Chapter 425: Exchange Equipment, Buy One Get One Free
"Alaho, open."
The unlocking spell hit the wooden door, and the rotten door handle turned and made a creaking sound.
Aaron walked along a staircase into the dark room. Due to the war, the edge of the dark room also collapsed, but the overall preservation was relatively intact.
After passing through an iron gate, Aaron came to the deepest position.
There are four large wooden boxes here, and in front of the wooden boxes are four different statues, two men and two women.
"It looks like there are really four kings!" Aaron shook his head and then opened the treasure chest.
Unlike what he thought, it was not the gold and silver treasures of the restoration of the country, nor the precious historical books, but the personal belongings of the four kings.
Clothes, armor, swords, bows and arrows, but the most eye-catching thing was a bottle of red potion.
As a disciple of the master of potions and a descendant of the master of botany, Aaron couldn't take his eyes away the moment he saw the potion.
Potion, an incredible potion, the cost-effectiveness is not lower than his resurrection potion.
Swish!
Aaron used his magic wand to draw a line across his palm, and a scarlet bloodstain appeared.
He immediately used the floating spell to extract a drop of red potion, and after taking it, the wound healed immediately.
"No matter how badly injured you are, as long as you have a breath left, you can recover?
The effect is a bit abnormal." Aaron admired and had a little more respect for this world. The person who could make such a potion was definitely not an ordinary person.
More importantly, this bottle of medicine seemed to be endless. As soon as one drop was taken out, another drop appeared in the bottle.
Bows and arrows also have a certain amount of magic. Those red arrows seem to be able to improve the hit rate to a certain extent according to the will of the owner.
The two swords were taken out of the treasure chests of two male kings. After hundreds of years, they are still sharp. They are not as good as the enemy-fighting sword and beast-biting sword made by the elves, but they are also good magic weapons.
"Good equipment, it's mine now." Aaron said very calmly, without any guilt.
Unowned things, whoever finds it belongs to him.
Rather than leaving it to gather dust in a dark secret room, it would be better for him to make full use of it. It is not impossible for him to go down in history in the future.
When Aaron left the secret room, he had two swords on his waist, a set of bows and arrows on his back, and a bottle of red potion in his pocket.
It had been two days since he came to this world. This was the first time he experienced the joy of being fully armed. This trip was not in vain.
......
After changing a set of equipment, Aaron picked a few fruits and continued on his way.
He didn't want to stay here as a savage. Finding human society as soon as possible was the top priority.
Continuing to move forward along the direction of the river, he walked into a dense forest and waded through water several times, but he didn't care because he felt that he was getting closer and closer to human society.
Unknowingly, night fell.
Camping in the deep jungle was dangerous, but he had no choice.
He dug a pit on the ground, covered it with a thick layer of leaves, and then started a fire.
Da! Da! Da!
Just as Aaron was preparing to have dinner, the sound of horse hooves attracted his attention.
He pricked up his ears and listened carefully.
This was not the footsteps of a horse. There were at least seven or eight horses chasing after the horse.
But that was not important. What was important was the riders.
After tonight, he would have completed three days of wilderness survival, but if he continued, he would not last long.
He did not care what these people were doing, but he must not let them run away, otherwise God knew how long he would have to wander around in this primeval forest.
Thinking of this, Aaron did not care about finishing his meal and followed the sound of horse hooves.
It was impossible to outrun four legs with only two legs, but Aaron did it easily. His footsteps were light, but he followed closely behind the horse team and kept getting closer to the leader.
But gradually he found something wrong. The leading young man seemed a little panicked and had no route planned at all, just to get rid of the seven or eight people behind him.
"Fuck! He's being chased!
It's so unlucky that I can encounter such a mess." Aaron said depressedly. He needed these people to take him to the human town, but the question was who to help?
He couldn't even tell which side was good and which side was evil.
If the side with more people was good, he would definitely stop the escaping young man without saying a word, which would not only punish evil and promote good, but also rob a horse, so that he wouldn't have such a hard time on the road.
But if the side with more people was evil, he would have to consider whether to help the young man.
It's not difficult to save him, but doing so would inevitably offend the forces behind the seven or eight people.
Judging from their clothes, these people are elite soldiers, and behind them are either nobles or royal families.
He was new here and unfamiliar with the place. It would not be good for him to offend these powerful people, but there would be a lot of disadvantages. Even the strong dragon can't suppress the local snake!
"What a trouble!"
Aaron patted his forehead and decided to see the situation first.
If the man can escape, then catch him first, and then get the information of this world from his mouth.
If he can't escape... help him first, then catch him, and take it one step at a time!
Bang!
At this time, the young man left the pursuers hundreds of meters away, but he was knocked off the horse by a broken piece of wood.
One of his feet was hanging on the stirrup, and he was dragged forward by the horse.
Seeing this, Aaron couldn't help but twitch his mouth.
No wonder when the ancestor of Gester taught him driving skills, he warned him that the most important thing in driving is to keep an eye on all directions and listen to all directions. He didn't take it seriously at the time, but now it seems that he was careless.
A living example is in front of us!
This guy just turned his head and got into a traffic accident. He was dragged by the horse and rubbed on the ground. It looks painful.
But he was smart enough to pull his right foot off the stirrup.
The young man lay on the ground, breathing heavily, feeling the feeling of surviving a disaster.
"The opportunity has come."
Aaron was about to go over and control the man, when two dwarves with swords emerged from the roots of a tree not far away. He was so frightened that he immediately hid behind a tree.
Dwarves, there are dwarves in this world?
Aaron's mood was ups and downs. Could it be that this world, like the previous world, is controlled by several powerful races?
A dwarf rushed towards the young man, as if to kill him.
But when he was less than one meter away from the young man, he stopped, and there was a hint of surprise and surprise in his murderous expression.
At this time, the pursuers came over, and the dwarf looked at the young man deeply, turned around and said to the other dwarf: "Deal with him."
After that, he rushed towards the pursuers alone.
Another dwarf approached the young man with a sword, and the young man seemed to realize something and quickly reached out to grab the ground.
But what he grabbed was not a long sword that could protect his life, but a white horn.
"No!" The dwarf was horrified and wanted to stop him, but he was still a step too late.
Woo!
A melodious horn sounded in the forest.
The dwarf could not care less, and hit the young man on the head with the hilt of a sword, knocking him unconscious.
He did not kill him, but dragged the young man towards the tree hole.
Bang!
A scabbard suddenly hit the dwarf's head, and his eyes went black, and he fell straight to the ground.
"This is called the mantis stalks the cicada, while the oriole is behind." Aaron looked at the unconscious young human and the gloomy dwarf, and his mood was still very good, buy one get one free!
He did not delay at all, pulled the two into the tree hole, and wiped out the traces as much as possible.
The sound of horse hooves gradually approached, and the pursuers stopped here.
"He was here just now."
"Maybe he has fled deep into the forest, General, should we chase him?"
The general hesitated for a moment and said in a deep voice: "Let's talk about it when we get back. This forest is more dangerous than we thought.
We have captured a mythical creature, which is enough for us to report to His Majesty."
The whole group turned back, but compared with before, there was a black sack on his horse's back. What was inside was self-evident.
......
Aaron looked at the tree hole, which was much larger than it looked from the outside.
The living room, bedroom, and kitchen were all available. Although small, they had everything. Except for the lack of a bathroom, it was simply a low-end version of Bag Bottom.
Aaron tied up the dwarf and the young human tightly, and then sat on a chair. He tapped the table with his fingers and murmured the little information he had just obtained.
"Forest... Danger... Mythical creatures..."
Humans have a certain awe of the forest, but not too much, and this awe is slowly fading.
Dwarves should be mythical creatures. They hide in the forest and dare not be discovered by humans.
"That is to say, humans currently dominate the world, while other creatures hide and barely survive in some uninhabited places.
But the ruins he found are in the forest, and the four humans are ruling that kingdom...
Could it be that hundreds of years ago, humans and so-called mythical creatures could coexist peacefully, and when that kingdom was captured by pirates, everything changed dramatically."
Gurgle~
Just as Aaron was patiently deducing history, the sound of his stomach interrupted his thoughts.
He remembered that he hadn't eaten yet. Three days of wilderness survival, every day he was either on the road or on the way to the road, which was a huge consumption of physical strength. He couldn't replenish energy in time.
But when Aaron reached out to his dry food bag, he touched nothing, and his face collapsed instantly.
Just now, he was only concerned with chasing these people, and all the rations, including wild fruits, fell into the pit he dug before.
Gurgle~
The stomach protested again.
"Why are you yelling? You're the only one who's hungry, am I not hungry too?" Aaron complained, and then he started to search in the kitchen.
But the two dwarves were extremely miserable. He searched the kitchen, even took out Captain Jack's compass, and finally only found a small bowl of rice and a few pieces of hard bread.
"After all, we are in the wild, so we have to make do with what we have, it can at least fill our stomachs."
