Three days have passed since the arena battle, three peaceful and leisurely days. After that, the final list of adventurers participating in the operation has been released, but there are still a lot of trivial matters. This operation seems to be very popular with everyone. There are more than 400 adventurer teams on the list, with a total of more than 2,000 adventurers including mercenaries.
Each Dark Wanderer is 7 elite-level flesh-and-blood beasts. With the strength of the Kurast adventurers, it should not be a problem for a team of ordinary adventurers composed of career changers to deal with an elite-level flesh-and-blood beast. According to my According to calculations, five adventurer teams are enough to deal with seven elite flesh and blood beasts - don't ask me why it is not possible for seven adventure teams to deal with seven flesh and blood beasts based on elementary school mathematics. Have you ever played a war chess game?
Therefore, for the sake of conservatism, each action team consists of five teams of job-changers and two teams of mercenaries. It is not difficult to negotiate this result. The difficulty is how to distribute it. The strength of the team of job-changers is not Similarly, there are elite teams, ordinary teams, and weak teams. The same is true for mercenary teams, so how to allocate and combine these teams is definitely not an easy task. Thorne and the others have been busy with this these days. Fortunately, according to the scout reports, those dark wanderers were not in a hurry and were still waiting for other dark wanderers to gather the dwarves. They seemed to plan to use all their strength to swallow the elves in one go, so we still have enough time to deploy. .
"call--"
On the street, I had just escaped from Thorn's clutches and took a big breath in embarrassment. Those various tedious things were really not done by humans. Now I finally understand that in the monster attack at Rogge's camp, The most difficult thing is not us adventurers, but Akara and the others who are responsible for organizing the operation. I sincerely admire the ability of these old guys, at least if it were me, let alone organizing tens of thousands of people. Even dozens of people probably couldn't do it.
Now we are also a celebrity in Kurast, and there are almost no adventurers who don’t know us. For example, if I pass by a street in the adventurer area now, it will take me 20 minutes, during which I will nod and exchange greetings on average 100 times. So, now there is a primary school math problem. If I want to walk around for 5 hours, how many times do I need to nod and say hello?
You can understand why I don't dare to go to the adventurer area. I originally planned to go to the bar to ask Dika to teach me combat skills, but I had to temporarily stop it. I'd better wait for the enthusiasm of the adventurers to cool down before going there. By the way, that little fox hasn’t caused any trouble to me these days, which is really strange. Could it be that he has finally changed his ways?
Of course, what I didn't know was that Lucia was currently busy with the formation of her own team. Not only her, but almost all the team leaders of the adventurer team are busy non-stop, unlike some lazy person who has enough to eat but the whole family is not hungry.
Now, I am wandering around the trading area in the west district of Kurast. The purpose of coming here is, firstly, the probability of adventurers appearing here is relatively small, and secondly, I can stroll around and buy some fruits that the little mermaid likes to eat. By the way, I bought some strange ingredients to supply Princess Sanwu for research, such as the aforementioned King Kong meat, Superman meat, Godzilla meat, white devil meat...
As for the last reason, it was a little less pure, just to see if I could be lucky enough to meet an elf. It would be best if the elf came here to shop. I heard from Phoenix that the chance was not small. It's a pity that most of them are men, it's a pity, it's such a pity.
When I was thinking about it, I suddenly heard a "bump" and my body hit something soft. With my current strength, as long as the other party is not a barbarian or a building, it is absolutely impossible for the person to fall to the ground. it's me.
then. The opponent flew out.
"Oh. That's quite interesting. You're not hurt."
I watched as I fell to the ground. Covered in a black cloak. Victims dressed mysteriously. He said with an apologetic look. Judgment based on current situation. Probably the other person was standing in front of the stall buying something. Then I was knocked to the ground while distracted.
"you this……"
A clear and sweet voice with an exasperated voice came from the head covered by the black cloak. Huh? It turns out she is still a girl. That's really a sin.
"It's okay. How about I help you up."
Thinking of this, I stretched out a hand to the other party. In fact, you can’t blame me completely, because most people will actively avoid me when they see me dressed as an adventurer, so they have developed a bad habit that is unique to almost all adventurers - like Go straight across.
"Who wants you, a hateful person... to help me!!"
There was a "pop" sound, and my extended hand was slapped hard. As a result, my hand didn't move at all, but the other party covered his little hand and screamed in pain.
Hey, wasn't the lesson just learned enough? For people like you who don't even have a mercenary strength level, it's best not to attack adventurers. It will only hurt your own hands and feet in vain.
I retracted my hand nonchalantly, and the girl in black robe also stood up angrily, casting an unkind look from her face that was shrouded in black and blurred.
"Tell me, what is your intention?"
Waving her red little hand, the girl in black robe puffed up her proud chest, pointed her finger at me and asked, her voice cold and tinged with a trace of naivety that didn't know anything about the world.
Ha, intention? Can such a trivial matter be elevated to a political issue?
As a career changer, it is rare for me to be able to apologize and calmly chat with this mysterious girl in black robe who is infinitely close to the strength of a civilian. However, we don’t have the airs of a master. Since she wants to pursue the case. , then let’s pursue it enough, I’m very bored now anyway.
Just when I was thinking about how to deal with this silly and innocent girl in black robe, a voice came from next to me, with a cold and unquestionable commanding tone... "Tima, the other party has already apologized, so don't do it. No more nonsense."
Well, this sentence sounded more pleasant to me. I looked next to the girl in black robe named Tima. A woman in black robe who was dressed the same as the girl in black robe and slightly taller than her noticed my gaze. She nodded gracefully, as if she didn't want to attract attention. Ignoring Tima's aggrieved look, he pulled her away quickly.
They were really two strange women. Seeing them leaving, I shook my head in confusion. The older girl was just that. It seemed that she should have the strength of a third-level career changer. Wearing an adventurous black robe unique to adventurers doesn't look out of the ordinary, but the smaller one doesn't even have the strength to be a mercenary, but he is dressed like this, which is a bit mysterious.
After taking a few steps, my body suddenly froze, and the figures of the two girls in black robes flashed through my mind again. Observing with the sharp eyes of an adventurer, they seemed to have slight bulges on both sides of their heads.
Could it be that……
The next moment, I turned around sharply. But they found that they had already disappeared into the crowded street.
What a tragedy. There were two real elves in front of me, but I didn't cherish them. Don't regret it until you lose it. The most painful thing in the world is this. If God can give me another chance, I will say eight words to those two girls, "Can you touch your ears?" If I have to add additional explanation to this sentence, I hope it is to touch both of them together. Forget it, after the action begins, you will soon be able to see the real elves. At this moment, looking at the crowded street, I scratched the back of my head helplessly and continued to focus on each stall.
"White demon meat for sale, with a rare wand..."
"One of the three major delicacies, Stain Meat, Stain Meat, is available in small quantities, so hurry up if you want to buy it. Comes with a special mysterious card made by our store..."
It seems that the promotional methods of the Dark World should not be underestimated, but then again, am I complaining about the wrong place?
After turning around in a circle, I already held a magic wand and a so-called mysterious card in my hand. As a result, I saw that the wand was made of rough wood, and the mysterious card was more of a wooden card than a card. The brand is more appropriate. Turn to the front and take a look. Engraved on it are the four characters "You are a good person"...
Holy shit! !
Before I knew it, I had wandered around the pier of the harbor. I heard the sweaty shouts of the sailors in the distance, and suddenly I thought of Captain Masif. His ship was severely damaged at that time, and the number of sailors was also severely reduced, so he had to rest on the island for about a month. Now do the math. , it’s almost time to arrive in Kurast, or even start again.
Thinking of this, I slowly walked towards the pier, and soon I came to the edge of the pier. In the wide river, hundreds of merchant ships of various sizes were docked densely. It seemed that shipping was indeed very profitable, so it was so Many people take desperate risks. After stopping a few sailors and asking for directions, I finally spotted Masif, with a white turban on his head, a black beard, a gray vest and a tight-fitting open-chested white cloth coat, and his weathered and weathered figure was revealed. His dark and sturdy body was outlined, with a machete slung around his waist. He looked more like a pirate leader than a captain, but anyone who had come into contact with him knew that Masif was actually a very kind-hearted man.
Seeing that it was me, Masif showed a somewhat flattered expression. In the past few decades, he has sent more than a thousand adventurers, but no one has ever been willing to look back to visit him. Some of them have bad personalities and don't even bother to talk to him. By the way, although he is a captain, he is just a merchant and civilian after all. This is the first time for an adventurer like me to come here specifically to visit.
His face looked very good, and he seemed to have completely overcome the sadness of the shipwreck. Only when he talked about those dead brothers, his eyes would still have a sad look, and he would laugh at himself for walking like this. People on the line of death are extremely lucky to be able to walk for decades, so even if they do die one day, it is enough to be happy.
I stood and chatted like this all afternoon. Before I left, Masif suddenly stopped me and asked the sailor to come from the boat and rob me of a golden statue the size of a cup. Below the statue is a square bracket, with a bird spreading its wings standing on top, which looks very delicate.
Masif told me that he discovered this accidentally when he was staying on the island. Originally, he was embarrassed to take out such a vulgar object, but according to some old people, this statue has magical power, and he, a mere mortal, can If you can't get anything out of it, you might as well give it to me as a way of repaying your life-saving grace in the shipwreck.
I curiously took over this lifelike golden bird, held it in my hand and observed it for a while, only to find that there were indeed detailed textures on it. The combination looked like some kind of magic pattern. Maybe there was some mystery hidden inside. Maybe, thinking of this, I accepted it unceremoniously, but as the saying goes, I can't accept other people's things for nothing, can I? Strictly speaking, I took action during that shipwreck just to save myself. And if it weren't for the efforts of Ma Shifu and others, the ship would still have sunk.
So, I looked left and right in the inventory. Thanks to the stall setup, it was much cleaner now, but it was not easy to find the right thing. Yeah, torches, tents, barbecues, fruits, traps. , gold coins, potions and equipment...
By the way, isn’t there still that thing?
I suddenly clapped my hands and remembered the little jade figure that I took away from the dwarf tribe last time. This thing is just an ornamental object and has no use for us adventurers. It is just a gift.
So in the end, I spent a day wandering around the trading market. The results were: I harvested some strange meat products and fruits, spent some gold coins, bought a golden bird statue, lost a jade figurine, and met two suspected elves.
And not long after I left, a small merchant ship sailed past the dock at nightfall. After docking, an old man on crutches jumped out of the ship in a hurry, asking around for Masif's whereabouts...
