Gold is Justice

After putting away the power of attorney, Airl continued to keep a smile on his face.Cora put down her pen and thought for a while and said, "Since you are willing to buy, there are some herbs in my clinic now, do you want to buy them?"

"Of course I bought it! And we need fresh ones, you can ship them to us directly without drying them."

After Korra got up, Airo sent it to the door, and added: "In addition, since our task this time is only five silver coins, we need to make more preparations, and the entrustment time may be longer. I hope you don't mind waiting a little longer."

Hearing this sentence, Ko La's expression suddenly dropped again, but at least he didn't continue to say anything, he just muttered: "I hope it won't be too long. If autumn passes, many herbs will be gone."

"Haha! It won't be long, don't worry."

To Airl's relief, the barefoot doctor finally leaves.About two hours later he wobbled over in his old wagon and unloaded a basket of herbs.

To be honest, these herbs are very suitable for picking. Compared with Coco, a little girl who is clumsy and clumsy, Ko La uses professional tools to pick them, and they are all well placed in categories, giving people a very comfortable feeling at first glance. .

Immediately, Airl bought some morning star grass, polyflowers and tear-eyed vines needed for the treatment aerosol.In addition, I bought some forest thorn seeds, which cost almost one silver coin in total.

It is also because considering that Coco's magic power is not strong, there is no way to quickly alchemy.Otherwise, Airl would really like to pack all the herbs in this cart and refine them slowly.

After sending the students away, after dinner, Airl watched Ke Ke refine three bottles of healing aerosol in the alchemy room.This little girl is quite competitive, and under Napa's guidance, she made a bottle of magic aerosol by using the forest thorn seeds and those three kinds of herbs, so that the problem of Coco's battery life can be regarded as a little bit solved.

King Slime, this is not the problem Arrow wants to solve at all.

Although these words can only be thought in his heart, this does not prevent the guild leader from thinking positively about the damage this monster can cause to the guild.

Even if Brad and Coco's equipment has been upgraded, and their combat experience should be a little richer, it's still not the time to face King Slime.

Slimes are afraid of flames, strong acids, freezing and many other magics, and they are also afraid of alchemy products such as salt water potions.To be honest, this kind of monster is not a big problem for a mature guild.But the magic power of my own guild is lacking in this aspect. If you want to refine magic items with this kind of magic power, you will need a lot of cost, and it is obviously inappropriate to spend it on slimes.Especially King Slime, the strength of this kind of monster is not only ten times stronger than that of ordinary slime.Maybe it can do some simple magic, and the degree of viciousness is unknown.

However, this is not to say that the problem of King Slime should not be solved.

Early the next morning, Arrow went to the tool store and bought a lot of animal traps from Boss Longstick.Although these traps are not as lethal as the spike traps made by Cream, they are still good enough.

"I really don't understand you more and more."

In the guild hall, Napa's head was fished out from the bowl full of milk.It raised its paw to lick it, rubbed its face, wiped off the milk sticking to its beard, and looked worriedly at Airl who was setting those traps on the floor.

"Don't you tell me you're going to use these traps on those slimes. And I've said it many times, if you let me go with you, those slimes are nothing to me What trouble."

Airl checked these animal traps one by one, picked one up and opened it, and after confirming that the trap was normal, he continued to respond with a smile on his face: "I've said it many times, relying solely on your words, my guild's Sooner or later, the dominance will be completely transferred to your hands. And as creatures like us, if we keep using our brains, our brains will become dull, and we must keep them running to prevent them from rusting."

Getting a little tired, Airl put down the trap in his hand and stood up, exhaling a long breath.He stepped forward to close the door of the guild, and then he was able to take off his hat, and shook his head so that his blond hair could fall down smoothly.

"It's so hot, my hair should really be cut... But how about cutting it a little bit shorter? I'm a little bit reluctant to cut it completely short."

The girl lifted her hair to let the heat escape from the back of her neck.Wait until a little more comfortable before continuing to squat on the ground to inspect these traps.

"Where are our guild members?"

Napa continued to watch Airl's actions boredly, and asked a casual question.

"Thanks to yesterday's advertisement, Coco continued to help people look after the stalls. Brad helped deliver goods to the next town. The two of them probably won't come back until after dinner. Napa, you Can you come over and help me...can you give me a hand? The mechanism of this trap...is so strong! I...can't break it apart!"

The cat was lying on the cushion, watching the president's beautiful face turn red, pressing the mechanism of a trap with both hands, but it still couldn't open it.

It sighed, slowly floated over and circled the animal trap, raised its tail, and slammed at the machine gun, the trap was finally able to open smoothly.

"Ariel, there is something I want to confirm with you."

Napa flew back in front of the girl and stopped, the light golden fur exuded a little warm luster, but her royal blue eyes didn't look so gentle——

"After observing this period of time, I have to admit that you are quite an interesting guild leader. Note, I didn't say you are 'competent', but that you are interesting."

"Many of your working methods are very different from the operation methods of the Adventurer's Guild that I know, and sometimes they are completely opposite. I also admit that I want a person like you who has neither martial skills nor magic affinity to be the leader of the Adventurer's Guild." The president made it difficult for you. But just like the last time you faced a corpse eater, I think you should trust me a little more."

The president put away the broken trap again, continued to check the next one, and smiled while watching: "Didn't I say that at the time? Trust this thing——"

"No, listen to me. According to my observations, it doesn't seem that you deliberately don't need my help because you simply don't want to rely on me, and the guild will become my leader. You are insisting that you must do it yourself. There seems to be some persistence in this matter that I cannot understand."

"You want to earn 1000 gold coins in three years. According to the understanding of ordinary people, in order to earn this money, you will definitely try your best to use various simple and easy methods. For example, use my power to complete some tasks faster and more conveniently, This is safer and more efficient. It can even be said that you only need to ask me to enter the mine with you, and I can hunt down two or three of the corpse eaters you mentioned and dig out their gold nugget hearts. It takes a few days for you to collect 1000 gold coins."

"However, you did not do this, nor did you ask me in this regard."

"You're desperate to get the money together, but you don't use these methods that I think are very easy and simple. It's not something that 'doesn't want to be understood about how you work' can explain it of."

"So, Ariel, Ariel Garcia. What exactly does your three-year 1000 gold coins mean? What is the reason why you would rather risk your life than take shortcuts?"

As Napa spoke, the blond girl crouched on the ground with her back turned to check the trap.Her actions were very cautious, and her eyes were very focused, as if she didn't listen to what the cat monster said at all.

Although there was always a faint smile on the corner of her mouth, but this smile seemed to be fixed on this face by nature, and it could not explain any thoughts in her heart.

It wasn't until all the traps were checked that the girl got up and stretched.She looked at the eight traps on the ground with great satisfaction and nodded.

"Ariel Garcia!"

Seeing that the other party did not reply, Napa's voice could not help but ring out.

"Of course I have my own way, as long as you know, I will try my best to achieve the expectation of 100 gold coins. Now nearly three-quarters of the first year has passed, and I haven't even earned [-] gold coins. Come back, you have to believe that I must be more anxious about my own goals than you."

She turned her head and twirled her fingers around the end of the blonde hair. After confirming that the hair on her fingertips was slightly split, she shook her head helplessly, letting her hair spread out a little more so that it would not stick together due to sweat . .

"So, can you please stop asking so aggressively? I allow our guild members in Mermaid Song to have their own little secrets. It will make me uncomfortable if you keep coming to pry into the secrets in my heart."

Napa stared at the blonde girl. After a while, the cat shook its head resignedly, and flew back to the cushion on the counter to lie down again: "Girls from poor families don't mind if their hair is forked, you must have suffered." Good etiquette education, and it can’t be cultivated by a few years of school life in the old Tengshu Academy, but the etiquette education that has been absorbed by our ears since childhood. Since you still don’t want to talk about it, then I won’t ask. I just want you I know that I don't want to pry into your secrets, it's purely based on the idea of ​​a friend, I hope you don't cause anything because you are too aggressive."

After a pause, it spoke again——

"It's like that corpse eater, and that Merlin. You should know that as long as there is a slight mistake in the last mission, your funeral will have passed for several days."

The girl froze for a moment. She looked at the kitten, as if she wanted to confirm whether its words were sincere or purely perfunctory.

After a long time, she turned around, slightly suppressed the repeated emotions in her heart, and turned her head again: "Well, thank you. Also... would you like to cut my hair a little bit? Cut off the forked part, But don't cut too much."

Since forming the guild, this was the first time Napa heard the girl ask for something from herself.The cat raised its head from the cushion and looked at the girl in front of him with a slightly guilty smile on her face, without thinking much, it flew over slowly.

The power of magic was slowly flying in this hall, and the wind elf lightly brushed the golden hair tips with a soft touch, removing those hairs that were no longer manageable.After cleaning up, these gentle spirits of the wind agitated the girl's blonde hair from bottom to top, blowing it as much as possible, opening those hair strands that were condensed with sweat, like a blower, bringing a lot of fun. refreshing.

After everything was cleaned up, Airl put her hair up again and put on a hat to cover it up.He took a broom and cleaned up the stray hair from the floor, and threw it into the kitchen fire to destroy the evidence.

"So... Napa, would you like to go out with me to complete the task of eliminating King Slime?"

Napa just lay down on the cushion, suddenly, she heard the request of the guild leader.

Chapter 36 Lies Need Lies to Cover

Pushing the trolley that was pulled out from the warehouse earlier, Airl closed the door of the guild with a leisurely expression, and walked towards the east exit of the town.

When passing by the market, I happened to see Ke Ke and her undead soldiers watching the stall over there. After saying hello, Ai Luo let the little girl continue to watch the stall while he continued to walk forward.

Napa lay on Airl's head as usual, and after the two of them had completely walked out of Pelican Town, the cat looked back at the town behind it, and then at the approaching Shining Forest in front, looking a little puzzled .

"Aren't you going to buy salt? What can you do with the small bottle of cooking salt on your body? Or, have you finally decided to let me clean up these slimes?"

The small cart made a gurgling sound on the dirt floor, and the shining forest not far away was really like the literal meaning of the sun, exuding dots of light.

He is still smiling, and it seems that he will not make any other expressions besides the smile: "No, and I don't want to clean up these slimes today. Today we are going to set up traps, and you are responsible for When I set up traps, help me to be alert to the following surroundings, to see if there is any danger around, just remind me."

Just as he was speaking, Arrow had reached the edge of the Shining Forest.She tried her best to lift the sack containing eight hunting traps on the small cart, and stepped into it with one foot deep and one shallow foot.

"I don't quite understand what you mean."

As soon as she entered the forest, Napa raised her neck a little, to help Airl be alert to the surrounding environment——

"If you don't deal with King Slime, what are you doing here with these traps?"

Arrow held a tree and gasped for a while. To say the least, he was too careless. During this period of time, any heavy things were handed over to Brad. He only needed to be the one giving orders, and the consequences were serious. I underestimated the weight of these traps, causing myself to die without taking two steps.

He raised his head, and saw that the sun was shining through the leaves, and the whole forest was shining brightly.It's already noon now, so it's better to hurry up and finish these things, lest it really be fun to wait for the sun to go west, and some monsters run out of this forest.

"Do you remember that man named Cream?"

Napa didn't expect to mention the thief's name suddenly at this moment, and said immediately: "Yes, you said he followed Merlin back."

Arrow nodded, gritted his teeth and continued walking, saying, "I haven't talked to Brad, Buffy and Coco about these things, but I always feel that he should come to our guild again. And next time, this guy will come to us. It's not a good thing."

Napa didn't understand Airl's meaning for a while: "Can you make it more clear?"

"Huh... let me tell you like this."

Finally entered a slightly deeper place, Airl estimated the distance, took out a piece of animal trap from the sack, found a place with lush grass and installed it, then covered it with those weeds, and then took out the salt grains in his pocket bottle, and sprinkled a little salt around the trap to ensure that slimes would not come over and touch the mechanism by mistake.Soon, a trap that fully blends into the surrounding environment is completed.

After looking around to make sure that no one would be spotted due to the reflection of the sun, Airl drew out his sharp-toothed dagger, carefully made a mark on the nearby tree trunk, and then continued to walk deep.

"That guy, Cream, was obviously forced to come to our guild. It was different from the first time. He seemed very arrogant the first time, so the first mission should really be an ordinary commission."

"However, he was very nervous the second time, and according to what he said, the two townspeople who were entrusted for the first time were also killed by Merlin. Judging from what Merlin said before he left, it should be Cream and There was some entanglement between Merlin, and Cream reluctantly made a very important deal with Merlin. After Merlin confirmed that the mine would indeed produce gold mines, the deal between Cream and him was considered complete."

"After that, this guy followed Merlin away, probably because he wanted to accept Merlin's promise."

Napa shook her ears, looked at a tree three meters away and said, "There is a small slime over there, please pay attention."

After Airl avoided it carefully, Napa continued to ask, "So, what does this have to do with the trap we're setting here now?"

Arrow smiled, found a relatively narrow place, and installed another animal trap: "To be honest, I don't trust Merlin very much. Even if he is a mage, I don't trust what he said. .”

Napa snorted: "You human beings are really weird, you don't even believe the promise of the magician? Is it you who are weird or am I thinking too much?"

Ai Luo didn't mind either: "Ke Ke is also a magician, this little girl has a lot of tricks, do you believe everything she says?"

Napa: "Humph. You continue."

Airl looked around, confirmed that the location a little further ahead was undoubtedly King Slime's lair, and installed a third trap again. "Cream knows too much. In fact, I think our guild knows too much. According to the information I have, the news that the abandoned mine can re-produce gold mines is not widespread. So, the more people know that it is a gold mine, the less likely it is that those noble officials in Hanhai City can monopolize the gold mine. If everyone in the Blue Bay Empire knows that there is a gold mine here, then The right to develop the gold mine will fall into the hands of the royal family, as long as our emperor orders it to be monopolized, then those nobles and collaterals will not be able to taste the sweetness of this gold mine again."

The cat's ears perked up again, and the color of its eyes changed from being lazy to vigilant: "You mean... Merlin is very likely to kill that little thief? Or maybe kill you?  … No, if he wanted to kill you, he was able to do it when you completed the mission before."

Ai Luo put down the fourth trap, and smiled wryly: "Hehe, he really wanted to do this at that time. If I hadn't reported the name of my alma mater. Well, I have to say, the name of Old Tengshu College is more or less It has some effect, it seems that even if he is indeed backed by a high-ranking official, that high-ranking official should not be able to kill the students of the old Tengshu Academy casually. After all, this offends too many people."

Napa nodded, but after a moment's pause, it suddenly said: "Wait a minute, since you are starting to set traps now, it means that you have already expected that Merlin may bring people here again in the future. And at that time It means that this mage will directly conflict with our guild! That's why you came here to set up traps in advance, because this is the place you expected for the decisive battle!"

"However, why did Merlin not fear the name of Old Tengshu Academy and target us at that time? Because you know that by that time, Merlin must have thoroughly checked the list of students of Old Tengshu Academy. And you, Ariel Garcia is not on the academy's graduation list at all!"

Airl, who was about to place the fifth trap, suddenly trembled.

This sudden pause made him seem to be integrated with the entire forest at this moment, turning into an "object" that could not think, move, or react.

Because of his stalemate, a slime slowly moved towards him, but Napa didn't respond.It just looked at the girl under its feet, wanting to know how this human being wanted to answer its own question.

"...Oh my, did you make a mistake? Our vice president."

Just when the slime was about to touch Airl's finger, he quickly took out the salt shaker and sprinkled it. The slime retreated and crawled in another direction.
