Elite Mages’ Academy Chapter 69: Sneak attack
"I told them that we are a passing adventure team and need to stay here for one night. I hope they can provide some food and water." Gu Xiaoyue and Xiao Lin whispered.
"How did she answer?"
Gu Xiaoyue tilted her head and thought for a while: "Some vocabulary is not very clear, but it probably means that this is not a simple supply station, it seems to be specially set up for the nearby garrison, providing various supplies on a regular basis."
Xiao Lin's heart tightened, and his voice lowered: "Could they all be soldiers of the Thunder Kingdom?"
"Not really, they seem to be merchants." Gu Xiaoyue pushed her glasses, her eyes were a little confused: "I am also surprised that a country's army stationed on the border actually requires merchants to provide supplies. It seems that they are not Did not lie."
Xiao Lin raised his head and looked at a few people. Behind the woman, there was a whole team of men and women. They were also half curious and half alert looking at this side. Their clothes were different, but they didn't look like the military style. Of course, he wasn't sure whether the army in the Norma World had a habit of uniform clothing. After all, they still have too little information, but now they complain that they haven't learned the history class well and it's a bit late.
Xiao Lin asked: "For the time being, they are businessmen, are they willing to provide food and water?"
Gu Xiaoyue's face is slightly strange: "They say that they are merchants and only accept transactions."
Xiao Lin was dumbfounded immediately. Of course he understood the meaning of the transaction, but the question was what they would use for the transaction. He didn't think that the renminbi could circulate in the Norma world.
Gu Xiaoyue added: "The currency of the human countries in the Norma world is mainly precious metals, and it can also be bartered."
"Fuck it! Just grab it!" Lu Renyi's expression was about to kill and overwhelm.
Xiao Lin shook his head, not to mention that the opponents are more numerous than them, and their strength is unknown. After a long day of trek, there are still wounded in the team. The outcome is really hard to say, not to mention the need for this mission. To fight these merchants, it is better to avoid the casualties that can be avoided.
Probably seeing their embarrassment, the Norma woman pointed to Lu Renyi, and then made a call.
Lu Renyi was shocked, shrank his neck, and looked at Gu Xiaoyue nervously and said: "She, what is she talking about? Is it asking me to pay for it? She is so ugly!"
Xiao Lin rolled his eyes and understood what the woman meant. Gu Xiaoyue carefully distinguished the grammar, and then hesitated to translate: "She seems to be saying something can be exchanged. I don’t understand that vocabulary. ."
"It's the blade of the iguana, right." Xiao Lin didn't understand either, but the only thing Lu Renyi could exchange for was his flesh, the only thing left was the blade that was just picked off the corpse of the iguana.
"No! This is mine!" Lu Renyi was very unwilling.
Xiao Lin snatched two jet-black blades from his arms, and said: "Okay, can I bring the things here back to the academy?"
The Norma woman took the blade, her face showed joy, and she said a lot of words, then turned back, Gu Xiaoyue said softly: "She agreed. We need to wait for a while, and they will give some water and food. Us."
Xiao Lin exhaled slightly. In any case, avoiding the battle was a good result. Thinking of food and water, everyone showed a relaxed expression.
"Bring in a few wounded people first." Xiao Lin ordered. Just now because of fears that there might be a conflict, a few injured people didn't let them into the cave.
It’s not a big problem with the few people injured by the iguana. Only the girl who accidentally ate the wild fruit is still weak. The wild fruit is not deadly poisonous, but it lasts for a long time. After she entered the cave, she Lying against the cold rock wall, licking his dry lips, he said with a straight face: "I'm so sorry, I hurt you."
"It's okay, you are too thirsty. Don't worry, there will be water later."
A few minutes later, a few men came over with a few jugs and bowls, as well as a few dried meat, and left quickly after they were placed on the ground. Although the two sides reached a deal, the basic vigilance was impossible. Put it down, very consciously not to take the initiative to approach the other side.
The cool water at this moment is like a jade jade dew. Everyone's eyes are shining, and they are rushing forward frantically, rushing to drink. The bowl sent by the other party is very limited, and the whole head is buried in the water without grabbing the bowl. Drinking in the jar.
"Damn! Are you disgusting!" A woman yelled in disgust, but after hesitating for a moment, she couldn't help but learn how to do it.
Xiao Lin shook his head helplessly. He always controlled the water along the way. Although he was thirsty, there was still a trace of water in the kettle. He didn't rush to grab it with everyone. He took a piece of jerky and sat next to him. Looking at Gu Xiaoyue, who also didn't grab water, she tore the jerky in half and handed it over, saying: "Take some, I don't see you moving the biscuits in your bag at all along the way."
Gu Xiaoyue took the dried meat, took a small bite, chewed for a long time, swallowed, and whispered: "If we can't find a supply station, biscuits are our last food reserve, so we naturally have to save it."
Xiao Lin smiled and took a bite of the jerky meat. I don’t know what the meat is. The meat is dry and smells unpleasant. It feels like rotten meat. After swallowing it in his belly, he almost wanted to vomit on the spot. Coming out, he glanced at the girl with a calm face, and he abruptly suppressed the feeling of vomiting~IndoMTL.com~ Although this meat is awful, it is quite full. After a few mouthfuls, Xiao Lin feels his belly. It rose slightly. He looked at the remaining jerky and estimated in his mind. If it is well distributed, 20 of them can last for two days.
While thinking about how to get more food, Xiao Lin looked up and drank the last water in the kettle, then got up to fill the kettle, but saw Lu Renyi who was taking the meat suddenly "Ah. "With a sound, he fell straight in front of his eyes, rubbing his stomach in pain, and other people also fell down one after another.
Xiao Lin was shocked. In the light of his eyes, several figures were rushing towards this side. He almost subconsciously raised the new-handed staff in his left hand and released two consecutive ice bullets.
The light in the cave is very dim, and Xiao Lin has no time to use his mental power to slowly lock the enemy in the fire, but fortunately the number of opponents is large, and they are close to each other. Dao flew in an oblique arc, and two consecutive screams and crisp crackles showed that his two spells did not fail.
Gu Xiaoyue's alertness is also very high. After the ice bomb technique, she followed up with three consecutive energy bombs. She aimed at the opposite crowd. Amidst the bursts of explosions, three people were directly hit on the spot. After the mud, the people next to him were also affected by the shock wave of the explosion. Although they were not dead, they also screamed and fell down, sustaining varying degrees of injury.
The sudden battle caused a lot of people to get caught up on the spot. Although Xiao Lin and Gu Xiaoyue's quick counterattack were unable to completely block the Norma on the opposite side, their spell attacks seemed to be beyond their expectations. The sneak attack was broken. The uninjured people all got up, each armed with weapons to stand apart, but looked a little jealous of Xiao Lin and Gu Xiaoyue, and for a while did not dare to go up easily. ) Book friends hurry up and pay attention!
