The Troublesome Hero Among the Heroes

The wasteland path is oblique far away, and there is a slime deep in the maple forest.

The place where the maple forest is located is the piece of mountain region, where there are many mountains, streams and cliffs. The roads crossing here are snaking and snaking, making the caravan's speed impossible.

At about noon, the entire group came to an open space about the size of three basketball courts.

Aubrey, who rode in front of him, used a whistle to inform the team behind him to rest here for two hours. Everyone had something to eat and check the carts and horses. The next section of the road is easier to walk, the team will speed up.

This vacant lot was specially organized by the Megadon Family members for the rest of the travellers over the years. There is one place every other distance on the road. There are corresponding maps for sale in the village for travellers to arrange travel. Take a break. In order to grab business with another road to the east, Megadon Family has worked hard for many years.

Since no caravan has passed by recently, the clearing is now covered with tall weeds.

(｀[]´)۶༏❆﹏˷˳﹏ˌ˱﹏☄༐٩(•̀へ•́)

In the ice and fire of the two guards After the sky, the insects living in the grass, whether they were wings or crawling on the ground, were all killed.

Now when you are resting on the grass, you are not afraid of being sucked by the insect or getting into the meat temporarily. The coachmen can cut some of the masters who are in control of the fire and use the Fireball to bake them without worrying about parasites. The grass adds some roughage to the horse.

When they leave, the dead insects and weeds will become a delicious meal for the slimes of the scavengers. And nature will soon restore this open space to normal.

Charles had only seen his ex-maid exterminate insects in the garden with special magic that only kills insects and does not harm plants before his long lifetime. This is the first time I have seen such a heroic method.

Soon, Charles, who had eaten a piece of dry food, got a new task.

"Charles, go and catch a slime in the nearby woods." It was his current boss, Chef Tonio, who ordered Charles, "Don't go too far, shout when you are in danger."

"Okay." Charles patted off the dry food, drew out the dagger from his waist, turned around and prepared to walk into the woods.

"I'll go with you." Halkara jumped up from the ground, shaking the pair of milk foam on his chest.

"Then Charles, you can shout now." Tonio said to Charles.

"Huh?!" Charles was confused and called what?

"Halkara, don't mess with Charles." Aubrey ordered as the boss, "Charles, you quickly go and quickly return."

" Oh." Charles left cautiously.

Charles disappeared after turning the tree, Aubrey immediately winked at a mage next to him, and the mage knew, and immediately raised a magical barrier to isolate the sound.

Then Aubrey stood up and announced loudly: "From now on, in units of two minutes, everyone place your bets and hands off the table!"

"I bet one Dinar, he will escape in two minutes!"

"Four minutes, return without success, two dinars!"

"Six minutes, four of which are running Wrong way, two dinars!"

...

Unbeknownst to his knowledge, Charles became a tool for a group of unscrupulous people to bet.

٩(๑ `^´๑)۶: "How can you be like this!"

Halkara got angry, and the crowd of people suddenly fell silent, everyone looked Towards the angry Halkara.

(๑ˊωˋ)つ㊎: "I trust Charles, I have an Ole, and he will complete the task within half an hour!"

At this time, Charles is not leaving his resting place The distance was caught in a bitter battle.

(;▼ware▼)つ⊨▻ꙪꙫꙬꙭꙮ

Now Charles hit the slime's den.

The slime in the wild is nature’s scavenger. Insect and small reptiles, animal eggs and cubs, animal and plant carcasses, and animal feces are their food.

Moreover, they will pick up soft persimmons to pinch.

When a large animal is dying due to aging, injury, etc., the slime will block the opponent's nostrils and smother its prey. Then the slimes secrete acid to melt the fur, muscles and skeleton of the prey corpse, and then swallow them in their stomachs and digest them.

After eating and drinking, the slime will naturally reproduce the next generation, so the carcasses of large animals will often become their breeding grounds.

After stabbing a few slimes to death, the bullying and fearful slimes kept their distance from him. Don't look at the slime squirming slowly, but when it jumps up with its own elasticity, it is faster than a rabbit.

Charles has not seen many large animals. From the carrion on the ground, which is smaller than the car, he can't tell what it was originally.

But there is a hole next to it. If the stories are right, that hole is its nest.

Charles just thought about how to separate a slime from the entire group, but accidentally fell into their encirclement.

If it weren't for the sharp dagger in his hand, those slimes would have swarmed and pushed him down, and then suffocated him.

Different from the domestic slime which is thin and juicy, the wild slime is very skinny, stabbed with a knife like rubber.

Charles can't help it. If he takes out a bottle of potion named "wild beast" he prepared in the bag and spills it, the slimes will be smoked away by the smell every minute. But if you do that, you will lose money.

"ao wu ～wu wu wu ～"

There was a roar of cubs in the animal den.

Charles' eyes lit up, and immediately without the slightest hesitation, he took out a bottle of potion from his waist purse, twisted the lid, and smashed it near the animal den.

A stench permeates the forest. Slime's sense of smell depends on the skin, so the slime who is close to him is directly stunned.

Two white lights sprang from the animal den, and two young White Wolf the size of a dog rushed out of the hole, but fell down within two steps.

Charles didn’t care about the slime that was running away, he naturally wouldn’t let the EXP on the ground go, so he stabbed the fainted slime one by one, and then took the one with the magic core. The magic core is dug out. Although the slime cores are not valuable, dozens of slime cores the size of a little finger can be used for a full day, but it is also money.

In this world, those “fat house” slimes raised by the family have no magic core, and there is no EXP if they are killed. Only those "Showa" slimes in the wild will grow their magic cores when they become stronger in your life and death. Only when such a slime kills can there be EXP.

In addition to slime, other devil beasts are the same.

Although I don't know the principle, this does not prevent Charles from scouring around on the principle that the meat on the mosquito's legs is also meat.

According to Charles analysis, the dead animal should be the mother of the two little White Wolf. Judging from the decay of the corpse, its death did not last long.

According to the book’s record, he took the dagger and broke through the little flesh of the wolf’s head. Then he found the demon-cored bone on the wolf’s skull and the skull near the demon core. There are signs of healing after the fracture.

From the size of the magic core, it can be seen that this she-wolf was very powerful during her lifetime. It is estimated that she was planted in the hands of slime after a serious head injury.

After digging out the magic core, Charles put it in his pocket, then picked up a basketball-sized slime and left.

He can't carry the two fainted little wolves, so he intends to go back and ask others if they want them, come and take away what they want, and let them fend for themselves in the maple forest if they don't. .

Every year before maple forest picks maple syrup in spring, a group of adventurers will come here to eliminate the devil beast that threatens sugar pickers, so don't grab other people's business.

As a result, Charles didn't take two steps before he found that the two little wolves had stood up and followed him slowly. When he stopped, the two little wolves were rubbing against his legs.

"Our caravan cannot raise these two Timberwolves." Aubrey said to Charles while playing with the magic core dug out of the she-wolf's skull, "Because wolves grow up to frighten horses. Yes. If horses adapt to the existence of wolves, when they encounter other wolves that are about to eat them, they will become paralyzed and become a wolf’s plate meal."

Maybe these two wolves The young wolves not long after weaning recognize the mother's magic core, so now they are rubbing against Aubrey.

Charles who was counting money gave an "Oh" and then continued to count the money in his hand.

It took Charles a total of 29 minutes to complete the task, so Halkara, who killed the audience, gave him half of the winnings.

According to the rules of the caravan, such unexpected harvest belongs to the personal property of the members and can be handled by themselves without affecting the caravan.

He didn't refuse Aubrey's decision, and he didn't want to refuse. If he can't raise it, then sell it. That's what he planned at first. The money for "stinking wild beast" has been paid back by selling the she-wolf's magic core and it has made a lot of money. Selling more is not more income.

As for the protagonists in those novels when they picked up two young devil beasts when they were just fledgling, he didn't have much interest in the plots that were so beastly after raising him.

Two experienced and knowledgeable wolves, Halkara, who is more than 300 years old, and Aubrey, who has spent several decades in the rivers and lakes, think that the two young wolves are just ordinary. If this is the case, then It's sold out.

Aubrey threw the magic core back to Charles, and then said to him: "You go to Wayne and ask him to help you wrap the magic core in a jewelry case and sell it. A good price. Of course, you have to spend your own money."

Wayne is the artisan leader in the caravan. Whether it's carriage, leather armor or weapons, there is nothing he can't fix. Under Aubrey’s guidance, Charles learned that Wayne had once worked as an apprentice with a dwarf craftsman, and his craftsmanship was superb. Without him in the caravan to repair the car, the profit would be greatly reduced because the car had trouble on the road. .

Wayne, who lost two dinars in the previous bet, didn't have any bad impression of Charles, but instead gave him a high look because of it.

"The quality of the magic core of this Wind Attribute is very high." Wayne carefully looked at the magic core in his hand, "I happen to have an empty necklace here. You can polish the magic core. Engrave the magic array and inlay it, whether you use it yourself or sell it."

With more than an hour before the end of the break, Wayne took professional tools and started polishing the three-piece mahjong. A card-sized magic core.

Because Charles used a lot of energy to cut through the bones of the she-wolf’s skull to take out the magic core, so after grinding away the magic core and the bone part, the whole piece The essence of the magic core is only the size of an adult's thumb.

While Wayne was polishing the magic core, Charles was called by Tonio to help.

Tonio asked Charles to catch a slime and came back not to bet on money, but he found that the floor of the food truck had been bitten by a mouse last night and he needed slime to fill the hole.

When Charles brought the slime back, Tonio had asked Wayne to help trim the hole into a trapezoid opening with a small lower and a larger opening, and at the same time he made a piece of wood that could perfectly cover the hole. Block on top.

Tonio set up a fire in the clearing with a copper crucible hanging on it. He first cut the slime into small pieces and threw it into the pot, then used a wooden stick to squeeze out the moisture in the slime block, and finally put it on the fire while heating it while stirring.

Not long after, the slime pieces began to melt and the contents of the pot began to become sticky. When all the moisture in slime body has evaporated during heating and stirring, a pot of slime glue is ready.

Tonio applied slime glue to the edge of the hole on the car floor and the edge of the wooden block and then glued it on.

After the slime glue cools, the wood block is firmly glued to the bottom of the car, and it is also waterproof.
