Ke Ke looked very nervous, obviously the steam of the boiling water had already made her little face red, but she didn't even dare to blink her eyes, staring fixedly at the staff in the cauldron.

Napa floated over to take a look, nodded and said: "It's ok. This time I remind you, next time you have to pay attention to it yourself, after all, I can't always do alchemy with you."

With Napa's consent, Ke Ke quickly pulled out the steel staff.At that moment, Airl smelled an extremely familiar smell——

The smell of shit and urine.

"Woo-!"

This extremely strong smell of feces and urine is almost the same as when I was covered in blood and blood all over my head and face that day!At that time, it was still in the mine, and the place was big, but now in this closed alchemy room, Airl felt that he was going to be overwhelmed by these smells!

Naturally, Coco was also flushed by the smell.She covered her nose with one hand, and held the steel staff with the other, as if she was caught in the difficult choice of whether to let go or not to let go.Fortunately, Napa picked up an empty bottle at this time, stuffed the scarlet bead into the bottle, and the stopper was closed.At this point, the smell has completely dissipated.

"Oh my god... this smell is really... nostalgic."

Ai Luo walked over, took the bottle from Napa, looked at the small beads emitting a moving light, and then looked at the dead blood bug corpse in his hand, nodded and said: "However, the effect is remarkable. For the sake of safety, this thing has no expiration date, right?"

Airl asked warily.

Napa hovered over Airl's forehead for a moment, sat down on his hat, and said, "I said, everything has an expiration date. The smell of this bead also has an expiration date. But the expiration date of this thing won't be The smell disappears instantly, but dissipates little by little. It should be stored like this when not in use, and it should last for a long time.”

After confirming it, Airl was relieved and placed the "bloody bead".

Next is the venom sac gland of the rotting poisonous spider.

The whole process is similar to that of the blood bug, except that instead of forcing to drink the medicine, it is enough to just wipe the expired medicine evenly.

Half an hour later, the Mermaid Song Guild finally extracted the first antidote for the poisonous poisonous spider.Airl was very happy, but after extracting Coco, he quickly picked up the pen and paper, and began to write continuously according to the bottle of antidote.Arrow glanced at it, and it was full of incomprehensible magic formulas and graphics.It looks like it should be the structural formula of this bottle of antidote, right?

"Finish."

After the refining was over, Napa yawned and looked like she didn't want to talk to her anymore. After a few casual instructions, she flew out to find its cushion to rest.

Ai Luo held the blood beads and antidote potion and looked happy, but carefully placed them in a dark closet in the alchemy room.At the same time, he secretly made up his mind that he would definitely not be able to do two consecutive loss-making transactions like today.

Chapter 77 Hometown

With the bloody orb, Airl's mind naturally turned to the brain of the mine.

At least now it is relatively safe to pass through the territory of blood bugs, right?This strong-smelling thing can also be used as bait to deal with those corpse eaters.

In a short time, the count's large army will arrive.How about... take this opportunity and lead everyone to visit the mine first?But in terms of combat power... If it is feasible, it is better to increase the combat power to be safer...

"We're back!"

While thinking, as the night gradually darkened, Cream's voice also came from the direction of the gate.

Airl nodded, and by the time it was time for dinner.

He took Coco out of the alchemy room and walked into the guild hall, only to see Buffy and Cream walking in from the door.

"Are you back? How is the task done?"

Airl asked.

Cream smiled and said, "It's very easy, the goods arrived smoothly!"

Buffy put her hips on her hips, and said in a slightly teasing tone: "(Fairy language) Not only has the goods been successfully delivered, but the youngest daughter of the owner's family is also very fond of our thieves. He keeps asking for help, I It's almost embarrassing to look at."

Ai Luo's eyes lit up: "Oh?! So good? Has the eldest lady taken a fancy to you?"

Cream waved his hand, raised the ring on his left ring finger and said, "I don't have that in mind, I just want to complete the task well."

Arrow laughed, then raised his head and looked towards the gate: "Where's Brad? (Fairy speaking) It's rare to see you and your partner acting separately?"

Buffy flew to the table, and Coco had already handed her a special small cup and poured some water.The flower fairy took a sip and said: "(Fairy language) He is chatting with people outside, he seems to have met a fellow villager. Come in right away. Seeing how happy they are chatting, I am thirsty, so I will come in first and have a drink."

"Hometown?"

Airl suddenly remembered that he didn't seem to know where this big man was from.But it's no wonder that others don't say it, isn't it because I have a lot of things to say?

Just when Ai Luo wanted to go out to see what Brad's fellow countrymen looked like, this big man took the initiative to appear in front of the door.

"Come in! Come in! Come in! Don't be nervous. Although our president looks scary, he is actually a good person!"

Following Airl's guidance, a man about 25 or six years old, who seemed to have experienced a lot of hardships, walked in with a dilapidated lute on his back.

When this man was brought in front of Airl by Bradella, it was obvious that there was some doubt in his eyes.

"It looks scary?"

The man looked at Airl, then at Brad questioningly.

Brad said seriously: "Well, our president doesn't look scary at first glance, but he is really scary! But, but! Although the president looks scary, but the president is a Good man! Just believe me on this point, absolutely right!"

Airl really believed that if this big man hadn't been so loyal and serious and responsible in the previous missions, he would definitely let this stupid big man understand what it means to be "scary without looking scary"!

Since he was Brad's friend, Arrow asked Cream and Coco to go to the kitchen to take out the dinner they had prepared earlier, and at the same time smiled at the man and said, "Hello, I am the adventurer of this mermaid song." The president of the guild, my name is Airo Garcia. Are you a fellow of Brad? Welcome! Since you are Brad’s friend, then you are also my Arrow’s friend. Let’s have a meal here today , How about a one-night stay! Also, Brad, why didn't you tell me that you have friends coming? If I had known earlier, I could have cooked something delicious, and I could have cleaned the guest room in advance! Look at your business It’s so noisy, it’s really neglecting the guests.”

Brad smiled honestly, and said to the man, "Look, our president is scary, right?"

The man smiled awkwardly, which Airl could understand.After all, ordinary people probably have this expression when facing Brad.

"Hello, respected president of the Song of Mermaid Guild, young manager, hospitable and enthusiastic host, handsome cob, light of the Old Vine Tree Academy, symbol of wisdom and courage, His Excellency Eero Garcia. Your Excellency Gu Liduo Reciter hereby sends his greetings to you."

The voice of the grains is very magnetic, with a little gentleness.Coupled with his slightly weather-beaten appearance, he really has a very deep feeling.

It was also this feeling that made Airl feel no abruptness and flattery when he said these appellation prefixes.It's just that he is not used to it, after all, he was a little surprised to hear these red tapes again in this rural place.

"Ah... hello, Mr. Gu Liduo Reciter."

"Just call me Grain." The man took off the lute behind his back, plucked the strings lightly with his fingers, and made a pleasant sound, "As a wandering bard, now you can It is already a great honor for me to have a temporary resting place for my guild."

Ke Ke put a large plate of bread on the table, walked over to Ai Luo, and whispered: "Brother President, another weirdo?"

Although Ai Luo wanted to tell this little girl very much, it is best not to include himself in the words and sentences when calling others weird.But...forget it.Seeing that dinner was ready, Airo waved and said with a smile, "Come on, let's have a meal together if you don't mind."

Gu Li took a second look at the dinner on the table, but after just a glance, he couldn't take his eyes off.After swallowing slightly, he smiled, and plucked the strings lightly with his fingers again: "In that case, I'm not going to be polite."

As the sun finally sank under the Sleeping Mountains, the streets of Pelican Town also became quiet.

Seeing that there would be no more missions to entrust, Airl closed the door, and everyone sat around the dining table, enjoying the sumptuous dinner to the fullest.

Of course, the theme of tonight's dinner is undoubtedly the new Guerido reciter.He always tried to maintain a smile on his weather-beaten face, picked up a piece of bread, stuck some cheese juice, put it in his mouth and bit it.Then the joyful expression on his face really excited him.He began to look at Airl who was sitting opposite, and the respectful expression on his face was really overflowing.

"Really! Dear Sir Eiro Garcia, this is really the most delicious sauce I have ever tasted in my life! It's just the most common cheese sauce, right? But why is it so sweet? It tastes so good!"

Complimenting, he took another bite.

Anyway, it's nice to be praised.Among other things, the cheese sauce was his specialty, and Arrow felt he couldn't get too much praise for it.He couldn't help raising his head and chest, and said with a cheerful smile: "Don't call me Your Excellency, you are much older than me in terms of age, so you can call me Ai Luo."

Waiting for Gu Liduo to take another two sips, and after drinking two cups, Arrow asked, "Mr. Gu Liduo, how did you come to this town? And I didn't expect that you would I'm from the same town as Brad! That's a surprise."

Brad had a smirk on his face, hey hey hey, he looked very proud.

Gu Liduo looked very gentle after filling his stomach a little, and said with a smile: "Although I am from the same hometown, I left my hometown when Brad was very young. He can recognize me. I am really a Surprised, because I didn't recognize him at all."

Brad still smiled, touched the back of his head and said, "I, I've grown up. I was only ten years old when Brother Gu Lidao left, and I haven't seen you for seven or eight years in a blink of an eye."

Gu Liduo nodded: "You have really grown up a lot. At that time, you looked very strong and strong. But I didn't expect that you are so tall now, and you have joined the guild to become a Warrior! I'm so proud of you!"

After making the big man laugh from ear to ear, Gu Liduo turned his head to Ai Luo, and answered his question: "When we were young, our hometown was relatively poor. Maybe Chairman Ai Luo didn't understand it very well, it's that kind of ...a poor and white country place. The food depends entirely on the sky, if the harvest is slightly bad in one year, then we will be hungry for the whole year..."

Having said that, Gu Liduo paused for a moment, observing whether Airl could understand the hardships of this kind of life.After receiving Airl's nod of approval, he continued to speak——

"So, when I was an adult at the age of 16, I thought about leaving my hometown and going to a big city to seek a life. Because I liked some musical instruments since I was a child, and there was a bard in our hometown for a short time when I was young, I thought Learned a thing or two from that bard. So... this is what I eat."

Gu Liduo pulled the lute, tuned it slightly, flicked his finger, and the music sounded——

"Life in the city is not satisfactory~~difficult poetry cannot be critical~~everyone has this kind of hostility in their hearts~~running here and there~~traveling from south to north~~the expectation carried in the music~~slowly Turned into powerless~~~”

The melodious and slightly sad music fell, and Gu Liduo put down the lute, the smile on his face continued to be melancholy, and he said: "I ran around, just like my teacher, and became a singer. Singing poets. Carrying stories and legends from far away to sing around, in order to earn a small income."

"But recently, our war with the Hunter has intensified, and my business has become difficult. So I thought about leaving our Blue Bay Empire and going to other peaceful countries to seek survival. But I just arrived at the border. He was stopped by imperial soldiers, saying that in order to prevent spies, no one is allowed to enter and leave the border at will."

"Two days ago, I heard that a troop was heading to Pelican Town. I was thinking that Pelican Town is not the border line of war. Farther away from Pelican Town is the land that is said to have no life. The land of the abyss. So, does this team want to turn south from Pelican Town? If there is a large army crossing the border together, I might be able to get out."

"Just like that, I rushed here in a hurry, but I didn't expect to be recognized by my fellow villagers as soon as I arrived in this lovely town."

Chapter 78 new members

Arrow nodded, looking up and down the grain-rich outfit.

His turban, clothes and trousers were indeed torn in many places, but this kind of damage did not seem to be caused by years of living a down-and-out life, but more like wear and tear from rushing on the road.

And although it was dirty, the material of his clothes was not ordinary.Silk texture and fine workmanship, especially the embroidery on his cuffs is obviously not a beautiful style that a country tailor like Mr. Pudian can embroider.

Most importantly, his lute...

"Qin, it's beautiful!" Buffy, as a flower fairy, became interested when she saw the flower patterns engraved on the lute, and flew to the grain-rich lute, reaching out to touch it.

Although Gu Liduo didn't directly express his refusal, his brows were obviously frowned: "Ah! Be careful, when you touch...be careful..."

After thinking about this simple sentence for about ten seconds, Buffy heard it.Her outstretched hand didn't touch the strings, but she said suspiciously, "What's wrong? You're stingy? You don't allow it?"

Gu Li smiled awkwardly, moved the lute back a little, and said, "It's not that I'm stingy and doesn't allow others to touch it. Um... let's do this, please step aside and be careful."

The bard stood up holding the lute and came to the center of the guild hall.As he picked up the piano, he plucked the strings a few times with his fingers, only to hear a light click, but the head of the piano popped out suddenly. He held the handle of the pop-up, and then pulled it.

He held a slender dagger about as long as an adult's forearm.

Under the candlelight of the guild, the blade of the sword is like ice, flickering and touching.The slender and long blade is obviously not suitable for any slashing effect, only suitable for some piercing attacks.

What is particularly surprising is that after the sword was pulled out, the lute in his hand started to play automatically, sending out an extremely fast and motivating battle song? !Hearing it makes people's blood spurt, and it seems that they have infinite courage anytime and anywhere!

Gu Liduo held the slender dagger in his hand, and swiped it in mid-air very smoothly.The solitary light that was pulled out made Airl confirm at a glance that this weapon is definitely better than the sum of several of his own.

After about 5 minutes, the lute performance ended automatically.The bard also reinserted the slender dagger into the head of the piano, and at the same time began to stir the strings to start tuning.After a few pokes, he returned to the dining table contentedly.

chirp chirp——

It was Airl who started clapping first.

Looking at Airl, he started to applaud, and the guild members on the side also clapped their hands.

"I really didn't expect that you are also a swordsman?"

Faced with Ai Luo's surprise, Gu Liduo shook his head and said, "In such a chaotic war era, I really have no choice. But I prefer playing music to killing with a sword."

Cream tilted his head, sipping tea and smiling, "Hey, musician. After you draw your sword, the piano will play automatically? Do you have a music box inside?"

Gu Liduo smiled: "Indeed, it's not very complicated. This gentleman can see through it at a glance. I prefer to fight with the help of music, so I modified this lute myself. Once I pull out the sword, it will Activate the music box inside. With this song, I think I can still fight."
