Chapter 50: New Partners
After venting for a while, Mochi finally chose to stop. Akalin-Sednes is level 25, and Mochi's scratching attacks are largely ineffective against the undead thief.
"Ah, I turned into an undead as a result......" To Anvina's surprise, Akarin didn't show any difficulty accepting the fact of becoming an undead. Perhaps because he was too easily ignored by his compatriots, Akalin didn't struggle with his own race and faction.
On the other hand, he was sad that his hometown had become unrecognizable - "I didn't expect Dalaran to become like this......"
"What's next for Mr. Akarin?" Anvena asked.
"I don't know...... When I wake up, I find that everything around me is wrong. I don't know where to go now. To be honest, even if all the people I know are alive, they don't necessarily know me. Akalin replied honestly.
"Then why don't you go on a trip with us, Mr. Akarin! Mr. Murch is an experienced fish-man. Anvena extended an invitation to Akalin.
"Are you really inviting me?" Akalin was deeply moved, "Seriously, I haven't been invited in many years......
So Akalin-Sednes, the undead stalker in the Bloodfang suit, became Mochi and Anvina's companion.
Under the cover of night, the three men slipped out of the confines of the Dalaran Crater.
It's amazing to have a sneaky stalker around, and Anvena has to make sure every few steps: "Mr. Akalin, are you still there?" β
Before Akalin, who was standing three yards in front of Avena, could reply, Mochi hurriedly replied, "Don't worry! He's all around us. β
Naturally, Mochi couldn't see the exact location of Akalin, but he could see the artifact fragments in his package. After Akalin absorbs the energy of the artifact fragments, the fragments in Moqi's package will resonate with him, and by the frequency and intensity of the flash, Moqi can roughly judge the distance between Akarin and himself.
After leaving the confines of the crater, the first thing Mochi did was to take Akalin to the Dark Prowler he had seen during the day. Mochiben suffered from the difference in rank too much, and did not dare to attack this elite beast. But with Akalin on board, Mochi and Anvina were able to take out the elite beast with ease.
Although killing this elite did not result in a card pack, Mochi was happy to get a high-level thigh. Predictably, with the addition of high-level thieves, their leveling in the Hillsbrad Hills area will be very easy. At this moment, Moqi could be regarded as forgiving Akalin, and was no longer angry at the fact that he had absorbed the artifact fragments.
In order to establish a good relationship with Akalin, Mochi held a simple hot pot welcome party on a relatively secluded hillside. The main dishes of the hot pot are wild boar, soft wild fish, vegetable seedlings (dug from the vegetable fields near Ambermere), forest mushrooms, shallots, ...... Wait, in short, compared to the first time I ate hot pot with Anvina, this dinner party is really much richer.
"Do you fishmen usually eat such delicious things?" Akalin asked as he ate, he couldn't handle chopsticks as easily as Avena and Mochi, and had to use the fork and knife he carried with him instead, but even so, he still enjoyed eating.
After asking, Akalin found that no one was paying attention to him, and he couldn't help but sigh: "Hey...... Sure enough, it was ignored again, forget it, I'll concentrate on eating my stuff. β
"Strange, what about the fish I just soaked in?" Anvena fished in the pot for a long time, but she didn't see a shadow of the fish.
"It's really weird...... The vegetables I kept for myself were gone in a blink of an eye. Mochi also said strangely.
Akalin continued to eat without saying a word, pretending not to hear anything.
After eating and drinking, Mochi soon fell asleep. In his dream, he dreamed of a strange scene, he was sitting around with the other six people of the [Tannery Seven], and even more strangely, Anvina was also there. Everyone was eating hot pot in the hut in Winter Spring Valley and enjoying the snow scene, which was really a happy scene.
"Seems like a good omen." When he woke up, Mochi stretched his waist and said.
It was still dark, the sun had not yet risen, and Mochi looked at Anvina beside her, who had not yet woken up. As fishmen, they don't feel cold at night, but Avena is still used to wrapping herself in a cocoon with her cloak while she sleeps. Although some of the undead will continue their habit of closing their eyes after nightfall, they do not really need sleep.
Akalin sat not far from them, tinkering with something, as if before he fell asleep last night, Mochi had seen Akalin in the same shape.
"Maybe it's journaling...... I'm still not good. Let's decide on today's route. Mochi climbed to the top of the hill, and after planning the course of the day, the three of them headed towards the village of the Broken Fin Mud Fishman.
They arrived at the fish-man village in the southern part of the Hillsbrad Hills just before noon. Like other fish-man villages, the Broken Fin Mud Fish-Man village is pretty shabby - crooked stilted thatched huts, fish-man tadpoles running all over the ground, and bottles and jars collected from nowhere next to the huts.
"Is the mud scales there? We were introduced by the village chief of Porlu. While asking, Mochi also showed the ring in his hand to the fishman in front of him. As in the case on Dawn Island, the appearance of Mochi and Anvena attracts onlookers from the local fish-man villagers.
"What are you looking for gills for?" A tall, purple fish-man stepped forward.
"Hello, we were introduced by the village chief of Porphyll, and he is an old acquaintance with the gills." Anwena said very politely, and after saying that, she pointed to the ring on Moqi's hand, "You see we still have the token of the village chief. β
"The gills are dead." The tall fishman looked at Moqi and Anvena and said, "Besides, we don't know any Porphyry Village Chiefs. β
Hearing that the village chief's recommendation didn't work very well, Mo Qi could only go out in person: "Then you must have heard of 'the fish-man who accompanied the dawn', right?" β
"No, it sounds stupid. What is that? The tall purple fish-man replied dryly.
Mochi was stunned, and didn't know how to answer for a moment. It seems that not all fish-man villages have the legend of "fish-man who comes with the dawn".
"Let me tell you that. There is no surplus food to offer to outsiders in our village, and if you want to eat and drink together, I advise you to dispel this idea as soon as possible. The tall fish-man said unceremoniously.
Okay! was actually regarded as a liar fishman who wanted to cheat and eat and drink. When Mo Qi heard the other party say this, his head was a little angry, and he was about to reason with the other party, but was stopped by Anvina.
"We are wandering rangers, and while we travel around the world, we also seek some experience. In our opinion, helping other fish people is the best way to practice. Anvena said with a red face, and she was able to say some exaggerated things cheekily, "Maybe you don't know that it was with the help of this Mr. Mochi that defeated the Forgotten Air Force. β
"Hmm...... Seriously, he doesn't look like that powerful a fish-man. Listening to Avena's words, the tall fish-man looked at Mo Qi again, "However, if you want to help, I do have a small matter to hand over to you here, and I hope you can complete it." β
The familiar system lift sound sounded againβ
