Chapter 81 The Grief and Angry White Shark
As soon as Langli Baitiao arrived at the most famous tavern in Batto, "Caroline's House", all the players looked at him and laughed. Some shouted:
"White Treasure in the Waves, you've been beaten to death again!"
The white shark did not answer, but said to the counter, "Warm two glasses of beer and a grilled sausage."
As he said this, he took out nine copper coins.
The food and drinks sold in the "Caroline's House" tavern are a good way for players to replenish their energy, and have been certified by many professional strategy players.
The players deliberately shouted loudly: "You must have stolen someone else's things again!"
The white shark opened his eyes wide and said, "How can you slander someone's innocence like this..."
"What innocence? I saw you steal the magic ring of the Kingship Guild in the mine with the hand of a mage the day before yesterday. You were blocked at the resurrection point and beaten. I killed you seven or eight times."
Langli Baitiao's face flushed red, and the veins on his forehead popped out. He argued: "Stealing equipment is not considered stealing... stealing equipment!..."
"Can what a wanderer does be considered stealing?"
There were a series of difficult to understand words, such as "Mage's Hand Deception", "Trickery Rogue Occupation", "Thief's Tools Proficiency", etc., which made everyone laugh.
There was a cheerful atmosphere inside and outside the tavern.
Suddenly, Mantou, wearing a security guard suit, swaggered into the store. The long sword in his hand with exquisite emblems carved on it made many players envious.
The white shark was very excited, but he didn't know what to say, so he just said:
"Ah! Buns."
"--You came?"
During the eighteen days that Mantou worked as a laborer, Langli Baitiao stole things in the mine and had many contacts with Mantou, so he had a lot of things to say, which he wanted to say in rapid succession: mines, earth elves, ogres, blocking the door, moving bricks...
But he always felt like something was blocking him, and the words just kept circling in his mind and he couldn't say them out loud.
Now that Mantou has become successful, he might be able to get some gold coins or something, Langli Baitiao thought.
"Hey, isn't this Brother Lang?"
"How have you been lately?"
Mantou was also very happy to see him. He took off his helmet and greeted him warmly.
Langli Baitiao shook his head in grief and indignation, and sighed, "Oh, it's not good. The Royal Power Guild is really too much. Everything I worked so hard for with my own hands was taken away by them."
Mantou patted his chest proudly and said, "What did they steal from you? I'll get it back for you!"
"Robbery is a felony!"
"It is our duty as sheriff to punish all criminals, whether it is robbery or theft!"
When talking about the word "theft", Mantou deliberately emphasized his tone.
The white shark in the waves shuddered suddenly. He knew that there was a tragically thick barrier between them.
"No, it's nothing, I've got it back."
Langli Baitiao said vaguely.
Mantou pulled Langli Baitiao over and said cheerfully, "It's okay, Brother Lang, just tell me if you've been wronged!"
"I, Mantou, will definitely make the decision for you!"
As a trickster, Langlibaitiao has a fragile body and can't defeat Mantou, a warrior.
The white shark in the waves wanted to cry but had no tears: "You don't have to do anything, Mantou."
"This is nothing."
There were people nearby who were just watching the fun: "That bastard stole someone else's things again and got chased and beaten, hahahaha!"
"That's it."
"Stealing the king's things, tsk tsk."
"The number of stray animals who died was still low."
The white shark struggled to break free, opened his eyes wide again and looked at the players, loudly defending himself: "Why do you always slander others' innocence like this..."
"Haha, there's a video on the forum, go look for it yourself!" said a player who had been robbed by Langlibaitiao gritting his teeth.
"Is what they say true?"
"And...did you steal the bottle of healing potion from the mine?"
A malicious smile appeared on Mantou's face. Langli Baitiao suddenly recalled that when he was working in the mine, he secretly took a bottle of potion from Mantou, but he didn't expect that this guy would remember it until now!
The white shark in the waves thought something was wrong and waited for an opportunity to escape.
"no……"
"Mantou, what are you going to do?"
"Brother Lang, I'm sorry, I am also in a position where I can't help myself."
Mantou spoke in a sad tone, but his hands never stopped moving.
He pulled the white shark over again and handcuffed the carefully prepared silver bracelet on his wrist.
"Citizen, you are suspected of theft. I am ordered to arrest you!"
The reward information is refreshed on Mantou’s panel.
[You captured a lawbreaker and gained additional camp contribution: 150 points]
"Hehe, it's easy to get it."
Mantou immediately smiled happily.
The white shark was a little stunned. An expression of joy and sadness showed on his face. He moved his lips but said nothing.
His face finally turned sad and angry, and he shouted clearly:
"Mantou, you fucking..."
But his mouth was immediately stuffed with a towel.
"Citizens, please do not try to provoke a sheriff." Mantou said familiarly.
"Hahahaha!"
The pub was once again filled with a cheerful atmosphere.
That night, Langli Baitiao leaned against the cold wall of Batto City Prison, browsing the player forum out of boredom. He still had three days left before he could be released from prison.
At this moment, he discovered a hotly debated post on the forum.
"Mantou Justice Arrests Sluts [Video]"
The following comments are full of joy:
"This is the first time I like steamed buns so much."
“Support Mantou!”
"There are still many good steamed buns in the world!"
"Whoever smiles at you, just take him away!"
Langli Baitiao was browsing the comment section, his face gradually turned red, and he gritted his teeth:
"Hmph, damned buns..."
Langlibaitiao suddenly saw Singo's guide post, which introduced the hometown of the tieflings, a city sealed with blood, tears and sin - North Wind Hold.
"I am a treacherous hero in troubled times. How can I be trapped in this small city of Batuo?"
He stared at the cold, hard prison bars, and suddenly a certain resolution came to him.
……
On the second day, the prison guards found that the door of the cell had been pried open. There was no one inside, only a line of small words left:
"Isn't the golden scale just a thing in the pond? It turns into a dragon when it encounters the storm."
The writing is crooked, but still very powerful.
However, the guards did not understand and simply wiped it off as a stain.
A new hot post also appeared on the player forum:
"How can a small city like Batto hold back a white shark like me? Brother Lang's adventures in North Wind Castle!"
"Damn, the stray beast left the main city?"
"Awesome, Brother Lang!"
"It's okay. With the nature of this slut, he will soon come back to life."
"Good news. After the wandering beast left, the crime rate in Batto City has dropped significantly."
"Everyone disperse, we'll meet him at the resurrection point later."
While the players were discussing this, the White Shark was running frantically on the edge of the Storm Peak, followed by several ugly hill giants.
"What the hell is this——"
The white shark wailed as he drove the Rogue so fast that his legs were almost leaving a shadow.
