Gold is Justice

"Mr. Dark, is that...Mr. Mayor really...doesn't have any fighting power?"

Dak glanced at him and asked, "How did you think of asking this?"

Jelly seemed a little nervous, he nodded repeatedly, and said, "Because...because! There must be a lot of monsters in such a jungle...a place like this! We are acting like this... sooner or later we will encounter some kind of monsters Right? But Mr. Mayor...Mr. Mayor is not nervous at all! Is she...does she really possess some kind of strange magic as in the legend?"

Dak was taken aback for a moment, frowned, and said, "What? You seem to be looking forward to encountering a monster."

Having been told again, Jelly blushed, lowered her head, and seemed a little embarrassed.

After a long time, he continued: "Well... I... you are adventurers. If you are an adventurer... if you walk in such a place, you will definitely encounter a monster soon... right? Very There will be a battle soon, right? I heard other people tell stories, and I heard... say me... You Mermaid Song defeated the dragon! You have challenged the underground labyrinth and traveled through many incredible places. It must be... If If you encounter a monster, you will be able to deal with it quickly, right?"

Dak seemed a little surprised by Jelly's current cognition, but at the same time he was also a little confused.

As far as he was concerned, he hadn't really thought about the problems of adventurers' combat ability in daily life before.But now after being asked by Jelly, he suddenly remembered something.

That is, since he joined Song of the Mermaid, the probability of him fighting people or monsters has plummeted.If he was in his own guild before and was not under house arrest, he would have to go out on missions to fight outside almost every month.Compared with this, the battle frequency of Song of the Mermaid is so low that people almost forget the days of licking blood?

Duck raised his head, also looking at Ariel in front of him.At this time, the chairman had finished eating the dry food and water in his hands, patted his pants, pressed the hat on his head, wrapped the cloak around himself, and stood up again.

Seeing this, Dak also quickly finished the food in his hand, pulled the jelly and stood up together.

However, they did not act quickly.But after Cream went to the front for a little scouting and returned, and nodded to everyone, Ariel started to follow.

Walking all the way like this, I walked for almost two hours without knowing it.

At this time, it was already two o'clock in the afternoon.However, the autumn sun was blocked by the dense shade of trees, and it seemed a little chilly.

After stopping and walking again for a while, Jelly continued to look around, as if he was guarding against the magical beast that would appear from nowhere.

"President."

It was at this moment that Dak opened his mouth and said——

"Our journey is always so safe."

Ariel smiled slightly, knowing what he wanted to say, and said immediately: "Why, isn't the journey safe?"

"...not really."

Dak caressed the two long swords around his waist with both hands, and after exhaling a little, he said——

"It's just... I suddenly found that compared with my previous guild, after joining the mermaid song, I spent more time practicing. Now that I think about it, I was doing it in order not to be trapped all day long. Locked in the room and simply practicing fighting skills, and ran out."

Ariel laughed again.She nodded immediately, and said as she walked——

"I know what you're thinking. Jelly, I also know what you're thinking. Do you think this kind of itinerary is a bit boring? I think this kind of journey is too boring, maybe it's not as full of 'adventurous spirit' as you imagined ',right?"

Jelly was taken aback for a second, then lowered her head, not daring to speak, and could only walk slowly behind Dak.

Regarding this, Ariel raised her hand, pointed at Cream, who was squatting beside a muddy field in front of her, and said slowly——

"I know that the title 'adventurer' may be beyond the understanding of ordinary people. Ordinary people should think that the adventurer's experience is very exciting, echoing in the battle and blood all day long. Every time I go out Adventures require extreme vigilance, beware of scary monsters that will come out from any angle."

"But in fact... the situation is actually the opposite."

Cream in front stretched out his hand, picked up a ball of "mud" on the ground and rubbed it, felt the humidity and temperature in it, and after confirming it, he stretched out his hand and made a "stop" motion for everyone, and then Jump on the crown of the tree again and look far into the distance.After confirming some things, he quickly slid down from the tree, made a gesture to everyone, and began to lead everyone along another road that didn't look very good.Obviously, this is a long way to go.

As Ariel walked, she continued to say——

"A real adventurer will try to avoid unnecessary danger."

"Adventurers are not immortal, and not everyone is like mochi and cheese, who can recover after being mutilated or fatally injured. Adventurers are all human beings, and human beings are actually a very fragile race , so we need to be as safe as possible.”

"Cream is our assassin and also a pathfinder. What he needs to do is to try to ensure the safety of our road ahead, bypass those terrifying monsters, and prevent conflicts with each other. Better not to fight."

"An adventurer who knows how to avoid danger is the most suitable adventurer for our mermaid song. Moreover, this sentence was actually taught to me by Cream, that is 'adventurers never take risks'. "

"So, if you feel that the journey along the way is very boring, there is almost no battle, very boring, too safe to be a little depressed, then it just proves that Cream's work is very smooth. It also means that we are a team Qualified adventurer team."

Regarding Ariel's remarks, Darke's eyes lit up slightly, as if he had suddenly realized.

As for the boy like Gel, he may feel that he understands a little bit, but there is still a little frustration between his brows.

Perhaps for him, he was finally able to follow the team of adventurers out for "adventures", but it turned out that he was walking around all the way, which was a very tortured thing.

In this way, everyone continued on their way.Be cautious along the way, there is not even any place that can be regarded as dangerous.

In the evening, Mochi wakes up and sweeps around everyone's campsite to make sure that there are no dangerous monsters approaching, and then take charge of the night watch.

In this way, they walked for almost three days in a row. At noon on the third day, after everyone turned over a hill...

A wisp of cooking smoke finally appeared in front of everyone's eyes.After seeing this wisp of cooking smoke, everyone was overjoyed and immediately quickened their pace.It didn't take long before there were trails and trails in the middle of the woods that were completely unintelligible.And continue to walk along the Yangchang path, and finally saw a village stationed on the mountainside.

"We found it!"

Seeing this village, Cream immediately cheered!

And now Ariel breathed a sigh of relief, nodded, raised her already numb feet and walked towards the village.

But when everyone slowly came to the gate of the village, they saw a figure rushing out of it suddenly.

It was a young man carrying a package, his face was full of anxiety and expectation.

But before he rushed in front of Ariel and the others, another figure also rushed out from a thatched hut next to him, grabbing the young man carrying the package.

"Why are you going? Are you really going?!"

Ariel saw it clearly, the young man who came out at the end was the president of the Warsong Guild—Goster.At this time, his face was full of anxiety, and he looked very nervous, and he refused to let go of the arm of the young man carrying the package.

When the young man saw Gouster, he gritted his teeth and wanted to shake off his hand.But after a flick, it didn't work. He snorted and said loudly, "Let me go! You have no right to restrict my freedom!"

Following the roar of the two people, other thatched cottages in the village began to come out one after another.

It was only after getting closer that Ariel could see the situation of the village clearly.

This is a small village.

Not to be polite, but really a very, very small village.

There are only about twenty thatched huts in this village, and they are scattered in various places on this hill.That is, the halfway up the mountain in front of me looks a little more relaxed, and six small thatched huts can be built side by side and stacked together.

At first glance, there is really nothing in the village.

The wooden barrels placed in the corners are all broken, and the thatch piles on the thatched roof are now also damaged in many cases.Under the eaves, some dried lumps similar to potatoes are dry and small, and they seem to have no appetite at all.

The author has something to say: I found a good website, all serialized here: Lanwen.com (LANWENS.COM)

And now those people who came out of the thatched huts, their clothes are also very tattered and full of patches.Although each of them has some jewelry connected in series by low-quality magic crystals on their hands and necks, it still gives people the feeling that a barbaric tribe uses animal bones to wear them as jewelry.

Gouster still held the young man tightly, and shouted: "What do you mean by restricting your freedom? Why did you leave so easily? Is it because you listened to the words of that foreigner?"

The young man shook it vigorously again, and finally shook off Dogster's hand, saying: "Outlander? Not just a few words from outsiders! Everything I live now! Village chief, you have also been there People from the capital, don't you want to leave such a ghostly place and go outside to develop? What else is here? I really don't know why I have to stay here!"

Gouster shook his head, and said with an almost pleading expression on his face: "Don't go, don't go, okay? The young people in the village have already gone more and more! If this goes on... If this goes on, our village But it will be gone! I will find a way to make our village better! Our village... our village has so many magic crystal mines! It will definitely make a fortune!"

The young man snorted again, glanced at a mountain behind the village with a desperate expression, and said, "Fat Cai Fa Cai, don't you even look at where our village is! Who would buy these things in such a ghostly place?" Low-quality magic crystal mine? Village chief, don’t stop me! I have made up my mind to go to the capital to work! Even if I work in the capital, the money I earn in one year is less than what the village can earn in ten years. need more!"

After all, the young man no longer cared about Gouster behind him, picked up his package and walked out of the village without hesitation.When passing by Ariel and the others, although he glanced at them, he continued to leave along the narrow path without looking back.

Watching the young man leave, Gouster's eyes were also full of frustration and powerlessness.He turned his head and looked at the villagers standing in front of the thatched huts.It can be seen that there are less than [-] people in the village now, and almost all the young and middle-aged people have run away. The rest are either old and weak and unable to travel far, or are left behind by the villagers who left The children, holding hands one by one, looked at themselves, the nominal "village head", dryly.

Their faces are now full of despair...

"Oh, sorry, it seems that I did something wrong."

At this moment, a voice came out from the thatched hut that the youth had just left.Then, one person walked out together.

Seeing this person, Ariel's eyes couldn't help but light up, her mouth opened slightly, she was very surprised!

Because this person is none other than the elf who approached him as a "caller" in Norris' mansion that day, and danced with him!

At this time, the sun was just past noon.The golden sunlight shone on the elf's long silver hair, reflecting a hazy light.

But when the elf sighed, the expression on Dogster's face gradually changed from the powerlessness and frustration just now to resentment!He turned his head away, quickly rushed in front of the elf, stretched out his hand and swiped out of the village, shouting loudly——

"Please leave! You are not welcome in our village now!"

The elf froze for a moment, his pretty face tilted slightly, and said, "Village chief, I... didn't mean it. I'm just a bard, and a bard's job is to tell stories... I lost my way to you village, you just promised to let me stay and rest for a few days?"

Gouster pointed his finger at the entrance and exit of the village again, and shouted loudly: "I'm sorry! Now, you are not welcome in our magic mine village! Please also bring your stories about the big cities full of flowers, people singing and dancing all day long, delicious food Goofy tales of fine wine leave our village!"

The elf also frowned. He turned the lute behind him around, wiped the old but well-maintained lute with his sleeve that also had a large patch, and said: " That is not a funny story. I am a bard, and the job of a bard is to pass on the real history in the form of stories. Village chief, you may not like my stories, but please don’t slander mine The story is 'funny'."

Gouster glared at him, then reached into his pocket, took out a piece of elemental crystal, pinched it in his hand, and shouted: "I don't care if your stories are funny or not? Get the hell out of me right now! Did you hear me! Anyway, I didn't I welcome you to stay with a smile, don’t force me to use my strength to drive you away now!"

Seeing Gouster's furious appearance now, the elf seemed a little frightened.He raised the lute to block in front of him, and shrank back, looking sleepy.In the end, he could only hang his head and walk towards the entrance of the village.

At this moment, he saw the people of Song of the Mermaid standing at the gate of the village for a long time. Obviously, he immediately recognized the girl wearing a hat and cloak, and immediately shouted joyfully——

"President Ariel Garcia?! What a coincidence! How did you appear here?"

Maybe it was because he was really angry just now, so Gouster didn't realize that there were several people standing at the entrance of the village until now.

When he heard the name "Ariel Garcia", he was slightly taken aback, and his gaze was also cast on Ariel.

Just at this moment, Ariel took off her hat and greeted the elf with a smile.

Gouster was slightly startled when he saw such a beauty as Ariel, but he quickly looked away from her.He quickly saw Cream standing beside Ariel, and after seeing Cream, his eyes immediately lit up with joy!Afterwards, he also saw Duck standing on the other side of Ariel, and couldn't help but gasp, his surprise beyond words!

However, when his eyes continued to search, trying to find the "President of Mermaid Song", he couldn't find it after searching for a long time, and the joy in his eyes couldn't help but drop.

"President Ariel, how did you come to this magic mine village?"

Ariel glanced at the lute in the elf's hand, and said with a smile, "I don't even know, so you're still a bard? That..."

The elf was stunned for a moment, then with the etiquette of a bard, he put his right hand on his chest, his left hand grasped the neck of the lute, and put his right foot back behind his left foot, bent down, saluted solemnly, and said——

"Igotari Terry Allison. You can call me Egg."

Ariel smiled slightly and said, "Mr. Yige, it's a blessing to be able to see you here. Your dance that day really made me feel a lot."

Egg took back his lute, put it on his back again, and said with a smile: "It's a great honor to be praised by you, Miss Ariel. Sigh... It's really a pity, I wanted to chat with you for two more days. But now... I may have to sleep in the wilderness~~~"

While talking, Egg turned his head and looked at the disappointed Dogster with a look like a puppy.

Ariel followed his gaze to look at the village head of the Demon Mine Village, stepped forward, and said with a smile: "President Goster, are you all right?"

Gouster was stunned for a moment, and seemed a little uncomfortable with the beautiful girl who suddenly appeared in front of him.After hesitating for a moment, he pointed to his nose and said, "Excuse me, do I know you?"

Ariel covered her mouth and chuckled, then put on her hat again, and said with a smile, "It's me, Eero Garcia. I'm sorry I kept it from you. Do you recognize me now?"
