Chapter 42: The Flower Peacock
After that, the entire team began to renovate in full swing, and Shen Yan fell into a state of idleness again.
After this incident, everyone finally figured out - the ingenuity of "His Royal Highness the Prince" was not said, no matter what difficulties he had, as long as he turned his head, he could solve them! But when it comes to hands-on ability, that's hehe...... Sure enough, I've never worked before!
Changing the wheels on the fly wasn't too difficult in a team with a large number of elite fighters, but everyone was at a loss as to why the wheels could be replaced with warped planks that could run around the grass. Ozmat asked Shen Yan without knowing whether he was alive or dead, and after Shen Yan's patient five-minute explanation, he came to the conclusion that "I am really a monkey".
"It turned out to be magic!" A certain child shouted this, and everyone was relieved, it was not surprising that it was magic.
Shen Yan looked at these people with some sadness, and suddenly understood why magicians had such a high status in this world; Why did Milton, a level 8 greatsword, give in to a level 3 little mage - because Milton would never believe that the little mage could only do two or three spells and couldn't even handle a full battle - she used up all her magic and didn't care if the enemy was dead or not, and the caster was dying because she ran out of mana.
So the profession of magician requires a lot of knowledge, and they usually solve problems with their minds rather than magic. Many of the problems that plague the world seem to them to be very simple. But in Milton's eyes, all the "magical" things that magicians do are magic. Fireball lightning is magic, and so is the lever pulley.
This appears to be a reverence for magic, but it is actually a reverence for knowledge, and there is nothing wrong with that. The modern attitude towards knowledge is the big problem.
Although the work is not difficult to do, it has become a mess when it spreads to the entire fleet, and there are a lot of problems in management and coordination, but Shen Yan is too lazy to correct them one by one. It takes thousands of years to accumulate, and the gods can't solve it all at once. Anyway, it can take six hours for precise management, and it's only a whole day to be busy, and you can't pretend to be invisible.
"De'er~" He rode the good horse that once belonged to a certain baron, but now it has completely become Shen Yan's personal property, and Shi Shiran walked away. Although it was just an idea, it had already worked, and he no longer had any psychological burden when he was lazy - idlers are like this.
The grasslands are sparse, and in the distance are high mountains with snow-capped tops.
From top to bottom, it is like an overturned watercolor, forming a ribbon of color from light to dark, and finally returning to a large forest of thick green.
At first glance, this scenery is very eye-catching, and it feels like the whole person has returned to nature, and from the inside out, it exudes a fresh spring breath like a young bud. But after a long time, you will feel that the color is gray-brown in addition to various greens, and it is very monotonous. And that smell is not spring, but the smell of damp sweat.
"Huh?" Shen Yan subconsciously rubbed his eyes, "What's that?" β
On the grassland behind the convoy, in addition to the endless green and the traces pressed out when the convoy came, there was a big blue bar!
"How did my spellcaster get there...... Wait, am I blue-green blind?! Shen Yan was frightened inexplicably.
"What, you cricket perception 5 is blind! That's a man, a man who has been following the convoy since it left the avenue! People specially marked it for you, and you still don't appreciate it, hell blue-green blindness! Penny grumbled loudly.
"Someone there, you say? I don't seem to see anything......" Shen Yan rubbed his eyes again, and then looked hard! As a result, I couldn't see anything except the blue bar floating in the air. His perception is low, except for some hardware reasons, such as hearing loss and dull sense of taste, which need to be treated with divine powers; The bigger reason is the inability to concentrate, which requires long-term training to improve. But at least his eyesight is fine!
Elven vision, in particular, is notoriously sharp! The eyes in the range of 500 meters are as if they are equipped with quadruple lenses, and they are absolutely delicate when you look at them carefully! But he really tried his best this time, but he still didn't find anything.
"Well, that guy is a master at you." Penny sighed, invisibility, cooling, mimicry, color-changing and other techniques were useless to her now, but Penny had accumulated countless experience to get to this point. Back then, the lady said that if she kills your whole family, she will kill your whole family, and it would be embarrassing if she missed one. If you miss someone every time several times in a row, maybe there will be rumors on the rivers and lakes that the lady's eyes are not very good, then it will not be embarrassing but embarrassing.
"That guy is running away!" Maybe it was because Shen Yan had been staring in that direction for too long, and he noticed the wrong "stalker", so he immediately moved quickly to the other side! It's a pity that his superb skills are not hidden under the instructions of the blue bar! Seeing Shen Yan's eyes follow, the "stalker" knew that he was exposed, and he changed to the direction of the convoy and continued to escape.
"Milton! Omar! There are stalkers! Over there! "Shen Yan rushed up to deliver food by himself, but he still has a trick called God Guard!" Catherine, bow and arrow! Tiger, come and protect me! β
Okay, he's calling all the Big Four as little brothers.
However, when they heard the call, the Big Four dropped what they were doing almost at the same time, and they came! One by one, they ran faster than Shen Yan rode a horse! Shen Yan was depressed in his heart...... What do you think is the use of riding a horse in this world? What's the use of planing?! It's better to move bricks than to practice like this, do you know how much money you make less?
He also knows that it is all practiced by people who have worked hard for decades! But...... Isn't that pantothenic acid in my heart?
"Where's the man?" "In what direction?" "I really didn't find ......"
But when the four of them arrived, they would only follow Shen Yan's horse, and they were all confused - they looked for it with eight big eyes, but they couldn't find anything, so they could only follow Shen Yan's hand and look blindly. Seeing that the man ran farther and farther, stepping into the rut marks at every step, leaving no trace at all, Shen Yan could only look at the blue stripe in a hurry!
"He may have used some kind of stealth magic, and you can't find him unless he is attacked." Penny said regretfully.
"Nothing is impossible...... Lend me your shield! Shen Yan was riding on a horse, and he suddenly reached out to grab the shield that the tiger was carrying. The tiger hesitated for a moment, but did not stop. Shen Yan then took out a charcoal pen from his bag, brushed it a few times, and drew a pattern on the surface of the shield.
Milton and the others craned their necks as they ran, but they didn't even see what it was.
"Like a sword?"
"Small, I'll let you run!" Shen Yan gritted his teeth and said, his hands tapped in the direction of the shield and the blue stripe, "Dancing Sky Shield!" Then the huge tower shield flew away with a "whoosh" and went straight to the "stalker"!
Seeing this scene, the "stalker" was also shocked! He rolls, he turns, he instantaneously, he breathes, he mutes...... In an instant, it took all the methods that could be thought of to disappear, but the big shield still flew towards him without hesitation, and then made a sharp stop above his head, and hung a foot above him steadilyβthe point is, there was a huge arrow drawn on that shield, pointing straight downβ
Uncle policeman, this is the person!
"Run, you keep running! Aha~" Shen Yan smiled like a villain who was about to get a boxed lunch.
With such a clear sign, it doesn't matter if you can't see a human figure! The tiger swiped his axe, Milton assumed a charging pose, Omar disappeared directly, and Catherine shot out a bag of arrows with a "swish" that she couldn't even see clearly! The arrows sealed the escape angles of the shield from the top and bottom, left and right, which was the instinct of a battle shooter.
The "Stalker" was clearly not incompetent, and his choice was just as unexpected - first grabbing the shield hanging overhead, and sideways blocking Catherine's relentless rain of arrows. Then he threw his shield to the side and raised his hands in a thunderous voice, "I surrender!" β
β¦β¦ Milton's sword, almost shaved past his hat, severed a few strands of hair.
If he dared to speak one second later, his head would not be his.
It was a man who looked to be in his thirties or forties, with two small mustaches, and his height had finally returned to the category of a normal person, about 1.70 meters. Face...... It's not ugly! This made Shen Yan feel very annoying. He wore dozens of bits and pieces on his body, each of which was well fixed to his body. There were three backpacks, a lute, a sword, knives, a crossbow, horns pinned to his waist, and a wooden staff...... It's just a four-way dislike.
The most important thing is that he is still wearing a set of colorful clothes, which are the color of a rooster's tail, and they can't be seen when mixed with the surrounding grassland! No wonder I couldn't find this person before...... These bells and dogs are broken, are you wearing a classical abstract out-of-print auspicious suit?
"Curtis, Elle Curtis. The playwrights, novelists and wandering musicians of the Dakhla Theatre, it's a pleasure to meet you. I'm sorry, can you stop hitting me on the head? He asked, gesturing to the shield that floated over his head and hit him on the head with the edge.
"Okay." Shen Yan readily agreed. Then the shield clanged with lightning speed and slapped the face that he hated! "Whew, it's much more comfortable now." Looking at Curtis, who was smashed with a blue nose and swollen face, Shen Yan inexplicably felt a sense of happiness in his heart, and said synchronously with Penny, "Another bottle of sulfuric acid will be perfect." β
Slapped in the face, Elle Curtis is a very unscrupulous stall man, apparently accustomed to being beaten - whether it's because of a failed tracking or cheating on the bed.
"Whew, that's a lot of energy! Everyone, don't get excited, relax. I deserve it, but I really don't fight anymore, I eat with this face. If he is ruined, the audience in Dakhla must be sad. Honestly, folks, your business has nothing to do with me, I just took the money to do things, and someone hired me to keep an eye on the baron...... He's dead, so I'll have to keep an eye on you, or the other half of the money will definitely be in debt...... Actually, that's a lot of money, and the guy is very generous in his bid!
So, as you can see, I'm just a musician, da-da-da-da~ You must have heard this tune, I wrote it! I only need to make a little extra money once in a while β to fund the release of my new show β guys, you're good guys...... And girl, can we let this go like this? β
