……

Not too spacious in a hotel room.

As soon as the words came out, Lumière began to regret that he just didn't understand the outside world, and he didn't really understand the world.

So he hurriedly explained:

"No, I didn't mean that, I just don't know how to express it in lingua franca, don't get me wrong."

As he spoke, he also said a few words in the indigenous language.

"In short, Matthew is normal, this lady, you can rest assured."

Lumière deliberately emphasized to Bobo -

In his opinion, the two of them must have a lot to do with each other when they share a room at night.

Bobo's eyes lit up when he heard this:

"Can you tell I'm a lady?"

Seeing that the topic had been shifted, Lumière immediately smiled and said:

"It's obvious."

Bobo proudly puffed out his chest and looked at Matthew:

"Look, it's not my problem that someone is blind, there are still many discerning people in this world."

Matthew smiled wryly.

His perception is actually quite keen, but it is naturally not comparable to a fifth-order boss like Lumière.

At that moment he exchanged a few more words with Lumière.

As he spoke, Lumière had an idea, saying that he had been on the road for a day, and his stomach was empty, and he hoped that the two of them could get him something to eat.

Seeing that the night was dark, Matthew estimated that Lumière would not be able to find another place to shelter for a while, so he looked at Bobo with an inquiring gaze.

With his ability to accurately identify his feminine characteristics, Bobo's impression of Lumière changed dramatically.

She nodded coolly at Matthew.

So the next moment, Matthew smiled and led Lumière into his private secret room.

After the two went in, they didn't come out for a long time.

Leaving Bobo, who was woken up in the middle of the night and lost his sleepiness, was bored, so he had to wipe his armor again.

……

The next morning.

Matthew calmly walked into a magic supply shop in the North Trade District.

He wanted to replenish some supplies for his trip to Dalong Lake, the most important of which was "underwater breathing medicine".

After drinking the potion, two pairs of gills form on the skin on the sides of the neck, giving the user the ability to breathe freely underwater.

Underwater breathing agent is a widely used and widely spread potion, and although the production habits and processes vary from place to place, the effect is often the same.

Matthew wasn't worried about not being able to buy a good potion, just that it would be too expensive.

He had far from the money he had on hand to squander it.

However, when Matthew walked around the shop called "Desert Light", he almost couldn't hold back the excitement and joy in his heart!

He came to the counter, took a deep breath and asked:

"How do you sell underwater breathing agents?"

The shopkeeper is a goblin wearing a sninner and knitting a sweater.

She is much taller than a normal goblin, but still only about 2/3 of a human.

Hearing Matthew's question, she immediately put down the woolen shelf and introduced very gently:

"A set of 12 gold coins, the label says it."

Her lingua franca is standard, and apart from her appearance, she doesn't seem to be any different from a human woman.

Matthew asked casually:

"12 gold? Why is it this price? ”

The female goblin replied slowly:

"Are the guests too expensive? This is already the result of price reduction, and there has always been a stable market for underwater breathing drugs, not to mention that they are made by deep-sea naga, and the quality is trustworthy.

To tell you the truth, the price of this potion was supposed to increase - the Nagas had always felt that they were selling it too cheaply, but as soon as they came up with the idea of raising the price, civil strife broke out within themselves.

It is said that it is because of the jealousy of the wind.,The object is a terrible poet.。

This is good, the magic craftsmen of the Naga tribe are also divided into several factions, and the price increase is not possible.

And in order to seize the market separately, our store also lowered some prices yesterday.

If you can buy more, I can give you a discount.

The discount is not much, just to show your appreciation for supporting the Eternal Night Tribe. ”

Matthew retrieved an underwater breathing potionist from the shelf, and found that it had the "Eternal Night" tribe label on its back.

His heart had suddenly opened up at this time.

"No wonder it was sold so cheaply, it turned out that the goods of the alien race poured into the market, and the pattern that was originally monopolized by mages and a small number of alchemists was destroyed, Naga's goods are not only cheap but also have good results, and the local mages are estimated to be completely unable to eat this bowl of rice."

"Also, how can I hear from Loren everywhere I go?"

Matthew was amused.

He pondered in his heart for a while, and then with a wave of his hand, he bought 20 sets of underwater breathing potions, as well as 10 sets of "frogman potions" that cost 18 gold coins and had a stronger effect.

And so it goes.

He only had more than 100 gold left in cash.

But Matthew didn't panic at all.

All you need to do is transport this batch of potions to the big cities near Rolling Stone: White Rock City, Jade Garden, and Torrent City...... You can sell anywhere for more than 8 times the price!

This profit is exaggerated.

Matthew can't wait to build a portal in Cordo City, running back and forth every day!

But portals are obviously unrealistic, and the cost of teleporting over ultra-long distances can easily wipe out the profits of the runners.

It seems that the idea of running a merchant can only survive in fantasy.

"Wait, it's not completely out of the question, I can find a safe spot in the wilderness and build a shrine for the Moonlight Goddess."

Matthew pondered what could be done.

In his opinion, the Moonhazy Woodland is actually a potential long-distance freight springboard.

It's a pity that the southernmost point of Athea's divine power has not yet reached Zeshui City.

A high-ranking person like Ella can return to the Moonlight Glade under the moonlight of any location in the main material realm, but being able to go back does not mean that he can come back, and if there is no shrine, altar or the like as a coordinate anchor, the moonlight returning to the Moonlight Woodland is destined to be a one-way ticket.

Matthew seriously considered the possibility of building a shrine in the city of Cordo.

The location of the city of Cordo is actually quite superior.

It is the central stretch of the North Shore of the Gold Coast and is heavily trafficked both by sea and land.

At the same time, it is located in the middle of four terrains -

To the north are the mountains, the El Kaohsion Peak and the Millennium Mountains, the latter being a natural barrier that spreads for nearly a thousand miles, cutting the vast land of the south into two parts.

In addition to the terrifying and treacherous terrain factors, the mountains are unevenly distributed with the habitats of eagle people, qi elements, mountain giants, blue-footed dragon snakes, salamanders, ghosts, red-robed monsters, etc., and it is said that there are also active traces of lichs and dusk creations, in short, they are very dangerous;

To the south is the sea, and the sea is the Arune Sea, and the port of the city of Kordo is very large, which is very suitable for doing business with the Naga, the overlord of the deep sea;

The east is the rainforest, the world of the Jango people;

To the west, there is an endless poplar desert, which contains a number of oases, which feed 99% of the desert population, and the merchants of Kordo City are willing to go to the oasis to do business, but later it was claimed that there is an adult blue dragon living in the poplar desert, and he always likes to block the road and rob.

Gradually, the trade route that crossed the desert and connected the oases was abandoned.

Not to mention the large highway that runs from east to west along the coastline, and the geographical superiority of the city of Cordor is already on paper.

"When Ella comes back from her long break in the Moonhaze Woodland this time, ask her about the offering method of the shrine!"

Matthew secretly made up his mind.

The mind is settled.

While the goblin proprietress was packing the goods, Matthew asked casually:

"Are you knitting sweaters for your family? But the weather in Cordo City is so hot, I'm afraid I can't wear it, right? ”

The other party replied with a smile:

"My son Quint is a pioneer for the Black Dragon Lord in the Frozen City underground to the north, I haven't seen him for many years, and this year I received a letter from him saying that we have a child, and my husband and I plan to save up a sum of money so that we can visit them."

"This sweater was knitted for my little grandson whom I haven't met yet, and I learned some exquisite skills from the Sioux people next door."

Matthew took the packed prop box, and after confirming that it was correct, he greeted the proprietress and left.

It can be seen that the big goblins have lived in human society for a long time and have basically been assimilated, and what human beings cherish, they also cherish, and human customs have gradually become their customs.

Dealing with them, it is indeed possible to ignore their race to a certain extent.

Leave the store.

Lumière immediately followed.

Lumière had been thinking of excuses since he had barely fooled around last night.

It was only now that his train of thought was finally cleared, and he decided to stay with Matthew first, gain the trust of the other party, and then find a way to turn him back into the rainforest without disturbing the other party.

So he said to Matthew:

"Since I advanced, my legendary path has also begun.

My instinct told me it was outside the rainforest, so I left the rainforest.

It's just that I'm too unfamiliar with the outside world, and I happen to be impressed by the smell on my body, so I walked over unconsciously.

I don't know what to do next, I'm curious and a little afraid of the outside world, maybe this is the adaptation period.

Matthew, if I could, could I be with you during this time?

Don't worry, I won't eat for nothing, I'm very capable, you can do whatever I want. ”

Matthew looked regretful after listening:

"Is that so? Lumière, I'd be happy to help you. But unfortunately, I am afraid that I will not be able to walk with you for the rest of this time. ”

Lumière asked:

"Why!?"

Matthew said with great regret:

"Because I'm going into the rainforest next, and your legendary path lies outside the rainforest, I'm afraid we'll have to go our separate ways."

With that, he walked in the direction of the hotel.

Lumière was left alone dumbfounded.

……

Back in his room, Matthew smelled a burning smell.

Looking down, the little man was sitting on the floor, meticulously playing with a brick.

"Where did you get the bricks?"

Matthew asked curiously.

"It's best not to distract the mechanic when he is injecting items, so as not to cause an explosion."

Bobo didn't raise his head, and his tone was cold.

After a while.

Matthew saw that the brick began to glow red, his eyelids jumped, and he was about to retreat, but fortunately, after an instant, the red light all converged, but there was an extra irritable smell inside the brick.

……

"Hint: Your fellow Mechanic Bobo has succeeded in creating a brick bomb!"

……

Matthew's complexion changed:

"You're making bombs?"

Bobo snorted:

"Or else?"

"I can't just go out on an adventure with a bomb on my back, it's too insecure, how can a mechanic go out so perfunctory."

Matthew said in a deep voice:

"You promised me that you wouldn't blow up the tomb!"

Bobo looked at him suspiciously:

"Yes!"

"But what about the periphery, what about the cemetery, what about the monsters that don't open their eyes, don't you use bombs?"

Matthew rubbed his temples, and he suddenly understood Yu Yao's performance yesterday.

"It's not that bombs can't be used, but there aren't so many occasions where they are used."

As if he were coaxing a child, he said softly:

"My summons and spells are enough for most situations, not to mention that we still have strong reinforcements, the man you saw yesterday, although his behavior is a little weird, he is actually not bad, and his strength is also very strong."

"Just bring this brick with you, there's no need to make more."

Hearing this, the expression on Bobo's face still did not change, except that two antennas suddenly erected on both sides of the helmet, and the top of the antennas flashed with a slight red light.

"What does that mean?"

Matthew stared at the antenna.

"It's a pleasure."

Bobo replied coldly.

Immediately, her voice was a little shy:

"If you can promise me one thing, I can turn the red light that symbolizes happiness into a yellow light that is even happier."

Matthew asks:

"What's the matter?"

"Can I touch your one?"

Bobo looked up, his eyes wide open with longing.

She pointed to Matthew's right hand and said:

"It's this glove, I can feel the wonderful power it exudes, a horror that destroys everything, and it's exciting. Let me touch it, and I won't bother with you. ”

Matthew realizes that it was the negative energy emitted by the pale hand, which caused the glove to be partially eroded.

In the eyes of the Mechanics, everything can be infused, and item infusion is their most basic professional ability.

Each item has a different reaction when it is infused, and of course the most common one is an explosion.

If only Bobo wanted something ordinary, this glove was a first-class dangerous good.

So Matthew shook his head and refused:

"I'm sorry, but this glove is my privacy and can't be given to you."

"Oh."

Bobo's little face immediately collapsed, and the red light on the antenna became even more dazzling.

Seeing this, Matthew hurriedly took out a biscuit from his bag and handed it over: "Why don't you try this?" ”

Bobo glanced at the cookie with some disdain, but still took it.

She placed the biscuit in the palm of her hand, and after a slight arcane fluctuation, a burst of blue light appeared on the biscuit!

……

"Hint: Your fellow Mechanic Bobo infused the cookie with an item.

Bobo succeeded in creating a mana biscuit (20% of his mana instantly restores after taking it, and the mana standard is taken from the average of third-order mages)."

……

Instant blue biscuits?

Matthew was stunned.

Bobo put the biscuit in his palm and asked Matthew with a blank face:

"Do you want it?"

Matthew nodded.

Click.

She shoved the biscuit into her mouth with great speed, chewed it heavily, and said indistinctly defiantly:

"It's gone!"

Matthew was stunned for a moment, then laughed helplessly.

……

"Hint: You've seen through Bobo's trick of "hiding the world", and you've discovered that Bobo has hidden the real magic cookies in her palm."

……

Matthew didn't ask for the cookie.

He knew that although Bobo's thinking was unique, he was not a person who couldn't communicate, and she would definitely be willing to take it out if she needed it along the way.

The two of them prepared for a while.

Lumière was just too late.

He found Matthew with a tangled face:

"Well, Matthew, I think I may be misremembering, my legendary path seems to be in the rainforest."

Matthew, who had long seen Lumière's anomalies, simply got straight to the point:

"Did the Spirit of the Rainforest ask you to come to me?"

Lumière was shocked, but soon he said with relief:

"You guessed it yourself, so don't you blame me? It's really a mission from the Spirit of the Rainforest, and I can't understand it. ”

He then described in detail the assignment he received from the flying squirrel.

Matthew smiled after hearing this:

"It's okay, you can just follow me."

No matter what Rainforest Soul has in mind.

Right now, Ma Xiu is going to the dangerous Dalonghu to rob the tomb - no, looking for an opportunity to advance, how can the fifth-order macho man who is sent to the door not laugh at it?

……

After lunch, the group of three left the city of Cordo and headed towards the rainforest.

As they left the city of Cordo, they also encountered several unkind-faced ruffians.

It's a pity that before they could get closer, they were punched one by one by Bobo with a thunderbolt fist and flew out.

Many people present at the time saw this scene.

So the rest of the journey became very comfortable.

Nothing happened until you entered the rainforest.

And once you enter the rainforest, it's even safer.

Lumière is a true son of the rainforest, and Matthew's "Souya's pleasure" has not yet expired.

The two worked hand in hand.

Bobo had the illusion that this rainforest was quite safe.

A day and a half later.

The group arrived at the shore of Dalong Lake.

However, before he could get closer, Lumière said solemnly:

"There are sounds of fighting!"

The three of them walked silently.

After a while, it was discovered that there were two groups of men and horses fighting on the shore of Dalong Lake.

There are forty or fifty of these people in total, and they are not of low rank, and they don't look like good people.

"It's the Wind and Sand Thieves and the Scourge!"

Of the three, it was Bobo who had the most information.

She excitedly took out the big bomb in her backpack:

"What do you say, do you want to persuade you to fight?"

Matthew shook his head.

He took the two of them to bypass the main battlefield of the two sides and approached the shore of Dalong Lake from another angle.

Then he took out three frogman potions and motioned for them to enter the water.

Both Lumière and Matthew took the potion, and soon, gills grew on their necks, and their leg strength was greatly strengthened, and they could escape far in the water with just a light kick!

Only Bobo refused to take the drug.

She jumped to the shore and jumped into the water, thumpping like an iron lump.

Matthew and the two hurriedly followed.

After entering the water, the two got used to it for a while, only to find that they had lost all traces of Bobo.

A moment later.

A strong current rushed from the bottom of the water.

Matthew stared intently.

But seeing Bobo's helmet face, I don't know when there was an extra layer of glass cover.

Her steel boots, which looked heavy, were now squirting backwards vigorously.

She hooked her fingers from Matthew and the others, and one of them sank down.

The two quickly followed.

However, the gap between the two sides is widening.

The swimming speed provided by the frogman potion is already amazing.

But Bobo is like a high-speed torpedo in the water!

Later, presumably because the two of them swam too slowly, Bobo floated up from the bottom of the water again, and then grabbed the clothes from the necks of the two big men and sank down violently.

A few minutes later.

They came to the bottom of Dalong Lake.

In the distance, Matthew saw a huge statue, the bottom of which was covered by a large amount of white sand, and the top was also covered with aquatic plants.

The statue holds a sword in its left hand and a talisman in its right, and its facial features also match the image of the Sioux people.

……

"Hint: You found an underwater statue of King Mingtan, Knowledge (Giant/Sioux) +10;

Aesthetic +10"

……

"This is it, yes."

Matthew circled the statue three times and successfully found a secret door at the pedestal.

He took out the Psalm of the Guardian and unleashed the spell described above to decipher the secret door.

It was beyond his expectations.

The secret door was unlocked in an instant.

The three of them glanced at each other, and Matthew was the first to walk in.

After passing through the secret door.

The wet feeling and heavy water pressure disappeared in an instant.

In front of Matthew is a huge underground plaza.

In the center of the square, there is a stone tablet with dense tadpole inscriptions.

There are also a dozen smaller stones carved with carvings behind the stele.

Matthew walked over and subconsciously put his hand on the stele.

A surge of information broke into his mind.

……

"Hint: You've been passed on to the Path of Balance, do you want to continue?"

……

I was a little tired after writing the big chapter yesterday, a few minutes late, and now I'm revising the typo, forgive me, by the way, ask for a wave of monthly passes.

(End of chapter)
