Skill Extraction: Exploring Dungeons-Chapter 542 - 488: Guidance
"I’m fine, don’t worry."
Kane said as he exhaled on the seat, rubbed his head, and stood up.
Just a moment ago, the premonition of blessing and calamity appeared again, and this time it came extremely strong and suddenly, causing Kane’s head to feel a bit dizzy, but he quickly adjusted.
However, this was the first time Kane experienced such a strong premonition, which logically shouldn’t be this intense.
Premonition is like foresight, a kind of perception of what might happen in the future.
This thing should naturally inform Kane that something good or bad might happen in the future, and the only value it provides is to help Kane remain calm when encountering events.
Because the premonition provides foresight, it can prepare Kane psychologically.
But experiencing something that directly impacts the brain is a first; it’s too strange. It doesn’t conform to the setup of a premonition.
Looking at his teammates, Kane explained, "The premonition of blessing and calamity came again, and this time it was very intense, catching me off guard."
"Why is it happening again? Didn’t it just appear this morning?" Kreya said, frowning.
Although this feeling of premonition has been there during this period, it hasn’t been as frequent and intense as today.
It just appeared once in the morning, and now a stronger one in the afternoon.
Although the premonition is about blessing and calamity being intertwined, it inevitably makes people pay attention and be concerned.
At this moment.
Adoma’s figure appeared in the guild hall.
"Well, I’ve resigned, and now I’m the front desk receptionist of the Lantern Guild!"
Looking at Adoma’s appearance, Kane smiled and then said, "Welcome to your new position then."
Then Kane said, "Now let’s go out first. Adoma, you go home first, and then enter the guild hall from there. We’ll also find a hotel to rest."
"No problem."
Then everyone appeared in the Explorer’s House.
Adoma quietly gestured for everyone to follow quickly, and they left through the back door.
Adoma’s resignation news should have already spread throughout the Explorer’s House in such a short time.
If they exited through the main door, they would certainly be surrounded by people asking all sorts of questions, which would be too troublesome.
After sending Adoma to his home, Kane and the others arrived at a well-known hotel where they used to stay.
Now, when looking for a hotel, it’s no longer as troublesome as before; they directly asked for a team room.
It had five rooms and a hall, whether it was suitable or not was completely irrelevant.
They just needed a living room, the rest they could directly enter the guild hall to rest in their personal spaces.
After all, they had decorated their personal spaces to their satisfaction, and not resting there wouldn’t be worthwhile.
When Kane and the others found their room, they hung a Do Not Disturb sign on the door and then entered the guild hall from the living room.
When Kane and the others entered the guild hall, Burton and Adoma were already there.
The original bar was extended, creating a partition between front and back areas.
The kitchen and restroom were behind the bar.
The bar was integrated with the reception, only the bar side had alcohol and various beverages, while the other side was Adoma’s area.
Burton and Adoma were sorting out their respective areas, as it was now their working area.
Kane and the others walked over.
"Burton, this place isn’t bad, right?"
Hearing Kane’s words, Burton, who was tidying up the bar, laughed heartily and said, "Of course, you know, ever since the dungeon disappeared, my tavern has been almost empty, living leisurely every day, almost rusting away."
"That’s good. The guild’s drinks and alcohol can be withdrawn from the gold storage vault. If this place doesn’t sell them, you can order them, and guild members can purchase them elsewhere while traveling, as the warehouse allows you to take what you need anywhere and anytime, isn’t it convenient?"
Hearing Kane’s words, Burton then patted his head: "Right, the warehouse has this function, indeed the guild is awesome."
After all, there are many specialty liquors and ingredients not easily available in cities like Sokayamas near the border; even if transported, they would be extremely expensive.
Now they can fully utilize the warehouse’s features, allowing guild explorers to purchase them.
After all, explorers wander all over the world, and those who join the Lantern Guild aren’t likely to be people who stay in one place enjoying pleasures without moving around.
Then Kane walked over to Adoma.
He took out a small notebook from the space equipment and handed it to Adoma: "Adoma, this records some guild information and details, along with detailed usage instructions for various functions."
After Adoma received it, Kane continued, "Some information is confidential, and I’ve marked it; you just need to know it yourself."
Hearing Kane’s words, Adoma nodded: "Don’t worry, I’m tight-lipped."
Kane trusted this, considering Adoma’s previous work at the Explorer’s House.
Later, Kane also granted Adoma some permissions to assist her better in her job.
After confirming there was no issue, Kane spoke to both of them together.
"I’ve given you permissions to make partial modifications to the hall, and replace some furniture. You can do this via the guild seal under the counter for the arrangement and use of furniture."
"Later, this place will be left to you. During breaks, you can let the ghost maid at the back take over."
After explaining the precautions, Kane took Kreya and the others to the meeting room next to the guild hall.
The area next to the guild hall had been partitioned by Kane and the others.
It divided the space and used soundproof materials completely, creating two small and one large meeting areas.
Members can apply freely.
Kane sat down and said, "Where do you guys suggest we explore the next dungeon?"
However, Kreya Longbei and the others hadn’t thought about it recently, and even Kane himself hadn’t given it much thought.
They couldn’t help it; ever since they cleared the battlefield, the guild issues and the Spirit of Freedom in the World Ring consumed most of their energy.
These matters occupied most of their time and effort recently.
Leaving them no time to consider which dungeon to venture into next.
Ordinary Silver Dungeons didn’t hold much value for them, serving only to increase their energy progress and hasten their entry into gold.
But that wouldn’t be meaningful.
The way Kane and his team choose dungeons is generally by considering if there’s something special about the dungeon.
Whether it’s stronger or more distinctive.
Such dungeons are usually famous and easy to find, but difficult to choose from.
"Hmm? Where did Lilu go?"
Kane suddenly noticed Lilu was missing.
Kreya said, "She just mentioned someone in the Fairy Tale World was calling her."
Upon hearing Kreya’s words, Kane nodded.
"Alright, let’s each do our search, and then we’ll vote together."
No choice, as Kane currently had no target nor heard any interesting dungeon information.
After speaking, they each took out some magazines from their Space Equipment and began flipping through them.
These were published this week or month, the latest editions, specifically for explorers.
Dungeons that are interesting or newly emerged are usually mentioned within.
For example, here is a passage mentioning a new dungeon filled with a vast number of monsters that dropped mostly Magic Materials.
Unfortunately, being a Copper dungeon means it has little to do with Kane and his group.
Thus, the small meeting room fell into a quietly reading ambiance.
A major joy for explorers is examining information about new dungeons.
Even if they don’t immediately explore, looking is always fun.
It’s like not traveling but always checking out tourist attractions.
Not buying anything but continually browsing through various shops.
At this time, Kreya said, "Look, this dungeon seems quite good."
Hearing Kreya’s words, Kane prepared to lean over to check.
"Cough, cough, cough!"
Kane coughed briefly, fortunately already prepared, as the feeling of mixed fortunes struck again. This time, Kane didn’t get dizzy from the impact.
Seeing Kane’s condition, everyone cast concerned gazes his way.
Especially Kreya, frowning deeply, "Why does this sensation keep happening today, it’s too frequent."
"I feel it, I finally sense the source of this premonition."
Kane’s voice was slightly excited, finally caught it.
The source was nowhere else but on Kane himself.
Speaking, Kane directly opened his Space Equipment, particularly the section for storing valuables.
He fumbled and took out a worn ancient gold coin mounted on a necklace.
At that moment, the ancient coin emitted a faint glow, flashing as if reminding Kane.
"Isn’t this from that time..." Longbei said.
Kane held up the ancient coin, nodded, and said, "That’s right, it’s the one the angel gave me. This very coin has given me that sense of mixed fortunes all along."
Holding the coin, Kane reassessed it.
[Golden Bridge Ancient Coin]
[Souvenir]
[Color: Silver]
[Attributes: Extremely Sturdy]
[Description: A souvenir from a certain dungeon, with some power lingering on it, accept its guidance.]
(Secret Intelligence: Use Eagle Eye to observe the ancient coin and follow its guidance. The time has come.)
"It seems to be pointing to a place," Meizike said, his eyes now showcasing eagle-like pupils.
The same was true for Kane’s eyes.
The two with Eagle Eyes could see the guidance shown by the coin.
At this time, a rainbow-colored Teleportation Gate appeared beside them.
Lilu burst out instantly, accompanied by two winged eggs.
"Kane! Kane!"
