Chapter 707: Visiting the Guild for the First Time

“Welcome!” The dwarf standing at the door greeted Devitt and Claremont.

The two of them nodded and ignored him. They immediately walked towards the Guild Hall.

In front of the information desk in the Guild Hall, there was a huge stone pillar that supported the center of gravity of the entire house. The surface of the stone pillar was a map of the entire island. Moreover, it marked the direction of the river in every detail.

“Amazing.” Claremont used his hand to touch a certain spot on the map and exclaimed in admiration.

“It would be more convenient if there was a sample of the picture, right?” Devitt commented.

“There is.”

A dwarf dressed in uniform walked up to them and said, “Our Guild’s special carpet map is available at the counter at the entrance. It only requires one silver coin.”

“Everything here is priced in silver coins,” Claremont said in his heart.

“Thank you. But compared to this, there’s something else that I would like to ask you. Where is the front desk for selling information?” Devitt asked the dwarf with a smile.

“Our Union provides customers with direct face-to-face communication with hunters. What kind of information do you want to ask?” The dwarf attendant prompted.

“What kind? This…”

It was the first time Devitt came to such a trading place, so he was not very sensitive to categorizing. After thinking for a while, he cautiously said, “We are newcomers who have just arrived on the island. We mainly want to ask about the history of the races on the island.”

“Oh, I understand.”

The dwarf attendant probably understood what Devitt wanted to say, and replied, “Please go to the reception desk over there to register. Specifically, you have to queue for the No. 6 Hunter, and then pay the deposit.”

“Okay, thank you.”

Perhaps it was because he saw that Devitt wanted to tip the attendant again, Claremont thanked him and dragged Devitt away.

“Captain Devitt, it’s better not to reveal your wealth,” Claremont suggested as he walked on the road.

“Yes, your reminder is right,” Devitt replied after he reacted.

The dwarfs loved money. This was what they had heard from Raphael. Devitt’s idea was, if he could exchange money for the cooperation of others, it would not be a bad thing for an independent scout.

However, in a place like a guild’s trading center, it would be easy to get into unnecessary trouble if he randomly spent money.

Claremont walked to the window of the registration counter and successfully queued up.

The service of the guild could be considered thorough. After Claremont received the room key that he had made an appointment with. Immediately, an attendant came over and led the way for the two of them.

Devitt and Claremont followed the attendant to the second floor.

The stairs leading to the second floor were considered for the differences between different races. The size of the adjacent stairs would have a huge difference.

When they reached the room number marked on the key, Devitt and Claremont stopped in their tracks.

“Can we go in first?” Devitt asked the waiter politely.

“Of course,” the dwarf attendant said with a smile.

Then, he took the key from Claremont and opened the door.

The key was inserted into the lock of the door and the attendant left.

Devitt and Claremont walked into the room. There was only a square table and three soft leather chairs in the room.

Devitt and Claremont sat down at one side of the square table, waiting for the arrival of the news hunter.

“Dong dong!”

Footsteps came from behind, and the two looked back.

A dwarf dressed in black leather boots and cowboy attire walked in from the door of the room. An attendant followed behind him, carrying a tray filled with three cups of warm water with lemon slices.

After the attendant placed the coasters, he placed the drinks in front of the three of them. He closed the door with the empty tray and respectfully left.

“Hello,” the dwarf hunter spoke first.

“My name is Cofito. Can you tell me what you would like to know?”

“Hello, my name is Claremont. This is my leader, Devitt,” Claremont introduced.

“Actually, it doesn’t matter if you don’t tell me your name. The information about the guests will be forgotten by the hunters of our profession when we walk out of this room,” Cofito said, “of course, the content of your inquiry will also be kept secret.”

“I see.” Claremont nodded.

Hearing this, Devitt didn’t waste any more time and went straight to the point. “We want to know some information about the snake lady, the Dragon Clan, and the trolls from you.”

“What kind of information?”

Speaking of serious matters, Cofito’s eyes became sharp.

“For example, their strengths and weaknesses, the scope of their territory, and so on. We need to go to a certain place, and on the way, we must pass by their territory, and we don’t want to cause too much trouble…” Claremont explained.

“I see.” Cofito wrote down the notes on the manuscript paper he brought over and replied.

“We would like to know what kind of information we can get from you,” Devitt said.

“The information you want, I have it all here. And it’s sorted out one by one,” Cofito introduced and his eyes were filled with confidence.

“Well, a book of information costs 20 silver coins, since the information you want are three different races, it will be a total of 30. Can you see if this price is affordable?”

“As long as it’s worth it,” Devitt replied.

“Alright.” Cofito smiled and nodded.

“Then I’ll have to trouble you to register your address to the front desk. After my assistant finds the information, he will deliver it to you personally.”

After hearing Cofito’s words, Devitt pondered and said, “But we’re leaving the Dwarf Town tomorrow. I don’t know if you could send it on time.”

“Don’t worry. It will be delivered on time tomorrow morning,” Cofito promised readily.

“Happy cooperation.”

There were too many people wandering in the hall. Devitt and Claremont worked hard for a while before they finally managed to register the address of the restaurant at the front desk. They were able to get out of the dense crowd and return to the street covered by the moonlight.

“I didn’t expect the lemonade to cost money. I thought it was free,” Claremont grumbled as he counted the deposit.

“The dwarves are really trying their best to make money,” Devitt said.

“I didn’t expect there to be a guild that sells information in this world.”

“I don’t really hope that there will be such a guild in the territory of Caradia,” Claremont thought for a while and replied. “It’s too scary to have my privacy invaded.”

“This island has really allowed me to see many things that I haven’t seen in the military camp. Other than the days on the ship, time seems to fly by.”

Devitt seemed to be in a good mood tonight.
