Chapter 9: Living Treasure
"In the strict sense of the word, Gustavo is not like a patriarch, but like a bandit, yes, a tough bandit." ββExcerpt from the legendary scholar Xia Mu's "I have a lot of friends, pay attention to your words"
------------------
For a while, the dust was flying, and the battle of the other four people was also forced to stop.
Gustavo's burly body stood in the middle of the field, like a silver-domed iron tower. The dust cleared, revealing a resolute tower body and fierce silver curly hair, coupled with the vulgar but majestic line, which was quite a bit of a tyrant.
Amacer's longsword bent in an incredible arc, and the tip and hilt of the sword were in close contact, and it might be more accurate to say that it was about to be broken.
"Patriarch Gustavo, what do you mean by that?" Tina asked, silently unleashing a magic flare.
The signal flare, which faintly emitted fluctuations, hid its figure with the help of magic and flew into the air, and even Mu Yan didn't notice it.
"Expose the corpse in the wild, kill people and kill people."
After saying that, Gustavo popped out a booger and shot down the flare accurately, and at the same time grinned, revealing white and neat teeth, with a face full of meat, enough to stop the crying of the child at night.
"What's the matter, if you can't beat it, you're ready to call an adult?"
"That...... Don't say that, what you just said is also a bit short. Mu Yan said with some embarrassment.
", I don't even know you, why do you protect yourself?" Gustavo said justifiably.
Mu Yan looked at his eyes carefully and confirmed that this guy was indeed talking nonsense with his eyes open, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems that the previous wave of favorability has not been brushed in vain.
"Well, we don't know each other at all, you are pulling out a knife to help you when you see injustice."
So he simply opened his eyes and said nonsense.
"That's right!" Gustavo had a "you kid know each other" expression. "The people who come to Imotru are all guests, and it's not right for them to rush into my guests."
"Hmm...... It makes sense. β
Ignoring the harmony between the two, Amacer picked up the long sword that had been bent one hundred and eighty degrees and slowly walked back to Tina.
Seeing this, Mu Yan couldn't help but stop him: "Hey, did you stab the sword crookedly just now?" Why don't you take the opportunity to kill me? β
Amacer frowned, and asked with a cold face: "Reason? β
"Isn't that easy? Like what...... Look at me unpleasant? β
"Childish."
Hearing this answer, Mu Yan suddenly felt relieved. He was almost certain that this man was that Amather, right. But looking at the other party's desperate look at Tina, the fire of gossip that he had cultivated by Wynne quickly burned.
"So Master Gustavo really plans to kill people for such a trivial matter?" Tina asked again.
Before the other party could answer, a white light flashed, and a figure that made Gustavo annoying came with a teasing.
"Of course, the patriarch is just trying to trick you."
This silver-haired young elf has a handsome face and an extraordinary temperament, as a mage of the Seven Rings (level 70), he is also a famous poet and orator in Silvermoon City, and he is also Mu Yan's main target when he brushes up on the prestige of the elves.
So when he saw him, Mu Yan's heart was also excited. In the game, he brushed the other party's prestige to his best friend, and even invited him to his wedding with Michua, and only invited him as a human.
This made Sulia, who had been watching him carefully, suddenly frown.
Why did the appearance of this elf make Xia Mu so excited? It's like the guys in the mercenary group used to see the gypsy girl dancing, their eyes glowing, and their Adam's apple stirs involuntarily. I heard that elves have always chased spiritual love, even regardless of gender...... Could it be ......
Her gaze swept between the two of them.
Seeing that his little trick was seen through by Artes, Gustavo waved his hand rather disappointedly.
"Take your people back, these days a little more restrained, my people are not as weak as him when they move."
Of course, this "he" refers to Mu Yan.
"That's nature." Artes nodded, and then prepared to take the three of them away.
"Lord Artes, it's clear that they were the first-"
"Tina." The elf gave her a non-oblivious look, then turned away.
Tina glared at Mu Yan angrily, and then hurried up with Amatsu and Lucy.
"Why did you deflect that sword just now?"
"We are noble elves......"
"You're hopeless!"
As the three of them drifted apart, such a conversation floated into Mu Yan's ears, and he couldn't help but become more and more curious about the relationship between the two.
For now, the likelihood of a master and servant is higher than that of a couple. Tsk,My sister and my sister's future boyfriend are a master-servant relationship.,This complex triangular relationship in the Shura field.,It's probably a royal plot in the second dimension.γ
"Are you alright?" Seeing the elves leaving, Surya hurried over. "I was restrained by Tina just now, and I didn't have time to take care of you, so I wasn't hurt, right?"
Although he felt that the girl's eyes were a little strange, he still attributed it to his concern for himself, and hurriedly relieved that it was okay.
"Hey, I've been watching from the side for a long time, why are you kid so unbeaten? It's surprisingly fast to cast spells, but why are you always in a daze, what are you hesitating about? In other words, I had enough time to kill him. Gustavo commented on him: "And why are you always trying to distance yourself?" You're a mage and you're not a shooter, so there's a for you to get a distance? β
Mu Yan was stunned for a while, feeling that what he said was very helpful, so he took out his notebook and wrote it down silently.
"Eh, what are you doing?" Gustavo's big head leaned over, and when he saw Mu Yan struggling to write, he hurriedly snatched his pen.
"I can't write it, I'm all a wild man, let others see the joke."
Wild fart! How can you not write down the teachings of Gustavo, the future "King of the Valley and the Jungle, Lord of the Grey Valley, Sage of the Forest, Listener of the Winds, Great Druid, Possessor of the Firmament of the Winds, Guardian of Imotru", or about combat techniques? Your word will be the bible for druid players in the future, though I don't know if they will be able to accept your special fetish of "exercising" with bears......
"I lack combat experience, so I have to write it down." Mu Yan snapped his fingers, and the pen automatically flew back, and then he worked hard to write again.
"Your Wizard's Hand isn't delayed?"
Gustavo asked in a daze, letting the quill fly back.
"Even if you have a 'wandless spell', you can't do this, could it be that you are still a warlock of the Alien Fire Cult?"
The Warlocks he refers to are a cult formed by Mora at the behest of Garden, who trade faith for great power, a group of madmen who shout "burn everything" to unleash an overwhelming amount of blazing flames, and are jokingly called the Lokan Single Dog Association by players.
"It's talent, you can't learn it." Mu Yan pretended to be mysterious.
"No wonder your 'spider web' was thrown so fast......" he muttered quietly.
Suria and Thorin watched from the sidelines, and although the two heard Gustavo's identity, they didn't know how Mu Yan knew him.
Mu Yan saw the doubts of the two.
"I'll introduce you to Thorin, my dwarven bodyguard."
"Hello little one, I often go to Eagle's Nest Mountain." Gustavo crouched down and held out his hand in a friendly manner, but the dwarf let out two breaths from his nose and ignored him.
The scene was very awkward at one point. Mu Yan slapped his forehead, why did he forget that this guy can't speak at all now? So he introduced Surya instead.
"This is Suria Edwards, the genius swordswoman of the Morning Star." Seeing that the girl glared at him dissatisfied, he hurriedly added: "At the same time, he is also my most trusted partner. β
Gustavo didn't speak blindly this time, he stared at the girl carefully for a long time, and then said curiously: "Forty years ago, a guy named Rhein came to me to fight, and his strength is not bad, are you him?" β
"It's my grandfather." Surya replied politely.
Gustavo's eyes lit up, and he laughed and said: "After it turned out to be an old man, I heard that he pretended to be too forced and let people beat him later, how about it, didn't he die?" β
"You-"
Seeing that the girl was about to run wild, Mu Yan hurriedly stepped forward to appease.
He regretted ten thousand times in his heart, why didn't this guy open any pot?
After a brief moment of astonishment, the patriarch seemed to realize that he had said the wrong thing, and wanted to make amends, he looked at the sky and sighed, then patted Surya on the shoulder, and said in a deep voice:
"Actually...... The meaning of life is not about the length of life, and those who pass away will become stars in the skyβ"
"Grandfather, he's still alive." Surya interrupted him coldly.
"Uh, that's good, that's good......" Gustavo wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and shut his mouth shut.
β¦β¦
After a brief hiccup, the trio was led by a silent patriarch to Imotru. The rows of druid buildings are densely packed together, leaving Surya speechless.
Especially at this time, when the sun is setting, standing at this end of the sinkhole, watching the afterglow of the setting sun sprinkle on the horizon at the other end of the sinkhole, turning into druids who go out with all kinds of birds flapping their wings and passing by, like returning milk swallows. Before the night engulfs the world, everything is full of hazy beauty.
"Beautiful, every time I think, this place is only where we can live, every year there is a flood, Imotru will become Lake Imotru, and the house will have to be rebuilt after the flood recedes."
The patriarch who endured all the way finally spoke again, but fortunately what he said this time was not so shocking.
"How did you meet?" Sullia finally asked the question.
"You say me and him?" Mu Yan thought about it. "Migratory birds have the custom of flying south for the winter, did you know? Before I joined Fireside Chat, I lived in the Salin region on the southeast coast of Turing, where the climate is warm and spring-like, typical of temperate oceanic climates......"
The girl nodded. "But what does that have to do with him?"
Mu Yan gave Gustavo a look and motioned for the other party to continue making it up, and the two of them lied together to be more credible.
"Uh...... I had a pigeon and flew south every winter to spend the winter, and one day it came back with a letter strapped to its foot. The patriarch looked at Mu Yan and signaled that it was his turn.
Although he felt that the story was made up by him, Mu Yan was recognized by the system as a "liar", so he easily rounded the story back.
ββ¦β¦ So the scholar who was eager to learn magic met an unknown pen pal, which is why I insisted on coming to Imotru, both to meet him and to fulfill my desire to learn magic. β
After telling the story, Mu Yan felt that he had been healed. Gustavo's eyes widened even more, for the first time he felt that there was someone in this world who could be more than him.
Surya nodded thoughtfully.
"What about the pigeons?"
"Eat." The two replied in unison.
(Sneak a plus, thank you for the support and silent encouragement of the students who "moved the book"...... Well deserved! οΌ
