts. Based on the bounty, their Boss most likely would focus to hunt the Dire Wolf King instead of focusing on their quests.
Tang Shaoyang nodded and turned around, but the lady was holding his hand, "May I know your name?"
"Tang, you can call me Tang," he told her name, "My name is Sera, I wish you good luck on your quest, Tang~,"
Looking at this, Fan Rui nudged Gu Yingjie, "No hope for you, my friend. She fancies our Boss," he was teasing the young man.
After bidding their farewell to their guide, they turned around. While they were walking toward the exit there was another group walking toward them. The opposite group walked in a line, occupying space for them to pass. It was clear the opposite group did this intentionally to block them.
Tang Shaoyang frowned but he did not stop. As they were about to bump at each other, only then he stopped. He was sure that the opposite party was targeting him and his group.
The opposite party consisted of seven people. The one in the front was a big guy, two meters tall, a deep scar crossed on his forehead, and a huge shield on his back.
Next to the tall man, a young man with an above-average look, with long brown hair tied into a ponytail, and his sharp eyes were eyeing Liang Suyin.
However, there was one thing that stood out from the two. The silver badge that was hanging around their neck. Both were Silver Rank Adventurers.
Behind Tang Shaoyang, Gu Yingjie's eyes were gleaming in excitement, "This is it!" Fan Rui did not understand what he was talking about.
"The Legendary cliche confrontation against the bullies, and from the situation, our Boss is the main character!"
