Chapter 49 Adventurers are good at performing

As a seasoned adventurer, Micah has handled countless strange objects, which can offer Otto some assistance.

"You've only been an adventurer for a short time, so you still lack understanding of some wondrous substances."

Let me give you some additional information.

We call substances in this mortal world that possess extraordinary power "wonderful objects." In fact, there are many such wondrous objects; if we only consider fire, there are quite a few, with the spirit of the fire element being the most prominent.

Micah simply stated.

"The twelve months of the year correspond to twelve superior beings."

One of the six months is symbolized by the kingdom's six gods, while the other six months are divided by the six elemental spirits.

One of them is the spirit of fire.

The Fire Elemental Spirit possesses immense extraordinary power. If you can receive His blessing and obtain a wisp of the Fire Elemental Spirit's essence, then advancing to a higher level of extraordinary profession should not be a problem.

"But the spirit of fire is ethereal and elusive. Apart from a few families that serve Him, I have never heard of anyone else receiving this kind of blessing, unless you are a bastard child of one of their families."

But upon hearing this, Otto simply chuckled.

"How could I, an orphan abandoned in a village in the pioneering area, possibly be a descendant of such a large family?"

Skip this.

Micah and Goren were not surprised by this.

After all, everyone lives in the development zone, and their respective circumstances are pretty much predictable. Even if there are descendants of large families, they would have already shown their characteristics.

Upon hearing Otto's words, Goren recalled a kind of extraordinary flame.

"I remember when I forged my fists, I used cold iron."

It is said that this substance coexists with an ice flame. If you have the chance to find a vein of cold iron, you might be able to use this ice flame as a material for advancement.

Goren raised his hand and demonstrated to Otto.

His right hand gradually turned into a metallic color, and even emitted a faint chill, which was clearly the characteristic of the so-called cold iron.

In addition, Micah recommended many fire options to Otto, including extraordinary fires nurtured by underground mushrooms, as well as legendary items left over from the cataclysmic events of the world. There were so many types that Otto couldn't decide for a while.

Seeing this, Micah simply patted him on the shoulder and said patiently.

"You only have one chance to choose an extraordinary career, so it's always good to be cautious."

After this incident is over, I'll take you to buy a book of strange artifacts so you can study those flames properly.

This place isn't far from the Demon Realm beyond humans; perhaps we can find suitable items there.

Micah let out a long sigh of relief and said solemnly.

"Otto, don't be impatient."

Otto knew that Micah was worried that he would end up like that big guy, lacking patience and ultimately choosing a path with no future.

Otto simply nodded.

"I will choose the appropriate tools for promotion; I won't act rashly."

Seeing his companions growing up one by one, Otto felt he couldn't slack off.

Now that he has a clue about the so-called strange object, he naturally needs to give it serious consideration.

Just as the three were talking about the fire artifact, they arrived at the Wanderer's Tavern.

This is a very chaotic-looking tavern, with garbage everywhere and no one cleaning it up. It's also noisy and the security doesn't seem to be very good. It's obviously a gathering place for criminals.

Micah was used to this; he kicked open the door and rushed inside.

Everyone around seemed to recognize Micah. The moment they saw the dwarf, the surrounding noise stopped, and they even silently made way for Micah, as if they were afraid of something.

Clearly, this is the aftermath of yesterday's attack on Jared.

Goren declared that the Dragon Slayer Blade still existed, and because of this, no one dared to underestimate this incomplete adventurer team anymore.

But Micah didn't care. He just carried the middle-aged man and asked the bartender to find them a suitable place to rest.

Micah first poured a bucket of ale on the man to sober him up so they could identify the thief's appearance.

However, Otto did find this flamboyant behavior somewhat inappropriate.

"What if the thief finds out and gets away?"

But Goren told Otto not to worry too much.

"Don't worry, this male servant has already revealed the key to their alliance."

The two made a blood oath: if the thief abandoned the servant and escaped on his own, the blood oath would devour him completely after the agreed-upon day tomorrow, leaving the thief with no way out but death.

Therefore, the other party will inevitably come to rescue him. We brought him here so that the thief can see clearly and be told that time is running out.

With Goren's explanation, Otto learned that the mages had once created an alchemical artifact called Blood Oath.

These alchemical items are quite valuable, requiring several gold coins to craft.

The male servant and the thief entered into this strange contract.

This contract is said to be made by drawing on the blood of demons and possesses powerful binding properties.

If either party refuses to keep their oath, they will inevitably suffer the consequences, and the flames of the abyss will burn them to ashes.

According to the male servant, their agreed escape time was tomorrow.

If one party fails to appear, the other party will be considered to be in breach of contract, and the thief will be severely punished, if not killed.

Therefore, tonight is his last chance.

Micah's actions, to put it bluntly, were to let the thief come to their door, saving them the trouble of searching everywhere.

As they were talking, Micah asked the bartender to bring over a few more glasses of good wine, as he wanted to have a good drink tonight.

But Goren, standing to the side, was getting anxious.

"Mr. Micah, have you forgotten?"

"You promised us before, we can't drink those expensive wines anymore."

Goren felt that his team's funds were in dire straits, and drinking expensive wine now would be a waste of time and money.

Besides, your spellcasting requires these high-end spirits, so let's leave the costs for the adventure.

Goren patiently tried to dissuade Micah, but Micah wouldn't listen at all.

Micah was being very stubborn today; despite their advice, he insisted on drinking good wine.

The bartender was naturally delighted to have business coming in, and immediately poured several large glasses and brought them to the table.

Seeing the wine in his glass, Micah was naturally happy to accept it.

Goren, who was standing to the side, was about to say something more, but at that moment, he was surprised to find Micah, who was sitting with his back to the bar, winking at him discreetly.

This action made Goren immediately understand. He looked at Micah, patted him on the shoulder, and said helplessly.

"We're about to make a fortune today; maybe we should have a good drink."

Goren picked up his beer and was about to drink it when he saw what Micah was up to.
