Chapter 18 Fruit Masked Man Liu Aiguo took the map and compass that Aina gave him as parting, and rushed towards Ridge Town alone.
In the end, he still couldn't talk through the stubborn Aina, and was kicked out by Rose. But now he no longer wants to be a lone thief, he wants to form his own group of thieves!
Liu Aiguo himself didn't quite understand why he, who had always found it troublesome, suddenly made such a decision. Perhaps he wanted to prove something to Aina and the military represented by Cai Ji.
As for the name of the band of thieves, he has no idea yet. He will wait until he meets that cynical guy Jin and ask him to think about it. Maybe this magician can have some good ideas.
When the Rose Thieves came from Ridge Town, they took mostly waterways, crossing three towns in half a month. The next stop was the legendary "Wind Dragon City"
But going back was much more troublesome. Because there was no magic motorboat and there was a mountain range in the middle, Liu Aiguo could only choose to walk by land, so he had to pass through the three major towns of Beilong, Kata and Chenhong.
Beilong and Kata towns are easier to say, but Liu Aiguo's last stop, Chenhong Town, is an important town where the military headquarters is stationed. There, I heard that a military commander is in charge (explain here)
Let’s look at the division of military cadre levels - the highest cadre in the military is the commander, below the commander is the corps commander, below the corps commander are the division commander, regiment commander, battalion commander and company commander, and above the commander is the parliament of the nobility.
)
And even in the nearest Beilong Town, there is a very powerful group of orc thieves stationed. It is said that the group of orc thieves is so arrogant and domineering that even the local townspeople complain so much that the military has also sent people to encircle and suppress it.
But every time they came, these orcs would get into the tunnels dug in advance, making it impossible for the officers and soldiers to start.
Once the people from the military department left, these orcs continued to come out to prey on the people and dominate Beilong Town. Because Beilong Town was of little value in the eyes of the military department, and it was quite a headache for those orcs who could not catch the shadows, they simply
Just leave it alone
Someone once missed it. This group of orc thieves called "The Roar" secretly bribed the top brass of the military, so every time the military came to encircle and suppress them, they would get inside information in advance.
When Liu Aiguo stepped into Beilong Town, his first feeling was that the people here were lifeless. Although the town was quite big, the townspeople rarely went out, there were not even city defense troops, and pedestrians were rare.
There were only some vendors selling feebly.
Liu Aiguo walked around this town for a long time. He didn't see any organized guild, whether it was a hunter's guild, a magic association, or even the most basic mercenary center.
He walked in a daze for a long time. The pedestrians and vendors around him raised their heads and glanced at him indifferently, then continued to lower their heads and do their own things. Liu Aiguo saw the grayness and despair in their eyes. This kind of look was the only one that Liu Aiguo had seen on earth.
Seen in small countries invaded by terrorists in 2016
Whether they are adults or children, they all have this look in their eyes, as if they are indifferent to death and are quietly waiting for the arrival of death.
Liu Aiguo walked to a small stall on the side of the road. This was a place selling barbecue snacks. The aroma was fragrant, but the business was bleak. The owner was an old man with a beard and a look of despair. It was estimated that this stall was his only way to make a living.
The reason why Liu Aiguo chose this place was because he saw a grilled salamander lizard. When Liu Aiguo was on Earth, he liked to eat grilled wings and drink beer. When he got here, the grilled salamander lizard became the only substitute. Beer, of course, was made with rum.
It was a substitute for wine, which tasted a little like fruit juice, reminding him of the Nestle orange juice his girlfriend made.
"Boss, two salamander lizards, many peppers, and a bottle of rum." He chose a relatively clean seat and sat down, calculating in his mind how long it would take to meet Jin in Ridge Town.
It is impossible to catch up with them halfway, because Jin knows a secret technique, so he may reach Ridge Town very soon. Even if he uses teleport all day long, it will take him a month unless he finds a way.
Magic motorboat drives directly from the waterway, the famous Imron River
The Imron River is famous because it surrounds the entire continent and divides it into small wholes.
As for the magic motorboat, Liu Aiguo has no solution for the time being. He will wait until his band of thieves is officially established.
"Your roasted lizard and beer, 30 silver coins." The bearded old man came over and put the two roasted golden lizards on the tray and an open bottle of beer on his table.
The place Liu Aiguo picked was quite lively. While nibbling on the oily lizard, he looked at the people around him. This should be the trade center of Beilong Town. Businessmen of all sizes set up stalls here, but there were no vendors.
People come shopping in a leisurely mood, but pedestrians buy what they want in a hurry and leave quickly, as if they are avoiding something.
Liu Aiguo felt like he was in a refugee camp
"Get out of here!" When he was losing interest, a tall green-skinned crocodile-man dragged a long tail and carried a broad-bladed knife the size of a door panel on his shoulder, driving away pedestrians and stepping on them.
Liu Aiguo walked over with heavy footsteps. He couldn't help but feel happy, because the crocodile man looked very distinctive, with two eyes, one big and one small.
"Old Man Sam!" The crocodile man came over and slapped the knife in Liu Aiguo's table, almost knocking over his wine glass.
"Sir, I really have no money..." Uncle Sam cried sadly, and knelt down in front of the crocodile man. With trembling hands, he secretly stuffed a worn space bag into his straw sandals.
"You old guy!" The crocodile man kicked the bearded Sam to the ground. Regardless of Sam foaming in pain, he picked up the worn space bag with a knife, opened the mouth of the bag, and took out the only thing inside.
A dozen silver coins were poured into the palm of his large hand
"No, sir!" When Sam saw his hard-earned money being taken away, he jumped up from the ground like a strong young man and hugged the crocodile man's small pillar-like thighs.
"Sir, that is my hard-earned money. I need to buy medicine for my sick daughter..."
"Get away!" The crocodile man flew up with another kick, trying to kick Sam away, but the old man didn't know where the strength came from, and he hugged his legs tightly. No matter how the crocodile man shook him, he still held on tightly.
The ground hangs there
"Lord Greenskin...give the little one a way to survive..."
"Pfft..." Liu Aiguo couldn't hold it back and spit out a mouthful of beer, spraying it all over the Crocodile Man's face. Liu Aiguo guessed that this guy's face must have turned green with anger, but his skin was originally green.
"Here you go!" The crocodile man spoke in an orcish dialect, "You are such a stranger, where did you come from?"
"My name is Liu Aiguo, thief." Liu Aiguo laughed and drank the last sip of beer, then lit a cigarette leisurely and held it in his mouth.
"Here you go! What a stupid name, I've never heard of it!" The green-skinned crocodile man spat on the ground, "What's the matter, you want to take care of this? Let me tell you, this is our 'roar'
Ditou, even if you are one of the four thieves, when you get here, you still have to show off on the street for me!"
"Hey, your tone is really loud." Hearing the green-skinned dialect, Liu Aiguo couldn't help but speak in Beijing accent, "I'm not the Four Emperors, my band of thieves is called the Fire Emperor!" He thought casually.
gave him a name because he wanted to let everyone know it quickly
"Go ahead! I don't care who you are!" The green skin stretched out his other foot and kicked Sam away. The old man's thin body smashed an already dilapidated table.
"Lord Greenskin..." Old Man Sam spit out a mouthful of blood, "I, my daughter..."
"Let's go ahead!" The green skinned man raised the big knife in his hand and slashed it at the old man.
"Let go!" Liu Aiguo quickly took out his revolver and pulled the trigger.
"Bang!" The bullets flying out from the tiger's roar pierced the huge blade, and the strong force caused the green-skinned tall body to tilt. At the same time, another person took action and saw a yellow banana spinning and flying over.
"Xiang, banana spinning blade!" The banana was like a sharp double blade, directly splitting the long knife in the green skin's hand into two halves, then spinning and flying back.
"It's Fruit Man, Fruit Man has appeared!" A group of townspeople ran around shouting to each other, extremely excited. To Liu Aiguo, it seemed like children on earth had seen Santa Claus.
But this Fruit Man made Liu Aiguo feel very ridiculous...
I saw that he was only about 1.7 meters tall, maybe a little shorter than that, because he was stepping on a very long loofah floating on the ground. Liu Aiguo couldn't see his face because he was wearing a black
mask and a big cape, a bit like Batman on Earth.
What's even more funny about this guy is that he's holding two very long cucumbers in his hands and gesticulating back and forth. His body is still burning with yellow fighting spirit. He can be considered a very good master.
"Go ahead! It's you again!" The crocodile man was angry, threw away half of the blade in his hand, pulled out a huge mace from the space bag, and held it in both hands.
"I won't let you run away again this time!" As he said that, he waved the huge mace, and with a whistling sound, he rushed forward and hit Fruit Man with a blow.
"I'll dodge!" Fruit Man stepped on the long loofah and floated into the air, dodging the green skin's attack.
"Stupid, clumsy guy." The stammering Fruit Man was still in a teasing mood. He put away the loofah, dropped it, stepped on the green-skinned mace with one foot, and ran lightly on it, with two hands in his hands.
Sweep a cucumber straight across the other person's face
It seemed that after eating these two cucumbers, the green man was so frightened that his green face turned pale. He lowered his head to dodge, and a small hat on his head was swept into four halves by the cucumbers.
"Go ahead!" Liu Aiguo imitated Green Skin's tone, "Are these two cucumbers very powerful? It seems that Green Skin, you are going to attack the street."
"Damn it!" The green skin shook his hand and shook Fruit Man away from the mace in his hand. Then he swept up the mace and quickly hit the little man wearing the mask, intending to turn him into a pulp.
"Watermelon bomb!" Fruit Man magically conjured a big watermelon and threw it at the green skin. The green skin quickly swung the mace like a baseball and knocked the watermelon into the air.
"Bang!" The red light flashed, and the watermelon exploded violently in the air. Although it could not match the power of Liu Aiguo's "grenade", it was not much different.
"Also, there's more, big guy, try this." Fruit Man jumped to a second-story building and dropped a potato. "Potato Doll!" The potato fell to the ground and began to sprout crazily. Some stones on the ground
The potatoes and soil were absorbed by the sprouts of the potato. The little potato slowly stood up and turned into a stone giant in the blink of an eye. There was a small groove on the top of the stone giant's head, like a pedestal.
Liu Aiguo was stunned. He didn't quite understand.
