The cat-eared cloak she wore was very cute, white knee socks and purple soft long hair were faintly visible under the cloak, and she was also wearing a black robe standing next to Xia Long like a brother and sister or a father and daughter.
The name Anna was given to her by Merlin, because she didn't want everyone to know her original name. Medusa was the name of a monster, and she didn't want to be, or in other words, she didn't want to be a monster.
"Let me see what today's task is... help the granny next door to milk the cows?" Fujimaru Tachika looked up at the few people, saying who would like to go?
Gilgamesh did not arrange combat tasks for them. It seemed that he planned to let them start from the grassroots, and most of them were daily tasks.
The mad king Cu Chulainn showed off the thorns on his body, saying that if he squeezed the thorns by himself, the cow might be squeezed into a steak.
Arturia shook her head, saying that she was better at farm things, because she often went to play on the farm when she was a child.
Joan took a step forward, saying that it's time to show her real skills, and now she will show you what a French village girl is.
System prompt: Joan of Arc has received the task [milking a cow], and the current progress is 0/10.
"The second mission..... Crusade against Muxiu Huxiu on the North Wall...Who will go?"
Cu Chulainn raised the spear of Deaththorn, eager to try.
System prompt: Cu Chulainn has received the task [crusade against Muxiu Huxiu], the current progress is 0/50
"The third mission... The newly opened specialty snack shop in Uruk is recruiting tasters with big appetites... Forget it, I get it, Artoria, you can go."
System prompt: Artoria has received the task [tasting food], the current progress is 0/∞
"Ah, there is only one last task left." Fujimaru Lixiang handed the power of attorney to Xia Long.
"Let me see... deliver fresh pies across the city? Isn't this the delivery guy? All right, I'm good at this, leave it to me."
"Anna should also help out. The workload seems to be quite large, and he may not be able to handle it alone."
".....it is good."
System prompt: Xia Long & Anna have received the task [delivery delivery], the current progress is 0/999
"Is the business of this store so hot?!" Xia Long glanced at the delivery list and almost fainted from fright.
"It's like this. The personnel in various positions are working at their maximum capacity now, so your job is to deliver the prepared meals to them." Siduri, the head priest in charge of issuing tasks, explained patiently.
"Did no one deliver it before then?"
"some."
"What about people?"
"Tired."
"........."
Xia Long felt that it was a good thing that he took on this task, and it would be strange if other people were not tired. Running around the city without transportation and delivering hundreds of takeaways a day, is this the life of a human being?
Anna has been following behind him without saying a word, but occasionally she can see her eyes cast here unconsciously, probably she is paying attention quietly.
When two men in black robes, one big and one small, came to the owner of the pie shop, the shirtless Uruk man was visibly startled.
Is this tm going to deliver food or rob?
"Please leave it to us." Xia Long gave him a thumbs up.
"Please... please." The boss handed the pie to them in a daze.
A special trolley was filled with a large box of hot pies, Xia Long was pushing the trolley behind, and Anna... foolishly arranged by Xia Long to sit on the front of the trolley as auspicious things.
"What the hell am I doing..." Anna sat in the car dizzy.
Dong dong dong
The solid wooden door was pushed open, and the busy Uruk staff opened the door with a fairy face: "Today's meal has finally been delivered... huh?"
Usually, the person who delivered the food was an equally weak young man who weakly took out a roll of pie from the trolley and handed it to him, but today......
A cute and petite girl in black robe sat at the front of the trolley. She turned around and took out a piece of pie from her back. The sweet and pleasant voice said in a cold voice on purpose: "Here, your pie."
"Oh... oh oh oh." The Uruk staff suddenly felt refreshed.
Such a grotesque scene appeared on the streets of Uruk—a tall man in black robes was pushing a food delivery trolley, and a girl also wrapped in black robes was sitting in the front of the trolley. The girl would sit in the car and knock on the door, then take out a pie from the car box behind her and stuff it into the other party's hand.
"Anna, what do you think of this city?" Xia Long glanced at the map in his hand, confirmed the location of the next house, and asked while pushing the cart.
"Hmm... There are a lot of people, so it can be said to be full of energy. Besides, the pies seem to be delicious."
"Oh, then you can try it. The note from the boss said that it also contains our portion. Beef pie. It tastes very good."
"just forget it........"
"This is the reward for your work, and if you don't eat it, it will be wasted. Do you want to let such a delicious pie go to waste?"
".....All right."
Anna pulled out a piece of cake from behind, and chewed it in her mouth in small bites.
It was unexpectedly delicious, and Anna couldn't help but ate a few more mouthfuls. Sitting in front of the cart and shaking her calves, she felt a feeling called pleasure.
The pies in the trolley were almost full, they went back and forth to the pie shop several times, the steaming pies were delivered again and again, this time was the last time, the sky was getting dark, Torches were lit on the side of the road, and even as night fell, Uruk didn't feel a little tired.
"Anna, isn't this city beautiful?" After delivering the last burrito, Xia Long asked while leaning on the handlebar of the cart.
"Is it beautiful...it should be considered beautiful." Anna didn't know what was considered beautiful. She only spent her life on that small island, and her understanding of human beings was limited to those adventurers who came to kill her because of their reputation. There are many stories I also listened to my sisters.
But if it is beautiful to feel comfortable after looking at it, then she thinks that Uruk is still beautiful.
"How precious are beautiful things... Such precious things should always exist. If someone wants to destroy this beauty, I will never agree." Xia Long clapped his hands and looked up. Looking at the night sky: "At this moment, there must be people looking up at the deep night sky like me. Fighting so that they can keep looking at the beautiful sky like this in the future nights, maybe this is our mission."
Chapter 240 The Meaning of Barbecue
During the few days in Uruk, Xia Long felt like he had become an RPG player. His daily task was to take loli to deliver food, occasionally help the old lady cross the road, or kill a chicken.
As time passed, people in Uruk gradually got to know these two strange delivery men wrapped in black robes. From early morning to night, they could see two men in black robes, one big and one small, pushing a small trolley. Running back and forth in the city.
At the beginning, Anna was still very cautious, but after she got used to it, she let go. Every day, she sat in front of the cart and dangled her little feet, holding a road map in her hand to guide Xia Long forward and back. He opened the door, pulled out today's meal from behind and handed it to the hard-working staff.
"Turn left at the intersection ahead, go straight, there is an old lady crossing the road, slow down." Anna said holding a map like a navigator on a small cart.
Xia Long was stunned to play the small cart with the feeling of a truck. Sometimes it was fast, sometimes it was as gentle as the wind, sometimes it drifted with sparks at the intersection of sharp turns, and sometimes it gave way to pedestrians on the straight road.
However, just like RPG games will not always let you do daily tasks, the main mission will eventually come. Gilgamesh issued a new mission to them. A large rainforest grew inexplicably in the south of Uruk. The plants that should have appeared actually covered the land on a large scale, which is definitely an abnormal situation.
Gilgamesh sent Amakusa Shiro and Fuma Kotaro to investigate before, but the two have not returned yet, obviously cold, so this time Gilgamesh plans to send several people from Chaldea.
Apart from them, Gilgamesh has no suitable candidates for the time being. He himself is basically unable to leave his post. If it is just a short trip, it is okay. If he can't come back to travel, he can't travel willfully now.
With his personality, he wanted to explore as a brave man rather than busy here as a king, but he is a king first, and a hero second.
The mission is scheduled to start tomorrow morning. The degree of danger is unknown. Chaldea is indeed very strong, but no one knows what danger is waiting for them in the dense forest. The unknown is always the most terrifying.
Several people finished today's tasks, stretched their tired bodies and met again in the room.
"We're going to the jungle tomorrow, are you ready?" Fujimaru Tachika asked while sitting at the small round table.
"Yes, I have prepared anti-insect measures for seniors. There are a lot of insects in the dense forest. Da Vinci personally said that the insects in the Age of Gods may die if bitten." Mash's plan is always the master's first.
"Of course you can't go hungry if you want to fight. I've already prepared the rations for the next three days." Arturia carried out a sack.
"I'm fine anyway." Anna muttered softly.
"So we're going to fight tomorrow. Are we going to spend the night in an ordinary way?" Xia Long suddenly slapped the table, then stood up abruptly, twisted his body at an incredible angle, and put his hand on his forehead: "Today Let's have barbecue tonight!"
"......." Fujimaru Lixiang opened his mouth wide, and began to think about why this man who was so cold a few days ago was letting himself go so freely.
He certainly didn't know what a non-combat knight was like.
Some are usually full of force, but when they heard that their sister had a boyfriend, they burst into flames in an instant and lost all force. Some fought and pretended to be coquettish, but they were defeated by a bowl of hot noodle soup when they were eating. ...and some are honest at all times.
There are some men who can have a heated fight with their seniors one second, and then break the street signs and become the ultimate savior in the next second. They are deflated, hit the street, and betrayed in one go. They are heroes among knights.
The originally depressing atmosphere suddenly became cheerful because of the upcoming expedition. In fact, there is no place to eat barbecue in Uruk. Everyone knows this. The resources in the city are actually very tight, and meat is precious. Food, a sprinkling of minced meat in a pie is amazing, where's the extra meat for grilling?
But it is also very strange to say, since ancient times, there has been a word called "popular", which means that everyone loves to eat barbecue. The world is so big, there are so many customs, and the eating habits of different places are different. This thing is just very popular, and it has been that way since ancient times.
Perhaps it is because a long time ago, the happiest thing for the ancestors was to be able to successfully hunt prey, and to share barbecue with their companions around the fire at night. The warm and bright flames brought warmth and drove away dangerous beasts at the same time. What comes is not only the peace of today, but also the feeling called hope.
Sometimes someone may find that no matter how dark the environment is, lighting a fire and having a few people around him will inexplicably give him courage and strength. Maybe thousands of years ago, there was a person who lit a fire in front of the fire. I have the courage to continue my life until today.
So Yakiniku Taro's sentence "Let's eat barbecue tonight" is full of hope and courage for the future, he is really a hero! (vibrating sound)
The same is true of Uruk now. The Three Goddess Alliance has surrounded this lonely city. There will be no reinforcements, and there will be no day for them to retreat. Uruk can only usher in perdition in this darkness. , but people still ignited the last fire, and continued to fight for the sliver of hope that hardly existed. It is precisely because of this spirit that this place is one of the birthplaces of human civilization.
Even though it is surrounded by darkness, it still advances bravely. Human civilization is ignited from such glorious places. First, four fires are ignited on the earth, and then these fires burn all over the earth like a prairie fire. Finally, With the future human civilization.
Xia Long was in the ancient city of Uruk and became the one who witnessed the history with his own eyes. The history of human beings fighting wild beasts with torches was vividly interpreted at this moment, but now the wild beasts were replaced by even more terrifying monsters.
The atmosphere in the room was very active, and the people in Chaldea had already experienced countless hardships. To this day, Tatsuka Fujimaru still remembers that at the sixth singularity, Artoria saw the man on the city wall. How shocking was the figure holding the Holy Lance. The king who held the Holy Sword and the Holy Lance met at that moment, but what ushered in was not peace and understanding, but fighting and fighting.
They have experienced torture and struggle in their hearts, but in the end they all understand the path they want to take. This path is dangerous, but they have to go. Tomorrow is the day when they go to war, but they believe that they will never lose. It is so difficult We have come a long way, so what are these things now?
Xia Long sat in the room and chatted with them, using a false voice to prevent Joan from recognizing him. Everyone shared the stories they encountered on their previous journeys. history.
Chapter 240 The Meow in the Jungle
"So... what the hell is our team dressed like?"
When Xia Long got up in the morning, he was almost taken aback by the Chaldeans standing in a row outside the door.
All black robes wrapped the body, and the only thing that could be identified was the weapon in his hand and some features.
For example, Arturia's hood showed a bunch of dull hair.
Joan of Arc still had that headdress hanging on her hood, Xia Long's eyeballs almost popped out, how the hell did she put it on?
Cu Chulainn's... Forget it, his size is enough to give everything away.
It was definitely Merlin who was kicked by Fufu just now.
Matthew is holding a shield in his hand, which is easy to identify.
The cliff that honestly wraps her body and has no features at all is Fujimaru Tachika.
"Because there will be a lot of bugs in Yulin, I put on long trousers and robes in advance to avoid exposing the skin as much as possible." Matthew explained.
"But wouldn't our look be quite weird in this way!" Xia Long couldn't help complaining.
