As the last rays of the setting sun disappeared into the horizon, the night once again gained dominance of the sky, the bright moonlight and the stars shimmered with silver-white brilliance, and it seemed to be quiet with a little sacredness, and the noisy woods slowly became quiet, and the nocturnal animals quietly left their nests, searching aimlessly, trying to find something to fill their shriveled stomachs in the early spring when food was scarce.

Dinner for adventurers is simple and most of the time local ingredients are used. As an experienced captain, Kahlan had already shot a few hares with a dagger while on his way, and then found a large number of non-poisonous mushrooms in the depths of the cave, so that the delicious rabbit mushroom soup was all right.

He stared at the broth in the iron pot as he pulled out a few rusks from his backpack and handed them out to his teammates, while carefully removing the salt from the leather bag.

For those who have been camping in the wilderness for a long time, there is nothing more important in this world than salt. After all, there is a lack of food to hunt, mushrooms and wild vegetables can be gathered, and water sources are not difficult to find, but salt is different, once the salt supply is not available for more than ten days, then no matter how powerful the strong man will lose appetite, limbs weakness, dizziness and nausea, and vomiting, blurred vision, muscle spasms and so on may also occur.

Therefore, people with a little common sense know that salt in the wild is always a material that needs to be protected, and the price of this thing in the Faren Continent is very expensive, especially the impurity-free sea salt in Kalan's bag, which was actually sold for fifteen gold coins per kilogram, which is like a robbery.

However, in order for the players to ensure good physical condition, he still gritted his teeth and chose the best, as for those five gold coins a kilogram. Forget about the cheap stuffed with sand. Once you accidentally eat it, it will affect your stomach and combat effectiveness, which is not good.

"Damn! Every time I put salt in food, it felt like someone was cutting my flesh with a knife. Karan grabbed a small bite, spilled it into the soup, and muttered to himself.

"Hah! Don't worry too much about what's outside of you. What's more, this time the client paid a lot of money, a full fifteen hundred gold coins, which is already quite extravagant for exploring the ruins. Demps teased with a smile on his face.

Kahlan glared at the warrior monk angrily: "Bastard, don't compare us to you, you are a believer in the God of Suffering, and you don't need any weapons and armor, just a sackcloth that can cover your body." But I still have to support my family, and you know the amount of food in the rice bucket. There wasn't enough to feed his big belly. ”

As the saying goes, if you don't know that firewood, rice, oil and salt are expensive. Since he often went to the market to buy necessary supplies, maintain armor, repair weapons, etc., he knew how terrible the cost was.

Fifteen hundred gold coins don't sound like a lot, but in fact, it would be good to have one thousand two left after the cost of the round-trip journey, and the average score of the four people was only a little over three hundred.

Exploring ancient ruins can be dangerous, with countless hidden labyrinths, traps, and monsters that can kill you if you're not careful.

"Hey, uncle, if you want to make more money, why don't you accept my employment? As long as you take us on an adventure, I'll give you a magic item in return. Liv asked with a grin.

The clever girl clearly saw that the adults wanted to leave her in a safe place. Therefore, he did not hesitate to resort to the killer weapon - the silver bullet offensive.

"Thank you, but I don't want to be hunted down by your powerful father. So forget it. Kahlan barely hesitated, immediately shaking his head and refusing.

Ever since he deduced that the magic items on the two little Lori's bodies were secretly taken out, he never had the slightest idea of snooping. After all, no matter how good things are, they have to be used for life, and the anger of a great (mage) master above the seventeenth level is not something they can afford.

Seeing that the other party did not take the bait, Liv rolled her eyes, and immediately took out a silver ring from the backpack behind her.

Unlike most ordinary rings, it is made of pure Mithril, and the inside is densely engraved with patterns of unknown meaning, and the most puzzling thing is that there are no gems on it, and the bare surface looks like some kind of inferior product, which is not beautiful at all.

Just when everyone wondered what it was for, Liv put it on her thumb and shouted, "Shield!" ”

In an instant, the pattern on the inside of the ring flashed a magical aura, and then the surface of the Mithril ring quickly opened like a blooming flower, and after just a second, a circular shield with a diameter of more than one meter was formed, and there was even a raised spike in the middle part, which could pierce the enemy's chest with a single force, which was definitely a great killing weapon.

Moreover, the shield is all composed of thin pieces of Mithril with sharp blades like jagged edges, which can be used to block or kill enemies, making it a perfect piece of equipment for both attack and defense.

But its power is not limited to this, the girl in the next few minutes, respectively, showed a series of weapon forms such as swords, axes, scimitars, spears, daggers, etc., which stunned everyone for a while, and Karan, who is good at using shields, almost even drooled to the ground, and her two eyes stared directly at the ring.

He swore that he was the most excited in his life except for the wedding day, because this magic object was almost as if it was made for him, too perfect and too suitable......

"How? Uncle must have liked this magic ring. As long as you promise to take us along to explore the ruins, it's yours. After the show, Liv said with a playful face.

This sentence made Kahlan quickly come back to his senses, hurriedly wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth, and asked in great confusion: "You...... Are you sure I'll be fine with this magic item? ”

"Of course, my father himself doesn't know what is in the warehouse, not to mention that this ring is not very powerful, even if there is trouble, I will resist the responsibility, absolutely no problem." Liv swore an oath.

In fact, she didn't know that the warehouse she secretly broke into was only specially arranged by Tyrantil, and there were basically no too dangerous and high-end goods. This ring is considered pretty good of all the items. Because the Mithril weapon is inherently equivalent to a level 3 enchantment. A light yì can cut through an iron sword of poor quality.

In order to be able to participate in a real adventure, the girl has already given up, and even prepared in her heart to be punished if she is caught.

"Hey...... Hope you're not lying. Well, I'll accept this commission, and you can go with you to the Viper Mountains. But there is one thing that must be declared in advance, absolutely obey orders on the road, and do not do anything dangerous. ”

In the end, Kahlan could not resist the temptation, and weapons were a second life for any adventurer. What's more, this ring can also be transformed into various forms of armor, and if you miss it, you will definitely regret it for the rest of your life. He finally realized why so many elite adventurers would take the mission even though they knew it was extremely dangerous, and the reward was too tempting without him.

After receiving an affirmative reply, Liv jumped up excitedly waving her little fists: "Hooray! I promise to obey orders, uncle, and I will do whatever you tell me to do. ”

Elenia also hurriedly stood up and echoed, "I promise not to cause trouble for everyone. ”

"Hehe, little girl, I'm not worried about you at all. Because you look like a good boy. Kahlan smiled bitterly and comforted the nervous elf Lori.

As an experienced warrior, he is not afraid of being accidentally injured by arrows, even if the arrows fired by the opponent will explode. As long as you predict the landing point in advance, you will be fine, and the magic that is difficult to control is the most worrying problem. Keep in mind that mages are very dangerous for both enemies and teammates. Especially those apprentices who hold high-level magic items and scrolls.

"Hey! Uncle, am I not a good boy? Liv asked aloud, unconvinced.

"Good boy?" Karan's face was smiling and crying. "Will a good child take something from the house and sneak out?"

"Humph! I just want to see the outside world. Who let my father be biased and let my brother go to the north to train, but he didn't give me a chance. Liv's eyes were full of resentment, and she took off the ring in her hand and threw it over. Here, this is the reward promised to you, uncle, and I will definitely prove to everyone that I am no worse than my brother. ”

Hearing this obviously childish remark, a faint smile appeared on the faces of several adults. They all know very well that the little guy at this age is particularly reluctant to admit defeat, so it is not so strange that he wants to run out and take the risk of becoming famous.

Kahlan gently stroked the magic ring he had just put on his hand, and then said, "In that case, then I'll pass you on some experience by the way." Know that adventure is not an easy thing to do, combat is only a small part of it, it is more about how to survive in harsh conditions, find and avoid deadly traps and enemies in advance, because nothing is more important than being alive. ”

He felt that since he had received such a valuable reward, he should fulfill his obligation, at least so that the two girls could learn some knowledge after completing the task.

Elf Lori asked curiously, "How can I find traps and enemies in advance?" ”

"That's right! Yes! Uncle, hurry up! Liv urged.

"Haha! This is a profound knowledge, and you are not yet in time to learn it. Take it one step at a time, eat first. After eating, learn the first lesson of becoming an adventurer, which is the vigil. Camping in the dangerous wilderness can be unpredictable monsters and beasts at any time, so shift vigils are the most basic common sense. As he spoke, Kahlan took out the wooden bowl that had been prepared and filled each of the two little girls with a bowl of rabbit meat and mushroom soup. Eat, don't be too picky in the wild, you should be thankful for a bite of the hot. ”

Although Liv, who has always been pampered, kept frowning, she still managed to eat her share, and Elenia was not much worse, and the broth cooked without spices and condiments was oily and fishy, and it was really hard for them to not vomit it.

The girls' cousins won Karan's approving gaze, and he drove the two little loli to the entrance of the cave, and taught them some things to look out for in the vigil, before returning to the campfire to close their eyes and recuperate.

Sitting at the mouth of the cave and looking at the stars, Liv and Elenia began their first vigil, along with Dorothy, the elven retriever who was always by their side.

Little did the two of them know that inside the Mage Tower at Baldur's Gate, Tyrantil was watching their every move with a smile on her face and a magic mirror......
