Chapter 17: The Strongest and Supreme Ace (5)
There was a lot of noise, and the same adventurer asked further questions.
"In other words, Lord Lozfar won't go to the front either?"
"That's right. I must stay in the rear and also protect Lord Wu Jiu, because there must be a person of steel-level strength in the rear to protect me, if I let Lord Krantil stay in the rear and I participate in the front line, then the rear support speed will be much slower, so as a magic chanter, I must stay in the rear, which is also to maximize combat power. ”
The atmosphere has changed. There was annoyance in it, they intellectually understood that what Lozfar was saying was helpless, but emotionally they could not understand it. Even if the work of adventurers is to shed blood at the cost of money, they have long been conscious of the possibility of dying, but when it comes to taking money to sell their lives, the nobles should be the same, since they want the people to pay taxes, they should not hide in the safe imperial capital, they should be the first to stand on the front line to save the people.
Especially what does it mean to take one of the strongest combat forces of the empire to protect what princess?
When the dissatisfaction with the nobles, especially Wu Jiu, gradually increased, Lozfar took a step back, no matter what he said now, it was only an excuse in the ears of the adventurers, unlike the soldiers and knights of the Empire, adventurers would not obey the orders of the Empire, and because of this, another man would speak for him, and that person was Crotta.
"I understand everyone's dissatisfaction, but before that, I hope you just need to remember this, the cost of gathering everyone this time is not paid by the royal family, but by Rosentier's personal property, and the alliance with His Excellency Lin Feng is also thanks to Lord Crantiel's dedication, and the Great Magician of the Empire, Lord Lozfar, also decided to participate in the greedy crusade after this, yes, I think the same way about the nobles as everyone else, but I also want everyone to know that not all nobles abandon the people."
Crota's speech calmed the mood a little, as the adventurers felt that at least they should not appear indignant in front of Crota.
“...... Speaking of which, I remembered that before I could shoot the arrow, I had one more job to entrust to someone. Lord Crota, I wonder if I can borrow one of your Blue Roses? ”
"No problem, Master Klan. Rob West! ”
"In!"
Following Crota's call, Robosie responded with an imposing voice, his eyes focused on the young man in white full-body armor.
"I know this matter is dangerous, but I still have to ask you, lead a team of 100 people and several Blonze-level adventurers, please keep watch around and act as a pioneer."
Among the gathered adventurers, there were voices such as "nonsense" and "chaos". Dispersing troops to guard when they don't know where the other side will attack is no longer called danger, but almost equivalent to ordering them to die.
If the other side launches a surprise attack, let alone counterattack, even retreat is almost an impossible task.
"Please, this vanguard is very important, we know the time of the attack, but we don't know the location of the attack, if we can know the opponent's move one step earlier, it will undoubtedly be of great help to the battle situation."
Faced with Crantiel's request, Robosie immediately replied:
"Understood! Even if I have to pay with my life, I will definitely complete the mission! ”
It's no wonder that everyone is looking at Robosie with the eyes of a madman, and Lu Luwei and Grotta, who are members of the Blue Rose, are silent.
“...... Wouldn't it be too dangerous for him to lead these troops alone, and if I could, could I go with him? ”
"No, Your Excellency Lin Feng, our precious combat power, the only one who can drive the magic weapon [Prophecy] is Your Excellency, if Your Excellency makes any mistakes, there is no way to even obtain new information."
"Let me go."
"Huh? Lisa...... May I? ”
The name Lin Feng said made the adventurers puzzled, and not only that, but even the heads of the knights who participated in the meeting had three question marks.
"Well, I don't care, and besides, I have Parker by my side."
"Okay, but your own safety is your priority."
"Thank you for your trouble, then, can you ask each team to send only the leader to the front?"
Looking at the adventurers and knights gathered in front, Lin Feng retreated and could only be busy doing another job.
That's a greeting.
Many people who looked like deputy team leaders greeted Lin Feng one after another, they reported the name of the team, first praised their ability to use unknown magic weapons, and then said that they hoped to meet next time, wanted to hear their adventure stories and so on.
The meaning of these acts is equivalent to exchanging business cards, but there is only one difference, that is, the exchange of business cards leaves evidence of the meeting, while verbal greetings can only leave memories.
The important thing is the name of the team and what level of adventurer the other party is, of course, memory and concentration can only be assigned to high-level adventurers, and Mithril-level adventurers will also come to salute, but because the level of contact in the future is different, Lin Feng thinks that it doesn't matter if you forget.
It's like the boss of a large company who receives a business card from a business specialist in a small and medium-sized enterprise, maybe he loses it around the corner?
Even so, he didn't want people to change their attitude because they thought they would look at the object, so he carefully paid attention to greeting everyone, shaking hands with the people who came to greet him, patting them on the shoulder with a very familiar pretence, and laughing heartily at boring flattery, and complimenting each other.
However, the move that didn't matter to Lin Feng made the knights who were disciplined as an iron rule unhappy.
Lin Feng's gaze followed the back of the person who had just greeted him.
What an exaggerated look......
Lin Feng couldn't help but think so in his heart, although he clearly knew that this was a different world, no matter how strange things were, it was not surprising, but he was obviously a stout man, but he had a big pink hair on his head.
Lin Feng knew that adventurers would dye the equipment on their bodies in eye-catching colors, but it was the first time he saw someone even dye their hair with that kind of eye-catching eyes, probably because he had lost his mind in order to highlight himself.
It is said that the imperial capital has a large number of adventurers, so in order to attract attention, it is necessary to dress up a little more eye-catching.
It doesn't seem like there's any rejection or bad evaluation of hair dyeing...... It is also forbidden to dye hair at school – it might as well be ........
Lin Feng is a relatively open member of the students, but some school rules will also be followed, so it is inevitable that it is not appropriate to dye his hair in this color, but it seems that the world does not have any strict requirements in this regard, after all, even children have dyed their hair, so it doesn't matter if you dye one yourself.
Lin Feng decided to return to the imperial capital afterwards to dye his favorite red hair, because even if he was a nobleman, even Lozfar's hair was different from ordinary people.
