Volume 1 - Showers Chapter 91: Showers (2)
"Let me think! Let me think! Michael patted his head with his left hand and tapped his right index finger on the table. After about a quarter of an hour, he ordered: "Joseph, Spado has not recovered from his injuries, and the news in the current territory needs to be delivered by brave and resourceful people, and I think it is very appropriate for you to go." You have the experience of a mercenary, disguise yourself as a mercenary and take the path, bypassing the clover ranch to Falkenridge, and be sure to report the information in your current territory to Lord Slava, especially about the collusion between the Elephant Summoner Brand and Gagett - this will help the Lord to gain an absolute advantage over the old Gage thief in the regular meeting. ”
"Good! I'm going to go! Joseph took up the big axe that stood by the wall and was about to leave.
"Wait!" Michael stopped Joseph's actions. "What? Don't worry, I'll bring the information to the adults. Joseph waved his hand.
"Joseph, take this!" I saw Michael take out a small bottle, and in the bottle was a few smiling flower-backed spiders, those little things waved eight legs, and the two chelicerae were bent, as if they were ready to hunt at any time.
When Joseph saw this thing, he immediately became nervous, and he couldn't even speak: "Michael! I, I, I, I warn you, don't think, take this thing away. ”
Michael pouted, opened the cap of the bottle without healing, and with a flick of his wand, a little creature jumped on Michael's palm, and then he screwed the cap and put the bottle back in his pocket.
"No!" Joseph rejected at first, but now he refuses even more strongly. "Don't dream, Michael, I tell you firmly: no! Absolutely—no! Totally—no! ”
"God, Joseph, be brave, for the sake of Slava, you know, I have to make sure that the information is brought." Michael persuaded.
"Alright! All right! But I'm telling you, Michael, it's the last time! This is really the last time! Joseph gestured to Michael with a middle finger. Michael shrugged his shoulders and didn't care, instead holding his wand to his temple and pulling out a trail of smoke.
"Oh, Michael, I'm sure again, this is indeed a male smiley flowerback spider, right? I want to come back alive, are you sure it's a male? Joseph swallowed and asked cautiously.
"Yes, Joseph, I can assure you that these smiling spiders are male and have no fangs. You see, they're all big, aren't they? The female smiley spider is more than twice as small as these, and you can see that they don't have fangs, can you? Come, reach out. Michael furrowed his brow upwards and pouted.
"Well, yes, but maybe they've hidden their fangs? Are you really sure? Joseph still hesitated.
"I say, Joseph! Isn't it the Spider Messenger? I haven't seen it yet, you're a coward! Advisor Donawan, why don't I send the information. Kyurem scoffed.
"What! Who do you say is a coward? I'm telling you! Kyurem, I... Yes! ~~~" As Joseph spoke, Michael waved his wand and channeled the wisp of green smoke into the little one's body, and then directed it to bite Joseph's finger.
"Michael! I'm not done with you! You said it in advance! Yes!!! It hurts Lao Tzu to death! Joseph screamed in pain until the little guy slowly melted from Joseph's bitten fingertips into a puddle of turquoise liquid that melted into Joseph's blood.
"Oh, dear Joseph, it will only hurt more if you tell you in advance, I promise, but you can try the female spider if you have a chance, I promise it doesn't hurt - of course, I haven't tried it anyway, and I'm not a hugger." Michael quipped.
"Humph!" Joseph turned his back and intervened angrily.
"Alright, Joseph, I'll arrange for the rest of the staff. First of all, Kyurem and the others will help defend the Mustache Bunker after Spador recovers, no matter what happens elsewhere, you two must defend the Mustache Fort, and the Mustache Bunker must not go any way. When Michael finished speaking, Kirem nodded.
"Kyurem, send the most powerful blue-speed dragoons of the Steelbeard Fort, and tell the enemy's movements to the logging fortress, Qingxi Town, Longtalon Fort, and Anthony stationed in the furry collar tun, I believe that Anthony will have his own judgment - that child is something I have grown up watching, and the ability to fight still doesn't need us old fellows to worry about. As for me, I'll have to go to Neverwinter to stop it, or we'll be finished. I'm strongly worried that Bland's slut is in Winterfall, and I'm going to kill her this time. ”

Joseph's Guru Intelligence Requested (2) - Excerpt from Andy Bathilda's "The Kingdom of China":
Residence Shikak:
The lawn of the reunion is a huge empty palace full of pits, and a bonfire burns brightly, marking this as the traditional residence of the Guru. Shikak is not a neutral zone for the Gruul tribes, and with no truce, old grudges can quickly turn into bloody battles. However, the Gruul tribe regularly gathers from all corners of Aisha to Shikak. The fat boar is put on the grill and the wonderful wrestling begins, and here the Guru finds something akin to camaraderie.
Each district has squatters and street gangsters from the Guru tribe. However, more Gruul tribesmen live in unneighbouring wilderness areas located outside of the city. The rubble area is filled with a large number of abandoned buildings; temporary shanty towns; and an eerie, scattered, destructive aura. The rubble district "The Belt" is surrounded by civilized areas of other cities; Many nations and powers have also often tried to occupy or exterminate these regions, which has led to endless conflict for the uncivilized Gruul tribes.
Lochov Festival:
No government holidays. The Guru tribe apparently observed very few traditions, but they loved to celebrate the Lochov festival, an informal, multi-day festival on an unspecified date, rioting, feasting, looting, and vandalism.
Simic scholars point out that the Lochov festival was a tribute to the Guru's anti-intellectualist principle, and that the Guru was intoxicated by the Guru's precept of eradicating all unnatural things that were the basis of urban life.
