Chapter Seventy-Nine: Have a Good Journey
To my surprise, Teridad refused my request to borrow money, and just threw me 50 gold coins, saying it was reserve. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
This is obviously not enough for the cost of the Cave of Time tour.
In desperation, early the next morning, I went around Gatjison again, trying to find out if there was an inscription shop, ready to repeat the old tricks, and then earn some money by relying on an inscription comprehension.
Who knew that the goblins in Garkison all rely on technology to eat, and they don't know anything about magic.
So, I searched almost all of Garkison, and there was no place for me to be proficient in inscriptions.
a chicken, it's really a penny of heroes.
It's just that I want to go to the Cave of Time, is it so difficult? It's really not good, rent a camel and walk over to the head office, right?
After thinking back and forth in my mind, I was thinking about it when I suddenly saw an open-air stall on the side of the street, surrounded by a circle of goblins.
Just as I was curious about what was going on over there, I heard a familiar voice: "Don't miss it when you pass by, come and take a look." ”
Why is this sound so familiar? Think again, hey, such a mellow and magnetic voice, isn't it the Panda Man who ties the moon?
So he squeezed into the crowd like a lively one.
Yuzuki and her younger brothers were doing business, and they spread a colorful blanket on the sand, filled with shiny jewelry and bundles of inscription scrolls.
"Huh? The design of these jewelry ......" I put my finger to my mouth and poked the corner of my mouth: "Why does it look so familiar?" ”
Damn, isn't this Silvermoon City's jewelry? Where did the panda people come from?
By the way, there is a letter from Saiwen in the Yueyue Rim, and she has also been to Silvermoon City?
The adjutant noticed me, and he frowned and bumped his arm against the Yuzuki edge beside him.
"Nitya!"
"Ahh So you're a businessman? "I leaned in.
"yes!" Yuzuki smiled.
"Why didn't you tell me?" I thought to myself, "If I had known that this man was in the business of inscription scrolls, I wouldn't have been in the city for so long."
"You didn't ask me," Yue Yue Yuan sorted out the goods on the ground and handed me a jeweled hair comb, "Let's see if the bleaching is beautiful, can you buy one?" ”
I smiled and said no, and quietly pulled her aside.
"What's wrong?" Yue Yue Yuan looked puzzled.
"By the way, can I work with you?" I was afraid of rejection, but I was cheeky enough to say it.
"Cooperation?" Yue Yue Yuan was a little surprised: "What to cooperate with?" ”
I cautiously pointed to the inscription scroll that had been piled up into a small hill and said, "Inscription scroll, I will do it too." ”
"Really?!" Yue Yue Yuan was even more surprised: "As far as I know, isn't it only in Silver Moon City that someone can make inscriptions, and you will too?" ”
As he spoke, he looked me up and down again with some suspicion, as if to say, "You can't lie to me."
"I really will, you give me paint and a pen, and I can prove it to you." I crossed my waist and looked confident.
Seeing my momentum, it didn't seem like I was lying, so she asked, "Then how do you cooperate?" ”
"I want to go to the Cave of Time, there are still 48 gold coins left, you give me gold coins, I will give you the scroll, what do you think?"
Yueyue's eyes rolled around and said, "It's not impossible, but I've already bought a lot of inscription scrolls from Silvermoon City, I want to order something special, can you make it?" ”
"And what kind of special inscription do you want?"
"High-level inscriptions that can be used on weapons and equipment, of course, will you do it?"
I thought for a moment and asked, "You have to explain clearly how high the high-grade inscription you are talking about, so that I can know if I have the ability to complete it." ”
Seeing that I asked so seriously, it didn't seem like I was bragging, so she asked, "What is it that you can make the highest level of inscription?" ”
This stumped me, my druid character in the game world, before being bugged into the game, would have made the highest inscription card in the current version.
This kind of card, known as the "mystery card", is exactly the same card back before it is opened, but after it is turned over, it is "volcano", "tsunami", "hurricane" and "earthquake" These four cards, and after stacking the ten cards of any card with the same name, you will get a complete set of cards, people who have this set of cards, can use the cards, and permanently obtain the power brought by the card, can control the volcano, tsunami, hurricane and earthquake These four destruction spells, which are equivalent to having one more spell skill, is a very cost-effective inscription item.
And yet now...... I wasn't sure I could make all four of these destruction decks in the same way.
Suddenly I didn't know how to answer, and I was hesitating, but Yue Yue Yuan asked, "By the way, what are you doing in the Cave of Time?" ”
"Tourist ......" even I think this reason is too powerful.
Yuyue Yuan was slightly stunned, jumped up the steps, put his hand on my shoulder, and asked, "Are we friends?" ”
"Count...... Right? I looked at the furry paws on my shoulders and replied.
"Then I'll give you the gold coins first, and when you come back from your trip, how about we discuss it?" Yue Yuan is obviously not stingy with friends.
As she spoke, she nodded to her younger brother, who immediately took over a money bag, counted out 48 gold coins at the end of the moon, and then took out the excess money, pulled the sealed gold thread of the money bag hard, tied it tightly and handed it to me.
"But, but we've just met, and you trust me like that?" I hesitated, not knowing whether to take the purse or not.
"I believe in Saiwen," Yue Yue Yuan smiled, "You are Saiwen's friend, am I still afraid that you will not be able to repay your debts?" Put it away. ”
I slowly took the money bag, and the indescribable warmth in my heart, although the moon was married because of this relationship between Saiwen and I agreed to cooperate with myself, but I obviously hadn't done anything yet, and I didn't even know if I could make a higher-level inscription, so I received the money like this, and I was inevitably ashamed.
So he bit his lip and said, "This is a deposit, and when I come back from the Cave of Time, I will definitely help you make the inscription." ”
"Okay, okay, stop the pleasantries." Yue Yue Yuan couldn't stand my inkblot a little, and said, "Aren't you going to the Cave of Time, why don't you go quickly?" Otherwise, it's noon, and you'll be able to come back at night? ”
"Then I'll go first!" I put away my purse, waved at her, and headed back to last night's bar.
There was no one in the bar during the day, and I walked in, only to see that all the benches in the hall were upside down on the tables, the floor was cleaned and shiny, except for the poster of "A Day Trip to the Cave of Time", where a small goblin sat on the table, wearing what seemed to be the uniform of some goblin consortium, lying on the table and falling asleep.
I looked around and whispered, "Anyone?" ”
No one answered, only the curtain from the back kitchen to the antechamber was blown by the wind and shook slightly, as if in response to me.
I had no choice but to walk slowly over to the sleeping goblin, clasp the table with the knuckles of my fingers, and ask again, "Is there anyone?" ”
The goblin seemed to be dreaming something, with a smile on his face, an intoxicated expression, and a drunken smile, and saliva flowed down the corner of his mouth.
Probably a dream of getting rich and counting gold coins, right?
I rubbed the corners of my forehead, guessing a little helplessly, and waited for a while, seeing that the goblin still didn't mean to wake up, I had to clear my throat and ask loudly again: "Is there anyone?!" ”
The goblin was startled by someone who had been awakened from his dream, jumped up from the stool, twisted his head and looked left and right, and then saw me in front of him.
"You are?" He wiped his saliva with his sleeve.
I pointed to the poster behind him: "I want to go to the Cave of Time, how can I join this tour?" ”
The goblin's small eyes immediately sparkled: "Oh! You want to go to the Cave of Time, okay, okay, I've got you covered. ”
As he spoke, he took out a pen and parchment from under the table, and wrote something on the ground.
I guess he's probably the "Coriz" in the bartender's mouth last night, I wonder if he's a tour guide?
After writing the last character, Coritz handed over the parchment: "This is the ...... Uh, travel safety protocols, please sign on it. ”
If I hadn't eaten the "Fruit of Wisdom", I'm afraid I would have signed it immediately, but I can now read and understand the languages of various ethnic groups, so I have an extra eye and read the terms carefully.
"First, the Company shall not be responsible for any danger that may result in injury or death to the Cave of Time."
Damn, what kind of overlord clause is this? Walking in the desert can also be life-threatening? That's, isn't it? I cursed inwardly.
"Article 2: The Company shall not be liable for any danger that may result in injury or death to the Guest after arriving at the Cave of Time."
My eyelids jumped, this TMD is not a travel safety agreement, it's a selling agreement, right? How do you feel, it seems that this trip is so like a road of no return, as long as you set foot on it, you will never return?
"Article 3: The Company shall not be liable for any danger that may result in injury or death to the Passenger on the way back to Gasison from the Cave of Time."
I closed the parchment roll with a "snap", and finally understood, is it the meaning of not being responsible for anything?
"Are you a tour guide? Come with me? I asked, looking at the goblin in front of me.
"I'm not a tour guide, I'm only responsible for delivering tourists." Coritz barely managed to squeeze out a smile.
"Has a tourist ever signed such a harsh agreement?" I glanced at him.
"This ......," he said, looking down at his feet.
I sighed, for the sake of such a cheap price, there is no tour guide without a tour guide, just send me to it.
So, I picked up the quill on the table, signed my name with a brush, and placed a bag full of gold coins on the table.
Corryz flipped his money bag and widened his eyes in surprise: "Now that you know the content of the agreement, do you still insist on going to the Cave of Time?" ”
"Yes."
Kryz didn't dig into the reason, just put away the scroll and said with a smile, "What do you call it?" ”
"Nitya."
"Miss Nitya, please come with me."
Krytz led me into the backyard, where in the corner was a massive mechanism that bulged like a large metal keg.
The device appears to be steam-powered and is spewing hot air, causing a heat wave to tumble across the backyard.
I looked at the machine and couldn't understand why Kryze had brought me here.
"Aren't we going to the Cave of Time?"
"Yes, it's to go to the Cave of Time, this is the teleportation device to go to the Cave of Time." Corriz walked over to the machine, pressed a red button on it, and heard a small square door open on the machine's belly, from which a spring-like manipulator ejected from the top, with a round cushion at the top.
I looked into the belly of the machine, and the manipulator was connected by countless dense conduits, and the inside of the machine, on the cylindrical metal walls, there were also many crystal pipes, which were glowing pink, very similar to the crystal energy conduits I had seen in the game.
"What do you mean?" I turned around, frowned, pointed at the machine and asked, "You mean, we're going to take this machine to the Cave of Time?" ”
Corriz smiled awkwardly and said, "It's you, I'm not sitting." ”
"What!" I was taken aback: "But didn't you just say that you are in charge of delivering tourists?" ”
"yes, I'm here to keep an eye on the machine," Corriz shrugged, "I'll try to get you there safely." ”
"As much as possible"? I furrowed my brow, remembering the security protocol I had just signed.
It seems that this "Cave of Time Tour" is not very reliable, so should you take this risk?
Krytz seemed to see my hesitation, and said: "If you regret it now, it's too late, but according to Article 10 of the agreement, I can only refund you 75% of the cost of the trip, because you unilaterally canceled the trip." ”
Isn't that the "25% of the gold coins" are missing for nothing?
I'm ruthless, forget it, give all the money, just believe in "goblin technology" once, right?
With that in mind, I asked, "There's always a tourist map or something, right?" Do you want me to wander around there when I get there? ”
Seeing that I was still interested in continuing the trip, Coritz became even more enthusiastic: "Of course, of course, I'll pick it up." ”
With that, he ran back into the room, holding a map in one hand and a backpack that looked like an explosives bag in the other.
"Please carry this on your back." Corryz handed me the backpack.
"What is this?" I took the heavy backpack.
"Parachute!" Kryze's small eyes sparkled: "If you accidentally encounter danger, please open it in time." ”
"Dangerous"? I haven't had time to ask yet.
Coritz couldn't wait to hand over the hand-copied map: "And this, this is the map." ”
As soon as he put on his backpack and opened the map and was still looking at it, Corriz was already urging on the side: "Uh, Miss Nitya, please sit on this cushion." ”
I was shoved and sat on the cushion, looking at the map.
I was thinking that I was quite familiar with the Cave of Time, so it was not impossible to go alone.
Coritz had already stepped forward, pressed a green button on the machine, and shouted, "Have a great trip!" ”
A bad premonition flashed in his heart, and the next second, he heard a loud roar from the machine behind him.
Just as he was about to ask what was going on, he was thrown into the air by a catapult force from under the cushion.
Only then did I realize that this damn "goblin technology" is just a simple catapult device similar to firing cannonballs, no wonder this "Cave of Time Day Tour" is so cheap, and tourists need to sign such a dubious "security agreement". After all, it's just a matter of using this machine to launch people out and it's over?
Sure enough, I was trapped.
But it was too late to say anything, and the moment I was thrown out, I finally remembered that there was something more important to ask.
"What the hell is going to do with this parachute?" My voice was blown out of tune by the wind in the air and reached the ground.
Coritz shouted into the air at maximum volume, "Please pull the bottom line harder." ”
I turned into a meteor in the sky, dizzy and falling in a parabolic shape.
