Chapter 8 Bodyguards
"I chose to increase the attack damage and attack speed of the two attribute enchantments, hehe......" Sangu became excited, grabbing his hair again, and his hips twisted on the drum stool, which made a painful "pop" sound again.
"Alright, alright, I see. Wang Xu was a little impatient, and raised his hand to suggest that Sangu be quiet, in fact, he also understood that he should not show irritability to the guests, but looking at the scalp flying in front of him, coupled with the parasites wriggling everywhere, Wang Xu was really impatient, but in the end, he still found a step for himself to go down, "Be quiet, I'm going to start enchanting, don't bother me, if I get distracted, I may fail to enchant, and your equipment will be finished." ”
After listening to Wang Xu's words, the innocent Sangu instantly quieted down, his mouth was closed, his eyes were narrowed, and even the two big nostrils that kept emitting turbulent air also shrank a lot, and his breathing rate also decreased.
Looking at Sangu's cautious appearance, Wang Xu pursed his lips and smiled, he felt: Actually, a simple and lively person like Sangu is still very cute, and he can make ordinary friends, but he can't make friends with people like him, his simplicity is not only his advantage, but also his fatal weakness, if he has a heart to heart with him, then as long as his enemy is a little tempted, his secret will definitely be revealed by Sangu He, so he can't talk about important things with him.
While looking at the cute minotaur in front of him, Wang Xu used the synthesis system to start enchanting equipment: he combined the stinking long axe with a second-order wind magic crystal, which increased the attack speed of the long axe, and then, he combined the long axe that had been enchanted once with a second-order fire magic crystal, and increased the attack speed of the long axe, and in the end, the original long axe increased both the attack speed and the attack power by twenty percent, and the enchantment was successful.
In fact, with Wang Xu's first-order cultivation, he can easily enchant a piece of equipment five or six times, and even use a third-order magic crystal to enchant, but he doesn't want to expose his strength too much, although he already knows a lot of information about this world, but he believes that all the knowledge he knows is only the tip of the iceberg in this world, so he can better protect himself by hiding more strength.
"Okay," frowned slightly, clenched his fists again, and after performing a very difficult look, with a "bang", Wang Xu took out the enchanted long axe from the synthesis system and slapped it on the round table, "The enchantment is successful, you can go out and try it, if you are not satisfied, then I can't help it, I have already told you, my strength is limited." ”
Sang Gu didn't notice what Wang Xu was saying at all, he shook his head slightly, his breathing became more and more rapid, his sallow face became redder and redder, his eyes were bigger than the mouth of the bowl, his eyes were gradually full of bloodshots, and his eyes were always fixed on the long axe on the table.
I saw that the old and dirty, foul-smelling long axe was gone, replaced by a brand-new, clean, fragrant long axe, not only the gap on the axe surface was gone, and the wood of the axe handle was also replaced by cheap pine wood to expensive and strong yellow rosewood, and even, the whole long axe was filled with a faint light, which was sometimes light red, sometimes light green, and the whole look seemed to be a different axe.
"Hey!" Looking at the stunned minotaur Sangu in front of him, Wang Xu knocked on the table a few times with "knock, knock, knock......" and reminded: "Wake up!"
Hearing the sound of Wang Xu knocking on the table, Sangu finally came back to his senses from his trance, he slowly stretched out his slightly trembling hands, grabbed the handle of the axe hard, stood up with a "poof", and his calf bounced out of the drum stool he had been sitting on, and the drum stool flew away with a "bang, bang, bang......" and smashed into a centaur who was drinking wildly.
The centaur got up angrily, and was about to find the perpetrator, when a blue-faced and fanged orc hunter beside him pointed to Sangu, who was trembling there with a long axe, and the centaur saw that the perpetrator was Sangu the Minotaur, and he didn't know what he remembered, so he trembled twice, and then sat down again, it seems that he had suffered under Sangu before.
Sangu, who raised the long axe, didn't know what nerves he had, so he danced twice randomly, "brush, brush" twice, two green fighting spirits flew out, and with a "click", the long table in front of Wang Xu was cut into two pieces.
This time, Wang Xu was really scared, and in this case, no one would not be scared. I saw that his mouth was slightly open, he didn't close it for a long time, his eyes looked straight at the long table in front of him that was broken into two sections, and after thirty seconds, he slowly stood up, his eyebrows were raised, and his eyes glared at Sangu angrily, and scolded: "I'll go! Are you crazy! Didn't you let you go out and try, what are you doing here, if you cut me, I'll kill you, do you believe it or not?"
"Heh, heh......" Sangu didn't apologize, just looked at Wang Xu and smirked a few times, and then, he carried the long axe behind him, and then, suddenly, knelt on one knee, his upper body straightened, his right fist hung down his chest, "Bang, bang", and roared: "Thank you for giving my weapon a new life, I want to repay you, from today on, you, Wang Xu, are my friend." ”
After speaking, Sang Gu stood up suddenly, smirked again, and reached out to pat Wang Xu on the shoulder.
"Alright, alright, understood. Wang Xu took a step back and dodged the giant red-haired hand stretched out by Sangu, and glanced around, and saw that almost all the mercenaries nearby looked at himself and Sangu with an expression like a fool, Wang Xu closed his eyes in embarrassment and suffered for a few seconds, sighed, and said to Sangu: "Since we are friends, please have a drink." ”
After speaking, Wang Xu walked to a round table next to him and sat down, in fact, there were still people here just now, just because of the time when Sangu made a mistake, he scared everyone away.
Sang Gu smiled and sat opposite Wang Xu.
Wang Xu raised his hand and beckoned a female goblin waiter wearing an apron, and apologized: "I'm sorry, I ruined your table, the money to buy a new table is counted in my account, and two bottles of high-strength rum, thank you." ”
The female goblin smiled slightly and left, and after a while, the female goblin came back with a tray, she took out two bottles of rum from the plate, and took out two giant wine glasses, which were placed in front of Wang Xu and Sangu respectively.
Wang Xu clasped up the wine glass and said to Sangu: "I don't drink, you drink, I invite you." ”
Glass after glass, in just a few minutes, Sangu had almost finished drinking two bottles of high-strength rum.
Looking at Sanguna's bold and simple appearance, Wang Xu shook his head slightly, and said in his heart: Such a stupid boy can't live until now in this cruel world of the jungle, is it really a stupid person who has a stupid fortune, maybe.
"Well, that," Wang Xu looked at Sangu's innocent appearance, didn't bother to test him, and asked directly to the point: "Have you taken any tasks recently?"
"I just finished the task of hunting three silver wolves yesterday," Listening to Wang Xu's question, Sang Gu put down his wine glass and replied, "I haven't taken on a new mission yet?"
"Okay," Wang Xu pursed his lips slightly, and said in a low voice: "I'll give you a task, the salary is a thousand gold coins, you be my bodyguard, protect me back to Hill City." ”
In fact, just now, when Wang Xu saw that the fighting spirit that Sang Gu slashed out with a long axe was green, he knew that he was at least a master at the level of a great demon swordsman, and his strength was mainly reflected in Taoism, and most of the Taoism and magic were similar, they were long-range range attacks, and his melee ability was almost at the bottom, which was equivalent to the water product of a beginner great swordsman, which was far worse than Sang Gulai, so he needed a melee meat shield as a bodyguard.
Sangu's attack power is absolutely speechless, plus the long axe he enchanted for him, his attack power is more than a step stronger, and, looking at his body, his defense power will definitely not be bad, so it should be the most suitable to hire him as a meat shield.
"You're my friend," Sangu toasted another sip of rum and continued with a slight drunken tone, "Don't give me money, I'll send you there for free." ”
"Friends to friends, money to money, brothers, settle accounts. Wang Xu took out a brand new piece of parchment from the space ring on his right index finger, wrote a task contract on it, pushed it in front of Sangu, and whispered: "You look at this contract, and if you think there is no problem, you can sign it, and if you think there is any problem, discuss it." ”
"No problem," he picked up the contract casually, and without even looking at it, Sang Gu took the quill handed over by Wang Xu and signed his name, "When will you leave?"
"Tomorrow morning," Wang Xu put away the contract and quill, looked at Sangu and said, "You go to live with me today, and we will set off together tomorrow morning." ”
Before the words of "good ......" were finished, there was a "bang", and Sangu fell on the round table.
Wang Xu waved his hand to the female goblin waitress and gave her ten gold coins, which were far more than the price of an oak round table and two bottles of high-strength rum.
Seeing the female goblin who picked up the gold coin and was about to make change, Wang Xu said slightly apologetically, "No need to look for it." He picked up Sangu and prepared to leave the mercenary union.
Suddenly, Wang Xu felt that his calf was gently grabbed from behind.
Wang Xu turned around and looked down, only to see a little goblin who was only knee-high, wearing a green denim suit and a small straw hat, gently supporting his right calf with his left hand, and holding an old yellow and blackened old sheepskin roll in his right hand, looking up at himself with his head high, his eyes shining with expectation.
"What's the matter with you?" Wang Xu lowered his head and squinted at the little goblin, a little puzzled.
"I heard you can pawn things here?" asked the little goblin weakly.
"Who did you listen to?" As soon as Wang Xu heard that business was coming, he helped Sangu, who was drunk to sleep, to the drum stool beside him, let him lie on the table, and then pointed to the other drum stool beside him, and said to the little goblin: "Sit down." ”
The little goblin smiled slightly, let go of Wang Xu's calf, jumped on the drum stool, sat on it, and then replied to Wang Xu: "I listened to what Luton said. ”
Wang Xu scolded Lu Dun again in his heart, and then asked the little goblin with a smile: "What do you want to sell?"
The little goblin raised his left hand, took off the straw hat on his head, and placed it on the table, and then, with his right hand, handed the old-looking parchment scroll to Wang Xu, and replied, "Treasure map." ”
"Ah," Wang Xu asked with some suspicion as he took the parchment scroll handed over by the little goblin, "Are you talking about a treasure map......?"
