Chapter 170 Stormwind City and Westfall
"No! Candle, candle is my treasure!"
"I only have this one left, and I won't trade it for you!"
Listening to this strange voice communicating, Wayne also started from Returning to normalcy amidst the chaos of traveling through the world.
Before anyone noticed him, he quickly pulled out the electric dagger on his belt to stay on guard. He first put a layer of Quen shield on himself as insurance, and then carefully followed the route of the mine and walked out.
Unfortunately, as soon as I walked out of a corner, I saw two strange creatures holding old pickaxes in the mine. They were short and thin, wearing a few pieces of cloth, half-clothed, and with rat-like heads. Digging the ore from the wall while communicating in that strange language.
And the strangest thing is that these two creatures are carrying backpacks full of ore, and both have a thick candle lit on their bare heads, but one still has a large part left, and the other is almost burned to the bottom.
Kobold?
Looking at their images and the iconic candle on their head, Wayne's mind raced, and the name of this race quickly popped up.
However, fantasy creatures like kobolds exist in many fantasy worlds. Just seeing them appear, it is certainly impossible to tell what world you are in.
Fortunately, the vast majority of kobolds are goblin-level monsters, and their strength is several levels lower than that of ordinary civilians.
Judging from their small size, they have neither armor nor weapons. The iron pickaxe in their hands is their only weapon, and they should not pose any threat to him.
Wayne thought briefly for a second, then simply took out the invisibility cloak in his storage bag, put it on, carefully followed the route of the mine, and slowly walked out, instead of taking out his sword and killing these little trash.
It's not that he's afraid of these rubbish kobolds, it's mainly because of this space crack. If these kobolds are guarding it, it will be safer and will not make people suspicious.
The effect of the invisibility cloak is really good. Although it can't cover up the slight sound when he walks, it really completely covers his figure. Looking from the inside out, the entire invisibility cloak is completely transparent and can be seen clearly. Everything outside.
Relying on the witcher's agility and the kobold's low intelligence, Wayne avoided any danger along the way, bypassing all the kobolds in the mine and walking out of the mine.
This is a very small mine located at the foot of a hill. When Wayne looked out, he saw a barren yellow land with neither a lot of forest vegetation nor many lakes and rivers. The yellow soil is still covered with clumps of dry weeds. The blue sky also looks quite desolate under the reflection of the loess.
Wayne exhaled softly and looked at the desolate scene in front of him. He didn't know what to do next.
The purpose of his trip was simply to determine whether this world was dangerous and whether it was a world he was familiar with. To clarify these issues, it was best to find an intelligent creature that could communicate normally so that he could deduce it through clues.
After Wayne thought about it for a while, he suddenly saw a group of vultures circling in the sky. An idea flashed through him. He recalled the way of communicating with birds in his mind, came to a mound with a wide view, and then A loud whistle was blown.
Sure enough, with the help of the beast language ability, several vultures hovering in the sky seemed to have noticed something. After flying randomly in the sky for a while, they cautiously and doubtfully landed about seven or eight meters away from Wayne.
Staring at the tall human in front of him with round eyes, he was very confused as to why he could communicate with him, and why he could understand that strange whistle?
Seeing that his bestiality skill really came into play, Wayne was overjoyed. Sure enough, there was nothing wrong with choosing this skill and expertise. It was really practical.
Later, Wayne imitated the frequency of the birds' sounds and had very difficult verbal communication with these vultures. With the help of the special ability of beast affinity, although the vultures are scavengers, they sometimes attack They are humans, but their attitude towards Wayne is quite friendly, almost treating him as a kindred spirit.
Wayne even felt that if his beast-taming skills were improved to another level, he could directly ask these beasts to help him fight and order them to do what they can.
A few minutes later, after a lot of chatter and messy language exchanges, Wayne managed to get the information he wanted from these low-IQ vultures through questions and answers.
That is, in the northwest not far from here, there is a farm where a large number of crops are planted. There are also a group of creatures similar to him living in it, most likely human beings.
After receiving the news, Wayne did not hesitate, put on his invisibility cloak, took out the magic flying carpet from his storage bag, and drove it directly towards the northwest.
Sure enough, after flying for about a quarter of an hour, a farm with an area of about ten acres gradually appeared in front of Wayne.
However, at this time, most of the farmland in the farm was deserted, with only a few fields closest to the center of the farm still growing wheat-like plants. From a distance, there are several figures walking back and forth between the farmland and the farmhouse, seeming to be doing farm work. Judging from their appearance and dress, they are indeed human beings.
This discovery made Wayne feel relieved. That was good. As long as there was a world with humans, it was usually a world where normal communication was possible. If it was some messy, weird creatures, I'm afraid he would have no choice but to turn around and leave.
He quietly landed in an open space a few hundred meters outside the farm, put the magic flying carpet and invisibility cloak into his storage bag, and carried a one-meter-long two-handed sword on his back, and hung it on his waist. With a short sword, he walked in the direction of the farm with the attitude of an adventurer.
When I first entered the farm, the first thing I saw was a girl wearing a linen shirt on her upper body and canvas overalls on her lower body. Her chest was held up by the linen shirt and she was carrying a pitchfork. She looked like a farm worker.
She has an upper-medium appearance, brown hair in a ponytail, and is nearly 1.8 meters tall. Her skin is tanned due to working in the sun.
When Wayne saw her, she saw Wayne.
The farm girl was stunned for a moment. After seeing clearly the weapons and armor on Wayne's body, she clenched the pitchfork with some vigilance and asked in a slightly hoarse voice: "Who are you and why did you
come to my farm?"
she heard. There was no problem with the language communication between the two parties. Wayne was overjoyed. He raised his hands to show that he had no ill intentions and said with a smile on his handsome face: "Don't be nervous,
madam. I am a mercenary. I came here just to Buy some supplies, food, water, wine, etc., and see if you have any commissions that we need mercenaries to complete." In
this world, appearance is justice. Seeing Wayne's handsome face , the friendly attitude, the attitude of the farm girl immediately became much friendlier. Although she did not put down the pitchfork in her hand, after thinking for a few seconds, she still said to Wayne: "Mercenary? You are an adventurer, right?
" Are you from Stormwind City?"
"Come with me, I'll take you to see my parents. There are a lot of wild boars near the farm recently. I don't know where they come from. They always destroy our crops at night. If you can help us kill them, my parents should be willing to pay you a reward."
Stormwind City!
Hearing this name, Wayne probably guessed what world he was in now. While feeling happy, he couldn't help but feel a little dizzy.
The world of Azeroth! World of Warcraft!
A world spied upon by the Burning Legion!
He suppressed the complicated thoughts in his heart, kept a smile on his face, and followed the farm girl towards the farmhouse in the center of the farm.
After walking about a few dozen meters, a middle-aged couple dressed as farmers also walked over, followed by two sturdy farm workers holding farm tools.
They all looked at Wayne, who was wearing weapons and armor, with vigilant eyes. Their eyes especially stayed on the huge two-handed sword behind him for several seconds.
It wasn't until the farm girl explained a few words to the couple that the atmosphere at the scene eased slightly. The middle-aged man dressed as a farmer walked up to Wayne and looked at Wayne carefully for a while before speaking. Asked:
"Where did you come from as an adventurer? There are very few adventurers in our Western Wilderness."
When he heard the word Western Wilderness, Wayne's eyes flashed, and he knew where he was currently, and felt a sudden change in his heart. Song, he nodded to the farmer and said:
"Sir, nice to meet you."
"I am not from Stormwind City, I am an adventurer from the Kingdom of Lordaeron, venturing around the world. , while looking for commissions from all over the world, it was not until recently that he came to the Western Wilderness from Stormwind City."
The farmer was silent for a few seconds after hearing this. He could tell from Wayne's sophisticated weapons and equipment that the opponent's strength must not be underestimated. He looked at it, and after thinking about it, a smile suddenly appeared on his serious face, and he said:
"Since he is an adventurer from a distant place, he must be quite tired after a long journey." "
Welcome to our Lawrence Farm, we have entrusted you with this ." Let's not talk about it for now. I'll let my daughter take you to the restaurant for a simple lunch." "
After you have a rest, we will talk about business." "
The western wilderness has been very chaotic recently. Not only are all kinds of beasts Flooding, and the gnolls of the River Path Clan are robbing everywhere. Recently, I heard that a bandit organization called the Defias Brotherhood has emerged in the Death Mine." "
If you come here to look for commissions, there will definitely be no shortage of them. It’s work.”
