Chapter 187: Chris's Expectations
"This time, you must listen to me. Bay Territory is absolutely the perfect place for us to stay long-term."
"It's not only safer here, but it's also very profitable!"
Chris, animated and excited, was vividly describing the stories that happened in Bay Territory and the Dark Forest.
The young faces around him couldn't help but show a sense of expectation.
Especially when they saw the enchanted leather armor Chris was wearing, they agreed even more with what he was saying.
One young woman tentatively asked:
"How many trolls did our Alice team capture last month?"
Several adventurers perked up their ears, eager to hear more news from Chris.
After all, Bay Territory had appeared too recently.
So recently that many adventurers from Bloodmoon City had just completed an underground ruin expedition and adventure when Bay Territory suddenly emerged.
Although there were many rumors about Bay Territory circulating in Bloodmoon City, many of them were simply shocking.
"Catching a troll earns 50 gold coins? Impossible!"
"Catching murlocs makes money? How could that territory not go bankrupt?"
"Selling enchanted gear and magic potions? That has to be fake!"
Unless they saw it or experienced it firsthand, adventurers absolutely refused to believe it.
After all, the adventurer world had plenty of "empty promises."
There was once a rumor in Farsico about the discovery of an extremely precious, gigantic mithril vein, which attracted nearly 10,000 adventurers to gather.
And the result?
It turned out to be just a silver mine!
Many adventurers ended up working as miners for two or three months just to earn their travel expenses back!
It became a huge joke in the adventurer community!
However, with more and more adventurers sharing their experiences.
And many adventurers secretly recruiting members and forming adventuring teams.
More people began to believe that Bay Territory, beyond the Misty Swamp, was indeed a profitable place for adventurers.
Although for many high-level adventurers, the various rumors about Bay Territory weren't attractive.
But for the more numerous low- and mid-level adventurers, a monthly income of 10 to 20 gold coins.
Was already very tempting.
Hearing the question, Chris smiled faintly, not lowering his voice, and confidently replied:
"Last month, our Alice team had a great harvest. We were one of the top adventuring teams in Bay Territory for capturing trolls, capturing over 100 trolls in total!"
Seeing the shocked expressions on the young people's faces, Chris remembered the reward promised by the leader Alice and chuckled to himself:
"We captured 150 trolls in total, so it's definitely more than 100!"
A hundred trolls?
That's 5,000 gold coins!
These words immediately caught the attention of the surrounding adventurers.
