Chapter 1040: Joining the gang
After a while, the strong man finally made a compromise. After his fellow catman thief carefully inspected the corpse of the explosive bear, he walked forward anxiously. As he walked, he kept asking: "What happened? What happened! What good stuff came out!?"
"Well, there was a [Sword of Ashkandi Brotherhood], a book [ "Chronicle of Dark Secrets", a "Great Magician's Torrent Staff"
The cat-man thief who leaned over to examine the corpse of the explosive bear stood up expressionlessly, and then stretched out his little finger to take it out. Ear, said lightly: "It's a great harvest."
The strong man was stunned at the time, and exclaimed: "Fuck! Is he so awesome! There are things!"
"Nothing."
The cat-man thief remained expressionless and shrugged: "It's my fault... I overestimated your intelligence."
The strong man pressed the button eagerly with a face full of eagerness. Holding his partner's shoulder, he said in a loud voice: "Is it your fault or not? I'm here with Da Hongliu! Where did you hide my Da Hongliu!?"
"Keep your dog eyes wide open and see clearly. "
The cat-man thief sighed, pointed to the huge bear corpse next to him, and said dryly: "This is a bear, or a bear-shaped monster living in the advanced leveling area. ”
"So what?"
The strong man frowned and continued to ask persistently: "Where is my equipment?!"
"Under normal circumstances, unless we receive something similar to [Hunting Explosive Bears] and other system-approved tasks, otherwise we can only get things like bear skins, bear paws, bear whips, bear ribs, and bear tenderloins.”
Cat-man thieves. While squatting down on the spot, he started to be careful The ground used his pair of sharp daggers to skin the bear, and said angrily: "You can't expect a pure, natural and pollution-free elite beast to carry a sword on its back, hold a book in its mouth, and hold it in its mouth when going out for a walk. You still have to hold a staff in your mouth , just to give those things away after being attacked by greedy adventurers like us."
The strong man scratched his temples and said with a puzzled face: "So what do you want to say?"< br>
"What I want to say is that under normal circumstances, a wild bear will not emerge from the corpse with a staff or sword or something like that after being beaten to death. Even if it has equipment, it can only be 'bear teeth'. It’s something like an amulet, and it has to be polished by your hands.”
The cat man thief gave the answer straightforwardly.
The strong man curled his lips and said: "Hey, that's nonsense. I electrocuted a wild boar in the Barrens back then. How could someone blow up a big shield for me?"
“Very huggy Sorry, there are no shield-breaking wild boars for you to kill.”
The cat-man thief replied without looking up, and said calmly: “The Innocent Realm is a very logical game.”< br>
The strong man pondered for a moment, and then his eyes suddenly widened: "So this bear didn't burst into a big torrent at all!"
"Well, that's right."
"The bear is It won’t explode equipment that can be worn by humans! ?”
“In fact, it may not explode equipment that can be worn by bears.”
“So you were actually lying to me!”
"Yes, I'm already reflecting on it."
"Then it's all bear meat, bear whip and so on, why don't you let me touch the body first!"
"I'm used to it. ."
"Why don't you die?"
"Because you are unfilial. I'm afraid no one will burn paper for me if I die first."
"Do you want to fight?!"
"Now?"
"Outside the game!"
"No."
"Fuck..."
Because of some annoying, inexplicable, and weird reasons, the two started to quarrel like this, and based on the analysis of their expressions and demeanor when they were "quarreling", it seemed that they were already familiar with this level of strife. .
"Ahem, what about..."
Mo, who finally found a chance to interrupt, coughed slightly, successfully attracted the attention of the two people, and smiled awkwardly: " By the way, I don’t know your names yet.”
“Ah!”
The cat-man thief immediately let out a soft cry, jumped up and smiled awkwardly at Mo: "Sorry, sorry, I was just talking nonsense before, and I haven't had time to introduce you. My name is Aramis, a mid-level thief. What you see is a handsome half-orc from the cat tribe, the leader of the Fire Brigade, this is just..."
"My name is Portos, an intermediate shaman, an intermediate knight, and the deputy leader of the Fire Brigade."
Before Aramis said something unpleasant, the tall Portos immediately jumped in front of him. After some introduction, he grinned at Mo and said: "A highlander with a relatively large frame, nice to meet you, buddy."
"Well, nice to meet you, but what is the brigade? What...?"
Mo subconsciously shook hands with Portos who extended his claws, and asked curiously: "Is it an organization like a mercenary group? You are so powerful. He is also the chief and deputy commander. "
"Well, it should be regarded as a kind of mercenary group, but it is rarely fixed in one place, so let's call it a brigade. "
When the other party was obviously an NPC, Aramis did not reveal much about the 'Brigade' setting added to the system after the update a few months ago. Instead, he laughed, then put his arm around Mo's shoulders and asked Porthos said: "This is Brother Bro, a half-step high-level warrior. He is a very nice person, even I'm willing to lend a helping hand to a trash like you with a bad personality."
"Hello, Bro. My nephew is not very good at talking. Please be more patient."
Bodo. Si shook Mo's hand hard again and said cheerfully: "I can kill this beast this time. Uh, I mean that beast lying on the ground is thanks to you. In this way, we will clean up this thing in a while. We only need one violent crystal core, and the rest can be roughly sold for dozens of gold coins. It’s all yours, okay?”
“Ahem, actually my name is Mo, although he took it for himself..."
Mo touched the tip of his nose awkwardly, then turned his gaze to the dead bear that had just died, shook his head and said: "One more thing is, I don’t think I should share this ‘trophy’ equally with you.”
Porthos blinked his eyes twice, and then rubbed his beard excitedly: "Wait! Are you a rich man! Don't you care about these three people? That's great. If you are a brother, you really can't see it. Get these rotten skins and meat , then we brothers will reluctantly..."
"Shut up"
The cat-man thief named Aramis interrupted his companion angrily, and then narrowed his eyes slightly. He raised his eyebrows Tong looked Mo up and down: "Although I don't rule out the possibility of 'a rebellious rich kid running away from home to sharpen himself', according to my observation, Brother Mo, you must be living a very tight life, right?"
< br>"Well , Indeed.”
Mo nodded and admitted readily: “I am not a rich person, although I will not starve to death, but basically I will not starve to death. .”
Aramis shrugged: "As expected, then I think you should accept this well-deserved trophy, instead of trying to make yourself look fat. You have done a lot just now, man."
"That's what I say, but I can probably guess that even without my help, you two should be able to kill this explosive bear, even if it is not easy to deal with in its violent state." Mo Wan'er smiled, his eyes calm. He glanced at Aramis and Porthos and said softly: "Although I realized it only after being belatedly, if I hadn't appeared, I think Brother Aramis, who is proficient in thieving skills and engineering, would have been there." A trap has been set up in the shallow forest in the distance. Let's wait until the Bodos brothers lure the explosive bear there and then use the location to start hunting. If you think about it this way, it's actually me who caused trouble for the two of you~"
< br>
"Uh, this..."
Aramis and Porthos immediately exchanged a look, and both fell into silence.
After a few seconds, Aramis slowly regained his pretentious attitude, raised a cynical arc at the corner of his mouth, and said with a smile: "Okay, I must admit that I underestimated you, Mo. Brother."
"Very keen insight, very suitable for being a RL or responsible for personnel work."
Portos smacked his lips, muttered casually, and then said with a grin. : "But... uh, Brother Mo, have you ever considered how much it would cost the two of us to kill this explosive bear if you didn't suddenly appear to help?"
Mo immediately Understanding the other party's implication, he frowned slightly and said hesitantly: "What do you mean..."
"Although it is just a rough idea, according to the combat power displayed by this explosive bear, To analyze, even if the two of us are indeed more than 80% sure that we can take care of it, just consumables such as potions, poisons, engineering props and magic scrolls will consume a lot more.”
Aramis gently wiped his right hand from the dozen or so small bottles on his belt, and said clearly and clearly: "With your cooperation, all these expenses have been saved. This is an undeniable fact."
Mo opened his mouth, but for a moment he couldn't think of anything to refute. Of course, this was also related to the fact that what Aramis said made sense and left no room for refutation.
These two people are very powerful, but without themselves, with their upper limit of strength that is less than the mid-level peak, they want to easily kill a Explosive Bear in a short time, especially a violent Explosive Bear. It is still very difficult, this is an undisputed fact.
"So, you have to at least take the share you deserve. This is the rule in the industry."
Aramis patted Mo's shoulder, and then continued to return to the other side. The 'dismemberment operation' begins in front of the bear carcass, moving Tsukuru quickly peeled off the almost undamaged bear skin, and in the process dug out the more valuable bear teeth, bear claws, and various internal organs that could be used as alchemy or pharmaceutical materials and arranged them in a smooth manner.
"We hack the violent crystal core, and convert everything left into money and divide it equally between the three of us."
Porthos carried his huge wooden gun that also functioned as a totem pole, and said viciously Staring into Mo's eyes: "Don't refuse. Let's not talk about the skinny guy next to me. I don't have the habit of taking advantage of others." Keep going, and as Aramis said before, his money was tight, so he smiled and nodded: "Thank you both very much. Let's go to a small town not far to the west of this mountain together later. , if I remember correctly, there should be purchase stalls of the Adventurer's Guild and many chambers of commerce there."
"We think so too~"
Portos laughed and said with a hand. : "Although you said west and north, the town is actually in the east."
"Ah! Sorry, my sense of direction has never been very good."
Mo laughed dryly with some shame, and said helplessly: "It's easy to get lost..."
Portos sucked Sniffed: "You are so... so humble."
"Seriously, man."
Aramis shook his head and sighed while disemboweling the explosive bear. Said: "If you weren't joking with me just now, this sense of direction basically means goodbye to the profession of adventurer."
Mo's face turned slightly red, and he smiled bitterly and said: "So in most cases I rarely take on missions that require leaving the town. I usually take on tasks such as finding pets for people, and occasionally I take on some short-distance caravan escort missions. , I can have a companion when I return."
"That's it..."
Aramis nodded slightly and said thoughtfully: "In other words, you are. The kind of lone wolf adventurer who doesn’t have a fixed teammate or partner?”
Mo scratched his cheek and nodded and replied: “That’s probably the case, maybe because my personality is not very good. You are easy to get along with, so I have never met a partner who is willing to form a team with you for a long time.”
“Really? I think Brother Mo has a good personality.”
Aramis said something seemingly casually, then turned to glance at Mo: "Speaking of which, do you want to try hanging out with the two of us?"
"Eh?"
Mo He was stunned immediately, and after reacting for a while, he said in surprise: "With you two?"
"Yes, for example, joining our [Bathing in Fire] Brigade or something, haha, don't Judging from the fact that we have the titles of chief and deputy leader, there are about thirty people registered. In fact, except for me and Portos, the other members are basically in name only, and it is no different from non-existence.”
After slowly putting the bloody bags in front of him into his luggage, Aramis casually threw the [Secondary Violent Crystal Core] dug out from the bear's head to Portos, stood up and grinned at Mo: " Three people are better than one. With the two of us, at least you don’t have to do odd jobs in crowded places because of the worry of getting lost.”
"To put it bluntly, in fact, this guy just thinks that you have good character and decent strength, and he just wants to recruit you as a tool."
Portos, who casually stuffed the crystal core into his bag, let out a long sigh. He said quietly: "I was deceived in the same way back then."
"No, you just have decent strength, there is no such thing as 'character'."
Aramis turned pale as Porthos, then smiled and extended his right hand to Mo: "What do you think?"
"I..."
Mo hesitated for a moment, and after realizing that he couldn't find a reason to refuse the other party's invitation, he smiled and held Aramis' hand hard: "It's an honor."
"Then~"
