Chapter 294: No Earn, No Return (Alliance Leader's Sweetheart Elf C Yue Plus 9/12)
"This ...... Can I only accommodate a few people? Sarah asked.
"Yes, the fewer people, the better. There is no need to waste so many rooms if your ship can accommodate people, and if you don't make money, you can't return to it, in fact, the boat I used to take when I was building it. At that time, my boat ran aground on the beach and was trapped for a week before I was rescued. I was dying, and the dog I brought with me died after eating dry food soaked in the sea, and had lost an arm to a screaming ghost...... Running off track, anyway, staying in a tavern is not much different from living on a ship. ”
Looking at the getting late, Fiet realized that he had to hurry up, so he stopped talking.
"Then let my younger siblings go." Sarah points to Karn and Kaisha.
Karn was the initiator of the plan, and he had to stay in the tavern to find out what to do. And Kai'Sa is always inseparable from him, so naturally it is impossible to disassemble.
"Aren't you going?" Karn asked, seeing that Sarah didn't say anything about herself.
"I'm not going to go yet, I'll have to stay on the ship and spend the first night with my crew, and I'll check in when it's safe."
Sarah felt that she couldn't move in all three symbiotes, otherwise the crew of the Sirens would not be able to resist effectively if the undead attacked. By the time the three of them came to support, I am afraid that there would have been a attrition.
Seeing that Sarah had her own concerns, Karn didn't say anything.
He asked the proprietress "It's our first time on Shadow Island, and there are a lot of things we don't understand, can you tell us how to protect ourselves in the face of the undead?" ”
"Black Mist, as long as you don't get close. And there are many kinds of undead, I can only say in general terms. ”
Raven was very discerning, and when he heard what Fiet said, he quickly took out his voyage diary and prepared to write.
"There are many kinds of souls in the Isle of Shadows, and there are many ways to expel and destroy them. Some souls are bound to entities, more than objects such as armor, weapons, or amulets in front of them. As long as entities are destroyed, in most cases, their corresponding spirits will also be destroyed. To be sure, sorcery and Hextech can damage them, silver, blessed or arcane-infused weapons do, and many souls are afraid of fire and direct sunlight. Think about this question and ask me more about it. ”
"Planck's treasure may have eligible weapons, Raven will go down with me later, and take out those that can be used to defend themselves first." Sarah said.
"Wait, we met the Shark Chariot when we came, did that thing look like that when we were alive?" Raven jotted down Fayette's words and asked his own question.
"I haven't seen what you're talking about, but he certainly wasn't like that in the beginning...... The appearance of some souls reflects their most central nature over time. Souls with similar temperaments sometimes merge into more powerful spirits, so don't be surprised when you encounter any kind of undead. ”
Karn thought back to the boss's words, and felt that the Shark Chariot must have been a heavily armored knight full of destruction in his lifetime.
Fiette patted his arm: "Okay, I really can't say any more, we're going back before dark." It's only a few steps, so don't be careless. ”
"Hmm." Kai'Sa and Karn followed the hostess aboard the boat, said goodbye to Sarah, and headed to the island tavern.
The proprietress paddled her own oars and parked the boat by herself, and she didn't ask them for any help. Walking up to the dock, the sturdy man named Gavin was still there, joining them as they walked on the black sand.
He introduced himself to the two of them, saying that he was a long-time customer of the tavern.
Several people greeted each other as they kept walking towards the tavern.
Kai'Sa said very little when she met the living, and her cold face was like a mute, and Karn had always communicated with Fiyet.
"Boss, how much do we have to pay for the two of us to open a room?"
"No money." Fiyette said with a smile.
"What about the meals?" Karn asked again.
"A warm breakfast at sunrise, a cool cold drink after dark, an insurance place to store your personal belongings, and a mooring service for the hostess, all at no cost." Gawyn replied with a smile.
"Don't charge money? So what are you trying to do with this store? Now Kaisha couldn't help but ask, how can someone still do a loss-making business and do it so enthusiastically, it can't be a black-hearted shop that eats people, right?
"Because money is useless here, you can't buy anything. And if you take something from Shadow Isle, it's an antique, and you can sell it for a high price if you take it out, so it's useless to ask for money. ”
Gawyn spoke with an unusual flirtatiousness, but Fayette just liked his tone, and having a happy companion on this lonely island made her feel good.
"Don't take me as materialistic, in fact, I like to be hospitable, like a girl can play house games when she is a child. But I'm not here to play, I'm enjoying the feeling of being with the living, so I see a boatload of people coming so enthusiastic, this island is full of dead spirits, and it is inevitable that you will be lonely after living alone for a long time. ”
Kai'Sa could understand a little, as if she had been underground for a long time, and at that time she was very eager to return to the earth and be with the living. But if you want her to be the boss lady, then it's better to avoid it, she feels that dealing with people is not so comfortable.
She prefers to hold Karn's hand and experience life with him.
To make himself more authentic, Fiet added: "Of course, I don't make a lot of money by opening this tavern. For example, treasure hunters will store their valuable treasures with me, and I will usually keep my promise not to touch their belongings, but if I confirm that they are dead or missing for too long, their relics will be in my possession. This way of getting treasures is much less risky than going ashore to hunt for treasures, and I just have to stay in the tavern and do things without risking fighting the necromancy. So I'm the longest-lived one of these people, ten years, and it's a time to be proud of. ”
Kai'Sa nodded, if she hadn't said that, she would have directly regarded Fiette as a black-hearted proprietress who lived by stealing customers. But even if she did, Kaisha's vigilance wouldn't go away.
From time to time, she would bring food back to her room after staying at the hotel and feed it to her skin nails to see if she had been drugged.
Walking through the spiral ring staircase, the four finally came to the door where they did not make money and did not return.
Warm candlelight shone through the doors and windows, and the tattered flags tied to the bow masts whipped in the howling cold wind in the light of the moon.
This is the only sign that can confirm the tavern's location from a distance - in order to prevent hungry ghosts from staring at the place in the dark, Fiet did not build a lighthouse. But because of this, treasure hunters are not easy to find.
However, Karn was lucky, or perhaps deliberately, to find the tavern.
And what he wanted had to do with this tavern.
