Chapter 137: It's Rotten
After a day's search, the kestrel returned to camp unharmed and brought back the corresponding report.
"Although I don't know how the traveling merchant knew the location of the hot spring, they did find a hot spring with a special smell in the air, and I took the opportunity to collect some samples," the kestrel reported.
As he spoke, the kestrel pulled out a test tube with an oak bark cork, which contained a sample of the hot spring water.
Even back at camp, there were no anomalous conditions, indicating that the water in the area was real.
Colley asked, "So, after a day of running in a team, they went to a hot spring in the distance to take a bath, and the itching pain from mosquito bites disappeared?"
Kestrels: "From the outside, it looks like this, but something doesn't go right after they take a bath."
On the one hand, she wanted to witness those things in person, and on the other hand, she felt that her ability was a little insufficient, so she went out to investigate and added to the chaos, and asked:
"What the hell is wrong with them, they've become bugs?"
Kestrels: "No, it's just that after they took a bath, some of them had strange skin tones and personalities, and I suspect they took a shower and looked in the mirror with those crystal rocks, and then triggered some kind of trait."
"For example, after someone takes a shower, the scratch wound and the swollen swelling of the bite are healed, but after looking in the mirror, he feels that he has not washed it cleanly, and he goes back to wash it again, and after washing, his skin becomes wrong, like an unhealthy pale of paper."
"People of this color have become easy-going and docile in character, no longer grumpy and slippery sailors, but like quiet and eccentric scholars, squinting all the time and with an abnormal smile on their faces."
"When I asked them what was going on, they said that after bathing, their whole body was no longer itchy, they felt that their minds were purified, their hearts were at peace, and they began to understand those who believed in the gods and great powers, and believed in the power and miracles of nature."
Kestrel thought for a moment and added, "A lot of people feel like they haven't washed themselves after looking in the mirror, so I also broke a small piece of crystal and came back, my complexion is normal, and there should be no problem."
Ke Li examined the hot spring water and crystal stones brought back by the kestrels, and found that they were extraordinarily ordinary, and they should have been separated from the root body of the anomalous properties, and no longer possessed those strange abilities.
"The item is fine, the problem should be the place."
"Considering the traveling merchant's rhetoric and his experience as a real living person, his words and plans are mostly half-truths, and on the one hand, they do have an effect, and on the other hand, they continue to bury hidden dangers."
"So, as long as there is a demand for the traveling merchant, or accepts his proposal, there will be problems in the future."
"The information of the traveling merchant, we'd better take it and proofread it with the dragonmen, although they are all illusions of the fog of history, but the position and faction should be different."
Colley's statement is also hidden, because he can directly interpret the information from the information line, so it is very easy to determine which side is in trouble.
It's like in the game of werewolf killing, a good person is crazy about pretending to be a werewolf, and one is drilling into the wolf pit with all his might.
From Ke Li's point of view, the difference between the two is very obvious, no matter how much the traveling merchant performs, it is useless, if he says that he doesn't believe him, he will definitely not believe him, he is logical and reasonable, and he can't change his specialness.
Flanders also said, "Well, what did the competitor crew do when they came back?"
Kestrels: "The group returned to the assembly point after taking a shower, which finally aroused the suspicion of the rest of the crew, because so many people became wrong at the same time, resulting in a strange team atmosphere."
"For example, some people become moody, for example, just the trivial matter of saving alcohol, in their eyes, it is a great crime, and they are about to quarrel and start a fight. When they really have enough to drink, they become like iron buddies again, and they are happy to accept the heavy work of building a camp."
"Some people are not very close to each other after taking a bath
Normal, like the feeling of love at first sight and never being separated. No matter what gender he is targeting, what he has done wrong, whether it makes sense or not, he is all about helping to speak and protect, so the people on the competitor team who haven't taken a shower have also found out about it."
"And some people are starting to pick and choose, very excited and excited, saying that they want to transform the assembly point into a spectacle building, uh, I don't quite understand the idea of ordinary people, maybe they mean the elven kind of big tree that covers the sky and the sun?"
"Because I couldn't be invisible, and I couldn't sneak too close, I watched from afar for a while and then came back."
Ke Li nodded: "It seems that they have been completely led astray, before they contact the other teams, they should be hopeless, I don't know how long they will have to grind around the assembly point before they can set off."
"Although I don't know the whereabouts of the other party's general manager, since they are so bad that they are not immediately noticed, it means that their real-time communication skills are very poor, and the other five teams are all rotten, and they don't know each other."
"The leader of the competitor team may also use them as a front to attract attention, and they don't intend to rely on them to do things entirely, so they may also be small extraordinary team activities."
I rested for a few days at the harbor camp and watched a talent show for a few days.
When the competitor team was gradually being made to jump, Ke Li and the others also set off again without contacting them.
The second time I went to the desert area, it took a little less time than expected.
With their previous experience and route summary, it only took them a total of 7 days to return to the Dragonman territory.
Colly learned the language of the Dragonmen, so he didn't need to be translated by Mary and Flanders, and hooked up with the merchants in the Dragonpeople in a smooth manner.
Kestrel and Yuelan are just hands-on, and Enzo is also a very talkative boss, which makes Enzo a little embarrassed.
However, Enzo has always been quite thick-skinned, considering that half of the team does not understand the language of the dragon people, and he does not treat himself as an outsider.
Takyaman looked at Cooley and the others, "Very well, dwarf, Takyaman now believes that you are not with the bugs, and you can get a little reward."
"That spearhead is a magic item that can strengthen the town's defenses, you clean it up, if you are willing to give it to us, our town doesn't need so many guards, and we can send people out to protect you along the way."
"Don't trouble our guards, though, as they are mercenaries in name, if you do provoke them, they will surely be as terrible as dragons breathing dragons' breath."
