Outlander's Journey

Chapter 381 Old acquaintance

“Monster of the earthly swamp? You mean [Midgar Python]?”

Heather said strangely: “Didn’t that thing existed a long time ago? I remember that the road paved by the Shinra Company was forced to give up because of the rampage of the Midgar Python.”

Old Bill waved his hand: “No, no, the Midgar python is terrible, but as long as you ride a concealed chocobo or a fast enough vehicle, you can avoid it by luck. I’m talking about a recent one. The monster that just appeared, it appeared near the mortal swamp about half a year ago, and my son and daughter-in-law died at the mouth of this monster.”

Thinking of what Billy and Aller had said before, Heather frowned: “What kind of monster is like?”

“That is a huge monster wolf. It has two blood-red eyes on each side of its cheeks. It has no right ear, and its tail is all broken. Instead, it has a twelve-segment whip-shaped whip made entirely of metal. Long tail, covered with red hard carapace all over.”

Old Bill recalled the tragedy, obviously still fresh:

“This demon wolf is very cunning, knows decoys and outflank tactics, leading a large group of demon wolves to continuously attack the beasts and pedestrians. There are fewer and fewer pedestrians who are willing to take the route of the earthly swamp. Even if a traveler rides a landing bird to pass by and successfully escapes from the earthly swamp, he will send the chocobo to me and spend a lot of money to buy the crossing Zhu Qualification certificate for the special passage between Nong and Midgar for the Shenluo border. That’s right, money is definitely more important than life. Over time, all my chocobos are unsold, and only these are left here. Chocobo…”

The old man was immersed in his own babble, and didn’t notice the weird look of Heather and others in front of him.

Heather, Bullet, and Tifa glanced at each other, with a look of doubt in their eyes. The demon wolf that old Bill said feels so like the demon wolf king who invaded the slums of Qifan Street?

Tifa approached Heather and asked quietly, “Brother, is it really that Demon Wolf King?”

Heather was also a little unsure: “The ears and tail of the Demon Wolf King were indeed torn off by me, and the eyes on both sides of the cheeks were matched. But I had obviously taken the Demon Wolf King to Shinra. The company has changed the summoning stone. With Baotiao’s character, shouldn’t it have been sliced ​​into specimens long ago?”

Claude shook his head: “No, with the character of Baotiao, he prefers to throw test subjects into the wild, survive in extreme environments or attack other creatures indiscriminately, in order to observe their various ability values ​​and make appropriate decisions. evaluation of.”

Alice stuck out her tongue, showing a look of nausea.

“If it’s that guy, it’s true that ordinary people can’t handle it.” Heather nodded and turned to look at old Bill: “Well, we’ll leave this to us.”

“Ugh?”

Old Bill was taken aback for a moment, and then hurriedly dissuaded him: “I tell you this is not for you to be a hero! Even the mercenary team hired by Cam Town was wiped out. That was more than 30 people. The large mercenary gang! Quickly dispel this dangerous idea. If you want to pass through the mortal swamp, I will help you find a way. I know a few officials at the border crossing in Zhunong, maybe…”

“The ears and tail of that thing were torn off by me at the beginning. In fact, if you can kill it without worry, it won’t take 30 seconds to deal with it.”

Heather interrupted Old Bill easily in a tone:

“This guy killed your son and daughter-in-law. Don’t you want to witness how it was killed? Come with us tomorrow and let you sit in the VIP auditorium.”

If someone else said so, old Bill would definitely sneer. However, Heather was the strongest disciple who was admitted by Zangan himself as Qingyuanlan, and these companions of Heather could be recognized by Heather, who was above the top and arrogant, and they must have their own advantages. If there is a real possibility of victory, it will not only rejuvenate Chocobo House, but also avenge the son and daughter-in-law…

I have to say that old Bill was moved.

Billy who was eavesdropping on the side suddenly ran over and said loudly, “I want to go too! I want to see with my own eyes that the monster that ate my parents is killed by Brother Heather!”

A Le followed behind him, although she didn’t speak, her firm eyes showed her intentions.

Now I know to call Big Brother… Heather’s eyes twitched slightly, and he felt the questioning gaze of Old Bill, and shrugged his shoulders indifferently: “No problem, I can guarantee your safety. Bring Ale with you. Well, it would not be safe to leave her alone on the farm.”

Old Bill sighed: “…Then trouble you. Then, what do I need to do?”

Even after seven years, he still clearly remembers Heather’s temperament and character. This guy is a real interest-oriented man, and he has to get something in return for everything.

“Help us clean up a few rooms. We want to spend the night on the farm, and better have a warm meal.”

Heather looked around at the bird stables: “You really don’t have any spare chocobos here?”

Old Bill shook his head: “I will definitely try to provide you with the best food and lodging, but I really can’t do anything about chocobos. These children are kept here by those travelers and paid enough for the feed. I sent the chocobos to the boss of the Chocobo on Midgar’s Walled Commercial Street yesterday, and there is no more left. Speaking of it, Midgar seemed to have made a big noise last night. What’s going on?”

“This is troublesome. Looking at the Eastern Continent, only your chocobo has the highest quality.” Heather frowned.

“Do you use Chocobos in a hurry to participate in the Chocobo Contest at Kingdee Amusement Park?” Old Bill was very keen: “Well, let’s do your business first. I will get you the best race in a week. Use Chocobos to send you to the Kingdee Amusement Park.”

Heather nodded: “In addition to the chocobos for racing, I also need a few black chocobos.”

“Black Chocobo? Are you going to the sky?” Old Bill blew his beard and stared, “Also [a few], do you know how difficult it is to get Black Chocobos?”

Chocobo is a huge bird. The basic features are a long slender neck and a wide beak. Two slender legs and claws are good at running and are often used for riding. Some adult chocobos can even carry several people because of their large size, but they can’t fly because of their degraded wings. Only a special family of black chocobos have the ability to fly.

“Of course I know it’s difficult, so I’m looking for you.” Heather said confidently: “Okay, things are settled, where to go for dinner?”

A Le raised his hand happily: “I’ll lead the way! Does Brother Heather like to eat cream stew?”

Just when everyone was talking and laughing and preparing to leave the feedlot, there was a commotion outside.

Amidst the noise, there were chocobos screaming constantly, mixed with the exclamation of strange girls.
