Chapter 416
Chapter 416
Kai, who had never been so frustrated, gritted her teeth in anger. Her hair was about to "ignite" in the snow and ice. Her hair was all messy and she was about to explode.
But when she called on others to reason, she found that except for a few people in her team, no one was willing to speak for her.
Because just at that moment, everyone saw the ability of Elaina as a priest. This kind of treatment and this range are simply not something that ordinary people can compete with.
Kai is just a low-level priest. Why should others risk offending a high-level priest like Elaina to speak for her?
Besides, Elaina killed the white bear. Just now, Noah's team fought so hard that they were almost wiped out. Everyone saw it.
Kai was not right at all. No one would speak for her no matter what, except for Noah and other close friends.
But now, because they were not in the right, they could only speak to Elaina politely and pulled away Kai, who was about to go crazy.
Although it was a bit childish, Elaina felt a little secretly happy when she saw the other party's helpless and furious appearance.
"You are... unexpectedly a bit mean. I thought you would be a kind-hearted person."
Fili stood beside Elaina and said speechlessly.
Whether it was helping her out yesterday, saving her life today, or Elaina's words of concern for others.
Fili had already regarded Elaina as a particularly kind person, like the savior clergy of the Church of Light, who liked to do everything every day except praying and bringing good news to the world.
In fact, this so-called kind-hearted existence in her heart, in addition to being able to fight monsters like white bears, also liked to bully people and say some shameful words that made people blush and heartbeat. The most important thing was that he liked to quarrel with immature girls and bully them.
"I don't know why you have this illusion. I'm not as good as you think. I'm more selfish than you think. As long as I want it, I will find a way to get it."
Elena said with a smile, tossing the ice-blue magic core in his hand that was half the size of his palm, and also hinted at the reward after defeating the ice dragon.
In any case, Elena must get the magic core of the ice dragon, whether it is to buy it with money or use some not-so-glorious means, in short, the magic core must be in his hands.
After all, if the magic core is not obtained, this crusade will lose its meaning. Even if the ice dragon is successfully defeated, it will be in vain if the magic core cannot be absorbed. Fame and wealth are of little significance to Elena at this stage.
"Selfish? If you were selfish, you wouldn't stand up to save me. In any case, I have to thank you. Thank you very much for coming out in time to block the crisis for me."
Fili said with a smile. Obviously, Elena didn't say anything funny, but she laughed happily.
A girl's smile is the most important treasure in the world. Although Elena didn't agree with this statement, she was also infected by Fili's smile at this moment.
"Huh, you are really not suitable to be a soldier."
"Huh? What are you talking about? Why am I not suitable?!"
Elena's words that seemed to cover up her shyness made Fili a little anxious. She gritted her teeth and asked for an explanation, but Elena didn't intend to pay attention to him at all and started to deal with various monster materials.
There are many good things on the white bear. In addition to the magic core and the burnt fur, the meat and claws on the white bear are all good things.
The food in the Winter Fortress is a bit worse, especially the food Robert provides to these adventurers. Although Elena can accept it, it does not prevent him from wanting to change his taste.
There are really many monsters in this area. The adventurers went out in full force and spent a morning to deal with at least hundreds of monsters.
These are the monsters driven away by the breath of the ice dragon. It is estimated that this work will take two or three days to be completed, and this does not include the monsters stationed in the deep woods.
After finishing the work of conquering monsters, the adventurers returned to the fortress. As soon as they entered the gate of the fortress, they heard the sound of soldiers eating, drinking and playing around.
While the adventurers went out to conquer monsters with all their strength, most of the soldiers were drinking, eating meat and even playing cards in the fortress. They looked so unhappy.
They had no intention of helping the adventurers at all, and Governor Robert did not issue any similar orders at all. This really used the adventurers as cheap labor.
This made many people blush with anger, and they all wanted to settle accounts with these lazy bastards..
Fortunately, there are more rational people, who have pulled back the adventurers who are about to lose control. This is someone else's territory, and there is no benefit in starting a war here.
Now the main focus is to defeat the ice dragon, and don't cause trouble if you can.
It doesn't matter if these soldiers are slacking off now. When the day comes to defeat the ice dragon, they won't be able to rest even if they want to.
After all, defeating the ice dragon is not only a commission issued by the Adventurer's Guild, but also a job assigned by the Principality.
This lizard that dared to attack the Principality's territory openly must die here, otherwise where will the Principality's face be?
If this matter gets out and the ice dragon is still alive, wouldn't it tell those evil dragons that the Principality can be bullied at will?
There is no way, no matter how unhappy you are, you can only endure it now, and wait for a chance to settle the score in the future.
After returning to the stable, everyone fell asleep. Everyone was very tired after the battle in the morning. Only a good rest could support the next battle. After being adventurers for so long, everyone attached great importance to this.
However, many people said that they missed the wine and food before going to bed. After all, they were more or less greedy when they saw the food of the soldiers in the fortress.
They were used to eating big fish and meat, and now they were a little uncomfortable after the hard days.
The most annoying thing was that there was so much food in the fortress, and there were so many things to share, but Robert used the limited resources of the fortress as an excuse to only distribute the porridge soup that was as light as water and the bread that was as hard as stone every day.
They fell asleep quickly amid the abuse of Robert. It was already afternoon when they opened their eyes. Everyone's stomachs were hungry at the same time, and they made a very tormenting sound.
At this time, Fili came again. She received an order to go to a nearby town to purchase supplies. Now she wanted to find someone to accompany her. After all, it was difficult for her to bring back so many things alone.
However, no one responded to her. They didn't trust the adventurers in the fortress at all. Purchasing supplies sounded like a good thing, but it was probably not their turn to enjoy them.
So instead of wasting energy and following Fili to suffer, it would be better to stay here and be in a daze.
