MTL - Reincarnated in the Alternate World, I’m A Demonic Lord as Well as a Villager-Chapter 79 If it wasn't for the money, the brave wouldn't want to be entrusted
Chapter 79 If it wasn't for money, the brave wouldn't want to be entrusted
【You are not the only ones who came to find this old man...cough cough...】
The dryad's words made Xia Mi vigilant.
"What's wrong?"
【Not all demons obey the orders of the Demon King... Some monsters have been looking for me for a long time... I should be in the woods soon... If I don’t agree today... I will probably be cut off... Cough cough...】
"Don't worry. I'll help you solve them."
Natsumi, who seemed to have heard something extraordinary, frowned.
"Let's go, Xia Mi."
Xia Mi hadn't spoken yet, Lureya hurriedly dragged Xia Mi out of the woods.
【Really reliable Miss Elf and the Demon King... It seems that the Demon King has been trained...】
On the way.
Lureya looked at Xia Mi warily.
"Xia Mi, do you think what this dryad said is strange?"
"Speak slowly?"
"No. But it feels weird..."
"Where is the strange..."
"Unable to speak."
The blond elf pinched his chin thoughtfully, and suddenly realized.
"He's obviously an old man, yet his mouth is full of ○○○."
"It's the same for you! Dryads, a species that has lived for so long, it's not surprising that they have knowledge in this regard!"
…
Outside the woods.
A group of mercenaries slowly got off the carriage, followed by a white-haired girl who jumped out of the cargo compartment where the goods were placed.
"Hey, Oka, are the goods all right?"
A man's questioning voice came from ahead.
The white-haired girl hastily poked her face to take a look.
"None are broken!"
"Then move all the things you need!"
"oh oh…"
The girl quickly responded and moved all the goods to the front.
He is obviously a swordsman, and he was entrusted with protecting the convoy. Why did he do this kind of thing of moving goods?
Oka Lina Brave's small face revealed a trace of discomfort.
But in order to pay off Xia Mi and Miss Lureya's money, this is a must!
The so-called goods are several sharp drill bits.
Watching the mercenary group in front of her pick up the gun and walk towards the woods, Lina froze in place.
The girl was commissioned by the Adventurer's Guild in Eden City.
The commission wall of the Adventurers Guild is not all simple errand commissions.
Offering rewards to prisoners, hunting animals, protecting cities... all kinds of commissions from various forces can be seen on the commission wall. There are even many commissions of gray code words appearing on the wall.
And now the commission the girl received was a commission to secretly mine gold.
After the girl came out of the village, she went directly to crusade against the devil, failed, and then returned to the village.
I don’t know the water depth of the adventurer’s guild commission wall at all. Seeing that as long as I can get 10 gold coins after completing this commission, I quickly accepted it.
On the surface, it is a commission to **** the convoy, but I was told on the way that she still needs to deal with special circumstances. If some powerful wild animals suddenly appear in the woods when the mercenary group steals gold, or they want to resist The Rolling Stone Essence, let her solve them.
For the gold coins, the girl gritted her teeth and agreed.
Stealing gold or something requires destroying the surface of the forest and cutting down a lot of trees.
For gold, is this really necessary...
"Oka, what are you doing in a daze, come here quickly."
"Is this really necessary?"
"Is it true or not? Of course it has to be like this. This is a rare place where gold can be dug out of the shallow soil layer. We must act first!"
A man in the mercenary group walked towards the woods with a drill barrel in his arms.
Lena stood where she was, still not moving.
"Miss Oka, do you want to come over and have a rest?"
At this time, a man with blue hair came to Lina, about 1.9 meters tall, about 30 years old, and said with a smile.
The person who came was Xiu Te, the leader of the [Tree Hunting] mercenary group. Although the main job of the mercenary group was to hunt dryads, they would take any hidden jobs.
"Captain Xiute, the Adventurer's Guild said that this forest is a protected area, stealing gold is not in accordance with the law..."
Xiut said to himself: "Don't worry. As long as you get the gold, you can hire villagers to plant new saplings, and there will be no damage at all."
The white-haired girl frowned, obviously not believing what the man in front of her said.
The real culprit who is obviously the head of the group but makes sarcastic remarks, and has been condoning the bad behavior of the mercenary group, is he right?
"Oh, by the way, I heard that Ms. Oka is also a hero who once defeated the Demon King."
"Yes, there is such a thing..."
"Well, then we are really destined, I also participated in the battle against the devil hahaha."
Shoot laughed, and several things fell out of his sleeve.
Lina froze for a moment, and helped him pick it up.
"Captain Xiute, you dropped something..."
"Oh? Isn't this the [Slime Hundred Muslash] badge issued to me by the Adventurer's Guild that I can only get by killing a hundred slimes? There is also this [Grand Brother] badge that can only be obtained by destroying ten goblin lairs. Brin's Lair Destroyer] Badge. It accidentally fell out... This reminds me of that period of the past..."
It is completely intentional to show off...
The white-haired girl did not expose the bragging of the man in front of her, and looked worriedly at the forest again.
Seeing that the girl didn't respond, Xiu Te changed the subject.
"By the way, Ms. Oka, I am also a swordsman. You are also a swordsman. We also participated in the crusade against the demon king together. Why don't you share the past in the car. The sun here is a little bit hot."
"No, no, I'll stand outside..."
Lena shook her head and refused with a smile.
It was because she felt that the man in front of her was staring at her body maliciously that she ran to stay in the cargo compartment.
But the employer who issued the entrustment cannot speak out such subjective speculation.
Xiut withdrew his greedy gaze, and secretly looked at the white-haired girl with hatred.
Did you really think you were asked to work?
For that kind of thing, my uncle alone is enough, and I came to you because of your face.
Are you not interested in such a strong body and rich professional resume?
But it doesn't matter, seven out of ten low-level female adventurers are money worshipers, and they pretend to be so innocent, but they just can't let go of their thin face.
Shoot secretly sneered.
It seems that he can only use that trick to make her surrender at his feet.
"Speaking of which, if I have the opportunity, I really want to learn swordsmanship with Ms. Oka."
"Is Commander Shutter's swordsmanship very good?"
"Ah, in the city of Eden, it can be considered as one of the top ten existences."
Seeing that the little fish was hooked, Xiu Te continued.
"The reason why my swordsmanship can have a place in Eden City is because my mother's third sister's cousin's cousin's husband's elder brother taught me."
"He's still a super character. As a swordsman, Ms. Oka definitely knows his name. Why don't you guess who he is?"
"..."
The white-haired girl was absent-minded, she didn't even know what to answer, she turned her small face quietly.
I don’t want to guess!
Because it was a boring chat, I didn’t want to make the atmosphere awkward, so I reluctantly answered a sentence, but immediately regretted it...
I really want to block out the noise in front of me...Who wants to guess the genealogical relationship in your family... Such a tangled relationship has been unclear since the third cousin...
If it wasn't for the money, I wouldn't want to do such a boring thing.
Practicing swordsmanship well, killing the devil king, and living with Xia Mi three meals a day without any worries is what the girl Nian Nian wants.
the other side.
Xia Mi and Lureya, who had just arrived outside the woods, saw the mercenaries in action, and saw the white-haired hero Lina at a glance.
"I don't know why, but now I don't find it strange to see Lena anywhere..."
Xia Mi looked at Bai Mao and muttered.
"I have the same feeling, that's right... Normally, if the weather is so good, it wouldn't be impossible to ask Lena to have a picnic here, but now is not the time to talk about these things."
Lureya looked at Xia Mi beside her.
"With Lina here, we can't do anything at all. It seems that they are going to steal gold. This group of people is not a good person at first glance! What about the other monsters that the old tree spirit said?"
Xia Mi was also under consideration.
If you want to stop those people, it seems that you have to meet Baimao face to face.
At this moment.
The people who steal gold have entered the woods, half of them are looking for suspicious stones with sharp cutters, and half of them are starting to dig into the ground with drills.
In this forest, what can produce gold is not only the soil, but also the stones that appear in the forest inexplicably.
Cut them open, and there is a high probability of getting rare gold.
"Here, here you are."
Lureya handed it over with a small hand, while looking at Xia Mi.
is a pair of black stockings.
With a serious face.
"That's the only way to go. This is not worn. Do you want to wear it?"
"Why can you say such things so easily? Is it normal to give away worn socks to others?"
Xia Mi refused the black stockings on the little blond hand, looking at Lena outside the woods.
By the way, who is that blue-haired man? Anyone with a discerning eye can tell that Bai Mao is bothering you. Get away from her, okay?
That being said, from the conversation just now, the man with the blue hair doesn't seem to be weak.
There is also the inexplicable sentence "You can only get the [Slime Hundred Mu Slash Badge] by killing hundreds of slimes", and when I heard it, I already wanted to smash his head into the ground.
"Xia Mi, there is movement over there!"
Lureya quickly pulled La Xiami, and the woods not far away suddenly became agitated.
"It's Rolling Stone, I cut to the ○○ of Rolling Stone, and it fell!"
"The ○○ of the stone is also a stone!"
"There are five Rolling Stones! Get your weapons!"
Rolling Stone?
Isn’t this an ordinary monster? Although it is known that it is not extinct, but it appears here, it is definitely the monster that the old tree spirit said.
"It's really troublesome, Lureya, go out first and hold back the group of mercenaries and Lena who haven't entered the forest yet. I'll go and see the situation over there."
"Eh? If it's just an ordinary mercenary group, it should be fine. But that man seems to be a bit strong. I heard him say that Eden City is top ten in swordsmanship."
The blond girl froze for a moment before reacting.
"Don't! I don't know what identity to go out with! Whether it's seen by Lina or by those people, it's a good thing for an elf girl to run out because the forest is in danger and warn them not to destroy the forest. It’s a strange thing. Now there is no such unfounded legend that every forest is guarded by elves.”
"The elves are only close to nature, but they are not guardian ambassadors of the forest. There is no way for humans to forcibly stop the destruction of the forest! No matter how you think about it, it feels impossible!"
"Is this difficult for you, Lureya, the elf girl has already thought of a solution."
"It's useless to flatter me. At this time, I can also generously admit that I am stupid."
