After the Adventurer's Guild was established, because the branches of Nafu City and Monster Mountain Range were not far apart, there were many new tasks immediately, such as the task of collecting certain magic materials, or hunting the furs of certain Warcraft, etc.

Also, Claire took the initiative to publish a task about exploring the branches of the Monster Mountain Range, to find out the types of Warcraft and the distribution of magic materials inside, so that we can better arrange corresponding tasks. This was done by Claire himself, in order to be able to quickly and better carry out the work of the Adventurer's Guild. After learning about it, York, the person in charge of the Adventurer's Guild, was very cooperative and put the task in the most conspicuous position.

Some tasks have been published by the Adventurer's Guild on the list for a long time, such as the furs of World of Warcraft and some common magic materials. After they collect them and reach a certain amount, they will sell them to firms engaged in this business at a higher price. As the city lord of Nafu City, Claire can get a share of the pie.

In addition to the long-term tasks issued by the Adventurer's Guild, Claire also issued some long-term tasks on the task list, such as collecting some rare Magic Ore or rare materials. These resources are still available in the Monster Mountain Range.

Claire collected these magic materials mainly for the equipment industry in the North District. Those equipment cannot be made by simply hammering iron. If high-quality and above equipment does not add a certain amount of Magic Ore to increase the hardness and toughness, it will easily be torn apart by the claws of Warcraft.

There is also the matter of adding enchantments and inscriptions to equipment. Currently, only a few blacksmiths on Blacksmith Street have this skill, and most other blacksmiths do not. Therefore, if it develops in the future, Claire will consider going to other cities to recruit some talents in this field to directly form a complete industrial chain.

Recycle the materials obtained by adventurers at low prices, process them, multiply them by more than ten times, and then sell them to the other party.

As a result, there was an endless stream of adventurers traveling between the Monster Mountain Range branch and Nafu City. Every day, adventurers could be seen walking in from the city gate carrying huge monster corpses, and then rushed to the Adventurer's Guild in the North District to deliver tasks. Nafu City became more prosperous than before.

After delivering the materials required for the mission, most adventurers will take the remaining materials to the market and sell them themselves.

For example, the mission requires the fur of Gale Wolf, but the recycling price of other materials on Gale Wolf is not that high. The adventurers will hand over the fur. As for the magic materials such as wolf claws and Monster Core, they will be stored by themselves and sold at a stall in the market where adventurers gather. If they meet people in need, they can sell them at a good price.

Among the long-term tasks issued by Claire is a task of recycling the meat of World of Warcraft. The price is not very high, but compared to the recycling price of the Adventurer's Guild, it is already good. And generally speaking, the demand for the flesh and blood of Warcraft is very low, and the shelf life is short. Those adventurers usually sell the flesh and blood of Warcraft to Claire when delivering tasks.

The pieces of monster meat that were collected were divided into two parts by Claire. The best part was supplied to the knight leader as food. The knights needed to replenish a lot of energy every day for training, and the flesh and blood of those monsters could just be replenished. Most of the remaining ones are transported to the market in the East District and sold to the residents in Nafu City at a reduced price. This increases the source of meat, and it also serves as a foundation for the children in Nafu City. If you eat Warcraft meat for many years, your physical fitness will be much better than that of ordinary people, and your potential after becoming a knight will be extraordinary.

The money for purchasing World of Warcraft meat is not that much, Claire can make up for it with a little bit of money flowing out from between Claire's fingers, and this is Nafu City's previous planned public expenditure, so there is no need to save money in this area.

In the backyard of Rona clinic, Claire was lying on the lounge chair next to the pool, moving his hands in mid-air. At the same time, there was a wave of water in the pool that was constantly rolling up, like a sea wave, accompanying Eve in the pool.

Rona was not in the backyard, otherwise he would have gritted his teeth again when he saw this scene. Because there are more adventurers, Rona's workload has increased a lot. She can't spend most of her time playing with Eve like before and stay in the front yard for a long time to treat patients. However, she enjoys it. There are so many people practicing on her every day, and her medical skills are getting better and better.

"Boom" sound! Rona suddenly opened the door and walked in with a very anxious expression.

"Claire is not good!"

"Huh?" Claire sat up from the recliner. Eve also leaned against the pool and looked over in confusion.

Rona quickly walked up to Claire, grabbed his hand and pulled him to the front yard. As he walked, he explained, "Ordinary people injured by monsters have appeared."

"Isn't this normal?" Claire replied. He didn't think anything of it. Because Nafu City was close to the Monster Mountain Range branch, monsters hurting people often happened. It was like birth, old age, illness and death. Everyone was used to it.

"This time is different! There are too many injured people, dozens of them, and some people died before they were sent here."

Hearing Rona's words, Claire's expression became serious. In the past, incidents involving monsters hurting people could only affect three or four people at most, but now it has multiplied so many times. You know there is a problem without even thinking about it!

Then there was no need for Rona to pull her. Claire quickly walked in front of Rona and pulled her to the front yard of the clinic.

When they arrived at the front yard, all they saw were ordinary people wrapped in white cloths and lying on beds. Some of them had big holes in their chests. If it weren't for Rona's superb medical skills, they would be dead.

Rona saw Claire's tightened brows and said, "Don't worry, I came to find you after I stabilized their injuries."

Hearing Rona's words, Claire breathed a sigh of relief, raised his head and glanced at the scene, and soon saw Regan comforting the injured residents, shouting, "Regan, come here! What's going on?"

After Regan heard Claire calling him, after comforting another resident, he ran to Claire, took out the paper he had recorded and said in an orderly manner, "This incident of wounding by a monster is different from the previous ones. It happened in the southern part of the viscounty territory. As Karl Village approached Monster Mountain Range, fifteen residents were dead and fifty-three were injured. Thirty of them were sent to doctor Rona, and the other twenty-three were sent to churches and other clinics. Now their lives are saved."

"According to the information we know, the monster that hurt people was a second-level Tusked Boar. It had been killed by the adventurers who came from behind. Otherwise, it would have caused greater casualties."

"Level 2 monsters?" Claire frowned, "Aren't the ones who hurt people in the past always just some inferior monsters?"

The level of monsters is very strict. Generally speaking, there are only some wild beasts or inferior monsters on the outermost side. These monsters were the ones that hurt people in the past. Even first-level monsters that hurt people are rarely seen. It can be said that the second-level monsters are in the inner layer of the mountains. How could they come within the scope of human activities?

Regan nodded, "That's true. We don't know the reason yet, but don't worry, young master, I have sent people out to investigate."

Claire nodded, "Well, you go to those Healing Potions in my laboratory and use them for these injured people. And Rona, try not to let them leave any sequelae. As for the thirteen dead citizens, send some compensation to their families."

Regan was stunned. In fact, Claire is not responsible for this kind of thing, but he now understands Claire's temperament, and said quickly, "I obey, Master!"

Claire rubbed his temples and said with a headache, "Let Hant and the others patrol the territory with Knight Squad in the past few days. Don't let this happen again."
