Gold coin is justice

Chapter 68 There is more than one way to solve a task

Cream tilted his head for a moment and said, "Maybe... be attacked? First throw oil with a catapult, and then hit the surface of the castle with a flame catapult?"

Airo shook his head after all: "The geographical location of Neuschwanstein Castle is that it can only be used to supervise the mines, and there is no war at all. Moreover, this is the border of the empire, and in the past it is a mountain of Everest. , Who will come here to attack?... Could this be an arson inside?"

Coco on the side was shocked: "Arson? Has anyone burned this castle? Who?"

Ai Luo shook his head: "I don't know, but the fire must have been very big at the time. And the arsonist must have been carefully planned and must envelop the entire castle in flames."

Brad: "President, even if it was, it was hundreds of years ago, right?"

Ai Luo: "Um... that's right, it's an arson case hundreds of years ago, and it's not even an old case. Cream, keep talking."

Cream nodded, then pointed to a few points of the castle and said: "There are generally three ways to enter the castle, here, here and here. But I don't know why, the two entrances and exits on this side are blocked by huge rocks. , And it has been blocked for a long time. It is probably the same period as the arson? I still think it should be a war. Someone deliberately sealed the entrance and exit of the castle with stones and set it on fire, just to prevent people from escaping. ."

Ai Luo didn't reply, just continued to listen while thinking.

"Then, it's about the two fighters."

At this point, Cream's tone is a little more solemn, and Airo can hear it from this tone, and it does not seem to be good news—

"On the mud in front of the only entrance, I found a few footprints. The weather during the two days was very dry, there was no wind, and there was no rain, so the footprints are well preserved. But these footprints seem a bit deep , It looks like they should have stepped on it at night when there was a lot of dew. Therefore, I guess they entered the castle at night."

"Then...I didn't see any footprints coming out of it. Of course, I also hope that the two fighters came out during the day and left on the grassy ground, so no footprints were left. Um... …I can only hope so."

It really looks like a lot of bad luck...

Emotionally speaking, Ai Luo really hoped that the two fighters could leave safely.At least I don't have to be the last person to see them two.From a rational point of view, they were able to leave safely, which meant that this commission was just a misunderstanding. They just sent the cream out for a day and took a few more steps. Everything was safe.

However, judging from the current situation, this situation is really not so good.

"In addition, I also discovered something about the monsters that live inside."

Following Cream's last remarks, Ai Luo raised his head after all and exhaled helplessly.

With that, Cream took out a drawing again and opened it.His painting skills are worse than Airo, but at least he expresses clearly.

It was in the form of a spider, but a green insect-like monster.This kind of thing Airo had seen in the museum's illustrated book, because of its terrifying appearance and brutal personality, it made Airo remember deeply.

"I tried to go into the castle and explore it, but I walked out less than ten meters away, and the sun outside couldn't shine inside at all. It was like the night, and I couldn't see my fingers. But soon I noticed it. Something came to me, I quickly turned around and ran, and rushed out of the castle for the first time. When I turned my head to look, I found this green spider, almost bigger than me, was facing me My teeth and dancing claws. At that time, I was planning to use the shadow ring to escape, but I didn't expect this spider to retreat after touching the sun. It seems that I really don't like light."

"That's a poisonous spider."

After Cream finished all his investigation information, Airo finally came to his own conclusion.

He looked at the drawings, then at the topographical map of the castle, sighed with regret, and said--

"I have seen this kind of monster in the Museum Illustrated Book, but the record of it is not very detailed. I can only say that it is a huge alienation, and the venom secreted in the body can be used in a very short time. A cow has completely corroded into a pool of thick water monsters."

Airo pinched his chin and thought about it for a while and continued: "There are not many records in other aspects. It is not even written in the illustration that this spider likes dark and narrow passages, let alone afraid of the sun. But it is not necessarily, maybe. Is this another spider monster? Well, it can only be inferred from this state now."

Cream exhaled, he straightened up and looked at Airo with a serious face: "President, are we really going to explore this ancient castle? Do you think we have the ability to solve this spider? No, In my experience, since there are spiders at the gate, there may be more spiders inside the castle. Do you think our guild is strong enough to challenge the work of five gold coins?"

Cream is not alarmist.

Airo glanced at Coco, Brad, and Buffy beside him.Finally, look at the cream.

In general, the strength of the own guild is still quite weak. If those spiders are really poisonous spiders in the literature, does the own guild go in to get money?Or to die?This may be impossible.

He frowned and thought, trying to search the depths of his memory to see if there was any place in the illustrated book detailing the weakness of this spider...

It's a pity, really not.

At this time, he felt a little helpless. Originally thought that the school library was quite complete, but now it seems that there is more than a little missing.

"Then let me summarize it first."

It’s not good not to speak at such a stalemate. Airo gave a slight cough and said--

"To explore this castle, we now came across the poisonous spiders entrenched in it. Insect monsters usually live in groups, so it is conceivable that there must be a large number of poisonous spiders in this castle. Therefore, in front of us The following four questions also appeared."

"First, poisonous poisonous spider venom. As long as one bite by this kind of spider, if you don’t inject a special antidote immediately, you will have to wait for death. And special antidote... It’s a pity that we don’t have it now A sample of poisonous spider venom cannot be made. And our magician has not yet been able to learn this knowledge."

As Ai Luo said, he glanced at Napa, who was lying on his stomach. The cat was still lying on the cushion so comfortably, revealing his belly, snoring.

"The second is the lighting problem. Through the early exploration of the cream, we at least know that these spiders hate light. But this does not mean that they have any fear of the sun. It should be said that they prefer to stay in dark places. It is more correct. If we really want to explore this castle, we must prepare enough light sources, but if our light sources are adequately prepared, and these spiders temporarily retreat from meeting us, then we can’t wipe them out. Therefore, we might have to Fight against them in a dark environment."

"Third, spider webs. The spider silks of the poisonous spiders are very sticky. It is still unclear about the internal structure of the castle. If we rush in, we are likely to fall into the spider silk trap. Then we will Being unable to move, this situation is simply waiting for death."

"Then, it's the last item. Our level of strength may not be enough to kill the Rot Spiders all the way. One or two, we may still be able to find a way. But if we are facing a whole castle of Rot Spiders , If you really break in directly, then let's wait for death."

Airo’s analysis is stellar, but the more you listen, the more gloomy the expressions on the faces of his guild members.

is not it?It is natural for anyone to show a timid look on his face when facing an opponent who cannot be challenged.The reason why the previous tasks can be completed is really because the goddess of luck is really favoring the song of the mermaid, it is not that these guys have reached this level of strength.

"Then...what shall we do? We will not do this task?"

Coco looked a little helpless, and his eyes were all giving up.

Ai Luo nodded, completely agreeing with Coco's judgment: "Of course, if we really want to enter the castle and kill all the way, clearing all the rotting spiders and the spider web traps in it, this requirement is too high. Don’t forget, we’re adventurers, not dead men. The kind of squad that enters from the bottom and defeats enemies that are many times higher than ourselves without any loss, and finally can complete the task smoothly. According to the legend, the reality is that all of us adventurers must see our own state clearly, and we can’t venture forward, understand?”

Coco nodded and sighed.

Brad shrugged his shoulders now, coming forward to clean up the drawings on the table.

But the moment he stretched out his hand, Cream slammed the drawings, turned his head, and looked at his president with a sneer expression--

"President Airo, although I haven't known you for a long time. But...I'm pretty sure that you are a man who only knows to squeeze his employees, and then he is full of money. You can do all kinds of crooked thoughts for money. The head of the profiteer merchant with a horrible idea. Want you to give up these five gold coins? Ha ha, this is not like your style."

Airo, smiled.

He laughed because there was finally a person in his guild who had a little brain, so that he could at least not be so tired.But in other words, this kind of guild members who are too mindful and always have their own careful thoughts also need to be strictly managed by themselves.

"Hehe, that's right. Of course, we are not the opponents of these rotting spiders in a head-on confrontation. The four points I mentioned earlier are all dilemmas that we may encounter after entering the castle. Then..."

"We, don't enter the castle, can't we do it?"

All the members were shocked by Airo's proposal, including cream.

Brad rubbed the back of his head: "Don't enter the castle? How do we solve the monster problem in the castle without entering the castle?"

With a ding sound, a gold coin flicked into the air with Airo's finger.

He stretched out his hand, squeezed the gold coin shining in midair firmly in his palm, and showed it to all the members of his guild——

"Use money."

"The adventurer's adventurous strength, in general, is the strength of the guild's logistics support. As long as you can spend enough money, there is no task in this world that can't be completed. Haha, of course, pay attention to the cost. "

This made everyone unable to understand even more. Buffy flew over and stared at this shiny gold coin for a long time, and said with a confused look: "Gold coin? What? Smash it?"

Ai Luo put away the gold coins and said to everyone: "Let’s take a break today. From tomorrow, we will go out to find some townspeople and hire them to join us to chop wood in Shining Forest. Chop more. After winter, spring also More small tree buds can grow out. Later..."

"Let's go to burn the castle of Neuschwanstein again."
