Traversed to the Ark of Tomorrow, but was a traveler

Chapter 41

In the evening, Xia Lan asked Minar, "Can you cook?"

"It will be a little bit." She responded, who was driving, but this time she had to pay without opening her mouth.

Xia Lan raised her head and glanced at the already drowsy sky, and said simply: "Then just stop at a random place, eat dinner and drive for a while, and then start to rest at eight o'clock."

"Received, boss." She replied, found an open area to stop the car, looked around, and then looked at Xia Lan who was making corrections.

Xia Lan raised his hand, and then the trunk of the car opened automatically. Without raising his head, he said, "Go to the trunk and get some ingredients to cook."

She heard the words and got out of the car, walked to the back of the car, and was shocked by the food, pots and pans that stuffed the entire trunk.

Finally, she understood why Xia Lan said that her bag could not fit in the trunk.

Because it's too full!
There are even wardrobes, refrigerators, cupboards!
"*Sarkaz foul language*! How can you be like traveling!" she scolded.

Even she brought at most half a month's worth of survival supplies, but Xia Lan's weight was definitely enough for the two of them to live together for more than a month.

"Almost, if I don't find the target in Iberia, I will go to Casimir and inquire about the target along the way." Xia Lan responded.

Minar, who was thinking about what ingredients to choose, raised her head and asked curiously, "So who are you looking for? You didn't explain it at the beginning."

"My wife." Xia Lan replied frankly, not ashamed.

"Your wife?!" Minar asked with a shocked expression, "Are you married?!"

Xia Lan was stunned for a moment, only to realize that she was used to speaking, so she changed her mind and said, "If you say that, then she should be my girlfriend, not an official wife."

"So it is." Minar nodded with a gossip face, some amazed and some envious.

Not only is he a super handsome guy in terms of appearance, but he is already a third-order magician at a young age.

"So, your girlfriend broke up with you?" Minar continued to ask.

She remembered Xia Lan's race, and couldn't help but speculate: "Are you Agor from the sea, and your girlfriend is also Agor?"

"Well." Xia Lan responded: "I only know a few clues, so I'm looking for it now."

"Oh~~~" Minar was stunned, and then showed an increasingly curious look, and asked, "Can you tell me the story of Agor?"

"No." Xia Lan replied, following the habit of the Agor people not to mention the ocean to the land people.

Hearing this, Minar exclaimed rather unhappily, "How come you, Agor, are all virtuous!"

Xia Lan raised his head helplessly, thought of an excuse and said, "If the people on the land know too much, Agor's armed forces will even come to liquidate those people on the land."

"Ah?!" Minar was startled, and immediately said, "Then don't tell me!"

"Hum~" Xia Lan chuckled lightly and continued to bury her head in calculating the blueprint.

He's done that, and construction is expected to start tonight.

……

After a while, Minal, who had cooked a pot of chowder, shouted, "Boss, the rice is ready!"

Xia Lan got out of the car with the tablet in her arms, subconsciously used magic to take a mouthful of soup from the pot, smashed it, smashed her mouth, met her strange eyes, and exclaimed, "It's delicious."

Minar felt that his spell ability was a little different from what he saw in the daytime, and he felt that something was wrong, but after thinking about it, he could only speculate that Xia Lan had a special talent.

She has not received a systematic spell education, so she does not have a clear concept of what is going on in this area.

At most, judge the danger level of the opponent from the output power.

Xia Lan didn't notice her suspicions, and continued to eat with her. After eating, she continued on the road, still driving.

……

When it was close to eight o'clock in the evening, Xia Lan put the tablet aside, finally stretched and relaxed, leaning on the side.

"Yo, boss, you're done." Minar greeted warmly.

"Why are you so enthusiastic all of a sudden?" Xia Lan asked with a look of surprise.

"Of course it's because you, boss, are handsome and kind. I'm just influenced by you..."

He listened, he couldn't hold back, he grinned in a fluttering manner, and then he said with a guarded face, "Fuck it!"

"Didn't you say that you are a mechanical graduate? I hope you can make a handy weapon for me, just the type of short knife."

"Of course, I will pay for it separately, as long as it's not too outrageous." Minar said with a sincere expression.

"Uh..." Xia Lan was stunned for a moment and asked, "What size and weight do you want, as well as additional spells, all of which can be counted, and I basically have formula materials and the like."

Minar's eyes lit up, and then he said: "The shape is the same as the short knife I used today. It's better to make a pair. The harder the material, the better... The overall weight of a single knife is preferably [-]. About kilograms."

She said, hesitated and asked, "If I want an additional cut-type spell, how much would you add?"

Xia Lan clicked his tongue, but he didn't know how much to calculate, because he didn't know the market in this regard.

So he hesitated for a while and said: "The top-level one is worth 30 yuan, and the most common one is only 1 yuan. Of course, this refers to the additional spells."

"As for the dagger itself... I'll charge you five times as much for the basic materials... I'll do the math first."

"A pair of knives is about thirty-two thousand."

Minar listened to his somewhat bewildered answer, and couldn't help but retreat, and the price seemed unreliable at first sight.

And how can anyone make equipment for people based on the multiplier of the material price...

"Well, can you show me that material?" she asked weakly.

"Okay." Xia Lan nodded, reached out and took out a dark-colored metal plate with a faint blue reflection from the trunk, and placed it in the passenger seat.

"Find a place to park, it's almost time," he said.

"Yes, boss."

They found a place to stop, Xia Lan placed a few Originium lamps around the car, and then watched Minar study the metal plate.

She pulled out a bag of tools from her bag and carefully scratched the metal plate, but unfortunately nothing could damage the metal plate.

She gradually began to look shocked.

This thing doesn't seem to be of the same order of magnitude as the material of her short knife. Its comprehensive strength seems to have reached [seven], while her knife is only [five.[-]].

Therefore, after asking Xia Lan's consent, she took her own knife and chopped for a while, but naturally her knife broke a series of gaps, but the metal plate remained perfect.

"Uh... Boss, are you really just an ordinary college student?" she confirmed suspiciously.

"It's absolutely true, I just prefer machinery, weapons and equipment, and materials." Xia Lan confirmed it seriously.

Minar stared at him for a long time, and finally said: "Then please, boss, I will choose the best plan!"

"Well." Xia Lan nodded, and cut several metal materials into the trunk, with a total mass of just [-] kilograms.

Then he started refining metal, and brought Minar's short knife along the way.

Its blade length is 35 centimeters, including the handle is more than [-] centimeters, the style is simple and simple straight back knife, very easy to handle.

The process of making the knife is quite fast, and it is even finished in less than half an hour...

However, because his material is denser, he tweaked it slightly to make it more aerodynamic.

Of course, in theory, cutting people is also more comfortable.

Minar took the warm knife handed by Xia Lan with a bewildered face, looked at him and looked at the knife with a look of disbelief.

"Professional Yan Guoxue tyrants are like this, don't believe it!" Xia Lan immediately fooled.

He also didn't know if Minal would believe it. If he believed it, he believed it. If he didn't believe it, he could only make up another excuse.

Anyway, today this ordinary person is pretending to be!
"Anyway, you should try it first before you take advantage of it. If you take advantage of it, I will help you to engrave spells." He urged.

"Oh." Her attention was indeed diverted by him, and her first reaction was to take out the metal sheet that Xia Lan had just given, and try to collide it.

But despite her numb fingers, neither side was injured.

Then she brought her old knife again, and with a ding, it was another huge gap.

Minal grinned excitedly, dancing around like a child who got a new toy.

Xia Lan looked quite amused, and it took a long time to get the two knives back from her hands and start arranging spell arrays.

Of course, he used the second-class but still valuable magic materials, so he kept his mind.

When everything was finished, it was already past nine o'clock in the evening.

He returned the two knives to Minar, and then taught her how to activate the enchantment, which she learned easily.

The same is true of cutting iron like mud.

She even released a rhetoric saying that she wanted to fight, and Xia Lan suddenly burst into laughter.

"There will be a chance for a fight," he said, quite sure.

……

A day later, after one o'clock in the afternoon, in a wilderness to the southeast of Longmen.

They originally planned to take the international highway, which was one of the trade routes between Syracuse and Longmen, but it took a detour halfway to a city in the south of Ursus.

Out of Xia Lan's plan that the sooner the better, Minaer chose not to go to Usas, and went directly to the second half of the road through the wasteland. There are still about 900 kilometers to reach the second half of the road.

And they will drive from this road all the way to the border of Syracuse, then round the Badlands, to the road south of Syracuse, and then to Rutland, all the way south to Iberia.

"We shouldn't be walking the wasteland," Minar said suddenly, and started to slow down gradually.

Xia Lan, who was in a drowsy state, raised his head when he heard the words, and looked at a convoy that was rushing around in front of him. At a glance, there were five or six cars, and it seemed that the situation was quite serious.

"Can you get rid of it?" he asked simply.

Minal shook his head and said, "Difficult, our car is at most an ordinary civilian vehicle. The other party has a professional military off-road vehicle, which can easily catch up with us on the wasteland."

"Then kill it." Xia Lan waved his hand and said, "You just happen to try your new weapon."

"Oh, you said it lightly." She reluctantly responded, then braked the car, put on her armor and rushed out.

Very dedicated.

Xia Lan looked at the convoy of the other party from a distance, and frowned slightly as she watched a car surround the figure of the woman in battle armor.

Among them, there is a figure with energy aura that is much more powerful than ordinary people, and it seems to have reached the level of a fourth-order magician.

To make matters worse, the other party is still an infected person.

One car in the circling convoy suddenly lost control and slammed into another car, throwing the entire convoy into violent chaos in an instant.

"Stand a little closer and watch." He got out of the car and walked slowly towards that direction, looking worried but scared at the same time.

……

Minar was standing on the roof of the out-of-control car, the short knife with a faint black blindness in his hand was stained with traces of blood.

It just cut off the protective net on the car's window in an instant and stabbed into the driver's neck.

One hit kill.

And now, the chaotic convoy began to stop chaotically, apparently realizing that this woman in battle armor is not simple.

Some people are holding swords, some people are holding bows and crossbows, and some people have a faint magic light on their bodies, and all the spearheads are directed at her alone.

No one shouted, no one hesitated, only the cold killing intent was brewing.

This land never eats people by weak words.

Minar suddenly noticed the masked man at the back of the team who was looking at him coldly, and immediately defined him as the most dangerous enemy who needed to be killed first.

"Boom!" The roof of the car was smashed by her huge force. Amid the sound of shattering glass, her figure disappeared in place, but it reappeared in mid-air, almost rushing into the crowd.

When she raised the knife in her hand, whether it was armor or flesh and blood, it was no different from the soil under her enchanted knife, and could not play any blocking role at all.

Out of a dozen people, three of them were headed by her in an instant, and the rest finally reacted, and all kinds of awkward attacks fell on her.

They are really just a bunch of rabble with no overall training, and they don't know how to become a bandit that looks like something.

When Mina was puzzled, she finally understood.

"Sun Shackles (Leitanian)."

A string of obscure incantations rang out in the crowd, and in an instant, a chain of light and flames appeared on her body. Although it couldn't erode her armor, it bound her to the ground.

Minar reacted in an instant, cut off the chain of fire, and burst into full force.

But the chain of fire began to emerge continuously from the ground, constantly wrapping around her legs.

And black rocks began to grow along those chains, immobilizing her legs completely within seconds.

She made a quick decision and threw her short knife at the magician with all her strength. It pierced the head of a ghost who was pulled over by the spell in the sharp sound, but it had already cut too much of the impact. The famous sorcerer escaped.

"Tsk." She clicked her tongue subconsciously, her heart sinking continuously.

According to the current situation... either the other party is the top genius in the third-order struggle artist, or the other party is...

Fourth-tier magician.

"Damn, why is there a fourth-order magician coming out to be a robber!" She scolded softly, already confirming the other party's rank.

Because that person is a weather-beaten middle-aged man, if he was a genius, he would have been promoted to the fourth rank.

Whenever the other party hesitated for a moment, he could not dodge her dagger, but he was unexpectedly heartless and straightforward.

"Friend... is it too much to kill our people when they come up?" The magician asked in a hoarse voice, but he couldn't hear the anger.

Sixteen people on the field had already been killed ten by Minar, but that person didn't even look at them, as if he was just looking at a bunch of garbage.

"Didn't you win?" Xia Lan poked her head out from behind a car and shouted with a look of "blame, disappointment, and annoyance in a panic".

As if to confirm the thoughts of the group of people, Xia Lan scolded as if breaking the defense: "I gave you so much money, why can't you even protect me! What's the use of asking you!!"

Minar's face wrinkled under his visor, obviously disgusted by his somewhat ugly face.

But the next moment, Xia Lan changed the conversation and asked in a panic (he even used magic to stimulate his emotions): "May I ask the gentlemen to raise your hand, I want to exchange money for her..."

Minar was moved, but Xia Lan said: "Of course, if the money is not enough, she will let you deal with it, I still want to redeem my life first..."

His words sounded very naive, as if he was implying that they wanted to kill him and then take his money.

"*Common language foul language*!" Minar scolded Xia Lan harshly, as if she was about to break with him completely.

"Hey, I want to save myself, what's wrong with me, you're my employee anyway, it doesn't matter if you die!" Xia Lan immediately retorted with a blushing face when she heard her abuse.

The magician looked quite amused, and even couldn't hold back, he raised the corners of his mouth, looked at the two who were about to tear them apart, and coughed: "How much money do you have?"

Xia Lan was taken aback for a moment, and then responded as if saved: "700 million Longmen coins! This is all my money! If you can let me go, I will give it to you!"

There was no more mention of Minar's existence in his words.

"Not enough, this money is only enough for yourself, and if your employees...have to exchange it for other things of value."

The other party licked the corner of his mouth, as if he was looking for something.

Xia Lan glanced at Minar who was staring at him, her face was blue and then red, and it took a long time to take off a jade pendant on her body, and asked, "Is the fourth-order spell-level protective jade pendant made by Master Yan Guo enough? replace her?"

The magician's eyes lit up when he heard the words, this thing seems to be a good thing.

So he said, "Come slowly and throw it to me when you reach ten meters."

Xia Lan did as she did, looking like she was at the mercy of others.

The magician looked at the jade pendant repeatedly and said with satisfaction: "This is fine, you can leave the money after you hand me the money. I will release this woman to you."

With a look of relief on Xia Lan's face, she trotted and paid the money, pulling Minar away.

He pulled the reluctant Minal to the side of the car, finally heaving a sigh of relief, then raised his head and glanced at the convoy that had begun to leave gradually, his expression suddenly softened.

"Thank you..." Minar said reluctantly after a long time, but her tone was rather cold.

There seemed to be an irreparable crack between her and him.

"Hum~" Xia Lan snorted softly, "Are you angry?"

"Huh?" She looked at Xia Lan with a comfortable face, but she couldn't find the slightest "unhappy, complaining, pity" on his face, and she fell into confusion.

And just when she was puzzled, Xia Lan started cleaning her armor with water, and she was at his mercy.

Suddenly there was a dull vibration under her feet, and she looked back suddenly, and saw the mushroom cloud rising a kilometer away.

It was in the direction the convoy was leaving.

When she looked back again, Yu Guang noticed that she had appeared in the car at some point and looted a pile of banknotes and a jade pendant on it.

It shone brilliantly in the sun, just as it had been in exchange for Minar.
