Chapter XLVIII
On that day, after leaving Liukrisia's room, Martin ran into the garden to be quiet, when he ran into a "person" he didn't want to meet. Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½
"Is that you?" said the elf in surprise as his long ears twitched. She was the one who wielded the twin knives of the elf captured by Martin and Canion.
Then, another agile figure sprang out of the bushes beside him, and he was the elf who had wielded the longbow at the time.
Neither side expected this meeting, and they were stunned for a while. Stand in the garden and look at each other quietly. Elves have dim vision, and Martin, though human, has the secret magic of the Starhebinsey druids, and the darkness of the night does not affect them at all.
"I saw Mr. Canion, so you have a share of the rescue operation. The unidentified druid they were talking about was you. After a few moments, it was the male elf with the longbow who spoke first.
"Yes...... It seems that the elf we rescued from the prison of the black-robed Bull is one of yours?"
"Yes, thank you for saving my compatriots. Mr. Canian has returned the weapons to us, and we will pay you a ransom shortly. Again, the longbowman replied.
"The ransom is not necessary, the conflict on the road was also due to a misunderstanding, and there is no loss......
Martin was thinking that the benefits he would get from the black-robed Bull would definitely be a lot, and he would not be short of money at the moment, so it would definitely be more important to have a good relationship with these elves, so he planned to refuse the ransom.
But the longbowman interrupted Martin's words very rudely, and said to Martin, "No need, we don't want to owe you a favor, the ransom that should be paid will be delivered early tomorrow morning." β
As soon as the words fell, the two elves turned their heads away without even saying "goodbye".
Abandoned in the garden, Martin, no matter how inexperienced he was in dealing with people, knew that things were not good.
"Probably because of the reputation of the Starch Spencer druids...... After all, in the eyes of the average person, the Starch Spencer Druids were brutal and insensitive......"
Martin, who is good at fighting with magic or martial arts, is not good at another kind of competition. So he didn't think much about it and went back to his room to rest.
Early in the morning, Canian met the elf who had paid the ransom to Martin and sensed that something was wrong.
"Did you still accept the ransom?" asked Canian as the elf left, knocking on Martin's door.
"Yes, that's right, their attitude is so resolute that I can't even refuse......"
"Well, judging from the current situation, even if you don't take it, it's useless. Looks like they're really ready to do something to Trist......"
"What, do it to Trist?" Martin was taken aback.
"That's right, although it is said that evil kills each other, and good intrigues. But in fact, there are not many things that do brutal acts for noble purposes...... Speaking of which, you don't have to worry about an anonymous person going to Triste to discuss the problem and then hammer the ice axe on his head. Generally speaking, the organizational tradition is to hold criticism meetings and mobilize the masses to fight for leaders. β
"Why is this happening?" asked Martin.
Well, although some people say that "good people fight good people is a misunderstanding", "good people should fight bad people", "bad people fight good people is exercise", "bad people fight bad people deserve it". But in fact, good people often fight good people out of so-called misunderstandings. Although in the good organization, there will be no stabbing others in the back because of money problems or something, but for the sake of power, the internal struggle is still quite fierce. It's just that they usually don't want those positions to bring them any financial benefits. Instead, I hope that after having that status, I can carry out my will. For example, the current establishment focuses on order, and procedure trumps results. And those who insist that the result trumps everything and that special means can be used if necessary want to seize power and then carry out their will...... There is also the conflict between the Destroyers and the Redeemers...... The conflict between idealists and realists ......"
"So, someone wants to take Lady Triste's place this time?" Martin concluded.
"That's right, and the actions of those elves made me guess that they would probably use you as a breakthrough. "Canion.
"Because of who I am...... Probably they'll think I'm a wolf in sheep's clothing. Martin said helplessly.
"Generally speaking, we call it a spy who broke into so-and-so. But that's not the point, the point is that you're not fit to be here now, and you need to get away for a while. β
"The outside world is complicated...... No wonder my master warned me to be careful of being shot ...... outside," Martin sighed.
"We don't mean that to you, it's not abandonment, it's protection. And for the ...... of inviting you to participate in the battle against the Black-robed Bull," Canian said.
"No need to explain, I believe you. After all, I saw you fighting on the front line with my own eyes in that battle. And I know that Lady Triste has kept her toughest enemies to herself. Martin interrupted Canian with a wave of his hand.
"I'm going to find Triste right now. β
......
When Martin met Tristhe, he noticed her tiredness that could not be concealed. It seems that for this lady, these internal struggles are also quite tiring, and perhaps more difficult for her than the black-robed Bull...... After all, Triste can't fly over on a dragon and throw magic at those who want to seize power. These internal struggles cannot be made public and violent.
When Martin briefly explains Canion's analysis to Trist, Triste agrees. Then he began to prepare the spoils that should have been distributed to Martin. She led Martin into the heavily guarded treasure trove in the temple.
Martin asked for a large number of platinum coins, the so-called platinum coins. There are many kinds of currencies on this continent. Currencies that are widely circulated can be easily converted into the "Xaar" monetary system. The standard currency on the mainland, 10 copper coins are equal to 1 standard silver coin (commonly known as silver slots). And the value of a standard silver coin is 1 cell. 100 standard silver coins equal the same gold coin (100 standard silver coins, not 10!). In addition to the standard 1 Cel worth of silver, there are also 10 Cels, 20 Cels, and 50 Cels worth of Silver Coins. However, it is generally used as the main unit of gold instead of Xal. 10 gold coins equals one platinum coin.
Tracer was a little surprised that Martin was asking for a large amount of platinum coins. Because for high-level adventurers, the value of this general equivalent is actually limited. There are some magic items that you can't buy with a lot of money, and you can get them cheaper by trading them for other magic items. This is because money in general is of limited value to high-level adventurers. In this backward world, even coins made from precious metals are often not so good.
But those were Martin's freedoms, and Tracete now had enough platinum in her hand to pay Martin happily.
In addition to platinum, Martin also asked for a lot of hard currency. For example, blocks of pure gold, Mithril. In some cases, these rare metals are much more useful than gold. For example, when dealing with dwarves. When you want to buy dwarven products, you must keep in mind that bartering is more appropriate than buying them with money. This is something that even the average adventurer knows, and they often trade ale for dwarven swords.
In addition to those precious metals, Martin also asked for various consumables such as healing wands and healing potions. On the one hand, these things can be exchanged for money, and on the other hand, they can also play a great role in supporting the battle.
Speaking of which, none of these things are cheap, but Martin's dimensional bag is also limited in size. In other words, there is still a lot worse than the value of the loot that should be distributed to Martin. It needs to be compensated with other items.
"Do you want a dragon scale armor, or a demon scale armor?" Triste suggested to Martin. She had a secret connection to the moderates of the Start Spencer Druids, and was well aware of the equipment of the Start Spencer Druids. At first, she could tell at a glance that the armor Martin was wearing was a fairly ordinary mass product among the Starch Spencer Druids.
"What? That's worth a lot more than I deserve. Martin was a little surprised.
"It doesn't matter, this can be paid from my share of the distribution of loot, even if it is a gift I give you, it can be regarded as a favor for your master. Trisette replied.
After careful consideration, Martin finally chose the dragon scale armor. It wasn't crafted from the scales of the Black-robed Bull (which was too late to make), but from some unlucky red dragon from before. The Red Dragon's scales give it the ability to increase fire resistance, and it is also equipped with a sixth-level divine art: healing. In addition to its super healing power, this sixth-level divine technique can also remove blindness, deafness, dizziness, confusion, dizziness, exhaustion, tiredness, weakness, confusion, nausea, poisoning and other negative states. It can be said that it can be reversed with one shot, and it can make the vast majority of the subjects who were dying just now get up and recover completely. This additional spell can be used once a day and will be automatically restored the next day.
In addition, the armor's own defense is excellent. It seems that Triste has fully considered Martin's needs.
Tracer was grateful for this generous gift. After accepting Martin's thanks lightly, Triste said to Martin, "I'm very guilty of letting you leave like this time, so I want to give you more in this regard...... But believe that one day, the Starch Spencer Druids will be able to walk in this temple in the open. This is your Master's wish and what I have worked for. β
Later in the day came a small farewell ceremony, and Martin waited in his room until then, fantasizing that Lyukrisia would come to confess. But it was a no-brainer.
At the farewell ceremony, Liukrisia did not make a parting kiss or anything like thatβalthough it was a small farewell ceremony, there were more than a dozen people watching! Canian told Martin his address, and said that he would return there with Liukrisha after some time, and welcome Martin as a guest at that time.

I've been playing DOTA lately, and it's taken up some time, so I'm playful.
Internet addiction war, my post made me continuously banned by the bar master, and sure enough, my combat effectiveness is amazing, hitting their sore feet.
Huga, that's probably it......
In fact, I didn't do it twice a week, and it was related to something that happened that made me very depressed. After that, I had to shift my attention and base my happiness on the suffering of the Poles - I just looked at the complaints of the military houses, such as "Stalin's wrath!", "The Polish commander personally went to confront Stalin!", "Putin's previous kneeling was to lure the snake out of the hole!" "Katyn souls, the Polish commander has come to see you personally!" "This is the benefit of twins! Speaking of which, this incident is definitely a major event in the 21st century.
Poland is a really interesting country, and the former town independence has turned them into a European version of South Korea. Legend has it that there are four countries of self-confidence. It is bordered by South Korea to the east, Georgia to the north, Poland to the west, and Gambia to the south......
I've finished writing this volume. The Black-Robed Boole Scroll has ended, and the next volume of the Northern Odyssey is about to begin. There will be LOLI and a royal sister...... There will also be a plot of workmanship, for which I will continue to read the naturalistic descriptions in the famous book......
