"Tuk Tuk!"

Phil was lying in bed and dazed when he heard a knock on the door.

He fell asleep unconsciously in bed last night, and he was indeed a little too tired these days, this is the first time that he has not slept in the days since he was born.

Of course, this is because his physique is different from that of ordinary humans, and he does not need to sleep often.

He shook his head, got out of bed and went to open the door.

It feels so good to wake up, he feels full of energy and strength now, but he is a little hungry.

"Good afternoon! Mr. Phil!"

He opened the door and saw a smiling Setia greeting him.

In her hand she held a large iron plate covered by a lid.

"Good afternoon, Setia. ”

Phil smiled in response, and Phil felt his smile be much more natural.

"I was worried when I saw that you hadn't been back for two days yesterday morning, so I went to ask Ebanjo from the library just now, and he said that you had been back last night. ”

Setia said.

"Ah, yes, I'm fascinated by the book. ”

Phil took the large iron plate from Setia's hand and continued.

"Don't stand outside, come in and say. ”

"Okay, thank you, Mr. Phil. ”

Setia smiled sweetly.

Phil placed the large iron plate on the table and asked Setia.

"What is this?"

"Yes, Mr. Phil. Saithia coughed softly, "It's noon now, and I didn't bother you in the morning to see that you were resting, this is lunch for you." ”

With that, she opened the big iron plate.

Steaming whole roast chicken, fragrant hot soup and vegetable snacks.

A hearty lunch.

Setia looked at the clock and said.

"Please slow down, I'll come back to you in an hour, Master Bugatio has something to tell you. ”

"Okay, no problem. ”

An hour later, it was just after one o'clock in the afternoon, and Jimenez might have revealed a little bit of his true purpose for being so good, but the Jimenez family did have a strong ability to win hearts and minds, like this hearty lunch.

He nibbled on a piece of chicken thigh.

"It smells so good. ”

Phil was amazed.

......

Outside, a light rain was drizzling, and the whole sky was covered in clouds, which was very different from the sunny yesterday.

The air was exceptionally humid, Phil sniffled.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Phil and Setia walked down the dirt path, one foot deep and one foot shallow.

"It's already October, and it's about to start winter. ”

Setia said.

"yes, it's starting to get cold. ”

"The Inhumans are coming, they're making a lot of noise, and it's not going to be a good winter. ”

Setia's face was solemn, and she seemed to be a little worried.

"Is Mr. Bugatio going to tell me about this?"

Phil asked, looking at Setia.

Setia shook her head and said, "I don't know, it should be a more important thing." ”

"Good afternoon, Setia!"

A stout young man with staggered hair approached him and greeted Setia.

"Good afternoon, Puth. ”

Setia pursed her lips and smiled.

"Are you going to the ring again?"

"Yes, alas, the pressure from above is too great now. Puth said with a sigh.

He glanced at Phil, and Setya saw that he hurriedly introduced Purs.

"Ahh ”

With that, she turned around and said to Phil.

"This is Puth Freeman, the family's chief instructor, responsible for the training of the family's warriors. ”

"It's a blessing. ”

Puth held out his hand and said.

"Fortunately. ”

Phil shook his hand, and his hand was so strong that it wrapped around Phil's palm like a pincer.

Phil's face didn't change, he still kept smiling, and he used some force in his hands.

Purs, quietly withdrawing his hand, patted Phil on the shoulder, and said to Setya with a smile.

"I'm in the ring, goodbye. ”

"Goodbye. ”

After Purse walked away, she whispered to Phil, "He is a relation, and his father is the patriarch's younger brother." Setya shook her head after speaking: "No matter where you are, you can't avoid this problem. ”

Phil nodded thoughtfully.

The atmosphere on the road was a little inexplicably dreary, and Setya seemed to be in a low mood after meeting this Pus.

Not far, Setia led Phil to the room where he had spoken to Bugatio.

"This is it, please come in. ”

She smiled.

"Thank you, Setia. ”

Phil thanked him softly.

Setia bowed slightly to Phil and turned away with her long legs.

Phila opened the door, and Bugatio sat in the same position he had previously sat looking at him with a smile on his face, only this time instead of the old leather armor of the city guards, but the iconic little white gold gown of the Jimenez family.

"Phil, please be seated. ”

Bugatio made a "please" gesture to Phil.

"How are you feeling in the family these days?"

Seeing Phil sit down in front of Bugatio, Bugatio asked with a smile.

"It feels good that my family takes good care of me, especially Setia. ”

Phil clicked on Setia.

Bugatio nodded in satisfaction.

"Setya is our maid specially arranged for you, if you have any needs, just ask her. ”

He tapped his fingers lightly on the table and continued.

"You know that the Inhumans are going to attack the continent in November, right?"

"I know. ”

Phil nodded in reply.

"The Inhumans are so much that the front line we sent to lose contact with them just yesterday. ”

Bugatio pulled out a moving sheepskin scroll and spread it on the table.

Dense black dots were scrolling forward in the scroll, and although it was difficult to see the details from a long distance, the number of them made Phil gasp.

"This is the news that came back before they lost contact. ”

Bugatio said worriedly.

"This time they are going to make a real move, just a few small troops were sent out in the past few years and were easily repulsed. The Inhumans are strong individuals, but I didn't expect them to multiply to this point. ”

Bugatio sighed, and he glanced at Phil, who was listening to him solemnly, not saying a word.

"We're the third, Phil. ”

"What?"

"We are the third town in the Inhumans' path. The towns before us were almost defenseless, and they didn't even detect the Inhumans attacking. I've sent someone to inform them. ”

"We have no chance of winning head-on. ”

Phil replied, touching his chin.

Although it seems that Brell Town is relatively prosperous, it is not clear how much combat power there is, looking at the number of Inhuman horrors on this scroll, you can see that there is no chance of winning with your ass.

"Yes, and there's no way around it. ”

Bugatio put away the scroll and continued.

"The town of Brell is so populated that it is almost impossible to transfer civilians through portals. But if we abandon the town of Brell and run away on our own, we will end worse than if we die here. ”

"Why?"

"Because all the Jimenez family has all the heritage here. ”

Bugatio said with a wry smile: "Only if the town of Brell exists, Jimenez can exist, civilians are the foundation of our existence, our money is earned from them, and if we flee to other places, we will be sucked by other nobles." ”

Phil nodded in agreement.

Bugatio continued: "So we can only fight, and it is better to die on the battlefield than to die slowly." We have asked for reinforcements from Lei Guangcheng, and their army is not expected to arrive until mid-November, which means that we will be fighting alone for fifteen days. ”

Bugatio leaned forward, stared into Phil's eyes, and said word by word.

"Phil, the family needs you, we need the backbone. ”

"What do you want me to do?"

"The family has a group of swordsman apprentices in their hands, I hope you can be their chief instructor, I believe in your ability, a month's time, no matter what method is used, it is good to pull out the seedlings and help them, I hope these children will be the backbone of the family." ”

When Phil heard this, he had a headache, and gave these apprentices to him as an impostor, didn't he cheat them.

"I'm sorry Phil, but I gave you such a difficult task when I first joined the family. But this was really the biggest crisis in the family's history, and everyone else had their own tasks to do. ”

Bugatio said sincerely.

It's really not impossible to accept this task, there are some training experiences and skills in his memory, and he can use them, Phil thought to himself.

He pondered for a moment, then agreed.

Hearing the news, he didn't think about running away directly. He didn't want to be a coward, and it wasn't his style to retreat, even if he was caught up in the Jimenez family's design.

Maybe it's design, he has a vague feeling that he is living in a coincidence.

Ever since there were no gold coins in town, the Jimenez family always gave them warmth at the right time every time they needed it most. Until now, it was a coincidence that he had arranged for his previous instructor to meet with him before asking him to be an instructor, that he was secretly competing with him and that he was a parallel import.

This is what I owe them, and it should be done, at least I don't need to be idle anymore since I was born, and this task is not too arduous, and I haven't been cannon fodder.

According to the impression of the nobles in his memory, he did not believe that the Jimenez family did not leave any backhand as he said now, and the evaluation of the nobles in his memory had not been missed.

"Please give me all the information about the Inhumans, including the route and date of their invasion. ”

Phil is colorful.

"No problem, I'll be ready to send you here, and the apprentices are ready for me to take them to the training ground in town. ”

Bugatio replied.

"Huh, don't you train in the family?"

Phil wondered.

Bugatio shook his head and said.

"Stabilize the civilians in the town, they also know some information, and use force to reassure them. ”

Phil nodded, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart that the Jimenez family was still thinking very comprehensively.

"Is there anything else you need? Phil?"

Phil shook his head.

"You're ready, I'll let Setia take you to the training ground, passing by the town's bazaar on the way, if you have anything you want to buy, let Setia pay for it. ”

Bugatio smiled appropriately.

"Then I'll go and prepare first. ”

Phil said goodbye and turned and walked out of the room.

It was still raining outside, and he looked up at the sky, and a raindrop fell into his right eye, which became a blur.

He blinked and clenched his fists.

This is the last quiet before the storm.
