Chapter Eighty-Three: Old Street (Thanks to Book Friend Tada for His Continued Support)
Looking at the head chef, Goron temporarily put down the chaotic thoughts in his heart, and said quietly on his face: "What is my task?"
"Mission?what mission?" In the one-eyed Rem's cognition, Goron has no possibility of refusing Baron Kulahan, and he will eventually rely on his face to become the big backer of the Investigation Corps, in the eyes of a small harbor streamer, this is already an extremely bright future, and the child who is favored by Baron Kulahan's own eyes is naturally impossible to continue to deal with his own group of people. As for the D-class mission, to hell with it.
"Yes, yes, hehe, I'm so stupid, how could I forget such an important thing, that who, Winnie's cheap/goods is not here, let her prepare one hundred and fifty for me immediately, and prepare three hundred gold coins to bring over. ”
Seeing the leather bag full of gold coins handed by Rem's hands, Goron tilted his head, although he didn't know what the chef meant, but in line with the purpose of going with the flow and not making a fuss, he took the gold coins and hid them on himself, then looked at the one-eyed Rem, and continued to ask: "What about the mission? Why don't you tell me?"
The one-eyed rem was still studying where Goron had hidden the big bag of gold coins and the dangerous hammer, and after hearing Goron's question, a mouthful of old blood almost spurted out, and he secretly scolded in his heart that this little white face was too shameless, and he had just been on the backer of the Investigation Corps, and he began to blackmail and blackmail frantically. Of course, he didn't dare to entrust any task to Golon, if Goron had three longs and two shorts in the task, it would be strange that the aristocratic viscount who liked beautiful boys didn't turn the "military chicken" into a "roast chicken", so he had already tripled the reward for the task entrustment, one hundred and fifty gold coins, and gave it directly to Golon, which was equivalent to spending money to eliminate the disaster, but looking at this damn little white face, he was not satisfied.
One-eyed Rem was bleeding in his heart, but he was helpless, who told him that he had just made a mistake. offended this little white face with a bright future in the future, what else can he do now except think that he is unlucky, he turned around and said hello, and asked someone to prepare another three hundred gold coins and bring them over, but what made him want to kill was that Goron accepted the gold coins expressionlessly, as if nothing had happened. He was asked about the content of the mission.
"My most honorable uncle, please spare me, these six hundred gold coins are already the net income of the 'military chicken' for two months, and we really can't take out more cash. Otherwise, I'll grab a few high-quality sirens from the storeroom and bring them back. If you like, that Amazon centaur can take it with you."
Look at the head chef who is crying. Goron looked puzzled and said, "I didn't ask you for gold coins, I just want to know the content of this mission." ”
"What other tasks are you talking about, it's just for a few little ogres, how dare you bother you with such a petty fight, I withdraw, I officially withdraw this mission. ”

Walk the dimly lit streets of Tideport and look at the huge moon overhead. Goron's heart was pounding.
After leaving the rainforest, he heard the whereabouts of his people for the first time, and only after he repeated inquiries and assured that the mission had been canceled and that he had nothing to do with him, One-Eyed Rem finally told him the entire mission.
This is a quest related to a group of ogre cubs.
Some time ago, the Tarjin Chamber of Commerce didn't know where to get a batch of ogre cubs, and I heard that they were still the cubs of the famous black hand ogre. This is a hot commodity that any gladiatorial arena will rush to want.
In a large-scale gladiatorial match, the ogre, who is known for his evil and powerful, can bring a sensation every time he steps into the arena, and the ogre's bloody and violent fighting style, as well as the terrifying habit of devouring the opponent's corpse and even ** after defeating, will only attract fear and disgust in other places, but in the gladiatorial arena, where human nature is already distorted, it can only bring countless crazy cheers.
Of course. Every time an evil ogre is defeated, it will also mean the birth of a new gladiatorial arena hero. However, it can also be said that if there is no actual record of defeating ogres, there will be no new "heroes".
Anyway. Just as any wonderful drama must have a protagonist, and even more so, a villain boss must appear, any large gladiatorial arena must not be without a few ogres, otherwise it will be reduced to second-rate. But because adult ogres are too violent, and they are not afraid of pain, they are not afraid of death, and it is difficult to capture, and it is even more difficult to train to become gladiators, so training ogre cubs from an early age and adjusting them as needed has become the most effective solution.
In the slave market, the price of an ogre cub that can be trained is the sum of the value of all the apprentices in the fairytale circus training camp. The price of the two-headed or one-eyed ogre will be doubled. I don't know if this can be regarded as an irony, although human beings are the overlords of Dota Big 6, but human slaves are the most worthless cheap goods in the slave market, except for a few rare slaves with special status, special talents, or strong strength, ordinary human slaves, even handsome young men and women will not be more valuable than an inferior horse.
The Tarjin Chamber of Commerce got these ogre cubs out of nowhere, but for some reason they didn't let them into the slave market, but were secretly hidden by the owner of the Chamber of Commerce in a slave mine to mine for him. Although the ogre's cubs are more robust and powerful than adult humans, having these future gladiatorial stars mine underground is like making a zuò glass window out of precious stones. This is simply inexplicable to the savvy goblin merchant.
But not everyone cares
Through the special channel, the "military chicken" accidentally grasped this information, so the military chicken, which has its own slave trading channel, naturally wants to eat this red goods, but the gold mine is closely guarded by a large number of mercenaries hired by the Tajin Chamber of Commerce, although there is no noteworthy hard role in these mercenaries, but it is said that the guards are very well armed, and the mining area is also equipped with a lot of heavy weapons from the army, and the "army chicken" born from the street hooligans If you want to attack the mine from the front, you can have huge losses, so you want to hire people from the fairy tale circus to act as cannon fodder.
If these circus clowns really have the ability, they can naturally greatly reduce the pressure of the military rooster's attack, even if they are sent to death as soon as they go up, it doesn't matter, anyway, there is no need to pay commissions for the dead, this is the logic of hooligans, simple, shameless, and effective.
Now he has no idea what to do, should he go to the Tarjin Chamber of Commerce and talk to that damn goblin boss? But he knew he had to see the little ogres with his own eyes and see if they were really his own people, the Black Hand Ogre.
Walking and walking, I don't know when, walking aimlessly, Goron has come to a dead end, the ogre boy looked at the graffiti-covered wall and smiled bitterly, turned around, but there were four or five drunken soldiers not far away who were blocking the mouth of the alley, staggering, looking at himself with a malicious smile.

The presence of the Survey Corps has not made the harbor town any safer, but worse.
Many people like to go out at night and have a drink in a tavern, only to wake up to find that all their belongings have been looted and even sold to slave traders. Although the locals will be bought back by their families with a large ransom, the outsiders who have no relatives and no reason will not have this luck, and many people will really become a slave, and life is better than death.
The reason why no one dares to take care of this kind of thing, no one can take care of it, and it has been banned again and again is that the people who created this crime are the soldiers of the Investigation Corps. After they had eaten and drunk to their heart's content, and when they met a single young man or woman on the street, they would go up on a whim and beat them naked, rob them of their belongings, and sell them to slave traders to earn money for the next day's bar, and even better if they targeted young and beautiful women, and saved the cost of going to the old street to find women in the old street at night. Even if they were caught red-handed by the gendarmerie patrol, because they did not cause any deaths, they used the excuse of misidentifying the fugitive slaves, and the victims often did not dare to identify the perpetrators in person, so at most they would be whipped and locked up in a water prison for a few days.
Goron is unfortunate enough to be the target of this group of drunken ruffians tonight. Of course, it may not be him who is really unlucky.
Just as a few of the ruffians approached Goron step by step, suddenly, a row of sharp arrows shot down diagonally from above, piercing the ground in front of the ruffians.
Although they were all seven or eight points drunk, the "veteran" was the "veteran", and when they encountered this sudden enemy attack, they reacted quickly, and their movements were as fast as lightning, and they scattered and fled with a scream, and in the blink of an eye, they couldn't even see the figure. With such skilled escape skills, it's no wonder they've survived until now.
Goron looked at the roof, and saw a black figure flashing away, the other party's shining silver and scarlet pupils were particularly conspicuous in the night, and suddenly, Goron thought that he had seen his beloved little centaur again, but he quickly knew that he had recognized the wrong person, the reason was very simple, the lower body of the archer was a pair of dazzling and bewitching long legs, if Goron was not mistaken, it should be a dark elf.
Just as Goron pondered why the dark elf archer was trying to help him, a group of scantily clad women walked over and pulled Goron up to look at him excitedly and affectionately.
"Welcome to 'Old Street'~~~!" The leader is a mature woman about thirty years old, she affectionately took Golon's hand, rubbed the young man's cheeks with her own pair of hao// breasts, and smiled gently: "Child, don't be afraid, as long as you enter the 'Old Street', then you are our guest, and no one can hurt you here." ”
"Guest, are you talking about me?" Goron didn't know why these women were so enthusiastic about him, and their hands and breasts were still rubbing against him, making his lower body instantly enter a state of imminent battle.
