"How many levels has Yishuhuakai's goblin engineering reached?" Ye Ci said suddenly without end.

.

"It's almost at the advanced level. As long as someone gives him the follow-up materials, it is guaranteed that he will reach the level very quickly, but..." Bai Mo paused slightly: "You came to him to be a siege city defender. Mechanical."

"Um."

"This blueprint is hard to find, at least you can't buy it on the market. The major guilds have long seen the advantages of this goblin engineering, and each has raised a group of such living players. Moreover, the major guilds have There are many more people in the auction market than our guild, so it is not easy to grab something from them. Take our guild for example, from the establishment of the guild to the present, we have grabbed all kinds of items from the auction market. The blueprints add up to no more than 500 copies, which is really insignificant compared to the huge amount of blueprints put in every day." Bai Mo sighed: "There are only one precious blueprints that can only be handed over to a life player. Learning. Although I also know that it is better to have the most precious recipes in the hands of a few people, but if only one person masters it, it will greatly affect the progress of production. Especially the recipes above the senior life skill division, most of them require several The joint cooperation of professional skills, if there are a few more recipes at this time, the problem of slow production progress can be greatly alleviated."

Ye Ci naturally understood what Bai Mo said. She couldn't help but think of Mara's skills, copying drawings and copying documents. If these two skills can be used, they can solve the problems that Bai Mo is worried about. Not only that , and can also copy some outdated but relatively rare recipes and skill books for sale. Not only can you earn a lot of money, but you can also secretly stimulate the major guilds, which is a good way.

However, the premise of doing all this is to be able to bring Araunah, Mara, and Joram out of the Doro tribe. But now she only vaguely mentioned to Darufal the idea of taking Araunah away, which has already made the old man so scruples. If she proposed to take the whole family away, I wonder if the old man would not Will you directly use that artifact to knock yourself to death

Thinking of this, Ye Ci felt completely unsure. She can control the way she wants to go, but she doesn't have the ability to control the judgments made by the system and the things to do, though. She already felt that the chances of taking Araunah away were extremely high, but until the last moment, everything was uncertain, and it really couldn't be included in the plan. It's gotta be annoying.

"What's the matter? It looks like you have troubles too?" Anyway, Bai Mo can't worry about these problems now, and these things can't be solved in an instant, but Ye Ci's appearance doesn't seem to be going well. So Bai Mo also asked.

"It's not a problem, it's just that I'm not sure about the outcome.

. Ye Ci told Bai Mo the truth about the Yaruna family. As expected, Bai Mo was shocked. He kept saying, "It's incredible, it's incredible. "

"What?" It was rare for Bai Mo to have such an expression. Ye Ci couldn't help laughing: "Yo, my cousin also has such a surprised expression? I thought you were always smiling."

Bai Mo reached out and patted Ye Ci's head, as a response to her words, but then he said, "It would be great if I could bring these three people. Then as long as a tree blossoms, it can achieve master-level engineering. We don't have to worry about keeping the mithril veins."

Ye Ci nodded: "Yes, Yolan is a master architect, he can build offensive and defensive buildings, such as arrow towers, city walls, surrounded by mithril veins, and Mara can copy blueprints, so he can get more various A kind of offensive and defensive machinery blueprints or architectural blueprints. As long as a tree-blooming defensive machinery is manufactured, put it on such an offensive and defensive building, are you afraid of others attacking it?”

Bai Mo also agreed very much: "Although I don't know what the future will hold. At least for now, such a design is a one-man relationship." He thought for a while. Standing up: "Well, I'll let Jiyu recruit more engineering players and construction players, and plan ahead."

Ye Ci exhaled: "It's good, but I don't know if I can take this family of three people away."

"Do your best and listen to the destiny." Bai Mo patted Ye Ci on the shoulder, put his bowl in the kitchen, and went into the house to prepare for these things.

Ye Ci was still eating, but apparently no longer had any appetite. Seeing Ye Ci looking so worried, Ye Nantian couldn't help but patted her hand and smiled and said, "Little Ci, come on, don't embarrass yourself too much, as long as you remember that no matter when your parents are behind you, they will support you. Enough."

Ye Ci was stunned for a moment, staring at Ye Nantian in a daze.

Zuo Xiaolan also smiled and patted Ye Ci's head and said, "Yes, we are all a family, no matter what the reason, no one can separate us, so you can do it well."

family, family? Ye Ci suddenly realized something like a daigo empowerment! It turned out that she had forgotten about this for a long time, but she had forgotten such an important thing! Ye Ci suddenly stood up and smiled at her parents: "Mom and Dad, I know! I know!" As she spoke, she ran directly to her house, leaving Zuo Xiaolan and Ye Nantian behind There was fog and water, and he didn't understand what Ye Ci understood.

Ye Ci went online and walked quickly to the door of the tent at Arauna's house.

. Looking through the gap in the animal skin on the tent, I could only see that Yoran was putting the broth in the hands of the two children, and by the way, she was lovingly stroking the heads of the two children, the kind of softness between her eyes. Ye Ci was very familiar with He Ci Ai, because her parents also treated her with such eyes and kindness!

She actually forgot about such a thing. Joram, Mara, Araunah, they are one family! Although Ye Ci has been talking about one family and one family, he never thinks of them as a group, but divides them into three individuals to think about them. When comparing the three individuals, who is right among them? The loyalty of oneself is higher, and the loyalty of others is lower. It wasn't until now that she felt that she was so wrong, that she shouldn't have looked at the three of them separately from the beginning. If you look at the three of them as an individual, I am afraid this matter will be much simpler.

Thinking like this, Ye Ci couldn't help her heart surging. She stretched out her hand, picked up a piece of animal skin, and walked into the tent.

"Yeah, you're here. I've just stewed the broth. Come and drink a bowl. It's very cold in the mountains in winter. Drink a bowl of broth to warm up." When Yolan saw Ye Ci came in, he hurriedly greeted her sit down. Arauna on the side also saluted Ye Ci immediately, but Ye Ci didn't let him stand up, instead he motioned him to sit down and eat quickly.

After a few days of getting along, Mara became more familiar with Ye Ci, and hurriedly went to help Yolan get a bowl. Went for the broth for Ye Ci.

Ye Ci took the bowl, thanked the family, and began to drink the soup. Although the real body is full of food and drink. But her body was still tired in the game. Drinking this bowl of broth seemed to immediately relieve her physical fatigue, allowing her to recover slowly.

Arauna looked at Ye Ci quietly. Suddenly he said, "White Elf, have you collected enough ore?"

"Yeah." Arauna kept following Ye Ci. Naturally, she knew how much ore she took, so Ye Ci didn't hide it from him. And why Arauna asked, Ye Ci thought she could guess.

"So, are you going to buy a piano for Leah soon?" Yarau held the bowl of broth tightly in his hand, his eyes were bright, looking at Ye Ci as if restraining his emotions.

"Yes."

"White Elf, do you know what Leah's greatest ability is?" Araunah asked after thinking for a long time.

"What is it?" Ye Ci didn't answer Araunah directly, but just looked at him with a smile, and swept over Yoran and Mara beside him without a trace.

. The faces of the two of them were slightly lonely, it seemed. They already knew what Araunah had to say.

"The best thing about her is that she can take people away from this island." Arauna lowered her voice, her expression and expression seemed very mysterious, as if Ye Ci really didn't know about this.

In order to match Araunah's mood. Ye Ci also pretended to be surprised, she looked a little surprised: "Ah. This ability is really amazing!"

"Yeah, I heard that this skill is passed down from Leah's family. And the departure of Taku was also helped by Leah's grandmother's grandmother's grandma..." Araunah said this with a little smugness. Leah's secret, naturally others will not know.

Ye Ci is really not clear about this question, but for Ye Ci, this question is clearly not clear and obviously it is important. The important thing is what Araunah will say later: "So, as long as I return the money to Leah, I can leave here?"

Arauna was stunned, Yolan was also stunned, and Mara was even more stunned. The three of them looked at Ye Ci quietly, as if she were a stranger.

"What? Did I say it wrong?" Ye Ci shrugged.

"No, no, that's right. After you buy a piano for Leah, Leah will definitely send you out of here." Araunah lowered his head, looking a little sad.

Ye Ci reached out and touched his hair, smiled and comforted him: "What's wrong? Can't bear to leave me?"

Araunna looked down at the broth in his hand, as if making up his mind. But Yolan said slowly: "White Elf, this child Arauna likes you very much. I hope you can stay forever. Do you have to leave?"

Ye Ci nodded: "Yes, Yolan, I am an adventurer. For me, the more beautiful and wider world is outside, outside this island, outside this sea area..." Ye Ci said nothing. After finishing speaking, he was interrupted by Mara, "But don't you think we are very beautiful here? We have dense forests, we have a wide sea, and you can even hear the mermaid singing, how beautiful it is. , why do you want to leave? Is the outside world so beautiful?"

Ye Ci knew that Joran and Mara's urgency was not because of themselves, but because of what Araunah had already made, that's why they were so anxious. For this, Ye Ci could only look at Mara with a gentle gaze, and said slowly in a soothing tone: "Mara, you are right, this place is beautiful, the sky is blue, the forest is green, the people They are also very kind. Although I don't like mermaids, I can't deny that they are very beautiful and their singing voices are very beautiful.

. In the outside world, some places are full of flowers. But in some places, no grass grows. There are snow-capped mountains, deserts, forests and waterfalls. In the outside world, the scenery is different every time you take a step. It's nice to be here, but there is adventure in my veins. I like that unknown life, and I long for that kind of excitement. "

"Stimulus?" Mara didn't quite understand Ye Ci's words. Just tilted his head and looked at Ye Ci.

"Yes, you don't know what kind of stimulation you will get in the next moment, it may be danger, it may be harvest, it may be suffering. You never know. But it is precisely because of your ignorance that you feel the world is like this It's colorful. Not like here, it's always blue sky, green trees, and beautiful mermaids."

Yoran listened to Ye Ci's words attentively. She has not left this tribe since she was born, and the outside world is a very rare thing for her. She suddenly smiled bitterly: "I think I know why my husband yearns for the outside world until his death. Maybe, he is also an adventurer."

"Mom, you can't say that, if you say that..." Mara's eyes were dripping with water, as if tears were about to roll down.

Arauna stretched out his hand and took Mara's hand, shaking his head gently: "Mara, don't say it."

Mara bit her lower lip. Although she was still young, she knew a lot. She lowered her head, very sad: "Brother. Taku also yearned for the outside world back then. But in the end, only the mermaid brought back his news, and he left. He never came back. It's Taku, do you remember me and my mother?"

Ye Ci sees the opportunity is ripe. So he showed a look of surprise: "Wait, wait, Araunah, do you want to get out of here?"

"Yes!" Araunah immediately raised his head when he heard Ye Ci's question, without hesitation and firmness.

"But, but, Darufal shouldn't let you leave." Ye Ci shook his head: "I think he attaches great importance to you, and he is Taku's younger brother, he should not want Taku's affairs to happen again. occur."

"Yes, yes, brother, the white elf is absolutely right, Lord Darufal will not agree with you to leave." Before Mara's words were finished, she was stopped by Yolan, and she turned towards Mara lightly. He shook his head lightly, then sighed: "Mara, don't say it, your brother has the right to decide his own future."

Marla bit her lip and bowed her head, tears falling from her eyes.

.

"White Elf, I need your help." Arauna looked at Ye Ci, as tenacious as a man.

"My help?" Ye Ci pointed at herself and acted innocently, but she actually asked knowingly.

"White Elf, please take me out of here!" Arauna put down the bowl in his hand, walked to Ye Ci's side, knelt down on one knee on the right, put his left fist on his chest, lowered his head, and said sincerely. "If you are willing to take me away, I will swear to make myself your slave forever and never betray you!"

In fact, Ye Ci had thought so for a long time, but she didn't expect that this sentence came out of Yaruo's own mouth, which surprised her somewhat. She quietly looked at Araunah, who was kneeling in front of her on one knee. The ritual he performed was the highest etiquette of the Doro tribe, and it was also the most respected etiquette. It is the highest courtesy one person can give to another.

She watched Araun hold it for a while, then stretched out her hand, helped Arauna, let him sit beside her, and said cautiously, "Araunah, do you really want to leave?"

"Yes."

"why?"

"I'm going to be a hero like Taku! I don't want us Doro to be like this, I want everyone to know that we Doro are not a useless race driven out by humans and barbarians, we Doro It is one of the best races in the world. I also don't want us Doro people to continue to be controlled by power and tempted by demons as we are now. We can obviously protect ourselves. So I want to leave, I want to experience, I To be the second Taku, no, I want to be a greater hero than Taku!!" Araunah's voice was not loud, but it was loud, and even my family like Ye Ci couldn't help but fight for this NPC applauded by the ambition.

"I can take you away." Ye Ci looked at Araunna's dark eyes, and answered cautiously after a while. After hearing his answer, Araunah's eyes flashed with ecstasy, but Ye Ci's next words made him nervous again: "But..."

"But what?"

"But I can't accept you as my slave." This was Ye Ci's decision after hesitating for a while.

"Why!" Araunah was obviously incredulous

. In his pure thinking, he just felt that if he was not a slave of Ye Ci, he would not be able to leave here and see the outside world. Therefore, Ye Ci's answer was tantamount to indirectly rejecting his request, which naturally made Arauna very helpless: "I would like you to do your best, I will!"

"No, whether you like it or not, I can't agree." No matter how Araunah insisted, Ye Ci refused to agree to Araunah. Because in the moment just now, she suddenly thought of a way to take this family away together. Sometimes rejecting does not mean not wanting, and agreeing does not mean accepting. The word “rejection and welcome” is a very intriguing word.

"Why! You want to give me an answer!" Arauna was very anxious. He actually had very strange feelings for Ye Ci, both admiration and fear. Admiration and dissatisfaction. Although he is still Ye Ci's mercenary, he seems a little reckless and unruly.

And Ye Ci did not shy away from these. She knew that this was just because Araunna had not reached the level of loyalty towards her. If she had reached this point, this situation would not have happened. "Actually, the answer is very simple." Ye Ci looked at Araunah, then at Joran and Mara. There was tolerance and a smile in her eyes: "Because, as a hero. He shouldn't be a slave."

Different from the Chinese people's tolerant thought of "heroes don't ask where they come from", on the Maja continent, identity is very important. If a hero or warrior has a disgraceful background, it is very important for his growth. not good. Ye Ci was thinking of this and decided not to accept Araunah as a slave, because she wanted to maintain Araunah's pride, but also to make Yoran and Mara give up on her.

Sure enough, after saying these words, the tent was calm. After a long time, I heard Yoran's low cry. She knelt in front of Ye Ci and gently wiped the instep of Ye Ci with her hair, and Mara did the same. Yoran said: "My master. Thank you, thank you for letting my son have the dream and journey of becoming a hero. My son cannot be your slave, and my daughter and I, we are willing to be yours instead of him. Slave, we are willing to serve you with our lives, my master!"

"So does Marla, Marla and Mama think the same!"

Ye Ci quietly looked at Joran and Mara's favorability, which had reached the highest point of loyalty. It seemed that as long as she was playing hard-to-get, she would be able to take down Arauna as well. She quickly helped Joran and Mara and shook her head: "How is this possible? How can I agree to you if I can't even agree to Araunah's slavery? What's more, it's useless even if I agree to your request. , I always want to leave here, and you will not leave your hometown, so..." Ye Ci smiled and shook his head in rejection.

Araunah looked at her mother and sister, and suddenly said, "Can you take us out of here?"

"Together?" Ye Ci blinked, looking very surprised, but she couldn't help but be overjoyed, it's almost done, it's almost done

.

"Yes, together." Arau nodded: "To be honest, I am the only male in our family. If I leave and leave my mother and sister in the tribe, I don't think I will be relieved. "

"Didn't Darufal take good care of your family?"

"Indeed, Lord Darufal takes special care of us orphans and widows. However, Lord Darufal is the leader of the entire tribe. Even if he takes care of us, there are many things he can't care about. I am in the tribe, and my mother and sister are still I'm going to be bullied. If I leave, I'm afraid their life will be even worse. So, if you agree, I want to leave with my mother and sister. This way they can see me at any time and don't have to worry too much. It's gone." Araunah seemed to have grown up at this moment, and he was very mature in considering issues. He was no longer a teenager who did things for his own likes and dislikes, and really looked like the backbone of a family.

"What do Joram and Mara think?" Of course, not only Araunah's opinion, but also the opinions of other parties involved in this matter: "Do you agree to leave the tribe with Araunah?"

Yoran looked at Mara and thought for a while before slowly saying: "Although I have never left the tribe, and I don't know what's outside the tribe, but if the master is willing to take us away, I don't dislike it. We are willing to leave the tribe with Araunah. We are one family, and if there is no special reason, we do not want to be separated."

Ye Ci nodded. At this point, she was very satisfied with all the development: "Well, if you insist on this, I can take you away."

When Ye Ci said this sentence, Ye Ci immediately heard three system messages.

"Joran, a member of the Doro tribe, becomes your slave."

"Mara, a member of the Doro tribe, becomes your slave."

"Arauna, a member of the Doro tribe, becomes your bodyguard."

Guard? Ye Ci was slightly taken aback. In the last life, she had only heard of the mercenary system and the slave system, and she had never heard of this bodyguard. Could it be that the system that was not triggered in the previous life was triggered in this life? When Ye Ci was thinking about it, he received another system message: "Thanks to your hard work and seriousness, the slave system and the guard system have been discovered.

. Do you need to publish your id? "

"No." Of course, this kind of thing has to be as low-key as possible. If more people know that they have slaves and guards now, I'm afraid it won't be a good thing. It is best to be more afraid of things that are on the cusp of the storm.

"After the unremitting efforts and serious research of the top players, the slave system and the guard system have been discovered. Now the major cities have opened the slave market. As well as the guard market, players are invited to experience the new gameplay in the game. I wish all players a happy game. ." When Ye Ci refused to announce the id, such a message immediately jumped out in the world, which almost immediately caused heated discussions among the major guilds and all players. However, these don't seem to have much to do with leaf words.

Because, what Ye Ci is most concerned about now is how to tell Darufal about the three people he is going to take away. After thinking about it for a long time, she decided that it would be better to clarify this matter with Darufal as soon as possible, because now she has discovered Nobo's secret, and she has been to that illusion, I am afraid Nobo will know soon This matter, if we don't make it clear about leaving before this. I'm afraid it won't be so easy to leave.

Ye Ci first went to buy the violin that Leah needed, and then went to the grocer to buy some of the most worthwhile recipes, after spending the last ore on her body. Only then did he walk towards Darufal's tent. However, he has not yet reached the tent in Darufal. She saw Arauna standing under the moonlight, watching her quietly.

"What's the matter? Arauna? Why are you standing here?" Ye Ci was a little curious and stepped forward to ask.

"Master, I know what you are going to do. I want to go with you in this matter." Arauna saluted Ye Ci, and since he became his bodyguard, he has been more polite. , and very polite.

"Are you sure you want to do this?" Araunna didn't even know what he was going to do, and he still insisted on following, Ye Ci was a little worried that it would not be good.

"I confirm, Master, I know what I'm doing. I have due obligations to the tribe." Araunah said with certainty, it seems that even if Ye Ci ordered him to go back to his tent now, he would not would agree. Guards are not the same as slaves. Guards have the right to be the master of some things, while slaves do not. Slaves will obey the master's arrangements 100%, no matter if it is wrong or right.

"Okay." Ye Ci nodded. Anyway, she also wanted to make a deal with Darufal through Nobo's business, and sell a favor to Darufal, so that he could willingly let the family of three go. She was originally afraid that if she said it alone, it would not be very convincing, but now if you add Araunna, I'm afraid it will be easier to convince Darufal.

.

Darufal was still the same as usual, sitting quietly in front of his huge table. The table was full of books. Under the bean-like light, Darufal's white hair and beard were dyed. With some golden color, it looks very divine. The divine weapon staff was quietly leaning on the chair on his right, and he could get it as long as he stretched out his hand. Ye Ci looked at the staff, afraid that he would never get it in his life. Well, anyway, I have already gained a lot from coming here this time, so don't be too greedy.

Darufal felt Ye Ci walk into the tent, he didn't raise his head, just continued to look at his book, but said slowly, "I heard that you have already bought Leah's piano."

"Yes, esteemed Lord Darufal."

"Are you going to leave?"

"Yes. Sir, I have been delayed here for too long, and I still have a lot of journeys to continue, so, sorry, I need to continue my journey." Ye Ci replied in a very standardized language According to Darufal, Ye Ci won't play any tricks on this kind of high-IQ NPC, so as not to be found out, he will be revenge by the NPC.

Darufal nodded. Then he closed the book in front of him, raised his head, looked quietly at the boy standing behind Ye Ci, and said after a long time, "What about you? Araunah, have you made a decision as well? ?"

"Yes. Lord Darufal, I have also made a decision. I want to leave here with her. Go to the outside world and see it, just like Taku." Araunah's voice was not loud, but But he could hear the unbreakable persistence in his voice.

Darufal listened to Araunah. Seemingly getting old, he just sat there. He exhaled a long breath and closed his eyes: "After so many years, I thought I wouldn't hear someone saying to leave the tribe, but I still heard it. The last time I heard this sentence, I still A young man just like you, Araunah, then Taku stood in front of me and said this to me, I am proud of him. After so many years, now you are saying this to me again, I..." Said Arriving here, Darufal paused for a while, and then showed a loving smile on his face: "I am also proud of you."

Araunah was nervous. But after hearing Darufal's words, he suddenly relaxed. And when he relaxed, the only reaction turned out to be staring at Darufal blankly. He couldn't say a word for a long time, and after a while, he said, "Is that so? Lord Darufal. Are you really proud of me?"

"Of course, my children, for those who have the courage to take this step, I am proud of you, and..." Darufal paused slightly when he said this, then looked at Ye Ci before continuing. To: "What a proud and happy thing that you can move forward for your dreams

. Araunah, I look forward to the day you become a great shaman. "

Araunah was even more surprised: "What! Are you talking about a shaman, not a warrior?"

"Why a warrior, aren't you a shaman?" Darufal stood up, holding the staff that Ye Ci coveted, and walked slowly to Ye Ci, he looked down at Ye Ci He sighed and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "I think, what you said is right. People should pursue their dreams for their own sake, and I can't leave him here. They are a family, just Please, White Elf."

Darufal's words surprised Ye Ciwei. He didn't say anything yet, but Darufal knew all about it. This is the real bug...

However, despite the surprise in his heart, Ye Ci nodded and agreed to Darufal's request. Then she glanced at Arauna behind her, and then said to Darufal: "Dear Darufal, in fact, I have another thing to tell you today."

"What's up?"

Ye Ci sighed, and then told Darufall what he and Arauna saw in the dark cave and what happened in the illusion. Darufal's face showed shock: "What! You said that Nobo actually colluded with Saga!"

"No, it shouldn't be Saga, it's just an illusion. The only thing in the illusion is Saga's maid, Sith."

"It's all the same." Darufal sank his face: "I only know that there is a sealed heart of fire under the dark cave. I have been guarding it carefully for so many years, not letting any demons have the opportunity to get close. But I didn't expect that Nobo actually colluded with the devil to steal the heart of flame! What the hell is he thinking!"

"I'm afraid, Nobo is coveting your status." Ye Ci sighed and slowly pointed out the main point of the matter. After all, from the perspective of the whole incident, Darufal has lived for too long. Although he is powerful, it is inevitable that some restless people will be ready to move.

Darufal stared at Ye Ci closely, unable to say a word again.

In the night sky on the Doro tribe, there is a bright moon, and the bright moonlight quietly sprinkles on this ancient tribe, which seems quiet and seems to have hidden ambitions. (To be continued)
