Chapter 172 Take the time to sell a cute one (Part 2)

"Hmph, Dow."

Throw away the broken arrow in his hand - it was an arrow that was shot on the Dwarf King's plate armor. Needless to say, the defense of the plate armor worn by the Dwarf King would not have been possible. If it weren't for the strong bow and hard crossbow, the arrow would not have been broken so neatly - Jamos snorted coldly, and the other two leaders' expressions were not very good.

Five corpses were lying on the ground. This was a standard patrol team. Originally, they saw that as vanguards, the Dwarf King and Rune Master, wanted to strike an ambush. Jamos and the others were also quite bad when they set up their formation. One dwarf King and two rune masters were thirty meters away from the large army. There was no one behind them in the cave. However, there was no need to worry. As a legendary profession, even if they encountered an ambush, they could withstand a set of ambush. And if there were only three people, it would be easy to lead to some hidden idiots, just like these five - but they didn't expect to kick a big iron plate. The first round of poisoned gold arrows did not play any role in the Dwarf King's plate armor. The rune master who could use the rune power was quite fast. Before the ambush could react, they rushed up. One man and two axes. At that time, there were four people who had settled the tent. The last one wanted to run, but a hammer flashing with lightning defeated his idea.

As for why the three leaders had this attitude towards the dark elves, in fact, most of the people present had the same attitude. After all, the dark elves have little reputation in the whole world. Moreover, it is not an exaggeration to say that they are a feud against dwarves and elves. Although there are a few good ones, such as Master Cui San, there are too few.

There were representatives of insidious and cunning. The dark elves appeared. The coalition immediately woke up and was very careful. This led to the passage of less than ten kilometers of underground passage for nearly two days, but the effect was not bad. Although it was attacked a lot, there were no casualties.

When the coalition forces entered the enemy's base, the real battle began. As a race, as one of the villains in this world, the strength of the dark elves is of course very powerful. The elusive bloody girl, the fierce and bloody lizard cavalry, the mighty and powerful tauren, and the matriarch who controls all this are all quite terrible opponents.

Like last time, Jack and Kalid did not play any role in real large-scale battles, so they became spectators again. Since there were few wars of such a scale, Kalid and his mood naturally rose and fell with the changes in the battle situation, but Jack was always thinking.

‘Dear, what’s wrong?’ Eureka asked with concern in her mind.

'I'm wondering what impact a different rule will have on a world.' Jack replied, 'If it's in a world where heroes are invincible, then there are not many creatures like dragons, but there are quite a lot of them. But if it's really Feren, unless it's a young dragon, any one of them will not necessarily be wiped out. At least the losses are serious. In this way...'

‘Or, because of the fusion of rules, the so-called ultimate army has also changed?’ Eureka guessed.

'This is not clear, after all, there is too little information.' Jack shook his head slightly, 'But the next goal has been found, then you will lose the candlestick. There must be everything we need, but we don't know what price we need to pay.'

"The price? It doesn't cost." After telling Jahira about his willingness to go to the candle castle, Jahira was stunned for a moment and continued: "Indeed, Jahira is a huge library. If you want to learn, it is indeed a very good choice. As for the price you mentioned, it does have, but I think it is not a problem for you. That's because the transaction method of Candle castle is to 'for knowledge exchange knowledge' and exchange knowledge that Candle castle does not have in exchange for existing Candle castle knowledge."

After a pause, Jahira continued, "Let us leave this matter. After this war, we will take you to Zhunbao. We happened to know Ge Li'an, the manager there. I believe he will be interested in you."

Jack nodded. He already understood what Jahira meant. In fact, until now, the battle has not happened to Jack and the other six. As I said just now, the role of this level of fighting and personal ability plays a very small role. This inaction also makes them feel bored. Anyway, they have completed the mission as messenger, so it is better to leave as soon as possible and start their own new adventures.

——Or if Jack and Eureka decide not to hide their strength, they can also influence the situation? But the problem is that Feiren is a world full of gods and Buddhas. Not to mention anything else, as an alien from other worlds, Heim will not let them go. It is better to be low-key without knowing the other party’s strength.

The three leaders had no problem with intelligence. After learning about their ideas, they did not try to keep them. They just gave a batch of weapons and equipment as farewell gifts. All of them were fine products, but Jack was sad again and got nothing - who said he was a monk?

There are two roads from Northland to Zhubao. One is the waterway, board the boat in Luscan, from the sea to the south to Bode Gate, then arrive at Zhubao by land, and the other is to take Miraba, and go south with the caravan along the long road, and go directly to Zhubao by land through the trade route.

The difference between these two roads is that one is faster and the other is slow. Walking at sea is relatively faster, but it is relatively more dangerous. Not to mention the pirates on the sea, Lu Scan is a huge pirate nest - of course, there are also robbers on land, but it is better than being unable to escape from sea.

Due to sufficient time, Jack and others chose the second road. After another three days of journey, they arrived at Miraba, one of the two most famous trading cities in the north, Luscan. However, it was too chaotic. Only the most bold and arrogant dared to go there, but if it succeeded, it would be a huge profit.

Since it is not the season for shipments in the North, Miraba looks a little deserted. Jahira and others who have experienced it have described the prosperous scene of the early summer month (June) to Jack. Jack was a little interested in this, but it was not enough to make everyone wait until that time.

I just found a small caravan that came here to try my luck, and Jack and others began to go south. To be honest, the whole world is actually in a huge cycle, but every time point may be the beginning and every time point may be the end. Take the present for example. Since it is not a season of active trade, there are even a lot of fewer robbers on the road. Those larger robber gangs are enjoying the "harvest" of the previous period in their nests and preparing for the "work" of the future - if they can still survive until that time and continue to live.

Along the way, Jack and the others changed several caravans - the small caravan did not have the ability to walk from Miraba to the Baldur Gate. The big caravan is not the time for them to go out. After more than a month of the world, they finally came to the Baldur Gate. However, no one of them wanted to enter the city, so they came directly to the candle castle.

As Jahira said, they were really familiar with this place. They easily opened the gate of this veritable castle and easily met the manager they spoke, a human old man with white hair and beard and completely in line with the images of "sage" and "wise".

"Ah, Ge Li'an, it's been a long time since we met his old friend, Jahira's voice was filled with joy, "But when did you get married? And when did you have these two little guys? Why don't you notify us?"

Jahira refers to Ge Li's side, looking at their two children with curious eyes, with the same brown hair, same brown eyes, and similar appearance, which made them guess that they should be a brother and sister. Jahira seems a bit rude when she stands up, but it is normal for their relationship. Although Ge Li's already a human elder in his sixties or seventies, Jahira is nearly 200 years old, and there is no comparison between the two races at least in terms of age.

"This is my adopted son Chanem and my adopted daughter Aimun." Ge Li comforted the heads of the two children and said with a kind smile.

Seeing that Ge Li'an didn't seem to want to say much, Jahira, as a friend, didn't ask more questions, and directly told Jack and the others about the situation.

"That's it..." Hearing Jahira's words, Ge Li'an pondered for a moment and continued: "If you want to enter the candle castle to study, it's absolutely fine, but the candle castle also has its own rules, and use new knowledge to exchange old knowledge. Needless to say, each visitor can stay for ten days at a time in the candle castle, and can't enter again within one month."

"Sorry, I would like to ask, does this 'can't enter anymore' range refer to the castle or a certain area?" Jack asked.

"It's just inside the castle." Ge Li'an replied, with a clear smile in his eyes.

"In this case, can my wife and I borrow a piece of land around us and live in a house?" Jack asked again.

"The surrounding land does not belong to us, but I want to make it clear that the wilderness is not safe." Ge Li'an reminded with a serious expression.

"Please rest assured about this." Jack nodded with a smile.

Just in just a few words, the matter was determined. Everyone was very happy. Jia Xila and the others were happy that they helped them, and Jack and the others were happy that they finally had a stable research space. Ge Li'an was happy that they had new knowledge, or that knowledge that did not belong to this world could enrich the candlestick.

In fact, the key to the reason why Ge Lian could agree to Jack's request was Jack's identity. Jack's request can be said to have exploited the loopholes in the candlestick system. There is no shortage of smart people in this world. Isn't anyone discovering such a big loophole? Of course not. People who can live in the wilderness around Candlestick, face beasts, goblins, robbers and other dangerous and stable people rarely have the power behind it. Candlestick certainly cannot allow such people to establish strongholds around them, but Jack and Eureka are not. They are really helpless and have trustworthy recommenders - of course, the above all require time to verify, but Jack's attitude has already expressed that he does not mind Candlestick conducting limited surveillance.
