Chapter 500 Bad Things Always Happen
"Ah, it's worthy of being a new map produced by the Sean Dungeon. It still has a familiar taste."
In the hunter's dream, Leon lay contentedly among the white flowers, teasing a few little messengers with his fingers.
It took Vann and the others a long time to accept the appearance of the messenger, but as soon as Leon came in, or as soon as he saw the messenger, he exclaimed: "So cute!".
He immediately started to play with it, and his action stunned Isa and the others.
At this moment, besides him lying in the flowers, there were other people busy in the hunter's dream. Malu, Drew, Tel, and the people from the strategy group gathered here to rest. Not only them, but also the Hassawi team was here.
Fingri was now walking around in this not-so-big hunter dream. His handsome features were now squeezed together as if he had swallowed a lemon. His face was full of confusion. If you got close to him, you could hear him mumbling to himself:
"What's going on with the little girl in Yanan? It gives me a sense of déjà vu. It's not good. It's too bad!"
Leon probably knew what he was struggling with.
There were several backpacks placed next to the strategy group and Hassawi's team, which were filled with supplies brought back from the jungle in Yharnam.
In addition to conventional supplies such as blood collection bottles and mercury bullets, some non-light items in the dungeon are actually useful. For example, the clothes worn by the beastmen can be stripped off and worn by yourself, and some houses can be broken into, where you can pick up some food and miscellaneous items.
Two or three days had passed since Leon came here after settling the capital. This was enough time for Leon to explore Yharnam and satisfy his desire to explore that hadn't been seen for a long time.
But it was just to satisfy the desire for exploration. After all, the strength of the monsters that appeared in this area was not enough for them. Even under the authority of the balance of strength, it was difficult for the priest beasts to cause casualties to the strategy team. It was already a great achievement to make them bleed.
Therefore, Leon's greatest pleasure along the way was to observe the various maps and monster distributions in Yharnam. He would smile knowingly when he saw familiar designs, and he would not hide his happiness when he saw new tricks.
For him, exploring the Senn dungeon has changed from a "livelihood" to a "pure personal hobby". Compared with the material wealth that can be gained, he pays more attention to the spiritual enjoyment.
They collected these supplies along the way during their exploration. As for the use of these things, they would naturally not use them themselves, but give them to the people outside the dungeon, that is, the Red people.
So many things happened in the past few days that the bards had good material to adapt and make up stories.
After two days of running wildly, the parasites were confirmed to have disappeared from this land, and people's cries of grief because of the parasites could no longer be heard.
As for what happened to the parasites after entering the dungeon, it was unknown. Leon's intuition told him that these bugs probably would never come out of the dungeon again.
The people of Red, who had been hiding underground for two days to avoid the insect plague, finally emerged again, breathing the air of freedom. They also had time to carry out post-disaster reconstruction. At least so far, several tent camps have been set up and some houses are being repaired, so they can barely be lived in.
A hint of life has finally reappeared in the city of Saviss, and in the future, vigorous vitality will appear on the land of Reed. The only pity is that no one knows how long it will take this country to digest this pain.
It is worth mentioning that the soldiers of the Warrior Kingdom and some infected residents who were rescued by Yufei with all her efforts have recovered after entering the Sen Dungeon. Now they can carry tools and work with everyone. This is really rare good news.
However, after the soldiers of the Warrior Kingdom suffered such a terrible incident, they really had no interest in the land of Reed and just wanted to leave.
It is also worth mentioning that the soldiers had a subtle attitude after learning that Leon and his friends were adventurers from the Kingdom of Anor, but in the end they did not show any negative behavior or emotions. After all, Leon and his friends were their saviors.
But when it was mentioned that the Sen Dungeon could actually connect the Kingdom of Red and the Kingdom of Anor, the people of the Warrior Kingdom showed some, uh, probably unacceptable emotions. At first, Yufei even said that Red should become a vassal state of the Warrior Kingdom.
Which vassal state can connect with the enemy of the suzerain state anytime and anywhere?
Just throw Red to the Kingdom of Anor!
Red people: We have no objection.
Anyway, they will eat the rice no matter whose family it is, so they really have no objection to this matter.
In addition, Leon will go to the Kingdom of Anor through the Sen Dungeon to bring back some supplies to help the people of Red temporarily overcome the difficulties. However, the transmission between Red and the Kingdom of Anor consumes more mental energy, and the supplies he can bring back after several trips back and forth are not much at the beginning.
Later, he reported the matter to Princess Selene and Ainz III, and received a space ring that Selene temporarily lent him. The supplies he could carry finally increased, and he also received support from the royal family.
Ainz III was particularly interested in Yharnam and asked for almost all the props produced there, saying that he wanted to study them carefully.
Before Leon left the palace, he vaguely heard Ainz III, who had received several boxes of blood bottles for the first time in history, say to his servants in high spirits:
"Prepare me the biggest, bigger and biggest fireworks!"
He wouldn't do anything to show off further to the evil god, would he?
Wait, I have a question, why didn’t Leon increase the number of people transporting supplies?
For some reason, very few people can be teleported from the Kingdom of Anor to Reed. It seems that there is some kind of screening condition, and the most intuitive screening condition is strength.
Those who can come over from Anor now must at least meet the requirements to form a team and defeat Aldridge. How many people can come over?
But Leon always felt that the screening standards seemed to have declined in the past two days. It seemed that anyone who could form a team to defeat the phantom of Pope Sullivan could also come here. The evidence was that even Luluwo came here. She failed to find Elsa and has been actively recording first-hand Yharnam strategy information these days.
In short, although fewer people can come from the Kingdom of Anor, there are not many survivors in the city of Saviss. By collecting supplies from the dungeon and having the puppet banquet every night, it is not a problem to eat enough or even eat well. People now just need to be on guard against the beasts and monsters invading the city, and then slowly carry out the reconstruction work.
Adventurers only need to fight monsters, but survivors have a lot more to consider.
"I'm going out for a while." After saying hello to Malu, Leon left Sean and returned to the city of Savis.
People have dug up the basement where the portal is located, allowing the portal to bathe in sunlight. After all, there is no need to live in fear in the basement anymore.
As soon as he came out of the dungeon, he saw Yuffie communicating with the Fran guard Wesker among the busy crowd.
Yuffie seemed to have returned to normal, but in fact, she was under the spell of illusion, which made her look no different from a normal person temporarily. In fact, after the magic was removed, she still looked like a person transformed by the Insect King. She has not found a way to treat it in Yharnam for the time being.
Wesker was sent by Dahl to help. His name sounds like a villain, but he is actually a kind-hearted guy. He also carries magic props used by the Fran guards for communication. However, it seems that his communication props were damaged in the battle of the capital, so they sometimes work and sometimes don't, which makes him a bit difficult to deal with.
"The communication props have been out of order all day. Damn it." Wesker shook his head and sighed.
Yufei saw Leon coming over. The two had become quite familiar with each other in the past few days, so she said directly: "Vann's condition has improved recently."
"Are you awake?"
"Occasionally he would be awake for a while, then he would fall unconscious again. However, each time he was awake, the time he spent awake was getting longer and longer. Although his body still couldn't recover, the magician named Roger said that Vann's body was slowly recovering. Can you tell? I feel no difference at all."
"Roger is an expert in studying monsters, and his research on the human body is probably at a similar level," Leon nodded and said, "I believe his conclusion."
"Really? Then I'll believe him too."
Yuffie shrugged and went on to talk about some recent events in the city of Xavius.
I didn't expect that these new apprentices of my father gave people a pretty good impression. I thought they were the kind of people who were just seeking fame and reputation. Now it seems that I was completely wrong, she thought to herself.
Her current relationship with Gapar is actually a bit twisted and nagging. In fact, she does not hate Gapar, but in order to be self-reliant and untie herself from her father from the public's mouth, and because Gapar forced her to learn spear when she was a child, Yufei does not know what attitude to use towards Gapar, and simply chooses not to meet him.
Thinking about Gapar, Yuffie was distracted and said to himself:
"Fortunately, Dad doesn't know what's going on here and can't make it in time."
"What did you say?" Leon didn't hear clearly.
"Nothing, I just feel lucky that something bad didn't happen." She answered casually.
Unexpectedly, the blond boy's expression changed and he said, "Don't you know that you can't say such things? If you say them, something bad will probably happen, especially since you are using a spear!"
“Dulululu——”
As soon as Leon finished speaking, a strange sound was heard. It turned out that Wesker's communication prop rang. He was quite unique and did not use the wolf howl as a reminder of an incoming letter.
Yu Fei's face froze. She had a bad feeling. Could it be such a coincidence?
"Hello, is this Brother Dahl? I finally got in touch with you!" Wesker said excitedly, "Everything is fine here, don't worry!"
Dahl waited for him to finish before speaking, but his voice was filled with helplessness, lying flat, lamentation, and a little bit of anxiety. He said:
"I met Mr. Gapal."
"ah!"
This was not Wesker's cry, but Yuffie's strange cry. Passersby stopped and looked at her strangely.
She no longer cared about her image and asked hurriedly, "What's going on? How did he get here? Is he still in the capital? Don't tell him I'm here!"
There was a sudden silence on Dal's side, and he seemed to be able to hear some people whispering.
"Hello? Can you hear me?" Yu Fei was anxious.
The communication prop became unstable again, and before it failed, Dahl's voice finally came through.
"It's too late. The teacher has already left."
Yuffie's face became dull.
"It's probably time now."
Her eyes suddenly lost their luster.
“Sizzle——”
The communication tool failed again, and Yuffie also fell into silence.
Wesker picked up a branch from the ground and poked her, saying, "Wow, it's as hard as a sculpture."
"Nonsense, I'm just bones!"
Yufei grabbed the branch and broke it off, then turned around and hurried towards the portal.
"Where are you going?" Leon chased after him.
"What else am I doing? I absolutely cannot let my dad see me like this!" She scratched her hair in annoyance. "If he really comes, just tell him any excuse you want, whether I'm cleaning up monsters, traveling around, or jumping into the sea to find a pineapple, whatever you say!"
"Hiding is not a good idea. What if the teacher has a way——"
"Hiss, I really don't want to meet you!"
Yufei walked resolutely to the portal and was about to enter when suddenly a hunter swung his axe towards her!
"Bang--"
She naturally dodged sideways, and the person who attacked her also came out of the portal. He was a local hunter from Xavius!
The other party had an unnatural smile on his face and was covered in blood. It was obvious at first glance that he was another guy who had become mentally ill due to excessive hunting. Recently, as the parasite crisis has been resolved, some local hunters have relaxed their tense minds and their resistance to hunting addiction has actually decreased. In the past few days, we have been seeing such idiots going crazy, and they usually recover after a beating.
Yu Fei was already in an impatient mood, and now that there was a sandbag delivered to her door, she naturally would not let it go.
Only a few howling sounds were heard, and the mad hunter was beaten so hard that he couldn't fight back. Leon gasped and watched over him, trying to prevent the hunter from being seriously injured.
When it was almost over, Yuffie got angry and the illusion magic on her body was automatically lifted, revealing her original form that could stop children from crying at night. She threw the knocked out hunter to the doctor next to her and walked towards Leon to ask for a Happy Egg.
People kept their distance from the scene here, looking as if they were frightened, but in fact they had become accustomed to it.
Naturally, Leon also searched his pockets and fumbled in his clothes, as if he couldn't find a weapon when facing a monster.
In such an occasion full of visual confusion, an "uninvited guest" arrived.
"Leon. What are you doing!?"
The sudden roar startled Leon, who was searching for the Happy Egg, and he looked up in disbelief and shouted:
"Gappal-sensei!?"
"I never taught you to be so slow in facing monsters."
The person who came was none other than the dusty swordsman Japar!
After not seeing him for many days, he still looks so energetic!
While he was teaching Leon a lesson, he retracted his raised foot. Wait, why did he retract his foot?
Leon's eyelids jumped suddenly and he quickly turned his head to look over.
Yufei disappeared from the spot, and the dilapidated building that was about to be demolished not far away collapsed with a loud noise, as if it had been hit by a cannonball.
"It's over." He couldn't help but cover his face.
Japar kicked Yuffie out.
"That monster looks very powerful, but that's no reason for you to be distracted." Japar looked covered in dust, and it was obvious that he had been running all the way here at high speed. His face looked a little tired. "Where's Yufei? I'll go deal with the monster, you call her over."
Then, Gapar saw Leon tremblingly stretch out a finger, pointing in the direction of the humanoid monster he had just kicked away, and lowered his head in silence.
What's the meaning?
Gapar was stunned for a rare moment. He looked at Leon's gesture and recalled the feeling of kicking the monster just now. It felt very familiar.
His expression suddenly froze, and he suddenly realized what his apprentice wanted to say.
On the other side, Yufei jumped up silently and ran into the portal quickly.
"No, Yuffie, wait!"
