Chapter 702: The Teaching of the Meal
Returning to the bustling market, the dragon lady Hina couldn't wait to ask: "Henry! When did you get back? What about Ammon? Is the rescue operation smooth? And what's going on with that monster army you just talked about? ”
She spoke quickly and urgently, almost without panting, and poured out all the questions in an instant, even Yao En couldn't help but show a surprised expression, completely unable to imagine that this usually very quiet companion would have such an impatient side.
Looking at Sheena's slightly flushed face, Henry smiled and shook his head: "Don't worry, take your time one by one, you have a lot of questions, and there are a lot of things that have happened on this trip, and it is estimated that I can't finish talking about it in a while." It just so happens that the nest of seven grains is not far ahead, so I guess you haven't had lunch either, so why don't we go in and eat and talk. ”
"Aha, that's great, it's been a long time since I left your luxurious mansion." After saying that, Yao En licked his lips and secretly glanced at Sally Love.
During this time, he had a lot of quarrels with this holy warrior girl, and most of the reason was eating. Seile Love stubbornly refused to accept her employer's hospitality, so the three of them slept in the open during the adventure, eating some dry bread and half-cooked roast meat, not to mention the taste and taste, and the light without diarrhea.
"Then what are you waiting for, let's go, I'm so hungry that I can eat a cow." Sheena agreed without hesitation. It seems that she is also fed up with the bad food these days, and can't wait to improve the food.
As for Cerly Love, she remained silent, not knowing what she was thinking. But her eyes were very wandering, and she felt that she was thinking about something important. Of course. It is not excluded that they are praying to the god of justice, Tyre, or contacting their own kind.
After all, Henry knew too little about celestial creatures. It is known from books that there are several broad categories of dwellers in the upper planes. They are: the Astral Divine Race, the Astral Apostles, the servant angels created by the gods with divine power, etc., among which the Asmo Protoss belongs to the most complex one. They are a hybrid born from a combination of celestial beings and other species, and not only have a variety of abilities, but also have quite unique behaviors.
The holy warrior girl in front of her is just one of the Asmo Divine Clan, who grew up in the temple of Tyre since she was a child, and has been brainwashed by utopian thoughts, and it is difficult for her to adapt to the harsh environment of the survival of the fittest in the main plane. For her, the best destination is to return to the upper plane that advocates kindness. Otherwise, the end will either be to die from a certain frame-up or to be lured to fall.
is such a rigid girl who is completely unfamiliar with the world, and was sent to the main plane to carry out a mission, I really don't know if the god of justice has a problem with his brain.
In about ten minutes, the group came to the hotel located on the north side of the second floor of the circular shopping mall area - "Seven Valleys' Nest".
It is said that the reason for this strange name is to arouse the curiosity of the guests so that more people can come to eat and stay. But in the end, for some reason, although the guests were attracted, most of them were rude adventurers and drunken drunkards, and the really rich guests were snatched away by the Fog Rest Inn across the wall.
Over time, over time. These two hotels have formed a tacit understanding with each other, and one is slightly more luxurious in decoration. Only merchants and nobles were entertained, while the other was as close as possible to the commoners, and was loved by merchants and adventurers.
On top of that, the obese landlady here Pai Trixia cooks a good dish that everyone who has eaten it praises. In addition, the wine is also good, especially the slightly bitter rye wine, which is not only large in quantity, but also very cheap, which fully satisfies the appetite of those drunkards.
The hungry Henry did not hesitate, directly ordered more than a dozen of the most expensive specialties, and then took advantage of the waiting time to selectively tell the experience after going to sea. When he finally talks about Joan. When Irenikas tried to destroy the elven city and suck the power of the Tree of Life to become a god, the already enraged Seilelev finally broke out.
The girl slammed her fist on the table, her face flushed with excitement and roared, "This evil mage must be punished with justice!" It's the first time I've seen such a horrible person. It is an unforgivable sin that he could let tens of thousands of innocent people die for such a selfish reason. ”
Sheena took a deep breath and nodded slightly: "That's right, you did the right thing." As long as he can stop this guy from completing his evil plan, it will be worth the cost. ”
"Magical warfare is not as easy as you think, just a small mistake is enough to kill hundreds of people, otherwise I wouldn't have hit the adventurer's head with my mind." Henry sighed helplessly. Although he is sure of winning the final victory, it is difficult to say how much he will lose in the whole process.
You must know that whether it is the Barbarian Guards or the slightly immature Mage Regiment, they are extremely important forces on the surface. The latter, in particular, are hard-won and are the seeds for spreading magical power in the future, and even a tenth of them will not be worth the loss. If he hadn't seen the opportunity to annex the Masked Mage's Guild, he wouldn't have transferred this force to the battlefield.
As for the puppets and golem troops, it doesn't matter, anyway, they are just some alchemical creations, and they are all recreated after they die. Anyway, this trip to the underground looted enough materials, and after the underground city was built, there was a continuous supply of various minerals, plus the cheap energy of the dimensional sphere, and in a few months, an army of steel could be produced.
Yao En obviously didn't care about what was good or evil, and he didn't care how many people would die in the war. All he cared about was whether it was profitable, so he took a big sip of honey and asked, "This is the big business you are talking about?" What are the benefits of attending? ”
Henry had expected this a long time ago, and smiled unhurriedly and said bewildermently: "Very much, unimaginably much." An elven general promised me that they would pay whatever price they could to save the city. Don't tell me, you don't know the value of elf crafts and chain mail in human society, maybe just two or three pieces are enough for a person to live the rest of his life without worrying about food and clothing. ”
"We shouldn't be asking for compensation when someone else is in trouble, it's not an act of justice." Before anyone else could speak. Selly Love immediately frowned and retorted. In her opinion, this is an out-and-out danger of taking advantage of others. It's not an evil act, though. But the inclination is already obvious.
"But it's not evil! Is that right? Henry asked very sternly.
Selly Ruff pondered for a few minutes, and finally nodded with difficulty: "Yes, it's not evil, but ......"
Before she could finish speaking, Henry immediately raised his hand to stop the rest of the part.
"Stop! I know what you're talking about. However, there is an important issue that is overlooked, and that is that most of the adventurers on the main plane are a group of ordinary people. They need food, clothing, armor, weapons, potions, and to feed their families and loved ones, all of which require a lot of money. If not paid. So how do these people live? Maybe you haven't realized how wrong you've been. Refusing to accept a gratuity is tantamount to breaking the rules that a risk-taker has agreed with his employer. ”
Speaking of this, he deliberately paused and pointed to the dwarf who was drinking: "Maybe you think Yao En is very greedy and never wants to give up a copper plate. But it is his greed that maintains the environment in which adventurers live. Think about it, if this rule is broken, and the employer is not willing to pay according to the regulations, then the risk-taker must also be unwilling to take up such a dangerous and unpaid job. A small percentage of them may choose to return to their hometowns to become farmers or workers. But more definitely have to choose to be robbers and bullies. In the long run, the whole region will become chaotic. Just like Kalinshan in the South. ”
"I really did it wrong?!!" Selie Leph asked with a look of uncertainty. She couldn't believe that her kindness could cause disruption to order.
"Maybe you're in a place like Silvermoon City and Neverwinter City, where kindness is not allocated. But this is Askatra, a city where social status is determined entirely by property, and not only will he not be appreciated much by doing so, but he will also be ridiculed by his employer as a fool. It seems that without Kaidong's teachings, you don't know how to be flexible, and as long as there is a little temptation from evil people, you will immediately make irreparable mistakes. After saying that, Henry shook his head helplessly.
He can see that this holy warrior girl is too simple, and at the same time has the courage to take responsibility, coupled with a natural dead brain, she is simply born for depravity. This kind of character is completely a copy of the tragic protagonist of a certain game, yes, it is the human prince of Warcraft - Arthas, except for the gender, almost identical.
The only difference is that there is a god who is always on the lookout, and it's not too easy to get started. As for Arthas, he is a complete unlucky bastard, calculated from the beginning, unable to be liberated even after death, and becomes a puppet without a soul.
After hearing this reprimand, the young holy warrior girl's eyes instantly turned a little red, and tears rolled in her eyes, as if she had been greatly wronged. After a while, she took a deep breath and stood up and bowed deeply: "Thank you for your teaching, I will try to correct it." ”
"You're welcome, after all, I don't want to see you fall one day. Again, you have to learn to be flexible without violating the teachings of Tyre, as Caton usually does. Okay, let's wipe away our tears and eat, our dish is here. So saying, Henry took out a handkerchief and handed it over. He suddenly found that although Selileph was stubborn, he still had some advantages, at least he could listen to criticism, and he was not at all complacent because he had excellent celestial blood.
Soon, the steaming meal was served on the table, and the already hungry crowd didn't talk nonsense at all, just picked up the cutlery and began to stuff it into their mouths. Since he hadn't eaten a decent meal for too long, Yao En looked like a starving ghost reincarnated, swallowing so fast that he emptied a plate within a few minutes.
Half an hour later, the table was full of leftovers, and the well-fed people sat in their chairs and whispered about the interesting things that happened in the city, ready to rest for a while before leaving. Because they have eaten so much that they can't get up and walk now......
