Chapter 200: Disbanded Early Again
At the same inn as when Gillentina was waiting for her teammates in March, the same table with a bag of 247 gold coins was placed. Everyone in the inn, including the owner, looked at the bag with extreme envy, and although they didn't know how much money it contained, the heavy sound that came out of the bag and the golden reflection that overflowed from the bag's mouth were enough to make everyone fantasize about it.
Seeing this, the innkeeper quickly judged that this was one of the most common things adventurers did - sharing the spoils. After patting the waiter, who was still drooling, pulling him back from his fantasy and letting him continue working, the boss took a deep breath and tried to expel the greed in his heart. Regardless of whether this is more or less the reward that adventurers have gambled with their lives, he is a small shopkeeper who does not have the strength to kill that group of adventurers to obtain these gold coins. After erasing the unreal greed from his mind, the boss watched with a play-watching mentality how the adventurers divided the spoils.
To the boss's surprise, the members of this adventurous team did not have much joy in the face of the distribution of spoils, let alone the tense atmosphere caused by unfair distribution. He thinks the atmosphere of the team now is like the heavy atmosphere when he lost his teammates.
"The name of that beautiful half-elf captain seems to be Gillentina...... Yes, that's the name. She also served as a temporary guard for our village last winter, and she came here with the other temporary guards to drink many times. I remember how many people were in her team this year? It doesn't seem like there's any increase or decrease, huh? Although I heard that they were very unlucky to fail in this mission, and everyone was still injured when they returned to the village, it seems that injuries and failures are commonplace for adventurers, right? ”
The shopkeeper was puzzled by the heaviness of the members of Gillentina's Adventure Party, as he had the impression that it was not uncommon for mercenaries and adventurers to fail in their missions. In the village of Carlo, which served as the starting point for adventures to the Green Shadow Forest, innkeepers or hoteliers like him had long been accustomed to seeing adventurers who were discouraged for various reasons.
"It's lucky to have a priest in the team and be able to heal such a horrible injury, and I couldn't be more lucky. If it weren't for the elven priest named Lexa, would you still be able to gather around here and exuate such a heavy aura? Shouldn't you be running around looking for a healing priest by now? What a sigh, don't put away the bag of gold coins so as not to make people greedy! ”
I didn't see Gillentina and them take action for a long time, and the somewhat irritated boss scolded Gillentina and them in pieces. To be honest, although he had finally thrown away his greedy heart, he still felt some irritability in the face of the bag of gold coins that could change his life.
Gillentina: They did face some problems – they had to end their adventures early this year, too.
First of all, although their injuries have been healed, there are some difficult problems for both the team as a team and individually.
Gillentina's armor has long since become a pile of tatters, so as a warrior, she desperately needs to buy some practical armor to defend herself. Unfortunately, the current time period - mid-July to early September happens to be the most active period for most adventurers, and it is extremely difficult to get a piece of armor at this extraordinary time, because many adventurers bring back Warcraft leather at this time to exchange for some new armor. It takes some time for the craftsmen in the village to reprocess the leather into a finished product, and there will be a long break in the gear. So the armor of a silver-tier output warrior is not to mention. Especially in a small place like Carlo, where it is difficult to store too much equipment, it is still a little difficult to replenish her women's armor again.
And the price of all the equipment will increase a little in the past few months, even for the sake of her own wallet, which is still not full even though it is dozens of times larger than before, she has to give up fighting for armor with a group of crazy guys in this crazy period.
Mal isn't in great form either. As a result of the fierce fighting he had fought for months, his shield and hammer had long since been broken. After several fierce battles over the past few months, his rapid increase in strength had already given him the idea of rebuilding a warhammer and shield, and after this great retreat, he could throw the broken hammer and shield into the furnace and rebuild it.
There weren't too many problems with Hakvar's equipment, but after experiencing these few dangers, he came up with the idea of returning to the Mage Tower of the Eisen Empire to make up for the knowledge of Warcraft and exchange it for magic potions for self-defense. During these battles, he often suffers from a lack of mana, making him a burden to the team in the later stages of the fight. Although this has happened before, it has not been as serious as these few times. In addition, he was really shy at the time, and he couldn't afford to buy magic potions that were extremely expensive for him.
After dividing the 247 gold coins in front of him this time, he should be able to exchange them for a lot of useful magic potions in the Mage Tower. If it really doesn't work, he can also go to the elven kingdom and buy some magic potions through the relationship of his teammates in front of him. A gold-level priest who is still a minor should be a hot figure even in the elven kingdom, and it shouldn't be too difficult to find some connections to buy some magic potions or something. It would be even more wonderful if this teammate could be brought into the famous library of the city of life of the elves.
The problem with mayflies is a bit bigger. He lost his left eye during this adventure, which was a great disaster for a thief who had to probe the situation, find and disarm the trap, serve as a guard, and fight in close combat. The overall field of view has been reduced by at least 40%, not to mention some visual and motor asymmetry. It was clear that he had some visual problems, and according to Drew, he must have been a little surprised to see with one eye and one right eye. Moreover, it is not impossible that there will be some deviation in the right eye during the period of time that has just been in the hand.
Normally, this kind of problem would not seem so important, but once he is in the heat of battle, the slightest difference is enough to kill him. And his death, the act of a one-corner collapse, is also likely to lead to the demise of the entire team. Whether it's for the sake of his own life or for the sake of the team that has begun to develop feelings, Mayfly doesn't want to set off on an adventure again in this uncertain situation.
In addition to his eyes, he had to find weapons and armor that were inconspicuous but effective for defense.
One of his two daggers was left on the way to be chased by the Green Shadow Python, and the other was worn out by the fierce battle of those days. In addition, after this difficult retreat, he felt that he was already peeking at the gate of the Golden Rank, so it was still necessary to prepare 2 Daggers of the Golden Rank.
His tight-fitting leather armor was almost scrapped, but its good light-absorbing ability and the amount of blood coagulated on his body at the time made it difficult for others to see the state of the leather armor from a distance. This kind of leather armor with good material and workmanship can generally only be customized within the thieves' guild in cities with a certain scale, and the thieves' guild in Karlo Village really does not have the ability to make this special leather armor at present.
Therefore, the mere situation of mayflies would make it difficult for them to enter the Green Shadow Forest again, let alone Fremi.
Gillentina smiled wryly, and the whole team was plunged into this heavy atmosphere because of Frémi's request to quit the team and end his life as an adventurer and return to his hometown to marry and have children.
Returning to their hometown to enjoy life after making a lot of money is the reality of most ordinary adventurers. They don't have any yearning for an adventurous life, and they fight desperately every day in order to earn enough gold coins to enjoy for the rest of their lives and return to their hometown to live a well-off life. Not to mention the other Drew's father, Kova, is a representative of this kind of adventurer, and it was at that time that Kova, who was rewarded with a large amount of gold coins for saving a large caravan, washed his hands of gold and went home to fetch Drew's mothers and live a happy life.
This year's income has long exceeded what Frémi had expected when he became an adventurer. When she finished distributing the gold coins in front of her, even if he and she repaid the generous nobleman who had given her brother a huge sum of 25 gold coins, she would still have at least 30 gold coins left in her hand! As long as it is managed properly, these gold coins will not only allow her to open a small restaurant in her hometown and make a good living, but also allow her to honor her parents. And as long as her gifted younger brother graduates from the Brilliant City Academy, what is in front of her family is the situation of a person who has attained the Tao and ascended to heaven.
In the world of Fit, the marriage age of human civilians is generally around 18 years old, although there are also girls who marry earlier. If it weren't for the stubbornness of her desire to repay the nobleman's alms, she has always lived the life of an adventurer, and she would have married and had children a few years ago and became the most ordinary human woman.
In addition, she was a little stimulated by this year's adventure, and she sensed that her own strength was beginning to distance herself from her teammates, so she made such a request to Gillentina at this time.
In other words, according to the current situation, Gillentina's adventure party will also be disbanded early this year, and it will be in July earlier than last year.
