Chapter 291: Conversation and Appointment
In the institute, the white wolf lies in his den, waiting for his servants to bring him food.
"Since I became a god, I've become more and more lazy. Well, I'll lie down again. ”
Closing his eyes, the white wolf conjured up images of stone eggs, which had changed hands several times since they had been stolen from the red-haired Kruller. Now sold into the hands of a treacherous slave trader, he doesn't know when he will meet the right master.
While the white wolf was watching with interest the picture of the slave trader's greedy caress of stone eggs, the door of his room was suddenly opened.
The woman who came in was a woman in a white dress and black hair, a black wolf who had become human.
"Hey, I'm coming for you~"
She waved at the white wolf, then leaned against the door.
The white wolf's brow furrowed slightly.
"Don't forget to knock on the door next time you come in, find out what I'm going to do"
"Isn't it hard to come back to life, and you don't want to talk to me about what happened in the past," Lady Black Wolf cupped her cheeks.
"It's nothing more than a series of tragedies, what other good things can the God of Destruction do"
The black wolf was silent for a moment before speaking.
"You're basically right, the God of Destruction is really not a good thing, as soon as he woke up, he killed me, and then exterminated the entire fox clan, and Momiji was also poisoned. But the goblins were kept by him. ”
"I left the goblins because I didn't think this race had much intelligence and was easy to control, and when I first woke up, my body was on a bloody altar, and that altar was most likely built by the goblins, or other clans of the God of Destruction. The white wolf recalled.
"Passers-by A, B, and C were also killed by Him"
The white wolf asked.
"Only Passerby A escaped with a small group of goblins and founded a tribe far away, although he was seriously injured at the time, and it is estimated that he did not live long. However, that tribe has developed quite well, and has become a major overlord of the underworld. ”
The black wolf observed the white wolf's expression, and she expected to see the surprise in her eyes. After all, this goblin tribe can be regarded as the one pulled by their two wolves, and it can stay at this time, and the development is not bad. This is not a big news for them.
"I feel that after I was resurrected, the white wolf was depressed a lot, because I lost the purpose of life, no, I have to make him happy. As a bosom friend, this is my right, responsibility. The black wolf thought to himself.
Sure enough, as she expected, the white wolf's eyes lit up, and his mood became less depressed.
"Really? I don't know where that tribe is. ”
The white wolf asked, thoughtful at the same time.
She deliberately told me this good news, whether she wanted to make me happy, or not to think about it, the so-called three major illusions of life. I can't overdo it. ”
"I don't know, after all, I was the first to hang up. There was only a vague sense of these things, and this was with the help of the power of the God of Destruction, and he didn't care about the little goblin tribe. Otherwise, it should be easy to extinguish. ”
The black wolf shook his head, leaning his back against the doorframe.
"Then again, why don't you come and sit on my side of the cushion, it's still quite soft. The white wolf looked at the black wolf lady suspiciously.
"The soul is light.,I'm going to wrestle with this body in two steps, okay? Who would dare to walk up to you and sit. The black wolf didn't dare to say this, but smiled embarrassedly.
The white wolf was stunned for a second, and also saw her embarrassment, and his mind moved slightly, mobilizing the power of rules to affect matter.
The doorframe near the black wolf squirmed, and a chair came out of it.
"I haven't seen you for many years, but you're a lot stronger. For example, this hand, I can't understand it at all. The black wolf sighed, having lost her godhead, she could no longer perceive the rules of destruction that were everywhere and spread throughout the world. Now it's just an ordinary person with a body and soul.
"It's just a simple application of the rules of the world. The white wolf replied, in fact, his understanding of these new powers of his own did not have a deep understanding. But he knew it well that he had already roughly explained it. The key to returning to the original world is contained in these rules.
Give him another three years, and when the fox clan reproduces again, it will be almost the time for him to explain the rules and find a way to return home.
"Black wolf... I don't know what you have planned for the future."
"First of all, give me a name, I was once a black wolf, but it wasn't my name. ”
Unexpectedly, the black wolf wanted a name, and the white wolf wagged his tail. Think about it with interest.
"How's Alice?"
The white wolf picked a more western-real name for her.
"What does the name Alice mean?"
The black wolf asked curiously.
"No, no, forget it. It's not a good name, I'll think again. The white wolf retracted his suggestion. God, he really didn't know what Alice meant.
After thinking of a dozen words, the white wolf felt bad. It wasn't until a few minutes later that he finally found a name for the black wolf from his scarce vocabulary.
"Yemei, what's the name?"
The night is the night of the night, and the rose is the rose of the rose. The night describes the past of the black wolf, a mysterious and terrifying black giant wolf. And the rose indicates that she is now a charming and beautiful lady.
"Uh-huh!!That's it!" After the white wolf explained the meaning of the name to the black wolf, she immediately nodded like a chicken pecking rice, as if she was afraid that the white wolf would not agree, and it could be seen that she liked the name quite much.
"Then, Lady Nightrose," the white wolf called.
"Hey, lady or something, you just call me Yemei, by the way, I don't know your name white wolf, I've always been called white wolf and white wolf. I didn't ask about it. ”
"Just call me the White Wolf. I like the name. ”
The white wolf found that he couldn't remember his name before the crossing, but it didn't matter. Whether it's before or after the crossing, he's who he is, and doesn't change with his name or race.
"Yemei, I don't know what you have plans for the future?"
Yemei thought for a moment, shook her head, and replied.
"No, I don't. Originally, my purpose in life was to kill all human beings, but now, I don't want to kill anymore, I just want to live carefree. I can always be with you if you want. ”
After saying this, her cheeks actually flushed slightly, and she hung her head and stared at the ground.
The white wolf's heart fluttered, how long had he not seen such a look?
Even in that world, he had only seen this expression on TV.
"Okay. . . Then you will always be with me. He replied in a low voice, with an indescribable joy in his heart.
......
The eastern frontier of the Toulouse Empire, the city of the rifts.
It is close to the desert, surrounded by endless wasteland, and the dry hot wind does not carry a trace of moisture, which blows the people of the outsiders and makes them irritable. The wasteland is infested with poisonous snakes, jackals, and vultures. Always waiting to attack a lone or dying animal.
The yellow sand is everywhere, the earth is cracked, and there is no green plant to be seen except for the cacti standing on the moor and the withered grass rooted in the loess.
The City of Rift is the sinful capital of the kingdom, and countless prisoners have been sent to this harsh wasteland. Here, they've built a jumbled city with its own set of unwritten rules.
Murder, theft and other crimes occur from time to time, but no one dares to destroy the wells and fields in the city, and no one dares to be lazy and not to work, otherwise, the few white skeletons hanging in the center of the city that have been dried and eaten up will be their fate.
In order to survive, these daring criminals have evolved a set of rules that even they dare not overstep, which are forced by life. If there were no rules to unite these people, they would never be able to survive in this place.
The new prisoners were taken to the city walls to dry for a few days, forcing them to accept the laws of violence in the area. And outsiders are likely to be looted and become a piece of loess in the yellow sand.
The only exception is the out-of-towners, and that is the merchant with a guard. They sold everything, grain, cloth, pigs, horses, cattle and sheep, weapons, and even slaves. The people of Rift City will trade the Wasteland specialties, Fire Tongue Grass, and Heavy Blocks of Earth for these items with the merchants.
Fire tongue grass and heavy earth blocks contain a wealth of fire and earth elements, which are very suitable for carving elemental runes, or as a power source for rune circles. Very popular with those alchemists and runemasters in the royal capital. It can often be sold for a very high price.
"A flock of vultures. ”
That's what the people of Rift City say about these merchants, with Flametongue often found in the hottest parts of the heath, and heavy clods of dirt where the ground is most cracked. Neither is easy to find, and coupled with the harsh weather and temperatures in the wasteland, every time you mine, you often have to take a few lives and become food for vultures and jackals.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that these Rift City specialties are full of blood. But there was no sweat on it, because the sweat had been evaporated by the heat and the scorching sun.
Dozens of plants can only be exchanged for a bag of grain, but these merchants have no intention of reducing the price at all.
Even though the inhabitants of Rift City hated these profiteers to the core, they still had nothing to do with them, and those well-armed guards were obviously not something they could deal with. The merchants obviously guarded against them, and hired a well-known mercenary group in the kingdom for this wool harvest.
Eric is the leader of these merchants, and he is the only one who dares to trade slaves with the people of Rift City.
The types of slaves were mainly female slaves, after all, although these people were criminals, they still had the desire to reproduce. Slave girls were extremely expensive, worth 3,000 plants, and were often only affordable for people like gang bosses. But the quality is not guaranteed, and it must be a grade higher than those dedicated to the princes and nobles.
At this time, the slave trader was rubbing the stone egg in his hand with joy on his face. He had obtained it from an underground auction, which the auctioneer claimed contained an infinite amount of knowledge and magic within. It can help people perceive and understand the cumbersome and obscure elemental runes.
When the organizers demonstrated the wonderful patterns on the stone eggs when they touched them, the slave traders decided to take pictures of the collection.
Whether or not you can learn elemental runes is secondary, such a magical item can be used as a gift for nobles. That's enough to help him clear up a lot of relationships.
He didn't have much hope, but the moment he touched the surface of the stone egg, he realized that he had bought a treasure.
This stone egg can really help people perceive elemental runes!
The corners of the white wolf's mouth across the continent and the vast ocean squinted, he didn't have a good impression of this slave trader, so he didn't want him to learn the elemental runes, and deliberately gathered the runes in his mind very vaguely, giving him a feeling that he could not be touched.
Even if the merchant finally made up his mind to learn the elemental runes, he would find that it was nothing more than a flower in the mirror, a moon in the water. Never learn.
But he would never blame the problem on the stone egg, because the elemental runes were genuine, and he would only think that he might not have them, so he would not be able to learn them.
.........
Back to the slave traders.
After playing with the stone egg for an hour, he finally put the treasure in his hand next to his seat in discouragement.
"It seems that I really don't have the talent to learn elemental runes. The slave trader sighed.
It had been more than a week since he had purchased the stone egg, and he had to spend a little time studying this magical stone egg almost every day, but he had almost no results.
But it would be wrong to say that there was no gain, he had at least figured out the value of this stone egg.
Although he can't understand it after perceiving it, this stone egg is really worth the money, and his gold coins are not wronged.
Unfortunately, the fame of this stone egg is not great at the moment, and the slave traders feel that if this magical stone egg can be widely spread and everyone understands that it is a magical item, its value will definitely increase even further.
"Sir, the City of the Rift is coming soon. Shall we take a break?"
Just as the slave trader was dreaming of making a fortune, a voice from outside the carriage suddenly woke him up from his dream and brought him back to reality.
The man who came, the head of the caravan, was waiting for his answer with his head bowed.
"Are you about to arrive?" tell the caravan to rest where they are, and send a few men in to inform them. Or according to the old rules, trade outside the town. ”
The steward immediately replied in high spirits.
"Yes!"
The merchant waved his hand, pulled down the curtain, and put aside the matter of the stone egg, and began to calculate the benefits and risks of this time. He can't stay here for long, and he'll have to deal with the boss in the city for a while.
"These people are dangerous criminals, although they can get enough wool from them, but they are also quite dangerous, and if they are not careful, they will lose all their wealth and wealth, so they must be very cautious. ”
