If it weren't for the existence of [Infinity], their team would definitely have been ambushed and wiped out by the Rasta Bear just like those corpses!
But Chen Ming on the side didn't think so - judging from the mindless and reckless fighting style of these Rasta bears, their IQ should be similar to that of bears in modern society, and they definitely didn't deliberately ambush adventurers.
He estimated that this should be simply the result of natural selection + human intervention:
Perhaps a long time ago, only a small number of Rasta bears liked to lie down and roll in the mud.
In fact, there are animals on Earth that enjoy bathing in mud, including pigs, elephants, buffalo, and rhinos. The main reasons for this include cooling down in the summer (mud absorbs heat through evaporation, rapidly cooling the body), sun protection (mud covers the skin and blocks UV rays), insect repellent (mud creates a physical barrier to prevent mosquito bites), and masking odors, helping animals avoid predators.
As adventurers continue to raid at night, the Rasta bears lying on the shore with clean fur have a higher mortality rate, while the Rasta bears that like to bathe in the mud are more likely to survive in the dark!
They also bathe in the mud with their offspring...
This is why the Golden Legend team encountered the situation where most of the Rasta bears were in the mudflats, with only a small number on the shore.
Chen Ming did not explain to the team what natural selection was. He walked over and put the Rasta bear's skin, meat and tail into the system space, successfully diverting their attention.
Amid their puzzled gazes, Chen Ming said calmly, "This is my space magic. It can store items."
Seeing Chen Ming's calm demeanor, the team members looked at him with even more awe.
Jin Lani, the bravest one, walked to Chen Ming's side.
"Thank you for your help this time."
She bowed and continued, "If it weren't for you, we would have been wiped out... Although I suspected you were extremely powerful when we were in the Adventurer's Guild, I never expected you to be this strong!"
"My help isn't free!"
Chen Ming immediately started the part of repaying a favor, which he was best at.
"what?"
"Haha, don't be nervous, you just need to help me spread the word!"
Chen Ming spoke frankly, "If I make a name for myself in the Adventurer's Guild, I'll be able to get special recruitment and study at the Magic University..."
Hearing this, Jin Lani understood!
Anyone who lives in the magical city of Sharia knows the admission requirements of the Magic University. Either you apply in September every year, or you are specially recruited by invitation of the principal... This new adventurer named [Infinity], although his magic power is rated at the god level, he is not yet a god-level magician!
The other party wants to enter the Magic University naturally in order to be promoted to the god level, which is very reasonable.
"Although this isn't enough to repay you for saving my life, please rest assured that we at Golden Legend will definitely help you promote it!"
Jin Lani patted her chest and made a promise on behalf of her teammates!
Next, it’s time to embark on the road to triumph.
Although the crusade is over, the commission is not yet completed - until the evidence of the commission is brought back and exchanged for money, it is all part of the adventure.
……
After Chen Ming and the [Golden Legend] team returned to the magical city of Sharia, they first went to the building behind the Adventurer's Guild to sell the skin and meat of the Rasta bear.
A total of 1000 gold coins were sold.
The Rasta Bear is a B-level monster after all. Both its fur and meat are purchased by noble lords at high prices, so there is no need to worry about the Adventurer's Guild losing money.
The guild could even make a killing...
Then, a group of six people walked into the Adventurer's Guild Hall and submitted the task using the Rasta Bear's tail.
A total of 131 were defeated, and the reward was 13100 gold coins.
Since Chen Ming was not a member of the Golden Legend team, the two sides naturally distributed the work according to their work:
Chen Ming killed 127 of them alone and received 12700 gold coins.
The [Golden Legend] team only killed 4 monsters, so they were allocated 400 gold coins.
In addition, because they were responsible for skinning and cutting, Chen Ming gave them a portion of the gold coins earned from selling the skin and meat.
He believes that this distribution method is fair and just.
But the five members of the [Golden Legend] team raised objections - they felt that they had made a lot of money by surviving this time, and wanted to give all the rewards to Chen Ming.
After all, if you lose money, you can earn it again, but if you lose your life, you lose everything!
Chen Ming sternly refused and sent them away—he could get as much money as he wanted! It would be better to spend money to buy people's hearts.
Besides, how could it be so easy to repay his life-saving grace?
He can never repay his kindness in his lifetime, and the interest will only grow higher and higher. One day, he will have to use Jin Bisha to pay off the debt!
"If you hadn't been here, I might have..."
Before leaving, Jin Bisha looked down at the tips of her shoes, her ears red as she said, "Anyway, thank you so much!"
After saying this, the girl trotted after Jin Lani and left the Adventurer's Guild.
After the five members of the [Golden Legend] team left, Chen Ming noticed some unusual gazes.
It was the greedy gaze that looked at prey.
There are two ways for adventurers in this world to adventure: one is to adventure outside the city, and the other is to adventure within the city.
The one targeting Chen Ming at this moment is the kind of guy who likes to take risks in the city.
This is understandable. Chen Ming and his team just received a large amount of mission rewards, and the most important thing is that the vast majority of it was pocketed by Chen Ming.
This means that as long as you kill him quietly, you can get tens of thousands of gold coins, and it is inevitable that you will be targeted.
Although Chen Ming tested out his god-level magic power in the Adventurer's Guild two days ago, the mobility of adventurers is very high, and most of the adventurers present today have never seen Chen Ming.
There are inevitably some who are blinded by greed and desire, and want to seek wealth and fame at the risk of their lives...
If they just think about it, that would be fine. After all, judging by actions rather than heart, no one in the world is perfect.
But if he dares to take action, Chen Ming will have no choice but to send him to hell.
Thinking of this, Chen Ming took a step forward and prepared to leave the Adventurer's Guild.
Suddenly a foot stretched out, as if to block his progress.
Seeing this, Chen Ming couldn't help but sigh inwardly: Finally, he appeared! The provocative kicking scene is common in light novels!
He had often seen similar plots in anime before, but he never expected that one day he would encounter such a situation himself.
He stopped and looked at the man who stretched out his foot curiously.
The man had an annoying and frivolous smile on his face, and the people at the same table also had malicious smiles on their faces, staring at Chen Ming intently, as if they were looking at a weak fat sheep.
All the adventurers around were silent, no one stepped forward to stop them, and they looked as if it had nothing to do with them - after all, they were adventurers, not heroes, and they had to accept a mission before defeating monsters. Adventurers would not do anything that had no benefits!
Of course, if Chen Ming issued a guard mission at this time, I believe that many principled adventurers would stand up and uphold justice...
But he didn't need a guard, at least not in this situation.
"Yeah, yeah, yeah..."
Chen Ming couldn't help but sigh and continued to walk forward calmly.
With his magically enhanced strength, the legs in front of him naturally could not withstand his footsteps.
"Hey, hey, it hurts."
The man stood up with a strange voice, threatening Chen Ming while slowly approaching him.
Because he was not wearing armor, one could clearly see the strong muscles bulging under his clothes.
There was a large gold chain around his neck, which swayed with the man's movements.
He was wearing metal gloves on his hands, and when he clenched his fists, there was a "clicking, clicking" sound of metal friction.
Seeing the opponent getting closer and closer, Chen Ming ignited the flames of war and taunted:
"Sorry, your legs are too short, so I didn't see it... This is my reason, do you understand me?"
"……asshole!"
Chen Ming's sarcasm made the man look dangerous.
However, when the man saw the Adventurer's Guild guards watching him, he calmed down and said through gritted teeth, "I don't care what your reasons are. You hit my leg and broke it... But I'm a magnanimous person. As long as you can compensate me with 1 gold coins, I will forgive you."
“Heh, heh heh…”
Chen Ming couldn't help but sneer.
"……why are you laughing?"
"Nothing, I just couldn't help laughing when you said this classic line that goes so well with the minions... Get out of the way!"
"What if I don't let you, you little brat!"
"You won't let me? Then I'll have to send you away, a thousand miles away!"
"?I'll leave naturally after I get the compensation!"
The man turned around and said to his table mates with a smile, "Oh, look, this guy seems to be angry!"
After saying that, he pushed Chen Ming hard, but it was as if he was pushing against a steel wall, unable to move at all.
Not only that, because of the strong reaction force, he took two steps back and fell on his butt.
This immediately caused the surrounding adventurers to burst into laughter, and the guild was filled with a happy atmosphere.
"...You bastard! How dare you tease me... You look down on me like that? Go to hell!"
The man stood up in anger, drew a dagger from his waist and stabbed Chen Ming.
However, the next moment, he suddenly disappeared!
Only some adventurers with better eyesight could notice that at that moment, Chen Ming's figure also flashed.
That's right. Chen Ming used [Teleport] to teleport the man in front of him to a height of ten thousand meters, thousands of miles away, allowing him to experience [Earth Drop]. The man was probably in free fall at this moment, crying and shouting, "Fuck! I want to go home! I want to go home!!!"
There was a sudden commotion and exclamations in the Adventurer's Guild.
Although the adventurers did not stand up to seek justice in the conflict between the man and Chen Ming just now, they were all watching the show intently.
Whether Chen Ming beat up the man or the man succeeded in blackmailing someone, both results were within everyone's expectations.
But the man's sudden disappearance was completely beyond everyone's expectations.
Most people are very curious - how exactly did Chen Ming make a living person disappear in an instant?
The Adventurer's Guild guards were about to come over to mediate, but when they saw the troublemaker disappear, they stopped and returned to their original position. This was the rule of the Adventurer's Guild. As long as there wasn't a fight within the guild, the guards would not interfere. They would only intervene if a fight actually broke out. After all, adventurers were a free profession, and most couldn't accept too many restrictions...
"...So, what are your plans next? You can go together to save trouble. I don't want to waste time on this kind of thing!" Chen Ming turned around and challenged the man's tablemates. If they were stubborn, Chen Ming would have no choice but to send them to meet their companions.
"what?"
Upon hearing this, the man's companions were terrified and slid to their knees, prostrating themselves before the ground as they explained, "No, no, no! Our companions have offended you! We are truly sorry!"
"Tsk~"
Chen Ming shook his head in boredom and walked out of the Adventurer's Guild.
……
Time flies, and three months have passed in the blink of an eye.
Early in the morning, Chen Ming set out from his home in the magical city of Sharia.
"Hey, Infinity, thanks to your help last time! You're as reliable as the rumors say!"
"Good morning, Master Infinite. Are you going on an emergency mission today as well? If you go, we'll go too!"
"Hey, Infinity, what are your thoughts? Do you want to join our A-rank adventure team [Thunder Trial] directly?"
"Hey, hey, hey, didn't we agree not to poach anyone? Master Infinity belongs to everyone!"
"Oh, I'm so sorry, I forgot."
"..."
Along the way, familiar adventurers kept greeting Chen Ming.
Since the adventurer name he registered was [Infinity·Quantitative Easing], most adventurers called him [Infinity].
Chen Ming has successfully taken a good first step towards his small goal of becoming famous.
Chapter 114: Underground Demon King
In the past three months, Chen Ming has taken on 36 emergency tasks, and the success rate of the tasks is 100%!
His adventurer level rose from F-level to C-level with great momentum.
