Chapter 362 Old Friend
Chapter 362 Old Friend
It's him.
Caesar remembered that the person in front of him was a senior he met when he was an adventurer.
Being an adventurer is not an easy thing.
Although there are guides, this is the real world, not a game with countless simplified steps.
It's not enough to just know how to solve a maze. The real world is much more complicated than a game.
Let’s just talk about the basics.
In the game, you don't have to worry about things like being hungry, thirsty, or lacking physical strength.
Just explore the maze. The so-called strategy only tells you where there are traps and secret treasure chests. There is a hidden monster behind that room. You should collect the dust on the monster and use it when you defeat the boss in the next room. Don't walk too fast after defeating the monster at the end of the level. The weapons in the inconspicuous statues in the room can actually be taken down, and you can sell them for money even if you don't use them...
All kinds of things, all related to combat and exploration.
But there is no information about how to properly distribute food and water when exploring a large maze, what to do when you lose the light source in a dark area, if you are separated from your teammates, it is best to wait for rescue on the spot, and if you are too hungry to hold on, some monster feces can also be used to support yourself...
Although Caesar had thought about these things at the time, they were still a bit too idealistic.
Now that I think about it, I was a bit too aggressive back then.
He just rushed into the maze with sword in hand and started exploring.
It was a good idea at the time. I could mark the walls of the maze, and after exploring, I could just follow the marks to return. As long as I marked conspicuous places, it should be a very simple thing.
But then another problem arose. Even though there was a mark, I couldn't remember what the mark was for. I encountered a situation like a ghost wall, walking around and still ending up in the same place.
In the real world, a dim dungeon would make people lose their sense of direction. Once trapped in it, drinking water and food would become a huge problem. If one is not careful, one might just turn into a pile of bones.
Even experienced adventurers can encounter this kind of situation.
Caesar later heard that an experienced female knight of the Golden Rank got lost in the goblin cave and escaped after several months. After she came out, she looked like a broken person.
According to her, she got lost there "accidentally". Although Caesar thought this was quite outrageous and the possibility of it happening was almost zero, it still showed that it was dangerous to explore outside alone and one needed to be careful.
If he hadn't met the [Golden Claw Dragon Hunter] - Midler Gust there, he would have activated his backup plan:
Use the six hundred fire-attribute monster crystals prepared in advance to blast a road directly from the ground.
However, if we do this, the entire ruins will collapse, and then there will be no place for us to explore. If it is not necessary, Caesar will not implement this plan.
I still remember when I first met Midler, Caesar thought he was a very strange and dangerous person.
After all, he doesn't look like a good guy, and there are five professionals following him - he is the captain of a team of adventurers.
He had a scar on his face and a burly build. He was cursing when he appeared from the corner of the maze tunnel. He had a large area of strange tattoos on his body and looked like a villain who killed people and stole treasures.
However, it is better not to judge people by their appearance.
No one would have thought that this guy who looked no different from a villain would share some food with him and tell him the way out of the underground maze.
Without answering Midler's question, Caesar looked at the man in front of him, almost not daring to confirm him at first.
"It's really you." Caesar walked over, climbed over the guardrail, and looked Midler up and down.
His eyes were filled with disbelief. How could this person become like this?
"Why did you become like this?" Caesar stretched out his hand and pressed on Midler's arm.
With a strong squeeze, the iron-like muscles disappeared, replaced by bouncy fat.
Where did this fat guy come from?
He used to have a white eagle tattooed on his arm. It was the totem of his hometown, called [Kaidri], which means "the bird that pecks down the white clouds."
This is the tattoo his mother gave him when he left his hometown.
It implies that he will be able to become a high-flying bird and soar into the sky in the future.
But at this moment, is he still holding the Condor in his hand?
What a big, fat, white-feathered chicken.
"Haha, I'm not an adventurer anymore. After a long time, I became like this." Midler opened his arms and showed them openly.
"I didn't tell you, but I'm already married." He said this with a faint smile on his face, looking like an ordinary middle-aged man.
"Getting married? To whom? Maggie, right? Congratulations, congratulations."
Caesar said so.
"Where is Maggie?" Smoke could be seen coming out of a house not far away.
"Oh, you're cooking." Caesar said, and he quickly felt around. After all, Midler was a senior who had helped him a lot, and he couldn't be present at his wedding. Wouldn't it be too rude if he didn't even have a gift to give?
But what he didn't notice was that there was a hint of embarrassment in the smile on Midler's face in front of him.
"Well, it wasn't Maggie," he said. "It was Connie I married."
"Ah?" Caesar raised his head.
what's the situation.
As he uttered "Ah", Caesar also discovered something was wrong.
It seems that this is not the right behavior.
“Yes, that’s right.” An embarrassed expression appeared on Caesar’s face.
Wasn't he getting along well with Maggie at that time? Why did Connie marry him in the end?
The two were Midler's teammates. Connie was Maggie's sister, he remembered.
They had a very good relationship at the beginning. Caesar recalled that sometimes when he needed to find people to make up the numbers for multiplayer tasks, Caesar would look for them to join him, because Midler always said that he wanted to save enough money for a lifetime to cure Maggie's father's illness, and then marry Maggie in a grand ceremony and bring her home.
In the past, Caesar often complained, asking if people could stop planting flags, saying it was really bad.
Although Midler couldn't understand what flag-raising meant, he still listened to Caesar's advice and didn't talk about it all the time.
But it can be seen that he truly loved Maggie at that time.
How come it was Connie who married him in the end?
Caesar couldn't understand.
