"Indeed, we all need some good luck." Moriarty also smiled, and then looked at the undulating sea again: "So, Mr. Bruno, how many armor-piercing arrows do you need?"
"Your Excellency, if possible, I would like to get ten armor-piercing bursting arrows and twenty burning arrows." Bruno obviously already had a clue and said directly without thinking.
"Ten burst, twenty burn..."
This quantity does not put any pressure on Moriarty, but if calculated according to NATO's current official quotation, the corresponding price will reach 15,000 gold coins, which is by no means small for individual buyers.
The number is up.
"It shouldn't be a big problem." After pondering for a while, Moriarty nodded with a smile, but at the same time: "So, what is your bid for these materials? Of course, I am willing to accept alchemy materials or magic scrolls.
The price will be paid in kind.”
"You are really a considerate and kind person." Seeing that the other party agreed to his purchase application, Bruno's eyes showed a smile: "Of course, I will do my best to repay your generosity and kindness."
After speaking, Bruno took out a palm-sized slice from his arms and handed it over.
"This is?"
Moriarty inserted the fishing rod into the gap in the deck beside him, stood up, took the slice, and found that it turned out to be a withered yellow leaf.
It's just that it's different from ordinary yellow fallen leaves. This leaf is not made of plant fiber. Not only is it heavy, but it's also extremely tightly woven. Moriarty pulled the edge of the sheet with a little force, but he couldn't do it under the pull of his third-level warrior.
Destroy nothing.
The most peculiar thing is that the front and back of this withered yellow leaf are covered with dense warp lines and lines. But when you look closely, you can find that those lines are not naturally formed, but are artificially carved characters.
and talisman patterns. However, due to the passage of time, the patterns in some places have become blurred.
"This is...'Magic Leaf'?" Moriarty gently stroked the surface of the leaf and looked up at Bruno.
"Indeed, Your Excellency. This is a magic leaf inherited from the ancient Elf Empire." The elf nodded.
Just like the magic books and spell scrolls of human magicians, in the era of the ancient Elf Empire, those powerful elves who were like gods were accustomed to record their magic knowledge and spells in this kind of "leaves" planted through special magic gardens.
superior.
However, after the collapse of the ancient elven empire, the secret craft of planting and making magic leafs was completely lost. After tens of millions of years, the magic leafs that still exist in the world are really rare and rare.
beg.
"What is recorded on this leaf?" Moriarty then asked.
"Unfortunately, Your Excellency, I don't know this either." Regarding this question, the elf shook his head helplessly and disappointedly: "I am not a magic professional, so I cannot decipher the actual content of this leaf. And if
As you can see, the ruthless time has left indelible marks on it. This also makes it more difficult for us descendants to recognize its true face."
"A broken magic leaf..." Moriarty returned his gaze to the leaf.
"Yes, it's a pity. Of course, if this is a complete Feiye, I think I can end my mercenary career and return to my hometown." At this time, Bruno suddenly said.
"Of course." Moriarty naturally understood what the other party meant.
There is no doubt that the asking price for a perfect magic leaf inherited from the ancient Elf Empire will not be just 10,000 or 20,000 gold coins. In fact, many great arcanists will be very interested in it and will not hesitate to pay a lot of money.
"It seems like an irresistible gamble." After thinking for a while, Moriarty suddenly smiled: "I have to say, Mr. Bruno, you have captured the weakness of a magician."
"Haha, I am just grateful for your generosity and kindness." Seeing that Moriarty agreed to his offer, the elf immediately relaxed and bowed slightly to the other party.
To be honest, Bruno has tried to sell the magic leaf to other mid-level and high-level mages before, but the results were not satisfactory. For no other reason, the surface of this leaf has been severely damaged, and no mage has the ability to do so.
I am confident that it can be repaired or restored successfully. The value of the magic leaf that cannot be read will undoubtedly be greatly reduced, and at most it will be nothing more than an ancient artifact with historical significance.
"Can I ask where you got this leaf?" At the stern of the ship, Moriarty delivered a total of thirty armor-piercing arrows to the other party without leaving any trace, and then asked.
"That was more than fifty years ago." The seventh-level magic archer naturally has his own storage equipment. After briefly checking the goods, the elf put away the magic arrows with satisfaction and said at the same time: "My companions and I
In Aveli, I sniped a Dejia Necromancer who entered the country rashly. This magical leaf was my trophy. It is quite ironic that something that originally belonged to the elves was recaptured by the elves after thousands of years. Haha, when
What a strange fate..."
"That's it." Moriarty nodded and said nothing more.
After that, Bruno said goodbye and left.
"Moty, what is that guy looking for you for?" As soon as the elf left, Guderian appeared sneakily.
"Just chatting." Regarding the transaction of the magic leaf, Moriarty didn't want too many people to know about it, so he smiled casually: "Do you know him?"
"Hey, of course I know you. 'Lightning Man' Bruno is quite famous in the mountains of Aveili." The silver-bearded dwarf nodded and said: "Of course, there is still a big gap between him and me."
"His archery skills are very strong?" At this time, White also came to Moriarty and asked directly.
"It's quite powerful." Guderian glanced at Bruno's back: "Not only is he a Sanhua-level magic archer, he also learned a lost 'bow fighting skill' from somewhere, which is quite difficult to deal with."
"Bow fighting skills!" White was suddenly shocked.
"What is that?" Moriarty glanced at the follower.
"Bow fighting is a legendary skill of the elf rangers in ancient times, but I have only heard of it but never really seen it. According to legend, archers who have mastered bow fighting are no longer only good at long-range attacks, but are better than warriors with swords.
Possessing more powerful and sharp melee strength."
As a former crossbowman, White naturally has in-depth research on bow and arrow combat skills. However, unlike humans who prefer shooting speed and precise mastery of complex weapons, elven archers use mysterious shooting skills.
And precise sight distance are its specialties.
"I heard that this Bruno once killed five vampires single-handedly, including a baron." At this time, the silver-bearded dwarf added.
"Killed a 'blood baron'?" Moriarty frowned.
"That's right." Guderian was sure: "It was because his only sister was kidnapped by the undead that Bruno chased after him to rescue him alone. Unfortunately, he finally came back, but the female elf did not.
It has been given the 'First Embrace'. Although the 'blood mutation' was stopped after subsequent treatment, it still became a semi-undead body after all."
"Half-undead elf? How is this possible?"
Having worked hard in the Dawn Fortress for many years, White is an out-and-out expert on the undead problem. As he was surprised, how could elves whose nature is biased towards the divine order maintain the physique of the undead while maintaining life? This is no different than that of humans.
Some "demon types" can become "yin and yang dual attributes" by swinging a sword in one palace. Once the souls of elves belonging to the lawful camp are contaminated by the undead, they will either be completely transformed into undead or completely collapse. In addition,
There shouldn't be a third way out.
"Everyone can't figure out what happened to Qingchu. Later there were rumors that Bruno's sister was actually a spy sent by Dejia, disguised as an elf until she was discovered. Otherwise, there is no way to explain everything that happened to her." Ginsu
The dwarf lowered his voice rarely, as if he was worried that his gossip would be heard by the elves in the distance.
"So how is Bruno's sister doing now?"
"What else could we do? The half-undead elf was almost tied up on a firewood pile and burned by those old stubborns in the elf tribe!" Speaking of this, Guderian couldn't help but sigh: "Fortunately, Bruno is very capable and has a tough face.
, and finally saved her sister’s life. However, the brothers and sisters were expelled from Avili by the elves and began to wander around.”
"So that's it." Moriarty understood somewhat why a three-flower magic archer appeared in such a dangerous "Operation North Wind".
"One day, I will tear all those stinky bones into pieces!" At this time, White seemed to have remembered some of his previous experiences, and punched the ship's board with a "thud" and said fiercely.
"Hey, don't forget to call me!" Guderian, who had also suffered a lot at the hands of the undead, immediately responded.
"no problem!"
Seeing that the two followers who rarely seemed to reach consensus had a "common language", Moriarty couldn't help but laugh.
After a while, White went to inspect other parts of the deck, while Guderian lay back next to his wine barrel and continued to drink.
"I'm going back to the cabin to rest for a while. Tchaikov, help me guard the cabin door and don't let others disturb me." At this time, Moriarty turned to Naga and said.
"Don't worry, Morty, as long as I'm guarding you, even if the dragon comes to visit, you won't be disturbed."
Since becoming Moriarty's followers, the three Balalaika brothers have been responsible for the mage's personal security work. Not to mention, these three big guys have done their job very seriously and diligently, and they are worthy of the "Guderian" given by Guderian.
Evaluation of "honest person". (To be continued...)
