Chapter 27

Second update! I feel like it's a bit like a children's play, full of animals!

"Mosquitoes, robbing mosquitoes? Haha! Haha! Haha!" Xiao Huai burst out laughing at these words, almost falling off Cook's shoulder. If it weren't for this little thing's quick reflexes to grab a strap on Cook's leather helmet, he would have fallen to the ground.

"Hmm!" Cook was full of black lines on his face, being mocked by a creature similar to a squirrel. If you were mocked by such a creature, you would probably be quite depressed.

"How can you have such a childish idea? Besides, why would a human rob mosquitoes? Do you want to eat meat?" Xiao Huai wouldn't let Cook off. This little thing had suffered a lot at Cook's hands and had been outsmarted by Cook many times. So he wouldn't miss the chance to continue to strike back.

"Kaka!" Cook was speechless. How could this guy's intelligence show a linear upward trend? So he just said two words.

"Whoosh!" As soon as Xiao Huai heard this, he immediately jumped to a branch on the side.

"You, you, you!" Xiao Huai stood on Cook's head, looking at Kaka with caution, then shouted angrily at Cook.

"Right, how could I forget Kaka? This guy is just for dealing with mosquitoes, Kaka! Can you...?" Cook immediately asked.

"Big, too, big!" Kaka immediately replied with three words.

"That's true. Why would that guy need such a big tent?" Cook understood Kaka's meaning, which was that it was too big, and couldn't help but complain.

"One gold coin, and I'll tell you my method." Xiao Huai sneaked back to Cook's shoulder, showing two large front teeth.

"One gold coin? I might as well drive the mosquitoes out of the tent myself," Cook replied irritably.

"Then ten silver coins." Xiao Huai's logical thinking was always inferior to Cook's. He didn't think about whether Cook would be allowed to drive the mosquitoes away or whether Cook could endure it, even if the mage allowed it. After all, this wasn't just for one day.

"A few mosquitoes for ten silver coins? One silver coin, or forget it." Cook replied with disdain.

"Give it!" Xiao Huai actually didn't understand the difference between a silver coin and a gold coin, but being able to get something from Cook made him feel particularly accomplished.

"Stingy guy!" Cook threw a silver coin to Xiao Huai and muttered.

"Hmph! Dare to call me stingy, do you believe I won't tell you?" Xiao Huai huffed, but his eyes were full of joy, and he wouldn't let go of the silver coin.

"Alright, Comrade Xiaohuai, quickly tell the target, so we can rob them. Don't forget, you're a little rascal!" Cook quickly said with a serious tone.

"Comrade?" Xiao Huai was attracted by this new term.

"One silver coin, and I'll explain it to you." Cook, hearing this, immediately smiled.

"Hmph!" Xiao Huai showed a hesitant look.

"Cough, cough, knowledge is priceless." Cook quickly added.

"Alright, looks like I'll have to charge more in the future." Xiao Huai muttered after a while.

"Uh!" Cook was immediately speechless.

"Here, I'll let you keep it for now." Xiao Huai reluctantly threw the silver coin to Cook, but his words made Cook extremely depressed. What does 'keep it for now' mean?

"So, what's the target? Comrade?" Cook explained the meaning of 'comrade' and then asked.

"Comrade, how awkward, it's those guys over there, see? The black bats?" Xiao Huai pointed to the sky.

"Rob bats!" Cook almost fell over.

"Yeah, those guys. Let's go. I saw a cave this afternoon, it's probably the bats' home. We'll check it out, kidnap the young ones, and make their parents catch mosquitoes near our tent." Xiao Huai explained the entire plan simply and clearly.

"Sweat!" Cook was drenched in sweat. Actually, Cook hadn't thought of it, and no one would use this method to deal with mosquitoes. Of course, Xiao Huai's perspective was different.

Following Xiao Huai's guidance, Cook headed towards the cave. As he climbed the slope, he sighed, "This talent is really not much, the first target for robbing is actually a group of bats?"

"BIU! You bad guys!" Just as Cook was about to turn around a large shrub, a blob of unknown sticky liquid was sprayed onto Cook's body, followed by a voice from the side.

"Uh!" Cook frowned, seeing a bird on a nearby tree. The bird had a large beak, black feathers all over its body, and the sticky blob was white, clearly some unpleasant substance.

"Haha! We are bad guys, robbing!" Xiao Huai jumped up on Cook's shoulder, laughing loudly.

"You bad guys, you'll get what you deserve." To Cook's surprise, this little thing could actually curse.

"You say we're bad guys, but we've never met before?" Cook frowned, hearing this. Actually, Cook found it annoying sometimes, because normally the bird's chirping was pleasant, but now...

"How can you not be bad guys? You scared away my girlfriend, and not only that, you even occupied my home." The bird's answer almost made Cook's jaw drop.

"Really? There are such bad guys." Xiao Huai asked in surprise.

"Hmph, don't deny it, you're dressed the same as that guy." The bird then coldly snorted and presented evidence.

"Same?" Cook was first puzzled, then his body trembled. Cook was dressed in a standard hunter's outfit, and the only people who appeared in this area besides his own empire were from the Ceylon Empire, clearly indicating that this was a Ceylon Empire scout.

"Not the same, we're not together. Look, are we different from the bad guy you mentioned?" Cook pointed to his chest. Cook was a mage's attendant, and a fire mage's attendant, so the badge was mostly red. The scout, according to Cook's guess, was unlikely to be a mage's attendant.

"This is a disguise, your human disguise." Cook was surprised by what the big-mouthed bird said.

"Disguise? Do I need to use a disguise to deal with you?" Cook smiled, as Kaka was already in position.

"Haha, just with that big buck-toothed thing on your shoulder?" The big-mouthed bird looked at Xiao Huai and laughed.

"Big buck-toothed!" Cook looked at Xiao Huai's two large front teeth and repeated in amazement.

"You damn guy, calling me big buck-toothed." Xiao Huai jumped up in anger.

"Big buck-toothed, a bit like it." Cook also joined in to tease Xiao Huai.

"Duel, I want to duel with you, black ghost." Xiao Huai shouted in a rage.

"Black ghost?" The big-mouthed bird tilted its head, staring at Xiao Huai with small eyes, puzzled.

"Black ghost, a black thing." Cook explained on the side, actually saying it unintentionally.

"Kaka, attack!" But in the moment the big-mouthed bird was stunned, Cook gave the order.
