Iron-blooded Fatty: "Our level is too low, no adventurer team wants us, what should we do?"
Wolf Limp: "Yeah, I just stopped a big guy to ask if he needed people. He didn't even look at me and told me to scram."
Looking at the constipated expressions on his two companions' faces, Earth-eating Rich Man was silent for a moment, then suddenly had an idea.
"Got it! Nobody wants us, why don't we just form our own team?"
The other players' eyes also lit up.
"Great idea!"
"Damn! Why didn't I think of that?"
"Can a newly registered adventurer form a team?"
"I don't think it says you can't! I'll give it a try!"
So, putting words into action, Earth-eating Rich Man immediately went back to his group, and before long, he indeed registered an adventurer team.
Though the adventurer guild has the church's backing, it isn't a strict organization. People come and go freely, and its management isn't rigorous, allowing anyone to register a team, which will be automatically deregistered if no tasks are completed for a long time.
After registering the adventurer team, Rich Man promptly arrived at the entrance of the adventurer guild. In an instant, he transformed from a newbie to a big shot, shouting to the adventurers lingering at the entrance.
"Anybody still looking for a team? Our Invincible Supreme Adventure Group is recruiting! No level restrictions! No class restrictions! If you're a person, you're in!"
Actually, there was half a sentence he didn't say.
That was, as long as someone completed three commissions casually, they could finish the newbie task.
He initially shouted this out with a try-it-and-see mentality, not expecting that as soon as he finished speaking, a large crowd rushed toward him.
"Boss, do you need someone here?"
"Do you think I'm good enough?"
"I'm incredibly strong! I can out-wrestle a hundred-kilo fat pig!"
Seeing the enthusiastic crowd, Earth-eating Rich Man was at a loss for a moment, and hurriedly raised his voice again to shout.
"Our humble church can't accommodate so many people! Also, our newly established group might have tight finances, with no fixed salary! But don't worry, as long as we make money from commissions, anyone who contributes will get a share!"
He thought saying this would discourage some people, but the crowd around him didn't diminish at all; instead, it grew even larger.
"No problem, boss! Just room and board is enough! I don't need a salary!"
"Boss, look at me! I don't need a place to live, just some food to eat!"
Seeing this group of excited "adventurers," Earth-eating Rich Man was dumbfounded.
Good heavens.
Are these people adventurers or beggars?
Why does he feel like they're here to beg?!
Not far away, the experienced adventurers watched this farce, with undisguised ridicule on their faces.
A burly man with a battle axe sneered and said.
"What a bunch of idiots."
Recruiting a group of farmers into the team, are they planning to farm in the maze?
Against even slightly stronger demons, these rookies would be nothing but a burden holding everyone back. Not only are they of no help, but they might even take advantage of the situation to rob and run wild.
The maze isn't a plain, there isn't room for them to spread out. More people don't necessarily mean an advantage.
However, he didn't bother to advise the indiscriminate adventurer or the rookies rushing to their doom.
Reality will teach them a lesson!
...
In just a few minutes, the four-person "Invincible Supreme Adventure Team" ballooned into the fifty-person "Invincible Supreme Adventure Group."
Not only that, all these adventurers, who came out of nowhere, didn't even want wages; just room and board were enough.
They even accepted the harsh condition of no fixed wages, agreeing to profit-share after the adventure group made money.
Such hardworking and frugal bull workers threw the four players into bewilderment, even starting to suspect if the game had some bug.
How could there be free people in this world?
And the most crucial point, they never intended to recruit so many people!
Now, the task of finding lost cats and dogs couldn't be completed, only forced to take on big jobs.
"These people don't even need maintenance fees. Isn't it too unbalanced for the game..." Iron-blooded Fatty couldn't help but grumble, looking at the massive crowd behind them.
Wolf Limp nodded in agreement, also looking incredulous, muttering.
"Indeed... Is there no work left on the surface? Why are they all squeezing into the maze?"
Earth-eating Rich Man frowned and said with a troubled expression.
"What about the food supplies? More than fifty people need a considerable amount of provisions."
Iron-blooded Fatty: "Why not just send them to the construction site instead."
Jade-faced Hand Tired King's eyes lit up: "Great idea!"
Earth-eating Rich Man also thought this idea was good, and after a long contemplation, said.
"Let's set up camp outside first. I need to make some purchases for supplies, and have a chat with them to understand their situation."
Iron-blooded Fatty: "You just entered the game, where will you get Joss Paper?"
Earth-eating Rich Man: "Just buy it on the forum. The price of Joss Paper was already driven down by those hard-working bulls in the Otherworld, do you think it's like when the server just launched?"
Wolf Limp: "Damn, RMT!"
Iron-blooded Fatty: "Rich Man 666!"
Jade-faced Hand Tired King sighed.
"I almost thought you were really eating dirt."
Earth-eating Rich Man: "..."
...
The group left the gates of Mist Town and set up camp on the open ground outside the walls, lighting a bonfire.
This area was also considered a safe zone, without the worry of demon attacks or other players' assaults.
