CHAPTER XIV

To be honest, the center of Camp Rogue as a paradise for job transfers is essentially no different from the West End, it is nothing more than buying and selling and entertainment consumption, the only difference is that it should be neat and beautiful, unlike the West End, where tents are messy and built all over the ground.

As I walked down the gravel-paved streets, I couldn't stop looking at the wooden houses on either side, most of the things sold here were related to the ex-job, such as sturdy tents, and food for the journey that would last for a long time, such as pickled fish hanging from the front of the store, and the kind of jerky that Doug ate.

The most is still the hotel, generally speaking, unmarried male transferees, especially the barbarians, will be more sloppy, this I deeply understand, in that half a month of travel, occasionally found a water source, Lal and I will run to wash our bodies, but the two barbarian brothers have never touched the water, at most under the angry gaze of Lal, reluctantly wiped their bodies twice, I think if it were not for their muscles too strong to eat, at this time their bodies would have been crawling with fleas.

So, although there are tents, these job changers who are not short of money prefer to choose a cleaner hotel to live in, and perhaps, I will have to find a cheaper hotel later.

However, I have always wanted to see the legendary magic item shop, but I have not been able to find it.

"Can you come over for a moment, young man?"

As I walked aimlessly, dazedly, an old and gentle female voice sounded not far away, although this sentence was very general, for the owner of this old voice, probably most of the people walking on the street now could call it a young man, but I felt that she was calling me, it was a wonderful feeling, I don't know how to describe it, anyway, I stopped and looked at the voice.

It was a very ordinary old woman, wearing the nun clothes that many ordinary women like to wear, with a few deep wrinkles on her forehead and eyebrows, about 5 or 60 years old, and it could be vaguely seen from the contours of her face that she must have been a great beauty when she was young.

She is not as old as her voice, I guess it may be that she has been in a high position for a long time, and over time she has formed a relatively low and hoarse tone, which makes her voice sound extraordinarily vicissitudes.

And the most striking thing about her is the pair of white eyes.

Combined with her dress, and the respectful look in the eyes of the haughty transferees on the side of the road when they saw her, I dare to assure you with the honor of the druid, this is the name of the rookie instructor in the dark, the actual head of the entire Rogue camp, Akara is undoubted.

"Hehe...... young man, can you come and have a few words with my poor old woman?"

Akara waved to me with her other hand, which was not holding a cane, and the smile on her face reminded me of the grandmother who had passed away for a long time, and who loved me the most.

"Okay, okay......" I involuntarily walked towards Akara, who slowly turned around and walked into an alley.

Following Akara, I staggered around a few corners, and walked for about ten minutes, until I finally came to a small clearing.

It's not right to say that this is a small open space, because there is a small gray tent in the open space, but the small tent is so small that it is easy to ignore compared to this small open space, which is not too big.

"Young man, if you don't dislike the old woman's house, come in and sit down."

Akara nodded back at me and slipped into the tent, and I followed.

When I entered the tent, I was surprised to find that the space inside the tent was not as narrow as it seemed from the outside, no, it was even dozens of times larger, and I was worried about whether there would be a place for me to sit inside.

"Come, young man, sit down." I don't know when, Akara had already brought a cup from the side, motioned for me to sit on the wooden chair next to me, and then handed me the cup, and slowly walked to the chair opposite and sat down.

I looked curiously at the cup that Akara handed me, it contained a pale green liquid and was steaming hot.

Could this be tea, I thought to myself, and I couldn't wait to take a sip.

The water was a little hot, almost burning my tongue when I first entered it, but it instantly turned into a cool breath that slid into my throat and then into my limbs and brains, and this wonderful feeling lasted for a long time before slowly dissipating, making my whole body clear.

It's not tea, but it tastes better than the best teas.

"Hehe~~ young man, how does it taste, this is the Qingshen water that I made myself." Akara laughed.

"Well, this is the best thing I've ever drunk," Qingshen water? The name is a bit vulgar, but it's really appropriate, I nodded sincerely, looking at Akara, I still have a lot of doubts about her inexplicably calling herself, but it just so happens that I also have a lot of questions for her, such as the question about Andariel's resurrection that I talked to Ral about earlier.

Looking at me without saying a word, Akara seemed to suddenly remember something.

"Look at my old woman, when I'm old, I forgot everything, and I haven't introduced myself yet, it's really rude."

"Where." I hurried to respond.

"My name is Akara, and I'm selling little things in this Rogue camp, but I'm just an insignificant old woman, maybe you've heard my name from someone else's mouth."

Akara said with a smile, her ordinary appearance and kind look really looked like an ordinary old woman.

If I can be deceived by this ordinary appearance, then I won't be called Wu Fan, I'm really fainting, it seems that you are the only one selling magic props in the entire Rogue camp. If you want to sell small things, then I can't even afford to wear underwear.

He is in charge of tens of thousands of archers in a Rogue camp, and even thousands of reunions can be dispatched at any time. If you're insignificant, then I'll be a slave who has to sell sweet potatoes for the common people.

"Well...... Kindness? I...... My name is Wu Fan, a new druid, the original ...... It turned out to be Lord Akara, your big name boy...... The kid has already been thunderous. ”

I pretended to be panicked and stood up, and said solemnly, to be honest, I do admire this old nun, think about it, just keeping the entire Rogue camp so well organized, it is already very powerful, and you look at her tent, as well as the simple furniture inside, you can see that she still maintains a light and simple life, not to mention the guards, she is very old, and she doesn't even have a waiter, isn't this the dark version of Kong Fansen?

"Hehe~~ It's just an ordinary old woman who is loved by everyone and is not worth mentioning."

Akara smiled and shook his head, his expression was not contrived at all, which made people feel good, unlike some leaders, who said one thing and did another.

Taking this effort, I took a closer look at this "small" shop, I have to say that the inside is really very simple, in addition to a few tables and chairs to greet guests, there is another door, probably a bedroom or something, the rest of the space, all are occupied by several huge shelves and cabinets, the shelves and cabinets are full of bottles and cans, just like a witch hut, but ......

"Lord Akara, why is the tent so big inside and so small from the outside?" This is the question I have been thinking about since I entered the tent.

Akara sighed as if he had penetrated my thoughts.

"It wasn't the boring old men of the Wizards' Guild who said they wanted to rediscover the spatial magic invented by the greatest wizard more than 1,000 years ago, Lord Ta-Rasha, so they snatched my wife's tent and made it up."

"Rediscovered?"

"Yes!" Akara's voice was gloomy: "In the battle of original sin more than a thousand years ago, Lord Ta-Rasha accepted the instructions of the gods to seal Baal, one of the three demon gods, with a broken soul stone as the core and his own life as the container, and because of this, we were subjected to the crazy revenge of the resisting forces, but the gods were ......"

Akara's face showed a layer of sadness that could not be melted, and when he spoke of God, his tone seemed to be very intense, I don't know how to describe it, but it was definitely not respect and worship.

"Lord Ta-Laxia is the leader of the Magician Guild, so the entire Magician Guild is also the target of the strictest revenge, and in the end, the entire Guild has almost been wiped out, and a large amount of information has also been lost with this revenge, since then, the magic level of the Dark Continent has almost dropped to a primitive state, and every Qiē has to be re-explored."

The vicissitudes of life, which was almost an open secret, gave people an even more shocking feeling when it came out of Akara's mouth.

“……”

Secretly said that he should not cause such a topic, looking at Akara's sad appearance, I don't know what to say, at this time, the words of comfort are so pale and weak.

"Oh, why did I suddenly talk about this, you see I'm an old woman, I'm old, and I just like to talk about some boring past." Akara seemed to change her face, and returned to her smiling appearance.

"The old guys from the Wizards' Guild took my tent to test, and after I came back, it became like this, a group of old men who were not at home at home, said that they had succeeded halfway, and made the space in my tent larger, but the way to restore it was not found, so it could only be like this." Akara said complainingly.

"Isn't that nice? The tent is very comfortable. "I'm confused, these days, I haven't heard of anyone thinking that their house is too big.

"How can I live in such a big tent for an old woman?"

Akara smiled and shook his head: "Don't look at the stuff I have here, I think I need so many places to put things, in fact, the small tent used to be just suitable, but now it's so big, I have to buy some empty bottles and cans and put them on to fill up, lest the guests say that I don't have anything to buy in this empty feeling!" ”

I looked closely at the surrounding cupboards and found that many of the bottles were empty, and as for the jars, they were made of tiles, so that there was nothing to tell from the outside.

If it's really as Akara said, then those old men are really good at doing bad things, I'm all ashamed, I guess those magic maniacs also did it specially, how to say that Akara is also the leader of Rog's camp, if the house is too shabby, even if you don't care, others may have opinions, I remember that Lal said, research freaks, old naughty boys, love face, good to argue, this can almost summarize the behavior of those old guys in the magic union.

I suddenly remembered that the luxurious but unsightly, twisted-looking West Gate was probably also the work of these old guys, really, can't you put your energy on a more useful place?
