Chapter 4 The Value of the Book of Return to the City

After Pedro's introduction, Chen Hao slowly understood the other party's situation.

Pedro is a level six paladin, Wenger is also a paladin, but he is only level five. Cartman is a level four magician, Kasha is a level five magician, and the last taciturn Parker in the team is a level two assassin.

"Chen Hao...it sounds like an oriental name." Pedro smacked his lips.

"Yes, my hometown is a swamp east of Ure. When I was very young, I took a long boat trip with my fathers. But a few days ago, I encountered a shipwreck and I dispersed, and in the end I was the only one who was washed to King's Port." Chen Hao, who is familiar with the geography of the shelter, said nonsense.

"You are so lucky to survive the disaster," Kasha praised.

The birthplace of Necromancers is the swamp, which is located on the easternmost side of the shelter, and the port of Kings Port is the west continent. During this period, we have to pass through the Sea of ​​Light and the Gemini Sea, probably across the entire shelter.

It is indeed not easy for Chen Hao to appear on the Western Continent from this road.

"Hao, I want to ask about something. Have you seen other teams besides us?" Pedro went straight to the topic. "This time we went out to take the risk, not only to bring Parker to upgrade, but also to find Kevin's team's mission."

"Kevin and his teammates have been missing for almost two weeks. They were originally coming to the Blood Wasteland to carry out a very simple exploration mission. Captain Kevin also owns the book of Return to the City at Roger Camp, but no one has come back yet."

"Monster Akara predicted that something might have happened to them, so he sent three teams to find them."

"Kevin's team is not bad, and it has the means to save lives. If they can all be wiped out in the blood wasteland, it means that Roger's camp is also in danger. So no matter what, we have to find them, live to see people, die to see corpses!"

Seeing the seriousness on Pedro's face, Chen Hao shook his head.

"I don't know Kevin you mentioned, but I found a body on the way, and his name seems to be Kay...Kate!"

"Kate? Are you sure it's Kate?" Hearing this name, Cartman in the crowd suddenly jumped up.

The mage suddenly stepped forward and grabbed Chen Hao's collar: "Kate is Kevin's younger brother. This time he came out with his brother to upgrade. You said you have seen his body, where is it?"

The neck was hurt by the other party. Chen Hao finally broke free from Cartman's hands and coughed a few times: "It's in the thatched hut over there, this wooden stick was found in his hand."

"Thatouille hut? Didn't you burn it?" Cartman looked anxious, "Is there anything else?"

"Other things? There are." Chen Hao turned his fingers, "I also found a pair of flints, 3 bottles of slight mana potion, a book back to the city and a letter to Akara."

"Where is the book back to the city?"

"What letter?"

Cartman and Kasha said in unison.

Hearing Cartman's questioning, Pedro frowned: "Cartman, according to the rules of the shelter, whoever finds the body in the wild will belong to the discoverer. What are you asking about this?"

"Yes, Cartman, since Kate is dead, Kevin and his team are in danger! In this way, we must understand what is going on." Kasha continued, "Hao, what exactly is written in that letter?"

Chen Hao looked at Cartman with anger, then looked at Casa and Pedro who looked concerned, took out the parchment from the storage space and said, "Here, that's it."

"This... this is a life letter, only the recipient can check it." After fiddling with it, Pedro returned the envelope directly. "Hao, since you discovered this letter, it would be better for you to hand it over to monk Akara in person. A new necromancer came to the camp, and I think she would be very happy."

"Uh... can you ask what is a letter of life?" Chen Hao asked humbly.

"Life letters are letters written by the writer for his life. Every word here consumes the writer's life. If others want to forcefully crack it, they must consume a hundred times their life. No one knows how much life Kate consumes this letter, so I dare not crack it rashly."

"So that's how it is." Chen Hao nodded, it seemed that the sheltered place maintained the privacy of letters well.

"Since that's the case, let's go back to the camp quickly! Perhaps Lord Akara will tell us what happened." Pedro said in a deep voice.

"Well, then we'll set off tomorrow morning."

Before dark, Chen Hao followed the team to find a low wall.

This place is very close to Rogue's camp, so after Pedro inspected it, he did not even stay at night watchmen and directly announced the camp.

6 people, three tents.

Chen Hao never dreamed that he could sleep in the same room with a beautiful woman in less than a day after traveling through time!

Looking at Kasha's graceful figure under the sleeping bag, Chen Hao kept swallowing.

Good guy, definitely 36D!

"Hao, don't be so cramped. Everyone is adventurer. It's time to help each other in the wild." Kasha shook her long brown hair and crawled on the pillow with both hands. "Tell me about your experience. It's absolutely incredible to survive the shipwreck."

"Uh... it's not really incredible. Our ship encountered a storm. In a panic, I held a piece of wood chip and washed ashore. Seeing that I had no money, the residents of Kings Port told me that the Roger camp in the East was summoning adventurers. So I'll try my luck."

Chen Hao spread his hands, he couldn't tell this fierce beauty the story of One Piece!

"The people of Kings Harbor are right, the entire Westma adventurers are rushing towards Roger's camp." Kasha nodded.

"Oh? What happened?" Chen Hao took the opportunity to inquire.

"That's right, half a year ago, the monastery was attacked by a group of demons. Monk Akara and Lord Kasha escaped with the remaining soldiers and established the Rog Camp."

"Now the monastery is occupied by demons, and the demon's sphere of influence is constantly expanding. Monk Akara is calling on Westma's adventurers to defeat the demons together and reopen the road to the east."

"Oh, so that's it." Chen Hao nodded, probably getting to know the timeline.

Just when Chen Hao wanted to ask further, he heard a complaint from the tent next door.

"Wenger, why do you think the boss always trusts people so easily?"

"The Necromancers are all evil guys. Maybe he has been corrupt and degenerate long ago!"

"Who knows where this strange necromancer came from? What if he was a spy sent by a wizard?"

"Maybe Kevin's team was defeated because of him!"

The sound insulation effect of the convertible is not very good, and Cartman's complaints have no intention of avoiding people's eyes.

Kasha looked at Chen Hao with an awkward look, "Uh... Sorry, Cartman is just a little nervous. Please don't take his words to heart."

"It's okay, it's okay." Chen Hao nodded on the surface, but he played back what happened during the day in his mind.

Chen Hao's heart was thrilled when he recalled that when Cartman didn't care about Kevin's life or death, he cared about the book back to the city.

"Kasha, I have something I want to ask you."

"What?" Kasha turned her head and stared at Chen Hao with big blue eyes.

"Uh...Why do we have to hurry back? Can't we use the return scroll?"

Kasha laughed "Puchi" and said, "Hao, you are really ignorant of the world."

"What's the meaning?"

"The scroll back to the city is very expensive. One piece costs 100 gold coins. The scroll back to the city in both directions is even more expensive, and even 500 gold coins! We are just an ordinary adventure team, and the search range is only in the blood wasteland and the cold land, so there is no need for that!"

Oh, it turns out to be saving money!

Chen Hao nodded and asked tentatively: "Since the scroll back to the city is so expensive, what is the price of the book back to the city?"

"Return to the City Book?" Kasha blinked and stared at Chen Hao seriously and said, "Return to the City Book is priceless in Roger Camp. The transaction volume of the last auction was 5,000 gold coins, which is the one in your hands."

"What? A book back to the city is so expensive!?" Chen Hao was startled.

"Of course!" Kasha smiled, "The Book of Returning to the City is an extremely rare magic prop, which is only owned by large families and advanced adventurers. Moreover, its function is not only to store the Returning to the City scroll, but also has other wonderful uses."

"But you don't have to worry, the rules of the shelter are who is the first to discover the body and whose relics are. Even Kevin's uncle cannot forcefully take it away, otherwise he will be despised by all our adventurers."

After hearing Kasha's explanation, Chen Hao nodded and retracted into his sleeping bag.
