章 145: This Won't Do (1)

Ashton initially wanted to travel back to the quest to hunt the Gorillan queen. But there was a problem he couldn't solve either with money or influence. He didn't know the complete details but the requirements for entering the quest related to finding the hidden breeding ground of the monklins had been changed drastically. 

Earlier, Silver ranking adventurers could participate in the quest, but now only gold and above ranking adventurers were allowed to do so. Upon inquiring about it, it was revealed to him that the squad containing 10 Silver rankers was found dead after a search operation was organised to look for them. 

"Their death did not seem to be painless or quick either." The receptionist informed him, "Sorry, but I can't give you any more information about it as you don't have the rank nor do I have the authority."
