Chapter 498: The Tavern and the Guests

"Boss, have you had any special customers in your store lately?"

After completing the mission, the Tavernkeep and the three adventurers returned to the tavern, and the three adventurers took the opportunity to ask the tavernmaster for information about the guests.

However, after hearing the girls' inquiry, the tavern owner couldn't help but be angry!

"Guest?" The tavern owner pointed to his empty shop and said angrily, "Do you think I look like I have a customer?" Because this batch of drinks was a whole month late, the drinks in the store had been out of drink for a long time. What kind of bar is a bar without alcohol? ”

The tavern owner couldn't help but complain as he spoke.

Natalie: "There's no way around it. Nowadays, a large number of monsters have appeared in many places, which has seriously affected the trade routes in various regions. Now merchants are afraid to go out without hiring a team of guards. ”

"Are we the only customers in the store? Didn't any other outsiders come to stay at the hotel? The blonde *** girl sitting next to Natalie suddenly interjected. Although the blonde girl once again wrapped herself in a thick fireproof cloak, her "recognizable" breasts were enough to make people understand her identity.

"That's not all." The tavernkeeper chuckled, "This is the Flame Throne. No matter how dangerous it is, there will be no shortage of dwarves who come on pilgrimage and warriors who come in search of weapons and equipment. ”

"Have you had any special customers in the store lately?" The girl asked.

The tavern keeper looked at the three adventurers in front of him suspiciously: "What are you asking about this?" ”

"Just asking. After all, we are also from other places, and I want to know what friends are in the hotel, so that I can easily get to know them when the time comes. The *** girl explained.

The tavern owner thought for a moment, "There were indeed a few customers in the store before, but if you want to ask something special...... There is a sword seeker in the city who is said to have legendary strength, I wonder if this is special? ”

"Legend!?"

The three girls had surprised looks on their faces.

"Yes." The tavernkeeper stood behind the bar with a smile on his face, "Do you want a glass of lava spirits?" ”

"Lava spirits?" Lori, a halfling on the side, couldn't help but interject, "Didn't you say before that you didn't have any wine?" ”

"Didn't you just send a batch of wine?" The tavernkeeper wondered.

"Those spirits with ordinary knowledge." Halfling Lori spoke, "Lava Liquor is a specialty of the Flame Throne, right?" ”

Hearing the words of the halfling Lori, a smile broke into the corner of the tavernkeeper's mouth: "Hey, hey, hey! Trade Secrets. ”

"What is Lava Spirit?" Natalie couldn't help but ask curiously.

"A special spirit made by the dwarves, said to have a lava-like color and a fire-like spiciness, and when drunk, you can gain a short period of flame resistance, which can make people withstand the heat of magma for a short time!" Lori the halfling paused, "I saw some relevant descriptions in "Charlie the Adventurer", but I always thought it was just a legend. Because if the Dwarven Lava Spirits really give people fire resistance, then why aren't they sold in the various labyrinth cities? You know, fire resistance potions have always been in demand to deal with some of the most hostile environments in the labyrinth, but I've never heard of anyone using lava spirits! ”

Hearing the words of the halfling Lori, Natalie couldn't help but look at the dwarf boss curiously: "Boss, do you really have lava spirits here?" ”

"Hey, hey! This little girl knows a lot. The tavernkeeper glanced at the little Lori wrapped in a fireproof cloak, "Yes, lava spirits do have some peculiar effects on ordinary people. The reason why the merchants didn't ship it elsewhere is simple: lava spirits can only exist here! ”

"Only here can it exist?" Natalie blinked, "You mean to say that lava spirits are like labyrinth items that disappear once they leave a particular area?" ”

"Almost." The tavernkeeper smiled, "Leave here, and lava spirits will soon turn into ordinary liquor. What do you think? Would you like a drink? ”

"Sounds like a lot of fun." Natalie's eyes lit up, "Give me a drink!" ”

"Okay!"

The tavernkeeper smiled and took out a metal container that looked like a water glass, poured a glass of spirits from a barrel behind him, then closed the lid of the container and shook it vigorously, then poured the shaken wine into a metal wine glass and placed it in front of Natalie.

Tavernkeep: "Your lava spirits!" ”

In the metal wine glass, small bubbles are constantly bubbling in the red wine, which looks like lava.

Lori, a halfling on the side, craned her neck and looked at the red liquor in front of Natalie: "This is lava spirits?" This seems dangerous, but you won't be able to drink it, right? ”

The tavern owner grinned, "It's just a glass of wine, and if you drink it, you'll get drunk at best." ”

"The drink seems a little scary. Natalie, do you want to drink? The *** girl on the side spoke.

Natalie hesitated for a moment, then gritted her silver teeth, picked up the wine cup in front of her, squinted her eyes, and took a careful sip.

"Hmm! ~Ha! Yes! The girl had a long mouth and kept puffing out, and a red fire could be faintly seen spewing out of the girl's mouth.

"Hey, hey, hey~ how's that? Delicious, right? The tavern owner on the side laughed.

"Wow!" Natalie took a deep breath and pursed her lips, "It tastes amazing. At first, it felt like swallowing fire, and there was a hot feeling, but after entering the abdomen, there was a hot breath, and the whole person felt comfortable and energetic. ”

"Is it really that good?" Lori, the halfling next to her, also seemed to have some interest in it, "Give me a taste." ”

"Give."

Lori, a halfling, took the wine cup handed over by Natalie, took off the face towel on her face, picked up the wine cup, and took a sip gently.

"Hmm......" The face of the halfling Lori showed a bitter gourd face, but soon, the brows relaxed.

"How does it taste?" The *** girl on the side hurriedly asked.

"Ha ......" the halfling Lori exhaled, "It's so hot!" ”

Lori, a halfling, raised her head and squinted her eyes for a moment.

"Huh?" Lori, a halfling, suddenly reached out and pulled down her hood, revealing her slightly messy silver hair, "After taking a sip, it doesn't seem to be so hot." ”

The girl blinked: "In other words, this can really be used as a fire prevention agent?" ”

"Well, it seems like yes." The silver-haired Lori nodded, and handed the wine cup in her hand to the *** girl, "Anna, you can take a sip too." ”

The girl Anna hurriedly took the wine cup handed over by the silver-haired Lori, took off the face towel, and took a sip.

The hot feeling in the mouth is like magma exploding! A blazing heat rose from the internal organs and flowed to the limbs, making a hint of ruddy appear on the girl's face. Heat, a kind of heat gushing out from the inside of her body, and soon, the girl felt that the originally hot air around her seemed to become cooler.

"Great!" Anna pulled down her hood and shook her head, revealing her brilliant blonde hair, "Much more comfortable." ”

"By the way, boss, how much does such a glass of lava spirits cost?" Silver-haired Lori asked.

Tavernkeeper: "Two pounds of silver." ”

"The price is reasonable." Silver-haired Lori took out six silver coins and placed them on the table, "Give us two more glasses." ”

The dwarf picked up the silver coin on the table, weighed it, sniffed it in front of his nose, and then licked it with his tongue: "Inferior silver coin with only 30% silver." You'll have to make up for me......" the dwarf gestured with his finger, "and fourteen more of these silver coins have to be made up." ”

"Huh?" Silver-haired Lori's eyes widened, "What's the matter with your prices?" ”

"You can also go to the town hall and exchange it for silver coins from our Reitla." The dwarf put the silver coins on the table and looked at the three adventurers in front of him calmly, "Our Retra's silver coins are not the same as your humans' inferior silver coins. ”

The land around the Throne of Fire is barren and scorching, making it impossible for even the most common bottom mushrooms to grow underground, but it is extremely rich in mineral resources. The dwarves were able to extract various minerals from lava when necessary, so the dwarves had very high coin quality and fineness.

After hearing the dwarf boss's words, the silver-haired girl frowned slightly: "In other words, a glass of lava spirits costs six and a half Palomian silver coins?" It's a little bit expensive......"

The tavern owner smiled: "Do you still want it?" ”

The three girls looked at each other.

"Although we have plenty of funds, we should save a little if we can save it." Anna, a blonde girl, cautiously suggested.

"Give me a drink." The silver-haired Lori spoke, then turned to Anna on the side and said, "Anna, do you want to wear that thick cloak all the time?" ”

"Hmm...... Actually, it's okay. It's a little uncomfortable to wrap in a cloak, but ......," the girl hesitated for a moment, "Okay, bring me a drink too." I don't really like the taste, but it's a bad feeling. ”

The three teenage adventurers ordered a lava spirit, took off their thick fireproof cloaks, and sat down at the bar to chat with the tavernkeeper.

"Tell me about the legend you just talked about." Natalie looked at the tavernkeeper, "You just said that there was a legend in the city, what happened?" ”

Perhaps because Natalie and the others bought drinks, the tavern owner very readily told the three of them the information in his hand: "There is a legend in the city who asks for a sword, and it is said that no sword can withstand his power. If you go to the square, you should still be able to see the traces left by him when he tried his sword. ”

Natalie and the others looked at each other.

"Do you know the identity of that legend?" Anna asked.

"He calls himself Enrig, the Demon Swordsman." The tavern keeper spread his hands out, "I've never heard of this name, but judging by his age, maybe it's only been a few years." After all, the magic has risen in recent years, and many things are different from before. ”

"Does that legend live in your shop?"

"Of course." The tavern owner smiled, "There are no other hotels in the city besides us." ”

The three girls exchanged a glance with each other.

After asking the innkeeper for information about the "mysterious legendary powerhouse", the three adventurers booked a room, and the woman took her luggage, returned to the room, and put her things down.

"Set up an enchantment." In the room, Natalie gestures to the silver-haired girl.

The silver-haired girl nodded, holding the magic book in one hand and the wand in the other, clubbing the wand in the room, using the wand as the medium center, and arranged a simple enchantment in the room.

"Okay, now we'll say okay, we won't be heard from the outside." The silver-haired mage nodded to Natalie.

No one touched it, and the wand stood on the floor in the middle of the room, the red crystal at the top glowing.

"That magic swordsman, Enrig...... Could it be the demon king that the woman said before? The blonde girl Anna couldn't help but speak, "Did the Demon King really run to the Flame Throne?" ”

"I don't know, but I think it's very likely." Natalie turned to look at the silver-haired girl on the side, "What do you think, Vister?" ”

Silver-haired girl Vister: "Natalie, can you be sure that there are demons in the hotel?" ”

"Yes." Natalie nodded, "I can sense the existence of demons within a certain range, and you know about it. ”

"We haven't seen that 'Demon Swordsman Enrig' either, everything is just speculation, maybe that 'Demon Swordsman Enrig' is not a demon but the goal of the demon race." The silver-haired girl said rationally, "I think we should go and investigate to determine if the two companions who were with the 'Demon Swordsman Enrig' are demons." If the companion of that 'Demon Swordsman Enrig' is a demon, then the identity of that 'Demon Swordsman Enrig' is probably a collaborator of the demon even if he is not a high-level of the demon race. ”

"I don't think it's necessary. We can report the matter directly to the city officials or the vigilantes, and leave the matter to the dwarves themselves. The blonde girl Anna suggested, "If that 'Demon Swordsman Enrig' is really the Demon King, it is too dangerous to continue the investigation." Anyway, the fact that there are demons in the tavern has already been determined, and the rest is left to the dwarves' security team. ”

Vister: "Actually, we only know that there are demons in the hotel, but we can't be sure which guest is the demons. Even if you want to report it to the dwarves, you should first identify the target, right? ”

"Hmm......" Anna fell silent.

"Then let's go and investigate!" Natalie stood up and clapped.
