Chapter 160: Evacuation overnight

ps: Modify the wording.

"'Noble Savior Pill Set'?" Barrett was stunned for a moment, then laughed out loud, "That's a fitting name!" For those 'cupboards', these potions are really a lifesaver. ”

"'Cabinet'?? Those court nobles really need this, but not many of them can afford it! Noodle said and shook his fingers, "You know, in order to minimize the toxic side effects, so that ordinary people can use it." The internal price of an entire set of these alchemical potions is also around 2,600 gold coins. If you want to start on the market, you can only go to the black market. There the 'White Pearl' is worth 750 gold coins, the 'Silver Pearl' is worth 1,150 gold coins, and the 'Black Pearl' is worth 1,700 gold coins. And it's just high, not low! ”

Rieelly's face turned green after hearing the halfling wanderer's offer: "A toy for the big nobles, a life-saving item for the middle nobles." If this guy wasn't a part-time alchemist, he would be really rich and surprisingly rich! ”

"Looks like this mage is really well prepared! If we hadn't met underground, in an open place, it would have been unknown who would have killed the deer! Speaking of this, Barrett shouted in his heart that it was a fluke.

Claudia. Auditore became a little worried: "If I'm not mistaken, this guy used the spell before. The highest ones are the 3-ring fireball spell and lightning beam! As a 3-ring mage, he is so extravagant in consumables, and he probably has a good family background. ”

"So what? Since the 'Voice of Mysteries' Mage Guild is not afraid, is it still afraid of the backstage that is not known now? Barrett gave his teammate's back a crisp "snap-" sound, "If you're really worried." Then pack up and get out of here. If someone is stuck in this ruin. That's really a bunch of turtles in an urn. ”

"Barrett, you're willing to be a turtle yourself. Don't piggyback on a few of us! Despite that, Rielly's movements were quickened by this.

After tossing most of the unused loot into the new storage bag, Rielly threw a large pile of debris out of it to make enough space.

Looking at these personal items in front of him, Clematis on the side. Bot patted his head: "It seems that the guy we solved is really a pampered young master!" Even when I went out to dig the ruins, I brought skin care products with me. ”

And certainly not just Clematis. Bote, Rieleley and Claudia on the team. The eyes of Auditore and other ladies had once lingered on these bottles and cans on the ground.

The beloved wife even reached out and lifted the lid of one of the jars. I picked it up and sniffed it. In this way, even Barrett smelled fresh rose petals.

This made Barrett's gaze at the corpse in front of him even more disdainful - although the nobles of this world liked to use various spices to hide their body odor. But the mages clearly have a quicker and more effective solution.

In this case, it is understandable that female spellcasters still carry such beauty products. But the corpse in front of him is a man, which naturally gives people a strange look.

But soon the cat boy also threw these beauty products aside, and Rielly, who had finished the preparation work, kicked the headless corpse that had been stripped into a naked pig at her feet: "Okay guys, now you can go on your way." ”

It seems that the ladies are not used to using the leftover cosmetics used by others! What exactly is this cleanliness? Or is it something else? With that in mind, Barrett knew that now was not the time to think about it. I saw that he immediately flicked the 'Burning Eye Helmet' on his head, and then a halo appeared on his head, as if he had installed a large 60-watt light bulb on his head.

"I'm really a little reluctant to sell this helmet in the future, Barrett! If you have it, you won't have to go so much trouble carrying oil lamps and torches in the future. Claudia following Barrett. Auditore reached out and touched the helmet in front of him and laughed.

Barrett, who was at the forefront, said without looking back, "Since you like it so much." Do you want me to give you this helmet? Anyway, it's good brightness, and no matter who you wear it on, it's enough for our team. ”

Claudia who heard this. Auditore shook his head repeatedly: "Forget it! Never mind! Such a mighty helmet is only suitable for a warrior like you, the captain! ”

I heard the snickering of my teammates behind me. Barrett, whose face was hidden by his helmet, also frowned: "Don't think I don't know what you're thinking. When I get outside, I'll be sure to trade this damn helmet as soon as possible. ’

Compared with the cautious attitude when they came, the pace of players who embarked on the way home was naturally much faster. Even with the huge disparity in the cost of climbing and descending the stairs, it took the players to step into the dilapidated house in less time than before.

The moment she stepped out of the fireplace, Claudia. Auditore couldn't help but whisper, "I'm finally out of that damn underground passage, I'm here with fresh air and warm sunshine...... Wait, where is the sun? ”

Suddenly found Claudia in the dark inside the house. Auditore, immediately looking at the vanished faΓ§ade. I saw that on the black sky, the dense stars shimmered like the sparkling waves in the sea under the sun.

Barrett, who turned around, raised his eyebrows and said, "Miss Auditore! You don't want to think about how long we've been wearing them in the ruins. It's normal to stay up at night under such circumstances. ”

But at this moment, Rielly's weak voice came from the side of several people: "You guys should wait for me!" Damn damn it, the first thing I'll do when I get back to Affleck City is to go to the temple and solve this problem. ”

The mage, who had only crawled out of the fireplace with Lalu's support, was gasping for air with his hands on his knees. The halfling wanderer behind her clasped his nostrils with his little finger: "Wasn't you in good spirits when you just searched?" Why did it become this muddy now? ”

"I'm too lazy to bother with you right now. I'll make you look good when I'm back. Rielly turned her head. Glaring at the noodle who was talking about the cool words.

"Okay, two. Now is not the time to argue. We're about to hit the road. Speaking of this, Barrett looked at Rielly, "Mage, if you really can't walk, I think I can still carry you back to Aiku Village." ”

Claymatis. Bot suddenly patted Barrett's big backpack on his back and said, "It's thanks to the 'dimensional bag'. Otherwise, Barrett, you would never dare to say such a thing! ”

Barrett, who moved his watch for a while, nodded: "That's right! With the share of the 'Dimensional Bag', plus the temporary increase in the power of the 'Destruction Gloves'. I think even if you carry a mage on your back, you can be in a light load state. In this way, even in the dense forest, it will not affect our travel speed. ”

"But it's already night. Is it really appropriate for us to hit the road in this situation? I remember Barrett saying that it would be unwise to rush at night! And the risks in forests increase exponentially. "Claudia stepping out of the dilapidated house. Auditore suddenly turned around and said.

Hearing this, Barrett shook his head and explained, "Miss, alas! This time and that time! You don't look at what the situation is, it's likely that the mage's companion we just dealt with is in the nearby ruins. In this case, the sooner we get out of here, the better. Even in the woods at night, there may be threats. But it's better to get on the road than the lesser of two evils. ”

Rieley, with her hands on Barrett's shoulders, complained, "But Barrett, your cuirass is too ugly. It would be nice to be able to find a back chair. ”

Barrett, who had a lot of weight on him, wanted to reprimand her, but considering Rielly's current state, he put up with it. And Claudia on the side. Auditore didn't have any concerns: "Lily, are you afraid that the two lumps of things that bulged up in the game will be crushed by the iron armor in front of you." ”

It's a pity that this person is hanging on Barrett's body, and at this time, even if he wants to fight back against Claudia. Auditore also seemed so powerless.

Barrett, who heard this earlier, had a little anger in his heart that vanished because of this: "According to Auditore, Rieli's character in the game must be very different from reality. That is to say, in reality, a certain strong, short-tempered woman seems to be an airfield. ’

The wilderness is quiet after dark. As far as the eye can see, the dense forest is thick. The eerie one seems to hide the boundless darkness. Barrett, with a big light bulb on his head, relied on his memory. Embark on the same path that was opened up when you came.

It seems that because it is not yet summer, there are many insects in the woods, but most of them do not make any obvious sound. Stepping on the path he had carved out with a machete, Barrett's eyes never stopped. He kept an eye out for the threat lurking between the trees.

"Smack-smack-" Several moths slammed into Barrett's helmet like flames. Apparently he had the large light source hanging on his head, and he became the target of various phototaxis insects.

Therefore, Barrett, who had to shake his head from time to time to drive away flying insects, had to ask for help like the cat-man warrior monk in the team: "Can Lalu do me a favor!" These bugs are so much of an impact on my vision. ”

"I'll fix it for you right away." As soon as the words fell, the cat boy in front of him jumped up. "Brush! Brush! Brush! The pair of cat's paws fluttered in the air, and then the corpses of insects landed on Barrett's shoulders and chest.

However, Barrett was very satisfied with the situation: "Thank you, Lalu! I'm afraid this kind of thing is going to trouble you tonight! ”

"Don't worry! It's all wrapped around me. The cat boy said, raising his head and patting his chest. But at this time, Rieli whispered in Barrett's ear: "Save some use, don't be tired of our family Lalu!" ”

"If you're worried about getting tired of this little thing, are you underestimating your own cats?" As he said this, Barrett touched the head of the cat-man warrior monk next to his leg.

Brief episodes don't affect the speed at which players can move forward. Barrett, who has an extra 100 pounds of load on his body, relies on his extraordinary strength and strong physique. Still moving smoothly through the dense jungle. And with this big man pioneer to open the way. The rest of the players who followed were also walking with ease.

I don't know if it was when the players came before. Cleaned up all the monsters you might encounter along the way. On the jungle night path, which was supposed to be extremely risky, players did not encounter any accidents at all.

Although the people were bitten by the mosquitoes that were ubiquitous in the area. But when the scorching sun revealed its light and heat to the forest, every player had a smile of joy on their faces.

"I still remember the crooked-necked tree in front of me." Suddenly reaching out and pointing ahead, Noodles exclaimed in surprise, "If my influence is correct, this is what we encountered two days before we entered the ruins." ”

Claudia who squatted down and rubbed her calves. Auditore Auditore moved his neck, which was already a little stiff, a few times: "I didn't expect that this night, we actually walked out of the distance that we had only completed in the previous two days. No wonder I always feel back pain now. ”

"I said Barrett! Now that such a long distance has been opened. I guess it's a shame to take a break now! "The same bent over panting Clematis. Bot said, "Maybe you can stand it if you continue like this, but we definitely can't hold it." ”

Barrett, who had found a clean place to put Rielly down, stretched: "When did I say I won't rest now." But at most we will rest for two hours, and then we will continue on our way. Wait until it gets dark and rest as usual. ”

"Oh my! Barrett, how can you do this. Are you a tyrant? "Claudia with sore legs. Auditore couldn't help but complain.

And already a butt sat on the ground on the Kleimatis. Bot wailed even more: "How can two hours be enough, without eight hours of rest, I won't be able to use any of my magic skills today." ”

"The mage of the 'Voice of Mysteries' Mage Guild that we killed before is really a good person! His relics are arguably the solution to our biggest problem. After saying this, Rielly took out a cover-up from the 'dimensional bag' that could be called delicate. The cushions of this bedding are thick and the stitching is skillful. The dark green cloth is wrapped in a yellow lining. When it appears, the surrounding players can even smell the slight smell of campfire and goose meat, which is reassuring.

"Does this have anything to do with what you said earlier, Rielly?" For the sudden appearance of the cover roll in front of them, no one among the players understood its function for a while.

"Look at you guys. Now you know what the power of knowledge is! Rielly smiled sheepishly, "This is a very rare 'Howard Enhancement Cover,' though it's not as famous as Howard's other great inventions. But still for the benefit of adventurers in various places. Because this blanket provides the benefit of a full night's sleep in a small amount of time. ”

Want to activate the magic of this cover. The user just needs to climb in. This is followed by an hour of undisturbed rest. 'Howard Intensive Cover' allows users to enjoy all the benefits of a full 8-hour break, including the end of exhaustion and fatigue, natural medical treatment, and more. Naturally, it can also be spent 1 hour preparing for the arcane. Arcanes cast in the last 8 hours are still included in the user's daily spell limit.

The only problem is that each cover only works once a day. Also, after using the Howard Enhancement Cover, the user will not be able to receive the same benefit again (either the same or another item) for 48 hours.

"It's a great thing!" Claymatis. Bot added bitterly: "It's a pity that there is only one in the team now. ”

"Alright Lily! I believe there is more to it than just such a strange thing in the 'Dimensional Bag'! "Claudia. Auditore's eyes rolled, "If there is anything that we haven't taken out before, now we can open our eyes!" ”

"I didn't mean to hide anything!" Rielly feigned anger and said, "Didn't you just say that you were going to hurry up and dispose of the items on that mage's corpse?" Let me leave the contents of the 'Dimensional Bag' out for now. ”

"That's it! All right! It's not our right thing! Let's see what else is in there. "Claudia. Auditore was a little impatient.

Rielly was then seen taking out a second resting item, a woollen sleeping bag embroidered with stars and moons in silver and blue thread, which smelled of lavender.

Patting the sleeping bag in her hand, Rielly said slowly, "The 'magic sleeping bag' gives the user a comfortable and restful sleep. As long as they are inside the sleeping bag, the user is affected by the Endurance Environmental Spell. After resting in the sleeping bag for 8 hours, you will also recover 1 HP per character level in addition to being able to rest normally. ”

"It's the equivalent of a long break." Barrett, who touched his chin, then shook his head: "But compared to the previous 'Howard Enhancement Cover', its effect is nothing." ”

"It's obvious that the mage has prepared two sleeping bags for different situations! The effect of the two will naturally be different! Rielly shook her head, "And the price of the 'Howard Booster Cover' is five or six times that of the 'Magic Sleeping Bag'!" It's normal that the gap is so big! ”

Clematis after getting up. Bot immediately stepped forward and asked, "Hey! Feed! Lily, don't sue me, there's only two sleeping bags left. ”

"Now comes the real highlight." Speaking of which, Rielie really bent her eyebrows with a smile. I saw her take out a beautiful quill with a silver-white nib: "This is an automatic secretary quill pen." Its preservation can free a mage like me from the work of copying scrolls. Because of the magic quill that can copy scrolls on its own, it is very popular with mages everywhere. ”

Any automatic scribe quills are activated with a command word in the dragon language, which roughly means "engraving". After it finishes the scroll it was ordered to copy, it automatically stops working. However, its work can also be artificially interrupted by dragging it off the scroll in your hand (though doing so will cost you all the material needed to copy the scroll). It is important that the quill can only be activated once a day, even if an activity that has already been carried out is artificially interrupted.

As long as the 'automatic feather' pen is active, it can copy the scroll for the user (which can be any spell he knows). In any respect, as if the user had copied it himself, whether it included the mental expense of the material, or time and other prerequisites. Therefore, casters often activate the automatic secretary quills before going to bed. (Or, for spellcasters with more debauched lives, before they go to drink).

"That's right! There are also two other eye items, although they are not magical artifacts, but they also contain traditional Chinese medicine. Rielly said as she pulled out two books.

One of them is the 'runic dictionary'. Despite its name, it does not provide the magical effects of the Guardian Rune spell. However, this is an encyclopedic guide to ancient writing. It is very useful when using the text to decipher the jumble of inscriptions at this megalithic site on the continent. The runic dictionary is not perfect, and the prerequisite for using this dictionary is a certain level of knowledge of ancient characters (at least level 1 of text interpretation). However, when using this tool to decipher a variety of inscriptions, you can use this tool to gain an additional check effect (+4 ambient bonus).

The other one is the codebook used within the 'Voice of Mysteries' Mage Guild. This kind of book, which is always paired with a decoded book, has an encoded table on each page, and can easily generate a random list of words. This allows the user to refer to specific words in the pages, rows, and columns of the codebook in place of the original characters and numbers. Creatures without a proper decoded book would have to spend a very difficult linguistic test to decipher if they tried to read it.

While encrypting a message with a codebook takes 10 times as long as it takes to write a plaintext message, it takes the same amount of time to decode it with a codebook. However, it gives a relatively simple and much more difficult decision. (To be continued......)
