56. Potter's Tavern

In the small tavern, the sound of laughter resounded wave after wave like a storm crashing on the shore, and it never stopped.

The tavern was not very large, and it could only accommodate about eight or nine round tables when it was full, and at four guests per table, it would only serve a maximum of thirty-six guests. However, if you count the bar and a few single or double seats on the left and right walls, it can still accommodate nearly 50 guests. It's just that this number, compared to the many other taverns in the royal capital, is really a bit shabby and shabby.

However, given that the tavern is located in a slum, it is still very popular.

Almost every night, the tavern is completely full, which makes many latecomers sigh.

Of course, since it's a slum tavern, there's bound to be some minor chaos here.

For example, relying on force, numbers, etc., to seize the table.

It's just that none of this has anything to do with Sean at this time.

A silver coin that was tossed onto the bar.

It bounced a few times on the bar, and was about to roll off the edge of the bar when it was slapped by a large hand. Then the hand retracted with lightning speed, and the silver coin on the bar disappeared with it.

"Drink something?" A gruff voice rang out at the same time as the silver coin disappeared.

"A glass of golden Roland." Standing on the other side of the bar, a young man with black hair pulled a bar chair a little away, and then sat down calmly, "Add honey and ice, and sprinkle some mint leaves." ”

"Now it's the season. Add mint and ice and honey, and be careful that the cold gets into the bones. A middle-aged man at the bar, who was also the owner of the bar, raised his eyebrows slightly.

This is a man who is not very tall. He is probably less than 1.7 meters tall, and compared to the strong and powerful bosses of ordinary taverns, this boss looks very thin. But he is such a thin person, and his voice still has a strong penetrating power in this noisy bar.

"I've heard you guys have a good spicy meat here." The black-haired young man chuckled softly, "This way, you won't be afraid of the cold to your bones." ”

"A cup of special gold Roland and a spicy meat, this silver coin is not enough." The owner of the bar snorted.

The black-haired young man is naturally Sean.

At this time, Sean took out a silver coin from his body. This time, though, instead of bouncing the silver coin onto the bar, he gently placed it on it and pushed it over, "Is it enough?" ”

"Wait a minute." The bar owner exhaled. Put the coin away, then turn around and get busy.

Sean waited with a smile on his face.

He stood with his elbows propped up on the bar, his chin resting on the back of his hand. Started to observe the bar.

This is the reward link for the task he is currently doing.

The task is actually not difficult. It's just very troublesome, anyway, it's nothing more than running errands, fighting monsters and the like. It's just that at the beginning, Sean still ignored some details that were different from reality, so he made some small oolongs.

Imagine what it would be like for a duke, who is now almost at the pinnacle of power, to suddenly run into a commoner's house?

So even at this moment, in the tavern located in this slum, Sean is a little more tolerant.

Of course. This disguise technique is really not a big deal.

At least those who are more familiar and close to Sean can still easily find Sean's disguise. on this. Sean can only express his helplessness, after all, Elekate is not following him at this time, so that kind of miraculous disguise is naturally impossible, and the only person who knows some disguise skills with Sean at this time is Reina, who used to be a mercenary, what else can Sean ask for?

Once you've followed the quest's progress, you'll be able to purchase a cup of Golden Roland and a special spicy meat for two silver coins in this tavern.

Just like the "Blade" and "Wine" that Sean drank at Andrew's hotel, the two delicacies, Golden Roland and Special Spicy Meat, can also bring the player a skill point when they are eaten for the first time, and the two silver coins are still very acceptable compared to the high price of the blade and the wine. The only problem is that the process of this task is more troublesome, and it took Sean three days to get it all done, but now it's finally time to harvest.

Soon, Golden Roland and the special spicy meat were brought up by the tavernkeeper.

Golden Roland, a rum made with Roland flowers, has a light amber color in the liquid, and it exudes not a rich aroma but a floral aroma. When honey is added, the liquid of this wine takes on a golden yellow color, which looks like liquid gold, and it has a sweet honey and mint flavor, so it is also called Golden Roland.

As for the special spicy meat, it is still very visually impactful at first glance.

The sauce that topped a large piece of steak was reddish, but otherwise it had no other color. It's just that the smell of the sauce is not very choking, but there is a rich aroma that increases the appetite, and when the knife is cut, it gives people the feeling that the meat is very tender, this tenderness is almost like tofu, and its production technique is far beyond the imagination of normal people.

It's just that when Sean took the first bite, he instantly experienced a taste stimulation that was completely different from the game.

At that moment, he only felt as if he had been filled with magma in his mouth.

……

It took longer than Sean had imagined for this dinner to finally be resolved.

Of course, the final cost must not be as simple as two silver coins, but a whole gold coin.

The amount of steak of special spicy meat is very sufficient, not to mention more than five or six catties, and the fee charged is only a silver coin, which is very cost-effective in every aspect. But usually no one in this tavern orders this food. Purely because if you want to enjoy this delicacy, you need to spend several times the amount of money on the spicy taste - like Sean's solution, which is to have nine cups of Golden Roland.

Of course. Even if Sean drank nine cups of Golden Roland, he could only gain a little proficiency point.

However, after eating and drinking, Sean felt several malicious glances.

In the slums, people here judge strength by whether they are strong enough or fierce enough.

Sean, no matter how you look at it, there is obviously a big gap between him and the people in the ghetto who judge whether he is strong enough. Therefore, it is naturally a very normal thing for those who think they have a little strength to target Sean. After all, the standard of living in the poor here is only one or two gold coins a month, and Sean is obviously a big fat sheep whether he is dressed or judging from the level of consumption tonight.

To say that no one is moved. That's obviously a joke.

However, for these ordinary people who are not even "apprentices", Sean doesn't care at all.

He tapped lightly on the bar, his fingers tapping on it. There seems to be a unique pattern. To the average person, it sounds like a simplified version of the melody of the sheet music. But it sounded to the tavernkeeper with a distinctly different meaning.

"Boss, do you have any job introductions?"

"I'm just a tavern owner, what job can I introduce to you?" The tavern said without looking up as he wiped the glass in his hand.

"Old Potter said you not only have good food, but also beauty." Sean whispered, handing out a gold coin from his hand.

This is the last part of the Tavern quest.

Sean spent three days doing this errand task, of course, not purely to gain two proficiency points.

His real purpose is to open up the "Underground Mission at the Potter Tavern" system. For this reason, he had to complete the precursor to this task, "Old Porter's Errand". As for the task reward, in addition to the two proficiency points. Another bonus is the opening of this underground quest system.

As one of the three Dark Lords on a par with the Marquis of Flores, Old Porter's Underground Quest is the easiest quest system to open, and it is not like other Dark Kings who need to go through a very cumbersome quest process before they can be opened. Although in terms of rewards, the rewards of the other two Dark Kings' underground missions are very rich, but those rewards that are actually basically equipment are not of much significance to people like Sean.

On the contrary, most of Old Porter's underground missions are rewards such as proficiency points and attribute points, which are more attractive to the current Sean.

Although there is no time limit for the quest "Old Potter's Errand", in fact, if you finish the quest in a short period of time, the higher the rating you will get from Old Porter, so once the "Potter Tavern's Underground Quest" system is officially activated, the higher the level of the quest that can be accepted at the beginning. On the other hand, you must start with low-level tasks and gradually accumulate evaluations before you can accept higher-level tasks.

For example, Sean completed the tasks assigned by Old Potter in three days, and now he can directly accept A-class tasks in this tavern, without starting from F-class tasks. This saved a lot of time for Sean, because at this time, there was only half a month left before the martial arts festival, and he had to strengthen his personal strength as soon as possible in these ten days.

Because just the day before yesterday, the Marquis of Flores had sent an intelligence on the list of players in the silver group of various countries.

Among them, there are several opponents that Sean needs to be cautious about.

After picking an A-rank contract quest from the tavernkeeper, Sean turned and left the humble tavern in the slums.

At this time, several strong men also got up.

"Aru, if I were you, I would never provoke that guy." Seeing that one of the strong men who got up was considered a regular customer, the tavern owner couldn't help but remind, "That's not someone you can deal with." ”

"Little Potter, what's so hard about that skinny monkey." Hearing the tavernkeeper's words, one of the strong men grinned disapprovingly, "Bring us a few glasses of golden Roland, we'll be back soon to taste them." …… The last time I drank this stuff was almost forgotten was a few years ago. ”

"Ugh." Seeing that these strong men had no intention of stopping, the tavern owner looked at their backs and shook his head helplessly.

"Boss, do you need me to take a look with Izuku?" A maid with bewitching makeup next to her asked in a low voice while she was back to the bar to clean up.

"No need." Little Potter shook his head, "Someone who can be directly allowed by his father to accept the contract of his superiors, how can he need your help." …… Be careful that when you go, you will be slaughtered by the other party as an enemy. ”

"Isn't it?" The maid's eyes widened in surprise, "That little guy actually ......"

"Yes." Little Potter nodded, "If I'm not mistaken, that person should be the Duke of the Void." Speaking of this, the tavern keeper reminded again: "Tonight's incident, do you remember to tell the others by the way, as if you didn't see anything, Zhiludao?" We can't afford to provoke such a big man. (To be continued......)
