It turns out true Adventurers don't rely on fighting monsters, but on gathering.
In an instant, the Adventurers' Guild hall erupted.
Normally, collecting windwheel asters was not an easy task.
Many Adventurers would scour the areas around Mondstadt every day and only find a few scattered plants.
Yet, the scene before them...
It was as if an entire windwheel aster resource point had been moved here!
Even some veteran Adventurers couldn't help but cast surprised glances, approaching to investigate.
"Young man, where did you find so many?"
An Adventurer in light armor couldn't help but ask, his tone filled with unconcealed shock and envy: "You didn't discover a new windwheel aster gathering spot, did you?"
"The quantity is too exaggerated. I just ran a loop around Windrise yesterday and hardly found any!" another Adventurer exclaimed.
"Look, there are also ores and other local specialties…"
"How many places did he run last night? This is too outrageous!"
...Everyone discussed animatedly, their eyes filled with envy and shock.
Lin Mo smiled faintly at their exclamations, saying nothing.
He hadn't expected that with the Biowave Detector, he could find so many windwheel asters within Mondstadt.
Mondstadt was too vast.
So vast that some windwheel aster resources were very well hidden.
Katheryne recovered her senses, her gaze towards Lin Mo now carrying a complex meaning.
She didn't doubt Lin Mo's abilities.
After all, many veteran Adventurers in the Adventurers' Guild had their own unique gathering techniques, but… bringing back such a large quantity of windwheel asters at once was still an extremely rare occurrence!
She took a deep breath, adjusted her mindset, and then began skillfully calculating the price of these resources.
"windwheel asters… excellent quality."
Katheryne picked up one of the windwheel asters and observed it carefully, her fingertips gently caressing the mushroom's surface, nodding slightly: "Sufficient moisture, no signs of weathering, recently picked. The market price can be appropriately increased."
She continued to inspect the Dandelion Seeds and other materials, quickly reaching a conclusion.
"These resources can be exchanged for a total of…"
"One hundred ninety-eight thousand mora."
Katheryne closed the calculation document and said with a smile: "If you are willing to exchange a portion for mission points, there will also be an additional bonus reward."
One hundred ninety-eight thousand mora?!
Hearing this price, the surrounding Adventurers couldn't help but gasp again.
"Nearly two hundred thousand mora… this is higher than the earnings from how many low-level commissions we run!"
"So, a true Adventurer doesn't rely on fighting monsters, but on treasure hunting?"
"Now I completely understand… collecting local specialties is the right path!"
...Many people showed envious expressions.
Some had even started to plan in their minds, intending to take some time to gather windwheel asters and try their luck.
However, they also knew in their hearts.
To find such a large amount of resources in a short time, even for a veteran, it wasn't that easy to accomplish.
"Hmm… mora will do."
Lin Mo pondered for a moment before nodding: "Mission points aren't very useful for me lately, exchanging for mora is more practical."
Katheryne didn't ask further, quickly handed him the mora, and simultaneously registered the material recovery record.
"Transaction complete. Thank you for your contribution, and I wish you a successful adventure."
Katheryne said with a smile, her tone still gentle and polite.
Lin Mo put away the mora and nodded lightly.
The Adventurers' Guild was always so efficient.
Whether it was quest commissions, information exchange, or resource trading, they had an extremely mature operating system.
"Oh right, I'm also planning to commission a sword."
After a moment of thought, Lin Mo spoke, explaining briefly, to which Katheryne nodded: "Please state your requirements."
"First, it's a one-handed sword, not a heavy iron block, but a style that combines strength and flexibility."
Katheryne nodded slightly, signaling him to continue.
"The material for the blade must be at least high-quality Magical Ore, preferably mixed with some materials with strong elemental resonance, such as Amethyst Lumps, Mystic Enhancement Ore, or even some rare elemental ores."
Lin Mo's finger lightly tapped the counter as he continued: "At the same time, the blade must have high durability. I don't want it to crack after a few uses like an ordinary refined sword; it must be strong enough to withstand high-intensity combat."
Hearing this, Katheryne paused, then hesitated: "You mean you hope the blade can carry more elemental energy?"
This was something only a Vision Holder would consider.
Ordinary Adventurers would at most use a good refined longsword.
And Magical Crystal Ore, elemental ores, these were materials for forging elemental weapons.
They were beneficial for Vision Holders, but for ordinary people, they were of no use.
Lin Mo nodded: "Not just to carry, but to be able to withstand it, and not crack in a short period."
"If possible… it would be best if it also had a certain degree of conductivity."
Katheryne carefully recorded everything, a thoughtful expression on her face.
"High durability, capable of adapting to high-intensity combat, able to carry elemental energy, and the sword itself possessing elemental conductivity… your requirements are indeed very high."
Katheryne smiled slightly: "Such a weapon would likely be difficult for an ordinary blacksmith to forge; it would require at least a master-level blacksmith to complete it."
"I have already recorded your needs."
At this point, Katheryne paused, pondered for a moment, then continued: "How about this, I will contact Mondstadt's top blacksmith, Wagner, on behalf of the Adventurers' Guild."
"He is Mondstadt's most renowned blacksmith and is recognized as a forging master by the entire Adventurers' Guild."
"If anyone can forge such a weapon according to your requirements, it would be him."
Lin Mo nodded: "Then I'll leave it to you."
Although he could go to Wagner himself, that would involve queuing and appointments, which was quite troublesome.
It was better to do it under the name of the Adventurers' Guild.
Katheryne, hearing this, smiled: "It's no trouble. After all, one of the Adventurers' Guild's duties is to provide the best service to Adventurers."
"Please pay a deposit of one hundred thousand mora."
"Also, if this weapon can be forged, two hundred thousand mora will probably not be enough."
With that, Katheryne mentioned it out of concern.
Lin Mo nodded: "Price is not an issue."
With the Biowave Detector, he wasn't worried about lacking mora.
It was merely a matter of time.
But this sword wouldn't be forged in a short time.
In that time, he would already be able to find various minerals outside using the Biowave Detector.
"Also, I want to check some missions outside Mondstadt."
Lin Mo continued, and Katheryne immediately nodded, searching for Lin Mo.
"My loyal subjects, seeing your anxiety, I presume those sinful evildoers are once again attempting to encroach upon Mondstadt's peace."
