Volume 2 Chapter 125 The Idea of the Ring

Two days later, Shogues came to the door of Thor's hut again.

"You're just leaving, and you're not going to take anything with you?" Thor opened the door and glanced at Shogues, his expression surprised.

Although he didn't know the exact location of the ancient tomb that Shoggers had mentioned, the approximate distance back and forth, and the time it took to take the adventure, estimated that Thor would take about three or four days at the earliest.

Three or four days is not a long journey, and in addition to personal belongings such as weapons, it is also necessary to have enough water. And adventurers tend to bring more weight than expected to be needed to deal with the unexpected that may occur during the adventure.

But at this moment, Xiugus was standing there leaning against the door frame, dressed in a thin leather wallet, without even a package on his back, as if he was ready to go out into the world with two daggers in his hand.

"Prepare together, you know I've always trusted you. Hughes replied flatly.

Thor stared at him for a moment, then said nothing, turned around and frowned and prepared to go again.

It's not that it's a hassle to prepare an extra piece of food, it's not worth it at all, Thor cares about Shogues's attitude, and his adventurous state seems to be very wrong.

Most adventurers usually prepare everything they need when they form a team to go on an adventure together, which is not only a personal principle of responsibility for themselves, but also an attitude towards adventure.

Some wary adventurers will prepare food themselves, and even if they finish eating food on the way, they will not accept gifts from teammates casually, because if the team has a good adventure, they also have to guard against the ulterior motives of their teammates.

In this dark wilderness, danger never comes just from monsters and powerful enemies, but from all sides.

There is certainly no problem between Thor and Shuggers about calculating interests and harming each other, but Thor is a little worried when he sees that his old friend seems to have lost his basic principles as an adventurer.

Soon everything was ready, and Thor locked the door to the hut and set out on the road with Hughus.

On the surface, Thor was the same as Shogues, just carrying a long sword on his back and carrying nothing empty-handed, but in fact, he stuffed all the items needed for the adventure into the spatial ring.

The strange thing is that Xiugus must not have known the storage function of the ring, but he actually ignored the empty-handed Thor, and looked absent-minded.

After walking for a while, Thor sighed slightly in his heart and led the topic to the ring.

After escaping from the secret realm and taking revenge on Ivan, Thor once brought up the topic once. It's just that at that time, Hughgos was deeply grieved by the death of Covier, and showed that he had lost interest in everything.

However, Thor didn't care about it at the time, after all, if the ring was sold as a piece of jewelry at that time, it would not be a lot of money between the two of them in the end.

Later, Thor went to Newtown to discover the true value of the ring with the help of Chreitty, and opened the use of the ring through the accumulation of spiritual power in a cold winter. Clearly, the value of the ring has increased dramatically.

The reason for the repetition was that Thor had never forgotten that half of the ring belonged to Shogues, so he wanted to hear Shoghaz's opinion.

If Shogues insisted on selling the ring for a large sum of money, Thor would eventually approve of it. But according to Saul's personal judgment, the use value of this ring is far greater than the profit after selling it itself.

Even for this ring, Thor had an idea.

Through the use of this space ring, maybe he and Xiugus will not be short of money in their lives.

The big families didn't know how to use the space items, but it was easy for him to make money with the ring. The simple way to do this is to buy some local specialties along the way and sell them further afield.

It seems to be just a general trade behavior, which seems to be not much different from other merchants, but in fact, it is very different.

The biggest difference is in the cost of all aspects.

Other merchants who want to trade between the two towns must have their own caravans, and the size of the caravan determines the profit you can capture.

No matter how big your caravan is, you will need the corresponding wagons and horses to pull the goods, which is the cost. The convoy passes through the dangerous wilderness, and it is inevitable to recruit a large number of brave guards, which is another cost.

In short, none of these problems exist here in Thor, the only restriction is how much space the storage ring itself can hold, and this Thor has not yet tried it.

All he had to do was stock up in a certain town, and then hit the road with his sword in his hand, and as long as he didn't die in the wilderness, as long as his adventure continued, it could go on without risk.

Even Thor doesn't need to resell high-profit goods such as gems or magic weapons, just some local specialties, food or drinks.

If he is not satisfied with the selling price in the next town, he can also take it to a farther place, every three or five small towns or even three or five territories, until the price is satisfactory before selling.

One can imagine how big a snowball this little stone will turn into once it starts rolling.

For Saul, doing this is not even hard work, it only requires a small amount of capital. Even if there was no trade along the road, his adventure was meant to wander all over the world, so earning this money was really just a matter of convenience for Thor.

It's just an idea at the moment, but Thor thinks it's a good idea to come to fruition, and he's ready to start it at the same time as his adventure begins.

Along the way, Saul revealed all his ideas for this ring to Shogues, without reservation and concealment.

Although Thor even considered killing Shogues when the two first met during the famine, now they are friends, brothers who have exchanged lives, and can hand over their backs to each other at any time.

After listening to Saul's series of thoughts, Shoggers just looked up and smiled flatly.

"It's a good thing, it's okay, you can use it first, don't worry about me. Hughes's answer was only a word.

Seeing this reaction of Xiugus, Thor instantly felt anger start running through his chest again. He said so much about the ring, in fact, he was not talking about the distribution of benefits, nor was he showing off anything, those were all trivial things.

Solgen's wish is to awaken Hughes, to be able to let go of the past and live more actively, passionately, even more frantically. Instead of stumbling like an embarrassed old dog all day long, as is the case now.

In the gray childhood of the Abbey, Thor used to live in cold and loneliness, and then it was Shogues and Covier Erin who dragged him out of the mud and gave him some warmth in his cold life.

Thor knew all too well what a hopelessly barren landscape it was, for he had lived like that before, so now he couldn't watch Shogues stand in the dark shadow of death again. Those days are too painful.

Holding out his hand with a hideous expression, Thor tried to grab Shogues' shoulder. But looking at Shoggs's slightly bowed head and helpless appearance, Thor could only play the most beautiful music in the world in the end, silent.

Corvier died because of himself, and Shogues never blamed himself, never even mentioning it. Thor was willing to lose everything he had in exchange for Cowell's resurrection, but that was irreversible.

Thor used to think that time would make everything pass, but now it's the middle of summer again, it's been a year, and this thing still hasn't passed, and it doesn't even seem to be going to be over in the future.

Some people say that when you see your friends in pain and sadness, it is actually you who are more worried. Thor never believed in that kind of joke before, and he never thought that he would be so noble and great one day, but the reality turned out to be really like this.

Forget it, what else can I do if I have persuaded, beaten, scolded, apologized, angry, and sighed to Hughes?

All the heartbreaking, all the indignation and unwillingness, after all, is just a sigh.

Silent to catch up with Shogues, Saul finally only said a word.

"There will always be a thief in my team. ”

"Thank you. Hughes replied.

The two set out in the early spring morning, the scent of earth wafting in the air and the morning dew hanging on the weeds.

When they left the town, they had caught up with two caravans because of their light travel and brisk steps, and later met a group of stunned rookie adventurers, three men and one woman.

They warmly invited Saul and Shogues to join, and even proposed that the four of them could join Sol and Shogues's side, wanting to increase their experience, but in the end Sol politely refused.

If you go to a familiar place, it is better to say, this kind of temporary team Thor has also participated in a few times, but who knows what will be encountered in the ancient tomb that he is going to today, so forget it.

If you lead the team indiscriminately and in the end, if you encounter danger and die one or two people, you may have to be hated by others, so why bother?

During the night, Saul and Shogues spent their time in the trees, divided into two posts.

When Thor finished the first half of the night and went to wake up Hughes, Thor found that the guy was with his eyes open and hadn't slept at all.

"Won't you sleep, how can you face the rest of the journey if you don't have enough energy?" asked Saul with a frown.

"It's okay, I'm not sleepy, it's just time for the sage. Hughes replied blandly.

"What sage time?" Thor wondered.

"The last time I was on an adventure with the team, I saw a guy standing there in a daze and chatting with him. He said that he had just slipped through the grass with a female adventurer, was in the time of a sage, and was thinking about the meaning of life. ”

"The title sage is usually used to praise the wise scholars of this continent, and to use the sage time to describe the cold image of men and women after the fact, but I think what really refers to is a state of thinking. ”

After a casual explanation, Hughes jumped off the tree.

Saul thought back to what Hughgoth had just said, it seemed to be a joke and it didn't seem to be, he was really not used to Huggus's strange appearance now.

Leaning against the tree, Thor looked to where Shogues was.

There was only a faint outline, and Shogues stood there silently, as if he had become a tree.
