After I quit the team, they chased me

When Xiao Qian saw the name of this team in the newspaper, she knew that Simon had not forgotten his original dream and was still fighting for it.

There is no way he will give up, nor will he stop exploring the outside world.

Only those who don't understand him still think that he quit the team in order to give up and take a break.

Xiao Qian covered her chest with her hands, feeling stuffy inside, or rather, she felt the air here was stuffy.

"What's going on? I feel so depressed."

"The air here is so depressing... No, it's not the air that's the problem."

Xiao Qian couldn't help but think of the last time she came to Simon's house and asked him why he quit the team.

Simon's answer to her at that time was still vivid in her mind.

"Whether it is or not, it doesn't matter. I have wanted to leave for a long time, but I didn't make up my mind until yesterday."

"The atmosphere in the original adventure group...is very bad now."

'Leaving there is the best option.'

Just these three short sentences explain everything.

"I see, I see, I understand..."

Xiao Qian murmured to herself, and her blocked thoughts were instantly cleared up. She understood the real reason why Simon quit the team.

She didn’t quite understand what Simon meant by the atmosphere, and she thought he had encountered something unhappy.

Now it seems that this is more than just being unhappy.

It was obvious that these people had forgotten their original dreams and were only competing with the Red Rose Adventure Group.

After figuring it out, Xiao Qian suddenly felt that everything here was so strange and made her feel disgusted.

She wants to leave here.

She wanted to go to Simon, follow in his footsteps again, and embark on the journey of her dreams.

However, Captain Mei Guo will not agree so easily.

Meiguo has signed an auxiliary transfer contract with a large adventure group. By tomorrow morning, the new full-time auxiliary will officially join the team.

She wanted to get out of this situation at this critical moment, but the team leader would not agree.

However, she joined the team late and did not have enough financial resources to pay the full amount of liquidated damages.

Maybe someone will say, why don’t you just give up and wait for the team leader to kick you out?

However, this doesn't work either.

The power of the magic contract is quite terrifying. It connects adventurers across the entire continent and can accurately detect whether adventurers comply with the spirit of the contract based on the rules.

Adventurers who deliberately give up during dungeon battles and are capable but do nothing will be affected by the collapse of faith, resulting in a drop in realm and a certain probability of having the stars in their sea of ​​consciousness shattered.

This is one of the rules in the contract. It is written very broadly and not particularly rigorous. Many people have had crooked ideas and challenged the spirit of the contract.

For example, the contract stipulates that you cannot give up, right?

Then you will cut yourself and injure yourself. If you don't seek treatment from a nanny, over time, the wound will be permanent and cannot be healed.

At this point, the adventurers' own abilities are not as strong as before, and the dungeon is a team battle. The decline in a single player's combat effectiveness will affect the state of the entire team, thus achieving the purpose of giving up in disguise.

If the team leader cannot bear it, he can negotiate according to the regulations, sort out a result that satisfies both parties, and dismiss the injured person through formal methods.

To be honest, she didn't care about quitting the team, and she didn't know about this unconventional method.

This was when everyone was camping in the dungeon for the night and sitting around the fire, bored, and Simon told some gossip and interesting stories to warm up the atmosphere, which she happened to write down.

However, this method is not very good. It will only make a small wound and will not affect the battle at all.

Only serious injuries such as broken legs, broken hands, and blind eyes can affect the balance of battle and achieve the purpose of giving up.

However, if she really did this, her own combat effectiveness would be greatly reduced and she would become useless.

Even if I go to Simon, I will be a drag on him.

She didn't want to become a burden to Simon.

And Simon certainly didn't want her to quit the team by hurting herself.

“What should I do?

"Simon..."

Xiao Qian looked at the snow-capped mountains and wondered where Simon would choose to establish his team's new base and how many people he would recruit.

I guess with his fame, he won't be short of people.

"If I go too late, will there be no place for me?

"But there are still three years until the contract expires. That's a long time..."

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but close her eyes. Her facial expression didn't change at all, but her eyelashes were trembling violently.

This was the first time she felt her inner emotions fluctuate greatly.

It turns out that I can be very sad too.

Chapter 31 The Road is Too Long Simon, Buy a Pet

Simon returned to the base.

It was previously assumed that many people would visit the base and inquire about joining the team.

It turned out that he was overthinking it. The Snow Mountain Adventure Group's base was very quiet, with no one in sight.

When I entered the house, I saw the little blind man wearing a white eye mask putting firewood in the fireplace to heat up the house.

"It's so quiet. I thought someone would visit, but there's no one here." Simon said with some surprise.

"Maybe they don't know where we live."

As Roy spoke, he moved away from the fireplace and stood in the open kitchen, preparing a plate of duck blood.

She bought this specially from the butcher and vegetable shop, a journey that took her forty minutes.

To be honest, this place is too remote. Not only is it far from the town center, but buying groceries is also a hassle.

"Simon, how are we going to buy groceries in the future? Do we have to run so far every day?" Roy's red eyes widened, with a complaining expression.

Food is the most important thing for man. Even for vampires who mainly suck blood, they cannot have less than three meals of blood a day.

When all the time is added up, it takes at least two hours to buy groceries, not to mention the time spent cooking.

"Let's buy some seeds and plant vegetables in the yard. I saw some uninhabited wasteland here. You can plant vegetables there too. Just build a fence and you'll be fine.

"But it's really inconvenient to travel far. Why don't we buy a mount and a better carriage, so it will be much more convenient for us to return to town."

Simon sat on the sofa and roughly calculated the team's assets on hand. He felt relieved that there was still money left after buying the horse pets.

"Is it true?" Roy's scarlet eyes lit up immediately when he heard this.

Sure enough, it’s good to join an adventure group. There is a team carriage, so you don’t have to take a taxi into the dungeon every time.

In addition, the type of mount, blood purity, endurance and speed are also the appearance of the adventure team outside, so you have to choose carefully.

When the little blind man, who was squatting in front of the fireplace playing with fire, heard the word "mount", a scene of a majestic carriage driving through the crowd flashed through his mind.

At that time, she was just a member of the lower class and could only stand on tiptoe in the crowd, watching the horses entering the underground city with envy.

Now that I heard that my team could also buy a carriage, I immediately felt like it was a dream.

But special mount pets should be very expensive. I heard that they cost tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands, and this is still the cheap level.

The better grade is between 200,000 and 500,000 yuan. As for the more luxurious grade, there is no upper limit. Even the little blind man himself does not understand it.

"Of course it's true. When Baitang comes back, the four of us will pick them together." Simon said.

Simon bought a carriage from the original adventure group, but that was five years ago.

The current market price has changed, but the fluctuation is not large. It is basically the same as the price five years ago. At most, it has increased by a few thousand yuan from the original price.

"Hey, Simon, I heard that some adventure groups catch their own pets and train their own mounts without spending a penny. What do you think of this? Wouldn't it be better?" The little blind man walked out from the fireplace and sat next to Simon.

"I know that, but no." Simon shook his head.

"why?"

The little blind man showed a curious look.

Even Roy came over quietly, holding a bowl of raw duck blood in his hand.

"Wild adult horses are violent by nature and difficult to tame. People who can do this are usually the animal trainers in the team," said Simon.

Among auxiliary professions, animal tamer is considered a branch profession of logistics.

Their first skill is usually Animal Affinity, their second skill is Hand of Taming, and their third skill is Hand of Wild Conquest.

】

Of course, the tamer also has other skills, but that is another matter and I will not go into details here.

The most important skills are Animal Affinity and Hand of Wild Conquest. One of them allows you to have affinity with horse monsters and improve their favorability.

The Hand of Wild Conquering is a skill used by the formal class of Beast Tamers to conquer the bestiality of wild monsters, smooth out their violent natures, and gradually soften their personalities until they can be used by humans.

Without these two skills, most tamers would be seriously injured by wild monsters when taming them.

If the nanny is not present, she might be kicked to death.

Closer to home.

Simon planned to buy a ready-made mount directly. It was a horse that had already been trained by others, and had been trained since childhood. Its natural wildness had been smoothed out, making it very friendly and less dangerous.

Simon briefly introduced the difference between self-raising and professional training, and the two finally understood the ins and outs.

"Well, those who have money can just buy ready-made ones." The little blind man concluded heartlessly.

"Little blind man, do you want to catch one yourself?" Roy said while drinking duck blood.

"Who said that? I didn't say that," the little blind man retorted.

"Without a trainer, it's hard to raise wild monster cubs."

Simon shook his head. That thing couldn't be raised by eating ordinary food. It had to eat blue essence blocks, certain plant resources from the dungeon, and mother's milk, all of which cost money.

Although wild horse cubs are small and may not have a big appetite, their nutritional needs are huge in their early stages.

If you don't feed it with milk from wild monster mothers, it may die.

The mother of wild monsters is a "breeding machine" in the dungeon and a gold mine that lays eggs. It has long been strictly controlled by major adventure groups.

There is no low-cost breeding method for normal people. If they want to buy professional pets, they can only go to the store opened by the local adventure group.

"By the way, it's not nice to keep calling you a little blind man. Don't you have a name?" Simon asked.

Simon pulled out the original adventure team contract. The name signed on it included the three words "Little Blind Man", as well as her fingerprints.

Even if she changed her name, it would not affect the effectiveness of the contract.

"I don't have a name. I'm an orphan." When the little blind man heard this, he shook his slender legs indifferently.

She is too thin. Even if she has meat and rice to eat recently, it is impossible for her to gain weight in a short time. It takes time to nurture.

Roy felt sad for her silently. It was so pitiful that little girl didn't even have a name.

Simon took her in, he must have felt sorry for her.

"Hey, hey, hey, I don't need your pity. I'm a warrior, and you're assistants and healers. Just stand behind me and give me skills and treatment."

The little blind man is carefree, with two rows of jagged teeth when he smiles, which looks a bit scary, but his expression is innocent and free of distractions.

Simon thought it was not a good idea. Keeping calling her the little blind girl would remind people of her physical defect - she was half blind.

She said she didn't care, but can everyone just call her that as a matter of course?

I'm afraid she herself also wants to have a nice name, but because of her face, she can't say it out.

Based on the micro-expression observation experience Simon has learned over the years, she really doesn't want others to feel sorry for her, but judging from her body language, she longs for someone to help her get out of the trough of life.

Then Simon said:

"It's not that I feel sorry for you, but it doesn't sound nice. Let us help you come up with a name, do you want it?"
