"Who?"
As soon as Marvin and Lola appeared at the entrance of the large cave, one of the silhouettes by the lakeside noticed their existence
The large cave was a naturally forliht pearls
There was a house by the lakeside with two braziers on fire, illus
The other side’s perceptionfrom so far away
But Marvin also didn’t bother to hide
He confidently walked in
The two figures by the lakesideonto two daggers
They were both Thieves
"Halflings?"
Only when they were rather close did Lola suddenly cry out in alarlare at her Lola i else
But her eyes were still curiously sizing up these two Halflings living in seclusion in this place
‘Didn’t Sir Marvin say he was going to nize hihts were filled with doubts
"Hello, Mister Tucker, please allow me to introduce myself I ahbor, that is"
Marvin displayed a sincere s
The latter hesitated before forcing himself to shake hands with Marvin
"You know my name?"
Marvin explained, "A scholar told ently needs food, and I need to go to Jewel Bay to buy it There would definitely not be enough tih the ht The scholar told uidance"
"Scholar?" Old Tucker coldly snorted, "Which senseless Wizard?"
"Only those Wizards able to use Divination and Inspection spells could check this place"
"Even hiding under thisat Marvin and saying,"You seeht, you said you were some place’s Overlord?"
Marvin froze for a moment He knew fro expert living in seclusion in the Spider Crypt that could help with the most difficult part of the mountain pass Thus he came here to try his luck
Marvin had run a few instances of the Spider Crypt in the past, and thus was very fa he was an old friend wasn’t pushing it
But he hadn’t expected that hi the Overlord of White River City would lead to some unexpected matter
He quickly answered very sincerely, "White River Valley…"
"Ah I know!" The old Halfling displayed an expression of realization "Last tiroup of Gnolls who came down the hill that coincidentally bu to attack a territory, wasn’t it your territory?"
"Looks like those Gnolls failed?"
Marvin nodded, displaying a helpless expression, "Unfortunately, our granary was burnt by that bunch of Gnolls"
"My people are suffering froh food back to the territory within a week This shortcut is the quickest way I could find"
The old Halfling looked at Marvin, apparently verifying whether Marvin’s words were true or not
A long ti so many people starve to death isn’t in my nature"
"I can help you a bit, but after you succeed, you have to tell me which loathso in seclusion"
Marvin agreed with a smile
This was a lot simpler
The Spider Crypt was a lower difficulty instance, but it still required several players to group up to clear it
One of the reasons was the Black Spiders’ special properties, but the most important part was that in addition to the twelve Black Spiders, a Red Spider with a Hero-like build was living here
This spider had at least the strength of the 3rd rank, and iven herself a na, but also very cunning She usually pretended to be an ordinary Black Spider to lower the vigilance of approaching adventurers, thanks to her skin being able to freely change color
She could also speak the Co she was a young lady who had been cursed into a spider, asking them to lend a hand and save her
Of these simple minded adventurers, most ended up in Elizabeth’s stomach
The reason Marvin seeked out Old Tucker’s help was the existence of this Red Spider
To bring back food frohly clear out the tunnel
Twelve Black Spiders and one Red Spider Elizabeth
The Black Spiders were nothing th, Marvin’s strength was a bit weak
Of course, if he could use the Beast-shape Shapeshift, Marvin could simply slap all those monsters into bits and pieces
But unfortunately, the Beast-shape option was still grayed out, and he didn’t knohen he could activate it again
This reflected the drawbacks of his subclass
The biggest shortco of Sorcerers was the uncertainty, and Shapeshift Sorcerers took that shortco to the extreme!
If he could turn his body into the Asuran Bear, Marvin simply wouldn’t need Old Tucker’s help
But he wouldn’t loseusually had a very good heart
The reasons this guy lived in seclusion here were that firstly, he wanted to be peaceful, and secondly, it was considered as a self ireat ot redeive hie alone, found this crypt, and kept hiding under the Mountain Range, living a life in seclusion
Old Tucker was a 3rd rank Thief If Marvin remembered correctly, he was a level 9 Thief, and a level 4 Tracker for a total level of 13
His fighting abilities eaker than that of most 3rd ranks, but his Stealth and Hide were very powerful Coupled with the Innate Halfling Stealth bonus, he couldat his side was an orphan he had picked up in Jewel Bay Very rarely would a Halfling child be abandoned by his parents Old Tucker adopted hi the Halflings’ simple tradition
Little Tucker
In Marvin’s ht noas busy settling his territory’s food issue, so he couldn’t waste energy being side-tracked and also didn’t have much to say
Little Tucker was also a Thief and was currently at peak 1st rank The sarded as very outstanding a Feinan’s inhabitants
If he could, Marvin would even think about kidnapping Little Tucker
But unfortunately, he knew about Halflings’ stubbornness Although this race was enthusiastic, they would never be easily convinced by an outsider
Before he had a good enough impression on Old Tucker, he wouldn’t be able to abduct that s
The party immediately left the lakeside to return to the s joining the ranks, the team speed suddenly accelerated a lot
Old Tucker took the lead, and he was really too familiar with this tunnel He would have to take this path every time he went out to purchase necessary items
Whenever a Black Spider appeared, Old Tucker wouldn’tit
And Marvin also wouldn’t avoid doing it After slaughtering the third Black Spider, let alone Little Tucker having an ad had a whole new level of respect for Marvin
"Very exquisite e You definitely reathis opinion
His skills were honed after countless battles And a Master teaching him how to use skills? No way
Marvin and Tucker were in front, followed by Little Tucker and Lola who felt quite safe
The bored Lola, due to her curiosity towards Halflings, kept asking questions to Little Tucker
