Volume 1 Despair and Dawn Chapter 56 Plans
Leaving Zhao Xi and Lake behind, there are exactly five people left who participated in the show of hands vote, and there will be no equal number of votes, so that the future results can avoid some useless controversies, after all, quarrels are the most time-wasting thing and meaningless.
Taylor looked at the voting results and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, but Lake on the other side didn't have a good face.
Seeing that there was only one person who agreed with him, Lake's face at this time was dark, but it was the opinion of the majority, and he couldn't refute it.
"Wait! You all wait! Time will prove me right! I would rather trust a human than my own people, and you will regret your decision!"
Lake lowered his head, the expression on his white face was blue and white, and he was still roaring unwillingly in his heart, but these were well hidden by him, and when he raised his head, he looked calm, but his eyes burning with anger when he looked at Zhao Xi, as if he wanted to burn this human alive.
After Zhao Xi saw Lake's gaze looking at him, he just shrugged his shoulders and didn't pay much attention to it, but just decided to stay away from him when he decided to act, so as not to be affected by him.
"Well, since Mr. Donn's proposal has been approved by the majority, then the next action is decided, and your opinion is very good, but it is not very suitable for the current situation. Taylor announced the final result and calmed Lake on the side, but Lake couldn't listen to what he was saying.
The next thing is the time for everyone to eat and drink, after all, except for Zhao Xi, everyone else has been arguing all morning with an empty stomach, and for a while there is only a lively sound of persuasion in the house, although there were also kobold deaths and injuries yesterday, but it is also a big victory for the tribe, and this morning is also a belated celebration banquet.
After all, the tradition of the kobold tribe is not to save the grief for the next day. Because grief will not make them depressed, it will only make them carry more and become stronger.
When Zhao Xi inserted another piece of barbecue meat with a knife and wanted to stuff it into his mouth, he heard the kobold next to him seem to be calling himself.
"Mr. Donne?" said the tall kobold in a low voice.
Zhao Xi had no choice but to put down the barbecue and asked suspiciously, "Is there anything wrong with you?"
"I heard that you are a close friend of Lord Vic, and now that Lord Vic has fallen, I beg you to lead us to the final victory, just like Lord Vic, please. ”
After speaking, the tall kobold bowed to Zhao Xi, raised his head and stared at the human in front of him with big eyes, waiting for Zhao Xi's answer.
In fact, Zhao Xi is very afraid of being kidnapped by other people's morality, he hates the feeling that he doesn't want to do but has to do it, he thinks that this kind of person is cerebral palsy, and he can't do things well to ask others, this kind of person will do nothing but cause trouble to others.
But now Zhao Xi looked at the pair of sincere eyes on the other side, but he couldn't even say a word, and he began to recall every scene in his mind about the fact that he knew Vic, from the strength that shocked him at the beginning, to his heartiness, to his honesty, and his persistence in fighting to the death when he was seriously injured in the end.
Although he doesn't say it, Zhao Xi still admires people like Vic, and Zhao Xi may not be able to learn their advantages in his life.
Zhao Xi didn't have anything in his heart that could make him feel worthy of value except for his own life, since the accident, he valued his life to a completely pathological level, and from then on, his life was no longer his own, and it was also the only evidence that his parents had come to this world in addition to the archives.
But he now found that he didn't hate doing anything for Vic, and the tall kobold's request was not a kidnapping, but an excuse to do things for his friends.
At least he had real friends in this completely strange world, and more than one.
Thinking of this, Zhao Xi smiled happily, stretched out his hand at the tall kobold, and said, "Of course, I will stand by Vic's side and lead you to the victory you deserve." ”
At first, the tall kobold was stunned for a moment after listening to Zhao Xi's words, and then he figured out the meaning of his words and happily held Zhao Xi's outstretched hand.
When Lake on the side saw this scene, he was so angry that he almost didn't crush the wine glass in his hand, so he simply turned his head away, out of sight and out of mind.
......
This belated celebration didn't last long, the kobolds just celebrated briefly, and they didn't get drunk, huh...... Homemade fruit wine didn't make the gang drunk enough.
After the wine and food were full, everyone evacuated the food and began to talk about business officially, Zhao Xi no longer looked like he had nothing to do with himself, but began to put on a correct posture, wanting to hear the specific thoughts of the kobolds.
"Although we defeated the enemy's first team yesterday, we were not able to completely annihilate it, some of the surviving lizardmen fled to the other side of the forest, if they want to go back and tell them the news of their defeat, it will take at least a day and a night to cross the entire forest, it will only take us half a day to reach the ogre tribe, and we can definitely take them by surprise by setting off at noon. Taylor explained the current situation to everyone in the room.
"What about the wounded? What about yesterday's wounded?" the kobold who opposed Zhao Xi's opinion asked aloud, "Minor injuries can follow us, what about seriously injured people like Lord Vic?"
"Leave a few people to protect them, as long as we attract the attention of the ogre, they are naturally not in danger. Taylor explained without looking up.
A few more kobolds raised their own problems one after another, and they were all solved by Taylor in two sentences.
"Sure enough, Mr. Taylor is also a warmonger, and has already figured out solutions to all kinds of problems. Zhao Xi looked at Taylor in surprise and thought to himself.
He thought that he would need to dispel their worries, but he didn't expect that Taylor had already thought about everything, making Zhao Xi's spirit useless.
But it's okay, save Zhao Xi from acting too positively and causing any unnecessary misunderstandings, although Zhao Xi is now standing in his position for Vic, but you can't expect all kobolds to think the same as tall kobolds, Taylor has done his homework, then Zhao Xi is also happy to be idle, and he doesn't have to think about anything else.
After a discussion, many kobolds retired one after another and began to inform the surrounding clansmen to prepare for battle.
And Lake came straight to Zhao Xi, stared at Zhao Xi and said coldly: "I will keep an eye on you! “
Regarding Lake's words, Zhao Xi just shrugged helplessly, and had no intention of answering, after all, you can never reach a consensus with a fool, unless you also become a fool like him.
Seeing that his provocation had failed again, Lake just glared at Zhao Xi fiercely and turned to leave.
Zhao Xi didn't feel anything, he didn't even have the idea of beating him, this kind of person can take two more knives for others when he goes to the battlefield, such a good meat shield, why waste his own strength, and let him be absent from the battlefield, that is not a good thing for other kobolds.
"Lake's kid is just a little younger, and young people always make all kinds of mistakes. Taylor came to Zhao Xi's side and said, "He doesn't represent all kobolds. ”
"I'm not angry about it, it's not a big deal to make mistakes, just take the consequences. Zhao Xi said in an indifferent tone.
"It's good that you understand. Taylor didn't know how to answer this sentence, after all, his excuse just now was a little reluctant, and the knight in front of him was also a young man.
"Mr. Taylor, do you still have that magic potion?" Zhao Xi suddenly asked, after all, according to the introduction of the purple potion, it should be possible to restore the seriously injured Vic to health.
"Although its raw materials are a little scarce, there is still some stock in the clan. Taylor explained, "But Vic can't swallow anything at all, and even if he gives him a drink, he'll have to wait until he's sober, but that's at night at the earliest." “
"I see. Zhao Xi also figured out the key, nodded and didn't continue to ask.
When Zhao Xi was about to turn around and leave, Taylor handed him a new bottle of purple potion, Zhao Xi was a little puzzled, after all, for him, this bottle of potion should have more people in need.
"It's going to be an uphill battle, and remember that your mission isn't to fight us to the end, but there's more important things to do. Taylor stared at Zhao Xi's eyes and said slowly.
"I see. Zhao Xi didn't refuse again, but took the medicine and put it in his arms, nodded and said.
"Erin is a good girl. “
Just when Zhao Xi couldn't stand the sad atmosphere and wanted to escape, Taylor said such a sentence coldly.
When he heard this, Zhao Xi almost fell to the ground without standing firmly, and glanced back at Taylor, with a little helplessness in his eyes.
"I'm not wrong, Erin is a good wife no matter how you look at it, isn't she?" Taylor said with a laugh.
"How could I know about such a thing. Zhao Xi directly gave Taylor the back of the head and fled without looking back.
Taylor looked at Zhao Xi's hurried back, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Hey, stinky old man, it's not enough to dump me with a group of women and children, even my granddaughter has to be thrown to me, and I don't feel ashamed to panic, of course I have to do my own things. Zhao Xi muttered as he walked, a little depressed.
Although he said so, Zhao Xi still hoped that his acquaintances could return safely, and when he thought of this, Zhao Xi thought a little about Cornelia and them.
