Chapter 5 Departure

Seven days went by in a flash. In the past few days, Henry has made a total of six potions for minor injuries, two bottles of hypnotic potions, two bottles of blessing potions, and Cagan has carried half of them. He also copied four first-level spell scrolls, Greasy Spell, Burning Hands, Magic Missile, and Imagery. The Divine Scroll prepares two pieces of Faith armor, one Stone Power Volume, and two Sanctuary Techniques and two Entanglement Techniques.

In the past few days, I have also purchased materials to summon the demon chong in the temple of the god of knowledge, Oumar, and performed the ritual of summoning the demon chong. After the ceremony, he was given a pickle-spirit called Louise. It is a small humanoid life, the height of an adult's palm. It has a pair of wings and can fly quickly. Converse in the Wood language and become proficient in lockpicking and scouting. Due to its small size, it is a good helper for some delicate magic tests. However, Henry felt that the fundamental reason why he summoned Louis was because of the relationship between another profession, the druid.

After looking at Henry's backpack and weapons and finding nothing wrong, the dwarf said, "The last time I checked it, I had all the items. The bow and crossbow are wound. Let's go! With that, Cagan stood up and walked out of the house. Henry followed him out of the room. The week's break has finally passed. "Good luck to you," the old dwarf on the first floor shouted when he saw the two of them.

"Xie Lu Xie, next time I pass by here, I will come to see your old fellow." Cagan waved his hand without looking back. "Thank you, Mr. Bantri, and I wish you a prosperous business." Henry said, turning his head and bowing slightly. In Henry's view, politeness is a good disguise that can make others lower their vigilance, after all, he is not the rookie boy who is only 14 years old.

Leaving the gate of the Friendly Arm, the two headed north. Henry hung the crossbow around his waist and the strap of his crossbow bolts tied behind his back. The spear is held in the hand and used as a crutch when the tip of the hair is applied to the cane. Several bottles of potion are attached to the belt for easy access at any time. Cagan wore a horned helmet and axe pinned to his waist, a sturdy wooden foreskin on his left shoulder, and a duffel bag on his right shoulder. He was meant not to use a shield, which was specially prepared for this mission. Burgers are capable of spraying acid. Iron shields are not corrosion-resistant, so the Dwarves made one in the Friendly Arm.

It was almost noon when the two decided to sit down and rest for a while. "At our current rate, we'll be able to eat tomorrow afternoon in the Digger Village. It's spring time for burrowers to come into heat, and they're very aggressive right now. Be careful when you are in a hurry, once you get caught in the huge mouthparts, you will definitely die. During the break, Cagan hurried to tell Henry about the dangers of the mission, and he was frightened by the injury he had been injured the other day.

"I know Cagan, I've been through two battles, and I'm no longer a rookie in that fight." Henry replied with a helpless nod. The old dwarf also felt that Henry had matured a lot since his injury. Especially the battle with the goblins. The spells were used perfectly. While most dwarves don't like magic, unless it's enchanted into weapons and armor. At noon, Henry made 2 gallons of water] put the jerky and mushrooms picked in the woods in a pot and stewed briefly, and after eating some dry bread, the two continued on their way.

By about two o'clock the next afternoon, the two reached the outskirts of the village, and Henry could already see the houses and the smoke in the distance. "We're almost there, so be careful from now on. At any moment, a burrower will emerge from the dirt to give you a surprise attack. With that, Cagan took the shield off his back, clenched it with his left hand, and pulled the axe from his belt.

Seeing that the dwarven warriors had begun to prepare for battle, Henry also quickly took off the crossbow from his waist and put in a crossbow arrow. The spear was clenched tightly, and it was no longer used as a crutch. Picojing Louise was also sent to the front to reconnoiter due to her small size and agility. It didn't take long for him to fly back and report to Henry what was ahead.

Henry frowned and said, "Cagan, we're in trouble. Louise told me that the dirt road ahead was a mess. I think there should be two digging bugs. ”

The dwarf was taken aback and said, "Two? Damn, that's not good news. There are only two of us at a time, and it's better to deal with one at a time, but it's a bit dangerous if there are more. After saying that, he touched his beard and began to think of a way.

"I think I can set up a trap and prepare a greasy technique first. Then you go and lure the two bugs over and cast another entanglement. Their shells are smooth and they get tangled in grass and vines after they fall, and it's almost hard to get up, so we can kill them one by one. What do you think. Henry thought for a moment and made a suggestion.

"It's a good idea, you can give it a try." The dwarven warriors themselves are not very cerebral people, and they immediately agree with it.

Since there was no problem with the plan, the two began to implement it. The dwarven warrior unloaded his unnecessary weight and began to run forward, and the Jedi had little visual power. The main thing is to feel the vibration of the ground to confirm the enemy's position. It didn't take long for Cagan to run back. As he ran, he shouted "Henry! They're coming right behind me. Then I saw two large green insects three meters long waving huge mouthparts chasing after me.

The spell that had been prepared for a long time was cast, and it accurately skipped the dwarves running in front of it, and a large cloud of magical grease appeared behind it. The two insects slipped and couldn't get up no matter how hard they struggled. After casting the spell, Henry threw the short spear in his hand and stabbed one of the fragile jaws. The big bug that was hit screamed and began to struggle desperately. When you see the target hit, you immediately start focusing on casting, and after a few seconds, you are ready to complete it. "Entanglement" instantly grew countless strong grass on the ground, pulling the two insects to the ground, and in the process of one of the struggles, the short spear collided with the ground and was instantly inserted into the brain and died. Cagan, who had been protecting Henry's spell, saw that there was only one left, so he threw the axe in his hand out of the axe and slashed directly into the abdomen, and the green juice splashed everywhere. The two hurriedly hid far away.

It didn't take long for the effect to wear off, and the life of the bug that was broken by the opening came to an end. Cagan slowly approached the corpse with his shield on his short legs, walked up to him and touched the two bugs with his shield, but he was relieved when he saw no movement. Picking up his axe, he shook the disgusting green slime and shouted at Henry, "It's all dead, it's safe, come and dispose of our shells." As long as the head and north front a few pieces of the hardest others each use. ”

Seeing that there was no danger, Henry also came over, drew the spear from his jaw and rubbed it vigorously under his boot. Begin to observe the bugs. The front end of the huge head is the mouth, and the outer mouthparts on it are like a pair of pliers. Once the dense jagged teeth are caught, it will definitely make you feel that life is worse than death. Most of the abdomen does not have hard armor, and the hardest parts of the body are the head and a few dorsal armors near here.

After observing, he took out the dagger and began to clean it up with Cagan, cutting off the stomach and lower body directly, and then digging out all the internal organs and belly of the upper body. Only a few of the hardest shells of the skull and back remained. Two gallons of water were then made, the shell was cleaned, and rope was tied up. The shell of the burrower is not heavy, but its defense is not inferior to that of steel armor, so it can be said that it is a good material that is both light and hard, and it is also resistant to acid.

Cagan put the shell on his back, and his mood suddenly improved, and said, "Ha, Ha, 1,000 gold coins are here." Moradin willing, that's a good sign. If we have enough loot, hire a wagon when we come back. You've done a great job, even though I don't know any spells. But it feels like Irminster is possessed. The dwarf was visibly getting too excited, and the sycophants slapped over one after the other.

"Cagan, I don't think we can kill too many bugs. This village relies on digging insects to keep the land fertile and the grain abundant. We can't upset the balance of nature," replied Henry, shaking his head helplessly. What the dwarf said is obviously impossible, as a druid, if he really kills these bugs, he will probably lose the druid profession.

"Damn, I forgot that you were a child of nature. Anyway, let's go to the village for a night's rest, and by the way, ask the druids in charge of this place how many can be killed. Cagan was frustrated when he heard that he couldn't kill the bugs.

It wasn't long before the two of them arrived at the village, and after a brief inquiry, they went to Brown's farm to spend the night. Because the whole village is the largest of Brown's farms and houses. When he arrived at Brown's house, Henry saw a farmer about fifty years old working in the fields. Henry hurriedly stepped forward to say hello.

"Hello, is this Mr. Brown? We're adventurers who come here to hunt digging bugs. Would like to spend the night with you. We'll pay for the accommodation and dinner. ”

The old man nodded and said, "Yes, I'm Brown." No problem for the night, my house is big and there are enough rooms. 1 silver coin per person with dinner. When he saw that there was money to be made, he immediately agreed. Dinner was bread, mashed potatoes, and a pot of stewed chicken, which was hearty. After eating, the three of them sat by the fireplace and chatted.

The old man touched his hair and said, "I have a son who is also your age, and he went to the city with his mother to sell agricultural products a few days ago. In recent years, the number of digging bugs has become particularly high, so the road is dangerous. ”

"Isn't there a druid here who controls their numbers all the time?" Henry asked with some confusion when he heard the news.

"It's a druid named Kitty here, but there's a limit to how much power one can have. Digging bugs are not something that ordinary adventurers can handle. Especially in the past few years, many adventurers have died at the hands of bugs, so no one dares to come in the last two years. Brown explained.

Henry hurriedly asked, "Where does that druid live?" We wanted to talk to him about the number of burrowers here. ”

Brown pointed out the window and said, "It's not far northwest of the farm, where she built a tree house." ”
