Chapter 400: Information about the Mercenary Guild

Nelin City, Mercenary Guild Tavern,

Li Si sat in front of the bar, slowly tasting the special fruit wine from the Elf Forest.

There are so many varieties of Elf fruit wine, and the fruit wine in Li Si's hand is a special light green color, with a crystal clear feeling similar to amber.

This fruit wine is brewed by the elves. The main ingredients are various fresh fruits in the Navia Great Forest. Sometimes the elves will add some special spices and medicinal materials to it. The taste is relatively delicate and special, with a natural and fresh taste.

Because the elves have a light taste, the alcohol content of the elf fruit wine is not high. It is more like a drink. It is still very popular at the tea party of the noble ladies of the human kingdom.

Li Si took a sip of the fruit wine, but his mind was not on it.

The reason why he chose to come to Nelin City was naturally not to run around aimlessly.

His destination this time was the Elf King Tingzhuonuo City, but the biggest problem Li Si faced now was that he didn't know much about the current situation in the Elf Forest.

That is, the lack of intelligence.

Because in version 2.0, the main battlefield of players is in the human kingdom, and there is very little information about the elves.

The destruction of the Elf King's Court happened during this very sensitive period. Because of the deliberate concealment of the elves, Li Si did not even know the specific time of the destruction of the Elf King's Court.

Li Si can only roughly determine that within the next year, changes in the Elf King's Court may happen at any time.

Although he is very confident in his own strength, Li Si dare not rush to the Elf King's Court like a fool now.

You know, the Elf King's Court, Dronor City, as one of the most prosperous forest cities of the elves, has gathered quite powerful forces.

There are several legendary strongmen of the elves alone!

But even with such a lineup, Dronor City still disappeared quietly.

From the subsequent intelligence, it is known that in fact, the elves did not know what happened in Dronor City. It was not until the main plot of 4.0 that there were clues pointing to the destruction of Dronor City to Demogorgon, the prince of the abyss.

Li Si is quite clear about Demogorgon's methods. Although Li Si once destroyed Demogorgon's plan in Bingfeng City, it is nothing to this demon prince.

Demogorgon may have planted seeds in many places in the Gaia world, and the matter of Bingfeng City may be just a detail to his most important plan.

But Li Si can be sure that the destruction of the Elf King's Court is definitely an important part of Demogorgon's plan.

Even the legendary strongmen in Drono City cannot stop the destruction of the city, and Li Si does not have the confidence to think that he can.

But now, the only good news is the destruction of Drono City. Demogorgon should not have taken direct action, or his actions are extremely secretive.

Otherwise, the gods of the elven pantheon would not have discovered it.

Although the traces of the elves have appeared in all continents, the most important territory is undoubtedly the Navia Forest on the Fanor continent.

It is said that this is the core of the world tree that once took root in the Gaia main world, and it is naturally regarded as the most important home by the elves.

Although Li Si knew more about the Navia Forest because of his memories in his previous life, he still needed to collect intelligence about the elves and make adequate preparations before deciding what to do next.

After all, Li Si was planning to take away their sacred object [World Tree Sprout] from the elves' territory, and he didn't want to be hunted down by the entire elves.

So the timing of the entry had to be chosen well, preferably after the destruction of Drono City and before the elves discovered the abnormality to take away the [World Tree Sprout] in advance.

But Li Si was not in a hurry now, as he had plenty of time to collect intelligence and make plans.

Li Si's plan was to slowly walk along the human cities around the Navia Forest, while collecting intelligence and moving towards the Kingdom of Bolin.

It was impossible that there was no news of the destruction of the Elf King's Court, which was so big.

If he didn't know this news, Li Si would probably be like the elves in his previous life, and he couldn't imagine that the Elf King's Court would be suddenly destroyed.

But since he already had the information about what was bound to happen in the future, Li Si could collect information about the Elf King's Court and detect anything wrong in advance.

For Li Si, the Mercenary Tavern was the best place to collect information.

Although there might be more information from some underground organizations such as the Assassin's Guild, the authenticity was not guaranteed.

Li Si still planned to get the necessary information from the Mercenary Guild first.

As for dealing with those Warcraft materials, it was a piece of cake.

After waiting for a while, a middle-aged half-elf man hurried down from the upstairs of the tavern, followed by the half-elf maid.

"Dear guest, welcome!"

"I am Drogo Kormi, the manager of the Mercenary Tavern."

As soon as he walked to the side of Li Si, the half-elf who claimed to be Drogo smiled and saluted Li Si respectfully.

When he came over, he had already seen the hill of magical beast materials behind Li Si, and his eyes trembled, and his attitude became more respectful and enthusiastic.

Although he was a little surprised at Li Si's youth, Zhuo Ge quickly adjusted his mood and continued enthusiastically:

"What should I call you?"

"Please rest assured, we will buy these magical beast materials at the most favorable price, please don't worry."

"Well, just call me Li Si."

Li Si sat in front of the bar, turned his head to look at Zhuo Ge, nodded and said.

"Mr. Li Si, it's a bit inconvenient here, why don't you move and wait in our VIP room?"

"If you want to buy intelligence, it's more convenient there, not to mention that it takes a lot of time to count these magical beast materials."

Zhuo Ge bowed slightly and said beside Li Si.

He is now very sure that the young man in front of him is a golden-level extraordinary professional.

Although he didn't feel any breath, this is the most wrong place.

He was a silver-level hunter, and he could not even sense the aura of the young man in front of him. This person was undoubtedly much stronger than him, at least one level higher.

As a border city, there were more strong men in Nelin City, and there were also two gold-level professionals in the mercenary guild.

But that did not mean that if he rashly angered a gold-level existence, he would still get anything good.

The greater possibility was to leave the mercenary guild.

Drogo did not want that. As a half-elf, it was already quite rare for him to become one of the managers of the mercenary guild.

It was also because of his position as the manager of the mercenary guild that he was able to shelter many homeless half-elves.

Drogo was very satisfied with his current life. He had a beautiful wife, his children were growing up healthily, and he also had a high prestige among the half-elves.

He did not want to break this stable life because of his carelessness.

However, this extremely rare thing in front of him would also bring him opportunities.

With so many magical beast materials, as long as he can complete the acquisition normally, he will almost complete his target as the manager of the mercenary guild this year, and he will also get a generous reward.

"Okay."

Li Si nodded, then stood up and followed Drogo upstairs.

Drogo winked at the waiters standing by, and led Li Si upstairs.

After Drogo and Li Si left, the half-elf girl and other waiters got busy, dealing with the magical beast materials left by Li Si, sorting and counting them, and sending them to the warehouse behind the tavern.

At this time, many mercenaries were paying attention to the process of counting materials while discussing who the young man was.

Even if they had poor eyesight, they knew that they had made too many mistakes before when they saw the overly humble attitude of the tavern manager Drogo towards Li Si.

The appearance of such a young gold-level professional in Nelin City was big news for the mercenaries.

On the second floor of the Mercenary Tavern, in the VIP room,

Maybe because it is close to the Forest of Elves, all the buildings and interior decorations here are more like the style of elves.

The furniture, carpets, murals, etc. all have the kind of delicate leaves and petals decorations, mainly in light green, light blue and other colors, like the dew in the morning, and like the feeling of mist in the forest, giving people a fresh and refined feeling. At the same time, shining colors such as gold and silver will be used appropriately to symbolize the mystery and nobility of the elves.

However, Li Si had seen too much in his previous life, so he didn't care too much and sat casually on a large rattan chair.

This rattan chair is made of several special vines tanned and woven in the Great Forest of Navia. It is soft, comfortable and breathable, and is very suitable for the somewhat humid and sultry climate in the Forest of Elves.

On the table in front of Li Si, there are various special fresh fruits, and crystal water drops are sliding on them. Next to it is a pot of steaming flower tea and dark green fruit wine in a pure glass bottle.

"These are all specialties of the Elf Forest. Lord Li Si, you can try them."

"Yes."

Li Si didn't care too much and took a fruit with a hard red shell from the fruit plate in front of him.

Gently press the top of the fruit, and the shell of the whole fruit will completely crack in Li Si's hand, revealing the crystal clear white flesh. The juice is full, and the sweet taste spreads in the mouth with a light bite, which is endless aftertaste.

Lord Li Si is very familiar with the way to eat Lijia fruit. It should not be the first time to come to the Elf Forest. You have to pay more attention.

Zhuo Ge thought of a plan, smiled and looked at Li Si and said:

"Lord Li Si, I heard from the waiter that you are going to buy intelligence from us. I wonder what you need?"

Many people buy intelligence from the Mercenary Guild. After all, the reputation of the Mercenary Guild is still quite good, and it will not specifically use false intelligence to cheat people.

"I need all the information about the elves and the Navia Great Forest."

Li Si said directly to Zhuo Ge.

Although he already knew a lot of information, he didn't intend to miss any possible clues this time, even if he repeated it, he didn't care.

Hearing this, Drogo frowned slightly and said cautiously:

"Lord Li Si, there may be a lot of information you want."

"Although I can give you a discount, but..."

Li Si glanced at Drogo and said indifferently:

"It's okay, just bring it to me."

"I should have enough money from selling materials, right?"

"That's definitely enough."

Drogo was a little speechless. Although the value of this information was relatively high, it was only a few thousand gold coins at most, but it was far less than the Warcraft materials sold by Li Si.

Anyway, he had already reminded him, and since Li Si chose to buy it, he naturally didn't mind.

After all, he could make more money.

Not long after, Drogo took back all the information.

Handing a white crystal to Li Si, Drogo added:

"Because you bought a lot of information, this is a special memory crystal made by the guild, and all the information you need is in it."

Drogo also spread a sheepskin map on the table and gestured to Li Si:

"This is the map of the Navia Forest, the most complete map of our mercenary guild."

Li Si took the white crystal, glanced at the map on the table, and compared it with his memory.

Compared with when Li Si entered the Navia Forest in his previous life, the border between the entire forest and the human kingdom has not changed much.

The map in front of him marked the towns, rivers, mountains and some well-known trade routes of the elves in the Navia Forest.

Li Si noticed that thousands of kilometers southwest of his city of Nelin, there were two specially marked elf cities.

One is the core of the current elven kingdom, the elven king city of Andor;

The other is the elven king city of Tingzhuono, which represents the long history and past glory of the elves.

However, it is still quite far away from Nelin City.

On this map, Li Si noticed that the information on the area where the Great Forest of Navia and the Kingdom of Humans meet was recorded in the most detail, and even some elven villages were recorded.

However, the deeper you go into the Great Forest, the more brief it becomes, and in the end, only a few simple descriptions remain.

But this is normal, after all, that is the territory of the Kingdom of Elf, and it is difficult for humans to go deep into such a remote place.

After confirming that the information on the map was not too different from the unexpected, Li Si used his mental power to receive the information in the memory crystal in his hand.

After a while, Li Si raised his head, frowned, and returned the memory crystal in his hand to Drogo.

So fast?

Even a gold-level wizard would not be so fast. How strong is his mental power?

Drogo's eyes showed a trace of shock.

He knew how much information was stored in this memory crystal. It might take a normal person half a day. Unexpectedly, Li Si had completely interpreted it in less than a few minutes.

But Li Si didn't care about Drogo's reaction. He was having a headache now.

Most of the information from the mercenary guild was basic information that Li Si knew, and the rest was recent information about elves and humans in the Great Forest of Navia.

There was almost no information about the Elven Court.

The only relevant information was that the Ilisel family of the Elven Court, Drano City, sent a team of envoys to the Kingdom of Bolin.

But this was a month ago.

"Is there any more information about Drano City?"

Li Si asked Drogo.

Hearing Li Si's words, Drogo's eyes twitched, and after looking at Li Si to confirm that he had heard it correctly, he said carefully:

"As far as I know, Drano City is the location of the Elven Court. People other than the elves are not welcome to enter there, and the guild does not have many relevant records."

Just when Li Si thought there was no hope, Drogo was silent for a moment and said:

"If you want to know about Drano City, I know someone who should know about Drano City."
