Chapter 191: Departure

"Young master, all the goods have been loaded, and the carriage has also been tested, and there is no water leakage."

Not far away, a maid said respectfully, she was the little leader of these people, rich and new, hardworking, quick to react, and loyal to the contract.

Looking at the carriages pulled by twenty six-legged beasts not far away, Fugui couldn't help but feel a little emotional, before and after, after a total of nearly a month and a half, he finally took the real first step, of course, for this moment, he directly spent more than 10 million yuan in this month, yes, it was more than 10 million, together with the salary of the past few years, and now there are more than 100,000 Char coins left on hand for emergency.

In fact, it may be slightly cheaper to buy a clockwork car, because the six-legged beast has the bloodline of Warcraft, but there is no place to add clockwork in the wilderness, and the natural environment of this world is harsh, and there are strange bandits, once there is a problem with the clockwork car, it is a ball of scrap metal, at least before the alchemy civilization of this world reaches a certain height, it will never happen if you want to be like the earth and a long-distance driver can drive the goods to any part of the country.

"I've already communicated with the mercenaries, and they'll obey me when the time comes."

Not far away, Ciri, who was wearing leather armor, carrying two long swords behind her back, and a leather waist bag hanging from her waist, also walked over, and some of her long hair was cut off in half, which looked a lot more refreshing, in fact, if it weren't for Fugui to stop her, she would even want to cut an inch or something...

"However, before we go, I still have to tell you the route."

"Come to my carriage and say. Let the mercenaries rush to the West Gate first. ”

With that, Fugui boarded the second carriage, which was exclusive to him and Ciri, the most expensive alchemy potions, alchemy materials, and easy-to-carry alchemy equipment were all in this section, the first carriage was filled with food, water, medicines and other daily necessities, the third carriage was goods, the fourth carriage belonged to the maid, and the last carriage was a place for the mercenaries to change the guard and rest.

"Yes, boss!"

After a while, the twenty-headed six-legged beast made a sound similar to the barking of a cow, and walked towards the west gate under the control of the mercenaries, because of the accumulation of clockwork technology, the current car is basically made of shock absorption, but it is not very bumpy, in the carriage, Fugui is lying on his side on the bed, a very comfortable position, and the other hand is holding the parchment map handed to him by Ciri, which roughly draws the topography of the Char Empire.

"Rock City is here, Dellaske is here."

Ciri knelt next to Fugui, the long sword on her back was crossed by her, although the two long swords were a little in the way, but when the witcher went out, the weapon never left his body, and even slept on his knees, as a qualified demon hunter, Ciri naturally did the same.

"If you want to get to your destination, for now, there are two ways to go, the first one, from the Vilstep Mountains, which is theoretically the closest road in a straight line, but the mountain road is difficult, the climate in the Vilstep Mountains is very harsh, and there are ogres living in the mountains, unless it is to transport a small and precious cargo, otherwise under normal circumstances, no one will choose to take this road."

"The second, take the Shara Wasteland, this is also the road that most merchants will and can only choose, here the water and grass are lush, and you can also hunt, so you don't have to worry about the supply of the convoy, but it is precisely because of this that most of the robbers and criminals in the Char Empire have chosen to hide in the wasteland, and even many tribes have a relationship with these robbers, if you take this road, you must be prepared to be harassed by robbers at all times."

"How's the river?"

"The Char River leads to the border, and it goes in and out four times, and each time you have to pay taxes, and the distance is the farthest, which is equivalent to going around a semicircle."

"Also, in the end, even the nobles are not willing to buy our goods, what about the weird aspect?"

Weird is the general name of this world for other creatures or items other than the demon hunter and alchemist who can directly and indirectly use magic energy, such as the ghouls mentioned earlier, ghosts, etc., all belong to this category, in today's world of Faeron, weirdness is no longer something that can affect the safety of the country, but because of their own particularity, it is like psoriasis, and it is impossible to completely cure it.

The main city and the surrounding villages and towns are a little better, there are witchers to clean up, and occasionally there are weirdness will be quickly eliminated, and it will not cause too much turmoil, but once you leave the safe area where these demon hunters live and come to the wilderness, then you have to be careful and careful, God knows how many weird things are in the wilderness, or what will become weird, it is very likely that you are leaning against a big tree that intends to rest, which is the legendary man-eating tree...

"I don't know."

Ciri shook her head.

"Except for a few special weirdness, the vast majority of weirdness will not stay in a certain place, but one thing is certain, where people often die, the probability of weirdness must be higher than in other places, but you don't have to worry too much about this problem, the more powerful weirdness in the Char Empire has been cleared, as long as we are not unlucky to encounter alienation for a long time, or lord-level weirdness, there will not be too much of a problem."

"So I can only choose the second one."

After a moment of silence, Fugui spoke.

"But you don't have to worry, when you encounter a robber, you should drink the gravity potion, you don't need to save me, anyway, this potion is refined by myself, the cost is not high, it's a big deal, I'll refine some more for you."

"Hmm."

Ciri nodded, turned and left the carriage, with some emotion.

A few days ago, Fugui let her see this potion for the first time, called gravity potion, after drinking it, it can affect the surrounding gravity, although its range can only act on its own body, but it is enough, with the physical strength of the witcher, when the weight is reduced, the speed can be increased to a terrifying point, and at the moment of attacking the enemy, it can increase gravity, making itself like a stone thrown by a trebuchet!

She had only heard of this potion that could make the witcher have the ability to rival the magic seal, and she had never seen it before, and each bottle of such a potion was expensive, and she herself might not have the value of this potion, and what was even more incredible was that the consumption of this gravity potion was unexpectedly low!

In fact, although many alchemy potions are powerful, they will also consume a lot of physical strength and adrenal spiritual energy at the same time, after all, the demon hunter can drive away the magical energy, and its fundamental root is to use the renal spiritual energy as a medium to guide the magic energy in the outside world or the magic energy in the magic crystal, but this potion, even if the effect of the medicine has passed, she can still maintain enough physical strength and adrenal spiritual energy, in other words, she can drink this potional continuously to fight, which is why she dared to release her bold words, because in a sense, With this potion, she can be considered a senior witcher.

So Ciri has no doubt that once Fugui's potion is exposed, there will be many witchers who covet it, he can obviously say that he bought it himself, but he actually told himself that he would refine this potion, every time he thinks of this, Ciri will have a feeling of being trusted, a witcher is so trusted, this is something she has never experienced before...

"I've already told them."

After a while, Ciri returned to Fugui's carriage, returned to Fugui's side, and knelt beside him, his eyes would sweep over Fugui's body from time to time, and he didn't know what was going on in his heart.

"Well, let's go to bed first."

"Huh? That one... But it's daylight, but if you really want to, don't leave the city yet."

Thinking about the 'gravity potion', Ciri gritted his teeth and turned around as if he was about to lift his battle skirt...

"I mean, sleep sleep, don't you have to keep vigil at night?"

“(。 -_-。 )...”

...

In the dimly lit cavern, there were several corpses lying on the ground, their slightly bulging skin showing mucus from time to time, and the stench filled the entire cave, apparently, these corpses had been dead for some time.

"Goo~Goo~"

In front of one of the corpses, there was a man in a black robe, or a human-like monster, at least its head was not human, blue-gray skin full of folds, scarlet and huge eyes, no nose, only two dark and deep hollows, but the most terrible thing was the mouth, full of grinning to the base of the ear, covered with blood, flesh, internal organs, and some black and messy liquid...

"Goo~~"

This strange man has a thicker, looser neck than a human, and from time to time, through it makes a frog-like cry, but it is more muffled.

"Roar!"

Suddenly, the strange man turned his head sharply, looked in the direction behind him, and a dark shadow fell there silently.

"I don't like to be disturbed when I'm eating."

Seeing the black figure, the strange man lifted his guard, but still expressed his dissatisfaction.

"I remember, the last time I came, it seemed to be these corpses."

The dark shadow didn't seem to smell the stench in the cave, or rather, he did, but he didn't mind, but instead glanced at the corpses on the ground a few times, and spoke.

"I prefer to eat food that's a little cooked."

The strange man grinned widely, licked the flesh between his teeth and lips with his long tongue, and then showed a 'hearty' but chilling smile...

"Okay."

The shadow shrugged, grabbed a few pieces of parchment from the bag, and with a wave of his hand, they floated to the strange man, floating there.

"The tasks given to you in the guild, the old rules, choose one of these tasks, the seizure of the goods is the first, if you can, kill everyone, and then contact us through your ghoul, and someone will come to receive the goods."

At the mention of the so-called guild, the stranger's attitude seemed to become a little more serious, and after wiping the blood from his hands, he looked at the parchment seriously.

"It's really troublesome, in fact, you can leave it all to me, and I promise to kill them all."

"As I said, that will only attract the attention of Rock City and even the Char Empire, killing a part, releasing a part, and continuing to bleed is the most correct thing to do."

"Whatever you want.."

After a while, the strange man suddenly laughed.

"It's interesting, I hired a witcher, are you sure it's not a trap?"

"According to the information we have obtained, he has nothing to do with the Char Empire, he is a down-and-out nobleman who was kicked out by his family, however, he should have some kind of alchemy formula in his hand that has never been released, and it can allow him to invest more than 10 million Char coins, this formula should still be valuable, so, if you choose this task, add another sentence, try to catch it alive, ask his formula, the guild is also interested in this matter."

"Then I'll choose this, last time that guy escaped from me with a team of demon hunters, I want to see what gave him so much courage."

The strange man pinched it with his hand, and the parchment scroll was rolled into a ball by it, and threw it directly into his mouth, swallowed it with a grunt, and then returned to the corpse, and continued to feast, and after the black shadow withdrew the other parchments, it disappeared there silently without knowing when, leaving no trace, the smell, as if it had never appeared...

--- dividing line

At dusk, under the command of the mercenaries, the rich caravan chose a place that was easy to defend and difficult to attack, with a wide field of vision, and at the same time stopped near the water source, and at the same time, under the control of the mercenaries, the six-legged beast pulled the carriage into a circle, and finally all the six-legged beasts were driven into the carriage, so as to prevent the six-legged beasts from being frightened and running away in the event of any accidents.

"I'm going to officially step into the wasteland tomorrow, and then it won't be so peaceful these days."

Stepping out of the carriage and looking at the looming wasteland in the distance, Fugui couldn't help but sigh a little, he thought there would be some battles in the past few days, but he was unexpectedly calm, except for the other caravans that could occasionally be glimpsed from afar, there was no one else.

Said that Fugui stretched a lazy waist, looking a little tired, this kind of thing, even if someone is waiting for it, it is not easy, the carriage and horses are tired on the one hand, and worrying about danger at any time is the biggest reason, just like the caravans he said, they are very tacitly away from each other, anyway, the grassland is big enough, and there is no fixed road, but fortunately, he is not a pampered young master, but he can bear it, the only thing that makes him a little unbearable is to go to the toilet, since leaving the main city, Ciri and him are almost inseparable, Even when he goes to the toilet, he will follow him.

And Fugui has a habit of urinating, it's okay to urinate, once there is someone around him when he is big, he will be extremely painful, of course, for the sake of his own life, he can only endure it.

"Let's go, just go behind that tree."

Fugui sighed, pinched a stack of soft papers in his hand, and walked towards a big tree not far away, on the side, Xili followed Fugui expressionlessly, his two hands did not shake, but hung left and right on both sides of his thighs, if it was in the city, she might still joke with Fugui, but when she was on a mission, she would not do this kind of stupid thing to distract her energy again, this is the experience that countless previous demon hunters exchanged their lives for.

"Damn, I hate nobles' robes."

Behind the big tree, Fugui unbuckled his belt, ripped off his robe again, and threw it aside, wearing only a white shirt and pants with lace and squatted down, to be honest, he even wanted to throw away the damn pants, the clothing style of the nobles in this world is slightly close to the British style, even on the clothes of the male nobles, there are lace lace, the cuffs are first tightened, and then there is an open mouth like a trumpet flower, and I am afraid when I wipe my buttocks..

"Actually, you can plug your nose."

After a few minutes, Fugui stood up, picked up the clothes not far away and put them on, and turned back to Ciri and said.

"I've smelled something even worse."

Hiri looked around expressionlessly.

"A bunch of ghouls, they like to put their corpses there and let them rot, and when they rot to the point where they come out with foul-smelling slime, they love it, and that smell, compared to human feces, which is as cute as babies."

"Okay, it's your turn."

After leaving the main city from Fugui, Ciri has not been on the tuba, and the witchers do not eat during their missions, but drink a special potion that can provide enough nutrients for the witchers, and basically does not produce feces, but the water still needs to be drunk, so urinating cannot be avoided.

Because of this, Ciri will wear a war skirt on her lower body, that is, a skirt inlaid with iron armor, almost to the length of her knees, and she will not wear anything inside, when she wants to relieve herself, she only needs to bend down, she can get up and fight at any time, and she does not need to lift her pants, although there is a certain risk of running out, but considering the safety of her life, it is nothing, of course, in most cases, no one dares to take the initiative to provoke the demon hunter.

"Hmm."

Ciri still nodded indifferently, came to the back of the tree, and after making sure to block the mercenary's sight, he half-squatted there according to the appearance described by Fugui Fangcai, but when he saw Fugui not far in front of him, who seemed to be looking at himself in a daze, he still shook his head helplessly, she said that when it was convenient for her, it was best for him to appear in her line of sight, but she didn't say that it was convenient for him to look at him.

However, thinking that the two of them have gotten up together many times, Ciri is left to him, noble, and it is normal to have some quirks.

"I don't have quirks, and I'm not a pervert."

It seemed that he saw the thoughts in Ciri's eyes, and Fugui, who came back to his senses, hurriedly explained.

"I was just thinking about whether I could help you witchers solve the problem of convenience in the wild, especially you witches, wearing a battle skirt not only have to worry about walking away, and..."

"We don't mind.."

"I mind, ahem, I mean."

Fugui touched his nose.

"The battle skirt should not have long pants for combat, for example, if you kick out at the enemy, under high-speed movement, the battle skirt will greatly reduce your speed, and may even block your vision."

"Don't worry, I won't make that move, I'll try to keep my upper body in front of me, and use the sword in my hand as the main weapon."

Ciri looked away, as if he was surveying his surroundings.

"What else? I mean that.. It's the one that comes every month."

"In the middle of the mission, we will take medicine.."

"That's a lot of harm to the body, the alchemy products I envisioned can not only solve the problem of urine, but also solve the problem of blood, and when you enter the wasteland, you should be able to meet the wilderness tribes, the tribes that can survive in the wilderness generally have alchemists, they should be called sacrifices, I will see if I can trade some alchemy materials, there are suitable materials I can really help you solve this problem, so it's decided!"

"Hmm."

Xili, who was following Fugui, nodded without a trace, in fact, she didn't want to agree, as I said before, the relationship between the wilderness tribe and the robbers, but I don't know how, when she thought of Fugui's strong possessiveness for herself, that is, she didn't allow other men to look at it, she felt a little happy, but what really reassured her was the 'gravity potion', with its existence, she had full confidence to protect Fugui's safety.
