My Elf Simulator

Chapter 114 Sand Seal (Two in One)

Kurosawa didn't really want to pay attention.

His original plan was to go into the city to rest for a night and then continue on the road tomorrow.

But the law enforcement officer said that the mayor of Qianshao Town is currently offering a large reward for the elves to help. The elves who complete the commission can get the friendship of the entire Qianshao Town and some magical mineral resources.

Kurosawa looked at the remaining 14 points of nutrition value on the panel.

He was shaken.

His strength improved quickly, but the price he paid was the almost empty nutrition value.

It's time to replenish some, otherwise every time he opens it, he will be scared to see the double-digit nutrition value.

After all, he is a town mayor, although it is very likely that he is self-proclaimed, but as a leader-level figure, the rewards for the task commissions issued should be more generous, right?

With anticipation, Kurosawa walked all the way to the center of the town.

The architectural style in Qianshao Town is very different from that outside.

The style is rough, with few decorative decorations.

In line with the arid climate conditions, the brown-yellow color of the residential walls.

The wall is rough, and there are no large windows. Instead, there are small square holes about the size of a palm.

While reducing the amount of sunlight entering the room, it can also maintain good ventilation.

It was the first time that Kurosawa came to such a town with such a strange and distinctive style.

It felt like walking into a film and television base for filming movies, which was particularly novel.

Kurosawa observed the town like a curious baby, and followed the law enforcement officers who led him all the way to the center of the town.

The closer to the center, the more exquisite and high-end the decoration and supporting facilities of the building.

The garden courtyard, and small-area street parks are interspersed between the buildings.

The law enforcement officers did not take Kurosawa to an office similar to the city hall, but led him to a luxurious manor.

After whispering a few words to a man who looked like a butler, he left directly.

"Hello, Mr. Kurosawa. My surname is Lu. I am the steward of this manor. Thank you for making a special trip."

"No problem. Can steward Lu tell me the specific content of the commission?" Kurosawa waved his hand and didn't care.

"The specific details of the commission will be introduced to you by the mayor."

Under the guidance of the steward, Kurosawa entered the manor.

This should be the most luxurious building in the entire Qianshao Town.

The manor is guarded by armed bodyguards.

Bright white walls, fine black thatched roofs, wooden window frames and small window panes.

The long porch, open patio courtyard, dotted with well-groomed flowers and green plants, and the sprinklers spit out water mist evenly.

The manor is so large that Kurosawa was dumbfounded.

He was almost lost after going around all the way, and then he walked into a bright hall.

Sitting in the first seat was a middle-aged man with a big belly and a bald head.

He was the highest manager of this town, Nie Guangxiang.

"You are Kurosawa, right? I've heard of you for a long time. I'm Nie Guangxiang, the leader of this town."

When the man saw Kurosawa, he approached with a face full of enthusiasm and held Kurosawa's slender hand tightly with his fleshy palm.

His enthusiasm made Kurosawa feel uncomfortable.

He struggled twice secretly, but failed.

Kurosawa sighed in his heart, but said calmly.

"Hello, hello, Mayor Nie, it's an honor to meet you."

"What's the name of Mayor? Just call me Brother Nie." The man laughed heartily. "I don't know why, I feel very close to you when I see you, just like my brother."

"Haha, Brother Nie. I heard that you have a commission to be issued here. Can you tell me the details?"

Kurosawa wanted to get straight to the point.

"Okay, let's talk while we eat."

"Old Song, go to the kitchen to prepare some cakes and fruits."

Nie Guangxiang said to the servant at the door, and at the same time pulled Kurosawa to the deputy seat in the hall.

Only then did he release his palm.

Kurosawa, who had gained "freedom", could not help but let out a long sigh of relief.

The servant brought a platter of fruit and pastries, and Nie Guangxiang began to introduce the specific details of this commission.

"The story started a few days ago."

When it came to the commission, Nie Guangxiang's face changed from sunny to cloudy like a Sichuan opera face-changing, and his face was so heavy that it seemed like water could drip out.

Although Kurosawa wanted to complain about why the other party could get into the state so quickly, he felt that complaining at this time seemed to have a bad atmosphere, so he didn't say it in the end, and listened patiently to the other party's introduction.

"."

". This is what happened."

"Brother Kurosawa, please."

"Gao Yi is my best friend, the best researcher and geologist in this desert, please do your best to bring him back."

"Without him, there would be no me today, and no Qianshao Town today."

When the man was emotional, he held Kurosawa's hand tightly again.

Kurosawa's eyes moved down and looked at his innocent palm.

Just talk, can you please stop touching me?

To be honest, with his experience, he couldn't tell whether the other party was acting or expressing his true feelings. Or was it both?

In short, it was.

When Gao Yi, the head of the research institute in Qianshao Town, went out for research, he encountered a sandstorm.

Then he disappeared.

He has been out of contact for four days.

The commissioned task requires Kurosawa to go to the place of disappearance for investigation.

Of course, the research institute in Qianshao Town is just a gilded name, not a real research institute.

A remote and poor town like Qianshao Town cannot attract senior researchers. Only senior researchers can obtain the qualification to open a personal research institute in the Alliance Research Institute.

The leading core researcher Gao Yi only has the official certificate of an assistant researcher.

In the researcher title system, there are intern researchers, assistant researchers, formal researchers, senior researchers, and professors.

Assistant researchers are at the second level and can be responsible for handling and carrying out some research work under the leadership of formal researchers.

But Gao Yi's significance to Qianshao Town cannot be described by an assistant researcher.

He is more famous as a geologist.

In the more than 20 years since he took root in the Ugu Desert, he has been diligently carrying out research work and has a deep understanding of the surrounding geographical environment research, resource distribution and various abnormal climate conditions.

Qianshao Town, a small town that is free from the jurisdiction of the Alliance, has achieved such development, and he has made an indelible contribution.

Let's take a case from our own life. The lake next to Qianshao Town did not have such abundant water at the beginning. It was also relying on Gao Yi's research to attract the surrounding groundwater system and continuously develop it to have its current appearance.

Nie Guangxiang originally wanted to personally lead people to the desert to find researcher Gao Yi.

But unfortunately, the activities of the Sand Bandits have become more frequent during this period.

As the leader, Nie Guangxiang needs to take people to Qianshao Town to prevent their attacks and cannot leave at all.

Qianshao Town has strengthened the screening of people entering the city to deal with various risks that may come.

So he can only entrust the task of finding Gao Yi to a trusted elf master.

The reason why Kurosawa was invited here is also because of his identity as a professional elf master of the Alliance.

Unlike the elves who wander in the gray area, the information of the elves under the Alliance is relatively transparent.

After knowing the name, it is easy to search for specific resumes and public information on the official website of the Alliance.

The professional elf masters of the Alliance are equivalent to being guaranteed by the Alliance, and it is easier to win the trust of others.

Nie Guangxiang had gathered all the information about Kurosawa before he entered the house.

Although he was very young, only five or six years older than his daughter, he would not underestimate the strength of a city champion.

Even if he was the spring champion of a third-tier city, how weak could the champion be?

"Trigger the event task [Qianshao Town's commission], please find the missing researcher Gao Yi."

After understanding the specific task commission, the system prompt sounded in Kurosawa's mind.

"No problem, I'll take this commission."

Kurosawa looked at Nie Guangxiang and nodded.

"Then I'll leave it to you, brother Kurosawa. Researcher Gao Yi is of great significance to the entire Qianshao Town. After the task is completed, there will be a great reward."

"Please pay attention to your personal safety during the task. Recently, the sand bandits have begun to stir again. Many of our delivery personnel have been injured and lost contact."

Kurosawa responded.

Of course he knew these situations, after all, he saved Duan Fugui who was robbed when he came.

He was not too worried about the sand bandits mentioned by Nie Guangxiang.

His strength is improving rapidly now. Even if he can't beat an Elf Master below the elite level, he can at least escape.

"Then wait for your good news."

Nie Guangxiang sent Hei Ze to the gate.

Hei Ze returned to the outer ring residential area near the city gate and found a hostel.

The hostel has three floors.

The first floor is a tavern, and the second and third floors are rooms.

"A deluxe room, thank you."

Hei Ze glanced at the room price list behind the counter and said to the proprietress with hair on one shoulder in front of the counter.

"Okay, the deluxe room includes three meals. What do you want to eat for lunch?"

"Let's have some of your special dishes. Please send them to my room after they are ready."

Hei Ze walked up the brick stairs to the third floor.

Entered his room.

Take a shower and replenish the water in the storage bracelet.

The journey is not to rush to the destination. The important thing is to experience yourself and improve your strength in the process.

It is not advisable to rush blindly.

He had wanted to pass through the Ugu Desert area as soon as possible, but his super-sensory ability derived from his natural power was too limited in the desert, and his ability to find magical resources was affected.

In addition, the weather was hot, and it was inconvenient to train elves.

Now that he could obtain resources through task commissions, he was not in a hurry to leave.

After having lunch and resting in the hostel, and taking a short nap, Kurosawa's fatigue from traveling in the desert was relieved a lot.

The hostel he stayed in looked ordinary, even a little shabby, but the interior decoration was very good.

The air conditioner was blowing out cold air.

The cold room was completely different from the hot stove outside with an air temperature of nearly 40 degrees.

The little Shining was sitting on a blanket, holding a power bank, and training tirelessly.

Its soft feathers exuded golden energy.

The violent thunder attribute energy became soft and peaceful under its patient manipulation.

Entering the power bank through the beak.

Its recent training has been very effective, and it can now output a relatively stable current that meets the standards of a power bank.

It just fluctuates occasionally.

However, Kurosawa believes that after a period of training, it will be able to completely complete the predetermined training goals.

By then, his daily electricity problems in the wild will also be solved.

"Ahhhh!"

Little Nightmare was holding a vertical air conditioner, blocking the air outlet, enjoying the baptism of cold air with a satisfied look.

Its race determines that it naturally likes a cool environment.

"Come here, get ready to go."

Hei Ze clapped his hands and said to the elves.

Hearing that they were going out again, the two little ones seemed a little depressed.

Hei Ze was also helpless, he also hated the hot desert environment during the day.

It is very comfortable to have an air conditioner in the room, but you can't stay in it all the time.

If it is really for comfort, he will not choose to go out for training.

Stay in Haitang City, train for a few hours every day, and play games, eat and drink in the rest of the time. Isn't that kind of comfortable life sweet?

Of course, if he stayed in Haitang City for regular training, his and the elves' strength would not improve so quickly.

He checked out at the hostel counter.

As soon as he opened the door, the heat wave hit him.

This afternoon, Hei Ze prepared to search near the area where Gao Yi disappeared.

Although Nie Guangxiang has sent people to explore the area near the missing place in recent days, the sandstorm wiped out all traces, so he failed to collect useful information, but his perception ability is stronger.

Maybe he can find some clues?

Along the main road out of the city, walk out of the city gate.

The two guards guarding the city gate recognized Hei Ze and saluted him.

"Sand dates are 20 yuan per pound, come and have a look if you pass by!"

As soon as he left the city gate, a more intense heat wave mixed with sound waves hit.

The world outside the city is more lively, with vendors hawking, "gold diggers" discussing team formation, and unemployed people sleeping in the shade by the wall.

People living in the Ugu Desert seem to be accustomed to the hot environment.

"Brother, do you need to ride a sand seal?"

A young man with dyed yellow hair was very perceptive. He saw that Hei Ze was ready to travel far away, and approached him and asked.

"."

"How much is the fee?"

"Two thousand per day."

The young man saw that there was a chance, and gestured.

Kurosawa nodded without saying anything, his eyes lingering on the sand seal beside him for a moment.

The sand seal is an elf that lives in the desert environment.

It has one-star racial qualifications and poor combat ability, but has excellent long-distance travel ability in the desert environment.

It is a common desert mount.

If we only talk about combat ability, the sand seal with primary strength in front of him can't get out of a round in front of Nightmare or Little Shining Spirit, but everyone has their own expertise. In terms of manning people in the desert environment, Nightmare and Little Shining Spirit tied together can't compare to it.

Kurosawa looked at the young man with interest again.

In his perception, the young man did not have psychic power.

There was no sign of being contracted on the sand seal elf.

"Is this your elf?"

"Master Elf Master, you are joking. How can I have this ability? This is rented from the company."

The young man looked at the Little Shining Spirit and Nightmare floating beside Kurosawa, a little envious.

"Then how do you control it?" Kurosawa asked curiously.

"Use the reins and this." The young man took out a delicate whistle from his pocket.

"Won't the sand seal resist?"

"You don't have to worry about safety issues. The company's domestication is very successful and very obedient."

Kurosawa thought it was amazing at first, but changed his mind.

The sand seal is originally a kind of elf with a gentle personality.

If its wild characteristics can be suppressed by instruments or drugs, its desire to attack humans will be reduced to a minimum.

Through long-term command domestication, it is really possible to make it driven by ordinary people.

To some extent, it can be regarded as a win-win situation.

The sand seal has found a stable source of food, and humans can borrow their excellent mobility.

Of course, there is still a big gap between the elves who act according to the instructions of the reins and whistles and the contracted elves.

The information that the instructions can convey is mechanical and fixed, and can only do some simple work.

And the contracted elves can not only grow together, but also because of the existence of the contract, people and elves are in tune with each other, and their work efficiency is also higher.

Kurosawa guessed in his heart.

Most of the income of the sand seal "driver" in front of him should be handed over to the company.

Freight drivers like Duan Fugui who contracted sand seals themselves earn more.

Hei Ze was too lazy to bargain, and got on the sand sled after paying the bill.

After the young man asked for the general direction, he blew the whistle in his mouth.

"Beep!"

After a crisp whistle, the sand seal sank into the sand and slowly pulled the sand sled away from Qianshao Town.

The sand seal fluttered like it was swimming in the water, and its strong flippers and fins quickly cut through the sand.

The sand sled kept speeding up under its pull.

"Whoosh."

Hei Ze enjoyed the hot wind blowing on his face and looked at the scenery that was constantly retreating.

He sighed.

Compared with walking on his own legs, the speed of the sand seal was indeed much faster.

He reminded himself in his heart that he was riding a vehicle now to save time for the mission.

After the mission was over, he would still have to walk on the journey.

If you frequently use vehicles to travel, the experience journey will become tasteless.

Hei Ze looked at the map and kept pointing the way.

About two hours later.

He arrived near the missing location that Nie Guangxiang told him.

The missing location was just a very rough geographical range.

Kurosawa stared at the sand seal leaving.

He was the only one left in the vast desert.

Kurosawa activated the power of nature.

Ice-blue gas appeared on his body, and his pupils turned ultramarine instantly.

Although there are few plants in the desert environment, they can also provide him with information.

He planned to use his perception ability to conduct a carpet screening of a nearby area.

It would be best if Gao Yi could be found. If he couldn't find him, finding his personal belongings might also help him with his mission.

Gao Yi and his team disappeared together, so they should have left a lot of clues.

Kurosawa searched patiently.

Time passed quickly.

The sun above his head gradually set in the west.

When the night was about to fall, Kurosawa was preparing to set up the camp.

There was something strange in his perception.

After climbing over the sand dunes, he looked into the distance and saw a team of three elves wandering in the sand.

They were followed by a sand walrus, a wolf lizard beast and a runaway bird elf.

They seemed to be looking for something, and stopped from time to time to dig with shovels.

"I met a fellow traveler, what is this?"
