Chapter 67: Im not going
In fact, Robb can purify more than a thousand skeletons. Even then, for the grinding emperor, using purification magic a thousand times is nothing.
But he doesnt really have a reason to do so!
His grade and proficiency are also maxed. What's the point of using purification magic a thousand times like a son of a bitch here?
No gain, no experience, no proficiency; these skeletons won't drop money or artifacts either.
And this area is not his real estate either; even if it becomes a wasteland, it has nothing to do with him. He really doesnt want to meddle here, so hell just let the templar knights deal with it.
Lets go! Time to return. We should be able to walk through these skeletons easily. Robb smiled at the crowd and said.
Gorda put the bag containing the spider on his right shoulder, held his shield in his left hand, and walked slowly out of the Holy Light Sanctuary.
As soon as he went out, a skeleton soldier very close to him rushed over and waved its rusty sword.
Gorda waved the shield in his hand, which slammed and hit the skeleton soldier, causing it to fly far away and fall apart, but its broken bones soon came together to form the skeleton soldier again.
However, after it stood up again, it did not pounce on Gorda because he was out of its range.
Everyone found that this large group of skeletons had not acted together as before but had become scattered sand, and only the skeletons close to Gorda would attack him. In contrast, the skeletons in the distance remained wandering pointlessly.
The Baron rejoiced, "Sure enough, it's easy to leave now. Mr. Golda, please find out what their range for attack is, and afterward, we can easily go out.
Gorda nodded, raised his shield, and approached a skeleton soldier not that far away.
20 yards, no response, 10 yards, still no response, but when Gorda walked within five yards, the skeleton soldier suddenly woke up and pounced on Gorda with its knife.
With a wave of his shield, Gorda knocked the skeleton soldier out of its range of five yards, and the skeleton soldier immediately wandered blankly again.
The Baron ordered, Attention! Snake formation! We are piercing through the southwest of the skeleton army. Pay attention to the distance of the skeleton soldiers and do not get within 5 yards of it. If a skeleton soldier enters the range of five yards, blow it out immediately."
The soldiers answered in unison, "Yes, sir!"
The three adventurers cut open the way, and the soldiers walked behind with Baron, Little Yi, and Robb, walking cautiously through the army of skeletons; more than a thousand skeletons huddled in the narrow valley made it hard to avoid their 5-yard range. Fortunately, the skeletons that were more than 5 yards away would not come to help, so what they always had to face was only a handful of skeletons.
Under such circumstances, it is really not that to get out of the siege.
Effortlessly, everyone walked out of the valley, away from the area that had been occupied by skeletons.
"In this way, the reconnaissance mission will be perfectly completed. We not only completed the reconnaissance but also defeated the necromancer. When I get back, the Great Duke will surely reward me." The Baron said, happy to everyone, "Thank you, adventurers. And of course, most importantly, thank you, Mr. Robb."
The three adventurers said with a smile, "Don't thank us, we are here for the money."
Robb also said, "Do not thank me, serving the people is my motivation to live." (solemn face)
The Baron was moved, "Father is really the kindest and most warm-hearted person I have ever met. I should have given father a great gift, but I didnt bring anything with me on this expedition. I'll send someone to deliver it to you when I return.
Robb smiled and said, "you don't have to be so polite!"
The Baron said, Before I went out, I brought a scroll that can teleport to the Bright Road. I can open a portal that supports two hundred people. Will you come with me? Ill take care of you.
Im not going. Robb is now focused on the four spiders he has caught and will go home to make silk stockings right away. Where is there any time to go to the Bright Road and take ten or even dozens of days to go home? Isn't that a son of a bitch?
He spread his hand and said, "the townspeople of Westwind Town are often injured. I am very worried about their safety. I must go back and guard them and be ready to treat them at any time. I appreciate the kindness, Baron. (solemn face)
The Baron sighed, "you are such a good priest."
Robb said, "I'm flattered. But Im not as good as you make me out to be."
Little Yi handed the man-eating spider on her back to Robb, "I will also return to the Bright Road with the Baron to report what I have seen this time to the bishop of the Church of Light and ask the Templar Knights to purify the skeletons here. This is where we say goodbye, father."
Robb smiled, "Don't say too much about me, okay?"
After hearing this, Little Yi moved slightly and thought to herself, "is this a hint that I can't reveal his identity? Also, if he is really a heretic judger, then I can't tell too many people about him, so I'll talk to the archbishop in private."
Finally, there are the three adventurers, each of whom is now carrying a bag containing a man-eating spider.
Golda said with a smile to the Baron, "We won't go to Bright Road. Unruly adventurers like us are not suitable to go to places full of big shots. We may offend someone because of our free and loose style. Haha. We'll help Robb send the spiders back to Westwind before we consider our next destination."
The Baron thought about it carefully, and so he thought of something. He took out his purse and counted thirty gold coins, and gave them to Gorda. He smiled and said, "the agreed number is 21, but this time I have accomplished the task more than expected, so I will give you 30 pieces, which is better."
Gorda laughed, This is why I love berserkers! If youre a magician, youll haggle with me a lot. You know magicians like haggling over things.
Xuelu shouted, Hey! What do you mean by that? Do you despise us magicians? Do you want to eat a fireball or two?
Golda quickly waved, "No, I'm just kidding. I have absolutely no intention of looking down on magicians. Ouch, stop Don't chant. Stop it quick."
