Chapter 70: The Short Sword

In the dilapidated tent, Lott couldn't help but be a little stunned under Liao Qi's sudden series of words.

As if to give the boy time to react, Liao Qi just waited quietly.

It was a few seconds before Lot's voice finally rang out again.

"You... You gave up the position of patriarch? ”

The young man asked in an incredulous tone, starting with Liao Qi's first sentence.

But soon, he shook his head vigorously again.

"That's not right..."

In a flash, Lott focused all his attention on Liao Qi's words in the second half.

"Goblins..."

"What did you just say! Near our gathering place, there are caves of goblins!? ”

Repeating the name of the monster.

At this time, the expression that appeared on the young man's face finally made Liao Qi on the other side a little satisfied.

Anxiety, worry, and...

It's like a feeling of anger that erupts in an instant when you know what you cherish and protect, but is being watched by others.

"Where are they?"

"How many?"

"Have we been discovered by them?"

"Nana, does she know?"

Questions kept coming out of the boy's mouth like cannonballs.

Liao Qi looked at the emotional Lot, pressed his hand first, and signaled him not to worry.

Well...

At least...

There is no thought of backing down.

This is a test for Liao Qi for Lot, if the boy is only afraid and evasive here, then even if he knows that the other party will grow in the future, or even transform...

Liao Qi will definitely do it, and he turned around and left without hesitation.

He doesn't mind giving him a boost and help on the other side's path to becoming a legendary witcher, but if even his "nature" needs to be reversed...

Liao Qi doesn't think that this kind of thing can be done on his own.

Fortunately...

The worst didn't happen.

"For now, you're still safe for the time being, after all, you've just migrated to this place, and even if the goblins want to find out, they won't be so fast."

"But if I settle down for a long time, I think it's only a matter of time before I find here."

After listening to Liao Qi's words, Lott first breathed a sigh of relief.

But after that, the nervousness on the young man's face did not decrease much because of this, and he said quickly:

"You... You just said that you want me to go with you to defeat these goblins, right? ”

"So what are you waiting for, let's go!"

As he spoke, Lott began to organize the clothes in the tent, as well as a few light armors and blades that could be called "equipment".

Belch...

"Just in case, I'm afraid you didn't hear clearly, I'll repeat, this crusade was initiated by me, a human being, privately for you, so these two foreign demons around me..."

"You don't have to say this again!"

Lott snorted.

"We humans have never expected to get help from other demons!"

With a slightly hostile and distrustful gaze, the young man glanced at Sophie and Zero who were around Liao Qi.

And this time, zero is okay to say.

But the fairy woman was not happy.

"Giggles... Young man, then let me ask you, who brought you the materials that you can rely on for your survival now? ”

Sophie made no secret of the irony in her tone.

"It's... It's all Carl's bastard fool's errand, I... We don't need any of that either..."

"Alright."

Liao Qi interrupted the young man who was choked by Sophie and was a little speechless in time, ending this meaningless recklessness.

"Although we say that we are going to crusade, but before that, we still have to prepare first."

"Ready?"

After only seeing it for a while, Lott had already put on all the equipment, and this kind of efficiency made Liao Qi a little impressed.

But it's the thick nerves of the other party...

Facing Lott's puzzled look, Liao Qi spread his hands.

"Otherwise, are you going to go straight away? Our purpose is to crusade, not to repel them, in other words, to bring them down..."

"None of them will be left."

When these last four words came out of Liao Qi's mouth, an impossible look immediately appeared on the face of the young man opposite.

"No kidding!"

"People like you, who have been pampered in the Blood Clan Castle all day long, will not know how powerful they are, and we humans have no other way than to buy time to escape from them!"

Lott's expression was full of hatred, but more of it was still a sense of helpless grievance.

The number of their human race on the island will gradually decline to the current field, and goblins account for a large part of the factor.

These green-skinned creatures are as brutal and greedy as locusts.

In terms of single combat effectiveness, Lott is confident that it is not impossible to defeat two enemies with one, or even with one enemy against three.

But this does not mean that the rest of the villagers can be like him, not to mention women and children.

And the alien humans on the other side right now actually say that they want to annihilate the goblins?

"Hmph, if you say that the two demons next to you will also make a move, then I will still believe you, but if it is only on us humans, you are simply in..."

"Speaking of which, where is your arsenal, can you show me?"

Liao Qi didn't want to explain to Lotte anymore, the truth is always the best textbook.

Today he...

It's time to teach this future legendary witcher a lesson.

And still in the name of...

The way of the "witcher".

Arsenal...

After hearing Liao Qi's words, Lott also shifted his attention for the time being, his face was a little uncontrollable, and he pointed towards Liao Qi and around.

"The tent I live in is here after the rainstorm the day before yesterday, and all the equipment in the gathering place is here."

"Well, well..."

It seems that the indigenous humans on the island really suffered a great loss of vitality after the rainstorm that night, which can be regarded as a major natural disaster, no wonder even the important position of the patriarch had to be given up.

The status quo is like this, and Liao Qi does not complain.

He looked around, and from a few scattered mallets, hammers, shovels, etc., he picked out a short sword, which was still sharpened.

"Zero, put this away."

Liao Qi handed over this short sword, which was almost one-third of a long sword and slightly longer than a dagger, to the maid.

"Wait a minute, you... You wouldn't be, want to fight with this weapon, right? ”

"It's just Karl's coward, a tool built to cut vines, and against goblins, you still have to use a long sword that can give full play to the advantages of our human size!"

Lott was a little sneering at Liao Qi for finally picking out only such a thing.

"Well, yes."

"Then zero, you work hard, this long sword, stay with you."

Liao Qi said, and also picked up a normal long sword from the tent and handed it to Zero, but as for the previous short sword, it was not taken because of this.

"You..."

After watching Liao Qi's operation, Lott suddenly became angry.

Because it was obvious that he still didn't listen to his own advice.

But also present, the fairy woman, Sophie, put the gaze of her green eyes on the short sword pinned to Zero's waist.

After that, she had a thoughtful look in her eyes.
