Bartlett walked out of the "Upright-Ear" inn after having lunch.
Outside, the sky was clear and the clouds that had been there for several days had disappeared. Bartlett first stood in place, relieving the "tension" brought by that eerie story, and then walked towards the Adventurer Association in the distance, planning to take a look at the recent high-value tasks.
There were fewer pedestrians on the road than usual, and Bartlett knew it was because a large gold mine had been discovered in Falcon City, a human country very close to Muya City.
Tens of thousands of adventurers, merchants, craftsmen, and unemployed people flocked to the gold mine. Although the large gold mine belonged to Falcon City, some merchants could band together and negotiate with Falcon City to obtain partial mining rights and take a share in the profit. Adventurers or unemployed people could dig holes everywhere like moles in other unrestricted areas in hopes of discovering some miracles.
