Chapter 504
"Of course I dived into the water to find the ore." Conte said, "Brother Robert dived in just now, and picked up seventy-two pieces of ore in a short time. Even if our luck is not as good as his, each of us picked up one or two pieces of ore." It shouldn’t be a problem, no matter how improvised, maybe we can do something.”
"Huh? Makes sense!" the black knights said, "Anyway, we're going to camp by the lake all night tonight, so we have enough time to go down and touch it."
A black knight turned his head and said to Robb, "Brother Robert, where did you find the ore in the lake? Show us the ore, and we will pick it up too."
Robb didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and thought: I used the mining skills in the game to dig it up, and you don't know the mining skills, so even if you let you hold your breath and dive to the bottom, how can you mine? Are you working hard on underwater mining?
But forget it, this kind of thing is not for Robb to think about!
He pointed to the center of the lake: "I picked it up there."
"Okay, then let's try our luck." Conte was the first to rush to the lake, stripped naked, and jumped into the water with a splash, followed by a large group of black knights and wind knights, also smiling followed by jumping in.
Robb knew they were destined to get nothing, but he didn't say anything. He sneaked into the woods, broke a branch, twisted it casually where no one was looking, and twisted it into a fishing rod. Then he came out of the woods and sat down. Fish in silence by the lake.
Madeleine sat tenderly beside him, fishing with him.
She is actually a woman who is not good at words. It can be seen from the fact that she always praises Robb every time she speaks. Maybe she also feels this herself, so she should talk less.
This made Robb a little worried: "Madeleine."
"Um?"
"Actually...you don't have to deliberately want to make me happy, for fear of making me angry." Robb said, "Even changing yourself for this, I don't think it's really necessary."
"Why?"
"Live your own style, show your own personality, it will be more lovely."
"Really?" Madeleine said happily, "Is it possible?"
"Of course you can." Robb said, "I also hope that you can be more self-sufficient."
Because Madeleine ran away since she was a child, she didn't actually live the life of a young lady. Most of the time, she was struggling with difficulties with the queen, surrounded by a large group of gloomy necromancers and smelly black knights. grew among them.
The black knights taught them fighting (the queen didn't learn much), and the necromancers taught them magic (Madeline didn't learn much).
The different learning directions of the two also resulted in completely different personalities of the two.
The queen, who majored in magic, is good at scheming and has a relatively stable personality. She seldom looks happy and her mood is volatile.
But Madeleine, who majored in combat skills, has a more generous personality, happy and sad, crying and laughing, restless.
In front of Robb, she always pretended to be a good girl, but she was actually quite tired.
Hearing Robb say this now, I felt a lot more relaxed.
Swipe the ground and jumped up: "That's great. In fact, when I saw you fishing, I wanted to fish a long time ago, but I was afraid that you would say that it's not good for me to be a girl."
"What's wrong with girls playing fishing?" Robb smiled: "Come together, I'll make you a fishing rod."
He got into the woods, quietly twisted a fishing rod, and handed it to Madeleine.
"Huh? How fast are you making fishing rods?" Madeleine wondered.
"It's nothing technical." Robb said, "It's just a branch hanging from a thread."
"This... is true." Madeleine smiled and said, "Then I'm going to go fishing."
She dug an earthworm and hung it on the hook, then flicked the fishing rod violently, the hook flew far away and sank into the lake, just a few seconds after she threw it down, she saw the fish float suddenly Shaking: "Ah, I caught something just as soon as I swung the hook."
"So powerful?" Luo Bai laughed. She didn't use fishing skills, but real fishing methods. She didn't expect the speed to fly: "Pull it up and have a look."
When Madeleine pulled hard, she heard a crash in the lake, and Conte's head popped out, screaming: "Who, who hooked me with a fishhook and pulled it up hard? It's terrible!"
Robb: "..."
Madeleine: "..."
Conte screamed: "Ah, a big piece of my skin was ripped off, and there was a lot of blood. Pastor, I need a pastor."
A large group of people by the lake burst into laughter, and a happy air filled the camp.
Madeleine also couldn't help laughing out loud, showing her usual temperament and heroism. Robb sat beside her and looked at her beautiful profile, thinking: Such Madeleine is indeed more beautiful!
Chapter 706 Find the pastor quickly, he is poisoned
Early the next morning, the army pulled out of camp and continued to advance.
The scouts of the Black Soil Knights and the Storm Knights spread out to the two wings and spread far away. It is necessary to prevent what happened yesterday from happening again, and the enemy can no longer easily ambush their own troops.
Madeleine also sent someone to notify the vanguard army walking ahead, asking them to be more vigilant, and to search the road carefully, so as not to lay mines on the main army behind.
After such a careful arrangement, she never ran into an enemy ambush force along the way. Bimondra also understood that after the Thunder Knights' ambush failed, Madeleine would definitely be more vigilant. If you don't give them a chance, if you arrange someone to ambush them, you will be giving away their heads. There is no need to do so.
Robb drove all kinds of finding skills along the way, sometimes "looking for ore", went out to pick up two ores; sometimes "searched for gems", went out to pick up two gems; Sometimes "hunt for herbs" and go out and dig up two flowers.
He no longer wanted to fight the black dragon in the nude, and the next time he faced the black dragon, he must get a nice outfit so that he wouldn't have to play so hard.
Moreover, when he did these things, he didn't find it annoying, because the dragon Bahamut was the only BOSS he hadn't defeated in "Blade of Darkness", although he was tired of other things, but for I still have a certain interest in killing this boss.
It can be regarded as making up for the last regret of that game!
Along the way, Robb picked up a big sack of things. Unfortunately, the areas he passed this time were all areas with frequent human activities. To put it bluntly, it was the reason for "low-level areas". Nothing great was found.
The best ore he picked up was the ore from last time, and the best wood was the wood of life. He already had it. He only picked up some intermediate-level wood along the way, and he planned to use this wood to rub a few staffs later. , Longbow, arm the slag soldiers, their output will be more powerful when they fight the black dragon next time.
In addition, the last time he fought the Black Dragon, he didn't have a good blue bottle to replenish MP, which also made him feel troublesome, so he picked a lot of herbs along the way. Bag.
In the end, he carried a big bag of ore, a bag of herbs, a pile of wood, and a bag of gems. In this real world without infinite backpacks, it's really hard to carry so many things. They had to be piled on the team's grain truck and transported away by the logistics team.
Soon, the army arrived at a small town not far from the City of the Saints.
This small town originally had a population of more than 5,000, but after the four-year civil war between the East and the West, this small town near the capital of the saints was fought back and forth by the two armies, and countless bitter battles were fought. Ordinary people couldn't stand such a toss, so they quickly moved to other places.
As a result, there were almost no ordinary residents in the city, all the houses were turned into barracks, the walls were thickened and raised, and the whole city became a purely military fortress.
A few years ago, this fortress was repeatedly contested by the two armies, but in the past year or so, Miss Queen's army has firmly grasped the control of this fortress, using it as a strategic target for the attack on the capital of the saints. The bridgehead is built here, and there are abundant supplies and a large number of troops stored here.
When Robb and Madeleine arrived, the vanguard army had already stationed in the fortress. Robb saw a large number of demihumans, including leopard people, cat people, tiger people, werewolves, etc. There are really many kinds. There are many magical props filled with mana on the city wall, various single-barreled individual magical props, and large Katyushas that cannot be carried by a single soldier. There are so many of them that it can be said that they are countless.
Madeleine also introduced to him: "There are a lot of mines buried on three sides of the city, but there are not many mines in the direction of the road of light."
Seeing Robb's weird expression, Madeleine said: "It's better not to prepare more. When we didn't come, there was only a small group of troops stationed in this city. In case Mundra's people suddenly came to snatch this The fortress must prepare a large number of magic items, so that it can survive the arrival of reinforcements when it is attacked."
Robb nodded, thinking to himself: Has all the money that Miss Queen has earned in the past few years been spent here? With so many magic tools, with Siegran's productivity, I'm afraid it's really a waste of money.
Conte next to him couldn't help but asked, "With so many magic items, the capital of the saints can't be attacked?"
