Chapter Twenty-Nine: The President's Scheming
Under the concerted efforts of the villagers, the flames on Jack's body were finally extinguished, but he was already unconscious.
After a moment of tentative breathing, the mushroom people began to celebrate the victory of the battle, and the village chief first asked some of the people to tie up Jack and lock up the adventurers who had been under control for a long time, and then let the rest of the people start counting the damage to the village.
Looking at the dense blood stains on the ground, the village chief's anger was even worse, if they didn't have a resurrection mushroom that can be used three times a day and will be reborn immediately as long as they die, I'm afraid it would be really easy to be slaughtered by this Jack today.
Although the villagers feel a little sorry for their village, the mushroom house can be cultivated again, but it is a rare opportunity to use the resurrection mushroom to fight the recklessly.
So you can watch the mushrooms people cry and laugh and keep busy, making the controlled adventurers think that these mushrooms have been killed by Jack.
But when the inhuman-shaped Jack was thrown in by the five-flower tie-up, the adventurers' expectations disappeared in an instant, but they didn't expect that this group of mushrooms was really as powerful as rumored, and Lord Jack, who was in the forefront of the Adamantite-level adventurers, was defeated.
The adventurers immediately turned their tunes, from threatening to pleading, saying that they were all forced, and that if they didn't do as their eighty-year-old mother and three-year-old child, they would all be killed by Jack.
The kind-hearted mushroom people couldn't stand such a lie, and after thinking about it, they let them go, leaving Jack alone to bear his guilt.
The adventurers who had returned immediately returned to the union, and those who had already returned before saw their embarrassed appearance and knew that they were definitely deflated by the mushroom people.
However, what everyone didn't expect was that Jack was actually detained in the mushroom village, and the people of Jack's faction naturally wanted to save their boss, so they knocked on the door of the president's room together after discussing it.
The president was looking down at some documents at this time, and he was still a little shocked to see so many people suddenly coming, and when he asked what happened, the president, who had always been very steady in the eyes of outsiders, slapped the table angrily.
"Who let that idiot go to Mushroom Village to make trouble!" The green tendons on the president's forehead burst out, and the surrounding plants immediately swelled wildly.
Fortunately, an adventurer hurriedly said: "Big Brother Jack discovered an abnormal situation, so he chased after him." ”
"You'd better make it clear, or none of you will want to go out today." The president's face improved slightly, but he was still very gloomy.
"We spotted a mushroom man walking straight to the Douglas Magic Store when we were watching the teleportation array today, and we secretly followed it when we felt something was wrong, and found through the glass of the store that he had given the store manager a fruit that we had never seen before."
"Big Brother Jack immediately thought of the Luoxia Fruit, and when he arrived, the mushroom man left the store and returned to the mushroom village, and Big Brother Jack would follow in order not to break the clue."
After hearing this, the president let the plant return to its original state, and he got up and left the office.
He first came to the Douglas Magic Shop, and when he saw that it was him who entered the door, Mary uncharacteristically did not give a warm welcome, but said in a sarcastic tone: "Oh, our little broken shop can still let the president of the adventure guild come over, I'm sorry, the small shop doesn't have anything that the grown-up can see, you better hurry up and go back where you came from!" ”
The president was not angry when he heard this, he smiled and said, "Mary is getting more and more beautiful, I came this time to discuss something with the teacher." ”
"I don't have you as an apprentice, you are not welcome here, let's go, don't force me to be rude." Uncharacteristically, Jace walked out of the lab without waiting for Mary to call him.
"It doesn't matter if you don't recognize me, in Fawkes's eyes, you will always be my teacher, I only came here for one thing, it's not too late for you to let me leave after you listen to me." The president bowed deeply to Jace and never lifted his head.
Hearing this, Jace said coldly: "Speak quickly, get out of here after speaking!" ”
"It's not good for me to discipline my subordinates, and one of them should be making trouble in the mushroom village, so I want the teacher to accompany me to the mushroom kingdom on the sixth layer to make amends to the princess, with your prestige, I can meet her, for the sake of the entire adventure town, I hope you can think about it."
"Your men are idiots! The common sense that all adventurers know not to mess with mushroom people, don't they know? Jace shouted at President Fawkes.
"The truth is that they don't seem to know, but the teacher has already happened, and now they can only appease the princess before she gets angry."
Jace recalled the situation when Princess Mushroom was angry before, and couldn't help but shudder, "Mary, you take care of the store, I'll go back as soon as I go." ”
Fawkes stood respectfully to the side, waiting until Jace was away before he followed.
"There's nothing good about this nasty guy every time he comes!" Mary closed the door in a huff, and just as she did, a small plant floated in through the crack in the door.
The moment the plant hit the ground, many tiny vines quickly crawled towards Jace's laboratory, but as soon as they reached the door, they turned into dust in an invisible wave.
"Is there really protection?" Fox thought quietly, "Since that's the case, I can only talk about it." ”
Walking behind, he said to Jace in front of him: "Teacher, I want to go to the mushroom village first and then go to see the princess, and appease the victim to be more in line with the princess's temper." ”
"Okay, then let's go to the mushroom village first, and then we'll go to the sixth floor from there."
When he came to the village and looked at the ruins, Jace's right eyelid kept jumping wildly.
Seeing this, several mushroom people who were tidying up immediately asked about the meaning of the two.
Fawkes hurriedly said that he had heard about the Mushroom Village, so he rushed over to ask the village chief for his guilt, and asked them to help call the village chief over.
The mushroom people immediately sent one person to report, while the others stared at the two warily.
After a while, the village chief walked over, accompanied by a group of villagers.
The moment he saw Jace, the anger on the village chief's face dissipated: "My dear friend, why are you here. ”
Jace laughed and gave the village chief a warm hug: "My old fellow, of course, I came here after hearing about the matter here, this is the leader of the troublemakers, the leader of the Adventure Guild Fawkes. ”
Fawkes hurriedly saluted and said, "Your Excellency the Village Chief, I apologize deeply for the rudeness of my subordinates, and I will go to the Mushroom Kingdom with my master to apologize to the princess." ”
Hearing this, the village chief was stunned: "This is not necessary, we have only lost some houses, and we will be able to build them again soon, there is no need to bother Her Royal Highness the Princess." ”
Fawkes immediately took out a black card from his storage space, handed it to the village chief, and said, "That's not good, we have ruined our friendship with Mushroom Village, and we must ask the princess for this kind of big mistake." ”
"This black crystal card can be exchanged for 500,000 golon in the Adventurer's Guild, which is regarded as our compensation for the reconstruction of the mushroom village, and the troublemakers will be handed over to the village chief to deal with, and the adventurer's guild will never cover it up, what do you think?"
Hearing the huge amount of money of 500,000 Golon, the village chief hurriedly returned the black card, but Fawkes said that he would not accept anything, and in the end it was Jace who came forward to let the village chief accept it.
Seeing that the matter here was settled, the two were about to go to the Mushroom Kingdom, and as Jace took out his wand, a jerky spell came out of his mouth, and a green portal appeared in the clearing.
"Let's go." He said to Fawkes, but Fawkes motioned for Jace to wait.
Then he turned to the village chief and asked, "Village Chief, I have another thing I would like to ask, it is said that the princess likes all kinds of fruits and plants the most, if I give her a Luoxia fruit, will the princess calm her anger?" ”
The village chief shook his head and said that he didn't know very well, after all, he didn't know what the Luoxia fruit was.
Fawkes secretly observed Jace's expression, and seeing that the old man's face was only a little impatient, Fawkes quickly thanked the village chief and followed Jace into the portal.
