Chapter 176: Border
Out of impatient curiosity, Jonathan asked his own question over dinner.
"How much money?"
Lucia tilted her head slightly, it seemed that she had talked to Einstein about it before, but she had forgotten about it because she was not very interested.
"A lot...... Right?"
Unsurely, Lucia fumbled around her body and found a small square package sewn from white fur, which looked smaller and smaller because of the shape.
Lucia casually tossed the small package to Jonathan.
"What is this?"
Jonathan turned out to be a small package, holding it in his hand and playing with it, the small package is small and flat, but the materials used are very high-end and luxurious, so people can't guess the purpose.
"That's a wallet. ”
Lucia didn't pay much attention to it, and went on with her own dinner.
"Wallets. ”
Jonathan tossed Lucia's purse in his hand, so light that he didn't feel the weight at all, as if it didn't contain any money at all.
"Can I open it and take a look?"
With Lucia's permission, Jonathan opened Lucia's purse.
"Gollum?!"
With a strange cry of disbelief, Jonathan quickly closed the monstrous wallet.
"Inside, inside, inside, inside......!"
Lucia looked up at Jonathan and smiled smugly.
"There's magic in it, it's Einstein's handiwork, it's amazing. ”
- Magic isn't the point!" Jonathan roared inwardly, but he could not even say two words now, and could not utter any other long sentences.
Through that magic that connects to other dimensions. Jonathan saw the mountain of wealth in Lucia's purse.
After this little episode on a somewhat large scale. Everything went on as if nothing had happened.
With this lesson in mind, Jonathan quietly found the most experienced hunter in town before setting off. I humbly asked for advice about my experience in the wilderness and took notes carefully.
With this note, Jonathan never made a big mistake, but even so, the journey still made him feel loveless. It's not that it's a problem with travel, it's that the eldest lady is too good at finding trouble.
For Lucia, the journey is a little boring, and when Lucia is bored, she will find some fun on her own. Originally, this was understandable. But the only problem is that Lucia's specifications are too high, and the fun she finds is simply death for ordinary people.
After careful calculation, Jonathan found that he had broken into the nest of demonic beasts more than ten times during this time, and the number of times he encountered demonic beasts in the wild was countless.
......
............
After counting it like this, it seems that the most pitiful thing is not himself, but those demonic beasts.
Lucia also loves Warcraft, just like Jonathan said, what girl doesn't like 'small animals'? But Lucia's way of treating 'small animals' is very special, not with the practice of stroking girls like that. Instead, let those monsters do something that Lucia herself finds interesting.
For example, a giant snake wraps itself around and bites its own tail, and eats it little by little, and it is also called the 'body devouring snake', which symbolizes that 'the end is the beginning'. I really don't know how big the psychological shadow of that snake will be.
Something like this is the best, Warcraft is Warcraft after all, and most of them are not soft eggs. Most of them will be hostile to Lucia's assault, and some will attack like the two-headed wolf they once did.
Those who are hostile but only intimidating are fine. At most, a few bones were broken by Hecate, which was a small lesson. Those who attacked were not so lucky. Without exception, they all disappeared from this world under the tyranny of Lucia.
Putting aside the sad stories of the trip, this nearly two-month trip is coming to an end.
"It's hot. ”
Jonathan has been complaining about the weather since yesterday, even though he has changed into Khiva's characteristic fur coat, and he still mutters that the change in temperature is not so easy for the Khiva people who have been living in the bitter cold.
"It's noisy, it's just the weather, bear with me. ”
Lucia leaned on the window edge and rolled her eyes at Jonathan, Jonathan, an unreliable guy, likes to make noise because of such a trivial matter, and at the beginning, Lucia will help with some suggestions on the side, but it is annoying to be too many times, and now even Lulu is too lazy to pay attention to this guy.
"After all, you're making too much fuss and haven't even changed my clothes until now?"
As she spoke, Lucia lifted her collar and showed off the white fur on her body.
At the mention of this, Jonathan kept his mouth shut, not because he was ashamed of his lack of patience than the eldest lady, he just knew that he and the eldest lady would never be able to get along on this issue.
Jonathan didn't know how exaggerated the eldest lady's physical ability was, but just looking at the eldest lady in Shiva, she didn't feel the cold, and Jonathan was sure of one thing, that is, the temperature was meaningless to the eldest lady.
Arguing with such a big lady about hot and cold issues? Hehe, it's better to talk to Einstein about life.
"Speaking of which, is this almost the border?"
Lucia asked as she lay bored on the window edge without looking up.
"We have already left the border of Khiva two days ago, and we will be able to cross the border and officially enter Heberis in two days' walk. ”
A few days ago, he received a lot of frightened eyes at the outpost on the border, and Jonathan didn't know why the eldest lady, who had never cared much about this, suddenly mentioned this, but he still answered truthfully.
"And what is this place?"
Lucia wondered, Shiva and Heberis bordered, but Jonathan said that this is neither Shiva nor Heberis, so where would it be?
"This is an apprentice who has not been included in any country, and it can be regarded as an unexpected place in the human world, after all, human beings cannot control the world. ”
Ignoring the weakness of human beings, Lucia's attention was drawn to something else.
"So that means this is also a territory without an owner?"
After going through the eldest lady's question in his head, Jonathan probably had a clue about what the eldest lady was going to ask.
"That's true, what's wrong, Miss?"
Lucia looked up.
"Then why don't you live here, it's better here than in the snow, right?"
Lucia was very strange, although the temperature here was not above average, it was better than in the snow, why would she rather stay in the snow than come out?
Really.
Jonathan smiled wryly and shook his head, the eldest lady may have a hard time understanding.
"There are a lot of powerful magical beasts near the border, unless you build a fortress, it is difficult to survive in such an environment, and it takes too many resources to build a fortress, which is a bad move for Shiva to make ends meet. ”
This is the case not only in Khiva, but for all countries.
For weak humans, Warcraft is a very troublesome opponent, and it must cost a lot of manpower and material resources to crusade, which will cause many deaths in the process, and the benefits are nothing more than some animal skins and the like, and the pay is not proportional to the benefits.
"Humans are really weak. ”
Lucia said indifferently.
"yes. ”
Jonathan agrees with this statement, not inferiority, but the fact, especially after seeing the battle between the demon and Einstein, and he is clearly aware of this fact.
