Chapter 191: The Night Gave Me Black Eyes
At noon that day, the various restaurants on the first floor of the Water Labyrinth suddenly found that their business was much less than usual, and they held their breath and couldn't understand it, until they stumbled upon two adventurers walking out of the entrance of the second floor, and the two adventurers were greasy and satisfied, as if they had made a fortune by accident on the second floor.
But when the restaurant owner looked down, he didn't notice that they were carrying buckets or other fish props.
Immediately afterward, more and more adventurers walked out of the entrance to the second level with a satisfied face, some of them carrying buckets and fishing rods, but the buckets were clearly empty.
"They didn't catch a rare fish, what are they smirking at?"
A certain boss was in the mood and hurriedly asked.
But before he could ask, an adventurer who obviously knew him laughed and said, "Boss, I won't eat at your place at noon today." Woo, that thing called hot pot is so refreshing! It's a pity that today has passed, and I don't know when I will be able to eat it in the future! β
"Hot pot?" The boss keenly picked out the key word from the long sentence, smiled at the adventurer, and turned back to the shop.
Although he didn't know what "hot pot" was, he immediately understood when he heard the adventurer say thisβit seemed that there was a peer on the second floor who was stealing business!
But that business doesn't seem to be long-lasting......
Despite this, he still had an idea, and immediately called a clerk who could fight and led him to the second floor, he wanted to find out the information.
Then, he and his clerk completely fell into the abyss of hot pot and could never get up again.
β¦β¦
The list goes on and on, and more and more adventurers move from the first, second, and third floors to the entrance of the third floor, and then pay magic tickets and blend into the hot pot army.
"Speaking of which, aren't we here to take risks?" Lisa complained while skillfully washing vegetables and dishes.
"No, we're here for a tour!" Alice replied to her in a serious manner, and then turned to deliver the food......
Next to the two girls, Qin Ying was also helping, and Obi was desperately showing off his knife skills, because there were too many people who came to eat hot pot, and he had to speed up the speed of cutting vegetables and meat.
And Rowan ......
Rowan is a boss after all, how can he let the greasy stain his precious hands?
He's collecting money......
"We came to the labyrinth for a tour, so why did we open a restaurant in the end? In any case, the first adventurers shouldn't be involved! β
With a bitter face, he skillfully combined small amounts of magic tickets into large ones.
In this case, it is inevitable that a few adventurers will be eyeing the money in his hand, but the black-skinned five-person group is still tied up and snorting, so that those bad adventurers dare not do it.
β¦β¦
This hot pot conference lasted for a long, long time, until Rowan's huge ingredients were all exhausted, and the adventurers were still unsatisfied.
And the first day of Luo Wen's adventure with Rowan and others was also in vain!
What's even more regrettable is that the accident that John and Sister Shui have been vigilant about did not happen, which disappointed Rowan.
After putting away the dishes, Rowan handed over the black-skinned five-person group to John and Sister Shui to deal with, after all, they were professionals.
Rowan himself took the adventure members of the Mist Forest into the third layer of the Water Labyrinth, walked around the entrance of the third layer twice, and then returned home and left the Water Labyrinth.
After John and Sister Shui dealt with those adventurers, they had to continue to collect "water dragon flowers" in the maze to complete the task, and after that, they had some other things to deal with in the maze, so Rowan and the others took the lead.
When I walked out of the labyrinth, it was getting late, and the beautiful dusk came as scheduled, and the large lake above the maze glowed orange-red in the light of dusk.
Some of the adventurers who had escaped from the labyrinth pitched their tents by the lake, lit bonfires, and sat around chatting with each other.
There are also some adventurers who love to fish in the lake.
Rowan looked back and sighed, "Is this the life of an adventurer?" β
Alice noticed him and casually asked, "What?" Do you like it? β
Rowan shook his head: "I may be able to live this life for a day or two, but if I keep living it, I will definitely get bored." Moreover, there is simply too little entertainment for them. β
Alice wondered, "Entertainment? β
Rowan said, "Yes, entertainment. I have an idea. β
When it comes to entertainment activities, in addition to comics, movies and other things, the most simple and simple entertainment should naturally be chess and card entertainment.
Fernandi has casinos, the largest of which is called "The City That Never Sleeps", and Rowan was impressed.
He'd heard a few from his guests, and knew that there were dice, playing cards, and all sorts of otherworldly entertainment.
But here...... No mahjong!
At this moment, Rowan thought about a question very seriously, did he want to move this quintessence to the other world?
β¦β¦
At the end of the journey, they lost the pleasure of walking home, so they called a wide carriage, and a group of people sat in one car, carrying the dusk on their backs, and quickly drove to the east city.
β¦β¦
On the carriage, Lisa, Alyssa, and Qin Ying snuggled up to each other, and fell asleep unconsciously.
Obi lifted the window and looked at the water maze that was getting farther and farther away, and there was a faint sadness in his heart.
Lu Yuan patted him on the shoulder and asked, "What?" Reminiscing about the days of adventure? β
Obi shook his head: "The past is gone. I'm just wondering when I'll be able to venture again...... Well, go on a tour. β
Hearing him say this, Rowan suddenly smiled and said: "Don't be so sentimental, there will always be a chance, maybe soon." β
Obi still shook his head: "If you can, it's enough to go once a month or two." Today in the labyrinth I realized that my job is still a chef, not the adventurer John. β
"Poof!" Rowan couldn't help but laugh and said, "Don't let John see your adventure name." β
Obi showed a rare sly smile: "It's okay, when the time comes. When it is dewed, he will get some potatoes for him to eat. β
John is the "Son of the Potato"!
β¦β¦
Time passed, and after they returned to Fernandi, they went directly to the distribution of the Adventure Alliance, and then handed in the task, so that the "Forest of Mist" officially became a G-level adventure guild!
"From now on, we're all staffed people."
Rowan smiled, got into the carriage again, and drove in the direction of East Street.
They went to Lisa's house first, put Alice and Lisa down together, and then drove into the tavern, stopping the car at the tavern's door.
After saying goodbye to each other, Rowan and Qin Ying opened the door and entered the tavern, while Lu Yuan and Obi went into the alley and went back to their own home.
After entering the tavern, Rowan looked at the empty kitchen and felt worried.
"Why didn't you think that when you set off, you would have to put all these kitchen utensils back when you came back?"
With a full of exhaustion, he and Qin Ying worked together to put all the kitchen utensils back in the kitchen, and then bathed the demon pets, and the two of them also finished washing one after another, and then returned to the small courtyard of the misty world.
Enjoying the refreshing afterglow of the freshness of the shower, Rowan pulled out the chaise longue and lay down on the chair, pressed all his weight on the chair, and completely relaxed for a while.
After a while, he sighed and said, "In a blink of an eye, it's already June 23!" It's past twelve o'clock. Actually, I originally wanted to spend the night in the water labyrinth......"
Qin Ying sat next to him and was gently opening the book: "The plan can't keep up with the changes, who would have thought that so many ingredients we prepared could be eaten?" β
Rowan burst into tears: "I don't want to open a hot pot restaurant in the labyrinth!" β
Qin Ying pondered for a while, but suddenly proposed, "Why don't we really open a hot pot restaurant?" β
Rowan nodded: "That's a good idea. It can be handed over to Barr! β
"It's Baal again!" Qin Ying covered her mouth and chuckled, "Barr is already so busy, do you want to add a burden to him?" β
Rowan said with great confidence: "Don't worry, he will definitely accept it painfully and happily!" β
Qin Ying nodded and said, "Actually, I think so too. I always feel that if this continues, maybe in a year or two, Barr will become a big name in the Fernandi food industry! β
Rowan smiled: "Isn't that pretty good?" Mutual benefit and win-win, beautiful and ruthless! β
β¦β¦
Chatting and chatting, Qin Ying gradually focused on the books, and Rowan also stared at the stars in the sky, his thoughts drifting farther and farther.
Suddenly, a thrill in his brain trembled, and he found himself lying on a chair asleep!
He pretended to straighten up his upper body as if nothing had happened, quietly looked to the side, and found that Qin Ying was still reading seriously, and couldn't help but feel a little ashamed, so he also asked the electronic elf to take out the "Basic Magic Theory".
But after getting the thick magic textbook in his hands, he finally remembered that he had forgotten to summon it!
"After a day of playing in the water maze, I always felt that my brain had become dull......"
Rowan shook his head, took out the rune deck, and then reminded Qin Ying that he was going to start summoning, lest the thunder would jump her down.
Qin Ying put the bookmark away, closed the book temporarily, and looked up at Luo Wen: "I don't know what interesting things can be summoned today?" β
Rowan casually asked, "What do you want?" β
Qin Ying tilted her head and thought for a while: "A robot that can automatically check out? β
Luo Wen sneered: "No, I'm so lazy, if you are lazy, then how will our tavern continue?" β
A gentle smile appeared at the corner of Qin Ying's mouth: "But I also want to take the time to write, I have some interest in writing adventure stories." β
Rowan squinted his eyes and said: "You wait, I will definitely write a best-selling book that people will chase and urge!" β
Qin Ying said, "We'll see." β
Then, the charm and brilliance of the miracle of time shone in the night sky, as if the black vortex that went straight into the abyss suddenly took shape, and a loud "boom" sounded in the void, and an owl flew out of the black vortex!
Looking at the owl in the aperture, Rowan couldn't help but fall into memory.
He had only seen an owl once in his life, when he was in his hometown in the countryside, when an owl flew down from the mountains, strayed into his family's earthen house, and then ...... And then I didn't catch it.
Although he still had to be released after being caught, he did feel very disappointed when he was still a child at that time.
And now the owl summoned from the miracle of time is obviously the one he remembers.
This owl is not very big, and its feathers are mixed with black, brown, and white, which is not pretty, but it is very spiritual.
The moment it fished out the aperture, Rowan suddenly felt that his eyes went black, and then then they lit up again, and his own face appeared in his mind!
He was already familiar with this situation, so he was not surprised - it was a second sight!
Patting his head, Rowan woke himself up from his momentary dizziness before trying to close this second vision.
As a result, he only thought about it in his heart, and then closed this second vision.
"How?" Qin Ying said with concern.
Rowan rubbed his head and said, "The night has given me black eyes, and I can see everything it sees through the eyes of this owl. β
Qin Ying's heart moved: "Second vision? β
Rowan nodded: "With this owl, I will be able to explore this misty forest faster." β
With that, he lifted the owl up and threw it upward, and the owl spread its wings and flew into the night sky!
Although the owl is cute, don't forget that it is a type of bird of prey!
Rowan closes his eyes and communicates with it, and the second vision automatically opens, overlooking the earth from the sky!
The owl could receive his thoughts, but it couldn't speak, and all it could convey was a "coo-coo" call, which made Rowan a little helpless.
"Go ahead, fly straight east and return in an hour, but be safe."
Giving the order to the owl, Rowan lay down on the recliner, then summoned the slime and asked him to record the high-altitude scene that came to his mind and show it!
Suddenly, the misty forest under the dark night appeared in the virtual screen!
Doudou, Chopper, Cyber Elf, and Qin Ying gathered in front of the virtual screen, enjoying this rare night scene with a terrifying atmosphere.
The owl's speed was not bad, and it flew through the sky and quickly flew out of the range of Rowan's walking map.
Rowan kept an eye on the walking map and found that as the owl continued to fly, the walking map was expanding at a high speed!
This extended map area is the same as that extended by the black collar, within a radius of five meters.
It's a pity that it's all in the sky!
As the owl continued to fly, more and more unknowns fell into Rowan's eyes, and more and more terrain was recorded.
These records are eventually compiled into a new map by the slimes, which will be useful for the rest of the forest exploration.
After this labyrinth adventure, Rowan felt that it was time to speed up his exploration of the Misty Forest.
An hour passed in the blink of an eye, and the owl began to return.
On his way back, Rowan suddenly spotted a lake and told it to stop and wander high in the sky. 21010
