Chapter 15: The Mysterious Metal Plate
"I don't know, if I knew," said Buffon Sr. unhurriedly, "but the other party must be looking for this sign, so don't show it to others," and then reached out and put the metal plate in Wednesday's hand, and shook his hand, as if he was entrusting something.
I took the sign on Wednesday and looked at it carefully, but even with the assistance of the system, I still couldn't figure out what the brand was.
Mystic Metal Plaque: A special item made of extremely hard material and of unknown use. The system didn't give an explanation, and Wednesday couldn't see why, so he stared at old Buffon for a while, then took a long breath, nodded and said: "Okay, I took your task, I hope you are not fooling me, otherwise you know the consequences." ”
"Of course I won't lie to you," Buffon said seriously, "but I also hope that you can send Margaret to her destination, although I believe in you very much, but I still have to remind you that you really have no way back now, Margaret's uncle will never let anyone who knows the inside story live in this world, just look at me and Margaret." ”
"Isn't it just a matter of killing my brother and usurping the throne, I know," Wednesday said indifferently, since those black-armored knights were not in this country, and they wouldn't pass by the Robert Special Administration, then he didn't care. However, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, it is better to leave early.
Thinking of this, Wednesday said to Buffon Sr., "Is there anything else you want to say?
"Of course you need to," said Buffon Sr. with a long sigh of relief, as if he had taken off some shackles, and then winked mischievously, "No eavesdropping," said with a laugh and returned to the campfire.
Wednesday was naturally not interested in eavesdropping on the private conversations of the master and servant, and leaned under the big tree in the dark to check the task he had just received. The reward for this task is not insignificant, even if Buffon Sr. does not give him the so-called treasure map, he will not refuse this task.
The Fugitive Princess's Journey: Escort the fugitive former Robert Special Administrative Princess Margaret to Fox City, (Quest Reward: Good and Evil +100, Contribution +100, Intermediate Gold Sore Medicine× 5, "Golden Knife for Palm Skill×1. )
What level of cheats is "Golden Knife for Palm Skill", I can't see it yet, but it's definitely not a D-level product, it should be a little more advanced, and I feel a little more majestic when I hear the name. As for the intermediate gold sore medicine, Wednesday didn't look forward to it much, the primary gold sore medicine in his hand was still motionless, and this intermediate one was not much better than the primary one.
On the contrary, the contribution value and the value of good and evil are a little unavailable on Wednesday, so much contribution value means that he only has this task after the end, and his contribution value will be increased to more than a hundred, and then he can choose the most suitable cheats for him according to his own needs, well, is it to choose light skills or other kung fu?
Wednesday pondered for a moment, and when the whispering on the other side stopped, he returned to the campfire, "Since we are leaving, let's get out of here quickly, lest we have too many dreams at night." ”
"Okay, anyway, you have dry food and tents, and you can leave at any time," Buffon Sr. nodded without any opinion, while Marguerite sat there with a sad face and said nothing, and she didn't know how Buffon Sr. persuaded her, let alone whether Margaret knew about her own background.
After a brief tidying up, and after the master and servant said goodbye, Wednesday suddenly asked, "Isn't there a little maid in your house?"
Old Buffon was stunned for a moment, and shook his head sadly: "It's dead, killed by Grimm's people." ”
"Oh," Wednesday nodded, "I'm sorry, I don't know," and said to Margaret, "Let's go, let's get out of this place." ”
Marguerite looked at Buffon Sr.
Buffon Sr. smiled kindly and waved at Marguerite, like an ordinary old man sending his granddaughter to college.
Wednesday watched from the sidelines, and then asked Margaret, "Margaret, did you give your earth elf grass to your grandfather?"
"Ah, I almost forgot," Marguerite exclaimed, and quickly took out a packet of ginseng she had collected and handed it to Buffon Sr., and then whispered, "You, you must look for me." ”
Buffon Sr. nodded, "Don't worry, don't cry," reaching out to wipe the tears from Margaret's face, and then pushed her in front of Wednesday.
Wednesday didn't say much, and dragged Margaret, who was still in love, into the dark night.
After walking for an unknown distance in the dark night, and after finding a piece of flat land, Wednesday let go of Margaret's palm, "Okay, let's rest here tonight." ”
Margaret looked at Wednesday in surprise, "Aren't you in a hurry?"
"What's the road in the middle of the night?" replied casually on Wednesday.
"Then why are you in such a hurry to part with my grandfather?" asked Margaret, suddenly angrily.
Wednesday still looked indifferent, "What can I do with you all night? What's more, he also has his own things to do, staying where he is will only increase the risk of us being discovered," Speaking of this, Wednesday's face suddenly sank, "From now on, you must listen to me along the way, otherwise, I don't care if something happens." ”
Margaret opened her mouth, then twisted her head to the side, and stopped talking.
Seeing her reaction, Wednesday didn't say anything, just secretly prayed that the road would go smoothly and that there would be no mess. As for the statement that old Buffon has something to do, it is naturally his excuse, in fact, the real reason is that old Buffon's body is not quite right, although he can't die, it will definitely be very uncomfortable, he doesn't want Margaret to see it, so he took her to leave early, so as not to make her awkward.
After a night of silence, Margaret woke up the next day, and Margaret still didn't seem to let go of Wednesday's behavior.
Wednesday shook his head secretly, just hoping that this girl wouldn't mess around. But it didn't seem like a problem, she was just sulking.
Got some food to eat casually, and on Wednesday began to move forward in the direction pointed out by Buffon Sr. In fact, Buffon Sr. has never been to Fox City, but he knows the general direction from the map and knows which cities to pass through. As for the specific route map, it will be necessary to ask on Wednesday.
Fortunately, after reading the world map of Buffon Sr. on Wednesday, the system map has some more general topographic maps, which is equivalent to the system engraved that parchment map. Now on Wednesday you can see the maximum world pattern from the system map.
The approximate locations of the United Duchy of Dudley, the Special Administration of Robert, the Kingdom of Simmons, the Holy Wyatt Empire, the United Kingdom of the Cornweed Prairie, and the Kingdom of Sean, as well as some major cities, major passes, and major natural hazards, can be seen, but the more detailed content cannot be seen.
Judging from the map, the location of Margaret on Wednesday at this time is in the northwest border town, and if you want to reach your destination, you need to move southeast, through the kingdom of Sean and Simmons, enter the United Duchy of Dudley, and continue southwest, until you reach Fox City in the south of Gunas Province.
Fox is a small seaside town, and it is not marked on the map, but Buffon Sr. himself pointed out the approximate location. There was no way on Wednesday, but fortunately a city could not disappear into thin air, and it was not too late to find it once it was in that Gunas province.
Yes, it seems that this road is really far enough, from the southwest to the southeast, which is more than 10,000 kilometers, and I secretly pondered on Wednesday that this position is almost equivalent to running from Hotan, the northern frontier of the earth, to the southeast coast. And this world is much bigger than China, so the journey should be longer.
Buffon Sr. expects the road to be smooth sailing, and it will take months for them to arrive.
According to the plan, it will be triggered from Thorn Town, first passing through Boulder City, Noyce City in Marfa Province, Rasikiti City, Klinsmann City, Gary Neville City in Klinsmann Province, and then entering Simmons Kingdom.
In the Kingdom of Simmons, you have to pass through five cities in the three provinces of Kelsen, Zimmermann, and Derosi, before you can enter the United Duchy of Dudley. And this is only two-thirds of the way through the United Dudley Province, which will have to pass through the provinces of Beckensas and the Eastern Baltic before reaching the province of Gunas and finding Fox City. These place names sound complicated, and you can't remember them on Wednesday without a map. Although it seemed that it was not worth it to spend months earning those 100 contribution points at this time on Wednesday, the task had been accepted, and he couldn't really leave Margaret here. And he was really a little worried that old Buffon would sneak behind him and stare at him.
Thinking that in the Malz Mountains, the elder Buffon had been staring at him, Wednesday felt a little hairy in his heart. Don't look at his indifferent face when facing old Buffon, as if he doesn't care at all that the other party can kill him casually. In fact, I was a little nervous in my heart, but I knew that the other party could only rely on him now, so I had the courage to face old Buffon normally.
From dawn to nine o'clock in the morning, he found a town, and on Wednesday dragged Margaret into an inn, asked for two houses, and then said to Margaret: "Wait, don't run around, I'll get something to prepare," and then went out on the street alone.
On Wednesday, I walked around a ready-to-wear store and bought four sets of men's clothing and two hats that looked like western cowboy hats, and went to the spice shop next door to buy some salt, oil, sauce and vinegar and other spices. Ended up buying some dry food at a restaurant.
After a lap, there were only a few dozen copper plates left of Wednesday's only five gold coins, and he returned to the inn with these things and shrugged at Margaret, "Do you still have gold coins on you?"
