Chapter 973: Provocation

Tang Shaoyang stood in front of the board, the quest board on the first floor of the Adventurer Guild. The group of ten was the center of attention as not a few adventurers whistled at the sight of Ava and the second female elf. There were eight elf towns on the third floor, but it was too far from Murika.         

"Ignore them. Don\'t lower yourself to their levels. There would be a time for that, but not now. We focus on clearing the third floor," Tang Shaoyang waved his hand as he scanned the poster on the board.     

The quests were differentiated based on rank. Copper Quest, Silver Quest, and so on. There was also a certain difficulty in the quest, from one star to the third star. More stars meant the quest was harder, and the new adventurer had to finish Copper Quest with one star three times before they could take a harder quest.     

"I feel like we should take the test and skip the rank instead of taking Copper Quest," Liang Suyin frowned after scanning all Copper Quests. There was a benefit to taking the test. They could skip the rank based on the test result. They all should get the Gold Rank easily if they take the test.     

"That\'s unnecessary. If we get the Gold Rank, there\'s not much Gold Rank Quest here. Less than fifty Gold Rank Quest, five Epic Rank Quests, and one Myth Rank Quest," Tang Shaoyang shook his head as he took three quests from the board. All were one-star Copper Rank Quests, and all the quests were gathering materials. Three different ingredients for alchemy stuff, it said, were not that dangerous, and the quest was repeatable. They could take the quest repeatedly until the requester took off the quest.     

After choosing the quests, they walked to the counter where the clerk was. He placed the three quests on the counter, "We will take these missions."     

The clerk reached the quest. She had a troubled look on her face when she saw the quest, "I am sorry, but the quest means for an individual, not a party."     

"I know, and all of us will take the same quest," Tang Shaoyang frowned, "Don\'t tell me we can\'t take the same quest? It says repeatable. It should be okay if we take the same quest, no?"     

"Ah, I am sorry. I think you want to take the quest as a party," The girl smiled apologetically, "Can I have your badge, Sir?"     

Tang Shaoyang placed the badge on the counter, and the other nine followed him. The clerk opened the drawer, took out another ten paper quests, and placed each of the papers on top of the badge. The badge glowed, absorbing the paper quest. It happened in a flash, then something new appeared on the badge. Below the rank, it said Copper Rank Quest. The clerk pushed the badge toward Tang Shaoyang after that.     

"What about the other two quests?" He wanted efficiency; hence he wanted to take the three quests at the same time.     

"I am sorry, sir, but you can\'t," The clerk shook her head, "The guild has a rule that Silver and Copper Rank can\'t take more than one quest at one time."     

"What with this nonsense," Tang Shaoyang muttered in a low voice. The clerk heard him and flinched slightly as she thought she had angered the man before her.     

[I think that\'s a reasonable rule because the guild does not want the novice to take more than they can chew. But you are not a novice the guild thinks of, and the rule should be flexible for the travelers, no?] Zowen, the Grand Lightning Magus, spoke in his mind.     

Tang Shaoyang understood the guild\'s perspective on the rule, but he was not the same novice, just like Zowen said, "The rule should be flexible for the traveler, no? We don\'t need to take the quest, and I think it should be fine for us to take three Copper Rank Quest at one time."     

The clerk was stumped as she could not refute that. The Guild Leader allowed the traveler to join the guild without taking the test, contradicting the main rule of the guild. She was about to say that she would consult this with the Guild Leader, but someone else interrupted her.     

"This is the rule of the Adventurer Guild. You have to follow our rule because this is our town, travelers!" The cold voice interrupted them. A man with leather armor having a bow on the back approached the group. The badge hung on his waist, and his rank was Gold Rank. The unknown traveler basically told the group this was not their world, so they had to follow this world\'s rule.     

Tang Shaoyang glanced at the man, then he turned back to the clerk, "We will take the first quest, but we will also gather the materials for the other two quests and finish it altogether when we return. That should be fine, right?"     

He could just take the loophole and do it without informing the clerk, but he was afraid the guild would not accept it. It would just be a waste of time, so he asked.     

The clerk had never encountered such a situation. This kind of quest was for the novice, and the novice usually took the quest one at a time instead of finishing the three quests at the same time, even though it was just a gathering quest. She wanted to go to consult the guild leader, but the infamous Gold Rank Adventurer, Russo, butted in. Despite his capability, the guy had a hot temper. It would be out of hand if she left him with the traveler; she knew that for sure.     

"Are you ignoring me? Or are you deaf? You are in our world, so follow our world\'s rules. If you don\'t want to follow the rule, then leave!" The Gold Rank Adventurer stood in front of Tang Shaoyang.     

The other adventurers whistled in excitement, and some even encouraged the man in front of Tang Shaoyang. Tang Shaoyang picked up the man\'s name from the crowd, Russo.
