Chapter 45: Spoils and a Loot Scheme
Acoste walked out of the Blue Dragon's lair with his new team members with their heads held high, and was once again illuminated by the warm sunlight, and the group had the refreshing feeling that every pore of the body was stretched from the inside out.
As for the four of Canto, whether they can breathe fresh air or shine in pleasant sunlight again depends on their creation, although the half-elf sword master himself thinks it is unlikely that they will be able to escape.
Instead of killing them, Kogan knocked them out and threw them back one by one from the hole that Acoste and Mavi had drilled, and then Doris willingly put a few more mud into stone to fill in the results of the day's digging for Ling......
This is the dwarf's idea, but Yacoste silently praised this kind of ruthless method, even if Mavi just joined his team, Yacoste didn't care, after all, they were not a good person, but a group of fierce adventurers.
You can show your kindness to people who don't matter, just like Ling will help some strangers a lot of times, and Acoste won't interfere with him. But treat the enemy,There's no so-called mercy.,Otherwise, you're harming yourself and your teammates.,There have been a lot of people in history who let go when the big bad guy was able to eliminate the hero of the weak period at the beginning.,But at the end of the story, it was killed by the hero protagonist.,The reverse is the same.。 Acoste said that he was not a villain, nor was he a hero, so Acoste said that he would not make such a low-level mistake......
After settling these little things, Acoste divided the spoils of the equipment that came along in the dragon's lair, and the gladiator's attack on the leather armor Acoste himself was blackened. However, everyone didn't have any opinions, and there was no suitable person in their team to wear it except him. Kogan and Mavi are both armor professionals, and the two Dharma Niangs need not be said much. Li Qing has always been his rag shirt to break the world, and although Ling can also wear leather armor as a thief, she already has a black salute on her body that is more suitable for her, and according to the aesthetic point of view of the dancing girl, she doesn't want that earthy yellow leather armor with a few holes, even if it is a legendary equipment.
Doris obtains Ganil's shabby magic robes, the little druid finally ends his "naked" adventure, Ling gets another pair of earrings that she has been dreaming of for a long time, she is also the first person in the Scarlet Frost Squad to put together a transcendent suit, and the excited dancing queen kisses Acoste directly in public. That fragrant kiss made the half-elf Sword Saint dazed, and he could barely find where the north side was.
The Windwhisperer's necklace and elemental neck ring were in the hands of Mavi and Doris, the Ring of the Sword Hero Acoste himself was blackened, and it happened to be forcibly formed into a pair with the Ring of the Juggernaut on his right hand, and as for the last Broken Ring to the dwarf Kogan, it was also considered to give the Berserker a mouthful of soup to drink.
The only ones who didn't get any benefits from this distribution of the spoils were Lavis and Li Qing, and the warrior monk didn't need to say much, he had always been like this, and the little girl didn't care. All she wants is her brother to be safe and sound, and she doesn't care about anything else......
The group started again, halfway through the Cormier Mountains, and half more would be the end of the devastating climb.
__________________________
And in West Hartland. One is close to Baldur's Gate, on the shores of a karst lake, on the edge of a thousand needles forest. A thriving town is really thriving.
"Drink, drink. Drink! A loud call came from a clearing, a total of 60 ordinary humans in a row of 10. A phalanx of 3 is being trained.
They held military spears in their hands, and rehearsed according to the movements demonstrated by Yuenuo standing in the front row, for these civilians who may have never held a weapon, a full 15 kilograms of iron military spears may be a bit heavy, let alone have to wave them all morning without stopping, their faces are red, their sweat has long soaked their coarse linen clothes, their bodies are shaking, and they may fall to the ground at any point......
But none of them gave up, not one of them quit.
"Tsk, you see they're really serious, maybe someone will be successful in a few days." On the stone roof next to the clearing, the leader of the mercenary group, Lakcherzhen, who had been hired by Acoste for half a year, sat there, drinking strong liquor with a bald man beside him while watching the militia drill.
"Yes, I have to say that the half-elf is a wise lord, he has greatly increased the welfare of the garrison, which is why these ordinary people will endure this inhuman training even if they are desperate, he is really a devil who can play with people's hearts......" The bald man raised his head and poured a large sip of spirits, then watched Rakchel continue to analyze. I don't believe you didn't see it, these guys are just ordinary people with mediocre qualifications, and even the harsh training will not allow him to become a successful warrior, but now they all have signs of promotion, and that half-elf sword master must have special means in his hands! “
"Hehe, I still need you to say this." Rakchel smiled and shook his head, he had already seen the extraordinaryness of these people in the first mission, and now as he guessed, that guy had become a near-high-level professional in a few months, and he was also a temple honored nobleman, and he was still the leader of the broken mercenary group, and his strength was also stagnant......
"I have an idea, I heard that the half-elf lord has gone on an adventure, since he is so rich, or we ......" The bald man suddenly smiled gloomily, he was about to discuss something with Rakchel, but before he could say anything, he was interrupted by the other party.
"No, I will never agree!" The mercenary leader knew what he wanted to say, and resolutely shook his head and refused, "That adult's means and strength are not something you can guess or I can guess, you don't have this kind of thought, otherwise I will have to kick you out of the mercenary group." I'll tell you, when he was still a mid-level professional, he led his adventure team to kill more than a hundred winter wolves, do you think you have beaten a winter wolf? “
Rakchel rebuked in a fierce voice, he originally saw that this territory was built so well, and he was ready to bring the people of his mercenary group to join the garrison of the Starry Night Territory, but now his subordinates can come up with such a bad idea, which can make the mercenary leader angry.
"Hehe, coward." The bald man saw that Lakchel rejected him without even thinking about it, and his heart suddenly became unhappy, but he didn't show it, for the time being, he was not the opponent of the mercenary leader, and the bald man drank the last sip of the liquor in his jug, turned around and jumped off the roof.
Looking at the other party's departing figure, Lakchel suddenly had a bad premonition, but he couldn't say anything, after all, he and the other party were members of the same mercenary group, and if he said it out of nowhere, it would not be a good thing for the leader of the Starry Night Collar or the mercenary group within his own mercenary group.
He only hoped that his threat would be of some use now, otherwise the warrior country that he had managed to pull together might be finished with him...... (To be continued.) )
