Chapter 140: Can I Touch Your Thing?
Translator: Lonelytree
It was a pity that the southernmost part of the area covered by Assia’s divine power had not reached Marsh City yet.
A high-level Blessed creature like Ella could return to the Moonlight Woodlands under the moonlight from any location in the prime material plane, but that didn’t mean that she could return at will. Without a shrine or altar as an anchor point, returning to the Moonlight Woodlands under the moonlight was destined to be a one-way ticket.
Matthew seriously considered the feasibility of building a shrine in Condor City.
The geographical location of Condor City was actually very advantageous.
It was the central section of the north shore of the Gold Coast. Whether it was on the sea or on land, the flow of people was very large.
At the same time, it was located in the middle of the four terrains.
To the north were the mountains. The mountains were Mount Elgaoxiong and the Millennium Mountain Range. The latter was a natural barrier that stretched for nearly a thousand miles, dividing the vast land in the south into two parts.
The Millennium Mountains were a dangerous place that many high-level adventurers hated. In addition to the terrifying and dangerous terrain, the mountains were also unevenly distributed with the habitat of Eagle Men, Air Elementals, Mountain Giants, Green-footed Dragon Snakes, Salamander Men, Specters, and Red-robed Monsters. It was said that there were also traces of Liches and Twilight Creatures. In short, it was very dangerous.
To the south was the sea, and the sea was the Arunay Sea. The port of Condor City was very large, and it was very suitable for doing business with the Naga, the overlord of the deep sea.
To the east was the rainforest, the Jango world;
To the west was the endless Poplar Desert, where there were many oases. These oases fed 99% of the desert population. The merchants of Condor City were willing to go to the oases to do business, but later, someone claimed that there was an adult blue dragon living in the Poplar Desert who liked to rob people.
Gradually, the trade route that traversed the desert and connected to the oasis became deserted.
There was no need to mention the main road that ran from east to west along the coastline. The geographical superiority of Condor City was obvious.
“When Ella comes back from her long break in the Moonlight Woodlands, I’ll ask her about the method of building an altar!” Matthew secretly made up his mind.
His thoughts were set.
While the Hobgoblin Lady Boss was packing the goods, Matthew casually asked, ”
“Are you knitting sweaters for your family? However, the weather in Condor
City was so hot. Who would wear a sweater here?”
The other party smiled and replied,
‘ My son, Quint, is the vanguard of the Black Dragon Lord in the Extreme Frost City in the north. I haven’t seen him for many years. This year, I received a letter from him saying that he has a child. My husband and I plan to save some money so that we can visit them.
“I knitted this sweater for my grandson, whom I haven’t met yet. For this reason, I specially learned some exquisite skills from the Su people next door.”
Matthew took the packaged box. After confirming that there was no mistake, he said goodbye to the lady boss and left.
It could be seen that the hobgoblins had lived in human society for a long time and had basically been assimilated. They also cherished the things that humans cherished, and the customs of humans gradually became their customs.
When dealing with them, one could indeed ignore their race to a certain extent.
They left the shop.
Lumi&re followed at once.
Lumiere had been thinking of an excuse since last night.
Now, his thoughts were finally clear. He decided to stay by Matthew’s side first. After gaining his trust, he would think of a way to lure him back to the rainforest without disturbing him.
So he said to Matthew, “Ever since I advanced, my path of Legend has been opened.
‘My instincts told me that it was outside the rainforest, so I left the rainforest.
“It’s just that I’m too unfamiliar with the outside world. Coincidentally, your scent left a deep impression on me, so I unknowingly came over to find you.
“I actually didn’t know what to do next. I was full of curiosity and fear towards the outside world. Perhaps this was the adaptation period for me.
“Matthew, if it’s possible, can I stay by your side during this time? “Don’t worry, I won’t freeload. I’m very capable. I’ll do anything you want.” Matthew looked regretful after hearing this.
“So that’s how it is? Lumiere, I’m happy to help you. Unfortunately, I’m afraid I won’t be able to travel with you for the time being.”
Lumiere asked in shock, ” Why?!”
Matthew said regretfully, “Because I’m about to enter the rainforest, and your legendary path is outside the rainforest. I’m afraid we’ll have to go our separate ways.”
He then walked towards the hotel.
Lumiere was left alone, dumbfounded.
Back in the guest room, Matthew smelled a burning smell.
He looked down and saw Shortie sitting on the floor, playing with a brick meticulously.
“Where did you get the brick?”
Matthew asked curiously.
It’s best not to distract an Arcane Machinist when they are injecting the item so as to avoid creating an explosion tragedy.”
Bobo didn’t even raise her head, and her tone was icy cold.
After a while.
Matthew saw that the brick began to emit red light crazily. His eyelids twitched, and he was about to retreat. Fortunately, the red light disappeared in an instant, but there was an additional irritable smell inside the brick.
[Hint: Your Machinist partner Bobo has successfully created a brick bomb!]
Matthew’s expression changed.
“Are you making a bomb?”
Bobo snorted softly, “What do you think?
I can’t possibly go out on an adventure with a bomb on my back. That would be too insecure.. How can an Arcane Machinist go out so perfunctorily?”
