Chapter 1632 Daily Life
"etc!"
"Don't get excited!"
"I'll give it to you!"
Ed Wang looked at the Molotov cocktail that was lit in Kieran's hand and his whole body felt bad.
Has he encountered a madman?
Will we die together if we don't agree with each other?
Can we still have a good conversation?
I will definitely never come here again!
It’s so exhausting!
Just after Ed King made his decision in his heart, the ignited Molotov cocktail flew out of Kieran's hand, passed by Ed King's head, and landed at the door of the restaurant.
Snapped!
boom!
The bottle shattered, and the gasoline inside caught fire and ignited.
The fire illuminated the surroundings, and several dead people hiding in the shadows were reduced to nothing in the flames.
Ed Wang stared at this scene blankly.
When he turned his head to look at Kieran again, there was undisguised surprise on his face.
"how did you do it?"
Ed Wang asked.
Although he was in a bad condition due to the [Memory Deletor] and his back was to the door, this did not mean that Kieran could easily spot the deceased outside the door.
Even if you reach the peak of ordinary people, you can't do this.
unless……
Beyond the peak of ordinary people!
In an instant, Ed Wang instinctively shook his head when he came up with this answer.
He didn't believe that a young man like Qin Ran could reach such a level. After all, among the 'Herders', only those who reached the 'Bullingipace' could surpass the limits of ordinary people.
And him?
It has only just reached the edge of 'Bringipace' and has not yet become the real 'Bringipace'.
"There are more dangers in the mountains and forests than you think!"
“A careless moment is death.”
"So, I'm used to being on guard."
Kieran replied.
"worth learning."
Ed King nodded, agreeing with Qin Ran's answer.
Then, the herder took out another [Copper Crossing Coin], put it on his index finger, and flicked it with his thumb.
Ding!
After a crisp sound, [Tongdu Qian] rolled across an arc and landed at the door of the restaurant without any bounce. When it came into contact with the remaining flames, it seemed to take root on the ground, an invisible force. They flew out in all directions, like wind, blowing around the entire restaurant.
After a while, the [Copper Crossing Coin] quickly turned from yellow-orange to dull, just like an ordinary coin that had been corroded.
After Ed Wang felt it carefully, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"Those guys you just sent away are more fragrant than I imagined."
"However, they won't appear again for the time being."
"But for the sake of safety, I suggest you and your brother leave here temporarily. It doesn't need to be long. A week to two weeks will be enough for you to be safe."
Ed Wang suggested again.
"Escape is not the answer."
"We escaped the first time and we escaped the second time."
"The third time? What about the fourth time?"
"There comes a time when we can't escape it."
"Instead of that, it's better to learn to fight."
Qin Ran shook his head.
Escape is never an option.
There comes a time when you can't avoid it.
When things arise, they must be solved. Don't pile them up or delay them, otherwise they will really become unsolvable matters.
"Did you also learn this in the mountains?"
Ed Wang asked curiously.
"So be it."
Qin Ran said vaguely.
Of course, this was not learned in the mountains, but Qin Ran's personal experience.
Even now, Kieran can't forget the feeling of despair, powerlessness, and suffocation he felt when facing death. At this moment, this feeling of despair, powerlessness, and suffocation has become the driving force for him to move forward.
Kieran stretched out his hand and placed it on the table.
"What?"
Ed Wang was stunned.
"You just said, give me a weapon."
Qin Ran reminded the other party.
"I think……"
"Do you want to keep your words?"
Qin Ran interrupted Ed King's remarks.
Immediately, the 'herder''s face turned red.
"Who can keep his word?"
"Take it!"
The 'Herder' said and took out a sword from his backpack.
The sword was wrapped with animal skin strips and had no scabbard. After shaking off the animal skin, a cold light shot out, revealing the sword blade which was 5cm wide and 80cm long.
Holding the wooden hilt, the information about the sword in front of him appeared clearly in Qin Ran's eyes.
[Name: Sharp Standard Sword]
[Type: Weapon]
[Quality: Magic]
[Attack power: strong]
[Attributes: 1, tear; 2, burn]
[Special effects: none]
[Requirement: Power E]
[Whether this copy can be taken out: No]
[Note: Most of the standard swords worn by Velites, Hastati and other levels in the 'Herders' organization are given by elders and teachers, and a small number of them are received from the 'Herders' organization. They are not the best weapons. , but it is the easiest weapon to popularize. You don't need to learn more skills, you only need to have enough strength to use it. 】
…
[Tear: The special runes in the sword make it more effective against the deceased; after being stabbed or cut, the wound of the deceased will be in a torn state, making it difficult to heal]
[Burn: The sword will cause an extra +1 damage to the dead, whether it is a visible or invisible dead]
…
Qin Ran held the hilt of the sword and made a chopping motion to one side.
Woo!
Immediately, the sound of the sword tearing through the air echoed in the restaurant.
"good!"
Qin Ran commented sincerely.
For Kieran now, nothing is more practical than a weapon that only requires strength and no skill to master.
"Of course not bad!"
"Even if it is not one of those special weapons, it is considered a high-quality standard equipment, and it is also the status symbol of the 'Herders' of Vilites and Hastati. However, you are different! As an old friend of your father, I am I am worried that you will be in danger, so I give it to you for self-defense, it is not a status symbol."
Ed Wang said to himself.
"Um."
Kieran nodded without any retort.
The sharp prefix says it all.
And the next words?
He even informed him of the 'origin' of the sword and would no longer force him to join the 'Herders'.
Even if the other party was repaying a favor, it was enough to make Kieran feel sincere.
"Also, as your father's old friend, I have the obligation to take care of you."
"I will help you deal with what happens here. Whatever happens in the future, as long as it does not harm ordinary people or violate laws and disciplines, you can blame it on me."
"But if you really hurt ordinary people or break the law..."
Ed King didn't finish his words, but the fierce aura exuding from his body was enough to explain everything.
Then, the sharp aura disappeared, and Ed Wang returned to the face of a middle-aged man again, and began to talk about some things.
After talking for a full two hours, the 'herder' got up and walked out with some unfinished thoughts.
"It's settled."
Qin Ran said this as he watched the other party's leaving figure.
"Two favors?"
Ed Wang asked back without stopping.
"No."
"It's your act of preparing to erase my memory."
Qin Ran said.
Ed Wang was stunned for a moment, unable to react.
Aren't the two the same thing?
"baffling."
With a murmur, Ed King waved his hand without turning around, and his figure gradually disappeared into the pre-dawn night.
After confirming that the other party had left, Mimosa cautiously walked out of the kitchen.
Mimosa gets nervous every time she comes into contact with a stranger.
Not to mention the people on the mysterious side of the dungeon world.
Every contact with such a person means danger, battle, and even more endless troubles.
"It's fine."
"What's my breakfast?"
Looking at Mimosa's worried eyes, Qin Ran smiled and changed the subject.
“Chicken wontons and three fresh buns.”
Mimosa said immediately.
The tacit understanding between the two does not require too many inquiries, as long as they do their respective things well.
In the distance, a flash of white appeared in the sky.
Sunrise.
A new day has begun.
After falling asleep with mimosa, Qin Ran leaned against the bed, holding the [Sharp Standard Sword], quietly adapting to his extremely 'weak' body, and sensing the five major sources of power in his body.
Time passed quickly as Qin Ran adjusted.
At noon, Mimosa opened her eyes and looked at Qin Ran, who was sitting on the edge of the bed, bathing in the warm autumn sun. She couldn't help but retract her head into the quilt, revealing only a pair of bright eyes.
Then, it curved.
Nothing to get used to.
With a smile, Mimosa quietly got out of the quilt and prepared to go downstairs to cook.
Just as Mimosa put on her shoes and walked downstairs, Qin Ran stood up quietly and followed.
When going down the stairs, Mimosa noticed that Kieran was following him.
"You should rest a little longer."
"Didn't King Ed say that the dead would not appear during the day?"
"It's very safe."
"I'll call you when lunch is ready."
Mimosa raised her hand and pushed Qin Ran, indicating that Qin Ran should rest.
"He was talking about the general situation."
"There will be special times too."
"Do not worry."
"It's the same thing when I sleep in a chair."
Saying that, Qin Ran pulled Mimosa downstairs without any explanation. After pushing Mimosa into the kitchen, he sat in the chair, put his feet on the bar, held the sword in his arms, and squinted slightly. He opened his eyes.
He has adapted to his extremely 'weak' body.
He was confident that this body at this moment would exert its greatest power.
And the five major sources of power?
Even with several enhancements, it is still very subtle.
Not to mention relying on the five sources of power to break through the constraints on oneself, even some of the characteristics of the five sources of power themselves have not appeared, only the most basic energy.
"There's still a lot to be desired!"
Qin Ran whispered to himself.
Then, his nose couldn't help but twitch.
He smelled roasted pork, meatballs, fried tofu, potatoes, cabbage, and vermicelli.
Assorted pot?
Qin Ran was stunned and looked in the direction of the kitchen involuntarily.
Mimosa, wearing heat-proof gloves, was walking out carrying a copper pot.
Gulu, Gulu.
Crack, crackle.
The sound of soup boiling and charcoal burning.
When the lid of the pot is opened, the fragrant steam rises straight up.
And little sparks flew up, towards the face of Mimosa who had just put down the copper pot. Before Mimosa could retreat, Qin Ran raised his hand and held it in his hand.
"Is it hot?"
Mimosa took off her insulated gloves, grabbed Kieran's left hand with both hands, and inspected it carefully.
A few extinguished sparks turned into black dots and landed in Kieran's palm. As he blew on the mimosa, these black dots immediately flew up and disappeared without a trace.
After seeing that there were no burns on her palms or fingers, Mimosa breathed a sigh of relief.
Then, Mimosa suddenly discovered that Kieran's palms were not only slender and strong, but also had some calluses on the palms, fingertips and other places.
Is this the palm of 2567?
It was the first time that Mimosa saw Kieran's palm so closely and carefully, and she felt a little shy.
"Left holding the sword."
"It's fine."
"Have a meal."
After Qin Ran explained with a smile, his eyes were completely attracted by the assorted pot, and he didn't notice anything strange about the mimosa at all.
In the middle of the round copper pot, charcoal is burning brightly, emitting heat. In the surrounding pots, a layer of braised pork of the same size and thickness is spread on the top layer.
When the braised pork is picked up, the round meatballs are exposed.
Under the meatballs are fried tofu and fried potatoes.
The bottom layer is cabbage vermicelli.
Kieran ate it layer by layer.
The different levels of texture combined with the delicious stock are all very tasty. The roasted meat is fat but not greasy, the meatballs are soft and delicious, the fried tofu is charred on the outside and tender on the inside, and the fried potatoes have a different kind of waxy feel, while at the bottom of the pot The cabbage vermicelli is completely integrated into the richness of the meat.
Especially after adding another soup stock to the mimosa, Kieran felt a different kind of satisfaction when he picked up the spoon and drank the soup and ate the vegetables.
The entire copper pot was eaten by Qin Ran.
Moreover, after filling the pot with mimosa three times in a row, Qin Ran took a deep breath and leaned back in his chair comfortably.
After taking several deep breaths, Qin Ran stood up from the chair, picked up the copper pot and washed it.
Mimosa cooks, and he washes the pots and dishes.
This has been agreed upon long ago.
However, Mimosa followed him in, picked up two bags of scraps that had been packed long ago, and walked out of the restaurant.
The restaurant does not have a back door.
There is only entrance and exit through the main entrance.
Standing in the kitchen, Kieran could clearly see Mimosa opening a bag of leftover ingredients, placing it on the side of the road, and then quietly hiding aside and waiting.
After a while, several stray dogs ran out wagging their tails, dived into the bag and started eating.
At the entrance of the street, several stray cats were meowing.
After Mimosa placed another bag of scraps far away, the stray cats quickly ran over.
Mimosa touched the cats and dogs with a smile.
Stray animals that should be wary were very docile and allowed to be petted by Mimosa.
When all the food was finished, the dogs wagged their tails and the cats meowed.
"Come back in the evening and I will prepare delicious food for you~"
Mimosa picked up the empty bag, threw it into the trash can, and waved goodbye to the cats and dogs.
As if understanding human nature, the cats and dogs quickly disappeared.
Humming a cheerful tune, Mimosa returned to the kitchen.
"Aren't you afraid of cats and dogs?"
Kieran asked slightly surprised.
In his impression, it is normal for Mimosa to be so timid that she is afraid of everything.
"It was a little bit at first, but after I got Afu, I wasn't afraid of dogs anymore. Then, I found that cats weren't scary either, and they were very willing to get close to me."
"Outside, birds, squirrels and the like are also happy to play with me."
"It's a pity I can't keep them."
Mimosa became a little depressed as she spoke.
"Then you can try to raise them here and then take them back."
Kieran suggested.
"cocoa……"
"give it to me."
Kieran said with a smile.
He was familiar with contracts.
After all, there is such a follower who has been branded countless times, and he knows it by heart.
It may not be possible to make a powerful contract, but an ordinary one is really not difficult for him as long as the materials are enough.
"Very good!"
Mimosa, who fully believed that Kieran meant what he said, cheered excitedly.
The back kitchen was filled with mimosa laughter.
Qin Ran was infected by this joy and had a smile on his face all afternoon.
It wasn't until the restaurant opened in the evening that Qin Ran stopped smiling and looked at the guest who made him unhappy with a slight frown.
"Boss, give me wine!"
"liquor!"
Stumbling Amy pushed the door open and staggered in. Before she fell, she held on to the bar, but was unable to sit down in the chair. Then, she half-collapsed on the ground, mumbling incessantly. .
The smell of alcohol that hit his nostrils made Qin Ran frown even more.
But what concerned him most was the sound that followed the drunken woman outside the restaurant door...
Wow!
There was a sound of chains.
