Chapter 250: Seriously, you will lose
Chapter 250 If you take it seriously, you will lose
Brave Bar.
"Peace is so good."
Sitting in a quiet area, I twirled the cup in my hand and sighed at the mingling figures opposite. The enthusiastic and heroic barbarians had brought up the atmosphere of the entire bar. They talked loudly, argued loudly, and talked loudly without scruples.
Laughter, even the usually calm mage and the aloof assassin seemed to be affected by the noisy atmosphere, and their words and deeds couldn't help but open up.
Even in the soundproof area, the heavy vibrations coming from the wooden floor and the heat waves coming one after another really made people's blood boil, and they couldn't help but long to join the unrestrained and noisy team.
Compared to the crowd and hustle and bustle over there, it seemed a bit cold here. The table for six people was only shared by me and one other person, which was simply unimaginable in Rogge Camp.
"Do you agree?"
Turning around, the other person sitting at the same table with me said with a smile. He looked a little timid and hesitant, his thin body shrank cautiously, and his small eyes were like a mouse stuck in a hole by a cat. He was always uneasy.
Gulu was spinning around, wearing a brown linen short coat and a black cloth belt tied to the side that hung down to his knees, which constituted the most classic dress of the poor nowadays.
"Yes, sir, you are absolutely right."
Tok, the middle-aged man who led me when I first came to Lugaoyin, was using a flattering expression at this time, barely opening the corner of his mouth, revealing a mouth of yellowed teeth, and playing with his
He would take a sip from the ale cup from time to time, but judging from his appearance, he probably couldn't taste it.
I shook my head secretly, wondering if that demonstration really scared him. Xiaoxue's momentum was such that even senior career changers didn't dare to compare with it. No wonder Tuoke, as a civilian, still remains...
The shadow remains.
As a local snake in Lugaoyin, Toke is undoubtedly an excellent assistant. Before starting the task assigned by Akara and the others, I started to ask around for useful information. "The troops and horses have not moved, but the food and grass go first." However, there are still
A premise, something that needs to be grasped before food and grass, is intelligence. If you don’t even know where the enemy is, how can you “go first with food and grass”?
First of all, I thought of the Mages Guild. As a large "transnational" organization, they must have certain communication channels throughout the Western Kingdom. However, when I found Talon, the leader of the mages, with high hopes, the result was surprising.
People are extremely disappointed. Under the leadership of the research madman Talen, Lu Gaoyin's mages' guild is filled with a research atmosphere. Some mages are so obsessed that they ignore everything outside the window, as long as it does not endanger major events in the entire Western Kingdom.
, they generally just let it go.
After bastardizing Tarun, I immediately thought of Tok. This wretched middle-aged man who claimed to know everything about Lu Gaoyin. In my opinion, these people who rely on tour guides or selling gossip to survive, at least
You should also have your own circle. In this circle, you can communicate together and give and receive from each other. Only in this way can you stay one step ahead of others and get the latest news.
As I expected, when I found him in the Brave Bar according to the local method provided by Tok, this wretched man looked frightened and distressed. Without me having to elaborate, he honestly admitted that he was in four cities in the Western Kingdom.
, there are a few "good brothers". It's just a "small fight" and cannot completely guarantee the timeliness and accuracy of the news.
For me, this level is enough. Although sometimes the news is wrong or comes too late, which makes me go through several unnecessary trips, but Darkness does not have a mature network and communication like the previous world.
It is inevitable for tools to make mistakes, generally speaking. If I had not relied on the information they provided, I would probably still be wandering around the villages like a headless fly...
"But..." While I was in a daze, Tok spoke with difficulty again. Facing the man in front of him who seemed to be shrouded in black, he could not stop his heart from trembling.
"I heard that the village of Amutai over the Dry City has been attacked by monsters recently, and the villagers suffered heavy casualties." He added to the corners of his chapped lips, and Tok poured the ale foam into his mouth tastelessly, which he had never seen before.
He said that it was because after several months of understanding, he knew that Lord Yandi was not interested in news "about Warcraft".
"Amutai?"
I have some impressions in my mind, but they are very vague. There are tens of thousands of villages in the entire Western Kingdom, and I have passed not only a thousand but also eight hundred. If I could really remember them all, I would have the ambition to challenge Princess Sanwu to a test of memory.
My index finger kept lightly clasping the table, and the dull sound echoed in the air in the corner of the bar, which seemed particularly abrupt. I frowned involuntarily - there couldn't be any remnants of the fallen, after all, they behaved inhumanely and despicably.
Framing attacks by bandits or monsters is their usual behavior.
"Credibility?" When I thought about the possibility of another trip, my mood immediately deteriorated, and I only uttered three words coldly.
"According to my estimation, Amuteai Village is close to the misty forest, and the possibility of being attacked by monsters is indeed very high. Moreover, it is not like before. There are many villagers who have escaped from Amuteai Village. The information comes from them.
I got it from my mouth, so the credibility should be very high.”
Wiping the cold sweat from his forehead, Tok trembled and expressed his thoughts. Naturally, "like before" refers to the tragic incident where the degenerates attacked the village some time ago and left no one alive.
"Let's do this. You guys should pay close attention and give me accurate information within five days." After considering the time, I stood up and said.
"Yes, sir, please don't worry." Tok stood up quickly, and the wooden cup in his hand almost spilled on the table because of his panic.
"If you have nothing else to do, you can go." I took out a heavy sack from my arms and threw it on the table, and the crisp friction sound of gold coins was heard.
Tok thanked him repeatedly, put away the sack and turned around to leave. Compared to the first time he got the reward, he was not even a little bit happy now. Over the past few months, he had vaguely guessed something, but he did not dare to show it at all. Oh God.
Bless yourself - a devout and kind-hearted believer who just wants to live a more stable life, otherwise he would have gone to sea with Captain Masif to make a lot of money. But now, God knows whether that adult will suddenly treat him one day.
Saying cruel words such as "You know too much, don't blame me", Tok felt like he had stepped on a pirate ship. Escape? If he had the courage, he would not refuse Masif's invitation.
He walked out of the Brave Bar with a sad face. Forget it, let's squander the money quickly to avoid "returning the property to its original owner" one day and feeling the heavy weight in his arms. His bitter face finally managed to show a smile. It was okay.
At least I can have some fun before I die.
Watching Tuoke's figure disappear outside the door, my straight body relaxed. Tuoke is quite agile in doing things. He is a talent. If possible, I really want to stay with him. But after thinking about it, I still forget it. His current ability
It was based on his understanding of the Western Kingdom. If he brought it to the seaport of Kurast, he might not be able to use it if he was unfamiliar with the place. It would be better to find some local snakes to help him.
"What a pity." Looking at Tok's leaving figure, I sighed feebly. I don't have any shortcomings, I'm just lazy. It's annoying to have to find an assistant again.
"Brother, do you mean to put him..." The little ghost had a serious face and pretended to whisper. Then he rubbed his white neck with his little hand.
"I said, are you too into the drama..." It's all my fault. I instilled the knowledge of the underworld in her when she was bored. I was a bitch and I deserved it.
Seeing me lying limply on the table, the little ghost couldn't help but smile, blinking with bright big eyes, not knowing what he was thinking...
On the sixth day, that is, the second day after I confirmed from Tok that Amuteai Village was indeed attacked by monsters and not the remnants of the fallen. My sister was very abrupt. She told me as if it was natural that she planned to leave.
.It didn’t leave me half a second of buffering time before and after.
"Brother, you have been wronged these past few days." My sister only asked me to walk to the gate and stroked my hair. After seeing the charred villa behind me, my sister's face was full of apologies.
"It doesn't matter, as long as my sister is happy." I held her hand and smiled. Seeing my sister smiling so happily made everything worth it. If I had to say there was something I wasn't happy about, it was looking at Moissa.
My relationship with my sister was so "good" that I actually felt a faint jealousy in my heart that my sister had been snatched away by someone else.
After leaving a soft kiss on my forehead, my sister, who never likes to be sloppy, turned around and left. She didn't even say hello to the other person. With the druid's keen intuition, a subtle kiss was almost
Ignoring my gaze, I was quietly watching my sister's leaving figure...
"You didn't leave a word. She is such a cruel mother, isn't she?" Before the owner of the sight came back to his senses, I made a big circle and found the person behind the big tree in the courtyard who was peeping like a little thief.
A small figure outside the gate.
"What are you talking about, Master, do you need to check your brain?" The figure turned back like a frightened squirrel, but its beautiful face remained stern, and its expression and eyes refused to reveal anything.
emotion.
Damn it, I originally thought I could take advantage of her trance to get out her inner thoughts, but I didn't expect that this little guy always showed special vigilance when he shouldn't be alert, which made people feel an indescribable feeling of frustration.
After confirming that her sister had left, Princess Sanwu seemed to be throwing a grand celebration banquet. However, she took out a tea set, brought boiling water from who knows where, and sat under the shade of a tree, leisurely.
I made tea, and there was only one cup. I simply ignored the existence of my master. Have you ever seen such an arrogant maid? Not at all. Fortunately, a few days ago, I risked being scolded by my sister to take care of her.
My poor blanket, barbecue, light snow, and honey - well, this doesn't seem to count...
"Don't you think you should serve your master first... ugh~~!?"
I stepped forward and glared at Moissa, who was leaning under the tree with a smile on her face, holding the teacup in both hands and taking a sip. Before I finished speaking, in her dull eyes, a pretty red face appeared.
Approaching without warning, the next moment, the lips were blocked by a soft and fragrant object, and traces of warm and sweet tea kept seeping into the mouth.
When he came back to his senses, the gentle touch on his lips had disappeared, Princess Sanwu in front of him had also disappeared, and the sound of hurried footsteps and words became increasingly distant behind her.
"Are you satisfied with this...service...? Let me declare in advance that it is only...only this time..."
"Click-" the sound of the door being slammed shut. "Crack--" seemed to be the sound of being locked. When I turned around, even the iron-barred window on the second floor had been tightly closed.
"Is this a dream?" I pinched myself hard, and there was still a hint of warmth and sweetness between my lips and teeth. The voice that I never expected to hear from her mouth, with a hint of shyness, seemed to still be there at this moment.
echoed in the courtyard.
As if to confirm, his hand involuntarily reached out to the teacup from which he had only taken a small sip. Before he could touch it, another small hand snatched it away.
The pretty face shrouded in dark clouds suddenly approached and said word by word: "Are you satisfied with your service just now? I dearly love the land owner!!?"
"Yeah!!" He nodded honestly, and then he realized, my God, I, a master of platitudes (?), have actually been tricked!!
"Very good, very good. Since you like it, let's enjoy it." The pretty face covered with dark clouds suddenly smiled, as bright as the sun breaking through the clouds, but in my eyes, there is no doubt that this
It's the Antarctic sun.
"Gulu gulu~~" The noble, great, elegant, beautiful, pure and noble--Her Royal Highness the Saint, who was in a state of rage, poured the hot tea into her mouth with great courage, and jumped forward with her cheeks bulging high.
"Wow~~, can your ears drink tea?!"
"GuluGulu~~" Ammunition is being replenished.
"Damn it, your eyes are not good either, you idiot!!"
Someone's screams of extreme joy and sorrow echoed in the courtyard.
"What?" In the Mages Guild, I looked at Talen with wide eyes.
"Elder Fan, there is nothing we can do here. Long-distance transmission requires both parties to be ready at the same time before it can be used!" Talen sighed helplessly, shrugging his shoulders.
"How long will it take to be ready?"
"Just the day after tomorrow."
I walked out of the Mages Guild feebly and looked up at the fiery red sun. Unexpectedly, it was such a mistake. The remote teleportation still needs time to prepare. What should I do now?
"Go back." Could this little ghost be able to read minds? Don't just peek into other people's thoughts.
"No." I flatly rejected her suggestion.
"Wow!!……"
"I've obviously said goodbye to Old Man Ryan and Moissa, but if I go back now, wouldn't it be..." I tilted my head, trying to find a suitable metaphor.
"It's like having a fight with your parents and vowing to run away from home, only to find out that you have no ability to survive on your own, but you can't help but admit defeat, and your parents at least have to beg you to go back before you go back?" the little ghost said.
Got the correct answer.
"You really like to find trouble."
"Shut up, you have no right to speak against me." After being exposed, I suddenly became angry and embarrassed.
"Let's just stay in the hotel for the next two days. By the way, let's buy some gifts and go back." I found a good excuse in an instant, and started to wander on the street proudly.
"Both Sarah and Vilas seem to like snacks..." Thinking of the scene on God's birthday, all the food stalls on the street were wiped out.
"This dress is not bad either..." He gestured at the heights of Sarah, Vilas and Sari, just in case, Linya and Ihana (female druid, Dhruv's wife) were also missing.
, As for Qiaxi, I'm sorry, but I really can't find clothes that fit her "size", so all the clothes of all sizes in the tailor shop were sold out.
"There are also Lal, Doug, Geff, Dhruv, and Marton. They seem to like weird things..."
They recalled how happy they were when the last time he gave them some weird gadgets that Warrif forcibly sold (including a 1:2 scale model of a crippled monster, the fallen magician's ghost-headed staff, Andariel's simulated tentacles, etc.)
(?), so some curious items, such as starfish with strange shapes, creative bread, and jam with unique taste, were also collected by me one by one. I imagined them crying when they accepted the gifts.
I felt a burst of satisfaction at the full scene. No need for unnecessary words. This is the precious friendship between men.
Little Ghost: “…!!”
"Why are you staring? This is how men shop!"
At the same time, the four elders in Rogge's camp shuddered in unison, muttering to themselves: What's going on? There is always a feeling of being completely ignored...
When I felt about the same, I focused on a small stall.
There are dozens of stones of different shapes on the stall. Since Lugao is located in the Gobi Desert to the west and the beach to the east, you can pick up some beautiful stones such as pebbles in these places. I thought about what happened at Rogge Camp.
Not seeing this strange thing, I walked up.
The stall owner was a Lugaoyin man with a neat mustache. He smiled at me and then stretched out his hand to indicate: Take a look and pick slowly. I was quite interested in squatting down and looking at these stones of different shapes and colors.
Looking between.
"Boss, I want this." A strong and deep man's voice sounded from beside me, and a strong arm suddenly blocked my sight as if appearing from the sky.
What the hell!! What is going on?!
My whole body was stiff, and I turned my head in disbelief. Apart from the drunkard Kasha and Sister Sharna, I had never been approached by anyone else without knowing it. When did this man come next to me, and who was he?
When he crouched down? He made such a big move at a short distance, but he still didn't notice it until that arm stretched out in front of him. If it was an enemy...
Like me, the whole body was covered tightly by a cloak. A tall black figure came into view. He was two heads taller than me and at least two meters tall. Especially his steady and strong body, it was even more impressive.
There is an unshakable feeling that from other people's perspective, the two of us squatting together and wearing similar clothes would be like a father taking care of a child. Of course, this is just a comparison purely in terms of size and momentum.
This was a paladin. I immediately judged that it was not a druid, not a barbarian, and certainly not a mage assassin. The only person who could exude such a mountain-like aura was a paladin.
There are no words to describe the shock in my heart. It was as if I turned my head inadvertently and suddenly found that the field of vision that should have been empty suddenly rose up into the sky. I can only look up, admire and reflect on myself.
to one's own insignificance.
"Boss, I want this." He stood up, the momentum of the mountains rising even stronger, even the fiery red sun in the sky was blocked by it.
"Guest, one silver coin and two, you can choose one more." The stall owner said respectfully.
"This is enough."
The paladin with a cold tone held an inconspicuous black stone in his hand, took out a gold coin and threw it down. He turned and left without saying anything, as if I was nothing, and he never even glanced here from beginning to end.
Staring blankly at the leaving figure of the Paladin, I finally realized what Akara said to me - "With your current strength, even if you don't know their names and appearances, when they stand beside you
When you are in front of you, you can naturally feel it, and your intuition will tell you that the enemy in front of you is unmatchable!"
That paladin gave me this feeling of insignificance and powerlessness. I'm sure he is one of the three giants of the Fallen Alliance that Akara and I talked about. Omg, luckily he didn't know that I was the one who killed four of them in a row.
There are job transferees and more than a dozen mercenaries, otherwise with the momentum and strength that is no less than Kasha, I probably wouldn't even have a chance to draw my sword.
Sun Die, a dignified adventurer of level 60 or above, instead of learning how to build a snowman in Harrogas, comes here to scare people, he is just like a gangster boss hanging around in a kindergarten and talking nonsense.
After confirming that the Paladin had gone away, I made an international gesture towards the direction he left with a cold sweat, secretly slandering me. After this surprise, I couldn't bring up the desire to shop anymore, huh huh.
Chapter completed!
