Chapter 24 Preparations
After choosing to take over the task of Hogg Manor, Wang Cuo left amid a laugh. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
It was still early, and he wanted to take Al to take him to see the sights and monuments in Vanna City, or to see the cathedral, but Al kept pulling him back to prepare.
"Brother Wang Cuo, let's go back and prepare! We're going to go on a mission tomorrow...... I, I'm not ready. Or I'll go back and prepare now. Al had been silent all the way back from the Adventurer's Hall. Although it is my wish to become an adventurer, it should not be the time...... I'm still a kid, and I don't have much strength.
"Don't worry. Tomorrow you just have to take a big bag and collect things!"
Wang Cuo looked at the other party's nervous appearance and comforted.
Al nodded. But it didn't take long for him to continue to urge Wang Cuo to go back and prepare something...... At the end of the day, I hadn't visited anywhere, so I took a look at the Adventurer's Hall.
There were passing carriages all the way, and the road to the cathedral was always blocked, but at this time there were the most small vendors, and Wang Cuo had to give up the idea of joining in the fun.
Forget it, let's go back.
I wanted to find a random hotel to stay in, but at the strong invitation of Al, Wang decided to go to the other party's house.
Al's family lives in an alley on the edge of the Ring River, where he first met him. It looks more like an urban village than the ornately decorated shops outside the street. But the floor is clean......
"Look, it's almost there. In the front building, I live with my mom and my younger siblings. After a few turns, Al pointed to the house in front of him.
A double-storey wooden house, the wood is very old, the paint has fallen off and is covered with some fabric, stacked into a beautiful variety of patterns, it can be seen that this family is very attentive.
The door was pushed open.
Al made a hush gesture!
"Brother Wang Cuo, you wait for me here, I'll go talk to my mother. After saying that, he turned around the living room and ran to the place where the light was on behind him.
The living room is small, a table, four chairs. The carpet on the floor was also patched with exposed cotton. There was a closet with boiling water on it, and the kettle was full of black charcoal ash.
Wang Cuo quietly walked through the living room...... Ahead, the lights are on.
A woman can be seen weaving cloth, with her hair coiled and wrapped in a headscarf, wearing a standard women's long dress. He looks very simple in his forties and fifties! The wrinkles on his face are very deep!
Little Al seemed to be talking to her, gesturing with his hand, and then pulled out a silver coin.
The woman covered her mouth in surprise, and then looked at Wang Cuo in the living room.
She immediately got up and patted the dust on her apron and walked out, followed by two small children.
"Thank you, Mr. Mage. Thank you. The woman was so excited that she wanted to bend down and bow, but was stopped by the king.
"You're welcome, this is my fate with your child. ”
Wang Cuo said, pulling off the hood he had been wearing, respecting the housewife.
The women hurriedly thanked them and told the children to hurry to clean up the room. So that the guests can rest.
......
The sun set quickly, and Wang was arranged in a large room on the second floor, with only a table, stool and bed. But they were all clean, and the sheets were still scented with soapy water.
He looked out the window and gradually entered the city in the night.
The tall cathedral and the mage's tower can be seen directly, and the mysterious runes at the top flicker like water waves, as if separating the two buildings into another dimension.
There was a noise at the door, and Wang turned around just in time to see Al's two younger brothers and sisters. Reveal two little heads, and then hide back!
"Come, do you want something to eat?" took two snacks from the table...... Al had brought them to him after he had entered the room, and the unsold pancakes were fried in oil and cut into small pieces.
The two little ones happily took the snack.
The girl touched her staff with her hand even more curiously, and then the two little ones each whispered something in their ears that Wang Cuo did not understand, and ran out together with a smile.
No matter what kind of environment they live in, a child's smile is the most innocent.
Wang Cuo hadn't seen such a smile for a long time, and since he came to this world for more than two months, he has been dodging, fighting, and even killing and abusing to survive.
If you were just coming to this world, it would be nice to live in a city all the time like this...... It's just that after experiencing death, my mentality has also changed. This is also an era of war and chaos, and one day bad luck may befall you.
Therefore, right or wrong, as long as you have everything under control. I can manipulate these things in the shadows.
Wang mistakenly opened the magic book, and the first two pages were still Mora and Zorn.
Mora has been retracted into his spellbook as a helper in times of crisis. Zorn, on the other hand, returned to the Duchy of Fario with the party after the Black Forest Raid, and was rewarded by the king and loved by the people. Now he has been promoted two levels in a row as an Overseer, and has been sent by the king to the capital.
Although the Principality of Fario is a small country, let Zorn accumulate power for himself for the time being.
Now your own skills: Curse, Black Mist, Incarnation, Necromantic Turn, Power Ball, Bone Armor, Afterimage, Black Hole, Magic Ray, Flicker.
And talent points: [Bone Armor] 2/5, one point increases magic resistance by 10%.
[Enhanced Afterimage] 1/4: Once per point, the cooldown is reduced by 5 seconds, and you can add an additional materialized shadow, and you can choose to return to any shadow.
[Enhanced Curse] 1/1: Causes the curse to be silenced, interrupting the enemy's casting.
[Enhanced Force Ball] 1/5: Doubles the speed of each Force Ball by one more point.
[Enhanced Magic Energy Ray] 1/5,: Increases damage by 10% per stack and reduces magic energy consumption.
The remaining points were pointed out by themselves on the appearance change. It's a pity, but it's necessary to adjust in order to enter the human race.
Most of the commonly used skills have appeared, and the follow-up skills will only appear when there are enough talent points...... For example, the Underworld Armor needs to be full of bone armor. And the Magician needs to charge the magic rays to the fullest.
There are still a long days to go for upgrades in the future!," Wang Cuo sighed.
This night was, and was the first night I spent in human society.
......
Early the next morning, Al knocked on the door.
"Brother Wang Cuo, get up quickly. I'm all set!" The sound was orderly, not a slam.
Wang Cuo, who has been used to being woken up by a little sound for two months, thought that he could sleep well, and he thought of ......
"The door is unlocked. "I wanted to get up and open the door, but I didn't bother to move.
I saw Al quietly walk in the door, then look out, and hurriedly close the door.
"Why are you sneaky?"
"Hey, hey. ”
Al scratched his head.
"Oh, yes. Brother Wang Cuo, let's go quickly, I heard that there are a lot of people going to Hogg Manor today, and the carriage will be hired, otherwise we can only walk over...... You'll miss out on a good position. A serious expression.
Wang Cuo noticed that Al had also changed into clothes that were easy to walk on today, and he was carrying various knives and equipment around his waist, many of which were only half of them. A big backpack on the back.
"Where did you hear all this? "Didn't you come back with yourself, why didn't I hear it.
"That...... Actually, I went out to find someone to inquire last night, and the uncle next door is a horse breeder. I asked him about the Hogg Manor mission, and he told me. ”
In fact, there is no need for Al to say, Wang Cuo can probably guess that the other party didn't come to see him all night last night. It is estimated that it is preparing for this mission.
The first time I went on a mission, I was still such a young child. It is inevitable that I will be a little excited and nervous.
"Let's go!"
The king put on his clothes.
"Shhhh Don't wake up my mom, I didn't tell them. Hey, hey!"
Rolled his eyes, gotcha. also learn to walk lightly with each other's hands.
