Chapter 46: Toria's Choice

"That, Mina, listen to me!" Sui Yu hurriedly explained to Philomena in a panic (Sui Yu: We definitely don't call this afraid of my wife!) However, Philomena smiled and shook her head and said to Sui Yu: "It's okay, I understand!" ”

"You don't understand!" Sui Yu was in a hurry and hurriedly ran into his exhibition cabinet, and then picked out a ring that Sui Yu's aesthetics thought was the most beautiful and good attribute among the rows of rings on the cabinet, and quickly walked to Philomena, and said to her with an affectionate face: "Speaking of which, I should have given you a ring a long time ago, I didn't expect it at all, this is really undeserved!" Hopefully it's not too late to make up for it! ”

Seeing the ring in Sui Yu's hand, although Philomena felt that the ring with a large diamond and a circle of gold trim around the diamond was a bit tacky, she still raised her hand with a happy face and let Sui Yu put the ring on the ring finger of her left hand.

Then Sui Yu also stepped forward very boldly to glance at Philomena's waist and gave an affectionate kiss, which moved Hakoya's face with that beauty, and she almost sprinkled some lilies to set off the atmosphere...... Well, from the side, it's a female warrior in beautiful battle armor hugging a beautiful princess in a white princess dress kissing!

However, no matter what others think, Sui Yu and Philomena were immersed in happiness at this time, ignoring everything around them, so when Angelina ran to urge, they immediately became jealous and squeezed between the two and shouted at Sui Yu for eccentricity.

So Sui Yu's collection of rings was missing - Angelina snatched it herself.

Although there were some twists and turns, at noon that day, the mission team led by Sui Yu still completed the assembly and left Avalon quickly with the escort of several informed war concubines.

The parting was sad, watching the war queens who saw them off crying (Angelina even jumped to warn Philomena not to eat secretly), Sui Yu was moved and felt that it was a wise decision to leave secretly, otherwise if he said goodbye to the war queens one by one, he probably didn't know how long it would be delayed.

Of course, those unwitting war concubines will definitely make trouble if they find out that Sui Yu has secretly left, but then they can only rely on Angelina, who stayed in Avalon, to find a way to appease. Anyway, the former queen has a lot of management experience, so she must be able to calm the emotions of the war princesses.

So in the company of Philomena and other war queens, Sui Yu, who threw a lot of trouble to Angelina, hummed a little tune and happily embarked on the journey......

Unlike Sui Yu, who was alone and faced everything when he left Avalon a few months ago, Sui Yu, who had brought several battle concubines, was very comfortable along the way.

At night, someone was responsible for assembling the tent and making the bed, and during the day, when she was on the road, Philomena was concerned about asking if she needed to rest, and at the same time, she kept bringing some fruits and drinks to Sui Yu to eat and drink.

So Originally, Sui Yu was able to leave the forest in more than a day when he was equipped with the artifact suit, but everyone walked for three days! There was no way, because he replenished too much water every day, Sui Yu almost every once in a while had to find a place to make it convenient......

And every time it's convenient, Sui Yu is a little envious that other Zhan Ji's artifacts can be directly included in his body, unlike the artificial artifact he wears can only be included in the inventory with the system menu, so that every time the equipment is put away, it will be colorful, so that the Zhan Ji will know that he Sui Yu is going to the toilet again......

However, Sui Yu still couldn't help but rejoice, fortunately, the player's system was still retained after crossing into the real world, otherwise Sui Yu would have been mad just by constantly putting on and taking off his armor with the help of others just to go to the toilet.

As if on vacation, I hurried during the day to hack down some unlucky monsters that accidentally approached Sui Yu and others to harvest some gold coins and materials, and at night set up comfortable tents to make the monsters that were hacked to death during the day into various flavors of meat, so that everyone could eat with a mouthful of oil. And what made Sui Yu feel even happier was that Philomena even made a very wide folding bed for Sui Yu to rest very comfortably.

It's a pity that every time Philomena wants to stay overnight at Sui Yu's request, the shadow on the ground will always distort into Angelina's image, and she is still holding a black sign in her hand, which uses the shadow to form an inverted color with words such as "Yu-sama is eccentric!" "I'm going to be busy to death, you guys are still a**! "No matter how affectionate you are, be careful that I strike!" Something like that.

So under the interference of this shadow demon who has become Angelina's clone, Sui Yu's plan to achieve a positive result with Philomena had to be stillborn......

In this way, when Sui Yu's shadow grudge became deeper and deeper, the group finally came to Jim Village on the border of the forest.

In other words, Tolia hasn't been home for more than two months, since he is passing by here, he naturally wants to let Tolia go home to see, for this apprentice who came to the other world, Sui Yuke attaches great importance to it.

At this time, Jim Village is much more lively from the outside than it was two months ago, and there are many sturdy houses in the village.

"Since the last time Yu performed a miracle here, the villagers of Jim Village seem to have spontaneously formed a simple church to believe in Yu. The village chief seems to be very good at managing the church by using the church to gather people's hearts, so Jim Village has developed very quickly in the last two months, and you see, they have not only strengthened the city walls, but the villagers have even built a small church in the middle of the village! ”

Philomena seemed to have collected a lot of information about Jim Village, and as soon as she approached the village gate, she began to explain to everyone the changes in Jim Village during this period of time, of course, these words were mainly for Sui Yu and Tolia to hear.

"Church? Miracles? Sui Yu then remembered that not long after he released a group resurrection here more than two months ago, he found that there was an extra attribute of faith in the character attributes, and this value was still slowly rising at a slightly fluctuating range.

However, after some research, Sui Yu found that this belief value seemed to be useless, so he forgot about this inexplicable attribute. Now it seems that the useless faith value is likely to be obtained through the prayers of these villagers.

It's just that when Sui Yu thought that every day, a large group of old and young masters, plus seven aunts and eight aunts, called him Sui Yu's name before eating and before going to bed, Sui Yu felt goosebumps all over his body.

After greeting the two strong militiamen guarding the gates of the village, and under the awe-struck gazes of the two strong men (it seems that since Tolia saved the village with a single sword last time, she has become a patron saint in the eyes of the villagers and is highly respected by the villagers, especially those who later have village names), Tolia leads the group along the repaired stone road to Toria's house.

Although the village seems to have undergone earth-shaking changes due to the introduction of a large number of outsiders (mainly the villagers who were captured by the group of captured slaves rescued by Sui Yu at the beginning), the old village chief's family is still like that.

Three stone houses enclose a quadrangle, and the roof is very dilapidated from afar, and the surrounding new stone houses look a little out of place, it is estimated that outsiders who come here for the first time will definitely not think that this is the residence of the head of a village.

Seeing this, Sui Yu immediately said to Tolia in a serious voice: "Tolya, your father is also a village cadre, so can't you use your power for personal gain a little bit and get some benefits for yourself?" You see this house is broken, and it won't rain lightly in the house on a rainy day, right? ”

However, Tolia smiled and shook his head and said: "My father often said that he became the village chief because he had everyone's trust and support, and in order to live up to the trust of the villagers, he will definitely work hard to do a good job as the village chief, shoulder the responsibility of the village chief, and strive to develop Jim Village!" My father has been saying these words to me since I was a child, and I can almost recite them word for word! So my father will never seek personal gain, although because of the responsibility of the whole village, my father has aged faster than his peers, but I know that he has always enjoyed it! ”

Tolia's pride when she said this made Sui Yu a little embarrassed.

Walking into the small courtyard, Tolia, who had not been home for more than two months, seemed very excited, and as soon as she entered the door, she shouted: "Daddy, I'm back!" He ran towards the door of the big house in the middle, but the figure at the door flashed, but instead of the old village chief, a soldier wearing a military uniform and a simple light armor appeared in front of Tolia.

Combined with the rank division system provided by Philomena about the Talaya Kingdom, by identifying the badge on the other party's neckline, Sui Yu and the others found that the soldier who appeared in front of Tolia seemed to be a squad leader-level officer in the army.

Tolia wondered why there was an officer in her house, and she looked anxiously behind the officer for her father.

Fortunately, the old village chief also followed to the door at this time, which made Tolia breathe a sigh of relief.

"You're Toria? The daughter of the head of this village? It is rumored that he awakened the power of will, repelled several mountain bandits alone, and then followed some hermits to the depths of the forest to cultivate, a silver-level professional? ”

Listening to the officer's question, Tolia nodded a little stunned and replied, "I am indeed Tolia." ”

At this time, the old village chief came out of the house and said to Toria, "This is Captain Luther, and he has been specially sent by the kingdom to find you. ”

At this time, Luther also said to Tolia in the simple and direct style of a soldier: "Yes, Toria! Maybe you don't know it yet, the Duchy of Felicis has declared war on the Kingdom of Talaya! Now that the entire kingdom of Taraya has entered a state of war, I am here to invite you to join the army! ”

At this time, the old village chief approached Tolya, first glanced at Sui Yu and his party behind Tolya, and seemed to be a little relieved after finding that there was no one (it seems that the old village chief didn't find out, someone was actually standing next to Tolya), and then he said to Tolya: "Because you awakened the power of your will to kill the bandits when the bandits came to plague the township, the reputation spread, so after the outbreak of this war, the country sent Captain Luther to find you." Sir Luther, he has been here for a while, but he has not waited for you, but it is good that you are back at this time, otherwise they will continue to wait. ”

The old village chief's words didn't sound special, but the insiders understood that the old village chief was reminding Tolia not to casually tell Sui Yu and the others about it.

It seems that although the old village chief organized everyone to establish a church, he also knew that the characters he believed in were not good people, and rash exposure could lead to great disaster!

Ignoring the old village chief's good intentions, Sui Yu was a little worried about Tolia at this time.

Sui Yu knew that Toria, as a person of the Talaya Kingdom, did have the obligation to be loyal to the country according to the law, although Luther said it more politely, but the essence of his mission was to recruit Toria, and even Sui Yu doubted that if Tolia did not agree, the other party would not forcibly levy it according to the law.

Thinking that his apprentice might be bullied, Sui Yu wanted to take a step forward to argue, but at this time, Luther glanced at the people standing behind Tolia and said to Tolya: "But seeing that you seem to have joined the mercenary group like this, then according to the law, mercenaries are not allowed to be recruited in the war between the two countries." It looks like I'm going to have to wait in vain these days! ”

Sui Yu then remembered, it seems that he heard Philomena say that although the mercenaries of the mercenary group are strong in combat, most of the mercenaries are unscrupulous due to the perennial fight with the monsters (and even some mercenary groups are professional bandits), in order to prevent the mercenaries of the two countries from war, the ordinary soldiers on both sides will be killed and injured too many because of the mercenaries joining, and even if they win, they will lose both people and money, so there is an unwritten rule between countries, that is, to ensure that they will not take the lead in using the sad wind...... Ah wrong, don't use mercenaries first!

Therefore, once Tolia admits that he will immediately follow Sui Yu and others to form a mercenary group, then the matter of forced conscription can naturally be avoided.

To be honest, Sui Yu is very opposed to Tolia joining the army, not to mention that it is very dangerous to be a soldier to fight, but to say that a girl feels full of danger when she stays in a barracks full of big men - there are definitely wolves around!

Thinking that this guy named Luther actually provided such a good excuse for Tolia to refuse to join the army, Sui Yu couldn't help but feel a little good about this soldier.

However, at this time, Luther seemed to glance at the people behind Tolia and said to Toria: "Although a purely female team can avoid some embarrassment and trouble, it seems that the proportion of spellcasters is a bit too high looking at your teammates, and doing tasks like this is likely to lead to the overall collapse due to the lack of melee cover!" And Tolia, as one of the few melee classes in the team, will probably be the most stressful one, so I suggest that even if you become a mercenary, it is best to find a team with a reasonable match! ”

Sui Yu in the back didn't hear it, the words "pure female team" kept echoing in his mind at this time, and it was still scrolling! As a result, the little good impression of Luther disappeared in an instant, and at this time, Sui Yu sincerely hoped in his heart that this annoying guy would get out of here quickly!

However, just when Sui Yu thought that Tolia would simply refuse Luther's request to join the army on the grounds that she was a mercenary, Tolia looked back at Sui Yu with some hesitation and then turned to Luther and said, "Well, can you give me a little time to discuss with my companions?" ”

Although Luther came to recruit Tolia on behalf of the military, he was still very polite to Toria. After discovering that Tolia seemed likely to agree to the invitation to join the army, Luther smiled and nodded to Tolia and said, "Of course you can, joining the army is not a trivial matter, not to mention that you are still a girl, so you must be cautious." Besides, I've been waiting for so many days, and it doesn't matter if I wait another day, and both countries have to spend a lot of time preparing for the war, so there is still plenty of time. In this way, give me an answer tomorrow, whether we can become comrades-in-arms or not, I will immediately return to the military headquarters to resume my life! ”

"Thank you!" Tolia bowed his head and thanked him, and then led Sui Yu and the others into the room where Sui Yu had rested, while the old village chief returned to the main house to accompany Luther, a guest from the military headquarters.

Ten people squeezed into the stone house at the same time, and the room was extremely crowded in an instant, in order to make Sui Yu more comfortable, except for Philomena and Hakeya, several other battle concubines were trying to get aside, and even the hapless Kanami was squeezed out of the door directly......

Anyway, Kanami didn't need to participate in the discussion, so Philomena directly ordered Kanami to guard the door so as not to be eavesdropped.

Anyway, Sui Yu's true identity is still a little sensitive, so it's better not to be easily heard by others when he speaks!

After confirming that no one was eavesdropping around, Tolia said to Sui Yu with some uneasiness, "Master, I'm sorry! ”

After speaking, Tolia bowed deeply to Sui Yu, and then she continued to say to Sui Yu with a firm face: "I want to join the army, and I hope that Master can be fulfilled!" ”
