Chapter 198 It's Just a Few Hundred Gold Coins, Why Risk Your Life!

"This is really risking your life!"

After experiencing an ultimate release that almost cost him his life, Carl's voice trembled as he accepted Hope's treatment.

Shadow's condition is not much better than him, so at this time Karl is also using healing spells to treat her.

The three of them lined up in a row, treating the person in front of them one by one, just like what is described in martial arts novels.

"Fortunately, this evil ritual only consumes your vitality. If your physical condition is also reduced, you won't have anywhere to cry!"

Seeing Karl finish releasing the spell, Hope slapped Karl on the back of the head.

This was the first time she dealt a heavy blow to Karl, and Karl was directly pressed against Ying's body.

"Ahaha, I'm sorry, I won't do this again."

Amid Ying's cooing cry, Karl got up again and started beating Hope.

Then, he stopped smiling and analyzed with a serious expression:

"Now it seems that the seemingly meaningless first line may actually point to some kind of existence, and then it will be used by him to convert the volunteer's vitality into the spiritual energy of the other party."

Voluntary, yes, in this ceremony, the victims were judged to be voluntary.

This seems to involve ritual knowledge and mysticism, which Karl doesn't know much about.

But he figured out why those lines inspired "color".

Because I am afraid that only in this case, the "victim" will be eager to give voluntarily.

And the situation is roughly as Karl guessed.

Although part of Ying's vitality has also been converted into Karl's spiritual nourishment, the difference between the two is huge, and Ying's benefit is obviously higher than Karl's.

Even though she lost her mind far more times than Karl during the whole process.

"Let's seal these things up for now, or should we notify the local..."

He was about to use the official power of Storm Bay, but in the middle of his words, Ying stopped himself.

The official organization formed by the pirates in the Council of Storms has shown restraint in not bullying the good. Let them investigate this matter. I am afraid that all of them will soon become the nourishment of the drow.

The dragon-marked families will probably be on guard against this, but judging from the experiences of Bain and Scorpion in the past few years, they don't care much about the lives of the people at the bottom.

Bain did work as a guard for two years after listening to the advice given by Karl, and the Dragon Mark family did help him handle the matter.

But the experience of those two years was really tiring. Bain had to go out with the dragon crystal collecting team every day. For two years, he didn't have a day off.

If Xie hadn't revealed his identity as a drow and used the drow's information to become an intelligence agent in the "Tavern", Bain would have been exhausted.

Using magic tricks to clean up his and Ying's bodies, the two put on their clothes and walked out of the bedroom.

Scorpion and Bain seemed to have finished their relationship a long time ago. The two were sitting side by side on the sofa. Bain's eyes were slightly dull.

Seeing the three people coming out, Xie said worriedly: "This thing can't be used anymore."

After saying that, she turned to look at her husband and touched his face distressedly.

Bain was now much thinner than before, and even the muscles on his body seemed to be smaller.

"Of course, and I will also write to my teacher and ask him to help investigate whether the drow on Khorvaire have also mastered this ritual."

After comforting Bain, Karl went back to preparing medicinal meals.

In the next few days, Carl and his team recuperated their energy and prepared to visit the Xen'drik adventure area three times in a while.

They can't take care of the Drow and the Hehuan Ceremony for the time being, so they can only try to help the arrested people when they encounter them.

However, in the eyes of the captured rookie adventurers, Carl and the others might just be meddling in their own business.

…

It took longer than expected to recuperate, and after a week, Bain finally fully recovered.

In order to prevent the embarrassment of being unable to use large-scale power armor in narrow terrain last time, Karl increased the volume of the Moon Spirit Marrow Liquid in his body and re-activated the Tiga-type power armor in a targeted manner.

Once the light Moon Spirit armor is exhausted in combat, he will directly mobilize more Moon Spirit Marrow fluid and transform it into a Tiga type power armor.

All in all, this exploration focuses on lightweighting.

Like the previous two explorations, Carl's team headed to the adventure area from the cave on the west side.

However, what surprised them was that as soon as they jumped to the area, they ran into the other teams.

"Ha! Originally, this little dragon crystal wasn't enough, but now another group of people has arrived. How about it? Do you want to join forces to deal with them first?"

Not far in front of Karl and the others, two teams of people were confronting each other around a growth area of ​​Eberron Dragon Crystal. Seeing Karl and the others arriving, the leader of the team on the left gave a grim smile and gave advice to the enemy on the opposite side.

But before the boss of the other team could reply, Karl spoke first.

"Is this Xen'drik's gangsterism?

Those dragon crystals look like they can be sold for at least a thousand gold coins, but with the number of people on both sides, even if one side wins, each person can only get a maximum of 400 gold coins.

In this case, it is still divided equally. The leader will get the big share, and the remaining captains and squad captains will get a piece of the pie. In the end, those who really fight hard may not even have one or two hundred gold coins.

If an ordinary adventure team hunts a few more beasts, the better pelts may cost more than ten gold coins.

He even risked his life, but in the end he earned less than what others would earn from two ordinary hunts. "

The voice with a bit of ridicule miraculously resounded throughout the entire open space, and the younger brothers who were originally holding weapons to confront each other were immediately shaken by Karl's crickets.

In fact, what Carl said was quite flawed. It would be difficult for an ordinary hunting team to harvest furs worth more than ten gold coins each. Those would have to be furs that could only be possessed by beasts of at least level 8.

And even if you can hunt it, you won't encounter it every time. The adventure environment here in Xen'drik depends too much on luck.

However, if you say this before the battle, those who are already on the verge of death will naturally hesitate.

Everyone comes to Xen'drik to make a fortune, so why do they have to fight to the death if they don't agree with each other?

Do you deserve to be so desperate for a few hundred gold coins?

This little money is not enough to go to the priest for a resurrection!

In just a moment, the weapons in the hands of both sides began to drop towards the ground.

The two leaders looked at it and wondered, How could this work?

But at this time, if you order your subordinates to consume the opponent first, they may be counterattacked by these guys whose mentality has been shaken.

As a result, the two leaders cursed Karl in their hearts, and then attacked him together.

"Hmph! Good time!"

With a sneer, Karl took out a giant machete from his dimensional bag, and then rushed forward with the knife.

When the attack of the two leaders was about to come, Karl held the sword in front of him as if he had no idea.

"Ding dong" twice.

The broad blade of the broadsword and the 19 points of power brought by the Moon Spirit Armor perfectly blocked the attacks of the two warrior leaders of the Combat Master sub-professional class.

With a "Woo" sound, Karl turned the blade and assumed a horizontal slashing posture.

The minds of the two warrior leaders buzzed, and they immediately realized that the enemy might not be the small character they originally thought.

However, before they could use their three words of apology, Karl's attack had already begun.

The medium-sized 19-point power wielded a broadsword and swept towards the waists of the two warriors.

Not caring about anything else, the two of them rolled away one after the other.

The one behind wanted to stay away from Karl, but the one forward had the intention of getting close to Karl and then making a desperate counterattack.

But he was thinking blindly.

Almost at the same time that he launched the wave of movements to prepare for a sneak attack behind Karl, Karl also activated the wave of movements and put the big knife in his hand in front of him again.

The opponent's set of silky small combos all hit the sword, and the force of the shock even made his hand unable to hold the weapon steady.

He was about to retreat and dodge, but the big knife in Karl's hand had been shot out directly.

Shoot horizontally, pick up, and then chop down vertically.

In just a few seconds, Karl demonstrated to everyone the standard use of giant weapons.

"Hey! Why are you retreating so far? Don't you want the dragon crystal?"

He shouted at the leader who retreated far away, and the big knife in Karl's hand was suddenly thrown away by him.

The huge blade flew straight towards the warrior leader, scaring the other party into resorting to the seemingly omnipotent rolling technique again.

But at this moment, the warrior leader suddenly felt that his movements became a little stiffer.

In the corner of his vision, a blue freezing ray hit his body.

Then, he felt a sudden spin, and his vision dimmed.

"It feels like you've made great progress in using giant weapons recently."

Behind, Bain and others arrived belatedly.

Pulling out the big knife that was stuck in the ground, Karl walked to the dragon crystal bush and took a third of the share.

"Okay, maybe it's a family background? My father is pretty good at this."

After being humble to Bain, Karl turned his head and looked at the younger brothers who were standing still.

"You guys should divide the rest among yourselves. Really, can't you just think about resolving the problem peacefully? Just these two three-legged cats are trying to imitate others and take advantage of others. I don't know what it means!"

Carrying a big sword, Karl returned to the team with one third of the dragon crystal, and then rode away on motorcycles with his companions.

The remaining two parties looked at each other, then consciously distributed the remaining dragon crystals themselves, and then each left the area with the remaining half.

On the ground, the corpses of the two original leaders of the adventure group were looking at the sky blankly, as if they were regretting why they were wasting their time, only to have this troublesome guy wait for them.

If I had known this, it would be better for the two of them to share half of it each.

At least that way, their lives are still alive and their subordinates are still obedient.

It's a pity that not only have they lost their lives now, but the group of boys under them have no intention of resurrecting them, and they all left.

The breeze blew the surrounding trees, making a rustling sound.

I don’t know how much time passed, but a huge boulder suddenly burst into light.

A middle-aged man wearing animal skins walked out of the stone and frowned when he saw the crime scene with only two corpses.

"I thought I could keep some more experimental subjects, but now... forget it, two can be used. As for the experimental subjects that left... I can only wait a while to go to Storm Bay to see the effect."

After that, the middle-aged man took out two seeds from his animal skin clothes and planted them between the two corpses.
