Chapter 41: The Pit Daddy's Reward
At this time, Baron was like a cold-blooded and ruthless demon, sneering all the time, and his eyes were full of madness.
Fan Kang had the illusion that there was a bloodthirsty beast in Baron's body. He has no feelings, no reason, and all he wants is dripping blood......
From beginning to end, Balon ignored the orc's pleading, and very calmly sliced off the orc's body piece by piece. The bloody degree of the scene made Fan Kang, a battle-hardened killer, a little unbearable.
But Fan Kang didn't stop it. He knew that Baron needed to vent.
When the last pitiful bit of health of the orcs was gone, Baron finally stopped what he was doing and looked at Fan Kang, and his serious madness subsided a lot.
"I'm sorry, I'm getting a little impulsive."
Fan Kang sighed. "Why bother? He's just a handyman. ”
Baron was silent.
Half-orcs just do chores? This sentence probably can't be wrong. Baron knew that on the outskirts of the Ruolan Forest, the Minotaur was the overlord. Although Baron didn't know why the Minotaur would send orcs to slaughter the village. Subconsciously, Baron had already decided that the minotaur was the real culprit.
But he couldn't help it! In any case, the orcs were the most direct cause of the villagers' deaths. Thinking of the concerned faces of the villagers, the blood in Baron's body could not be calmed.
After a long time, Baron spoke slowly. "You're right, he's just a handyman, and I don't have enough to do."
Fan Kang smiled. "There's no rush to this. What is the condition of your injuries? ”
Baron then looked at the mace spikes on his body, and said nonchalantly. "I can't die, just pick out this thorn and bandage it later. The recovery ability of our ghost hand patients is much stronger than that of ordinary people. ”
"Then let's take a rest first, if it goes well, maybe we can have two more helpers."
"By the way, you shouldn't have come from the Elwyn Line. And you seem to want to kill the monsters here, too? Baron found a place and sat down, pulling out the spikes that had sunk into the flesh while chatting nonchalantly with Fan Kang.
"Yes, I'll tell you the truth, I've been entrusted with gathering some information about the wolf—"
Fan Kang wouldn't say he had to kill the Minotaur. If he really said that, wouldn't it be tantamount to telling Baron that Fan Kang was using him?
Perhaps it was Baron's rough fate and the fact that he had already suffered too much, which made this seemingly weak young man unusually strong-willed, far more than comparable to others. In the process of pulling out the spikes, Baron was stunned.
Fan Kang, on the other hand, quietly obtains the key dropped by the orcs. Because he was used to seeing strange things like monsters disappearing directly after they died, Baron didn't make a fuss about it now.
It is worth mentioning that judging from the battle that crushed the dwarf pitchers all the way just now, Fan Kang also came up with another rule in the free field. Any monster that was directly killed by Baron in an instant, Fan Kang would not be able to obtain the ownership of the key. In other words, these monsters do not drop kill rewards when they die.
However, for those small fish and shrimp, Fan Kang doesn't care at all, it's just a few gold coins in the sky, unlike the key dropped by the small boss in Fan Kang's hand right now.
Speaking of the key dropped by this little boss, Fan Kang couldn't help but look forward to it, and chose to open it as soon as possible.
"You got 400 gold ......"
"You have obtained 2 C-Rank Prop Bombs......"
"You have obtained some ...... of high gunpowder"
The bomb Fan Kang has been obtained before, and its specific attributes are also familiar to him. As for the high gunpowder, which is not used with obvious level props, Fan Kang is a little curious.
High gunpowder: It must be ignited with an open flame and must be used once.
When ignited, it can create a high-temperature flame within a 1 meter radius, dealing 80 damage per second to group enemies for 5 seconds. Enemies scalded by the flames have a chance to enter a scorching state, dealing 100 damage per second. The burn duration decreases as the enemy grows stronger.
Note: This item cannot be exchanged for gold and cannot be taken out of the world. Does not work on traversers.
At this moment, Fan Kang couldn't cry or laugh. Kill a small boss, and only then do you get such a click-kill reward?
Although the damage of high gunpowder is good, it needs to be ignited with an open flame, which greatly limits the convenience of combat. Just imagine, if you fight to the death with someone, you can't suddenly stop and say let me light a fire first, right?
And gunpowder is a powdery object that cannot be thrown. In other words, unless the enemy's movement is restricted, the damage dealt is limited.
Fan Kang couldn't help but sigh secretly. "What a reward for cheating!"
"Baron, what are your chances of winning against the Minotaur?"
Baron tilted his head and thought for a moment. "I haven't faced him head-to-head, but I guess it's going to be very difficult to win."
"Are you still going to kill the Minotaur?"
Baron clenched his fists and said firmly. "Of course. But are you really going to take this risk with me? ”
Fan Kang smiled brightly.
"Of course, if you decide to go, I'll definitely help. We're friends......"
Ba solemnly nodded solemnly and did not speak again, with a strange look in his eyes.
For the first time, Baron felt that it was a good feeling to have friends.
…………
After an hour's rest, Baron and Fan Kang began to walk through the forest again.
After only a few moments, the wounds on Baron's body were no longer serious. The speed with which his wound recovered was that even Fan Kang, who was a traverser, was amazed. I have to admit that the ghost hand may not have brought all the calamity to Baron.
As long as Balon can restrain himself and not use the power of his ghost hand frequently, Fan Kang believes that this young man will become a skilled swordsman sooner or later!
"Brother Fan, you said that you haven't been to Ruolan Zhisen before, so how do you know the whereabouts of the Minotaur?" Baron couldn't help but ask.
Unconsciously, Baron's address to Fan Kang has also changed.
"I really don't know." As he spoke, Fan Kang pointed to the group of dwarven pitchers in front of him. "But they do. We slaughtered the orcs, and they couldn't find them after looking for a long time, so of course they had to go back and report to the minotaur. ”
Baron smiled. "Brother Fan, you really have a way."
What kind of solution is this? Fan Kangdu was about to be embarrassed by Baron's praise.
"Baron, your fighting talent is truly impeccable, both in strength and reflexes, you are outstanding. But you have to remember that there are many things in this world that cannot be solved by force alone. Sometimes a moment of thought gives you a better chance of survival. ”
"Well, got it. By the way, Brother Fan, I have a question I've always wanted to ask you. I just said that the orcs were attracted by my ghost hand. How did you come up with the idea that Captain Wu used the villagers as bait in order to carry the gold? ”
"Before I arrived, I met a deserter and heard the news of the breakdown of your defenders. Originally, I didn't think much of it, but then I felt strange when I heard you say that you Captain put the blame for the orc attack on your ghost.
You think, you've been here for a while, too. If the orc is really attracted by your ghost hand breath, then why didn't he come early or late, but today? So I surmised that you captains were lying.
If I'm not mistaken, you, the commanders, will put the blame on you, and in addition to giving the soldiers an excuse to flee in order to cause panic, they also want you to feel guilty. That way, you'll be killing monsters like crazy for revenge, and you'll even be able to buy them time to escape! ”
"These bastards ......," the anger flashed in Baron's eyes. Brother Fan, thanks to you this time, otherwise I would have been kept in the dark. ”
"In this world, the most terrifying thing is not monsters, but human hearts! As long as you live for a day, you should never trust anyone, because you don't know which day he will betray you! ”
Baron laughed. "Can't even you believe it?"
"Can't believe it!" Fan Kang said very seriously.
