Volume 4 The First Kuroshio War Chapter 21 Bargaining with Carbonated Drinks......

Gnomes, both men and women, have a relatively sharp voice. Coupled with the fact that he was frightened at the moment, Mildis's voice was as sharp as that of a rooster crowing in the morning.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Stop yelling, stop yelling! Midi! Don't you see that this skeleton is finished? ”

Mirdis howled a few more times before stopping.

"Oh......"

However, before he stopped howling, Fang Qiuling's words made him jump again.

"Found the 'Black Flower'?"

"Nope! No! Mildis didn't look for the 'Black Flower'! Don't 'Black Flower'! No! Mildis's face changed, and his face was horrified, "Youβ€”don't say any more!" Mildis is going home...... Yes, Mildis is coming home! Go home! Go home now! ”

Gnomes are optimistic by nature, and their personalities are not afraid of heaven and earth, and there are few things that can make them truly afraid. What is it that "Black Flower" can scare Mildis like this? Fang Qiuling was a little curious.

"Okay, okay, I won't mention it, I won't mention ......"

Curiosity is curiosity, but Fang Qiuling still calmed the frightened dwarf first. As he spoke, he pulled out a bottle of drink, a lemon-flavored carbonated drink, from his storage bag. Then unscrew the cap and hand it to Mildis.

As described in the player's guidebook, Mildis has indeed just escaped from the Dark Realm of Mamo. The players were unable to confirm what the "Black Flower" was, as Mamo was still an inaccessible area for players at the time, but Mildis was disturbed during teleportation and teleported into the necromancer's belly, which was not mistaken.

I just escaped from the Dark Country, and I also experienced the spatial turbulence after the teleportation interference, and then I was frightened by the sentence "Another trouble" from an acquaintance. A litany of experiences left Mildis exhausted. He is an illusionist, and he has quite a lot of magical powers, but his body is not strong. At the moment he was hungry, thirsty, and exhausted. So without thinking about it, he grabbed the drink handed out by Fang Qiuling, raised his head and poured it.

Whether in this world or Elune, it is best not to accept food and drink from strangers. However, the frightened Mildis obviously didn't care.

A mouthful of sweet water enters the mouth, then runs down the throat into the feeding tube and finally reaches the stomach. Cool and refreshing taste, sweet with hints of lemon, and the kicking sensation characteristic of carbonated drinks...... Mildis was stunned for a moment, and immediately sat down on the ground, holding the drink bottle in both hands and pouring it into his mouth.

Miss Moghley shook her head, and quietly put away the knight's sword in her hand.

- Such a dwarf cannot be a spy.

Although the way it appeared was very weird, he was scared and screamed after a few words, and he took the drink from the stranger very rashly. So saying that such a guy is a spy, then it is the spy organization itself that should be prayed for!

"Midi, you just escaped from there, didn't you?"

Mildis's mood seemed to stabilize a little, and Fang Qiuling also began to trap his words. As he said "there," he pointed to the west. This action made Mildis immediately shiver.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ I'll talk to you about something. ”

"Y-What do you want to do?"

Maybe it was Fang Qiuling's familiar title and terminology, or it could be a novel carbonated drink that he had never drunk, Mildis felt that Fang Qiuling was indeed his acquaintance, but he couldn't remember it. Especially his nickname "Midi", although it is not difficult to guess, but there are really very few people who call it that.

Fang Qiuling didn't say it directly, but flipped over his hand and placed a wooden box in front of Mildis.

"It's the pay. Whether it works out or not, it's all up to you. ”

Mirdis's eyes lit up, and he immediately reached out and grabbed the box in his hand.

Gnomes are curious and generally possess a pair of skillful hands. Traps, especially the intricately designed trap boxes, are arguably their favorites. These instincts make them very good at inventing. Although most of the things that are invented are useless, they can sometimes even pose a danger to themselves - such as a sudden explosion!

The wooden box in front of you has obvious traces of a mechanism on it, and there is a handle on one side, so you can see at a glance that it is a mechanism box. As soon as he saw the box, Mirdis immediately came to his senses, and many negative emotions such as panic and tiredness were directly swept away.

"Just take two laps around here." Fang Qiuling gestured to the small handle on the first floor of the box, "You can have a voice......

Without waiting for Fang Qiuling to finish speaking, Mildis directly turned his small handle. As he moved, the box made a "click" sound of winding it with a clockwork.

Before Mildis could let go of his hand, there was a sound of light music coming from inside the box, and the lid on top of the box was flipped up from side to side, and two small wooden dolls emerged from it, spun and danced on the box.

"What is this?"

Mildis looked rather interested.

"Music box."

Fang Qiuling flicked the buckles on both sides of the box, and the shutters around the music box immediately opened, revealing the lock cylinder and mechanism inside.

"Oh! Oh! ”

Mildis's eyes widened, and his stubby but nimble fingers ran directly to the cylinder.

Gnomes are very fond of trap boxes, and the more elaborate they are, the more they like them. But what they like is that they like to dismantle it, and then disassemble it after dismantling it, and then disassemble it after installing it. Of course, every time you disassemble and assemble, there will inevitably be some small parts that are not installed......

"How? Satisfied? ”

There are several similar music boxes Fang Qiuling, who are ready to befriend the nobles as gifts. However, the nobles haven't seen a few yet, but they have sent one dwarf illusionist after another.

"Good stuff! Great stuff! ”

Mildiston smiled.

"As long as you are satisfied...... Midi, can you do me a favor? ”

"Okay! Yes! Big man, what do you want Mildis to help you with? Go ahead! Mildis will definitely help! ”

Mildis didn't stand up either, just sat on the ground and looked up at Fang Qiuling.

"You're good at prophecy, can you still cast spells today? Help take a look at the ...... of Mamo in the Dark Country" Fang Qiuling thought for a moment before saying, "Where is the vanguard of Mamo's invasion of Calthus. Also, there's been a plague outbreak here recently, so let's see what's going on. ”

"Big man, it's not one favor, it's two!"

Although Mildis was satisfied with Fang Qiuling's gift, he didn't mind ordering anything more.

"Okay, no problem. Two busy, two busy. Fang Qiuling said very generously that it didn't matter, "Do I want to give you another bottle of this, or ...... What else do you want? ”

"I'm going to ...... Two bottles, no! Ten bottles of this! ”

Mildis hesitated for a moment, and quickly made his choice. He held up the empty plastic bottle and motioned for a lemon-flavored carbonated drink.

"Ten bottles? No, no, too many. Up to two bottles. ”

"Nope! Inadequate! Two bottles is too little! Nine bottles! ”

"One price, three bottles!"

"Nope! Eight bottles! No counteroffer! ”

The two of them began to bargain like market vendors, making concessions bottle by bottle, and lowering the price of bottle by bottle.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ Okay, okay. Five bottles is five bottles! Fang Qiuling finally had to make a "concession" and lock the deal at five bottles, and then he added, "I can tell Mina that you took two bottles." ”

When Mildis heard the name "Mina", he was immediately stunned, and an embarrassed look appeared on his face. However, when he heard Fang Qiuling say, "Just take two bottles", he immediately nodded again and again like a chicken pecking rice: "Okay, just do it!" Big man, you're Mildis's best friend! ”

"Hey!" Fang Qiuling gave a thumbs up, "Midi is also my best friend!" ”

One big and one small looked at each other and smiled. There was a slight frustration in Ms. Moghley's eyes.

When she heard the two questions asked by Fang Qiuling just now, Ms. Mogre was quite surprised. The first question directly made her eyes extremely stunned - the legendary country of the undead is actually invading Calthas! And the second question is to turn the consternation in his eyes into contemplation - is there a connection between the invasion of the undead and the sudden outbreak of the plague?

Old Tom and Pastor Ed's faces were also quite unnatural.

Old Tom had just noticed the movement, but he had been observing the situation beforehand. Looking at the current scene, Fang Qiuling obviously reached some agreement with "Little Budian", and Old Tom came over.

Pastor Ed inspected all the houses in the village and came back with a heavy heart. He found several bodies in the largest room in the middle of the village. The corpses were both male and female, and judging by the decomposition, they must have been dead for a long time. There was not a single survivor, which made Pastor Ed's face quite ugly.

Previously, in the cat charm village in the Agarwal Valley, Fang Qiuling "predicted" the invasion of the undead. Although Old Tom and Pastor Ed both expressed disbelief, Fang Qiuling said that he had a nose and an eye, and he did not allow them to disbelieve it. At this moment, taking the path to this unknown small village was also Fang Qiuling's request, saying that there was a necromancer here, who was one of the sources of the plague. They didn't believe it very much, they came here with skepticism. I don't want to be with the undead just after I arrived, and the necromancer even used the self-explosion of the flesh puppet......

Fang Qiuling's idea of letting the little dwarf use prophecy to find out the situation was seen by Old Tom and Pastor Eddard. Although there are also doubts about the accuracy of the results of prophecy, there is still some expectation. However, Fang Qiuling first used the music box to "bribe", and then bargained with the little dwarf. This kind of unscrupulous performance made the two of them invariably blacken.

Bottles of lemon-flavored carbonated drinks were placed on the floor. Every time he put a bottle of drink on the ground, Mildis couldn't wait to hold it in his hand. The drink reached Mildis's hand, and after a turn, it was gone. Obviously, Mildis also has space props in his hands.

In a few moments, the five bottles of drink disappeared from Mildis's hands. The little dwarf smiled from ear to ear, revealing a large and neat tooth.

"Big man, say it again. What do you want to know? ”

"Let's come one by one. The first question, where is the vanguard of the Dark Nation Mamo's invasion of Karthhas now? ”

"Good! No problem! ”
