The small bonfires piled up at random were burning brightly, making crackling sounds, and the popping sparks were dancing in the silent darkness like fireflies.
It has been three days since the start of the operation. These three days can be described as mixed joys and sorrows for me. First of all, the three brigades have penetrated deep into the edge of the elven realm and are fighting waves of dark wanderers. Most of the teams have made some achievements, and the results are gratifying. The most important thing is that there have been no casualties so far. It seems that although the seven adventure teams are a group, they are a little conservative, but the safety is fully guaranteed. .
But the good news ends here. What worries me the most is that friction between adventurers and elves is inevitable. Some elven villages are quite friendly. Seeing that our adventurers dispersed the dwarf army and helped The villages avoided casualties and received them lukewarmly, but many more villages did not appreciate it at all. Some even fearlessly said that even if the village was killed, it would not need us humans' support. This attitude is really a headache. Should I be angry with them for being ignorant, or should I laugh at them for not taking the lives of their companions seriously?
Therefore, in the past three days, I have finally experienced the pain of leaders. I have been running around for various disputes without much rest for a moment. Even Xiaoxue, who has never been tired, sticks out his tongue at the end of the day. , and, if the incident location is closer, luckily, you can get there in a few hours. If it is far away, for example, those in the first and third teams who are advancing faster may not be able to get there in a day or two. In this case, we can only rely on the team leader or team leader to adjust. Fortunately, both our side and the elves are more sensible. The friction was just verbal exchanges, and there was not a single case of a fight.
Just as I was flicking the scarlet charcoal fire with a branch, eagerly looking at the barbecue and milk soup on it, and enjoying the rare moment of tranquility, the sound of footsteps coming from the darkness made me sigh.
"grown ups."
A mercenary wearing a night uniform that blends in with the night. He bowed to me behind his back and asked whether these disturbances were a bit dramatic. Originally, they were only responsible for investigating and delivering news. Unexpectedly, it was probably a bad idea from a few guys who had read too many novels, and even the clothes began to be standardized. By the way, did you make a mistake? Want to become a thief?
But nonsense is nonsense. The level of these guys is getting higher and higher. If this elven war lasts for a year or two, maybe they will actually cultivate talents in this field and create a thieves guild or something. I believe it. Kara would also be happy to see this kind of talent emerge.
The Night Walker mercenary glanced subconsciously and found that everyone around the campfire except the leader of this operation. There is also his maid and mercenary - a petite ice mage with a somewhat weird dress. There was another girl in white robe, with her back facing him. The most surprising thing is that the body actually emits a white light that is not inferior to that of a campfire. This light was so holy that it was like seeing an angel coming, giving him an impulse to worship.
Retracting his mind, the mercenary began to report the situation he had sorted out. As he spoke, he saw a golden puppy striding out of the tent, barking, looking at himself, revealing a trace of With contempt, he tilted his head and swaggered down next to the campfire, yawning. This kind of treatment made the mercenary dumbfounded? Have you been despised by a dog? Could it be an illusion? Putting aside everything else, can a dog show such a human expression? Thinking of this, he tried to convince himself that it must be his own eyesight.
"Alex, are your brothers over there safe? You didn't encounter any danger when delivering the information."
from the report. I learned that this man dressed in night clothes was actually a desert warrior. The name is very impressive. Called Alex. It was very inconsistent with his current sneaky appearance.
"Thank you for your concern, sir. Thanks to those dark wanderers, most of the monsters have been eliminated by them. The brothers have encountered almost no danger." Alex smiled gratefully.
"Yeah. That's good. By the way. You haven't had dinner yet. Come on. Let's sit down and eat together." I saw Alex still standing behind me. I quickly invited with a smile.
No. I have to rush back now to prepare. I can only accept your kindness. "Alex shook his head and refused. His eyes were very firm.
"In that case. Okay. But don't tire yourself out."
"yes."
Alex's figure quickly disappeared into the darkness. When I turned around, I found a tragic scene - the little ghost who was napping just now, the dead dog with a careless expression, and something like Princess Sanwu, who was in a daze, had already stretched out her magic hand to the barbecue in the campfire at the moment when I turned around. Princess Sanwu was okay, she still retained royal reserve in her eating manner, but her speed was not slow either. The dead dogs and little ghosts with no appearance at all looked like they were gobbling up food. It reminds me of the eating and drinking competition after the second level in the arcade Three Kingdoms. Even if I shake the joystick and press the buttons at 30 times speed, it is not as exaggerated as their current speed!
Damn it, if I don’t eat it, I’ll be gone.
After having enough wine and food, I started to knead the little ghost's face, which was softer than fermented dough. While making a mournful sound of unknown meaning, I looked at me with troubled eyes, as if to say, what are you doing for no reason? Bullying again, but just now she ate the most, stretching her belly so much that she could hug me. At this time, she was completely unable to resist my intrusion. This is your own fault, and you can’t blame anyone else. Wakaka----
"I dare you to say that there was never a time when it was not caused by you."
While enjoying the wonderful feeling, I looked at the little ghost being rubbed and smiled secretly with a ridiculous expression. I pretended to be vicious and said, yes, this little guy is the source of all evil. I thought about the way Princess Sanwu ate at the beginning. It was still elegant and slow, and even the dead dog seemed to have a bit of aristocratic temperament, but ever since I saw the little ghost's movements. Everything has changed—because if it doesn’t change, there will be nothing to eat! !
Every time I thought about how all the food had been eaten away by the little ghost before I was full, and then I had to get up in the middle of the night to go to the toilet, hiding in a corner in the dark with tears, gnawing on hard and cold dried meat. My heart feels like it has experienced the vicissitudes of ten world wars.
"What's going on with this mouth? Why can I eat so fast?"
I pinched the little ghost's cheek and gently pulled her seductive lips into a straight line. Damn it, it’s a cherry mouth type that looks like it can only fit a lollipop when it’s sipped. Why can he swallow a whole fist-sized barbecue with all the bones? Do you think this is a comic? Look below, you can see the smooth and slender waist that is slightly bulging even after eating a small bowl of rice, but there is no bulge at all after swallowing a whole roasted beef. Do you think this is science fiction? Such a mouth and such a stomach are simply more buggy than my buggy sword!
Looking down from my waist, I squinted my eyes and used my hands again. Today, I am going to vent all my dissatisfaction with the little ghost these days.
"Also. How many times have I told you. Now that you have gradually adapted to appearing in front of other people, then put on your underwear for me, you bastard. What if a gust of wind blows over? If you don't think about yourself, you have to Think about it for me. How shameful do you think I am to go to a clothing store to buy underwear for you, you bastard?!"
"But (but)..."
The little ghost who I kept rubbing my cheeks reached vaguely, signaling me to stop for a moment, as if he had something important to say.
"But you can obviously ask little Jasmine to buy it."
Rubbing his slightly red face, he raised his head and looked at me angrily, his eyes constantly searching for flaws all over my body.
There was a moment of silence.
"Wow!!"
The little ghost, who was caught off guard by me and hit his forehead with a snap of his fingers, covered his forehead and looked at me with tears in his eyes like a bullied little animal.
"Why are you bullying me again?"
"A real man never needs a reason to do things." I raised my head and looked far away, with endless melancholy and vicissitudes on my face.
"There are flaws."
The moment I raised my head, the little ghost screamed and rushed towards me, holding my head and biting it down. A pair of sharp teeth kept grinding on it. He was dead, he was going to die. This time I was really finished. ah! ! Damn dog, how dare you take advantage of the fire and rob me? Just wait for me. Tomorrow I will use your dog skin to make underwear for the little ghost...
More than half a month has passed. At this time, we have advanced into the hinterland of the elves, and the battle has gradually become fierce. I alone saw several abandoned elven villages, probably resisting several waves of dark wanderer attacks. After that, we suffered heavy casualties, unable to fight anymore and chose to migrate. Not only the elves, but our Adventurer Alliance also suffered casualties. The four mercenaries who participated in this operation left this cruel world forever, which made me feel sad and helpless the most. Surprisingly, one of them turned out to be the Rogge archer who first visited me when I was setting up a stall. I recalled her sweet smile when she was chatting with me, and looked at the white lips on the ground. , her eyes were tightly closed, her pale face had lost its vitality, and her comrades were crying loudly beside her. I felt confused in my heart. I couldn’t tell whether it was anger or regret. I just felt that there seemed to be countless sharp people around me who were blaming me for my incompetence. The eyes are looking at myself.
So, that night, I had a nightmare. I dreamed that Vilas and Sarah were lying on the ground lifelessly like the Rogge archer, and I, instead of her teammates, knelt on the ground and cried. I woke up from a dream, covered in sweat, and fear that I had never experienced before shrouded my heart. It took a few days to get rid of the heaviness, but the scene in the dream that could make me collapse in an instant was already buried in my soul. the deepest part.
On this day, while I was riding around on Xiaoxue, waiting for the mercenaries who had assumed the role of thieves to deliver the news, I met other adventurers. After waiting for a while, the mistress who was patrolling nearby came back. Behind them were thirty or forty figures, who seemed to be a group from the second brigade.
But when they walked in and took a look, my eyes widened. They were all acquaintances.
The captain of the first team, along with his teammates, four other job transfer teams, and two mercenary teams came over shaking their heads. A closer look revealed that there was the Little Fox team inside, and even Phoenix was inside. , This is great, almost all the adventurers I know in Kurast have gathered together.
"How did you get together?"
Seeing a group of monsters wandering in front of me, I was quite speechless.
"Why can't we get together?" Kurt in front touched his bald head and asked with a smile.
"Okay, let's skip this question for now. Isn't this the area that the Second Brigade is responsible for? As the captain of the First Brigade, why are you here? Be careful that Nalani (the captain of the Second Brigade) will blast you with explosive arrows. Butt." There is no doubt that if the female Amazon wanted to, it would not be difficult to do so in this unique environment for her.
"Huh? That's not right. I'm sure it's the area that the First Brigade is responsible for. You made a mistake." Now it was Kurt's and the others' turn to be confused.
"Do you mean to say that I am lost again? Let me tell you, I have never been lost before!!"
Hearing what they said, I immediately felt unhappy. I followed the second brigade all the way with my extremely accurate seventh sense as a man. How could I have gone wrong?
In fact, there are obviously many explanations, but this guy just wants to expose the answer that he is trying so hard to hide. No, no, no, it's so good that I can't help it. Phoenix covered his mouth and endured it very hard. He knew that if he laughed now, he would inevitably have his anus exploded again by some small-minded person in the future.
"Ahem... By the way, Mr. Wu Fan, we have received information now that the twelfth group not far ahead seems to have a dispute with the elf village. You came just in time." One of Kurt's wizard teammates is smart, He immediately changed the topic, strangling everyone's suppressed laughter in their throats.
Under the leadership of Kurt, a group of us set off towards the destination. At this time, the restless little fox came up, raised his little tail and boasted to me about the harvest in the past half month, telling me one by one dearly. Goosebumps arose, and the people around looked at the two of us and snickered, completely entering the theater-watching mode.
About an hour later, we finally arrived at the elf village where the dispute occurred. A small village composed of flowers, green leaves and towering trees appeared in front of us. Unlike in the novel, the elves in the dark world do not live in trees. They also want to build houses, but the houses they build are more artistic than humans, and the houses they build are more beautiful and closer to nature.
After a cursory glance at the beautiful village in front of me, I set my sights on the entrance of the village. There was a group of adventurers standing in the village, and inside was a large group of elves. There were many corpses of dwarves lying in the middle. A tense confrontation could be heard from afar. Come over.
