BXBX NOVEL Chapter 53
In the backyard of charcoal hotel.
There was a hubbub of voices.
The lute’s elegant and clear tone, accompanied by the crackling sounds of the bonfire and the sizzling sounds of roasted meat, seemed to carry a hint of both salty and mild smoke.
Barrels of beer were carried out of the wine cellar by the waiters.
People in different clothes cheered and celebrated this rare night.
In the corner.
Next to a single barbeque rack.
A large piece of beef and a whole lamb rib were being rolled around.
Roger skillfully spread honey and sauce on the ingredients.
The sound of swallowing came from the side.
“I think it’s ready to eat.”
Rachel looked around for a while and muttered in a low voice with a serious expression.
“Here, eat this first.”
Roger didn’t make things difficult for the hungry Girl and handed her a sausage.
Rachel bit off half of it in one bite.
The sweet and greasy yellow juice splashed out and onto her face. The girl quickly stuck out her tongue and licked it clean.
After finishing the whole sausage, Rachel looked at the Lamb chop with eager eyes.
Roger smiled and gently advised, ”
“Let’s wait a little longer,”
“It’s just been put on the shelf.”
Rachel’s cheeks puffed up slightly, but she still nodded seriously.
In the backyard, the Bard holding his lute raised his hand.
The tune suddenly changed from melodious to cheerful.
Some people dressed as adventurers whistled, and some people began to dance.
Even Roger couldn’t help but speed up his movements.
Everything seemed to be so cheerful.
As if sensing the change in Roger’s mood, Rachel took the initiative and said, ”
“Paramount Manor is a good place.”
Roger nodded.
He had already felt it.
“Can you tell me the story of paramount Manor?”
“And the Lord that everyone is praising.”
Roger asked in a low voice.
Rachel looked at the white and red lamb chop and said with a straight face, ”
“I’ll try then.”
In the girl’s unique straightforward narration, Roger had a general understanding of this land.
..
Paramount Manor was made up of more than 20 farms and ” dawn town.
The Lord’s name was Dorian. Dominica was recognized as a hero by the locals.
From the perspective of a threat to survival.
The abundance of magic here was similar to that of tongma town. It was a rare magic depression in Mystra, which meant that there were relatively fewer monsters and a habitable land.
At the same time, it also meant that this place could feed more people.
From a geographical point of view.
The south side of the manor was only separated from Jewel City by a River.
The North was bordered by the sparsely populated marshlands.
In the Northwest was a mountain range that was rarely visited by humans.
The east side was the bustling ” Knights Avenue “.
All the adventurers from the North had gathered here.
They needed to cross the bridge over the sela River to get to Jewel City.
This created an essential condition for the prosperity of the manor.
..
“In short, everything is good here.”
After gnawing on a piece of lamb chop, Rachel licked the honey off her fingers seriously and then continued, ”
...
“Except for ‘Johnny turtle’.”
“Johnny turtle?”
Roger took a sip of the hotel’s homemade tree bubble drink and couldn’t help burping a few times.
a very troublesome monster. You’ll easily encounter it.
Rachel grabbed another piece of lamb chop and started to gnaw on it.
Roger laughed and asked casually, ”
“Since this place is so good, why not consider settling down here?”
Rachel replied vaguely, ”
“If I settle down here, what about the adventurers who pass by yellow stone Island?”
“There’s no one to pick them up,”
Roger had an idea.
...
“Are you planning to stay on Yellow Rock Island forever?”
Rachel acknowledged him with an ” uh-huh “.
Roger was a little surprised. He thought Rachel would leave with Cindy and the others.
“That’s my home.”
The young girl finally opened her mouth to speak.
Roger nodded slightly and put down his utensils.
The atmosphere in the courtyard became even more lively.
It seemed like a young man had proposed to his childhood sweetheart.
The crowd laughed and cheered, surrounding the two of them.
Listening to the descriptions of others.
The girl with a red face was the niece of the owner of charcoal hotel.
The young man was the second son of Tiger farm’s owner.
He had just passed the Knight certification assessment of dawn town a few days ago, and his future was bright.
The two of them finally hugged each other and kissed deeply.
The atmosphere had reached its climax.
“I’m full.”
Rachel looked at the lively crowd without any expression, and her hands couldn’t help but rub her bulging belly.
After a while.
She looked at Roger with her bright eyes and said, ”
“You are the first adventurer to treat me to barbecue.”
“Thank you,” she said.
Roger stood up and smiled.
“You’re welcome,”
..
Late at night. In the hotel room.
After putting the huge Crucible on the bed, Roger began to move things out one by one.
He had been hurrying on his journey these days.
It was only at this point that he had the opportunity to check the remaining spoils.
Compared to the other swampland refugees, humphran was simply rich.
Roger found three gold plates, 135 silver coins, and a large number of bronze tokens in his bedroom.
According to the conversion rate of one gold plate to 10000 copper coins ...
Roger was now considered a wealthy class among the adventurers.
However, money was only the tip of the iceberg of humphran’s wealth.
Roger had found a lot of equipment and items in the big house.
After careful selection.
He took away two rings, a set of heavy armor, a belt, three books, a bundle of ” forbidden item identification scrolls “, and some other scattered items.
These spoils of war occupied most of the storage bag in the crucible, which made Roger sigh, ” as expected, there’s not enough space for a backpack no matter how many slots there are.
The first was the two rings.
Even in the dim candlelight, Roger could clearly see the simple arcane runes on the ring.
..
[heavenly Palace ring (Set 1/6)]
Rating: SS ”
[attribute: charm +1]
[special effect: all damage received is reduced by 4%]
..
[scaramala ring]
Rating: SS ”
[ attribute: intelligence +1 ]
[ enchantment: summon Viper ]
[ summon venomous snake: Level 2 spell. You can summon a large number of venomous snakes in a designated area to attack your enemies. The type and grade of the venomous snakes depends on your intelligence. ]
..
They were all top-grade rings.
In Roger’s opinion, no matter what their special effects and enchantment effects were, as long as it was an equipment that directly added attributes, it could be directly pushed into the S+ threshold.
Not to mention, the effects of both were not bad.
Although both of them used Mystra’s ninth spell to activate it, the ” scamala ring ” was much more reliable than the suicide magic ring.
Not only could he repeatedly summon the venomous snake, but he also didn’t have to worry about it backfiring on him.
The charging time for enchantment was half an hour.
This meant that Roger could play with snakes whenever he wanted.
And the effect of the “immortal Palace ring” was even more amazing.
“The all-round damage reduction is too overbearing.”
after collecting all six pieces of the celestial Palace set, I can even obtain a 40% overall damage reduction.
“I just don’t know where to find the rest of the parts.”
Roger put on the two rings without saying anything.
One on the left and one on the right.
Next was the thick belt.
..
[ Macho man’s belt (leather product) ]
[ rating: S+]
[ attributes: your physical and mental energy recovery speed +10% ]
