I really only stop

"It's natural. The guild is a place to provide services for adventurers. If someone wants to break the rules, it's not our turn to do it. Other adventurers will help stop it."

After briefly introducing the general situation of the guild for beginners, Miss OL once again took out an instrument similar to a crystal ball:

"If you want to register, just put your hand on it."

In just a few minutes, I helped three people log in to their identities in a row. Could it be that the peak of new adventurer registrations has come again?

When Ms. OL was instructing the clergy girl to register information, Lu Xi leaned over and asked:

"Is it okay? Can I go to pick up the task?"

Looking at the progress bar of the crystal ball instrument, Ms. OL shook her head helplessly: "It will take some time to prepare, but if Mr. Lu Xi is really that anxious, you can go to the bulletin board to pre-select the task first. Wait for the cleric After the lady has logged in, the temporary team will be established immediately."

Lucy nodded reassuringly.After a while, he looked apologetically at the clergy girl who had been obediently listening to his arrangement:

"I'm really sorry that I suddenly asked you to register as an adventurer... But it's okay, I submitted the application for a temporary team, as long as you help me get through this difficult time, I won't impose any restrictions on you!"

"I'm fine~ The purpose of this trip is also to learn more about the world, and becoming an adventurer is also a pretty good way."

The cleric girl shook her head lightly, showing a gentle smile full of healing:

"How? Can this help you?"

... She really deserves to be a nanny, she has both a good figure and a smile.

Feeling that some aspects of his heart were healed, Lu Xi was taken aback for a moment, and then returned a smile:

"Ah, of course!"

------

Adventurer's Guild, in front of the mission bulletin board.

When Lu Xi carefully selected those tasks suitable for the time-stop ability, a black figure quietly touched over, and carefully tugged at the corner of his clothes.

"... Nana?"

Looking suspiciously at the girl with a worried face, Lu Xi didn't stop taking the task: "What's wrong?"

"No... nothing..."

Nana poked her finger with some unease, and glanced at the clergy girl who was discussing something with Ms. OL: "It's the clergy lady that Mr. Lu Xi brought back suddenly... to join us team?"

"Well, yes. The OL said that only in this way will he give us the task."

While tearing off a collection task, Lu Xi casually said:

"You too, Nana, just call me Lu Xi, there's no need to add a mister—ah."

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Lu Xi found out what was wrong with him.

Although in my perception, I have known Nana for more than a month.But from the perspective of a girl, I only spent half a day with her.

Most of the time, I just complained and chatted to her in the time-stop state.In Nana's view, she was first rescued by herself who appeared suddenly, then returned to Novice City suddenly, and then joined her team inexplicably—it happened within half a day.Not only for a girl who was not very extroverted, even for Lu Xi himself, it would take some buffer time for these sudden occurrences.

After clarifying the context of the matter in a flash, Lu Xi looked at Nana with some embarrassment: "...I don't think it's so unfamiliar to call you by name alone, but it depends on you, Nana."

"No no no! I, I, I'm so happy!!!"

Nana's voice rose for a moment because of anxiety, but it quickly fell down again:

"Only people who are close to each other will call me by my first name. Lu Xixian... Lu Xi is the first person who is willing to call me that. I am really happy!"

"...Really, that's good."

Lu Xi tidied up a dozen task papers on the table: "I see that Nana has been looking over there, do you think there is something wrong with that cleric lady?"

"Wow!"

This question obviously pierced the girl's heart, and her fair and pretty face turned red all of a sudden.

"She, she..."

Covering the top of her head with the gray cloth that she had been wearing behind her all the time, Nana turned into the suspicious grey-robed monster she had seen for the first time.After putting on the gray cloth, the girl seemed to have regained a little courage to speak out:

"She, she... is too dazzling, I, I, I can't muster up the courage to strike up a conversation!"

"……what?"

Lu Xi said that he could not understand.

Is Nana saying that the priests are shining?You are not an evil spirit that is naturally restrained by them, why are you afraid of shiny things?

An unknown husband controlled an evil spirit surnamed Xue, but he dared to drill into the arms of a saint who had transformed thousands of spirit bodies.

"...No, it's not because of that..."

The thoughtful Nana obviously saw what Lu Xi was thinking, and there was a slight trill in her anxious tone:

"Because of other... other aspects—"

"Mr. Lu Xi, the adventurer cards for Miss Priest have been printed and distributed, and your temporary team will be formed immediately!"

After shouting in the direction of Lu Xi, Miss OL picked up the generated adventurer card from the device and handed it to the priest girl who had been waiting quietly.At the same time, she did not forget to take a look at the name written on the adventurer's card in order to welcome the new adventurer according to the procedure:

"Then, your status as an adventurer has been officially established. Please work hard in the days to come, and work hard for a higher level of adventurer, you—ah!!!"

As if being hit by a thunderbolt, Ms. OL opened her eyes incredulously, looked at the clergy girl with a gentle smile in front of her:

"You, you are the one—"

Before the words fell, the flow of time had already been cut off.

Chapter 13 Skill: Loot Recovery

finally took over...

Seeing that the noisy guild hall suddenly became extremely silent, Lu Xi heaved a sigh of relief.

It's been a busy hour.It was registration, bargaining with the OL lady, and a stroll outside to catch a clergyman as a temporary teammate.

Speaking of which...

Looking curiously at the astonished expression on Ms. OL's face and the cute "shh~" movement of the cleric girl, a question mark popped up in Lucy's head.

Generally speaking, even a clergyman whose mission is to help those in need would not agree to someone who suddenly appeared on the street asking for help, right?

...Maybe this girl has a lot of nerves.

Shaking her head and putting aside the small theater over there, Lu Xi walked up to Nana, sighed lightly, and took off the gray cloth from her head, which revealed the girl holding back her tears.

—— Nana has a big problem too.

Although she has not been in contact for a long time, her timidity and poor communication with others have already been fully exposed.

Whether it's the sincerity when I called the doll a 'friend', or the joy when I said that I can call her by name, it all vaguely proves that there may be no one around her at ordinary times.

——Just like me in time-stop.

Before putting Nana's gray cloth hat back in place, Lu Xi hesitated for a moment and reached out to rub her hair.

...It is the same as the owner's feeling, quite soft and warm.

Right now, there is still the mountain of countdown over my head, and my life in another world will not really start until there is enough time for activities.

[Countdown: 1 hours 50 minutes 19 seconds]

Lucy pulled himself together and grabbed a dozen task papers on the table:

"Now, it's time to score points!"

-

[Task: Crusade against red wolves, collect fur (10 horses)]

Holding a stack of quests that he had carefully selected, Lu Xi compared the monster illustrated book in his hand—from the guild, of course—to the corresponding area of ​​the Monster Forest.

Unlike the middle level that met Nana, as a group of monsters that often attack adventurers, the red wolves mostly inhabit the shallow forests near the village, causing great losses to the villagers.But on the other hand, its fur is a very good warm fabric, very popular among tailors.Therefore, the task Lu Xi was holding was a crusade + collection task issued by the disaster-stricken village and the tailor shop in the city.

"...However, why do I only meet red wolves acting alone? Is this the third one?"

Throwing the huge package on his back to the ground, looking at the red wolf eating a rabbit in front of him, Lu Xi rubbed his temple with a headache:

"Could it be that they are all 'Nai Nai syndrome' patients who can't integrate into the group? Huh! Such an imagining is so pitiful that I can't do it quickly!"

...That's the way it is said, but the total number of animals that need to be hunted down is only ten after all, so it won't take long to cut them down one by one.Therefore, Lu Xi stopped being hypocritical, and skillfully took out a short dagger from the bag.

[Silver Moon Dagger: An extremely well-made dagger that uses a lot of precious materials. Even an adventurer at the level of the vice guildmaster would have to save a lot of money to buy it.The signature crescent-shaped hole in the hilt of the dagger appears to have been pressed out of half a wine bottle by a drunken maker. 】

——Lu Xi ran up to the second floor to 'borrow' it from the vice guildmaster after the time stop.Thanks to the sharpness of this piece of equipment itself, Lu Xi, who is still an ordinary person in essence, saved a lot of energy when attacking the red wolf who stopped temporarily.

Don't think that hunting monsters is a task that ordinary people can complete!Do you want me, who has never learned any combat skills, to be good at stroking the fur of the red wolf?

Skillfully wielding the delicate dagger that was much heavier than it looked, Lu Xi aimed at the red wolf's neck, and stabbed down heavily——

"Pfft-"

As the sharp blade was pulled out, a large amount of red wolf's blood scattered in the air, but when it was about to hit the ground, it froze in mid-air because of the time stop, forming a strange and somewhat bewitching demonic picture.

"...It's really troublesome to clean it every time..."

With some distaste, he wiped the silver moon dagger stained with wolf blood with the leaf, Lu Xi shook his head:

"It would be nice if I borrowed the handsome dragon-toothed epee from the uncle of the undeserved guild. Anyway, it looks rusty, and you can't see it without rubbing it."

A dragon-toothed epee almost as tall as a person is placed high behind the desk of the prudish president. The incompleteness and sporadic bloodstains on it will not make people look down, but will add more value to this piece of equipment and its owner. There was a layer of chilling atmosphere.

Of course, in line with the feudal and backward thought of 'the bigger the official, the better the equipment', Lu Xi really went for this epee at the beginning.But he really overestimated his strength value which was still at the normal level.After a lot of trying, he could only settle for the next best thing, and took away the [Silver Moon Dagger] from the waist of the stern vice president.

However, for this junior monster, the excellent performance of the Silver Moon Dagger is obviously more than enough.

"Next..."

Inserting the dagger into the ground, Lu Xi opened his hands towards the separated red wolf:

"【Recover Loot】!"

A flowing, mercury-like light appeared out of nowhere, and gradually devoured the red wolf's body. After wriggling a few times, it 'vomited' out a mutilated skeleton, a large pool of blood, and a pool of fleshy matter like garbage. on the clearing.

This is the first time the system has done what the system is supposed to do since time travel, the task reward skills awarded to Lu Xi.The effect is also quite simple. It is a convenient skill that can help the user skip the troublesome process of touching the corpse after defeating the enemy, directly collect the useful loot, and discard the useless parts immediately.

"...I wanted to complain about it before, isn't the effect of this thing too strong?"

Looking at the puddle of fleshy substance with some nausea, Lu Xi immediately looked away:

"Obviously all I need is the fur, but it also collected the skull for me. I'm tired of carrying such a big bone, okay?"

In addition to the warm function of the fur of the red wolf, the skull also has excellent armor material properties. [Recovery of Loot] Dutifully separated these two things, and casually spit out the remaining 'garbage' on the ground.

I have to say, it's disgusting.

"Spit out trash, fine fifty, wx or zfb?"

Leaning leisurely on the rock behind him, Lu Xi put his hands behind his head, just looking at the blue sky where the clouds didn't even move a bit.

Time has no meaning, at least not in a world where time stops.

In order to pass this boring time, Lu Xi would often play tricks of complaining about himself like this between missions and missions.

"...It was only when I came back to my senses that I realized that the crusade against the red wolf is already the last task."

Facing the sun, placing a stack of task papers on the ground one by one, Lu Xi let out a sigh of satisfaction:

"Now I should be able to change to a lot of activity time. I have been busy. After handing in the task, let's take a good stroll in the city that is normally active."

There are still many differences between the different world and the earth, such as trees that can glow at night, such as flowers that can pour out honey directly, and such a rock that looks like a foot that I lean on. Lucy's desire to explore.

……

……

and many more.

Lu Xi suddenly felt that something was wrong——

……foot?
