Chapter 19: Luty and Mary the Greataxe
After bidding farewell to Porpo, the group returned to the church to pack their packages and prepare for departure. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Hey, Captain Roque, what are you doing with a frying pan? Do you have to cook on the road? Milou asked curiously as she saw Roque's pan in his backpack.
"It's nothing, it's just that I'm used to carrying it, after all, it was the one who saved my life last time." Roque's words are half-true, the last time he fought the assassin, he did rely on a frying pan to block the fatal knife, but there was another reason to wear a gourmand costume this time......
……
Soon, everyone came to the pitch-black tunnel and entered the closed area again.
Unlike last time, this time everyone's strength has increased significantly, and the zombie ghosts in the closed area can no longer stop everyone's progress, and it is often Roque who burns a group of zombies with a lava blast, and Kurto and Milou don't even have to make a move.
"Sister Minter said she couldn't come because of something, but I doubt she couldn't come, just because she didn't want to come." Milou looked at the crazy second monster Roque and said to Kurto in a tone that I was sure of.
"I think so too, after all, the monsters here are really disgusting, and I don't even want to touch them." Rarely, Kurto agreed with Milou.
"What are you muttering there, don't hurry up and keep up!" Roque shouted ahead.
"Oh, right away!"
……
This time the progress went well, and it didn't take long for Roque and his party to find a way to the Third Quarry.
However, as he passed the underground staircase, Roque noticed that the closer he got to the Third Quarry, the stronger the monster's aura became.
"Looks like you're going to have to fight the monsters here before you fight those two bandits......" Roque stopped abruptly and pulled one out of his backpack...... Magic wand.
Milou and Kurto: "Hey, is Captain Roque going to transform?" ”
Roque: "Change your sister!" I'm just changing my outfit! ”
Under the watchful eye of Milou and Kurto, Roque uses consumables to change his magic wand in the labyrinth for the first time.
To be honest, changing clothes in front of two big living people in such an underground mine, even if Roque is very thick-skinned, he feels very painful, if it weren't for the dark curtain that obscures his vision, he wouldn't have changed his clothes in front of his teammates if he killed Roque.
So, Roque took off his magician's costume and changed into a familiar gourmand man.
“…… Uncle Roque, you don't really plan to have a gastronomic feast here, do you? I don't mind, but it always feels weird. Kurto saw Roque pick up the pan again, and the spirit of the spit began to awaken.
“…… Do you only have food on your mind? Don't forget that being a foodie is also a fighting class, and that being a foodie can play a bigger role than you might think. Roque thought to himself, wait for your kid to take a good look at the strength of the gourmet, be careful not to be scared to pee.
It's not for nothing that Roque chose to change into a gourmand outfit, due to Minter's departure, the team is missing a support staff, and the gourmand has a skill called "lamb to the slaughter", doesn't it seem strange to hear the name? The effect of the skill is even more bizarre, which can make the target enemy have a certain chance to be converted into food. Monsters only. Yes, you heard it right, from the mighty magic dragon to the ordinary chicken, all of them are meat on the cutting board in front of a gourmet, and a skill is likely to turn into a dish in the past, or the kind without seasoning.
And this skill can be used in battle, but the success rate of the skill will be reduced a lot, but it still can't stop those fanatical gourmets, it is said that hundreds of years ago, there was a ninth-order gourmet in order to make a delicacy to fight the flame demon dragon alone, and used the "lamb to the slaughter" in the fierce battle, and successfully turned the powerful demon dragon into a pile of meat...... It was a good story for a while.
What the? You say this skill isn't a support skill? Don't forget the foodie's specialty, as long as there are ingredients, make delicious dishes for you to eat in minutes, what poisoning, weakness, freezing, paralysis, as long as you eat the dishes I make, these are not a problem! As for restoring stamina and mana, that's all incidental.
"Alright, don't be stunned, hurry up, if I'm right, I'll be at the third quarry soon." Roque urged.
Soon the crowd arrived at the Third Quarry.
The environment here is different from the first and second quarries, and it doesn't seem that many people are digging here. Come to think of it, the people who can enter here at least have the strength of the first-order peak, and they must also be a legal profession, otherwise they will not be able to get through the closed area at all, and as a noble master, will they have the leisure time to come here to mine? It's incredible to think about. That's why only people like Roque who have a clear goal come here.
Roque looked around, but didn't notice the two robbers.
Looks like they'll only show up when we find the lens, I'm really speechless, I'll be careful not to be attacked by them...... Roque thought to himself.
"And then? Is this time also looking for a place to dig casually? Mi Lu's face was a little unnatural, after all, that bloody experience was still vivid, and Mi Lu could not forget it until now.
"No, this time we just need to find the lair of a monster called the Slime Slime. Because...... The lens is formed by the secretion of this monster. ”
"Points...... Secretion? Milu's mind conjured up a soft slime slowly spitting out an unknown liquid and condensing a crystal, and the expression on his face was wonderful.
"Surprised? The world is so magical, those monsters that we hate, can give birth to the treasures we covet, and we humans are also food in their eyes, which has to be said to be ironic. Roque sighed a little, perhaps it was the professional instinct of a gourmet, and he had an unimaginable obsession with the word food.
"That'...... How to find this slime? Digging holes everywhere? "Kurto seems to understand this as something like picking up birds' eggs, and from this point of view, the essence of Kurto is the same as Roque's, except that one can only eat and the other can cook.
"It's very simple, if you look at the marks on the ground, if there are white lines, they are the marks left by the slime slime walking by, and according to these lines, we can follow the vine to find their nest."
"It is worthy of being a former head of the regiment, knowledge is abundant, and he is willing to bow down."
"Read more books, grow your brain, it's useless to have muscles alone."
“……”
"Captain Roque! I found it! That's the trail left by that slime slime, right? On the other side, Milou exclaimed excitedly.
Roque walked over to take a look and found that it was indeed a slime slime, and couldn't help but praise Milu, the girl was careful and found it so quickly.
The rest of the matter is simple, Roque follows the trail to a rock, and then has Kurto use the stunt Rock Crushing Palm to directly shatter the rock, revealing the slimes inside whose home has been destroyed and shivering.
Underneath the slime's body, there is a crystal that reveals a dreamy color, which is the goal of Roque's trip, the lens.
I don't know why Roque has a sense of guilt, just like the strange uncle who robbed the little Lolita lollipop, you must know that this lens may have taken a long time for the slime to condense, and he directly destroyed their homes as soon as he came, not to mention, the lens was also snatched away, what is the difference between this and a robber?
Perhaps in the eyes of the monsters, humans are robbers who destroy their homes and rob them of their important treasures.
Just when Roque fell into philosophical thoughts, a woman's voice sounded very suddenly: "Oh, I didn't expect you little children to really have some ability, the treasure that Mary and I spent several days not finding, you found it as soon as you came, it's really very - thank you - thank you......"
Ludy...... After all, they found it, and we ...... It's not a good thing to do. This second voice was a little helpless.
"Fart! Treasures are only possessed by the strong! If they get the treasure, I dare not get out of the dark tunnel! It's only right to leave it to us! ”
That's right, this robber's logical woman is the one who has a deep grudge against Roque - Ludy? Katelet, and the slightly more normal one is Mary? Angelt, known to players as the "robber duo", specializes in robbing the treasures found by the protagonist.
"Okay, little boys, obediently hand over that shiny thing to me~ Otherwise, the big sister will be angry~" Ludy said with a smile, but the words were really not flattering.
"Well, it's like this again...... I really can't help you, you'd better listen to her, otherwise I won't be able to stop her as soon as she gets angry......" Mary covered her forehead helplessly, it seemed that this was not the first time this kind of thing had happened.
"Who the hell is you old woman, why should we give you the treasure we have worked so hard to find, and tell you that there is no door!" As soon as Kurto opened his mouth, it was a textbook mockery, and he could see that the smiling Ludy's face turned black in an instant.
"Old-woman-human? You're a little virgin who hasn't developed IQ or EQ (right) and says I'm an old woman? ”
"That's you! You shameless robber (right)! The bra is sagging, and he is embarrassed to come out to rob, and he doesn't see how old he is. ”
"......" is full of anger
"Bastard!! I, Rudy, want to show you a little kid what cruelty is! Mary! Let's go! ”
"Hey, what's going on?" Milu with a question mark on her face.
"Good to die and not to die, said Ludy's forbidden words...... There's no way I'll be a little lighter. Mary sighed and pulled out a great axe worthy of her height.
Roque: It's finally time for this...... Labor and management have been waiting for you two for a long time!
The shivering Slime Family: "?????????? ”
