Diablo Destruction

Chapter 396 Akara’s Request

"Dear Wu, last time you brought us a lot of 'good gifts' from Lu Gaoyin. We thought it was appropriate to reciprocate, so we bought some gifts before we came back. You can't It’s a waste of our good intentions.”

Saying this, Lal laughed jeeringly. Not only him, but Doug and Geoff also moved to sit on either side of me, completely blocking my retreat. Then, the three old weasels came to The rooster said New Year's greetings, and took out a lot of things from the inventory with a wicked smile.

For example, bread, jam bread, jam bread with strange shapes, jam bread with subtle taste...

Sorry, wasn't it the last time I came back from Lu Gaoyin that I tricked them with bread? How come I still can't forget it now? My whole heart is not as big as my asshole. It's not like men, especially you, Lal, who are so innocent. In front of your daughter and virtuous wife, is it okay to expose your vengeful character?

"Well, it's not good. It's not like I've never been to Lu Gaoyin. Besides, I don't really like bread."

I coughed a few times and looked at the mountain of bread in front of me. Uh, is this an illusion? Some of the bread seems to be moving and crawling around on the table. If you eat all of these, someone will die, even those who have changed jobs.

"How can this be done? Of course, we won't be so cruel. Three, at least three, just pick three from here and eat them."

Three? What a naked act of revenge. I looked around and found that there were no three better breads in this pile of bread. No matter which one you picked up, you would think, "Would you like to pick another one?" I wonder if I can find safer bread inside."

Since you are unkind. Don't blame me for being unjust. Originally, I wanted to let the three of you play around for a few more days and experience the joy of living. Since this is the case, there is no other way...

"Okay, I'll just eat it, but..."

After hearing what I said, the faces of the three of them were filled with the joy of having their great revenge avenged. But soon I was discouraged by my protracted "but".

"I'm going to Kurast this time. Do you know Kurast? You haven't been there, right? It just so happens that I also brought back a lot of good things from there. I'm sure you haven't seen them. Let's exchange and exchange. This way we can Okay."

As soon as I finished saying this, the three old men immediately started to tremble in a very inconspicuous manner. Lal swallowed his saliva and pointed at me tremblingly, and said in a stern tone: "You want to lie to us again this time? There is no way."

"What are you talking about? How could I be the kind of person who puts my brothers in danger? Even if you don't believe me, you still have the character to believe me." Obviously, my words were BSed by three people at the same time.

"The gift I brought back this time is..."

Said. With a raise of my hand, I lifted a basket high up. It was a delicate basket made of flexible rattan. It contained items of similar sizes. The round and cute gray mushrooms are arranged neatly and decorated with many small ribbons and flowers. The first impression you get is that they are high-end products bought from a boutique. The packaging alone is Worth a fortune.

"Mushrooms? Hahaha - this is also considered a specialty of Kurast, something you can buy in Rogge's camp, hahaha -"

When the three of them discovered that it contained mushroom fields, Lal immediately started laughing maniacally, in his opinion. It's like giving a beautifully packaged piece of pork to the owner of a pig farm.

"This is no ordinary mushroom, it is a mushroom that can only grow in Kurast." I said inscrutably.

"It's probably a poisonous mushroom again."

Doug's big mouth also has the advantage of being a big mouth, that is, if he talks too much, he will always be able to deceive some people.

"etc."

Just when I wanted to open my mouth to argue, Lal suddenly waved his hand and interrupted everyone. At this moment, he lowered his head. The strong body seems to be infinitely magnified in our eyes. He exudes a strong, confident and oppressive aura that can only be exuded by a great master-level figure who has achieved unparalleled results in a certain field.

"Wu. Do you know what I was called when I was a child?" Lal lowered his head and asked steadily and forcefully, with an irresistible majesty in his voice.

"I don't know." I was momentarily restrained by Lar's inexplicable aura, and shook my head blankly.

"When I was a child, my family was very poor, so as a young and sensible person, I often went out to pick edible things such as wild vegetables and mushrooms, so that the precarious family would not collapse. Over time..."

At this point, he suddenly raised his head and scanned us with a serious look. No one dared to look at us. He nodded with satisfaction, took out a mushroom from the basket, and suddenly jumped He went to the table, raised the mushroom high, and made a "I am a superman" gesture.

"Over time, people nearby began to call me a prairie man! The son of the big forest!! The little boy picking mushrooms!!!"

"Oh!! Brother, good job."

Doug and Geoff applauded one after another, and even little Sarah couldn't help but jump for joy. Her big crimson eyes blinked with water, and she cast her admiring gaze on her father without hesitation, letting him stand tall. Lar's face on the table became more and more proud, and his posture became straighter.

"therefore--"

Saying this, Lal reluctantly took back his majestic posture of "looking like a god descending to earth", placed the mushroom in front of his eyes, played with it up and down and observed it for a while, sniffed it with his nose, and licked it, and then announced loudly.

"Based on years of experience and these piercing eyes, I swear in the name of grandpa, these mushrooms -"

My heart immediately jumped up. It was a miscalculation. It was such a miscalculation. I didn't expect that this guy Lal was hiding so much. This time, I was really on the receiving end of a gun.

“It’s not poisonous!!”

With a bang, I fell to the ground.

"Wu, I didn't expect you really didn't lie to us this time. We misunderstood you. I'm so sorry." The three of them held my hand with tears in their eyes and apologized for their suspicion just now.

"Nothing, nothing. If you really want to apologize, how about forgetting these breads?" I wiped the cold sweat from my forehead and responded with a smile.

"No, one size equals one size, you still have to eat." The three refused in unison.

Damn it, these three bastards.

"Since it is a gift brought to us by Wu Yuan thousands of miles away, it would be unjustifiable not to eat it. Come on, let you guys see my unique skills."

Seeing a basket of round and cute mushrooms, Lal almost drooled. Lu Gao, a paladin born and raised in the grassland, could not endure the lack of vegetables and fruits. Although Doug and Geoff preferred to eat meat, they saw that Fresh and delicious mushrooms were placed in front of him one by one, and he couldn't help but nod his head. So the three old men walked out the door carrying a basket of mushrooms, not forgetting to invite Willas, Sarah and Princess Sanwu to taste their craftsmanship.

"Remember to eat bread." Before going out, Laryu never forgot to turn around and remind me.

Then, I took Willas and Sarah's hands and shook my head. He signaled them not to follow. As for Princess Sanwu, she would never touch those mushrooms unless her brain suddenly short-circuited.

then. A few of us just sat like this, like watching TV, watching through the window the three sticks playing in the yard. Geff set up a bonfire, and Lal took straight twigs from nowhere and tied them together. Fresh mushrooms are skewered on top with pieces of meat, sprinkled with some seasonings, and placed around the campfire. After everything was completed, three grown men squatted next to them, drooling as they stared at the mushroom and fresh meat skewers that were gradually cooked by the campfire and exuded a burst of fragrance.

"That's it."

With a roar, Lal grabbed a bunch with one hand and put it into his mouth with all his strength. Doug and Goff were even more exaggerated because of their size. They grabbed two skewers in each hand. You can eat half of it in one bite, and your mouth will be so hot that you'll be wheezing. But it's delicious.

In less than a minute, more than a dozen skewers were swept away by three people. They patted their stomachs with unsatisfied intentions. Obviously, they had not eaten enough. However, it seemed that it didn't matter anymore. Soon, the three people fell in the yard like maggots. He was still rolling on the ground, muttering constantly. After about ten minutes, his body straightened up and there was no movement.

"So, you have to be careful with things that don't look poisonous, you know?"

I kissed each of the stunned Salad and Vilas on their pretty faces, then destroyed all the bread on the table, took out the delicious fruits I brought back from Kurast, and shared them with everyone.

A few hours later, the three cops woke up one after another.

"I seem to have had a dream." Lal rubbed his head, looking confused. The barbarian brothers were also scratching their heads.

"Brother, there is still half a basket of mushrooms here, what should I do?" Doug asked.

"This mushroom tastes good. Keep it for dinner tonight." Lal said matter-of-factly, and Gefu nodded.

The tragedy of these three guys seems to be continuing.

Early the next morning, I put Willas on the ground, broke away the hands and feet that were wrapped around me like an octopus, kissed the quiet and beautiful face that was still sleeping, and put it on. After putting on my clothes, I walked out of the door and stretched. My eyes fell on the two tender white sheep in the fence involuntarily, and I swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

In the morning on the grassland, the air is so good. After breathing for a few minutes, I feel that my body, mind and soul are full of vitality. The thin mist is blown by the breeze carrying the fragrance of flowers, and the slightly moist and refreshing feeling makes people feel refreshed. .

In order to make a living, the residents of the camp usually get up very early. The fog in the early morning has not completely dispersed, and there are already many people coming and going on the street. Groups of cheerful patrol soldiers pass by in neat rows and stop to talk to me. The peaceful scene greeting people almost makes people forget the fact that this is a cruel world full of blood and killing.

When I approached Akara's tent, my steps slowed down. I listened attentively, and there was a faint noise inside. Am I really the last one to come? Sighing, I couldn't escape anyway, so I simply quickened my pace again and strode towards the tent.

As soon as you opened the tent door, you were immediately greeted by two eyes, those of Akara and Kasha. Although Akara was blind, when she faced you. You will feel a stronger sense of being observed than ordinary people's eyes.

The other two elders, the miser Farah and the old bookworm Kane, did not pay attention to me. They looked at each other angrily like fighting cocks. The faint noise just now was the two of them arguing.

"What's wrong?" I poked Kasha.

"The miser's optimization of the long-distance teleportation array has been studied."

The old drunkard curled his lips and said, smelling of alcohol. If you drink alcohol early in the morning, you will die in a barrel sooner or later.

"This is a good thing. What are these two people arguing about?"

"The research has been done, but the problem is how to use it. The miser suggested spreading it slowly and not in a hurry, but Kane wanted to popularize it early to reduce shipping costs. Let the price of paper come down, that's it." Old Drunkard Yawning, this kind of thing didn't matter to her.

So that’s it, I muttered to myself. I glanced at Akara and found that she was sitting there silently, drinking the refreshing water with a smile on her face, looking calm and composed.

"If speed becomes popular too fast, what will happen if all adventurers know about it? If they are not allowed to use it, they will definitely be dissatisfied. If they are allowed to use it and run around, the whole world will be in chaos. ?”

Farah puffed his beard and glared at Kane, with a look of contempt as if your brain was filled with water.

"This is an issue with the operation of your Mage Guild. I didn't say that I wanted to publicize it. Isn't it okay to come secretly? If your Mage Guild can't even hide this thing, then you might as well go home and plant sweet potatoes."

"It's easy as you say, you should give it a try, old madman."

"Okay, if you are able, you can leave the Mages Guild to me, and I will show you how to do it, silly old man."

"If the Mage Bus is left to be taken care of by someone like you, it will collapse within three days."

"Don't worry. I can support it for at least three days. If you say so, I'll probably be ordered to disband tomorrow."

"What did you say?" Farah looked furious.

"Are you so sad that you can't understand people?" Kane is indeed an old scholar, and he is very good at talking.

A lot of old men from two grades stopped talking. They leaned down slightly and spun around each other, making an attack pattern like sumo wrestlers confronting each other, glaring at each other with both eyes, seemingly wanting to use force to solve the problem.

"Hiss——"

Farah pulled out a crutch, waved it in the air a few times, and then looked at Kane with a sneer. In the past few fierce battles, he suffered the disadvantage of not having a weapon in his hand, and ended up being hit on the head by Kane's crutch. It left many traces, but things are different now.

Facing Farah's provocation, Kane sneered disdainfully and suddenly pressed down on his crutch. As if something had been triggered, the head of the cane fell off, leaving a straight and even stick more than one meter long, and then this One stick broke from the middle and became two. The two sticks broke from the middle again. However, this time they were not completely separated, but were pulled together by the chains.

In the stunned eyes of everyone, Kane's crutch turned into a pair of nunchucks. He held one in each hand and started swinging it rapidly. Suddenly, there were shadows of sticks and loud whistling sounds all around him. Looking at his skillful appearance, It is absolutely impossible to do it without practicing hard for two or three years.

Finally, he put the stick away, clamped it on his left and right ribs, and made a threatening sound towards the stunned Farah opposite. At this moment, Kane was already protected by Bruce Lee.

"Just fight, who are you to be afraid of? Don't think that you are a master after learning one or two moves." After a pause, Farah's face darkened, and he also danced with the cane in his hand loudly, playing with sticks, and took the lead in facing Kai. Enfa is in trouble.

"Crackling——"

The whole tent was suddenly filled with shadows of sticks and broken pots, and we moved the table to the corner early, holding cups, sipping the refreshing water, and watching expressionlessly the two old men coming and going. The fight was so enjoyable.

Finally, Kane was exhausted and took the lead to retreat. He gasped and put away his crutches. He knew the opportunity and knew that the old man Farah was a level 82 mage. Although he suppressed his strength to fight with himself, his physical strength and recovery ability were There was nothing I could do to suppress it, so I hit Farah twice on the head, and I also received a blow on my waist. I stopped as soon as I felt good.

"What, stop fighting?"

The old drunkard smacked his lips with a rather regretful expression. This kind of scene was rare.

The two old men glared at Kasha. Then he turned his attention to Akara. It was obvious that she, the great elder, was going to speak out.

Slowly putting down the cup, Akela glanced at the two of them with his white eyes, and spoke with a faint smile.

"As for the matter of remote teleportation, we can't rush it for the time being. If the adventurers in Harrogas are allowed to return to Rogge Camp at will, wouldn't the camp be in chaos? But if they are not allowed to use it, it will definitely cause dissatisfaction. So. , we must first set the rules to satisfy the adventurers without causing chaos in various adventurer areas, so it is better not to expose this matter for the time being."

Hearing what Akara said, Farah suddenly became happy and glanced at Kane: Old madman, have you seen this? Or am I prescient?

However, before she could finish feeling proud, Akara continued to speak.

"But Kane's suggestion is not bad. Not to mention that it can popularize paper books in large quantities. Moreover, it is also a good opportunity for our Rogge camp to make money. It can be said to kill two birds with one stone. That's it. Don't popularize the magic circle yet. But you can secretly Deliver paper.”

Having said this, Akara showed the unique smile of a "smuggler". Smuggling, I dare not say it is the most profitable industry, but it is definitely one of the most profitable industries.

Hearing what Akara said, Farah's old face suddenly became bitter: "But paper can't stop the fire. If you do this too much, I'm afraid it will spread sooner or later."

Just in case anything goes wrong then. Don’t you have to take advantage of yourself as the president?

"The delivery volume doesn't need to be too large. Let's discuss this matter later and come up with a better solution." Akara said without a doubt that she would never let go of this good opportunity to make money.

After hearing what she said, Farah muttered a few words in a low voice and could only nod in agreement.

"Okay. Wu is already here. Let's start the meeting now."

Akara clapped his hands gently and waited for everyone to sit down. The blind eye suddenly faced me.

"Wu, I must apologize to you for hiding the matter about Kurast from you. I hope you can forgive me."

Unexpectedly, Akara directly touched on the topic that I had always been worried about. I smiled bitterly and I could only shake my head.

"Sir Akara, I understand. There is no one to blame for this. I believe you must have been unwilling to make this choice." Yes, unless you are a fool, no leader would give up more than sixty precious people in vain. What about soldiers going to die?

"This is the helplessness of being an elder. There are many things that we are not allowed to be emotional about. If I were given another choice, I would still do it. Wu, do you understand what I mean?"

"I understand, but I may not be able to do it. It seems that I, as an elder, am not qualified for my job."

"There are some things that only you can do." Akara said meaningfully.

Then, the meeting without much nutrition began. It was nothing more than Akara and Kane discussing the situation in the camp and other places. Kasha reported on the military situation in the training area and the camp. As for Farah, he was responsible for optimizing the remote teleportation array. It has just been completed, and there is nothing to say for the time being. I, on the other hand, told the story of this Kurast operation. Although they already know the general details, after all, I, as the person involved, can only tell you the details. out.

Near noon, this thirsty meeting came to a halt after everyone took turns speaking and discussing, so I took the opportunity to ask.

"By the way, what exactly is Old Galen good at, and why do you value him so much?"

Old man Gallon? Akara and the others looked at each other with wry expressions on their faces.

"It's hard to explain clearly. You will know soon. He is a Druid master. Maybe he is not as good at combat as you think, but for my understanding of the Druid profession, I But I can guarantee that he is definitely the number one person in the entire Dark Continent, and you will definitely learn a lot by following him."

Akara explained eloquently, and his tone even contained the same sincere admiration and respect as when he mentioned Yalandlan, the great elder of the elves.

Oh, this old man Galen, who seems to be a master, is really so amazing. After hearing what Akara said, I became more and more interested in what I could learn from him.

At this point, the meeting seemed to be over, but Akara did not speak. There was a weird atmosphere in the tent, as if the other four people were hiding something from me, and I felt very unhappy.

"Wu, we have something to discuss with you. No, we are asking you to agree." Finally, in the silent atmosphere, Akara's soft voice rang out.

"Whatever it is, tell me and I will think about it."

Seeing Akara's serious expression, I felt uneasy. Although I was very pleased that she didn't hide anything, what exactly was it that deserved Akara's caution? Could it be something that would embarrass me again? , judging from her appearance, it should be right.

"Dear Wu, I hope that you can make some sacrifices for the cooperation between the alliance and the elves." Akara sighed and said slowly.

"Just tell me what is going on, Mr. Akara." My expression gradually calmed down. It was a blessing, not a curse. It is a curse that cannot be avoided.

"I hope you can become the prince of the elves..."

"Huh? What do you mean?"

"In other words, combining with the Elf Queen..."
