Hollow Knight: Hallownest

The bench in the game can restore health to full state. Does the one here also have that effect?

Just give it a try, Mo Rong picked up the bone nail and prepared to poke it into himself.

"Dude, what are you doing?!"

Seeing this, Ida quickly used the bone nail to stop it.

"I know it well."

Mo Rong pushed away Ida's bone nails and poked a hole in his own body.

After feeling mentally tired and losing something in his body, Mo Rong felt that he should have "drained his blood".

Mo Rong sat down on the bench with excitement. After waiting for a long time, Mo Rong didn't feel any changes in his body.

"Damn! I was tricked."

Mo Rong really believes that this bench can 'restore blood', but it seems that the game and reality are still different.

"Oh, let's go, let's go, blood loss~"

Ida couldn't help but shake her head when she saw that Mo Rong had been busy for a while inexplicably, mutilating himself and sighing.

I need to make some money quickly. Look at me, I'm so poor.

......

Following Mo Rong, the two of them soon arrived at the crossroad market where they had arrived during the previous shipment. It was like a hub, with a huge flow of people every day, at least it seemed like this these two times.

The routes behind the map all lead to the mountain peak. They no longer need it, but Mo Rong has no intention of throwing it away. He will go to the mountain peak if he has the chance.

"Hello, could you please tell me how to get to Ditmouth?"

"If you go straight over there, you'll see an elevator when you turn the corner. It's up there."

"Okay, thank you."

Morong stopped a random person on the street, learned the route and then walked forward. After seeing the elevator that the person mentioned, the two finally arrived at Dirtmouth.

In the game, Ditmouth is located between the Howling Cliffs and the Crystal Peaks. It is in a low-lying position, like a basin. I don’t know if it is for this reason that Ditmouth is haunted by ghosts that cannot be dissipated all year round. fog.

Mo Rong felt this when he first came up. The air around him was much moister.

"Oh? Are you a guest from the kingdom?"

Standing beside the elevator, an old man said to them.

"Yes, old man."

Mo Rong looked at it and realized that the person in front of him was obviously not the insect elder. The insect in his mind was guarding the abandoned Dirtmouth.

"Hahaha, welcome. Most of the people here are foreign travelers. People like you who come from the kingdom are really rare."

The old man pointed to the top of his head and smiled.

Looking in the direction pointed by the old man, Mo Rong was stunned for a moment.

"I'm going to kill you~"

I saw that the sky over Ditmouth was suddenly divided into two parts by a bridge spanning the east and west. Looking to both sides of the bridge, I couldn't see the end of it. Looking further into the distance, Mo Rong discovered the bridge. It actually connects the two peaks on the left and right of Ditmouth!

Ida looked in the direction of Mo Rong and was also stunned.

"This, this is?"

"It's spectacular. Pilgrims who originally came to Hallownest from outside had to walk a long and winding journey to get here. But since the king established Hallownest, this bridge has appeared here. It's the first time I've seen it. By then, I will be even more shocked than you."

The old man said cheerfully.

"Go ahead, I believe Dirtmouth will not disappoint you either."

After that, the old man stood where he was, waiting for the next traveler to arrive.

Mo Rong came back to his senses and remembered the main purpose of coming here.

"Ida, where is the order form? Take it out."

"oh oh."

Ida handed the order form to Mo Rong, who then placed the order form in front of the old man.

"Old man, do you know where this address is?"

Mo Rong asked, pointing to a part of the order form.

The old man took a close look at the order form and said:

"Oh, you are here to find him. Well, there is a road sign that says 'Sly Martial Arts School'. Just follow the direction."

"Okay, thank you, uncle."

After that, the two of them walked towards the client's address according to the street sign pointed by the old man.

Ditmouth is very similar to the uninhabited village that Morong met at the crossroads before, but it is many times larger than that, and there are many people. After passing by a dozen low-rise houses, Morong finally saw the destination. land.

There was a wooden sign next to an ordinary low house with the four characters "Slai Martial Arts School" engraved on it. Mo Rong went over and knocked on the door, waiting thoughtfully.

"Sly? What a familiar name..."

The door of the room in front of them slowly opened, and a short body with a head on top of his head appeared in front of the two people.

Ida saw Mo Rong in a daze, went up and said with a smile:

"Kid, where is your adult? He... uh uh uh!"

When Ida was speaking, Mo Rong also came back to his senses, looked at the figure in front of him, and quickly covered Ida's speaking mouth.

"what?"

Ida was confused by the sudden hand. When she saw Mo Rong, she bowed and said:

"I'm sorry, Master Sly. My friend doesn't know you. I don't mean to offend. Please forgive me."

"What did you say? Confused?"

"What nonsense, apologize!"

Mo Rong slapped Ida on the forehead and said angrily.

Seeing Mo Rong's serious look, Ida muttered a little aggrievedly:

"Can't you just talk nicely? What are you doing?"

At the same time, he bowed to Sly and said:

"I'm sorry, Master!"

The short figure in front of him is none other than Sly, the Bone Nail Sage who has taught the three Bone Nail Masters in the game and mastered bone Nails himself.

"You are not the first to misunderstand. It's okay. I don't care."

"What do you want from me?"

Slay looked at the two of them doubtfully, and Mo Rong regretted in his heart. He never thought that this commission was for Slay to be his sparring partner.

No wonder no one accepted this commission. If he knew the target was Sly, he wouldn't accept it even to death. But there is no other way. If they change the commission, they will have to spend a fortune.

Murong was cruel, took out the order form and handed it to Sly.

"We are here to complete the commission."

Sly took a look at the order sheet in Mo Rong's hand with some doubts, and suddenly realized.

"I almost forgot about this. Come in."

The two of them followed Sly into the house. Ida looked at the surrounding decorations, frowned and whispered to Mo Rong:

"Isn't the space here a little too small..."

"Don't worry, our home court is not here, come with me."

Sly replied.

"..."

Ida didn't dare to speak. Sly heard Ida's whisper behind him and leaned over to open a secret door on the floor.

The three of them passed through a dark tunnel. As the lights in front gradually became clearer, Mo Rong could see clearly the environment they were in.

This is a basement that is much larger than the space of the house outside. There are many boxes inside. Looking inside, you can vaguely see a few candles as high as two people.

"Apprentices! Come here!"

Following Sly's shout, three figures slowly walked out of the darkness.

"Let me introduce to you my three apprentices, Xio, Mato and Oro."

"These two are..."

Slay paused, and Mo Rong hurriedly said:

"My name is Mo Rong, and this is Ida next to me."

"Yes, these two are the sparring partners I hired for you."

"A sparring partner for them? Aren't they with you?"

"If you can beat me, you can be my sparring partner."

Sly laughed.

Mo Rong was shocked for a while, and then he had the feeling that if he survived the catastrophe, there would be consequences.

It turns out that he is not working as a sparring partner for Sly, so he can rest assured... What a fool!

To be a sparring partner for the three nail masters in front of you? It would be better to be a sparring partner for Sly alone. Mo Rong was on the verge of tears.

Sly dismissed his disciples, turned around and said to the two of them:

"Starting from tomorrow, you two will be my three apprentices' sparring partners. You must come to my place on time every afternoon."

"Although the bone nail technique I taught them is deadly, I will replace their bone nails with unsharpened ones, so you can rest assured that this job will not be too dangerous."

"I don't include food and accommodation here. After you finish your work every day, come to me to receive a reward of one hundred euros. It's up to you two to decide how to divide it."

"That's it for now, do you understand?"

The two nodded after hearing this. As expected, it was Gio who could soothe their anxious moods.

"By the way, I am a relatively open-minded person and will not prevent you from learning those skills during the sparring process without my guidance."

Sly showed a meaningful smile, and then let the two of them leave on their own.

......

The two people who walked out of the house were still in a daze.

"Ida, what did the master just say?"

"He seemed to say that not only would we get money, but we could also secretly learn his skills."

"!!!"
