Chapter 488: Antoine's Daughter
Marx temporarily left the castle to avoid the limelight, which had been discussed beforehand, after all, Marx had confronted Tzeentch's incarnation.
And there is no shortage of masters in the Paladin Expeditionary Force, who have the experience of fighting Chaos, and it is indeed a bit risky to let Marx continue to live under their eyes all the time.
In this regard, the demon hunter was not unguarded, in private, both he and Yang Yuefan carefully observed Marx and those refugees to prevent signs of corruption.
But Marx's spirit and will have always been as strong as a flame, and even with the barrier of the skin, most professionals can see at a glance the noble soul hidden under his flesh and blood.
If he is willing to convert to God, he may even become the Holy Spirit in one step!
Fortunately, Marx had been planning for a while for this transfer, and when Ji Wanbing and Fan Li left, the refugee leader with eight-pack abs came to visit.
"I heard the sentry below say that you have returned safely, thank goodness you are safe, and the elves thought you were dead, only the little girl of Epfilal was convinced that you were still alive." Dressed in a black aristocratic attire, Marx looked particularly energetic: "Fortunately, your companions have confidence in you. ”
"A new force can easily begin to collapse from within, and you and your companions have shown noble qualities, and I think we will soon see the light of day." Marx casually hung his coat on a metal stand at the door, revealing the silk shirt underneath.
"Mr. Marx, your taste has improved a lot more than before." Xu Yichen looked at Marx's valuable clothes and made a rare joke: "Have you learned to receive subsidies other than allowances like those tax officials at the port?" ”
"I'd rather do that, but sometimes the reality is far more dramatic than the plot." Marx smiled bitterly and sat down opposite the demon hunter: "Juliet, Antoine's daughter, the only daughter, this is the dress she gave me. ”
Xu Yichen remembered the girl with delicate facial features.
The last time Marx mobilized refugees in the square to unite against those monsters, it was she who immediately hugged Marx, who was attacked by the infected.
Comparing the girl's appearance with Antoine's round face several times, Xu Yichen couldn't help but ask with some hesitation: "Biological one?" ”
Marx felt that he would never be able to keep up with the brain circuits of these Serisians, and if he had the opportunity in the future, he would definitely go to that magical land to see for himself, what kind of educational environment can cultivate so many, wonderful, no, talents!
"No kidding, that's not the point, I've convinced Juliet to return to her father for the time being, presumably with us, Antoine is better able to keep her safe." Marx sighed, feeling that this matter was a bit complicated: "Let's get down to business, I'll leave here tomorrow and go to Moonshadow Village with the witches." ”
"Moon Shadow Village?" Xu Yichen didn't expect Yang Yuefan to have such a big influence there.
"Witches have always lacked security, and that small village of Seris has more than ten professionals, and it's not far from our castle." Marx smiled: "Moreover, they are short of money, and the witches have money. ”
"I've already arranged for the refugees, and the rest of the repair work in the castle will take about half a month to complete, during which you just need to ensure the order of life of those refugees."
"Besides, Ted, the leader of the fugitives that your companions brought back last time, is an ambitious man, and you can let him manage the living quarters outside the castle while I'm away." Marx carefully selected his successor, a population of nearly 3,000 people, who relied entirely on these professions to have a stable life.
He feared that one day, the patience of these professionals would be exhausted, so Marx did his best to make them behave.
Of course, if Marx had known how these players thought about human resources in their hearts, there would have been no such pressure.
These mortals work nearly twelve hours a day, leveling the land, repairing walls, finding water, and tending to the loot that players bring back.
They also select the ore from the pits, smash large chunks of it, and transport it to the blacksmith's workshop of the dwarven Groin, where it is to be refined into ingots and stored.
Not to mention, the strongest of these young men were individually selected and trained as soldiers on a daily basis.
And all this, the only thing that needs to be paid is food, enough food for these people to eat.
"You should rest early, I'll take my leave." After giving what he had to say, Marx left the castle and insisted on living with the refugees outside the city.
However, it must have been a sleepless night for the demon hunters, and when Marx left, the half-elf Radia, who had been waiting outside the door for a long time, immediately walked in.
It wasn't until Marx had gone far enough that Radia lowered her voice and said to the demon hunters, "I knew you couldn't die!" Does what I said before still count? ”
Xu Yichen couldn't help but feel a little sore when he looked at the half-elves, but out of concern for the foreign forces, he still asked, "Have you got in touch with the elves of the Ayn-El clan?" Did they have any recent deals with the Elves? ”
The half-elf nodded, and said impatiently: "I found a point of contact for them in the forest, every three days a guy in armor will come over to check the nearby environment, I didn't communicate further, my ancient elf language is not very good, and I don't know if you are really not dead." ”
"Whether they have any further contact with the elves, it's not for me to know, maybe you can get information from Legolas, he has a high status in the elves." Radia quickly said, "If you are the talker, then I must quickly go to that contact point and communicate with the other party, after a long time I am afraid that those elves of Ayn-El will give up that contact point!" ”
The half-elves saw as many as a dozen professionals in the headquarters of the Retribution Warband, and various supplies were transported here by the witches at any cost, which made Radia even more convinced that the demon hunters were not lying.
Although there is some deviation in understanding, to a certain extent, Xu Yichen did not lie, but the two sides had some misunderstanding about the time of the transaction.
"You're doing a good job, I'll keep my promise and go get in touch with them!" The Demon Hunter patted the half-elf on the shoulder with a broad smile.
