Chapter 71 – Chapter 71 Next Plan
A good war for intermediate adventurers to gain experience did not always happen.
Rather, dungeons, where new adventures always existed, were the main focus for adventurers.
Dungeons repeatedly appeared and disappeared according to the times.
In some cases, like the Palmo family, monopolizing and managing a single dungeon and constantly using a training ground, there were also cases where an abandoned dungeon near Sanburnique completely crumbled and disappeared, just like Jason did.
In addition, new dungeons that the adventurers guild did not understand were also discovered and created.
Among them, it was different in which dungeon to enter to become stronger most efficiently and earn a lot of money.
Adventurers’ success and failure also depended on which dungeon they chose.
Nineyar told the secret method used by the Dark Elves to become stronger.
Spear spoke of a dungeon secretly used only by the thieves of the Wolf family.
Janie was talking about a hot dungeon among adventurers these days.
And Jason, who was slowly listening to the story, spoke.
“I’ve been thinking about it.”
The women all shut their mouths at Jason’s words.
“I don’t think getting stronger is the problem.”
Spea asked.
“Then, what else are you thinking about, Bocchan?”
“As expected, I felt that I couldn’t do anything alone while handling the work of San Brunik and Gray Mountains this time.”
“We are there.”
“You are my limbs. We need people who go beyond that.”
It also required more load.
If he had more subordinates, he would have been able to rule Sanburnique without borrowing his father’s power.
And the Gray Mountains wouldn’t have received the help of the Red Dragon.
His father or his connections with the Red Dragon Lord were also his strength, but he wanted more than that.
The older brothers and sisters, who are now the strongest rivals and targets of revenge, each had their own power.
Tigris has a thug in the name of protecting drugs.
Daphne had a gang called the Hound that sold violence for money.
Even Talaia had her shoulder in the name of managing the brothel.
Watching the War of the Gray Mountains this time, I felt a few things once again.
Superman could change the game of war.
And if the enemy had a superman, it was the subordinates right below him that would decide the war.
‘Syrasoni, who is said to be the best fighter on the Korean peninsula, was also lynched while playing Dokgodai and retired.’
It could have happened to Jason too.
“And let’s get stronger slowly and carefully.”
Even if it wasn’t so, the fact that he became a mid-level thief and had the ability to assassinate mid-level adventurers was becoming a fire here and there.
No rogue has ever demonstrated such an assassination ability.
Even Demeter, who is the best at assassination, couldn’t show that it was killing three adventurers of the same level in one night.
“Right now, the reason I’m less vigilant is because I’m still in the intermediate level. If I become a senior like them, I don’t know who will join hands with whom.”
It would have been easier to just ignore it, saying that it was only an intermediate level, as it is now.
“First of all, let’s raise our heads a bit for the next thing.”
I didn’t need someone close enough to trust and trust me like these women do now.
He needed a subordinate who would move at the right moment for the right amount of money.
It was an arrogant and naive idea to fill all the subordinates around with only loyal ones.
As it grew in size, all kinds of humans were mixed.
Among them, there will be people who only want money, and there will be people who are dark inside.
Even such people could be used in the right place to grow the organization.
Jason asked Tria.
“How is your income now?”
“The tax coming in from Sanburnique is about 9000 gold every day. And the sale of love gel is about 5000 gold.”
He was making a lot of money considering he was running several kissing rooms and earning 600 gold every day.
“Then, if I quickly deal with the things I have to pay to the Duke of Quater, will I be able to earn 14,000 gold every day?”
Jason asked, looking at Janey this time.
As for active adventurers, Janey, who was also an adventurer, knew the best.
“How much does it cost per day to hire a low-level adventurer?”
“If you formally request an adventurer’s guild, it costs about 4000 gold for those with the most reputation.”
“It is more expensive than I thought.”
“Because I only use the Adventurer’s Guild when I have to risk my life to take care of it.”
“How much are the cheaper ones?”
“The minimum amount is about 300 gold.”
“It’s 300 gold per day.”
Hearing this made me realize how crazy the elf king of the Gray Mountains was.
They hired a lot of adventurers just in the name of protecting nature.
Jason asked Spia.
“I can see why Daphne’s hound troop is making good money.”
“Yes. Besides, he is also a skill. They do not hesitate to take orders for illegal jobs that are not handled by the adventurer guild.”
Jason needed those too.
People who will do the right thing without saying anything.
And people who are on standby and ready to move when you need them.
Seeing how Edgar, the king of elves, was in trouble because he couldn’t find the adventurers he wanted, it was also not a reliable way to find people from the adventurer’s guild whenever he needed them.
“Even if you hire one person for a month, is it 9000 gold?”
“Normally there is no such thing as an adventurer’s guild.”
When hiring adventurers, most of them were hired for a day or two.
Travel time was not calculated.
It was over in about three days at the most.
But hiring Jason the way he wanted was too wasteful.
It was also burdensome for Jason, who ruled the underworld in Sanburnique.
Jason asked Spia.
“Then how is the hound maintained?”
“I usually train individually. All meals and lodging are provided. You can get anything you want, whether it’s women or alcohol. And when you get a job, you get extra pay. In addition to the usual salary.”
“But does that give you a reason to work for the Wolf family while doing dirty things?”
“They said that if they die last, they will pay for the resurrection.”
“Resurrection cost?”
It was clever.
Basically, the adventurer’s guild was operated by arranging work for adventurers like freelancers and taking part of the commission money.
It is said to take the lead in advancing the interests of adventurers, but when an adventurer dies, nothing is done.
However, Hound, who had to do dirty work, was rather taking care of his subordinates in that area.
“But the cost of resurrection won’t be so expensive.”
“The lower class is number 1. Intermediate 3 times. It is said that the advanced level supports the cost of reviving 10 times. And they say you can increase the number of resurrections later by paying the money you earned in advance.”
“That’s a smart way. If the unit is managed well and there are few casualties, the Wolf family will actually spend less money.”
Then those who were not afraid to do dirty work would want to work at the Hound all the more.
It was better than living as a moderate adventurer.
Jason suddenly remembered the hounds that died in the Gray Mountains War.
Daphne’s sister’s subordinates in the dwarf camp were not one or two.
If you try to resurrect them all, a lot of the money Daphne has accumulated will be destroyed.
‘Even if Daphne’s sister tried to kill me right away, I wouldn’t have anything to say.’
However, Daphne was Gu Yeon-hu, who killed himself himself in his previous life, and they were not on good terms in this life either.
I was just complaining.
Jason put his refreshing mood behind for a while and focused on his work again.
“We will follow the same method. Because if there is a good method, you have to follow it.”
“But it will take a lot of time. Intermediate and above adventurers must be accustomed to living freely. Even if you hire and raise low-level adventurers, you never know when they will grow and become a plausible force. It might be better to hire adventurers whenever needed.”
“Let’s think about that again.”
Jason started thinking of a new method.

After the war, Christ returned to the capital.
He came to his grandfather’s study at Jeffrey’s call.
“Okay. What did you learn from the war?”
“Yes. I learned a lot.”
War can see more people die than dungeons.
And Jeffrey thought that no matter how strong an adventurer, he could learn a lot from seeing him die from a blind arrow.
Geoffrey already knew from reports how Igris lived in the Gray Mountains.
He went to war in moderation, flirted with elven women, and did booze and drugs.
It was exactly what he expected.
He was at the level of his expectations, so his disappointment was not that great.
And this Greek, who didn’t know that, rather shrugged his shoulders and said:
“I’m rather warlike, right?”
“What?”
Geoffrey was dumbfounded and Igris didn’t notice.
“Because if it’s an enemy, you can kill it to your heart’s content. To be honest, in the dungeon, the thief scouted and based on that information, I had to fight this way or that way. There were many frustrating things. I definitely realized that while experiencing the battlefield this time.”
