New Century Kitchen Warrior

Chapter 20: A Not-So-Interesting Adventure
When they met again, Buyadi seemed to have turned into the Christmas tree on Christmas Eve, covered with colorful decorations.

Lei Ye probably understood why she asked Greti's head maid to do her makeup. This person's taste in beauty was really poor.

"Leino! Look what I bought! This is a rare pendant I bought from a bard who came here from a distant country. Take a look, what do you think?"

Buyadi posed seductively, showing off her small, slightly pink ears.

That's a sparkly earring.

Lei Ye stared at it, hesitated for a moment, and nodded as a comment.

To be honest, it looks ugly.

Besides, there are rumors everywhere that the Demon King's army is going to attack Hillius. Lei Ye doesn't think that there would be any bards from distant countries coming here specifically to do business. Buyadi is probably being deceived.

Never mind. She's rich and happy with what she bought, so it doesn't matter.

It is said that bards can no longer make money just by singing, so why do they start carrying goods?
Lei Ye silently took out a notebook, wrote "earrings" on it, and then handed the commission form he had torn off earlier to Buyadi.

Buyadi took it and was slightly stunned, "Goblin? We fight goblins?"

"There's nothing we can do. According to the guild's rules, we can only accept missions of this level right now. Please be patient."

Although she pouted unhappily, Buyadi didn't say anything else.

Glanced at the others.

Galatini was full.

Ms. Yuna still had that "I don't mind" look.

Lesta can ignore it.

Okay, everyone is ready, let’s go.

Far away from the plains of Hillius, there is a small village.

This is the place where the commission is issued. What Lei Ye needs to do next is to find the client who asked for help from the guild, provide the commission form to verify his identity, and get the reward directly from the client after completing the commission.

The reason why explorers are reluctant to accept commissions, especially low-level commissions, is because of the trouble. Often the clients will lure explorers in with full rewards, and then cry poor and beg for a reduction in the rewards. The more remote the village, the more likely this will happen.

When Lei Ye was still in the Brave Team, in order to establish the image of the team, the Brave would occasionally take on commissions that no one else was willing to take, but Ronnies always found a way to make those people pay the full amount of money.

Lei Ye asked around a bit and soon found the client.

He was the chief of this backward village. When we found him, he was working in the fields.

"Oh my! Why did you come just now? Another girl from our village was kidnapped by goblins yesterday. What should we do?"

This rough old man with a slight accent seemed dissatisfied with the late arrival of the Yuzu Squad.

However, this old man in his fifties did not seem to realize that the remuneration he offered was only half of the general level, and he was lucky that someone was willing to come.

"Oi Lao Deng, stop talking nonsense and just tell us where the Goblin Cave is?" So the 'grandfather' that Lei Ye was about to say became 'Lao Deng'.

The village chief had no complaints about this, he just pointed in a certain direction with a sad face.

"Over there, you can see it after you climb over the first hill."

Lei Ye nodded.

Originally, what he should have done next was to gather intelligence, such as the number of goblins, the damage done to the village, etc. However, considering that the teammates around him were pure monsters, there was really no need to waste time on such things.

So he turned around and walked straight into the mountains.

"Goblin."

Galatini followed leisurely beside him, with an expression that seemed to be reminiscing about something.

Come to think of it, this guy is a slime, and he used to live in the wild like a goblin.

Although I don’t know what I went through to become what I am now, it seems like a legendary past.

“It’s not delicious at all.”

Are you recalling this?!
"Fight, fight. Why did it turn out like this? The maid preparatory school has never taught such things. Is it because I am in the poor student class? But, but as a personal maid, I should obey the master's orders unconditionally, Lestar, I can't escape, I can't escape."

Lestar, who was following behind him, had been muttering to herself and staring at the iron sword in her hand. I don't know what she was so nervous about.

Lei Ye skillfully placed his hand on Lesta's shoulder.

Then he quickly took his hand away because of an inexplicable chill.

I turned around and looked at Buyadi, she was looking away.

Looking back, Lei Ye didn't dare to reach out this time.

"Lasda, let me ask you, are there any magics that you are good at?"

"Apart from some simple life magic, the only magic that can be used in battle is probably charm magic."

She said this with some shame.

Lei Ye sensed a hint of inferiority from her hunched posture.

"Lasda."

"Yes! Ah!"

Without waiting for her or the other person to react, Lei Ye grabbed Lesta's hand.

For a moment, Lei Ye seemed to hear clicks and the hissing sound of a steam engine coming from somewhere. Lestar began to tremble violently, and thin white smoke rose above her head.

"Come on, arm wrestle with the air, use your strength."

Lei Ye turned around and faced Lestar, suddenly exerting force.

Although she was startled and Lei Ye immediately gained the upper hand, Lasda reacted quickly and began to increase the strength in her hands.

Pull back and press.

Lei Ye, who was defeated instantly, spread his hands.

"Look, you are quite strong. You are definitely stronger than the goblins. It's embarrassing to say that your master is not good at fighting. As a personal maid, you will protect me from the goblins, right?"

".Yes! Yes! Even if I die, I will...hehehe"

As if she had misunderstood something, Lestar suddenly revealed an extremely disgusting, sticky smile.

"Hehe, hehehe, hahaha"

"So, so gentle, deliberately letting me go, to comfort me, so magical, I really feel calm now."

"Or is there a possibility that the old man likes me, hey, hey, haha." (whispering)

There's really no need to comfort this idiot next time.

Speechless, the girl below.

Just as Lei Ye was silently distanced himself, another person quietly approached Lei Ye.

That was Miss Yuna, who always had a low sense of presence. She tapped Lei Ye's shoulder with her finger, signaling Lei Ye to look back.

Lei Ye turned around and saw a young man in plain clothes following him from a distance. He looked like a farmer from the village.

He was holding a dung fork in his hand, perhaps wanting to help.

Realizing that he had been discovered, he hesitated for a moment, then suddenly stepped forward quickly. Lei Ye asked the others to go first, and he stayed there waiting for him for dozens of seconds. He trotted over, took something out of his pocket, and pressed it hard on Lei Ye's hand.

"There are a lot of goblins in there, but please don't give up. There is little money, so I'll give you this. It's from your mother."

It was a golden padlock wrapped in rags.

Lei Ye weighed it casually and found it was fake.

He returned the thing.

It’s not because I look down on it, it’s because there’s no need.

The young man who got the gold padlock back said nothing. He just put it away carefully and silently distanced himself again.

"Watch out, take my big cannon shot!"

Fearing that something similar to what happened in the underground maze might occur, Lei Ye begged Buyadi to only use intermediate-level magic or lower.

Despite this, intermediate magic also showed considerable destructive power in the hands of Buyad, who had exaggerated magical strength. Every time magic was released, it would light up the entire Goblin Cave and bring strong vibrations.

I'm really worried that this place will collapse.

Speaking of which, Lei Ye was very glad that it was them who took on the commission. Although it was a G-level commission, a large area of ​​this goblin cave had been excavated. From this, it can be judged that the scale of the goblins has multiplied to more than a hundred, and the possibility of the existence of mutant goblins cannot be ruled out. If a real novice explorer team took on this task, they might have failed and triggered the defeat CG.

Finally, two strong goblins, under the cover of other goblins, passed through the range of magic and successfully approached Buyadi.

Instead, Buyadi laughed loudly, took out a huge sword, and slashed the two goblins in half with one horizontal blow.

I think today must be a day that the goblins will never forget.

I encountered a huge breasted person without armor in the Goblin Cave. She was so powerful that she threw magic with one hand and was so big that she was like a monster. I couldn't defeat her no matter how hard I tried.

Yuna seemed unusually relaxed because she was so graceful that any goblin who dared to approach her would be quietly moved around behind her and have her throat cut with a knife.

But perhaps she realized that this battle was just for fun for the team, so she did not kill everyone, but just wandered around the edge of the cave.

Lei Ye felt that she was getting closer to him intentionally or unintentionally.
You look down on me, right? You really think I can't beat the goblins, right?

"kind!"

Try close combat first.

Lei Ye didn't have any special weapons, but now it's different. He has a legendary weapon in his hand: the Holy Sword. Although it is inconvenient to not be able to put it into the storage bag, its power, heaviness and sharpness can destroy the enemy brutally, making Lei Ye willing to accept its shortcomings and carry it on his back at all times.

In addition, Lei Ye also discovered a new advantage.

This is a weapon that can increase its lethality through vibration. As long as you rub the hilt of the holy sword long enough, it will vibrate at a certain frequency, increasing its lethality.

The holy sword feels light in my hand.

To be precise, my own strength has become stronger.

As if to confirm his idea, Lei Ye chopped the rusty iron sword in the goblin's hand with his sword, causing it to crack and fly out of his hand. Lei Ye immediately finished off the goblin with the second sword, which made the goblin's mind explode on the spot.

Once again, Lei Ye felt the numerical changes in his body extremely strongly. The power of this body was really too strong.

Generally speaking, demons are always weak in their childhood, and their talents are inferior to those of humans. It is only because they have a long life that they are able to gain powerful strength far beyond human imagination through constant practice throughout their long lives.

However, the devil does not seem to follow this rule. We devils are born in the Devil's City and we are the masters!
"Lightning Arrow." Lei Ye chanted softly.

I tried the magic and found that the lightning arrow in my hand became bigger and thicker due to the change in the strength of the magic power.

Lei Ye made a gesture of throwing a javelin and shot the lightning arrow with all his strength at the lower body of the goblin who was fighting with Lesta.

Prostate Strike!
Perfect hit! The goblin screamed, convulsed and fell to the ground, and after two or three seconds, he lay motionless in a charred state.

Suddenly Lei Ye felt the joy of Buyadi running to the underground maze to ravage those goblins. It was truly a pleasure like revenge.

Lei Ye glanced behind him.

The young man who had been following behind also entered the Goblin Cave and was shocked by what he saw.

It should be.

He quickly gathered his strength and joined the battle with the goblins.

He really came to help, but it was not necessary because the battle was actually over soon.

Because they adopted a strong attack tactic, it was equivalent to luring the monsters together to kill them. Since Buyadi released several large-scale magic spells, the goblins died very quickly.

There is indeed a variant of the goblin among the last boss, but it is just a larger heroic goblin. He died in the same way as the warrior Gegeli in the brave team, with his body cut in half by a storm sword, separating the upper and lower parts.

To use the jargon among explorers, after killing all the goblins, it's time for blind boxes.

It’s not really interesting, and I feel pretty heavy.

Lei Ye asked Galatini to stay where she was, and then went into the depths of the cave to search. Soon he found a hidden cave in the deepest part.

That was obviously the room where the goblins kept the gestational bags.

Inside were three pregnant goats, a dead rabbit, and three human girls covered in bruises.

The air was filled with a foul smell.

"It's dirty and smelly here. Go wait for me outside and I'll take care of it."

After hesitating for a moment, Lei Ye turned and said to Buyadi.

This kind of environment is not a big problem for a chef who often has to deal with the internal organs of food, but it may not be a problem for the high and mighty Demon King.

Buyadi just shook her head gently, "It's okay."

She walked quickly forward, took out some clothes from the storage bag, gently covered the girls' bodies, and continuously released healing magic. Three green '+2200' floated above the girls' heads.

When she made her move, Yuna immediately and silently moved to help take care of the other girl.

Looking at Buyadi who was skillfully assisting the wounded, Lei Ye was stunned for a moment.

That person no longer had the madness she had in battle, nor the craziness she had in play. She whispered softly like an older sister next door, comforting the crying girl who was slowly waking up.

Lei Ye suddenly felt something warm moving in his heart. The fear of the "docile elephant" that existed not long ago completely disappeared, and was replaced by something else.

He silently stepped forward and helped, removing the torture instruments from the girl closest to him, and then picked her up.

Perhaps because of the healing magic, the village girl he was holding woke up immediately. Her little face, which already revealed a hint of fear, twisted in an instant and she let out a painful whimper.

"It's okay, it's okay." Lei Ye didn't know what to say, so he just said a few dry words of comfort.

He hurriedly moved and returned along the same route.

Without any relevant experience, Lei Ye thought that the only thing he could do now was to bring the victim back as quickly as possible and leave the rest to other people in the village.

"Oh, this, this is, I'm saved, I'm saved, ah ah"

When she saw the shattered goblin corpses on the ground, the young village girl finally understood what had happened and began to cry uncontrollably.

She leaned hard against Lei Ye.

"Thank you, I thought I was going to die here, ah. Ah. Thank you, thank you, Master Explorer!"

As she cried, Lei Ye passed by a young man holding a dung fork, silent but relieved.
