Chapter 32: Selected Commando
I walked over to the riding pen, looked at the scarred riding lizard, hesitated, and still didn't take out the healing potion to feed it. After all, judging by its injuries, I'm afraid it would take at least half of the healing potions on my body to heal.
Now players who generally do not have the ability to heal can only recuperate to recover their injuries and feed the lizard with healing potions, which is too luxurious at this stage. Although the recuperation fee is longer, there is no need to use the lizard after returning to Demon Blade City, so it is better to let it recuperate for a few more days. I casually threw a gold coin to the keeper of the riding pen, enough to rent the stable and take care of the riding lizard for ten days.
Back at the Martial Arts Tower, I wanted to ask one of the instructors what the latest assignments were, but I was told that Instructor Crest was waiting for me.
When I entered Instructor Crester's room, I was surprised to find that the instructor was not the only one waiting for me.
Standing with Instructor Crest, the other Dark Elf turned out to be an old acquaintance of mine, the family official who helped me advance to the Warrior - Ayton Darkflame Battle Commander.
Instructor Crest reprimanded me with a gloomy face: "Student, you actually left Demon Blade City without any orders during your training at the academy and acted on your own. Such undisciplined behavior has never happened in any previous class of students! ”
He said angrily, "You should be punished so that your stupid mind can understand the rules!" ”
"However," the instructor's tone changed, "the Ninth Family's Dark Flame Master Mother has specially assigned a family official to intercede for you. So, the punishment for you is temporarily pressed. This one," he said, waving his hand toward Commander Ayton, "brought the Darkflame Master's instructions to you. ”
The Battle Commander of Ayton took two steps forward and said coldly, "Civilian Scorpio, the Flame Lady already knows about your unauthorized actions against trolls in the Barren Dome......"
I was surprised that these NPCs knew that I was acting alone outside of Demonblade City. Although I know of a "probe" spell that creates a magical field around a distant target creature, allowing the caster to see or hear what to know. However, if the target creature has an intelligence of 12 or higher, it is possible to detect a magic sensing field. Besides, my intelligence is 20+, and if someone uses a "probe" spell on me, it is impossible for me not to detect it. Moreover, I am just an ordinary commoner, and there is no reason for the family to pay special attention to me.
The commander stared at me fiercely, and said reluctantly, "Your actions have made our Dark Flame family please Goddess Rose......
"What?" I cried out in amazement.
The commander was very dissatisfied with my faux pas, but he suppressed his anger and explained: "When the Lady of Darkness was praying to Lady Rose, the Goddess's handmaiden, the Wax Melting Demon, appeared and told the Mother that a dark elf of our family had pleased Lady Rose with vicious trickery and extermination of the trolls. But the dark elf was just a lowly commoner, and the goddess would not bless the family for it. Therefore, the master mother wants to give that commoner, that is, you, a chance, as long as you can prove your strength, the family will give you better treatment, and an identity suitable for your ability! ”
When the barren vault burned the troll group and reached level 6, it seemed to have the feeling of being spied on, and there was a sense of coercion, but at that time, I was in the excitement of upgrading and ignored the past, and now that I think about it, is it ......
The commander suddenly turned his body, turned his back to Instructor Crest, and began to sign in front of him: "Idiot! I told you to be restrained, but you have to be so flamboyant, don't think that you will be cruel and cruel to please Lady Rose, and make the mistress look at you differently. Civilian, find out your status, or you'll know how powerful I am! Maybe it won't be long before ......" he made an obvious threatening gesture.
I'm very ~~~ wronged, and it's not what I want to publicize. I'm just smarter enough to target the trolls' weaknesses, and there's no reason to know if they're the ones who don't take advantage of them. Cruel means? It's not that I burn the trolls, how can I kill them without fire? Does it mean that I went to the troll's lair to kill all the troll babies and wipe out those troll clans? But those guys are blocking my treasure hunt and taking the initiative to attack me, so why don't you kill them? The most important thing is that the troll baby grows almost as tall as an adult dark elf, and its appearance is extremely ugly, so it can't make me think of the sun at 8 or 9 o'clock, ah~~~ I can't say the sun, that's what we dark elves only say when they curse and curse. Anyway, if those troll babies were petite, cute, and harmless, I wouldn't have killed them, but tied them up with rope and sold them...... Well, it is said that the blood of trolls is the raw material for making antidotes, and it is also widely used in alchemy, if one was captured alive at that time, wouldn't it be possible to sell it for money by pumping troll blood now? It seems to be a little cruel, but monsters don't seem to have human rights to talk about, at least I haven't heard that there are laws and organizations in Demon Blade City to protect the rights and interests of monsters......
I was thinking about it when I suddenly realized that Commander Ayton Darkflame was still standing in front of me, and when I looked up, His Excellency Commander's red eyes were almost bursting with fire...... Well, I can understand that when you are serious and serious about threatening others, but the other party is distracted, it is really a shameless and angry thing.
By the time I tried to comfort the Commander, Lord Ayton had already walked away with a stinking face...... It seems that this time I have offended him again.
Instructor Crest also said with a straight face: "You should have been punished, not the honor of entering the commando. However, considering that you are the fastest improving student in the martial arts tower, and the Darkflame Master has asked the academy to let you participate in the recent assault. After all, the academy couldn't refuse the reasonable request of such a powerful family matrian as the Ninth Family. So you've been drafted into the Commando. ”
"Commando? Where to deal with something? I asked.
"Do you know our enemies?" The instructor prompted.
"Countless enemies!" I sighed. According to the academy's consistent education and brainwashing, almost all other races except the dark elves themselves are enemies, and even other dark elves are possible.
"Ah, but our real enemy is not in the Dark Regions." The instructor smiled slyly.
"Elves on the surface?" My heart moved, and I said tentatively.
"They are as you have learned," he assured me, "they are despicable, filthy beyond you think, they are the murderers of our fellow-men, the ones who expelled us countless eras ago......"
Instructor Crest repeated his lesson again, and I regretted asking him very much. But according to the etiquette of the cadets in the academy to the instructor, I can't leave without throwing off his nonsense, but I must listen to his teachings respectfully.
Instructor Crest finally remembered that it wasn't class right now, "I think you should know," he said, "that one night, the Strike Team will leave Blade City, and it will take many days and a long distance to reach their destination. ”
He excitedly continued, "The people of the Spider Goddess will take revenge on their mortal enemies with their hands and gain supreme glory in their blood!" Yes, you have been chosen to carry out a raid on the ground! You have to be proud of yourself for such a glorious opportunity! ”
