Creating a Different World - Chapter 2599

[Chapter 2599 Return to the City]

“Stop!” When Jia Zhengjin returned to the gate of Tongshan City, he was immediately stopped by the guards, “Take off your helmet for inspection!”

“It’s me!” Jia Zhengjin quickly pushed up the wavy steel mask in front of his iron helmet to reveal his face.

The guards stepped forward to take a closer look and were surprised: “Ah! Cohen, why is it you?”

Cohen Hand used to do the lowest-level tasks. Every day, he had to deliver letters, do hard labor, pass messages, and find people for the residents of Tongshan City. He ran around the whole city, so he was a familiar face. Even the guards in front of him had received messages from his family, or he had been asked by him to find someone.

“You, what’s wrong with you?” The guards surrounded him and looked him up and down curiously.

After all, Jia Zhengjin was wearing a set of iron armor, and it looked higher quality than the guards. How could they not be suspicious?

Besides, he didn’t have these armor and weapons when he went out.

“Hehe~” Jia Zhengjin pretended to be proud and scratched his head, “Lucky!”

“What do you mean? What luck?” The guards asked hurriedly.

Jia Zhengjin answered slowly: “I accepted a mission today to explore the ancient tombs in Fenggu Mountain. It turned out that there are a lot of things in the ancient tombs, and these are all found in them. In addition, I also found a few tomb robbers, and monsters in the ancient tombs!”

“Monsters? What kind of monsters can Fenggu Mountain have?” The guards were shocked.

“Do you know? There are many skeletons and zombies in the ancient tombs in Fenggu Mountain!” Jia Zhengjin pretended to be mysterious.

“Oh my God!” The guards looked at each other, “Then how did you come back alive? With your strength.”

“So I’m lucky!” Jia Zhengjin said with a smile, “Didn’t I say it just now? When we went in, there were tomb robbers inside! Those tomb robbers were super powerful, and the skeletons and zombies in the ancient tomb were no match for them. They killed all the way to the innermost part. It turned out that there were even more terrifying monsters in the innermost part. They fought to the death with the monsters, and finally died in the fire. I waited until the fire was gone before I dared to go in. Whether it was the tomb robbers or the monsters, they were all burned to charcoal. Then I was lucky enough to pick up a full set of armor and weapons, and a lot of silver coins!”

“Is it true?” The guards couldn’t believe it, “Are you lucky?”

“That’s right!” Jia Zhengjin took out a silver coin, pretended to hesitate, and finally handed it to one of the guards, “Here, please have a drink after work, and don’t tell people I have money!”

The guards’ eyes sparkled when they saw the silver coins, and they looked at each other and nodded repeatedly.

“You are willing to take out a silver coin to treat us to a drink. It seems that you have really made a fortune! Tell me, how much did you earn?”

“That’s right. There must be a lot of gold and silver treasures in that ancient tomb. This silver coin is too little!”

“How much did you earn? You won’t just give us a silver coin after you have money?”

Facing the guards’ questioning, Jia Zhengjin hurriedly said, “No, no! In fact, I only got 32 silver coins. There are not so many gold and silver treasures in it. I think the tomb robbers must have visited more than once. Most of the gold and silver treasures must have been stolen by them, right? Or there are not so many treasures in the tomb. Really, I am definitely not lying to you! Besides, even if there are so many treasures, I can’t bring them back, right?” As he spoke

, he opened his arms and turned around.

The guards looked at each other and nodded, “That’s right. Okay, you can go in!”

“Okay!”

After passing through the city gate smoothly, Jia Zhengjin went straight to the Adventurer’s Guild.

As soon as he arrived at the guild, he was immediately surrounded by a large group of adventurers who were resting.

“Cohen?”

“It’s you, kid?”

“What’s going on? You looked like that when you went out, but you’re wearing this when you come back?”

“Your armor looks good! Where did you get it?”

“Is this iron gun expensive?”

“Did you just buy it? Where did you get the money? How can you afford such good equipment?”

“Did you steal it?”

“Tell me the truth, did you steal someone’s stuff?”

Usually no one paid attention to this little guy, but when he came back wearing a set of iron equipment that looked good, it immediately caused a sensation.

After all, with the little money Cohen earned every day, it was good enough to barely make a living, and it was impossible for him to afford any of the equipment.

“Make way, please make way!” Jia Zhengjin could only shout in front of the siege, “Wait for me to hand in the task first!”

The adventurers stepped back a little and surrounded him to the task handover point.

“Molly, I’m here to submit the task of exploring the ancient tomb!” Jia Zhengjin took out a piece of kraft paper given by the guild in advance from his arms. On it was a full map of the ancient tomb drawn by himself, as well as information about each location, including the mechanism and monster division. At the same time, he took out a butterfly-shaped iron block knocked off the BOSS armor.

Molly was also very surprised by his equipment. When she saw the information and the iron block, she showed an even more surprised expression: “What’s going on? Cohen, please explain it carefully from beginning to end!”

“Yes! Tell me quickly!” The adventurers around him stared at him, their faces full of curiosity.

“Then I will tell you what happened today in detail!” Jia Zhengjin repeated what he had just said to the guard in front of Molly. In fact, this was a story he made up before he came back, but he had lived for thousands of years and had a lot of experience in how to make people believe. It was like telling a story, making everyone fascinated.

When he finished speaking, both Molly and the adventurers stared at him in amazement, envious and jealous of his good luck.

The other staff members of the guild also gathered together. After listening, someone immediately took the butterfly-shaped object to check it. The president also personally ordered several guild cadres to quickly investigate the ancient tomb and verify its authenticity.

Jia Zhengjin handed in the task, but Molly did not let him leave immediately. Instead, she asked him to wait on the side first: “Cohen, our people need to verify it before preparing your reward according to the situation. If everything you said is true, it is far more than an E-level exploration task. You can get more points and bonuses. At the same time, depending on the level of the task, there will be additional rewards issued by the guild. Please be patient and wait over there for a while.”

“Okay!” Jia Zhengjin knew that the Adventurer’s Guild would definitely verify it, so he asked Nuwa to help arrange the scene in advance to ensure that his lies would not be exposed. There was nothing to worry about at the moment, so he found an empty table and sat down.

“Hula~” As soon as he sat down, many adventurers immediately surrounded him, “Cohen, tell me more about your visit to the ancient tomb?”

“Would you like to sell this set of equipment on you?”

“Sell the equipment to me?”
