The fisherman druid is in another world
Chapter 480
Chapter 480
Before daybreak, Hei Luobo had already left Olde on a steam train.
At the same time, Monster started a PY transaction with Atwood.
Although Atwood is dominated by the parasite at this moment, the parasite's personality is based on Atwood's memory information after all, and even needs to be bound to his true spirit.
This parasite has the smooth side of Atwood himself.
Atwood is a good social survivor. He started from scratch and is flexible. The difficulties he faced back then were much more difficult than today.
Now at least he can lose both...
At this moment, he has severed his spiritual connection with Hei Luobo and completely entered the free play mode.
Faced with the monster's coercion, Atwood did not complain or blame Black Rob for causing the disaster, but actively negotiated with the monster.
The monster is smart, but he lacks expertise and even common sense.
In addition to inheriting the memory information of the evil dragon Atwood, the parasite also comes with its own special personality template and memory information library programmed by Black Robo.
This is undoubtedly an advantage in specific negotiations.
For example, in order to express his sincerity in negotiations and reflect his own value, Atwood pointed out that the monsters' current practices were somewhat crude and presumptuous. Simply hiding in a skin that was much stronger than that of an ordinary person was not enough to avoid the searches of high-level strange beings.
Although the monster has obvious and even fatal shortcomings, its strengths are also long enough. Its intuition is extremely strong. It instinctively realizes that Atwood is not bluffing. If it wants to avoid disaster, appropriate compromise is necessary.
After all, committing oneself to a low-level extraordinary artificial skin is already a compromise. The waist is already bent, and it is often not that difficult to bend it again...
Meanwhile, on the train, Hei Luobo was also thinking about the problem of his stiff waist and knees.
The strong ones are resourceful and maneuverable, while the weak ones are patient and scheming. Each has his or her own way of survival.
He obviously didn't do well in this regard. He could be a grandfather but not a grandson.
Of course, it’s not a question of whether I regret it or not, because as of now, there is still a choice.
In order to suffer less anger and grievances, he chose to stay away from the hustle and bustle.
The sacrifice behind this is actually quite huge.
Prosperity is like fire. It can burn brightly because of the continuous burning of various resources, including talents, resources, and so on.
It was precisely because of this extravagance, like a banquet that never stops flowing day and night, that it attracted all kinds of people to gather together, hoping to have a meal on the table, or to pick up some food that fell from the table or was donated by some important figures.
In short, prosperity means bustle and more opportunities, and the people and things it attracts are themselves fuel, adding fuel to the flame of prosperity.
Such extravagant banquets are held in countries as venues and in cities as tables. Table after table is set out, and the most honorable one is often the one named "Capital".
That is why it has been said since ancient times that a country’s court is the top stage for politicians.
For Hei Luobo, a big city like Olde means more than just resources and opportunities.
The lower reaches of the Baishi River lead directly to the sea. Regardless of cost, ships can go directly to Olde, so the dock area of Olde is a famous distribution center for personnel and materials in the Kingdom of Irulan.
Whether the blood snake is parasitic or self-reliant, it is relatively easier to go to Olde.
Now, Hei Luobo has given up all these favorable factors.
This is actually equivalent to giving up the possibility of rapid rise.
Of course, on the other hand, it also avoids relatively greater risks.
If you are unlucky, try to gamble less.
This is the core truth. It seems simple, but for someone like him who is used to being flamboyant, having fun, and being able to hit the mark with every step, any delay is torture.
Fortunately, the foggy world and his past experience of failing to find big fish had trained him.
At least his insensitivity to time is much greater than that of ordinary people. To outsiders, he seems to be very patient, even a little mentally retarded.
For example, you can look at the scenery outside the car window for a whole day and still be interested.
After getting off the train and getting on a horse-drawn carriage, since we were going to a remote place, given the transportation conditions of that era, wouldn't it seem insincere if we didn't sit in a horse-drawn or ox-drawn cart for three to five days?
The horse-drawn carriages are divided into popular routes and niche routes. On the first and second days, the carriages wait for people, but on the third day, people can only wait for the carriages.
On the fifth day, the bartender of the only bar in a large town bought a glass of beer in Hei Luobo, which was said to be the best in the area but was actually diluted with water. The bartender told him that it was hard to say when the bus would be available. If it was fast, he would have to wait for three to five days, and if it was slow, he would have to wait for half a month.
Then wait. If you want the conveniences of traveling by car, such as an old horse knowing the way and relative safety, you have to pay a price. Of course, he can travel alone, but there is no need to be so strong.
After all, being brave, from a certain perspective, is creating clues that are easier for others to track.
We spent first-rate money on accommodation in a big town, but received third-rate service and waited for eleven days.
Fortunately, since the beginning of winter, there have been only two light snowfalls here, and there have been no cold waves. The temperature is at least 5 degrees Celsius warmer than the same period last year. Otherwise, we would have to wait a few more days.
During the days of waiting, Hei Luobo was not idle. He bought himself some equipment, such as hunting clothes, hunting rifles, travel supplies, etc., which could make him look more normal.
The wild atmosphere here is already very strong. There is only a few fields outside the town and it is the wilderness. A gentleman's cane is a joke in such an environment.
The long-awaited car arrived. When Hei Luobo checked out, the hotel receptionist, who was also the proprietress, said, "If I were you, I would rather stay here for another half a month."
Hei Luobo smiled, changed the bill he was about to pay into a larger one, and said, "No need for change."
Some people make money, and there is still a limit.
Others, however, like to kill and rob people in order to make money.
There are a lot of hairy people in car and boat shops, especially in remote areas.
The carriage had been traveling for half a day when it turned a bend on a cliff and suddenly stopped because the road was blocked.
On one side is a steep mountain forest, and on the other side is an even steeper, almost vertical rock slope. The road is blocked by fallen trees, which have to be pushed down the rock slope.
The driver said that he needed to remove the horses from the shaft system, then drag the tree to the edge of the slope and push it down.
In short, the car won't be able to move for a while.
Hei Luobo smiled back, meaning: It’s up to you. I’m the one paying for the ride, so don’t expect me to do anything.
The driver worked very efficiently. In less than half an hour, he had basically finished the work. Just as he was about to harness the chariot and set off again, someone suddenly opened the door and fired two shots at Hei Luobo in the chariot. Hei Luobo's body shook and he stopped moving.
The man who fired the gun leaned forward to check, then leaned on the door and yelled to his companions and the driver, his voice full of pride and excitement: "Why should it be so complicated? See? Two shots to knock him down, done! That's how I make money!"
The driver continued to harness the cart, muttering, "This shouldn't be the case! To be able to come here alone, there is a limit to how stupid you can be."
The man who fired the gun said happily: "I am lucky. There is no need to reason with him. I just happened to meet him."
Behind the car, another man with a sinister look came over, leading two horses.
He was worried that the sound of horse hooves would alarm the people in the carriage, so he dismounted early and sneaked away. He even let this reckless man become cannon fodder.
The result was a depressing show that was like a blind man being shown the stage, as the guy who dared to come to this remote place alone was killed by such a reckless move.
If they had known that he was such a gift-packed character who looked strong on the outside but was actually weak on the inside, they would have changed their looting strategy. After all, when dividing the spoils, whoever contributed the most would get the most, and this was a basic rule that had been agreed upon. Even for a relatively low-ranking gang like theirs, it was not easy to openly violate it. They still planned to stay in this area, and the value of their character was greater than the income from one or two lootings.
Of course, it depends on the specific situation. If you catch the Golden Sheep, you can be a little more shady, make enough money and run away. It can be considered an alternative form of early retirement.
The three of them gathered together and prepared to start counting the stolen goods.

The man who fired the gun was so excited that his hands and feet were shaking. He kept boasting: "If I had known it was this kind of person, I should have tied him up and tortured him, or demanded a ransom from his family!"
The driver chuckled and said lazily, "We only make money from experienced people, it's safe."
The one with the gloomy expression took over the conversation: "Kidnapping for ransom, the time spent alone is likely to leave loopholes, not to mention other variables. It's not like now, leaving the town at noon and returning to the town just after noon. How many people can guess that we have done something?"
At this time, Hei Luobo's voice came from the carriage: "This story is a bit plain. Even if you add some embellishments, it's not enough to support a bedtime story for the whole day. It's a waste of emotion."
The three people outside the car all changed color, but when they wanted to move, they found that their bodies no longer responded to their commands.
With Hei Luobo's ability, if he wants to control three ordinary people, he doesn't need too many means, especially the time available must be long enough.
All along, he has been waiting, waiting for more backup plans and more changes.
He even considered whether he should continue to exert influence and let the three of them experience the "joy of sharing the spoils" to see if he could use it to fish out any old silver coins that might exist.
Later, he thought, forget it, it's too complicated and tiring. If there is really a supernatural being who is more patient than him and has been observing secretly, he should admit it.
So he took action to try to put an end to this farce.
Three parasites grew on the arm, just like the Plaka parasite in Resident Evil 4. They were stuffed into the target's mouth in the form of tumors, and the problem was solved.
Two raiders from big towns became Hei Luobo's spies there.
The driver continued to carry Hei Luobo to his destination.
In fact, the place Hei Luobo wanted to go was not accessible even by the horse-drawn carriage that ran once every 7-15 days, so he could only walk there.
Therefore, the driver could only take him to the second to last stop.
Even so, the road was difficult to travel on and the horses could not run freely, so they could not reach the destination in a whole day.
The safety factor drops significantly at night and it is impossible to run.
So shortly after nightfall, the carriage arrived at a place called Shibao Posthouse.
There is no one at this station because it costs a certain amount of money to have someone stationed there for a long time, and the logistics of this road cannot support a station with people stationed there.
But at least it was a place with complete infrastructure, with closed stables, stone houses with doors and windows, fireplaces, wooden beds, and stone walls with stakes. It was a place where people could rest assured.
It just so happened that Hei Luobo could learn something from the driver about the Lamas he wanted to go to.
He had now entered the Stunvanya region, which was the northwestern border of Irulan, and from the perspective of the continent as a whole and the environment, close to Central Siberia on Earth.
However, there are mountains like the roof of the world, such as the Himalayas, further north, which run east-west like a barrier to block the ice and snow from moving southward. Therefore, the winter in Stunny is not as bitterly cold as that in Siberia.
But Lamas is an exception. It is located between the mountain wind tunnels. The south side of the wind tunnel even has its own place name, the Ice Wind Frigid Zone. It is not difficult to imagine how cold it is.
It can be said that the geographical feature of Lamas, which is like a big wind vent, has some magical properties, but it does not have any extraordinary power to rise. Therefore, it is one of the few places in the world that is very famous but not valued and robbed by various extraordinary forces.
The reason why Black Robo was interested in such a place was because the technological information he had was also quite good. The Robo Cult, which had taken root in the Mythology Star Region of the Brilliant Star Cluster Human Federation, provided a full set of interstellar colonization-level technological technologies.
In addition, Hei Luobo's own development, which was developed by analogy, has already formed more than one system and version, so it is no problem to start farming from scratch, not to mention the extraordinary power.
In Hei Luobo's idea, if he went to Lamas, at least he could spend three to five years to build a wind power system.
With a stable energy supply, he planned to dig deeper to obtain geothermal resources, underground mineral resources, and even extraordinary resources.
Although the origin of the world has been drained, the structure of this world is still extraordinary. In other words, the deeper you dig, the closer you get to the inner plane.
The Earth Elemental Plane is a typical inner plane, where there are a large number of extraordinary resources he needs available for mining.
Moreover, the underground is also prone to "hiding filth and dirt". The principle behind this is somewhat similar to the Eastern metaphysics of the sky being clear and the earth being turbid. The earth slowly replaces the materials on the surface of the planet and underground through burial, degradation, high pressure, high temperature and melting.
Common gasification and volcanic eruptions are all a kind of upward spitting. The forests billions of years ago were buried deep and turned into oil and coal, which is also a proof.
It is precisely because of this natural phenomenon that some of the supernatural powers are more easily found in underground environments.
Based on this point for analysis, the dark areas that are generally found in the extraordinary world are naturally a better choice. You can go down very deep without spending too much effort, and there is an underground ecology that has existed for many years. Opportunities and dangers coexist.
But in this world, such places must have been divided up as a piece of cake by the existing supernatural forces.
This can also be considered a prerequisite for the emergence of similar class solidification in the extraordinary circle.
Since this is the case, and knowing that you are unlucky, then don't pursue the adventurous creed of "it is better to take by force than to work hard". Just do your duty and find a place where you can farm without being disturbed but with potential, and work hard and be self-sufficient.
This is Hei Luobo's latest plan.
He is realizing it step by step, for example, going to Lamas to check out the place first to see if it really meets the needs.
But the information provided by the driver was like a bucket of cold water, which greatly cooled the longing and enthusiasm in Hei Luobo's heart.
"The legend of the vampire ghost?" Hei Luobo frowned.
The blood-sucking monsters in the middle and high magic worlds often have a place in the dark world due to their population characteristics.
Due to its parasitic and social nature, it either operates a dark territory or takes deep root in a prosperous city and becomes a part of its dark side. It is a bit illogical to run to remote places to create horror legends. Could it be that it can also play the trick of being a "vegetarian" and not sucking human blood?
