Chapter 116: You Have Bigger Breasts, You Go First (1/2)
There weren’t any decent carriages in the town.
Marni had borrowed a carriage to the players in the past, but it had been destroyed and turned into a bunch of scrap metal. This was the reason why the merchant didn’t bring his carriage back to the town anymore, and always chose to leave it near Lancaster…
Thankfully, there were still some carpenters in the town, so they still made two snow sled carriages that could somehow be used.
The problem was the beast that was used to pull the carriage.
Once Xi Wei had released the pet and mount system, many players set out to tame beasts near the town. Granted, only a tenth of the beasts were successfully tamed, but considering how many people did so, there were actually a lot of beasts that were in the small town.
Perhaps it was because these beasts lived near the Valley of the Tragic Dead, but all of them were so affected that they appeared like creatures that would be featured in a horror film.
“Hey, do you players have something wrong with your aesthetics?” Angora couldn’t help but ask Edward after picking around the ones that were available.
“About that, you can look at the post I wrote on the forum yesterday.” Gou Dan who had been obsessed with writing strategy posts on the forum told Angora. “The title is [About the change in aesthetics and rationality of the Abomination branch of the Aquatic Angel class.] I even took many pictures as proof!”
“I feel like my rationality will be changed if I read the post, so just give me a summary.” Angora hesitated for a bit before choosing not to click open the post, choosing to ask him directly instead.
“Basically, the beauty standards of the Abominable branch players would become stranger and stranger the more they summon tentacles and other meat clumps in battle, and it becomes harder for them to control their thoughts. Because of these traits, they will become more brash and odd, and I call this state of theirs Cthulhu.” Gou Dan talked about the results of his research. “The teammates of these Aquatic Angels would also be affected by them too, but don’t worry, this won’t cause a lot of trouble. Also, don’t you think these beasts look kinda cool once you look at them long enough?”
Angora who didn’t think that the beasts were cool in the least, but finally picked two deer that looked like they had hyperostosis. Even though these deer were also quite ugly, but it was much better than the other ones.
The ones that accepted the escort quest in the end were Edward’s party and the chubby and skinny duo who Angora had remembered from earlier as having decent luck.
While the two deer were pulling the sled in the snowy plains, Edward went to Eleena and asked her curiously, “How did he convince you to accept the quest?”
“He said…” Eleena’s expression was serious, and Edward listened attentively to hear how exactly the lord used wit and sentimentality to convince the young girl, before she said, “There will be a banquet, with all you can eat milk pudding.”
Edward: “…”
‘Ms. Saintess-in-training, aren’t you too easy to scam…?’
