211. News from the Pai Plateau
I strode up, hugged Marvin and Spee with open hands, and introduced Senior Vernon to them.
Marven was naturally very happy to see me, he took me and Senior Vernon to the side of the rest area bench and sat down, Si Pei wanted to stay in the warehouse to record the number of goods, although there is a special clerk in the firm, but when this kind of bulk goods are put into the warehouse, Marven and Si Pei will personally control the number of goods.
I haven't seen him for nearly two months, Marven has actually lost a lot of weight, and it seems that this trip to the Pai Plateau is also quite hard.
"I heard Arya say, you went to practice again, what did you gain this time?" Marven asked me with a smile on his arm around my shoulders.
His gaze fell on the magic badge on my chest, and he was stunned for a moment, then exclaimed: "Wow, intermediate magic badge!" Jijia, how long has it been, you have actually been promoted to an intermediate magician, if this news reaches back to El City, your name may be written on the Wall of Honor of the Academy of War Magic." ”
"Hello, Your Excellency Wizard Vernon, you are also a student at the Royal Academy of Magic?" Marven was polite in front of strangers, and when he was chatting with me, he didn't forget to chat with Senior Vernon.
"Just call me Vernon, or you can call me Senior Vernon with Giga. Senior Vernon said very casually to Marven, without any shelves, but then he saw Marven's other empty sleeve at a glance, and was slightly stunned.
Marven said calmly: "I accidentally got it during an experience, and I haven't participated in any training since then......"
The young people quickly became familiar with each other, and we sat down on the benches outside the warehouse to make small talk, and our conversation revolved around Marven's severed arm, the story of Xinliugu's experience was not too long, and many of the stories in that experience were long buried in memory, but Marven and Spee's story continued.
Speaking of the brave Si Pei back then, the party was holding a thick account book at the moment, recording the goods in the trading house.
“...... Therefore, finding someone who loves you will be a little happier in your future life than finding someone you love. At the end of the conversation, I summed up this sentence.
Senior Vernon let out a long sigh, turned his head and asked me, "That's what you brought me here for, what do you want to say to me?"
I laughed dryly twice before I said, "Actually, Noah and I just want you to think about this kind of thing a little bit." ”
"I'm fine!" said Senior Vernon managed to squeeze out a smile on his face.
Betty walked down from upstairs with three cups of black tea in an apricot yellow long gauze dress, with a faint smile on her face, walked directly to me, squatted in front of me on her knees, put the three cups of black tea on the square table in front of us, and did not speak, and left with the tea tray.
She is like Arya's shadow, and Betty is also deliberately imitating Alya in many places, including the movement of walking, the charming smile, and some habits between raising her hands and feet.
This makes her talk and behave like an aristocratic socialite, and her shrewd and capable mind allows her to act as a qualified manager.
Even Senior Vernon, who was sitting on the side, was attracted by Betty, and the three of us watched Betty twist her soft and slender waist and disappear at the top of the stairs, and then we all withdrew our gazes.
Then I broke the silence and asked Marven, "How did you feel about this trip to Gurudin?"
Marven said with a smile: "It was really an unforgettable trip, when our magic airship crossed the southern foothills of the Pai Plateau, it actually met a mountain giant entrenched over there, he tried to knock down our airship with stones, fortunately, the captain was experienced, and drove the airship into the clouds, avoiding the pursuit of the mountain giant, the process was a bit thrilling, but fortunately, everything was okay, and there were no casualties." ”
Marven had a thick smile on his face, it seems that this trip to the Pai Plateau still gave him some gains.
Without waiting for me to continue to ask, Marven said: "After we arrived in Guruding Town, we came into contact with the orcs who traded with us, and they agreed to increase the trade quota of magic herbs, but did not agree to reduce the trade quota of canned luncheon meat and meat floss bricks, and it is said that the swamp zombies on the other side of the Death Swamp have not formed a large-scale corpse tide recently, and the quota of corpse fire oil may be reduced in the last few supplies." ”
The orcs promised to increase the trade quota of magic herbs, which means that the Pai Plateau has been in good weather for the past two years and has not suffered major natural disasters, so it is not difficult to collect magic herbs in the wasteland. The disagreement to reduce the trade quota for luncheon meat and meat floss bricks is clearly that the one-horned bison herds in the wasteland are beginning to flood again, and they need a stable channel to sell these foods.
As for the reduction in the supply of corpse fire oil, I think this news is a bit bad, after all, those orc warriors in the Hiero plane have also set up a special fire-breathing team.
Since the orcs have promised to give us some more magic herbs for each transaction, they must also have some demands.
So I asked Marven, "Did the orcs say what they need?"
"They want to buy magic silver ingots! Marven said directly to me.
"Strange, how could the orcs have such a need? The orcs don't like silver. "I'm a little surprised by this, the leaders and elders of the orc tribes like to come to the Grimm Empire for luxuries, but none of the orcs have a special preference for magical Mithril and Thorsilver.
Marven said the answer: "I heard that the lich in the forest at the southern end of the Death Swamp opened the door to the bones of the underworld, and some undead armies began to assemble on the other side of the forest, and the orc tribes on the Pai Plateau, including the wolf orc tribe, the lion tribe of the ligers, the minotaur tribe, and the centaur tribe, these tribes have begun to gather tribal warriors and prepare to build a defense line against the undead army in the area of the death swamp." ”
It turns out that there is also a war on the other side of the Pai Plateau, and the enemy is actually the undead legion in the forest opposite the Death Swamp, I knew that the forest was inhabited by lichs, but I didn't expect them to actually build the Gate of Bones.
I asked, "The orcs are going to be prepared to deal with the undead, so these orcs want to plaster their weapons with a layer of silver?"
"Exactly. Marven replied, and then asked me, "Jiga, should we help those orcs?" ”
"What do you think? I asked Marven rhetorically.
Marven didn't hesitate and replied, "I want to help them, after all, the orcs are fighting against the undead army, and the orcs in the Pai Plateau are the first line of defense against the undead army." ”
Seeing that I nodded, Marven exhaled deeply and said, "I plan to go to the Mining Association to announce the news of purchasing Mithril ingots and Thorsilver ingots there, and I also plan to visit the big miners here in the imperial capital to see if I can buy Mithril Ore in their hands." Fortunately, the five major Mithril mines in Angela have all been recovered, and the Mithril and Thorium in the Grimm Empire market are quite sufficient, and it should not be difficult to buy Mithril and Thorium. ”
