Chapter 3 Existential Crisis
"I've had enough! Let me go home, right now!"
"My subordinates can't do it!"
"Are you little scoundrel still going to keep me by force?"
"It's not that the subordinates are unwilling to carry out orders, but they are powerless. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 "Dimensional portals are limited, and after using them for one round-trip, it will take another three years to teleport again. ”
Mo Mingke was almost desperate, he hid his face and said: "I'm still too young, I was actually tricked by a little green ruffian to a place where birds don't......"
"Actually, this place is pretty good......"
"Fart! You don't even have a bed, you dare to say it's good, you are so poor that you have to eat insects for a living, you dare to say it's good?" Mo Mingke cursed the little goblin a thousand times in his heart.
"Conspiracy is only born in a desperate situation!Lord Demon King, let's take this opportunity to reclaim the other soul fragments in one fell swoop!"
"I'm going to go to you, I'd rather sit here and die. ”
Mo Mingke was paralyzed on the cold floor, staring at the empty ceiling in a daze, in this environment without mobile phones and WIFI, he fell asleep due to extreme boredom in the time of a candle.
After some time, when Mo Mingke woke up again, the cold erosion of the stone bricks made him feel like he was about to fall apart, and he was covered with a dirty rag, which was obviously found for him by Yam, and in addition, he smelled a fragrant smell. I saw that Yam had lit a pile of firewood beside him, and was roasting an insect feast with pieces of iron that he had picked up from nowhere, and it was from here that the aroma emanated.
Mo Mingke's stomach growled non-stop, thinking of the pile of white maggots and feeling a little disgusting, hunger and panic made him really realize the seriousness of the problem, and also stimulated the instinct to survive, the current reality is: he is trapped in another world, not to mention how much impact it will affect him if he has been missing in the original world for three years, whether he can survive until three years later in this harsh environment is a question.
"It can't go on like this. We need money, and we have money to live. Mo Mingke asked, "Is there a city near the castle?"
"Yes, go straight down through the dark forest and you'll be Wallenbosch. ”
Mo Mingke nodded and said, "Very good, call the old tree, and we'll set off now." ”
Wallenbosch.
This frontier town is part of the Valen kingdom and is filled with magicians, travelers, and merchants from all over the world. The town's bazaar is even more lively, where you can find all kinds of strange items, many of which are attached to ancient magic and those of unknown origin, as long as you have money, you don't have to worry about not finding what you want.
With the help of Yam's flickering, they moved directly from the interior of the castle to Wallenbosch, which saved a lot of foot effort.
"Lord Demon King, maybe we can go to the Brotherhood. Yam pointed to a building at the end of the street and said, "There are often bounties posted there, and you can get a bounty for completing the employer's tasks." ”
"Okay, let's go in and see. ”
As soon as he entered the door, Mo Mingke's different dress attracted the attention of many people, and the eyes cast were both curious and hostile. Mo Mingke thought that he would have to change out of this outfit as soon as he made money, he didn't want to cause unnecessary trouble.
The structure of the house is somewhat similar to that of a bar, and it is the best place for travelers to exchange information. I saw an eye-catching bulletin board next to the gate, which was densely filled with bounty information.
Mo Mingke pointed to one of the bounty tasks and said, "Look at this-"
Content: Escort the caravan, Description: From Wallenbosch to Jingmi, Duration: 15 days, Difficulty: Rank C, Qualifications: Mercenary group above B, Bounty Hunter badge, Bounty amount: 50 gold.
"What can I buy for 50 gold coins?" Mo Mingke asked.
Yamm thought for a moment and replied, "If you count by the amount of food, you can buy about 75 servings of roast chicken for 50 gold coins." ”
When Mo Mingke heard the word roast chicken, his saliva was about to drip out, and he said, "Then let's take this task." Duck eggs, don't you teleport, send them directly to the mission location, and we'll go for a good meal when we get the money!"
"Lord Demon King, I'm not called a duck egg, it's Yam, Yam!" the little goblin poured a basin of cold water on everyone: "Blinker with two people is already the limit, if you want to bring a whole caravan, it is impossible to do it, not to mention that there is a limit to the distance that flickering can move each time, and you have to know where the clear destination is, only a general direction will not work." To teleport to such a distance, only teleportation can be done, and to cast teleportation, you need to have a magic circle at both the origin and destination. ”
"Okay. Mo Mingke said: "Duck egg, in fact, I have always wanted to ask you a question. ”
"What's the problem?"
"Do you have any other powerful spells?"
Without hesitation, Yam replied, "My subordinates are good at all general spells, especially teleportation spells. ”
"Do you know how to use some offensive spells, like fireballs, or something?"
"Uh...... Well, if it's like a lighter, you can still do it......"
Just as Mo Mingke wanted to continue complaining, a voice stopped them from behind.
"Hey, what do you want to do over there?"
The speaker was a strong man with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, and I saw that this man had a face full of flesh and a hostile look, and behind him stood seven tall men, all of whom wore red turbans on their heads.
The strong man pulled the gong and asked, "Which mercenary group are you?"
Mo Mingke didn't seem to be good, he didn't want to cause trouble, so he replied in a cautious tone: "We are not from the mercenary group, we are just passing by here to make some money by the way." ”
"Are you blind?" the strong man pointed to the bulletin board and said, "Don't you see the words 'Undertaking Qualification' written here? Do you think that any passing fish, shrimp and crab can take on the task?" These words caused a snicker from the group behind him.
"Then let's take on this task. ”
Mo Mingke pointed to another bounty, which read-
Cat Hunting Notice: At nine o'clock in the evening of April 13, 377 AD, the kitten in the family accidentally went missing in Wallenbosch. Although its breed is a native cat, it is very cute, one and a half years old, gray and white, and is very timid because it has never been out. Although kittens are not valuable, they have been raised for a long time as their own. If a well-wisher finds a request to return it, he is willing to pay a reward of 3 gold coins. Contact address: XXXXX......
"I don't write what qualifications are required for this message, this is always okay, right?"
The strong man stared at him and was stunned, and a man behind him whispered in his ear: "Boss, there is finally a C-level mercenary group that can also take on the mission, do you see if we are ......"
The strong man nodded thoughtfully, walked forward and pushed Mo Mingke away, tore off the bounty of the cat-hunting notice, and said viciously: "This task, our crocodile mercenary group has taken it, you can save it!"
Mo Mingke and the others walked out of the Brotherhood with their heads down, and Yam asked, "Lord Demon King, what should we do next?"
Mo Mingke said angrily: "You tricked me into this ghost place, and now you are asking me? Let's go to another place to find out if anyone needs coolies or chores or something......
They wandered around the street for a long time, but they were at a loss, and finally saw a tavern with "Waiters" written on it, but the owner of the bar glanced at this group of weird-looking guys, and gave a salary of 5 gold coins a month and not including food and accommodation. ”
"We're done, this place discriminates against countrymen......" Mo Mingke said dejectedly after being kicked out by his boss.
"Please don't be discouraged, Lord Demon, in fact, the roasted bugs are also quite delicious, chicken-flavored, crunchy. ”
Mo Mingke was about to say something, but he noticed that someone in front of him was rushing towards them with a hammer, and he shouted, "Be careful!"
The old tree, who had been following behind, suddenly let out an angry roar and blocked in front of Mo Mingke......
