Fourth, the master is lonely
I asked them to prepare a boat.
"We are willing to follow you, sir!" ”
I said, "No, I'm used to being lonely, like a lonely peak in the snow, so towering into the clouds, so proud in the snow." ”
Lamia wanted to laugh, but she held back, but the change in her expression had undoubtedly betrayed me, shattered the atmosphere I had worked so hard to manage, and nullified my magnificent famous sentence.
She wanted to go with me, and I said, "You stay in the mayor's office and take care of something for me, I'm enough for myself." ”
"That's just signing and stamping, and I don't know anything about it," Lamia said. ”
Unfortunately, because I don't understand, I don't even know if the financial management team is out of the treasury, but the economic situation of the city government is very good, and I am not very worried.
Lieutenant General Lamia went home to work, and Cai Wenruisi and I walked to the dock.
The dinner robot built a one-meter-high stone embankment to keep the lake from rising and a waterway that allowed water to flow into several underground cisterns in the city. Hearing that this was the practice of ancient Constantinople, she said that she would upgrade it in the future and add an electric filtration device, but at the moment we still dare not let the reactor run at full power, so the electricity is a little tight.
The water is relatively clean, so you can drink it without poisoning you on the spot, and of course you may have serious stomach problems after four or five years. What else can we expect in this age of drinking to quench thirst?
The rangers said, "Sir, pick a ship." ”
I realized a serious problem, I couldn't row and could only ask them to help. But if a tricky enemy, such as a red or black demon, or a strange water monster underwater, puts me in a bitter battle, will they be suspicious?
But I was prepared, and on more than one occasion I behaved in public to make people think I was wise and foolish. Even if I didn't behave well after an enemy encounter, it could be explained that I was looking for fun in a fierce battle.
After all, invincibility equals loneliness, and loneliness makes me release water, just like a cat playing with a mouse, which is human nature.
After thinking about it, I smiled confidently, looked at a ship, and leaped towards it with a delicate and dexterous move.
The bottom of this boat is so slippery, I didn't fall lightly.
They sat next to me in silence and I was going to respond with silence as well, but it didn't work, I had to say something to hide the embarrassment.
I said, "The water is blue." ”
They said, "Yes." ”
They swung their oars, and the boat sailed off the gray lake.
The lake is currently named "Wailing" because it is the end of the village of Wai, it is very large, very wide, and a kilometer from the shore is shrouded in fog all year round, and no one knows where its boundary is. Usually, the shores are abundant in fish within a year of fishing, although fishermen still venture out to fish in the fog. We built a small lighthouse on the shore to make sure these adventurers didn't get lost.
"Sir, I asked the families of the missing fishermen, and they said that the four fishermen said that they had seen an island in the fog, and they said that they wanted to visit the island at dinner. ”
I asked, "Islands?" They are not pirates, they are not scavengers, they are just fishermen, and the encounter with strange islands should tell us. ”
Cai Wenruisi said: "There is no disrespect, but the villagers of Haowai Village do not understand the principle of ordering and prohibiting. ”
It is true that most of the people in the village are uneducated in the black coffin, and they may believe in me, but in essence they are used to it.
I asked, "Is that island in the fog?" Did you ask the family members if they had any clues to get to the island? ”
Cai Wenruisi took out a small notebook, illuminated it with a flashlight, and wrote: "In the fog, there will be goldfish, shining, and exuding the smell of incense." Shortly after sailing along the scented boat, they saw the outline of an island. The older ones said they should go to the island to explore. ”
I said, "I see, so I said that the ship was unlikely to be attacked, and that something must have happened to them after they got to the island." ”
Cai Wenruisi said that we had almost reached that area, and sure enough, after a while, there were some goldfish under the boat, about the size of a palm, shining with a little golden light.
I smell the smell of burning incense, like roasted apples and roasted pears. The Rangers cheered up and said, "Just as they say!" ”
The outline of the island appeared in front of it, and it was neither large nor small, no more than a kilometer in radius. The Rangers took out their rifles and put on helmets and goggles.
We walked about 200 meters along the bank of the river until we reached a shoal, where we saw the missing boats, and the fisherman's footprints stretched into the island.
I said, "Stay here, I'm enough for myself, and if something goes wrong, hide in the lake, and the demon shouldn't dare to approach the ember boat." ”
Unable to disobey, they said, "Be careful." ”
The island is also a paradise for plants, those trees have been eroded by the fog all the year round and moldy, emitting a sour smell that does not kill people, and I take a breath that makes people's mouths feel like they have eaten expired cans.
I sighed and drank my expedition package, the Eye of Odin with a sclerosis potion. Actually, now I'm completely capable of dealing with the Red Demon, even the Black Demon, even if it's a Lava Demon, I can slip away in at least ten ways.
Mirsey is far inferior to me, and perhaps one day I will be able to reach the realm of Helsin. But my mentor is too high for me to guess.
Yao Chi once warned me that you must understand your own choices in order to make the most of your thoughts.
I don't know if I've made a choice, but I know I'm not determined.
Suddenly, I heard footsteps, the footsteps of a huge beast, like an elephant, or even larger, a black demon.
By the way, I'm hunting demons now, saving their organs and selling them to Ti Feng, who will then resell them to Mai Zong, which is a good deal. If the demand for Mai Zong is high enough, I think humans can even kill demons to extinction, just like we humans have been doing for hundreds of thousands of years, and it is our natural skill to exterminate other species.
However, demons also seem to be quite good at exterminating humans, so let's see who has higher skills.
The black demon broke off a tree with both arms and gnawed at it like a sugar cane, the demon eats both meat and grass, yes, they are nothing more than parasites on humans, but they make the host unrecognizable. They have a similar diet to humans, except that in terms of meat, they don't eat much of the rest of the animals, they only eat people.
I walked up to it, and it saw me, its eyes lit up, and it let out a low cry, which was even more terrifying in the silence of the woods.
I'm fishing for law enforcement, after all, it doesn't seem very decent to attack it while eating, after all, I'm the mayor of the city, the nominally first warrior of the black coffin, and it's the kind with a very big gap from the second place, and I'm also a person with status, and stabbing it with a poisoned sword from behind doesn't quite fit my identity.
I have gotten rid of the identity of a scavenger, I have switched from the pursuit of material things to the pursuit of spirituality, which is called Maslow....
Pavlov's dog.
It lunged at me reflexively, opened its mouth to bite me, I pulled out the thunder sword, slashed out the yucedar, it staggered after the sword, and for a few seconds it could not slow down.
I'm a fidder, it's really not blowing, even if Le Gang sees it, I have to walk around.
I said, "You did it first, and I fought back in self-defense." ”
The black demon's muscles trembled and he became furious, and it lifted a large stone and threw it at me, and I shook it away with an iron lotus.
Even if you use the god-killing to kill it, it's not a matter of killing it once, it's likely to escape and lead me into the demons, and it looks like I'm sweating a bit.
I threw out the torrent and started running, close to the demon, and it slammed into me with a roar, the fangs on its face extended, making it even uglier, like a giant grinder.
The dark cloud filled me and enveloped it for a few seconds, the teleblade making it weak and sluggish, and then I slashed the god with Mjonir, the hunt ending when I hit it for the fourth time. The Extinction Blade imparted by Helsingh greatly strengthened Mjonir's power, scorching it while slicing through flesh.
No one ever thought of eating demon meat, because it would poison people 100%, and the essence of demons was human beings in the last century, which made humans instinctively avoid this food.
What's more, I'm past the age of scavenging.
Alas, now that I think about it, it's unbearable to look back, dogs are man's best friends, how could I eat dogs back then? Not to mention the robbers...
I cut the demon's fangs, gouged out its eyes, drew some of its blood, preserved it with a film of shadow blood, and sent it to the freezer when I finished my errand on the island.
The footprints diverged here, one ended here, while others burrowed into the mountains beside them. It seems that the black demon ate one of the fishermen, and the rest of the fishermen left him and ran away.
I continued to follow the footprints of the mountain, and I heard that the caravan of the black coffin would be here in the next two days, and I was not sure when it was, and that the matter here had to be done quickly.
Seriously, the scenery here is a little pleasant, and if it weren't for the occasional demons and beasts along the way, you might be able to do a tour or something in the future.
This island is the first time that the people of the village have landed, and the rules of the black coffin have been owned by the village since ancient times. I've got to plant a little flag here, swear sovereignty, and preferably make a statue....
The fisherman's footprints were clearly in great trouble, and they were attacked by the beast again, and they shot but it was useless, and the bullet hit the trunk of the tree, which was tantamount to an invitation to the beast to eat. The beasts were shrewd, and when they approached them under the cover of the woods, they panicked, and they knew no how to shoot.
But then, someone rescued them and drove away the beasts.
There was another man in their footprints, and who was that man?
I walked through a large and dense tree wall and came across an astonishing ancient ruin, which seemed to have been a mountain manor or castle, but now resembled a mausoleum.
I broke out in a cold sweat, after all, I was just here to do some daily tasks, and now the plot is not going right.
Suddenly, I heard the three fishermen shouting at me, "It's the mayor!" It's Mayor Longinus! ”
I breathed a sigh of relief, whatever was in the manor, I just had to send these burdens home now.
