Chapter 335: The handsome second male lead appears?
Generally in this kind of sword and magic world, the traveler from another world is the proper protagonist of the world.
Just like the talented dog in the zero-user world, and like Rudeus in the jobless world.
Obviously, Wood believed that the black-haired boy in front of him should be the proud protagonist of this world, so it was quite normal for him to carefully examine him.
The boy with black hair and black eyes is named Cai Yueang. Just as Wood thought, he is indeed a boy from another world.
At that time, he was obviously still shopping at a convenience store, but when he walked out of the convenience store, he came to a different world in a daze.
After realizing the fact that he had traveled through time, Cai Yueang did not panic or yell like ordinary people. Instead, after calming down, he suddenly fell into a burst of ecstasy.
As a nerdy boy, Natsuki has played many RPG games and read many novels and comics. For him, being able to travel through time is not a bad thing.
Because whether it is a novel or a game, the protagonist who can travel through time is undoubtedly the chosen one chosen by the gods. Becoming a brave man, embracing beautiful women, etc. are all basic operations.
Besides, he was nothing in the original world. Now that he has started living in a different world, with his numerous game experiences and modern knowledge, is he still afraid that he will not be able to prosper?
Unlike most otherworld travellers, Cai Yueang felt that he was awake in the world. After he came to this world, he really regarded himself as the protagonist and regarded everything here as a game.
And as if to verify his conjecture, not long after he arrived in this world, he met a silver-haired beautiful girl and triggered a mission event.
Natsuki Ang, who is familiar with playing various games, knows very well that the beautiful girl appears together with the mission event, so as long as he helps the beautiful girl complete the mission, he can gain favorability and officially start his journey to another world.
When he learned that Emilia's belongings had been stolen by a thief, Natsuki Ang vowed to help.
However, just as he started to take action, Cai Yueang discovered that the triggered event did not seem to be as simple as he imagined.
Emilia looks like a slender girl, but she runs as fast as a gust of wind, and her physical strength seems to be exceptionally good.
His 60-pound wrist strength, which Cai Yue'ang is proud of, seems to have no chance to show off here.
And what makes Natsuki Ang feel even worse is that he seems to have triggered a common branch plot in the game, and that is the handsome blond guy in front of him.
Isn't it common in various games and novels to have handsome second male characters who are often just idiots?
This kind of character appears just to compete for the female character. In the end, it usually becomes a stepping stone for the protagonist, indirectly increasing the favorability between the protagonist and the female character.
Obviously, at this moment, Natsuki Ang regarded the Wood in front of him as such a fool as the second male lead.
There is a hint of hostility toward him, not only because he thinks Wood will compete with him for Emilia, but also because Wood is so handsome!
A person with good looks will certainly be more popular, but only if he is of the opposite sex.
Just like Cai Yueang, he hates handsome guys very much, especially the handsome guys who may become his love rivals. Naturally, he dislikes them even more.
"There is no other way. The opponent has special "protection" and may not be able to catch up with him now.
We can only use other methods to see if we can find each other."
Felt... is the girl with withered golden hair from before. She has the protection of the wind. Emilia and the others were getting farther and farther away from her. Just because of Wood's delay, they have lost each other now.
trace.
"Don't worry, Emilia, I will definitely find a way to help you find your things."
Although Cai Yueang has not discovered any cheats on himself at this moment, and the people in this world seem to be more extraordinary than the world he lives in, Cai Yueang is so confident.
If you want to ask why, it is that he knows that he is the protagonist, and as long as he is the protagonist, then there will definitely be a way.
If the combat power is not good, then just rely on brainpower to pass. Judging from his experience in various RPG games for many years, in this situation, they usually have to find NPCs to help them.
"Uncle, can I ask you something?" Cai Yueang, who felt that he had thought of the key to breaking the situation, looked at the uncle selling fruit at a nearby stall and asked.
As a vendor who has set up stalls here all year round, and the uncle just now saw the appearance of the blond girl, Cai Yueang thought that the uncle probably knew her.
"Brother in fancy clothes, do you want to buy some fruits? I can guarantee that our fruits are definitely the best on this street." The owner of the fruit stall saw Cai Yueang asking, and immediately greeted Cai Yueang with a smile on his face.
road.
"No, I didn't want to buy fruit, I just wanted to ask, does the uncle know the girl who bumped into this guy before?"
Hearing that Cai Yueang just wanted to ask questions and not make purchases, the originally enthusiastic uncle's smiling face immediately dropped, and then he said: "If you don't want to buy anything, please get out of the way quickly and don't affect me.
Business."
Seeing the uncle with a huge difference in attitude before and after, Cai Yueang looked embarrassed, although he could only touch his pocket and took out a crumpled banknote.
"Sure enough, no matter which world we are in, human beings are quite realistic creatures." He handed his living expenses for the next week or so to the other party.
Natsuki Ang originally thought he could get enough information in exchange, but who knew that after the other party took the yen from Natsuki Ang's hand, he threw it back with a look of disgust and said: "Who are you fooling with a piece of paper? If
If nothing happens, get out of the way quickly.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! The few of you are stuck here, making other people afraid to come over to buy things."
Seeing that nearly a week's living expenses were like a discarded piece of waste paper in the eyes of the other party, Cai Yueang finally realized that this was a different world, and the money in his world was of no use.
"Emilia, do you have any money with you?" Natsuki turned to look at the silver-haired girl behind him and asked.
"I went shopping with Rem, and I didn't bring any money with me."
“Damn it, we don’t have enough start-up funds, so we can’t provide compensation in exchange for information?
So in this situation, I should complete other tasks first and earn some start-up capital before starting the follow-up of this task?"
Although Emilia couldn't understand most of Natsuki Ang's soliloquies, at this moment she understood that Natsuki Ang was probably helpless, so she took the initiative to comfort her: "It's okay, Ang, thank you very much.
Willing to help me.
But now I have to find that person as soon as possible."
What was stolen from Emilia was a dragon badge, which represented her status as one of the candidates for the pro-Dragon Kingdom.
If the badge is lost, it will undoubtedly be the same as losing the right to be a candidate, so she has no idea of wasting time here.
"Uncle, give me a pound of apples, and tell me by the way, there should be something like a slum or a black market here, right?"
Just when Emilia and Natsuki turned around to leave, Wood, who had been standing silently behind them, suddenly spoke, and directly popped a silver coin in front of the uncle at the fruit stand and said.
The highest unit of currency in the Kin-Dragon Kingdom is the gold dragon coin, followed by the silver dragon coin and ordinary copper coins. Gold, silver, and copper all have an exchange rate of one hundred to one.
A pound of apples costs at most a few copper coins, and the Silver Dragon coins given by Wood are naturally more than enough.
Don't ask why Wood is rich? Because as soon as he touched his pockets, he found these things in his trouser pockets.
It seems that the character he simulated this time is still a very rich guy. After all, there are not many ordinary people who can take out gold dragon coins.
Kaizi buying a pound of apples with one silver coin is rare these days. The uncle boss immediately helped Wood load a pound of apples with a smile on his face and showed Wood the way to the slums.
Even before leaving, he didn't forget to remind Wood and the others that the slums were full of people and gangsters everywhere, so they should be careful.
"This uncle is really a snobbery. If you are rich, why don't you just ask if the other person knows who the girl just now is?"
The chance to express himself in front of Emilia was gone, and Natsuki Ang was also quite frustrated.
At the same time, he didn't know why Wood was doing a place like the slums instead of asking about the girl's origins.
"It's a very simple reason. Regardless of whether the uncle knows the girl just now, even if he does, I don't think the other party will tell us much.
When I met the girl before, I noticed that her clothes were even more shabby than those of passers-by on the street.
And if the thing she stole has no value in itself and is of no use to her.
Then it is very likely that it was commissioned by someone, or it was intended to be sold."
After hearing Wood's words, Emilia also said at the side: "Although the things stolen from me are very important to me, they are probably not particularly precious to others."
"No matter whether it is a precious item or not, when it is of no use to him, the first thing a thief will think of is to sell it for money.
Because stolen goods come from irregular sources, they can usually only be sold in the black market, and black markets are usually found in places with poor security and chaos."
As one of the underground bosses in the pirate world, Wood is naturally quite familiar with the processes in the underground world.
"I see, that's why, little brother, you asked the uncle just now if there are any slums or black markets around here?
Do you want to rush to the black market here in advance and wait for the thief to come to the door? I didn’t expect you to be quite capable, little brother."
Parker clapped his paws and instantly understood Wood's intention and praised him without hesitation.
"Thank you very much for your help. If I can find what I lost this time, I will definitely repay you."
Without Wood's assistance, Emilia would have been able to find the slums through the tiny elves in the air, but it would have taken a lot of time.
"It doesn't matter what I repay, after all, it was because of me that you lost track of each other.
Then I wish you can find your lost property as soon as possible, and I’ll excuse you for now.”
After helping Emilia and the others determine the general direction of the thief, Wood did not choose to continue to act with Emilia and the others, but chose to leave.
Although anyone with a discerning eye can see that Natsuki Ang is the protagonist of the world, and Emilia and the others are the so-called protagonist group, and they are obviously promoting the plot of the world.
But what does this have to do with him, Wood?
Wood is not an ordinary time traveler. He does not need to complete any messy tasks, he only needs to experience this period of life well.
The world is so big, and you don’t have to follow the protagonist to gain anything.
Of course, if you follow the protagonist, the opportunities will definitely be greater than exploring on your own, but the risks will definitely be directly proportional to it.
When Wuji reincarnated into the world, Wood had no choice, because Rudy, as the protagonist, was his half-brother, and Natsuki Ang had nothing to do with him in this world, so he didn't need to take care of or help him at all.
.
Emilia and Parker didn't find it too strange that Wood simply left. After all, they met by chance and Wood was willing to help them so much, which was considered good. There was no reason to go on adventures with them.
But Cai Yueang on the side was a little stunned, because he had always regarded Wood as the imaginary enemy of the second male lead, but he didn't expect that the other party would leave so simply?
To be honest, after Wood had just received money in exchange for information, and after some rational reasoning and gaining everyone's approval, Cai Yueang felt that he was under a lot of pressure.
Because Wood is different from the idiot male lead he imagined before. Not only is he extremely handsome, he also has a good brain. Compared with him, he doesn't seem to have much advantage...
Fortunately, this well-established "tall, rich and handsome" character is now quitting on his own. Although this opportunity to increase Emilia's favorability was snatched away by the other party, Natsuki Ang believes that he will still have a good chance to express himself in the future.
.
After bidding farewell to the protagonists of Natsuki Ang and Emilia, Wood walked on the street, chewing on the apple he just bought while thinking about the next itinerary.
Judging from the Parker and Emilia they met before, this world also has magic, and even has a power called "protection".
If Wood wants this Sims to improve himself, he must master new powers in this world.
And through a short period of exploration, he also discovered the differences in his current body, and what kind of power the so-called "blessing" actually was.
Blessing, in short, is a kind of divine power, that is, a special power given by the world.
People with "blessings" can improve their abilities exponentially in certain aspects, and they are favored by the world.
