Chapter 494: The Hope of Enlightenment
Next, the first thing I want to do is to go to the imperial city and swear that I will always protect the safety of the people, and get the title of [Recognition of the Common People] in my hands; The sea had already told me that he would immediately put the area around the station under my name and immediately start collecting protection fees and making a profit.
With the protection of Haizong's forces, I can basically be a carefree shopkeeper, without worrying about being squeezed out of my temporary position or being deprived of my title if I don't meet the standards, all I have to do is sit and wait to collect gold coins and prestige; Of course, the sea will not ask me for a share of these gold coins, but he asks me to use all the prestige I have gained here for gang guard recruitment, after all, to upgrade the full level of gangs, the guard team must be fully organized, and there must be enough reserve resources in case of emergency.
When I had done this, I did as Festic said, and went outside the village of a small town far east of the world; This is his hometown and the starting point for his adventure.
As he says, it was a spearman from the village guard who had led him to the path of the dragon lance, and because he was saved from the beast, Festik was determined to become a spearman as strong as him.
Entering the village, there are still sporadic players walking around here, I passed several players, and walked straight to an old woman who was spinning at the entrance of the village.
"Auntie, I'll ask you about something."
The old woman raised her wrinkled face and looked at me, her old age made her hearing loss a little, she put her hand next to her ear and made a trumpet and asked loudly, "What did you say?" ”
I looked at her helplessly, and could only repeat my question in an amplified voice: "I said! I'll ask you something! ”
"Alas! What the hell! Bullying the elderly? ”
As soon as I finished the question, I heard a few guards running over with weapons and looking at me in a circle.
"Don't, misunderstand, misunderstand......" I hurriedly raised my hands to show that my people and animals were harmless, it wasn't that I couldn't beat a few of their low-level guards, but the spearman Festik said also belonged to the guards, and once I messed with them, I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to ask what I was going to ask.
Before they could continue pestering me, an old man with gray sideburns walked from the back of the group, although he looked older, his strong body and iron-white armor still had a majesty that could not be ignored.
He pushed aside the guards and walked up to me, and the guards looked very respectful of him.
The old man looked me up and down, and then recognized my identity very well, and said to the guards behind him: "Don't be rude, this is a hero who has been appointed by the imperial city and carries the title of [Recognition of the Common People]. ”
Oh? This title also makes the guards respect???
I've been avoiding them before, but there is still a day to turn over??
The guards nodded and took a half-step back, freeing up a lot of space around me.
I hurriedly waved my hand and said politely: "Don't be so restrained, it was just a misunderstanding just now, I came to inquire about something with this aunt." ”
"If you have anything to ask, just tell me directly, my name is Luo Mushan, and I am the captain of the guards in this village." The old man bowed slightly, and responded to my doubts very politely.
Of course, I couldn't ask for an NPC to take the initiative to answer it, so I shared my own questions and dishes.
"You mean, you're looking for a gunslinger named Xu?" Romushan didn't seem to understand what I meant, but was sure of my answer with me.
I nodded in affirmation, although after all these years, this person is probably no longer alive; But I'd like to know more or less about it.
Luo Mushan shook his head regretfully: "I know the person you are looking for, he is a guard stationed in this village a long time ago, and the reason why I know this person is because each of our guards will be recorded in the history of the guards; However, when there was a wolf plague outside the village, he went out with the team to suppress it, and never returned. ”
A dozen level wolfs can make them shroud in horse leather, and the person who made Festik make up his mind is also a nameless soldier.
This is the reality, when I was a child, I thought that my dreams and idols were so great, but when I look back when I grow up, I will find that they are just a passing cloud that is not worth mentioning.
"That's ......, that's a pity......" I lowered my sadness, and hurriedly said goodbye to them as I prepared to leave.
"Hero," Luo Mushan called out to me as he was leaving.
I looked back at him and said with a smile, "Is there anything else Captain Luo is up to?" ”
He looked a little embarrassed, but after a few hesitations, he still mustered up the courage to come over and say, "Although it is a little abrupt and impolite...... However, I still implore the heroes to help us. ”
"Why should Captain Luo be polite, but it's okay to say it."
Hearing that I was so happy, Luo Mushan suddenly looked surprised: "That's the case, there will be a wolf plague outside the village every few years, and every time it appears, we have to divide our troops to go out to encircle and suppress in order to ensure the safety of the villagers' entry and exit; But those wolves are particularly fierce, and many of the soldiers will die in battle......; However, after fighting with those evil wolves for a long time, we have mastered the reason for this situation, that is, there is a evil wolf spirit who has practiced for hundreds of years outside the two mountains, and he can use trees and flowers to make evil wolf bodies, and when the number is enough, he will come and hurt the innocent, and we can't fight against it many times ...... encirclement and suppression, so "
"So hopefully I'll kill that wolf spirit?"
My interruption made him a little alarmed, and he quickly nodded and said, "Don't be surprised, although this is the duty of our guards, we are really a little powerless, so we bother the hero...... If there is anything difficult for the hero, I can go with you in person, and I can also provide you with the supplies you need, and ......"
"No, you don't." I smiled and waved my hand, and gently patted Captain Luo's shoulder with my right hand, making him put his heart down: "You just need to tell me the coordinates, and I'll take care of the rest." ”
Hearing me say this, Captain Luo's face was overjoyed, and the guards around him were also excited: "Thank you so much!" With a powerful hero like you, the safety of the people is guaranteed! ”
I was prompted to accept a quest, but it wasn't a hidden quest, it was just a very ordinary quest, and the rewards were just bits and pieces that I ignored.
I set off with the expectation of a bunch of people, and it only took me ten minutes to climb over the two mountains, and according to the coordinates, I found the evil wolf spirit who was squatting on the edge of the cliff to hunt the rabbit.
This guy does look a little weird in appearance, and there is some black gas floating around his body.
"Level 55." I shook my head and said to myself, for those village guards, the level 55 mini-boss is simply the demon king in the world, and there is really no capital to fight.
And this guy has a wide range of hatred, and after a long time, he noticed my movements, and flew towards me with his mouth open.
"Whew!!"
……
"Captain Luo! I'm back! ”
Outside the entrance of the village, I shouted for Captain Luo to come out to receive the goods.
This voice was not only those guards and Captain Luo, but also the NPCs and many players who ran out to see the excitement, and everyone looked outside in horror inside the village wall, looking at the situation outside in disbelief.
The fierce wolf spirit like a big demon is being grabbed by the back of my neck and fluttering in the air at this moment, completely without the arrogant and cruel image of daily life, and completely looks like a lost dog.
"Ahh
Even the screams are so vivid.
Although this beast had been captured by me, Captain Luo and the others still didn't dare to approach, but shouted in the wall: "Hero! It's this wolf! Kill it! ”
"Oh? You don't want to live? ”
"Don't! No! Kill it! ”
It's really disappointing, I also said that you would be happier if you could catch it alive, and I knew that I wouldn't have to go all the way with it so botherfully.
I shook my head helplessly, and then indifferently reached out and grabbed the wolf's head.
"Click."
The tens of thousands of orange-red critical damage were dumbfounded, and the low-level players were also stunned.
After the head was wrenched, the guards ran out cheering for joy, and shouted for me with tears in their eyes as they surrounded the dead corpse and whipped them with weapons.
"If it weren't for a hero as powerful as you, I really don't know how many more brothers we would have to be killed by this abominable wolf, I'm really ......" Captain Luo said, tears began to fill his eyes.
I quickly stopped his sensationalism, and generously handed over the disposition of the wolf's carcass to them.
Although it is a little disgraceful to bully the small, this feeling of being surrounded by people is really refreshing~
The villagers also expressed their gratitude, and the children ran and jumped against the guards' legs, looking up at me with big eyes full of adoration.
One of the children was a little timid, but he still came over and grabbed my trouser leg and asked cutely: "Hero~Hero~, are you the general of the Imperial City?" ”
I half-squatted on one leg and reached out and touched his head: "No, I'm not a general. ”
"What are you, the hero?"
Although this kind of words sometimes sound awkward, it feels very simple when it comes out of the mouth of a child, and I don't have any thoughts about disrespect, only care for their true appearance.
"I'm ...... [Dragon Lance Holy Envoy]."
My answer gave his eyes a strange light, and he pursed his lips and was silent for a long time, then raised his head and looked at me firmly.
"Hero, I will also become a [Dragon Lance Holy Envoy] as strong as you in the future!"
The surrounding guards praised the child and praised him for his ambition.
I was the only one who looked down at him blankly, a little overwhelmed.
This scene, as if it was prepared for me to recreate the scene, let Fetic stick to the road all the way to this day, I am afraid it is this longing and awe.
I nodded and looked directly at him with trusting eyes: "Then you have to work hard, because ...... There's endless world out there waiting to be explored. ”
"Hmm!"
Bidding farewell to this different little village, and bidding farewell to Captain Luo's thousand thanks, I embarked on the journey to the next location.
I don't know if the next site will make me feel more deeply.
