Chapter 58: Arauna

Chapter 58: Arauna

Isn't it going to be done to her again...... Ye Ci looked at the white light flowing down from the top of his head, and subconsciously smiled bitterly, what kind of curse is it this time?

The dazzling light lasted for about a few dozen seconds before disappearing, and at this point the system said: You have learned the Doro language.

It's a game! I learned a new language all at once! How can there be no such good thing in real life? In reality, Ye Ci is a person who is not very talented in language, except for the ability to speak, the only thing he can barely speak is English, so he expressed envy and jealousy for the way he quickly learned a new language in the game, if only this could be done in reality.

"All right, White Elf, if you want to buy the harp, you can tell Baal. If you have anything else, you can come to me in the village hall. Darufar handed the leaf to the young man, and then turned and left the animal skin tent.

Ye Ci saluted at his back, whether it was sincere or fake, now it was on someone else's territory, and it was a matter of course to show respect for someone else's boss.

Obviously, Ye Ci's politeness made Baal very satisfied, and he smiled at Ye Ci and said, "White Elf, do you want to buy a piano?" ”。

"Yes. Dear Mr. Baal. Ye Ci nodded, she looked at the wall behind Baal and there were all kinds of musical instruments, each of which was well-made, and she knew that it was a good thing at a glance.

"Okay, you can pick all the instruments in here." Baal opened a trading interface for Ye Ci, on which all kinds of musical instruments were placed, and Ye Ci didn't know which instrument to choose for a while.

Baal looked at Ye Ci's somewhat distressed look, smiled and asked: "White Elf, it seems that you are in trouble when choosing an instrument, this happens to be my strength, if you are not at ease, you might as well tell me and let me solve your worries." ”

Ye Ci looked at Baal's simple and sincere appearance, so he nodded: "Dear Mr. Baal, I chose the instrument for a mermaid, she uses a harp, but there are so many harps here, I don't know which one to choose, I don't know if you have any good suggestions?" ”

When Baal heard Ye Ci's words, he tilted his head and thought for a while before saying, "Does that mermaid have a blue tail and blond hair, and speak very strangely?" ”

Ye Ci nodded hurriedly, it seems that the mermaid has a great reputation, and even the people of the Doro tribe on the mountain know her virtue.

"Oh, she's Leah, but she's a regular customer in our shop." Baal smiled: "This guy doesn't know what's going on, he often breaks his harp, but fortunately he doesn't blame us for this, if we say that our piano is not of good quality because of this, we are really wronged." Baal said as he flipped through the trading interface, and soon turned to the last page, pointed to a golden harp and said, "This is the one Leah needs, and she buys this one every time, so you can just buy this one and give it to her." ”

Ye Ci looked at the harp, and it was exactly the same as the one she had in her hand when she met Leah just now, shining brightly and very beautiful. Ye Ci looked at the money in the package, although he didn't know the price of this piano, but the money on his body should be enough to pay. "Okay, honorable Mr. Baal, how much does this money cost, I bought it."

"This harp isn't cheap, it needs twenty pieces of ancient emerald ore in exchange." Baal looked at the piano and still looked at Ye Ci with a smile, but his answer made Ye Ci frown: "What did you say?" Twenty pieces of what? ”

"Ancient emerald ore." Baal nodded.

"Don't you take money?". Ye Ci blinked.

"What money?"

"This is it." Ye Ci took out a gold coin from his pocket and put it in Baal's hand.

Baal took the gold coin and flipped it over and looked at it for a long time, then put it in his mouth and bit it, and finally returned it to Ye Ci with great regret: "What is this?" What can this stuff be used for? ”

This can be regarded as a dumb fire to ask Ye Ci, what is this? This is the gold in circulation in the game! As long as there is this thing, all continents can walk sideways. Why can't you get here? Ye Ci was a little incredulous: "Mr. Baal, are you saying that this thing is useless to you?" ”。

Baal spread his hands and said slowly, "Of course it's useless, White Elf, is this thing useful to you?" ”。

Ye Ci was silent. Well, this is a primitive tribe, this is closed, the currency circulation here is not the same as outside, but who can tell her, what should she do now? After thinking for a while, Ye Ci nodded at Baal: "Okay, Mr. Baal, I think I have to go to Mr. Darufar in advance, and we'll see you later." ”

Baal nodded at Ye Ci, who bowed and left the animal skin tent and walked towards the huge tent in the village. As she walked, she couldn't help but sigh, she said, this task is not so simple, if it's just an errand, isn't it a bit too fuss to be released by an NPC above level one hundred and twenty, and it took a long time to get it, and it turned out that the difficulty was in this place.

Soon, Ye Ci walked into Darufar's tent, saluted him and greeted him for a while, Ye Ci went straight to the topic: "Mr. Darufar, is there no way for the gold coins of the Maga Continent to circulate in the tribe?" ”。

"Of course, we never interact with foreign races, we only communicate with merfolk, and merfolk do not use the currency of the Maga continent, and the gold coins in your hand are of course useless to us." Darufar took it for granted, not thinking it was a big deal at all.

Ye Ci sighed, it seems that if she wants to get this piano, the first thing she has to do is to get some of their currency first. "So, Mr. Darufar, what is your currency here? Is it that ancient emerald ore? ”。

"Ancient emerald ore is just one of them, to be precise, the currency we have circulating here is ancient ore. The most common is the Ancient Blood Red Ore, where a hundred Ancient Blood Red Ore can be exchanged for an Ancient Aquamarine Ore, and a hundred Ancient Aquamarine Ore can be exchanged for an Ancient Golden Yellow Ore, and a hundred Ancient Golden Yellow Ore can be exchanged for an Ancient Emerald Green Ore. Darufar gave Ye Ci a detailed introduction to the monetary policy of the Doro people.

However, this introduction, Ye Ci felt that his head was buzzing. No, this kind of thing is not easy to get when you hear it, and if you get it all, it will be the Year of the Monkey.

After thinking for a while, he exhaled, there is no way to think like this now, in order to be able to leave this place, it is better to focus on the small things, and get twenty pieces of ancient emerald ore quickly. She then asked Darufar, "So where am I going to get these ores?" ”

"You have two ways to get these things, but both go deep into the base of Breda Volcano. The first is to mine there, you will dig these ores, if you are lucky, you can get ancient emerald ores, and the other way is to go into the pitch-black caverns at the bottom of the Bureda volcano, there are a lot of magma people, as long as you defeat them, you can also get these ores. Darufar smiled and explained to Ye Ci: "By the way, I have a mine hoe here, I think you should be able to use it." ”

Ye Ci took the mine hoe handed over by Darufar, and only felt as if she had been tricked into a trap step by step, this feeling was really bad, how did she feel as if she had become a coolie when she got here.

However, despite this, Ye Ci still had to endure it silently, who called her a player, and the other party was a high-IQ NPC? It's not fair in the first place.

"Go to the south of the village and find a man named Nober, who is the general of our Doro tribe, and he will take you to the bottom of the Breda volcano." After Darufar explained this, he stopped talking to Ye Ci, and it seemed that Ye Ci and he would not trigger any dialogue for the time being. So Ye Zi saluted him, then withdrew from Darufar's tent, and walked towards Nob.

Nober was a taller man than the average Doror, and his clothes were a little more ornate than the average Doror, with a few necklaces of beast teeth around his neck and a sharp spear in his hand. There are many scars on his naked body, and it can be seen that this is a brave warrior who has fought many times for the safety of the tribe. Ye Ci found him and explained to him his intentions, and Nobo was very enthusiastic and agreed to find someone to take Ye Ci to the bottom of the Breda volcano.

"White Elf, it's not so easy to get to the bottom of Bureda Volcano, the road there is too complicated, I wonder if you want to hire one of my people as your guide?" Nobo looks simple, but he is very clever about the way to make money, he looked at Ye Ci and said with a smile.

It is of course best to have a mercenary in such a place that has never been before, not only to avoid a lot of detours, but also to give yourself some help in times of crisis. It's just that Ye Ci doesn't seem to have a way to hire now, and she shook her head regretfully: "Nobo, I don't have an ancient ore, not even an ancient blood red ore, but I can't afford to hire any mercenaries, I'm really sorry." ”

When Nobo heard Ye Ci say this, he frowned, looking a little regretful: "That's it, that's really a pity." He paused, looked at the guards behind him, and suddenly his eyes lit up and said: "Ah, white elf, you are our guest, and the patriarch introduced you, if it is too raw to just talk about ore, it is better to do this, I will appoint someone to be your mercenary, and wait until you have a harvest, how about paying?" ”

Will there be such a good thing? Ye Cicai didn't believe it, how could there be such a pie-in-the-sky good thing in the world, and there was definitely some purpose for this Nobo to do this. However, Ye Ci narrowed her eyes and did not refuse immediately, she wanted to see what Nobo was doing this for. So, she behaved embarrassedly: "How embarrassing is this, I have received very good care from Mr. Darufar, if so, wouldn't it seem very immoral?" ”

"It's okay, it's okay, White Elf, we Dora people are the most hospitable, and it is also what we should do to solve your difficulties for you." Nobo laughed heartily, he beckoned, and soon someone walked up to Ye Ci with a thin and somewhat sick Doro boy, he pointed to the boy and said to Ye Ci: "White Elf, don't look at him small, his legs and feet can be very dexterous, leading the way is not a problem, and his price is very cheap, only fifty ancient blood red ore a day." ”

Ye Ci looked at the Doro boy, his complexion was slightly pale, his hair was not shiny, his body was even thinner, and he was not very old, according to the standards of the Doro people, he looked like a sick man at all, and he was terminally ill. In the standard of the Dora people who advocate force and strength, this child must be unqualified, even a burden, Ye Ci doesn't know why this boy is in Nober's guard, but, from Nobo's meaning, he doesn't like this boy very much, and even wants to deal with this burden.

The Dora boy was holding a wooden stick in his hand, and his arms were a little thinner than the elves who had always been known for their slenderness, and he even swayed slightly when he stood there, Ye Ci was really afraid that he would fall down and not be able to get up at once. Seeing this, Ye Ci was also a little embarrassed, taking this child to the bottom of the volcano in Breda is a good thing or a bad thing? If this child dies on the way, will she be responsible?

Nobo seemed to see Ye Ci's thoughts, and he smiled and said, "The least fearful thing for us Dora is death, and if we die in battle, it is our glory, just like Kuta." ”

Ye Ci glanced at Nobo again, and secretly sneered in his heart, this guy seems to be very kind, but he is not a good person. On the one hand, it was implied that Ye Ci didn't matter if the boy died, but on the other hand, he told Ye Ci that if the boy didn't die, she would have to pay the rent. This is really a bargain at both ends, if Ye Ci takes away this boy, if he dies, he will solve the drag, and if he doesn't die, he can make a little money, who doesn't want to do this kind of thing?

Facing Ye Ci's gaze, Nobo did not hide at all, in the Doro tribe, strength is the best right to speak, and those who do not have strength are waste, and according to the rules of the game, the end of waste is death. So, he didn't think he was doing anything wrong at all.

The Dora boy raised his hanging head and looked at Ye Ci, his face was pale and his breath was short, and he looked like he was really going to die. However, in his gaze, Ye Ci saw a kind of tenacity and unyieldingness, which was definitely not the gaze that a weak person should have. For a moment, Ye Ci's heart was not swaying, although she didn't know what would happen with this boy, but she believed that a person with such a gaze was definitely not a person who would casually bow to fate.

So, she nodded, reached out and touched the boy's head, and then turned to look at Nob and said, "Well, I hired him, what is his name?" ”

"Diro." When Nobo said this, the people around him sneered, Ye Ci squinted her eyes, although she didn't know the meaning of the name, but, she thought, this is definitely not a good idea. "White Elf, you can just call him Diro."

"Okay." Ye Ci didn't want to continue to talk to Nobo, because this guy gave Ye Ci a feeling of being too snobbish, which made her a little unhappy: "Then I'll leave." ”

"Go, White Elf, go down through the entrance over there, and with Diro to show you the way, you'll soon reach the bottom of the Breda crater." Nobo was obviously in a good mood, and pointed to the place guarded by a few guards not far away, and told Ye Ci.

Ye Ci took the Dora boy out of that opening, and after not walking for long, she saw a huge round pit, bottomless, and the gaps in the bare stones were covered with lush grass, and some rare medicinal herbs were also hidden. It looks like the Bureda volcano is really a dead volcano that hasn't erupted for so many years.

The Dora Boy was thin but walked at a decent pace, and he led Haji from an inaccessible path to the base of the volcano. Ye Ci walked behind him, looking at his thin body, and fell into deep thought, she threw a reconnaissance technique at this Dora boy, but found nothing, this boy looked ordinary. But it made Ye Ci feel a faint mystery.

"What do you mean by Diro?" Ye Ci looked at the boy's back and suddenly asked.

These words made the Dora boy's body tremble suddenly, and then his low voice revealed the frustration in his heart: "Yes, yes, the meaning of waste. ”

Ye Ci nodded, and sure enough, it was about the same as she guessed. In Destiny, each NPC has its own potential and past, and if the player can establish a good relationship with them, they can often get some secrets or benefits that others can't know. Ye Ci's understanding of the Dora people is mainly from Darufar, so it is a very official and positive thing, if she wants to get the architect of this race, I am afraid that it will be difficult to just rely on these official positive things. It's better to start from the child in front of you, maybe you can get a lot of other unknown things.

Ye Ci had already analyzed this boy just now, since he could be in Nobber's guard, it meant that he either had some skills or some background. According to common sense, the former is more likely, after all, if the boy had some background, Nob would not have taken his life and death so lightly. As for why a person with some ability is still so despised by Nobo, it is not for Ye Ci to know, but, judging from the boy's performance, he does not seem to be the waste that Nobo said, at least, he himself does not admit it.

Therefore, as long as Ye Ci does what he likes, it is still very simple to establish a good relationship with this boy.

"What's your name?"

"Diro......" The boy's voice sank deeper and deeper, like a pool of stagnant water.

"Do you think you should be called Diro?" Ye Ci looked at the boy's back quietly, and his voice was a little cold.

However, the boy did not answer Ye Ci immediately, but was silent, silent, and silent until Ye Ci felt that he might be doing something wrong, and then he suddenly said, "My name is Arauna." His voice was still small, and he seemed a little lacking.

Ye Ci hooked a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, very good, being able to answer her words means that she expected it well, this boy has a heart that does not admit defeat. As long as he doesn't admit defeat, then sooner or later he will succeed.

Ye Ci is not a talkative person, and Ya Lao has even fewer words, such two people are together, if they want to talk from the south of the world to the north of the earth, it is basically impossible. They went all the way to mining, chatting intermittently all the way, and Ye Ci finally knew about the situation in Arauna.

Arauna's father was a warrior in the tribe, but his mother was rarely in poor health, which was relatively rare among the Doras. Therefore, the burden of feeding the family fell on the shoulders of Arauna's father, who was killed in the claws of a beast in order to get more food to feed his wife and children, and the family was immediately plunged into misery. Although the Dora people have a tradition of caring for orphans and widows, they still take care of families with male children. Aruna was the male of the family, and though he was too thin to be a Doro, he was a boy after all. Darufar could not break the long-standing rules of the tribe to help the troubled family unduly, so he had to put Arauna in Nob's guard, so that he could receive a meager salary enough to support his mother.

However, Nob is a man of ability, he does not have as much mercy as Darufar, in the army, what he requires is to be brave and capable, and he is very unaccustomed to the guy who entered the army by Arauna through the back door, and Arauna really can't compare with the strength of the Doro, which makes Nob very unhappy. Although he could not disobey Darufar's order to expel Arauna from the guard, he was embarrassed and detained at every turn.

And Ye Ci's arrival just provided an opportunity for Nobo to expel Yalao, so even if he paid for it, he would take Yalao out, not to mention that if Yalao didn't die, he could earn him fifty ancient blood red ore every day, which was a good deal.

This is a rather tragic story, but Ye Ci doesn't feel sad. Because in this world, tragedies happen every day, how can there be so much thought to cry for other people's stories? What's more, Arauna himself doesn't seem to think it's a tragedy.

"Have you ever been on the battlefield?".

"You're talking about hunting?" Arauna is probably a little more familiar with Ye Ci, and he feels that this white elf is not vicious, let alone has no arrogance, and he is not so cringe when talking to her.

The Shodora people have no chance to fight with other races in this place, and the so-called battlefield is only hunting.

"I've been, and every time Nob has sent me to the front, he probably wants to die in battle." Arauna spoke of this with a relaxed and untraceable sadness: "However, my legs and feet are fast, and my luck is good, and I have been able to return to the tribe alive every time. ”

Ye Ci nodded, and from following Yalao for a while, Ye Ci could also feel that this NPC's agility was very high, at least Ye Ci's high agility didn't have to stop and wait with him.

In the huge crater of Breda Crater, there is a kind of black ore pile from top to bottom, which is very dense at the bottom of the crater, and spreads everywhere, and the further you go to the crater floor, this distribution becomes more and more rare. As the two of them go down more and more, Ye Ci will stop mining at any time, and these ore piles will produce ancient ores, of course, the most is blood red ore, followed by sea blue ore, and even less golden yellow ore, as for the emerald ore Ye Ci has not seen it at all.

Whenever Ye Ci stopped mining, Arauna stood quietly on the side and waited for Ye Ci, he looked at Ye Ci wielding the mining hoe, his eyes were quiet, without a trace of greed, as if Ye Ci was mining. Instead of digging up the currency of their tribe. Ye Ci took a breath, this time she was lucky, she actually came out with an ancient golden yellow ore, and more than a dozen ancient blood red ores, she sat down to rest. Arauna, on the other hand, stood still, looking around, like a most competent sentinel.

Ye Ci was a little strange, and she asked, "Can Yalao exchange these ores directly for something?" ”。

"Yes."

"Then why don't you dig a little too?"

Arauna shook his head: "It's not my ore, it's the tribe's ore, I can't take it, and...... It is impossible to drive this ore without a mine hoe that Lord Darufar has enchanted. ”

I see, but I can't see that this guy has his own opinions. In this case, Ye Ci no longer forced Arauna, but continued to mine.

Obviously, mining is very hard, although Ye Ci is very patient, but Ye Ci is really not interested in being a miner, and soon she doesn't want to continue to engage in this meaningless and boring work. She remembered that Darufar had said that there was another way to get the ore, so she was going to give it a try.

"Arauna, do you know about the Dark Cave?".

"Yes." Arau nodded, but he was a little surprised as to why Ye Ci would mention this place, but he still didn't ask.

"Then you can take me there." Compared to those minerals that can't move, Ye Ci still thinks that ugly monsters are actually cuter.

"What are you going to do?" Although Arauna knew that his identity was not suitable to ask this question, but after thinking for a while, he still asked.

"Of course, it's to go ore hunting." Ye Ci glanced at Arauna, he didn't know that the monsters in the pitch-black cave would drop ancient ores.

"However, the magma people there are terrible, and we will be killed!" Arauna shook his head cautiously.

Ordinary NPCs are different from players, they only have one life, and they will die if they hang up, unless there is some special resurrection technique that can revive them, otherwise, it is better to hide a little when encountering danger. Of course, Ye Ci knew about this, so she also considered Yalauna's situation, she didn't want this little boy to die, not to mention, she still had a lot of things that she hadn't heard from his mouth, so naturally she wouldn't take him to death easily. "Don't worry, you can take me to the entrance of the cave, I can deal with it myself, don't worry about other things."

"But, I'm your mercenary......"

Ye Ci still knew a lot about this little boy's stubbornness, she shook her head and rejected the little boy's proposal, and then said, "You are just my mercenary, so just obey my orders." ”

Arauna wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say it, he turned around and walked in the other direction with Ye Ci.

Since it is to deal with magma people, then it must be indispensable fire resistance elixirs, Ye Ci looked at his body, there are still many level fire kang elixirs, it is estimated that although it is a little difficult to deal with magma people, it should be enough. She didn't know how many levels of magma people there were for the time being, but as long as there were no more than eighty ordinary monsters, she could handle it.

Soon, Arauna took Ye Ci to the dark cave.

The entrance to the pitch-black cave is not very large, and it is hidden behind several huge black rocks, which is difficult to spot without someone familiar with the terrain to lead the way. There was no vegetation growing here, and there were black piles of ore everywhere, scorched marks.

"This is the dark cavern, White Elf, do you really want to go in?" Arauna looked nervous.

"Yes."

"It's terrible inside, Nobo once came here with the guards, but in the end they lost a lot of people, until now, except for Lord Darufar, we don't dare to approach here, I heard that the magma people inside are very powerful, and the magma flowing all over their bodies will roast people away." There was a little more fear in Arauna's expression, and he tried his best to render the terrifying atmosphere in the cave according to everything he knew, hoping that Ye Ci would not go in. To be honest, apart from his mother and Lord Darufar, this white elf was the kindest to him, so Arauna didn't want to see Ye Ci encounter any danger.

"Arauna, you're scared?" Ye Ci looked at Arauna with a smile.

Arauna was slightly stunned, then lowered her head and said honestly, "Yes, White Elf, I'm scared. They all said it was terrible. ”

"Do you know why people are afraid?". Ye Ci gently touched Yalaona's hair, and his voice was extremely gentle.

Arona shook her head: "I don't know. ”

"There are two reasons why people are afraid, the first is the fear of the unknown instinct, and the second is because you are too small, which is the source of your fear?" Ye Ci smiled.

Arauna raised his head and looked at Ye Ci, his eyes were exceptionally bright, as if Ye Ci's words had opened a new window for him, allowing him to see a world that he had never discovered. He thought for a moment, then said, "Are you scared then?" White Elves. ”

"No, never." Ye Ci shook his head: "Even if I know that the other party is stronger than me, I still firmly believe that I can defeat the other party." Of course, I'm talking about a situation where the disparity in power is not great, and if I were to face an opponent of Mr. Darufar's level, I would find a way to avoid a conflict with him. Do you understand what I mean? ”。

Yalau looked at Ye Ci a little strangely, and thought for a while before nodding cautiously: "I understand." ”

Ye Ci finally touched the little boy's head again: "Okay, Yalauna, you just wait for me here, I will come back safely." With that, she took her bow and arrow from her back, held it in her hand, and walked towards the dark cavern.

The pitch-black cave was indeed the same as her name, and it was pitch black inside, and it took Ye Ci a while to get used to such darkness, and slowly walked forward. According to the elf's night vision, although Ye Ci couldn't clearly observe every detail in such a dark place, it was not difficult to see clearly.

As soon as she entered the dark cave, Ye Ci felt a sultry heat spraying towards her face, although it was not much hotter than the air outside, but she could still feel that the environment inside was much worse than the outside.

The cave of the pitch-black cave is too narrow, Ye Ci originally wanted to recruit the fourth child, but in such a small cave, it is estimated that the big ass of the fourth child will not be able to pass, and the third child has not been recruited for too long, and the level is already relatively low, and there is absolutely no way to carry these monsters of UO, so Ye Ci plans to continue to walk inside, if there is a wide place inside or more suitable for recruiting the fourth child to come out, he is getting it out. Besides, I don't know what the situation is in it yet, so it's better to sneak first, so that even if there is a special situation, she will be easier to deal with.

Entering the stealth state, Ye Ci slowly advanced forward along the cave wall on the side of the cave, and as he went deeper and deeper into the cave, Ye Ci found that the temperature here was getting higher and higher, although it had not yet reached the point where it would cause damage to her body, but her sweat had been falling down from her forehead.

I don't know how long I walked, Ye Ci heard a snoring sound, she looked along the sound, and saw that there were two magma people sleeping together not far away, and this snoring sound was made by them. Not far from them, there was a magma man walking slowly.

The Magma People are not creatures made of magma, but rather creatures made of huge red-hot rocks, but some of the stones have apparently been burned by the magma, and as the Magma People keep walking, a lot of fiery red magma will drip from their bodies, and they will make a sizzling sound when they fall to the ground.

This kind of magma man is not unfamiliar to Ye Ci, after all, in the later fire dungeons, there are still many such monsters, so I didn't feel particularly nervous when I met this monster Ye Ci. That's right, the magma on this magma man will bring a lot of fire damage when it falls on a person, however, this monster is a physical attack, as long as you control his speed and let him not get close, it's quite easy to fight. Ye Ci threw a reconnaissance technique at the magma monster that was walking around, and found that this guy was seventy-five, fifteen levels higher than herself, and there should be a relatively large level punishment, but she didn't plan to recruit the fourth to come out, after all, this guy's melee damage was too high, and the fourth might not be able to withstand it.
