"Accept." Lin Jiu did not hesitate, and accepted this side quest. Anyone who hesitates for a second is disrespectful to his main quest.
On the surface, the main quest has nothing to do with this side quest, but if Lin Jiu wants to complete the main quest, he can only let the current paladin chief go one step further and directly become a silver demon god creature. In this plan, the objectives of the side quests and the main quests overlap a lot.
The protagonist group rescues the king of China, as long as the chief paladin is disposed of, there is no need for Lin Jiu to make another move, and the king will immediately extinguish the emerging force of the so-called new generation of paladins.
The "Guiding Crystal" rewarded by the task made Lin Jiu think. The effect of the paladin's sword is to increase the efficiency of mana, which is called "magic". This "Guiding Crystal" sounds like the raw material for making a sword.
However, it shouldn't be that simple, although the mission and the main quest objectives overlap, but the difficulty level is still calculated separately, and the rewards for this difficulty task are definitely not as simple as raw materials. Lin Jiu felt that it was more likely to be the high-level substance of the raw material of the Paladin's sword.
After waiting for a while, Lin Jiu didn't see the hunting task prompt in the reincarnation paradise, and at the same time, he was sorry and happy. Unfortunately, there is no way to get the Golden Medal of Honor without a hunting mission, and the Hunter's Honor Store has a lot of good things.
Now that he is in the kingdom of Leones, the other contractors are far away, and the lack of hunting missions allows him to concentrate on other missions and the exploration of the world.
In addition to a main line and a branch line, what Lin Jiu needs to think about is where to get wool from. The quality of the Sun God Bird Imprint has been improved, and the Sun Grace is exerting force, so Lin Jiu doesn't have to worry much.
In addition, the first thing he has to consider is that if he mixes with the protagonist's group, then he will definitely not be able to trigger the effect of the "Light of Hope" title. As for the members of the Seven Deadly Sins Knights, no matter how you look at it, it can't be the inferior side.
"Let's go, let's go visit the leader." Lin Jiu didn't stop in the village, and walked towards a tavern standing on a hillside in the distance with Joan of Arc.
"Pig Hat Pavilion, strange name." Joan of Arc glanced at the tavern's name and said. She had actually sensed that something was wrong with the blonde boy, and that the Heroic Spirit who had appeared as the Ruler still had intuition at some point.
And there is no doubt that Joan of Arc's energy attributes are of the "divine" type. And Meliodas has the power of the demon god hidden deep in his body, Joan of Arc is faintly aware of it.
It's better to come early than to come at a good time, and when Lin Jiu and the others entered the tavern, they happened to see Meliodas preparing a sumptuous meal for the child Meade.
"Whoa......" Rolling saw this table of food full of color and fragrance, and swallowed his saliva.
"If the guests don't mind, let's eat together." Meliodas said with a smile at Lin Jiu.
Rolling turned its head to look at Lin Jiu, it knew that their side did not intend to clash with Meliodas and the gang, otherwise they would not have entered the country like this.
"If you want to eat, go there." Lin Jiu motioned to get out, if you want to eat, go and eat. And Lin Jiu himself didn't move, Joan of Arc is a heroic spirit and can eat, but it is not necessary.
After asking for permission, Rolling went to the table, and the little kid ate with it. Rolling didn't care about this child, pulled a roast chicken that looked delicious in front of him, opened his mouth, and bit down.
When the bear child Mead saw that there was a guy competing with him for food, he was not to be outdone, grabbed the food in front of him, and took a big bite.
Burst!
Mead and Rolling opened their mouths at the same time to chew half of the food, regardless of the three-seven-twenty-one.
Rolling back to Lin Jiu's side, he kept rubbing his tongue with the bear's paw. It said that he had never eaten such unpalatable food in his life, and that the metal minerals that Lin Jiu fed were better than these things.
Lin Jiule is happy, the food made by Meliodas, the leader of the Seven Deadly Sins Knights, looks very delicate and good-looking, and the appearance is no less than the food made by Xia. But it's just this taste, in contrast, one in the sky and one in the ground. Which one is underground, I guess there is no need to say.
In this regard, Lin Jiu was also very curious about how Meliodas did it.
The little eyes of the rolling resentful looked at the pit of his master, and when he looked at his appearance, he knew that he had already known about it, and let himself suffer a "loss".
Both parties were sitting at the wine table, and Lin Jiu opened his mouth to introduce: "Chiyou, a traveler. This is my companion, Joan of Arc, rolling. β
"Meliodas."
"Elizabeth."
Meliodas and Elizabeth each introduced their names, but did not state their identities. Meliodas guessed that Lin Jiu's side probably already knew their identities, and Elizabeth simply avoided the paladin from tracking them down.
After the exchange between Meliodas and Meade, Lin Jiu listened silently on the side, and took out some food prepared in advance by the way.
Meade's child-like character template is undoubtedly Naruto Uzumaki when he was a child, and because his parents died, he wanted to get the attention of other villagers, so he learned to play pranks and lie. Meliodas wanted to know about the Seven Deadly Sins, don't think about it here at Meade.
"I heard you seem to be looking for the Seven Deadly Sins. I've heard that there seems to be something strange in the Forest of White Dreams, and there may be clues. Lin Jiu opened his mouth and prompted. One of the Seven Deadly Sins of Jealousy, Diane, is located in the Forest of White Dreams.
Lin Jiu must speed up the pace of the protagonist group, otherwise according to their journey along the way, his main quest time will not be enough. Of course, Lin Jiu doesn't have to follow their footsteps, it's just that the plot develops around them, and it's easiest to pick up wool.
Another option is to go directly to the royal capital of the Kingdom of Leones.
"Shirayume no Mori!!" Mead seemed to hear some terrible name and was startled.
"What is the Forest of White Dreams?" Elizabeth asked Meade.
Mead calmed down and replied, "Legend has it that there is a terrifying existence in the Forest of White Dreams, and even the paladins dare not enter it. No one will come out alive at all. β
When Meliodas heard this, he became even more convinced that the White Dream Forest had members of their Seven Deadly Sins, and expressed his gratitude to Lin Jiu.
Two uninvited guests soon came to Bania Village, the Paladin's subordinates, saying that Banya Village insulted the Paladin, and if the Holy Sword could not be pulled out before the sun went down, the village's tax revenue would be increased tenfold, which was no different from killing them directly.
