Even goblins are dangerous in this other world!

The fat man knelt on the ground in despair, his whole body trembling.

He realized he had been tricked by Luo Xiu.

He foresaw his own end, a dead end.

In utter despair, he finally gave up and tore off his disguise.

He knelt on the ground and roared at Luo Xiu, who was preparing to leave:

"You think you can just leave? Lady Margaret won't let you get away with this! If you don't agree to join the Bat Catchers, you'll end up like me—"

call out! ! !

A yellow arrow of light pierced the fat man's heart.

He fell into a pool of blood, his eyes filled with resentment.

behind him.

Botta slowly walked out, smiling as he spoke:

“It’s a pleasure to meet you, Mr. White. My name is Botta.”

He extended his palm, waiting for Luo Xiu's response.

This is one of his tests.

For over thirty years, his favorite thing to do was invest in promising young people.

Judging a young person's character often only requires looking at these kinds of details.

When faced with a handshake from someone who has killed someone in front of them, a thoughtful person will ask questions, while a wary person will step back and hesitate.

But those with courage will...

Luo Xiu smiled slightly and extended his hand as well.

The two gently shook hands.

Luo Xiu blinked. The person in front of him was quite strong, a bit stronger than Xiu Pu.

Chapter 88 Leila, Go Join the Knights!

Through the [examination], it can be seen that the yellow light emanating from the man named Bota is showing signs of green light appearing.

This also means that Botta, like Old White back then, has reached the pinnacle of the third order and is only one step away from the fourth order.

But Botta is clearly much younger than old White; he looks no more than his late thirties.

According to the world's standards for judging people who don't have cheat codes.

That's already considered quite talented.

"Sir White, I hope my actions just now did not frighten you."

Botta spoke softly, his voice gentle:

"Don't worry, this will definitely not cause you any trouble. Even if I don't deal with it, the person in charge of this arena will take care of him."

“The methods are even much more cruel.”

Luo Xiu nodded and smiled:

"Then I must thank you, Lord Bota. So, did you come here specifically to kill someone, Lord Bota?"

Botta laughed:

"Of course not. I just dealt with him incidentally. I'm here to ask Lord White if he would be willing to join our chamber of commerce?"

As he spoke, Bota took out a metal card with his identity written on it from his pocket and handed it to Luo Xiu.

"My name is Bota, and I am one of the three leaders of the Chamber of Commerce outside the main city of Kanriel, mainly responsible for the buying and selling of goods to foreign countries."

Luo Xiu took the metal card from Bota's hand.

Upon first touch, it has a smooth and hard texture. When shaken slightly, you can see the surface shimmering with iridescent light, making it look unlike ordinary iron or copper.

"This card is made of a material called rainbow iron."

Bota, smiling, explained:

"This material has no other use than to emit a natural seven-colored light. The piece you have in your hand should be worth only one silver coin."

Luo Xiu nodded.

He glanced at the description of Botta's position on the card.

Botha's job essentially involved the import and export of goods between Canril and other cities.

"Why did Your Excellency Botta invite me?"

Luo Xiu smiled:

"I just happened to kill that demon bat; it wasn't as strong as it looked."

Botta smiled slightly:

“I know, but I see your potential. If you are willing to join our chamber of commerce, I can promise you 20 points per month, and that’s just the basics.”

20 points.

This means that if Luo Xiu wants to enter the inner city of Kanriel, it will take him about four years just to earn a salary from the Chamber of Commerce.

That's probably a very fast pace.

However, Luo Xiu has no plans to enter the inner city for the time being.

He kept in mind the books Old White had given him and needed to create some chaos as soon as possible.

If one goes to work at the Chamber of Commerce as planned, the consequences are still unknown.

"No, Your Excellency Botta, I have some other plans at the moment, so... I'm very sorry."

Bota was slightly taken aback when he heard Luo Xiu's refusal.

He didn't expect the young man in front of him to refuse him, after all, he thought the offer he made was already quite generous.

Moreover, no one should be able to resist the allure of the inner city.

He seemed to realize something and came to his senses.

Luo Xiu, who was standing in front of her, was not a local, so he didn't know much about the inner city. No wonder he refused her.

He then smiled slightly:

"Mr. White, I still hope you can give it a try."

"After joining our chamber of commerce, everyone will have the opportunity to visit the inner city. How about I make an exception and give you this opportunity to see the inner city first, and then you can make a decision?

After speaking, Bota exuded confidence.

This condition can be described as flawless.

Luo Xiu could go to the inner city without paying any price, and he believed Luo Xiu would not refuse.

After Luo Xiu has seen the inner city, he will definitely agree to stay.

But as Luo Xiu listened to Bota's conditions, a sense of unease arose within him.

After all, Bota was being overly enthusiastic.

Although Bota's emotional and mental state seemed normal after the examination, Luo Xiu was somewhat worried about his unusual enthusiasm.

Keep in mind that Count Larry was waiting for him somewhere at that moment.

He shook his head:

"Your Excellency Botta, I think we should forget it. I really have other plans."

Upon hearing this, Bota looked at Luo Xiu in disbelief.

Unexpectedly, Luo Xiu rejected him again.

But then he thought about it again and came to some understanding.

After the personality test, he felt that Luo Xiu was a courageous young man.

Perhaps it was precisely because of this courage that Luo Xiu firmly believed that the path he had chosen would be better than what he was offered.

He smiled helplessly:

"Well, Mr. White, it seems we don't yet have the kinship to work together."

"Of course, if you change your mind later, you can come to me anytime. I usually stay in the Chamber of Commerce on the right side of the main city."

Luo Xiu nodded.

He felt no aversion to the gentle-looking, dark-haired man before him.

"By the way, Lord White, could you tell me what you plan to do on the outskirts of the main city?"

Botta began:

"After all, it's impossible to survive on the outskirts of the main city without a job."

“The main city’s outer perimeter will deduct one point from your score every month after you enter or leave the city. People with no points will be expelled from the main city.”

Upon hearing this, Luo Xiu glanced at Bota.

He revealed his original plan.

A contract that states there are free places at the Adventurers' Academy.

That was the reward that old White helped him exchange for those nobles from the capital.

When Luo Xiu received the contract, it shimmered with light, proving that he was the owner of the spot.

Bota's eyes widened:

"So you're here to join the academy in Kanriel. I was blind to your greatness."

He bowed slightly in apology.

"How about this, sir? To make amends, I'll make the decision: you and your companion can enter the city through the fifth gate, saving you the trouble of queuing at the second gate."

Luo Xiu stared at Bota for a while, then nodded in agreement.
