Chapter 147 Archers Need Strong Muscles

Luke didn't know the origin of the elves, but this proud tribe in the fantasy world has appeared in countless works.

"Dungeons & Dragons", "Baldur's Gate", "Warcraft", "Heroes of Might and Magic", "Warhammer", "Lord of the Rings", etc., all have active elves, and even the race itself has evolved into various ethnic groups like human races.

The female elf "Lucia" with a high ponytail in front of Luke is one of the high elves.

However, Lucia obviously does not have the various stereotypes such as "arrogance", "discrimination", "stubbornness" and "stubbornness" that are common in many game settings of high elves. Instead, she gave Luke a first impression like meeting a cheerful and a little reckless orc.

Well, Luke's delusion about orcs is actually a stereotype.

After Luke took the initiative to talk to him and revealed some key information about the swaying eel, the woman who was unknown how old she was grabbed Luke's hand and said that she would buy Luke a drink and chat about the specific matters about the swaying eel.

The ninja siblings looked at each other and chose to follow.

In the current situation where Viper is temporarily absent, the two of them naturally put themselves in the position of guards. It can only be said that it is all due to occupational diseases.

But Luke, who was dragged away, keenly noticed a problem.

That is, the strength of this woman holding his wrist is completely irresistible.

Luke, whose strength attribute has 60 points, tried to turn his wrist, but he couldn't turn it at all, as if it was clamped by some iron pliers.

When he found this situation, Luke couldn't help but secretly observe the body curve of the elf woman.

Although covered by a cloak and full-body clothing, the width of this woman's forearms, shoulders and thighs is obviously not as slender as an "elf", and there is a beauty of eating protein powder every day.

It is a strong female elf!

...

In the corner of the Starry Tavern.

"It's not easy to get a living and healthy flicker eel."

At this moment, the female elf, who showed her dwarf-like boldness, gulped down the Starry Beer brewed locally in the Starry Base. She sighed to Luke beside her without even wiping the foam on her mouth.

And her sitting posture with legs wide apart made Feng's eyelids jump as she sipped hot juice at the same table.

As a ninja profession that pays the most attention to perception, Feng and Hayate will not allow alcohol to erode and paralyze their senses and nerves.

"I have some idea about this. As long as we can find the tribe of flicker eels, it shouldn't be difficult to catch them."

Luke said confidently, thinking of his mercenary Viper.

"Oh? So confident? It just so happens that I can't get away because my research here is not yet completed. If you can really help me get 10 healthy and lively wiggling eels, I can get you something good."

After drinking a beer cup, the elf girl began to chew dried cuttlefish slices and said with interest.

Looking at the things on the table, elf finger biscuits with giant bee honey, dried tentacle slices of cuttlefish, Kentaro's air-dried meat strips, and dried salt and pepper Magikarp scales... This is definitely a good snack for uncles!

Luke's cheeks began to hurt when he saw these things.

By the way, aren't elves vegetarians?

"But..." Before Luke could directly agree to this matter, the elf girl Lucia spoke again. "You are still a little short of hard power. If you can show any special abilities, it's not impossible to make an exception and tell you the location."

When Luke heard the elf girl say this, he immediately remembered the task description of [Bodily and Mind Are Wiggling Eels] that he needed to reach level 11.

But it seems that the missions in the real side quests are very free, not all of them are rigidly stipulated, but can be adjusted flexibly.

"Um, what abilities are considered special abilities?"

The elf girl gave in, but Luke didn't quite understand what the criteria for judging these special abilities were.

"When facing a strong enemy, it's enough to be able to save your life, or to be able to kill the opponent at a faster speed and at a lower cost."

The elf girl said with a hint of meaning.

But then, the elf girl's pupils suddenly shrank, because he saw Luke actually took out a shrunken human head from behind his buttocks.

The elf girl Lucia is a "jungle guardian" who uses the body of a high elf to do the work of wood elves. She likes to travel around the world to study various unknown ecosystems. Because she is a lone traveler and always likes to buy things randomly, Lucia, who is always short of money, will take on some high-value wanted bounty missions wherever she goes.

On the one hand, the money is high, and on the other hand, it takes less time, so it doesn't delay her from continuing her job.

Over time, it became Lucia's daily routine to look at the wanted posters every time she arrived at a new place. With a good memory, Lucia remembered many faces of demonized heroes, some ferocious and some ordinary.

Coincidentally, the embalmed head in Luke's hand still had a considerable degree of facial features, and in Lucia's memory, there was indeed such a demonized former C-level hero.

But the distorted face that was always roaming around and shouting that no one could catch him had been permanently solidified.

... Could this kid be a necromancer or something like that?

Although she is also a forest guardian who worships nature, Lucia, who is not as extreme as the druids and tree shepherds, began to mutter in her heart.

"Uh, should we go to the training ground?"

Luke asked for advice.

"As long as it is not a destructive skill, just use it on me."

Lucia said confidently.

Then a terrifying feeling that made her hair stand up suddenly spread all over her body instantly.

If she hadn't known in advance that this was Luke's ability, she would have probably pulled out an arrow and stabbed it hard into Luke's brain.

"Friend, do you mind telling me what ability it is?"

After about six or seven seconds, Lucia, who realized that the debuff on her body had dissipated, asked Luke with a serious face.

Luke even noticed that the elf girl's name for him had changed.

"A curse that doubles the physical damage received by the cursed."

"...How far is the casting distance?"

"I haven't tried the maximum distance, but it should be more than ten meters."

After hearing Luke's answer, the elf Lucia was silent for a while, picked up a bottle of Star Beer that had just been served, drank it all, and then stood up from her seat.

"I changed my mind."

"Now I formally invite you to help me hunt a wild monster leader that has disrupted the normal ecology. You only need to help cast the curse from a distance. Just tell me what reward you need. Let's go directly to the guild task contract, how about it?"

As the elf Lucia's voice fell, Luke's task panel changed.

[You triggered a new reality side quest-the greedy predator from the depths of the canyon. 】

The greedy predator in the depths of the canyon?

... Could it be a savage claw dragon?
