City of Dimlight

Chapter 109 Desert Island

After the price was negotiated, Alan was very happy. He sat in Toma's chair and put his feet on the coffee table in front of him. To be honest, if you think the price is high, you can go back and hire a few mercenaries again!" He stared at him sideways: "I know the price of mercenaries - you picked up a big bargain!"

"Yes, yes!" Tomma, whose nature was undoubtedly revealed, answered weakly. Suddenly, he thought of something and became energetic again: "Say it first - if you don't meet any enemies, the price will be only 30%!"

"Oc, there is no problem!" Allen didn't care at all: "But you have to tell me why the gate of Giant Tooth Port has not been closed recently?"

"This is actually simple," Tomma said that she had a little more advantage when she saw the price and was in a good mood. In addition, although there was no formal answer to the question asked by Allen, many people in the city already knew it. "This is like this," he sorted out his thoughts. "We got the news not long ago. A group of Medusa appeared at sea, and we were afraid that they would attack the port, so we put the city under martial law for the time being!"

"Then why did you put us in again?" Aaron continued to ask.

"You?" He smiled: "It's very simple! Although Medusa can change into the appearance of our orcs by magic, she can never make her figure smaller - your human figure is similar to that of our fox clan, and it can't be Medusa's become in any case!"

"So that's it!" Allen said to himself. He stood up and said, "Oi, I'm going back to rest now - when you need me, we will naturally take action!"

"That's good!"

Obix in the room is practicing the use of the machete. Under the guidance of the little angel, he can now successfully release the machete and then recycle it, but the arc of the machete has not been mastered and can't hit the target.

"It seems that you know this weapon very well!" Allen looked at it for a while and said to Aurora.

"Me?" It makes a sound, which means that it is laughing: "I have seen the use of this weapon, but theoretically it is okay!" It immediately turned to a topic: "Have you talked to him?"

"Well," Allen poured a bowl of water: "It's almost the same as you guess. Sure enough, there are other things you want us to do." He smiled and said, "Actually, it's not difficult - just let Obix practice."

"It's hard to say," the little angel flew to the table and stood, "now the distribution of the whole world is strange - there are too many places I don't know. I can't guess how many secrets there are in your world.

"I don't care," he said simply, "Anyway, I don't know who I am now - one day will be fine!"

"You can think about it - just do as you said, one day by day!" It looked at Alan and said, "When it's time to come, it will always come!"

"What?" Allen didn't hear the last sentence clearly.

"Nothing, just talking to yourself!"

"Good luck!" Bosk stood on the shore and looked at the whole island shrouded in light blue light. "At least we don't have to worry about the dark!"

"At this time, it's true that the repair process will take at least a few days," the captain came over and said, "Your Excellency, please do me a favor."

Redges reached out to take out the wand. At the urging of the spell, the gas element quickly gathered on the head of the wand, and then obediently and evenly crossed the whole hull. All right, everyone!" The captain summoned.

The huge sea ship was quickly lifted more than one meter high by more than a dozen people under the action of floating, and then the captain picked up the prepared wooden stakes and placed more than 20 support points under the ship - the ship was steadily set up.

"Oc's it, we're ready to start repairing the bottom of the boat!" The captain said happily, "Now the elders can lift the magic."

Rigis nodded and quickly lifted the magic. With a click, the hard ice in the hole at the bottom of the ship began to break, and some of the ballasts that had lost their support fell down.

"Wow, there are a few big holes!" Bosk leaned over and looked at the hole in the bottom of the boat. "How long will it take to fix it!" He looked at the captain.

The captain looked carefully at the location of the hole, and then pulled several sailors to discuss it for a while. "It looks more troublesome," he came over with a sad face: "The first few holes are easy to say, but the back one is on the keel. You must change a section of the keel before you can make up!"

"The captain meant--" Rigis was thoughtful, "Can't it be repaired?"

"Impossible!" The captain said proudly, "I have been a captain for more than ten years!" This boat is more familiar than my own horns, and any problem can be repaired!" He turned around and touched the hull: "It's just that it may take a little longer!"

"Oh - that's no problem!" The elder smiled and said, "Then please hurry up. After all, we have to go back as soon as possible."

The captain arranged for sailors to start looking for suitable trees nearby, and began to collect branches and moss to prepare fire to roast wood. The wood needs to be roasted before it can be used," he explained loudly to the elves: "This is a must!"

Larry sat on the rock and said to Elder Regis who came over, "It seems that the captain is very good - I hope it won't delay our trip!"

"I hope not," the elder said, "It should be very simple to repair here," he said to Larry, "It's just that food and drinking water are a little troublesome - the place is not familiar. I don't know if there is any danger here. I don't know if Elder Larry can lead the team to find food and drinking water."

Larry stood up: "Naturally, the elders will stay here. I will take the people of our mercenary regiment to find food and fresh water."

"Then there will be Elder Labor!"

Bosk and Larry led all the members of the Blue Mermaid Mercenary Corps.

They bypassed the southern corner and walked along the left bank of the river. When the river turned southwest, they left the river. They found a passable road under the evergreen trees, and two hours later, Bosk and his friends reached the western edge of the forest. In the area I just walked, the ground was initially full of swamps; later it was a dry sand, but there were few ups and downs until here that a slope gradually formed, rising from the shore to the inland.

They plan to climb a hillside. According to the terrain, it is best to go along the ridge of the branch.

"There seems to be a volcano here." After Larry finished speaking, he took his partners to climb up from a branch step by step, which curved to the top of the mountain, so it was easier to walk.

There have obviously been earthquakes here, and there are rocks, a large number of fragments of basalt and pumice. The fir trees are growing in twos and threes, and their branches and leaves are extremely dense, covering the depths of the canyons below a few hundred feet so that even a ray of sunlight can hardly penetrate.

In the first stage of climbing, Garlock recognized some of the new footprints left by the huge Warcraft.

"These guys may not let us go easily." Garlock said that he waved the sword in his hand and was ready to fight at any time.

"Look," Larry said, "we'll figure it out. But we should be very careful now!"

They slowly climbed up the mountain.

Due to the twists and turns of the road and many obstacles, they can't climb up directly, and the distance becomes far away. Sometimes the ground suddenly plummeted, and they found themselves facing an abyss, which was quite far away, so they had to take a detour. They waste a lot of time and energy on finding a path that is passable. Ten hours later, the expedition team stopped to eat under a large cluster of fir trees. There was a mountain stream nearby, and the water rushed into a waterfall. The ocean that can be seen here is much wider, but a raised Cape on the right blocks their view, and they can't see whether there is land over there. On the left, you can see a few miles north. However, looking at the area where they lived in the northwest, their eyes were suddenly covered by a strange-shaped ridge, which formed a powerful pillar of the central volcanic cone.

"Fresh water can be taken from here," Larry concluded, "As long as you walk along the coast for dozens of minutes below, you can find downstream water!"

"What about food?" Bosk asked, "They don't eat meat!"

What he said was willing to say was that several birds broke into the sight in the distance - these birds were horned pheasant, with sarcomas hanging under their throats and a pair of small round crown hairs behind their eyes. This bird is about the same size as a chicken. The female is brown, and the male's feathers are red, dotted with white spots, which is very beautiful. The archers among the mercenaries have quickly picked up the bow and arrows and shot them out like beads.

A few minutes later, a fire crackled in the shelter of the rock. Their purpose of making a fire was to keep out the cold at night, not to roast bird meat. Garlock left the birds to eat the next day. Their dinner was brought out from the boat with wooden cakes and the fruits of some plants.

"We need to find a lot of dried fruits to meet the needs of dozens of people," Larry said. "In this case, we need to find a large area of fruit trees."

Garlock took out a shell creature from his pocket. "This is what I found on the beach. I can collect a lot after the tide recedes."

"What! Are they all scallops?" Bosco shouted, "This can replace part of the food!"

"It's not a scallop," Garlock answered, taking out a handful from his pocket and giving it to everyone, "It's Zbei."

"Brother Garlock, is it delicious?" A mercenary asked.

"Delicious." Garlock is sure.

A handful of tsbe was quickly eaten by hungry people, and they ate it like clams. The taste of Zbei is very spicy, and it is also very delicious without any seasoning.

Ten minutes later, the expedition set off again. Now it has solved one of the problems and only needs to find food.

Before the team went back on the road, the formation made a big adjustment - Garlock appeared at the front of the team, and then Larry stood at the end.
