"Not what I thought? Hey, I know if you don't feel comfortable saying it directly, but it's good to endure this little pain - women..."

Hook pursed his lips, pointed to the rum in Roddy's hand, and made a "you know" expression, "I invited you for this glass, and I forgot everything when I woke up." ”

Roddy gradually recovered from his half-choked state, and when he saw that Hook had decided something, he was helpless in his heart - but after such a toss, the original depressed mood also improved a little, at least he could feel that his attention had been distracted, and his chest did not feel so stuffy.

"After so many years of life, there have been many unfortunate things, and there is nothing that cannot be overcome."

There are also advantages to low emotional intelligence, but it is difficult to really be affected by negative emotions for too long. In addition, he really didn't become like this because of any "emotional injury", in the final analysis, he just felt uncomfortable to sell.

Besides, this day is not without good things, Roddy took a sip of rum, and after the hot liquor flowed down his throat, the scene in front of him seemed to become a little blurred, and he whispered out the "prestige column", and the word "respect" on the "Rosicrucifix" column was impressive...

The prestige had reached such a point that Roddy was ahead of the curve at the level of the original player - and this afternoon, he had picked up everything he might need in the city's arsenal.

The biggest takeaway was the "fine compound short bow".

Although the bow used in the calibration level 10 is only the green prefix of "excellent", the damage is twice as high as the B-level short bow that he made, and the arrow speed is even faster, so it can be said that when he is promoted to level 10 and takes this bow, he has enough threat to some low-level advanced professions, and even under certain conditions, he can kill advanced professions within level 6 in seconds

In addition to this bow, Roddy was also pleasantly surprised to find that the arsenal had opened up "rare items" with a refresh time limit to himself... In the past, in the game, such things were only available when they were purchased for the first time, and they may only appear again every few months or even half a year in the future, and Roddy, as the only "player" in this world, it is reasonable to buy "rare items" in 6B at this time.

To Roddy's excitement, he bought four dozen "calibrated arrows" and one "burst arrow"

Those who don't know archery don't know the importance of arrows, and most people just think that a good bow is enough - but an "expert" like Nata, who eats with a bow and arrow, will have a high mountain mood after seeing Roddy's two arrows.

Excellent arrows not only have stable performance, arrow speed and power will be much stronger than ordinary arrows, and even have the effect of "armor breaking" or even "demon breaking", and the arrows used by Luo Di in the past are all shoddy things made by small border workshops. If it weren't for his good archery skills, such arrows would actually have quite limited lethality.

Although the price of the new arrows is scary, if you compare it with the arrows originally used by Roddy, it is definitely worth the price, and the rare "blue" prefix "Burst Arrow" that can be worth the price of four dozen "calibrated arrows" can ⊥ Roddy pose a threat to high-level advanced classes in one hit

If the average damage of the previous arrows was about 8, then after changing this set of bows and arrows, the average damage of Roddy can skyrocket to more than 20, and if you change the "Burst Arrow", even if you don't have a critical hit, the normal damage can exceed 400

This can definitely be called a "shotgun for gun".

Not only is the equipment updated, but after handing in the "Fall of Priest Nirda" task, his experience points can already be around /60 points left after reaching level 10, which is about 2% away from level ll - for Roddy, who is currently suffering from a shoulder injury and is difficult to open a bow, at this time, directly upgrading to blood can not only change clothes but also restore combat effectiveness, which can be considered.

Thinking of this, Roddy's mood was much better, and he quickly cleared his mind, pondering the only thing to do next: to kill Francis.

Kill him, and he and the scouts of Nolan Village will no longer be threatened, and when the time comes, he will fly away directly, and he will no longer be threatened by the Bishop of Rausch, and he will never have to see the face of the duke's daughter again

He was not interested in the Duke of Angmar at all, and what the old man did with his son was his own business, and he wanted to kill Francis, which no one could stop - but when he thought of the "advanced profession", those thoughts about the INBAK industry came to mind at this time...

Just as he was thinking about it, Hook in front of him stretched out his hand and shook it in front of his eyes, and asked, "What do you think?" You're drinking too badly, so you're confused? ”

"Oh, thinking about things."

"What do you think, there are women all over the place, you can find another one at any time, you see, I think it's good to be the daughter of the Hansen family at the door-"

Luo Di rubbed his eyebrows, he really didn't expect the bearded Hook to still have the thoughts of the old month, Yu coughed twice, and wanted to shirk it, but as if he remembered something, he changed his tone and whispered: "Actually... I have a girlfriend

When he said this, he could feel that his face was a little panicked, but in order to prevent Hook from gossiping like this, Roddy still stubbornly continued: "But... She wasn't in Ivota territory. ”

"Bards are very romantic, who knows which one you are talking about?" Hook pursed his lips and took his glass as he drank and asked, "Oh—does she live far away?" ”

"Walk southeast from here... More than a thousand kilometers. ”

"Poof—"

Hook choked on a sip of wine into his nose and then squirted out almost all the ale he had just drunk

In the eyes of modern people, such a distance is not far, and it is only a matter of a few hours by high-speed train, even if you drive, you can reach it in a day and a night - but in this extremely primitive medieval society, such a distance sounds like a "moat".

In other words, the people on Hollier City 99 will never have the opportunity to go so far in their lives. In the Anthropocene world, where "forests surround cities", "travel" is not a romantic word at all, and the dangers contained in the forests along the way are enough to deter most people.

So for Roddy's answer, Hook only felt ridiculous at first, and was directly choked half to death by the wine, and only gasped and said after recovering his strength: "This joke is not funny. ”

Roddy lowered his head and coughed twice, Hook naturally didn't know that the "girlfriend" in his mouth didn't know him at all.

Quietly holding the rum, Roddy thought about the little wizard in his memory a little distractedly, and sighed after a long time - although he wanted to find her, the distance was indeed too far, and there were many dangerous areas in the middle that he could not break through now...

I'm afraid I won't have any hope until the advanced class level has passed level 20, right?

Seeing that he was in a daze, Hook stopped saying nothing more, and instead chatted with the other people who had come to buy wine.

Time passed like this, and it didn't take long for the five adventurers to come down to eat, Luo Di and the other party didn't look up and look down in the past few days, which can be regarded as "acquaintance", nodding is a hello, the other party often listens to him tell stories, and at this time he also nodded in response amicably, and then they didn't see each other, and the group sat on the table next to them to eat.

Roddy turned his back to find Hook to pour a glass of water, but when he looked up, he found him staring into the distance.

"What's wrong?"

"Hmph, it's Francis's guy again, he's been wandering around this area all these days," Hook squinted, as if he didn't want to see the guy who had just entered the door, "I was told to pay attention to some scout with bows and arrows some time ago, and I was annoyed enough to come and ask this and that every day." It's better now, go into my tavern and talk to the guests without saying hello, these people are really getting more and more ignorant of the rules..."

Because they were already familiar with each other these days, Hook was not on the guard of his earlier words—of course, he would never have known that the "scout with a bow and arrow" was looking at him strangely in front of him

However, Roddy didn't think he could be exposed, he was just wondering: Francis failed to assassinate Sally, and now he has sent someone to ask for help from Rosicrucius's nemesis? Could it be that they are planning to assassinate Sally?

Direct raid on the monastery?

At this point, Luo Di remembered what happened today, and suddenly his mood cooled - heh, what do you love and what to do, Lao Tzu is too lazy to care.

"Who cares what he wants, Lao Tzu is not interested." Hook was also bored, and said casually: "I heard that there is an overseer coming to Hollier City around the fifteenth, hey, my business will be better by then."

Roddy caught the information, suddenly tilted his head, and asked casually, "Oh?" For what? ”

"Every time this kind of character comes to Hollier, the monastery will go out en masse, and all nuns and priests will go to the square to do some kind of ceremony, and with the bishop of Nadu, there will also be a group of believers from other places, and many of those people will come to stay in a big hotel, so they will come to stay with me - if you continue to stay and tell a few more stories, my business here will probably be better..."

Hook was immersed in the fantasies, but did not notice the deepening of Roddy's gaze, he took the new ale and asked, "So—will that Earl Francis also be there?" ”

"All the nobles have to be present, but the old Duke of Angmar doesn't know if Lu Dao will be there this year, he seems to have shirked due to illness three years ago."

"It should be quite lively, right?"

"Yes, every time."

Roddy maintained a proper interest and chatted with Hook without missing a beat, but his eyes noticed that Francis's men had spoken a few words to the Rosicrucians and then left, as if they were a little unhappy.

By the time he returned to his room, Roddy had already had a plan in mind to deal with Francis.
