Rubik’s Cube Heavens
v3 Chapter 24: fair
Erza looked very embarrassed at this time, and could not help but turn her head to look at Kewen subconsciously.
However, she immediately turned her pretty face back, because it had already been agreed that this time the task would be dominated by her throughout the whole process, and she could not immediately show her timidity if she could not encounter a problem.
After hesitating for a moment, Elsa didn't think of any good solution, and could only say to the man named Sashou in a slightly dry tone: "Mr. Sashou, can you roughly point out the location of that route for us? We You can find it yourself."
The man still shook his head immediately: "There is no way, I have to turn many routes to find the cave, I have no way to explain it to you."
Hearing this, Erza couldn't help but sighed and said helplessly: "Then, please tell us the location of the misty valley, Mr. Sashou."
"I won't tell you." The man insisted, "I absolutely can't let you die."
Erza is about to say something.
"but……"
There was a sudden change in the man's tone, with a greedy look in his eyes, and he whispered seductively: "Since you are mages, you are not short of money, right?"
"Why not!? I..."
Halfway through her words, Erza suddenly noticed something and looked up at the other party with a strange look in her eyes.
After a while, Erza calmed down and asked, "Mr. Sashou, but what?"
The man glanced at Kewen, who had never spoken, and then said to Erza, "If you are willing to pay me to hire me, I can take you there myself."
"Really!?" Elsa's face was filled with joy, and she quickly asked, "How much do you want!?"
"One million gold!"
"What!?" Erza immediately shouted: "Our mission this time has a bounty, and the total price is only 1.2 million gold! You actually want 1 million!?"
The man was stunned for a moment, and then immediately changed his words: "Sorry, I don't know, so how about 600,000?"
"Or not!"
Erza shook her head and refused: "The bounty needs to be divided between me and my companions! If we can only share 300,000 per person, we might as well give up this mission!"
"Then how much do you say?" The man said slightly weakly: "I also have a large family to support. If you can't give a suitable price, I will never take you into the mountains."
Hearing this, Elsa immediately became entangled, and after a moment of hesitation, she said in a deep voice, "400,000! This is the highest price I can give!"
"Okay." The man immediately agreed, as if afraid of Erza's repentance.
"Then when do we leave?" Erza said with some pain.
"You can do it anytime." The man said as he turned and walked into the hut, "When I bring some dry food, I will have to walk for more than a day after entering the mountain."
Erza nodded in disinterest, and said without hesitation, "Okay."
Not long after, the man came out with a shoulder bag on his back, greeted Kewen and Erza, and then took the lead in walking towards the mountains...
More than two hours passed in the blink of an eye.
Bang!
A huge wild boar nearly 1.5 meters tall suddenly 'howled', and the big bag on the top of its head fainted to the ground.
Erza retracted the small fist wrapped in the metal gauntlet, turned her head and asked the hunter Sa Shou, "Is there no magical beast in this mountain? Why are all the beasts appearing?"
"Yes." Sa Shou explained: "We are still on the outskirts of the mountain range, and if we go deeper into it for about two hours, we will reach the area where the beasts are active."
"I see."
Erza showed a stunned look, and said with a little admiration on her face: "Mr. Sashou is worthy of being called the best hunter by the townspeople."
"The prize is over, let's move on."
"Okay!" Erza responded energetically and followed Sa Shou's lead.
As Sa Shou said, after walking for more than two hours again, the three of them came across a monster, a big rabbit with a height of nearly two meters and a very fierce expression.
The big rabbit's two front claws are very sharp and the speed is very fast. The huge body bounces back and forth between the trees, but it seems to be as light as a swallow.
In terms of speed, Erza may not be good at it now, so after chasing the violent rabbits that attacked the team, she simply stood firm in a small clearing.
The sight kept following the moving direction of the big rabbit. Not long after, the big rabbit suddenly swooped down from a big tree.
Bang!
The dull crashing sound spread, and the big rabbit seemed to completely press Erza under him.
However, upon closer inspection, she realized that it was Erza who raised her two thin arms and grabbed the two sharp front claws of the big rabbit with her hands.
Half of her calf was submerged in the ground, and Elsa's pretty face was slightly red. While wrestling with the big rabbit's two front paws, she raised her head and showed a smug and revengeful smile: "This time! I'll see where you're going!"
After the words fell, Erza suddenly squatted slightly, and retracted the two arms holding the rabbit's front paws.
Because the big rabbit has been pressing down on his front paws, he suddenly lost his focus at this time, and his body couldn't help but fall down suddenly.
At this moment, Erza suddenly let out a low voice, and her body jumped up with force.
Bang!
The crisp sound of impact sounded, and Erza's small head instantly slammed into the rabbit's chin like a cannonball.
The big rabbit's body couldn't help changing from swooping forward to leaning back, and then his feet lifted off the ground, and finally fell to the ground with a 'bang'.
The two eyeballs spun around weakly and disorderly, apparently fainting.
With a clatter, Erza landed on both feet, with a red forehead on her back, tears in her eyes, staring at the big rabbit and laughing loudly: "How is it! You **** big rabbit! In the end, I am the victor!"
At this time, Kewen and Sa Shou came out from behind a big tree.
Kewen looked at Erza's proud look and couldn't help but smile: "You still have a sword hanging from your waist, why didn't you just stab it to death with a sword when it fell down?"
"Ah?" Elsa turned her head blankly, looked at Kewen with big tearful eyes and responded, "But it didn't use weapons, isn't that unfair?"
Kewen had already walked in front of Erza, raised his right hand when he heard the words, bent and tapped the red forehead of Little Loli: "It's sharp claws are weapons, why are you like Natsu, no wonder Mira said you were rigid."
"Ouch!" Elsa immediately covered the red and swollen bag on her forehead, more tears fell from her eyes, and she said shyly and loudly: "You, you are rigid! I am respecting my opponent! I, I Aren't you wearing armor too!?"
Hearing this, Kewen shook his head helplessly and did not intend to say more. After all, everyone has different rules of conduct, and Kewen intends to respect Erza's ideas.
Glancing at the unconscious big rabbit, Kewen said, "Then, you don't plan to kill this rabbit, right?"
"Of course." Elsa rubbed her forehead carefully, and nodded as she should: "I have already defeated it, why do I still want to kill it? Didn't the president of the council also teach us to respect life? "
"Okay." Kewen bypassed the big rabbit and continued to walk forward: "Then let's continue, and go deeper while it's still more than an hour before it gets dark."
Erza nodded and followed, and when she passed by the big rabbit, she couldn't help but snorted arrogantly at the other party.
In the back, Sashou stared at the backs of Kewen and Erza, then walked after him in silence...
Before dark, the team encountered a monster again.
It was a huge black bear with an upright height of nearly five meters.
It was still Elsa who attacked alone, using her petite body to collide directly with the black bear.
After being knocked away again and again, after nearly five minutes of fierce fighting, Erza seized a chance.
In the process of being fanned away, Erza quickly turned her body in the air, then stepped on the trunk of a giant tree with her feet, and then quickly bounced back.
Before the black bear had time to react, Elsa successfully knocked the black bear to the ground with a knee strike.
However, the physique of the black bear was much stronger than that of the previous big rabbit, so he woke up after not being in a coma for a long time.
What surprised Kewen was that the black bear seemed to have human reason. After sobering up, he did not continue to fight with Erza. Instead, he restrained his ferocity and sat there with his head bowed in frustration.
Elsa was in a state of embarrassment, gasping slightly and standing in front of the **** bear, and then, like the boss of a bad boy, pinched her waist and reprimanded the **** bear: "I won! You are not allowed to attack humans in the future! Remember! ?"
The **** bear looked up at Erza unwillingly, and finally roared in resentment, and the bear paw smashed the ground with a 'bang'.
Just when Kewen thought the battle was about to start again, the **** bear got up slowly, turned around and left in despair.
It wasn't until the back of the **** bear completely disappeared into the jungle that Elsa made a 'bang' and laid her small body on her back on the ground in a 'big shape'.
While gasping for breath, Elsa showed a big smile~lightnovelpub.net~ and said smoothly: "This battle is really fun! Doing missions outside the town, it turns out that you can meet so many powerful opponents!"
Kewen looked at Erza on the ground, and then in the direction where the **** bear was leaving. After a moment of silence, he couldn't help but smile...
The sky is getting dark, and the moon is on the branches.
The three of them began to camp at the battle ground.
Elsa still has some life skills, she simply made some rice porridge with the pot and pan hanging on her backpack, and ate dinner with jerky.
Corvin also didn't take the meal out of the suitcase, but ate a meal with Erza.
After the two negotiated the order of the vigil, Erza set up the tent and got in to start to rest.
Sitting in front of the fire, Kewen listened to the slight breathing from the tent, raised his hand and filled a few dead branches into the fire.
Then, his eyes slowly slanted, and he glanced at Sa Shou, who was sleeping on a tree root...
