Chapter 251 The arrival of the Paladins
Fast forward a little, floating island, ground.

Isabella looked at Wang suspiciously: "Have you found the beholder?"

Wang: "No, it is speculated that there is a large-scale beholder community... It is not accurate to say that the beholder community is the most hated creature of the beholder, so the beholder does not live in groups. The so-called beholder community refers to A group of allied beholders control a large area of ​​land, and each beholder has a territory ranging from dozens to a hundred square kilometers."

Flint had obviously seen the beholder before, and he cursed: "Kailin's horns! What kind of hell on earth is this?"

Elizabeth looked at the dwarf with a scared look on her face: "Is the beholder so scary?"

Marika: "Don't scare our princess. I have killed beholders before."

Elizabeth immediately raised hopes: "Have you ever had a one-on-one challenge?"

Marika hesitated for a moment, but chose to tell the truth: "No, we entered a team, and I was the only one left in the end, so the credit goes to me."

Elizabeth immediately looked back at Wang: "Do you really want me to kill something like that alone?"

Wang scratched his head: "Actually, not really. Although it's good to improve the combat effectiveness, it doesn't matter if it doesn't improve. Look, we've been taking risks for several months and we've made it through."

Elizabeth's expression became complicated, as if the two thoughts of "reluctance" and "want to play a greater role" were thrown into a blender and stirred hard.

Finally, Elizabeth decided: "Okay, after I find the beholder's lair, I will go in and challenge it!"

Wang: "No, you can't go in alone."

"Eh? Why?"

Flint answered on his behalf: "Because beholders, like mind flayers, can raise slaves. Each beholder's lair has a bunch of beholder slaves. We have to kill these people to open a way for you."

Wang added: "We also need to set up the ceremony site. Or can you set it up yourself?"

Elizabeth bit her lip: "No."

Marika asked, "So where is this beholder colony?"

Wang: "In Yi Songzuo, downstream, where we are going. The Austrian Law Federation has installed a large number of anti-death barrier headbands and rings to resist petrification at Yi Songzuo's stronghold, which shows that Yi Songzuo may be useful. The place where these two props are located. I guess they are beholders.”

Marika: "That's just speculation. It could also be the Mind Flayer!"

Wang: "The mind flayer doesn't need to prepare anything to prevent instant death. Instead, it has to be especially careful about its mind control."

Marika was still unconvinced: "If there is such a large-scale beholder settlement, there won't be no information at all. After all, beholders are not masters of covering up their traces like mind flayers."

Flint shook his head: "No, no, don't underestimate beholders. Their psychic abilities are equally powerful. But I'm also very surprised. I haven't heard of a large beholder settlement for a long time. The last time I saw a beholder, it was a beholder." Wandering Beholder.”

Elizabeth: "Wandering beholder?"

Wang: "Beholders have a very high mutation rate. Little beholders have a high probability of turning into ugly mutants, and beholders are...a perfectionist race.

"So when the mother beholder discovers that its child is a 'defective', it will crush it to death. If the child is lucky enough to resist the mother's petrification ray and mind control and escape, it will become a wandering beholder.

"Most of the people you will encounter when adventuring in ruins are this kind of beholder."

Elizabeth: "Then can we find one of these beholders to complete the necklace ritual? Since there are such a large group of allied beholders, there will always be one or two wandering beholders, right?"

Wang: "Probably. In addition, beholders have another characteristic. They... they love beauty, and their taste is not bad. Although their appearance is ugly by human standards.

"The strange thing is that the beholder seems to think that beautiful human girls are beautiful, so it likes to petrify beautiful human girls and store them in its lair."

Elizabeth gasped and subconsciously covered her chest with her hands.

When Rosalie saw this, she quickly acted like she was scared.

The king didn't notice Rosalie's little act of resistance at all. He continued to say to Elizabeth: "In order for you to fight the beholder smoothly, we will continue to collect equipment for you. If you can find the dwarf's beholder nemesis shield, , you can even reflect the beholder's own petrification light or death ray back to easily complete a solo kill.

"Also, you can wear this robe when you explore or fight in the future."

Elizabeth: "Okay. But why, what is this robe?"

Wang: "The standard robe of the Arcane Federation can protect against slashing and puncture damage. Although it is not as good as Nini's maid outfit modified from the witch's robe, it is not bad."

Elizabeth looked at the robe, then at Nini, and said, "I also want to change it into a maid uniform..."

Wang: "Then...it's not far from Monrovia anyway. It's okay to let Xiaobai fly back and make changes."

After that, he took out another robe from the dimensional bag: "Rosalie, do you want to change this one too?"

"Eh? Me too?" Rosalie was shocked, "Uh, I don't want to change it. I think this protection range is relatively large, and I am more afraid of death. Miss Nini is very flexible and can dodge attacks, but I can't dodge them. .”

Wang nodded, and just as he was about to continue speaking, Elizabeth said, "I won't change it, and I can't get away from it!"

Wang looked at her: "Whether you want to change it or not, let me know for sure."

Elizabeth glanced at Rosalie and shouted firmly: "I won't change!"

Wang: "Okay."

Rosalie smiled and said: "I know how to add clothes to the girls I care about. Our captain has finally made progress in this area. It is mainly due to my contribution~"

At this time, the king took out the third robe and said to Granny Hasir, who had been beside him: "This one is for you, Granny."

Hashir was shocked: "Give it to me? Just give it to the ladies and that's it."

Wang: "No, this is not giving gifts, it is distributing equipment. Mother-in-law, if something happens to you, you will be in big trouble. No one can lead the Pelican Gang except you now. And we need the Pelican Gang to maintain order and work ability. .”

Hashir: "Oh, that's what I mean. I'm scared, I thought you were attracted to me, an old woman. Okay, my chainmail armor happened to be broken in the last battle, so I need to replace it."

This time it was Wang's turn to be shocked: "The chain armor is rotten? You didn't tell me!"

"Oh, it's a small problem, so I won't tell the Lord of the City."

Wang: "Wait a minute, we got a lot of chain mail and leather armor in Monrovia, let's give you one!"

As he spoke, he took out a shiny chainmail armor from his dimensional bag and handed it to Granny Hasil.

The mother-in-law was so happy that her mouth blossomed: "Oh, this is good stuff."

Rosalie said: "Of course, can the things taken from my family's treasure house be bad?"

The king took out a few more pieces of armor, then hesitated and took them back.

Xiaobai asked strangely: "What are you doing?"

Wang: "I originally wanted to give the remaining armor to the Pelican Gang, but after thinking about it, I decided to wait until we recruit a warrior with strong combat effectiveness before giving him the armor."

Flint: "You mean the warriors recruited into the team? Hey, don't worry, the armor on the warriors who often go into the dungeon must be some kind of magic armor. It's much better than ordinary armor. In this way, you combine non-magical equipment with Take out the armor and distribute it to the cadres of the Pelican Gang. After all, they are also Granny Hasil’s right-hand men.”

Before the dwarf finished speaking, the king took out several other standard robes of the Arcane Federation.

Flint: "Kaelin's belly button, how much did you take?" Wang: "I told you that my team destroyed a team from the Arcane Federation."

As he spoke, he poured out a bunch of magic rings from the dimensional bag: "These are all captured magic rings. There are various first- and second-level spells, as well as some passive effects that are better than nothing. Take your pick, and the rest They were all given to the vigilante group."

There was a small note on the ring, with the effect written on it. This was Wang's preparation for sending it to the vigilante group.

Oscar's eyes widened when he saw so many magic rings: "Do you really want to send them to our vigilante group?"

Wang: "Of course, and the vigilante group here also includes people from the Pelican Gang."

Oscar immediately pouted: "The people from the Pelican Gang disobey me. When I teach them swordsmanship, they all say that they don't want to learn hard because they only use their skills and skills."

Wang: "Then you challenge the jumpiest one among them and beat him seriously with a training sword. Anyway, with Flint watching, no one will die."

Oscar: "Is this...is this too much?"

Old Mrs. Hasier: "That's how they will obey you. This is more effective than me ordering them, do you understand? My little princess!"

At this time, Elizabeth had already chosen the ring: "I will choose this scorching ray..."

Wang took the ring right back from her hand.

Elizabeth exclaimed: "What?"

Wang: "Don't choose the scorching ray! You are already very good at shooting rays. You take so many rays a day, and the necklace stuffed in your chest also has enough times. This scorching ray should be given to the vigilante group, which can effectively strengthen it." Their power.”

Elizabeth pouted: "Oh."

Wang sighed and picked up another ring: "You can use this mirror shadow technique to enhance your ability to save your life."

Elizabeth: "Let's give it to the vigilante group. It can enhance their power. I'm just an insignificant ray emitter."

Wang looked at Rosalie with pleading eyes.

Rosalie smiled and said: "It's cute to be awkward like this, isn't it?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Elizabeth took away the mirror shadow ring from Wang's hand: "I want it!"

Wang: "I didn't say I wouldn't give it to you either? What's going on?"

Rosalie: "You really don't know how to coax girls. Without a girl to follow you, you will definitely die alone."

Wang: "Then I'll make do with you and it'll be over."

Rosalie looked like she had been hurt a lot.

Flint: "Kaelin's horns, I just like seeing this. In a funny sense, our captain is a genius."

Rosalie: "Okay, okay, by the way, can I also get this ring? After all... As the housekeeper of the floating island, I will be in a lot of trouble even if I die, right? I'll just use this mirror shadow technique. Well, it can save my life. I am not doing this to fight against someone."

Wang: "Okay. Where are the others? Have you finished choosing?"

Nini: "I don't have anything to take."

Xiaobai: "Same as above."

Marika: "I have a few props that have been with me since the adventure days. I really don't like these low-quality rings."

Liguang: "A monk does not need such external things."

Wang looked at the last team member: "Manzi, what about you?"

Manzi: "The art of becoming a giant."

As he spoke, he showed off the ring he had already obtained.

Wang: "Okay! Then give the rest of the rings to the vigilante group. Grandma Hasil, you and Rosalie will hold a meeting together and reward these things in public to those who have made meritorious service in the previous battles."

Hahir shook his head: "Forget it, it was easy to say when it first happened, but now they have boasted their performance in the last battle into a legendary adventure in the tavern, and now everyone thinks they are the mainstay.

"It's too late for you to reward based on merit now! Just give the equipment to a few loyal backbones this time, and reward based on merit next time."

Oscar retorted loudly: "How can this be? It seems like he is favoring his direct descendants."

Hashir: "You are right. But I guarantee that these cadres of mine are not cowards. Once the things are in their hands, they will perform as they should."

Oscar was about to argue when Rosalie gently pressed her shoulders and turned to look at Wang.

Wang: "You can do this this time, but you must add a clause in the regulations. These equipments are the property of Floating City and are only distributed for personal use. If it is found that these equipments are used for evil and harming the interests of Floating City, they will be killed without mercy. .”

Although Oscar still frowned, he still nodded and said: "Okay, this is a little better. By the way, let me add one more thing. From now on, this kind of standard equipment will be rewarded based on merit!"

Wang gave a thumbs up: "No problem, just add this one."

Hashir sighed: "The members of the Pelican Gang have all lived in Qianshui City since they were young. They have never experienced living in a legal society. Now they are still in awe of the new city lord, but in the future they will definitely There will be a lot of people trying to cross the line of the law."

As she spoke, she looked at Rosalie: "Managing thousands of people is more complicated than you think, little girl."

Rosalie: "I'm not a little girl anymore."

She glanced at Wang when she said this.

Then she continued: "Don't worry, mother-in-law, I will manage everything. After all, this is what I learned in the palace."

Hashir: "If the teachers in the palace were so omnipotent, the word dandy would not have appeared. Let me see what you are capable of."

At this moment, the sound of a gong came from the direction of the watchtower.

Everyone looked in the direction of the watchtower.

This was something that was just completed this morning. The craftsmen of the Pelican Gang used chopped masts to build a watchtower. This thing kept swaying from side to side in the high-altitude wind, but it did not fall down.

The people on the watchtower were shouting something, but the king couldn't hear him.

Nini's pointed ears turned completely towards the direction of the sentry tower, and she reported: "There is an airship approaching due to the south."

She paused and added: "There is Lancelot's Holy Emblem on the airship."

King: "It's probably Lancelot's paladin group, probably here to destroy the lich..."

He suddenly realized the seriousness of the problem and looked at Marika: "Damn it, Lancelot's paladin will kill the drow when he sees it!"

　I was so sleepy this morning that I forgot to write about the ring that resists petrification in the last chapter. I just made up for it.
