A Pirate's Bizarre Adventure

Jon shrugged: "That kind of movable armor seems to have no meat, but it actually contains secrets."

He looked at Malusil: "In short, it is certain that that thing is not a magical creation."

Malusiel was unconvinced: "You said no, so it's not? I still said yes."

She stared at Jon: "Do you understand monsters or do I understand monsters... ahem, or do the teachers and book compilers at the Magic Academy understand monsters?"

"Oh, you still don't accept it." Jon raised his eyebrows: "Are you going to refute me again, Maru-chan?"

"I just think that is the knowledge taught by the Magic Academy, how could it be wrong?" Malusil coughed lightly: "It is knowledge that has been passed down for more than ten years. If there is a mistake, someone would have discovered it long ago. "

At this time, Chilchak touched his chin: "Is it possible that, except for us, there will be no other adventurers who are so stupid as to eat monsters?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere was silent for a moment.

Sensi and Leos looked at each other.

"Eating monsters and the like is just a common occurrence for me."

"I also think that many monsters are so delicious. I brought so many adventure supplies in vain before. I wish I had known better and used local materials."

Malusil covered her forehead with a 'pop' sound: "Okay, you two, stop talking, my trigeminal nerve hurts so much."

"Then do you want to eat some salt-baked pork? There is also a fried pork version left at noon. Of course, the taste may be a bit unsatisfactory." Sensi is enthusiastic and feels that all physical ailments can be treated with food.

Maluciel waved her hand.

At this time, Leos said thoughtfully: "Having said that, we should really start preparing dinner."

He looked at Jon: "Let's continue the topic of 'hidden secrets'. I was interrupted by Malusiel just now. I still don't know where the flesh of the movable armor is."

Leos seemed very interested in this, and even his eyes began to glow.

Jon: "Don't worry about it now. I'm telling you, Malusiel, do you want to make a bet?"

"What are you betting on?" Malushir suddenly became alert, as if he saw the weasel's hound: "You guys, what are you going to take advantage of me?"

"You're starting to trust me again, aren't you? Although you are a bit pretty, you are still far behind compared to my ex-girlfriends." Jon spread his hands: "What I want to bet with you is that you body……"

"Ah! Sure enough, you are still interested in my body." Maluciel hid behind Laos: "Although, thank you, please forgive me for declining."

Jon:? ? ?

What kind of brain circuit?

Well, woman, you managed to get my attention.

"What I want to bet with you is the staff next to you." Jon pointed to Malusil's original pure wood staff: "If the movable armor is not a magical creation, you can borrow this thing. Let me play."

"Duck!" Malusiel refused without thinking.

This staff looks simple, but it is actually her natal magic weapon.

‘Ambrosia’ is a special weapon woven from the roots of the World Tree (grandson plant) by Maluciel when she was at the Magic Academy. Deeply bound to Malusil, from a certain point of view, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is the second Malusil.

"Don't be so anxious to refuse. If the movable armor is a magical creation as you said, I will not only give you this famous sword, Thunderstorm, but also give you three additional wishes. As long as it is something I can do, I can do it. I'll help you realize it." Jon said to Malusil in a devilishly seductive tone: "Think about it carefully, you will definitely not lose."

Maluciel:...

She wasn't very interested in that sword.

But, three wishes?

The family members were heartbroken.

"If I lose, I just lend you 'Ambrosia', and you will return it to me then, right?" Malusiel asked cautiously.

Jon: "Of course that is. Why, are you still worried that I will hairy your staff?"

"Bet with him! Malusiel."

"Believe in the knowledge of the Magic Academy, Malusil!"

Leos and Chirchak watched the excitement without taking it too seriously and kept encouraging them.

Maluciel herself was a little stunned.

Being so excited again.

When he got the upper hand, he just ignored it: "Okay! I'll bet with you!"

"GOOD~" Jon drew his sword out of its sheath: "Hearing is false and seeing is believing. You probably won't understand just by talking about it. Come on, I'll show you to you."

Malusiel hadn't spoken yet, but Laos bowed excitedly first: "Sorry to trouble you, Teacher Jon!"

Maluciel looked helpless.

Chirchak rested his head on his pillow.

Sensi is so cute.

Laos also reacted at this time, and said with force: "It's not that I am very interested, but... yes, there is no way to do it. If we want to continue going down, we can only follow this path. Go, there will inevitably be a fight."

He thumped his hands: "Know yourself and your enemy and you will be victorious in any battle!"

"Knowing yourself and your enemy is the only way to facilitate the entrance." Malusil complained.

"It all means the same thing. The winner eats and the loser gets eaten. These are the rules of the maze." Leos deliberately ignored the topic, "Let's go and see the movable armor."

Because they were going to fight, the group was well prepared.

Chilchak, who had the weakest fighting ability, hid far away for fear of hindering the team.

As for Maruthil, she was protected by Laos, Sensi and Jon, chanting lighting magic as she walked.

"This is..." After passing through the entrance hall, Laos and the others came to a more spacious hall.

Looking around, there were standing armors everywhere.

"What do you think, Maruthil, it's not too late to regret now." Perhaps the condemnation of conscience made Jon a little uneasy. Before taking action, he deliberately said to Maruthil.

Unexpectedly, his kindness was regarded as a deliberate provocation. Maruthil didn't care at all, but said confidently: "The content in the book will not be wrong! Are you underestimating me a little bit by using such words to shake my heart?"

You can survive if you are wronged by God, but you can't survive if you are wronged by yourself.

Then 'Ambrosia' is mine for the time being.

Jon didn't say much, and used an ancestral monster-attracting skill: "Hey, grandson!"

Creaky---

After the words fell, many movable armors began to rush towards the crowd stiffly.

Laos' eyes were stern, and he slashed and hacked with a long sword.

Sensi was so powerful that he knocked many movable armors to the ground with his axe.

When it came to Jon...

Emmmm

Proper paddling is good for physical and mental health.

It was well planned before.

Defeat these movable armors, then explore their internal structure, and solve today's dinner by the way.

Arranged~

But when it came to the time to do it, they suddenly found that there were too many of these armors. And because there was no entity, they were not afraid of pain. Even if they cut off their hands, feet and heads, they could still move after a while of recovery.

"Hey, hey, hey! Are we in trouble?" Laos turned around and said to Sensi.

Sensi did not respond, and still swung the axe silently.

"I will give you magic support, don't worry." Maluxier was so anxious that sweat broke out on her forehead.

She kept chanting spells, casting rays of light on Laos, Sensi and Jon.

It is worth mentioning that although Maruthil is not good at daily magic and reinforcement magic, it does not mean that she can't use it, but her proficiency is slightly lower.

In addition, her major in magic school is actually related to healing.

However, according to the victim Laos's personal description, when Maruthil casts healing magic, it will cause the treated person more pain than being injured. She herself calls it "recovery pain" and refuses to block the pain nerves like Falin on the grounds that she cannot paralyze the senses (in fact, she can't).

Let's get back to the point---Seeing that more and more active armors are surrounding them.

Jon finally got out of the state of paddling and reminded in time: "Maruthil, don't waste magic power anymore, use fire magic."

"What?" Maruthil couldn't react for a while.

However, Jon didn't give her more time to prepare. With a thought, he swung the sword and set off waves of fire.

The flames were blazing.

The active armor that was so aggressive before was obviously stagnant.

Maruthil's competitive spirit also rose.

How can you, a melee profession, play magic better than me?

"Damn it, I can't be outdone at this time!"

She said silently in her heart.

Malucil ordered Laos: "Cover me!"

After that, she began to chant.

"Flame? So that's it, you want to melt the metal and reveal the body of the movable armor?" Sensi muttered to himself, and consciously joined the action of protecting Malucil.

Each version has its own god, and each version plays Garen...

No, play a mage!

When a mage gets serious, the destructive power that bursts out in a short period of time is indeed unmatched by other professions.

Especially a talented girl like Malucil from a magic school, who has a lot of buff bonuses...

"See the power of a magician!" Malucil finally finished chanting.

Fire escape: Great fire arrow (not)

But a huge fireball suddenly exploded in the most densely populated area of ​​the movable armor, and burned those movable armors to ashes.

"Hey! Everyone!" Just then, the sharp-eyed Chirchak discovered the clue: "Look, something is coming out of the gap in the armor."

Everyone looked over.

They saw white and tender mollusks scrambling to get out of the armor. Unfortunately, the temperature outside was not much lower than that inside the armor. Almost as soon as they escaped from the 'oven', the moisture in their bodies dried up, and they were naked, hanging on the armor.

"Is that a slug?"

"No, no, it should be a snail."

Laios and Sensi exchanged opinions.

And Maruxiel was completely dumbfounded.

No.

What the hell is that white thing? Is the movable armor really not a magical creation?

Jon patted Maruxiel on the shoulder: "Your staff is good, but it will be mine in the next second."

Maruxiel: ...

Yada.

'Ambrosia' was defiled, yada! ! !

But regardless of what Malushiel was thinking,

Jon relied on his agility to snatch a head from the twisted armor and threw it to Sensi.

Sensi was not afraid of the heat at all and just looked at it carefully.

After looking at it for a long time, he nodded: "So that's it - the active armor is not cursed, nor is it driven by magic, but many soft-bodied creatures that are not exposed to the outside are combined together to form a muscle-like structure to control the armor."

The more Maruxiel listened, the darker her face became.

She approached in disbelief and clearly saw the mysterious mollusk hanging in the gap of the helmet.

"How is it possible... How is this possible..."

The talented girl from the magic school muttered to herself, and her whole worldview was shaken.

That was what was recorded in the book.

How could the book be wrong?

"According to the agreement, you lose." Jon came over and patted Maruxiel on the shoulder: "Through this incident, I hope you can understand that books are not always correct."

Maruxiel: ...

Let's not talk about Maruxiel, whose worldview was strongly shocked.

But Senxi observed the roasted soft-bodied creature for a long time, sniffed, and sniffed gently.

In an instant, the fresh aroma penetrated into the nasal cavity

Senxi made an ambiguous "hmm", and in front of everyone, he ate the roasted soft-bodied creature into his mouth with a slurp.

Such a reckless move scared the others.

"Hey! What if it's poisonous?" Chirchak slapped Senxi's back, trying to make the bearded man spit out the food in his mouth.

Senxi was unmoved and said seriously: "The monsters in the underground maze have their own special ecological characteristics. If they are particularly ferocious, with sharp teeth and claws, they are usually not poisonous. And those who use venom to protect themselves and kill enemies will not have sharp teeth and claws.

If this soft-bodied creature is really poisonous, it will not be huddled in the armor like this..."

As he said, he nodded: "It tastes very good, like clams, it will be a good material for making soup."

Clams?

If you put it that way.

From the appearance, it does look a bit like it.

However, from the perspective of living habits, this soft-bodied creature should be closer to hermit crabs.

Forget it, who cares~

"So it can be eaten directly!" Laos was excited, and there was a hint of revenge in his eyes.

You made me lose my life for no reason.

Now I want to take revenge and eat you!

Laos couldn't wait to pull out a soft-bodied creature from the gap of the helmet.

Put it in his mouth and swallow it in a few bites.

"Well, how should I put it? In addition to being fresh and tender, it seems to have a bit of rust." Laos scratched his head: "Is it not cooked enough? I always feel that it is more unpalatable than normal clams."

"This is just after being roasted, there is no taste of any processing." Sensi said seriously: "If it is simply processed, the rust smell should disappear."

Laos pounded his hand: "Really? Then I'll pick up more."

After that, he ran away without looking back.

"Hey! Be careful that there are still alive... Forget it, I'll go with you." Maluxier recovered from the trance and followed involuntarily.

After discovering the secret of the movable armor, this monster is no longer a threat.

Laos was in front, and Maruxier continued to output flames in the back.

Soon, dozens of movable armors were roasted.

Senxi slowly set up the big pot: "Hehe, how should I cook it?" (End of this chapter)
