The epic story of green monsters

Chapter 265 The Old Man
  "Hello Grandpa Ferok!!"

Eileen politely greeted the old goblin Ferok, who was aging and his health was deteriorating. She walked gently to the old man's side, pretending to rely on him but actually supporting him. She slowly walked slowly in the large garden belonging to the Oak Merchant Group behind the dark alley. Walk slowly.

"Irene, please be good. Where is that girl Kerr?"

Ten years have left deep traces on Ferok. Although the old man walked slowly but steadily, he now has to use a slender crutch when going out to the garden. When he saw Eileen coming to say hello to him, the old man's wrinkled cheeks suddenly became radiant, and even his cloudy eyes became full of energy. It seemed that he was always taking care of his daily life. The middle-aged dwarf female is even a little jealous of the young Erin.

Allen has never forgotten his promise to the old man. Every time Kerr and Eileen came to Thornburg, he told the two little girls to come to the old man Ferok to say hello and give him some souvenirs from the wilderness. Even the new generation of the village, such as Shisheng, Shusheng and Bush, were brought here to say hello to the old man Ferok.

However, only the two girls Irene and Kerr were the most popular with the old man, and the old man would be happy for several days just by seeing them.

Of course, Allen's efforts are not unrewarded. Two of the shops operated by his tribe in the four districts of Thornburg are owned by old man Ferok, and the remaining two are also rented through the old man's relationship. The rent is very high. It's affordable. After all, Castle of Thorns is also a prosperous border city. The caravans that came from afar moved to two places, and they were much richer than the Green Field Tribe. The harvest from one trip to long-distance trade was probably as long as the Green Field Tribe took several years. Profits that cannot be earned without eating or drinking.

Many caravans also want to have a stable foothold in Thornburg, and at the same time, they can sell or purchase the caravan's goods. This is a long-term and stable source of profit. As long as the host chooses correctly, he will basically not lose money. Therefore, the property of Thorn Castle has always been very valuable, and there are many people pursuing it. However, the Green Tribe, a wilderness tribe with neither strength nor background, has benefited from the glory of Old Man Feilok and Master Oscar. .

Being able to be the chief appraiser of a large chamber of commerce like the Oak Merchant Group in Castle Thorn, Old Man Ferok's abilities and skills are naturally second to none. Unfortunately, his early experiences made him lose the ability to have children, so he has no children now. The only descendants who can inherit his wealth are only a dozen of the dwarf apprentices he has adopted and trained over the years.

The teacher is very good, but unfortunately the apprentice is not very good. The dwarf's talent and intelligence are not bad, but there are very few people who are as outstanding as Ferroc in identifying, and the dozen or so apprentices that Ferroc has adopted are also He failed to inherit his teacher's talent and now mostly works in middle-level jobs in business groups.

"Sister Kerr went to the Oak Temple to challenge Falon. She said that after she finished the challenge, she would come to say hello to Grandpa."

Eileen obediently helped the old man walk in the garden, and responded to the old man's questions in a gentle voice.

"Hey, this girl only knows how to fight and kill every day. She doesn't look like a girl at all!!"

The old man Ferok laughed and cursed, but the smile on his face was still bright, and he was not at all annoyed because Kerr had gone to fight and delayed coming to see him.

"Same for you. If you were half as tempered as your sister Kerr, I wouldn't worry about you going out and going out in the future and suffering a loss!"

After talking about Kerr, the old man turned around and started talking about Irene again. Irene has been very mild-tempered since she was a child. Even though she has advanced to become a shadow walker, her temper has not changed yet. Coupled with her rare talents, Ellen is a treasure in his heart, and he is not willing to let her take risks and do dangerous things. Therefore, until now, Erin is completely unlike other young people in the green field who have gone out to fight and fight. Still as harmless as a docile goat.

Although having a temperament like Irene's will make the elderly feel considerate when they are around them, Feynman's world has never been a peaceful place, and the wilderness is full of savagery and killing. I'm afraid that a character like Irene will die prematurely in the future because of this. , this is something the old man doesn't want to see anyway, so he has always been worried about Irene.

"There seems to be a big problem on the human side recently. Many human adventurers are gathering at the Castle of Thorns, and there seem to be a lot less human caravans coming and going. I heard that it is because of the riots in the border countries of the Human Rose Principality and the Spring Country. After the Evil God’s Chaos, I’m afraid this world will be in chaos again!!”

As a senior executive of the Oak Merchant Group, the first-hand information that Ferok can obtain is far beyond what Allen, a remote indigenous leader, can compare with. At this time, the smile on the old man's face gradually faded, and a few dark clouds slowly appeared on his face.

"And you in the wilderness must also pay attention to it recently. It is said that many evil god believers have appeared in the central plain of Mansha, and they are massacring local natives to worship the Demon Lord of the Abyss and the Demon Lord. When you go back this time, remember to mention this to your clan leader Wake up and ask him to pay attention to what’s going on around him and be as cautious as possible.”

"kindness."

Erin nodded gently, keeping this in mind.

"By the way, when I go back this time, I'll tell your clan leader and ask him to take some time to come to Thorn Castle. I have some things to explain to him."

Ferok, who is childless, is now over 70 years old. Among the goblin clan, such an age should be considered a long-lived person. Except for those legendary and above strong men who have broken through the limits of mortals, it is really rare for goblins to naturally live to be over 70 years old. Especially in the wilderness, old goblins over 50 years old are extremely rare. Such old guys are most likely to be Banished to the wilderness to fend for themselves, or simply slaughtered for meat by the goblins of the settlement.

Therefore, Philok has already begun to plan his funeral arrangements. After struggling for so many years, he has accumulated some wealth in his hands, and naturally hopes to leave it to the people he values. The dozen students and apprentices around him are not up to par. Even if they are given this wealth, they may not be able to protect it. Even though the Elf Kingdom looks very civilized and follows rules, in fact they just hide their barbarism deep inside. People without any strength or status are not qualified to have mismatched wealth.

Of course, deep down in his heart, the old man still wants to see more goblins living a better life. After wandering outside for so long, he still has not forgotten how miserable and miserable he was when he was wandering and struggling in the wilderness, and why his parents, younger brothers and sisters died one by one.

This is the biggest pain in the old man's heart, and it is also the reason why he has been secretly funding and helping his fellow goblins who seem to be very capable over the years.

"Cough! Cough!"

Age is not forgiving. After just a few steps, Ferok felt out of breath and began to cough lightly.

"Grandpa, how about we..."

"Grandpa Ferok, I'm here!! Have you missed me?"

Just when Irene and the middle-aged goblin female were about to persuade Ferok to return to the house, a clear and loud voice came from afar, and at the same time, a tall figure with a fresh sweaty smell flew over like the wind, and then walked over to Old Ferok. Standing still in front of him, Kerr's excited and joyful face was revealed.

"What do you want me to do? When you came to the city, you didn't even think of coming to see me first, but you went to fight with others!!"

Old man Ferok deliberately kept a straight face and gently scolded Kerr, who was belatedly arriving.

The rather small garden quickly became lively again, and with the addition of a smart and lively girl like Kerr, the warm atmosphere in the garden became even more welcoming.

On the other side, Linus, who had just received funds and supplies, came to a store with familiarity, and pretended to shout to the busy elf clerk in the hall: "You guys, there are customers here, why don't you know how to come?" Would you like to greet me?"

"Hey, it turns out to be Mr. Linus, here to sell materials again this time?"

Because Linus is short in stature and the front desk in the store is a bit high, the busy clerk did not notice Linus's arrival. However, when he was reminded and looked down, it turned out to be Dakai, who is stupid and likes to show off. When the son arrived, he gave Linus a bright smile on the spot.

"What else?" Linus can show some confidence and confidence in front of the elves, probably now, so even if he knows that the purchase price offered by the other party is not very reasonable, he is just pretending to get the elf. Being diligent and flattering, he is also willing to sell the materials in his hand to the other party. At this time, Linus's little face was full of arrogance, just like a second-generation elf friend he had been dating.

"I have to thank Mr. Linus for always taking care of our store's business. Let me see what materials Mr. Linus has sent this time."

The guy had already figured out Linus's temperament, and naturally he didn't mind making meaningless expressions for the sake of money. Although this young man looked unattractive, he sent him materials for sale every few months. , there are indeed many good things. For example, the dozen or so red fire grasses that the clerk brought out now have well-preserved medicinal properties and were picked at the best time. One plant is worth a gold coin, but their shop bought it from the other party. But the price is only 50 silver coins.

Who wouldn't welcome such a Kaizi?

"Well, the materials this time are not much different from last time. How about we buy them at the last price?"

After making a rough estimate, the guy gave a price and said.

"How is that possible? I have personally checked it this time. There are many more materials than what was sent last time. Don't try to fool me!!"

Linus has taken a fancy to a good thing this time. He is thinking about selling this batch of materials at a good price and quickly get the good thing in his hands. By then, he will definitely receive countless envy in the temple school. Eyes.

"You are a regular customer of our store. How could I lie to you? The market is really not going well recently, and the prices of many of your materials have dropped!"

The guy dispelled Linus' suspicion with just a few words, and the smile on his face made it impossible for him to see any flaws.

"No, if that's the case, then I don't have enough money to buy that thing!!"

Although he no longer doubted the other party, he thought that if he sold the materials at this price, he would have no living expenses at all in the past few months. Linus made up his mind to check the purchase prices of other stores to see how much more he could get. Gold coins are also good.

Thinking of this, Linus stood up from his seat and ordered: "Help me wrap the materials. I won't sell them to you this time. I will take care of your family next time."

"Hey, Mr. Linus, wait a minute..."

The boy was anxious and quickly raised the starting price. After some good words and tricks, he finally raised the price of this batch of materials to 50 gold coins, and then watched Linus leave triumphantly.

"Tsk tsk tsk, what a fat sheep that's easy to fool!!"

The man was even happier. The actual purchase price of this batch of goods was at least 100 gold coins. Even if he deducted some money from it, more than ten or twenty gold coins would fall into his hands. How could he not let him take care of Linus, the big fat sheep? Stick to the ground properly.

After selling out all the materials he had originally prepared for studying spells, Linus turned around and ran into the pet shop on another street.

"Man, bring the mutated white wolf your family caught last time. I want to buy it!!"

As soon as he entered the door, Linus shouted loudly to the dazed waiter in the store.

When the elf boy heard that the business was coming, he raised his head again and again, and began to greet the guests: "It turns out to be you, sir. Do you have enough money this time?"

"If I don't have enough money, do I dare to come to your store? Hurry up, don't make ink marks on me!!"

Linus responded carelessly, looking like a rich man.

"Okay, just wait a moment, I'll get it for you right now!!"

The man smiled knowingly, then turned around and took out an animal cage from the animal rack at the back. In the cage was a snow-white young white wolf with its teeth grinning and a defensive posture.

"Sir, Chenghui 40 gold coins, thank you."

"Give you!!"

Linus painfully took out the wallet that he had already divided, poured it on the counter, and waited for the other party to finish counting.

"Okay, please walk slowly!"

The money came quickly and went away very well. Linus spent most of it in just half an hour, leaving only a mere ten gold coins for living expenses. Thinking about having to rely on this little money for at least the next three months, Linus suddenly felt a headache.

"Little guy, I sacrificed a lot for you!!"

As a druid apprentice, Linus has learned a lot over the years. He threw a magic spell to soothe animals at the little white wolf. The other person's eyes were blurred for a while, then he slowly bent down and curled up in the cage. It was because he was less hostile to Linus.

However, according to Allen's original plan, Linus was allowed to learn more about Druid's magical skills and knowledge about plant cultivation and improvement. after all. There are still two crystals about magic plants and magic alchemy in the clan, so they can't just be wasted, right?

However, Linus disliked the knowledge of plant magic as boring and boring, and there were not many good-looking elf girls in it, so he secretly put more energy into animal magic.

Instead of dealing with plants every day, it is very likely that in the future, druids will become natural healers and learn animal-related knowledge and magical skills. In the future, they can suddenly transform into powerful ferocious lions, iron-backed bears and other huge beasts to fight. Druid of the Claw, that is the path a pure man should take! ! Of course, a raptor druid who can transform into a bird is also good, but it still can't accommodate Leonard's heroic heart.

The most important thing is that understanding and learning the physiological structure and habits of animals is the basis for switching to Druid of the Claw, and a little guy like this furry and snow-white guy in front of you is not only a help for learning, but also the best recruitment tool. Girls love it. When I tame this little white wolf and take this little guy to the school, I won’t make all the elf girls in the school jealous to death!
  Then wouldn't it be natural for me to use the light of this little white wolf to communicate and learn with some female elf classmates?

When he thought of this, Linus's eyes were like a ball of fire. He wanted to tame this little white wolf right away and take him out to show off! !
