Chapter 92: A Laughable Idiot
Early in the morning, as soon as Link woke up, Alice was standing next to her with her rinsing tools.
With the gradual abundance of materials recently, many things have been purchased.
After accepting the other party's health services, Link stretched and said to Alice, "Go to the dungeon and take a look at the arsonist you caught." ”
"Yes."
Alice bowed her head in response, and then followed in Link's footsteps.
Coming to the dungeon again was a surprise for Link.
The last time I came to the dungeon, I regretted leaving because I found that I couldn't use the building, but this time, I found that the dungeon was actually up and running.
This is because in this dungeon, there is a cell that is occupied.
A stupid idiot who wants to set fire to the Elemental Tower!
Here in this cell, Link saw several hints.
He had three options for the prisoners in this cell.
24 hours of hard labor, 24 hours of torture, and surrender.
Labor can bring a small amount of silver to the Elemental Tower, torture can bring a certain amount of experience to Link, and surrender is the possibility of turning the opponent into someone on his side.
Link tried to make a surrender and saw a hint of rejection.
Before the labor and torture Link could be used, he turned to Joan of Arc, who arrived when he came in, and asked, "Did this guy confess anything?" ”
"Not yet, he probably wouldn't have opened his mouth before corporal punishment was used."
Joan of Arc said, meaning that she hadn't hit anyone before.
"Hmm." Link nodded silently and said to Joan of Arc, "Then I'll leave it to you, I need to know the cause and effect." ”
"Yes, my lord." Joan of Arc bowed silently, then looked at the man in the cell, "I'll let him confide in everything." ”
Link was unmoved by the cruel methods that a patron of the Light was about to do.
Because according to several conversations with Joan of Arc, he has understood what the Holy Light in Joan of Arc's grasp represents.
Joan of Arc's light is the ultimate faith, and no matter what she does looks like in the eyes of others, as long as she herself fits her beliefs, she will always have the power of the light.
Therefore, Joan of Arc will never have the slightest effect on her Holy Light power if she does such things as torture and killing.
But even so, Link didn't expect Joan of Arc to complete her task so quickly.
By the time Link returned to the house to prepare for breakfast, she had already brought back the man's confession.
"Is it confirmed to be real?"
Link listened to Joan of Arc's report and asked with a strange look on his face, "Is that really the case?" ”
Link showed a crying and laughing face, and waved his hand depressedly: "Let him get out of here, a fool, it's not worth killing him!" ”
It turned out that the arsonist's name was John, and he was a lord of a nearby nobleman, whose family had been a lumberjack for generations.
Although there are many werewolves in the werewolf forest, and occasionally rush out of the forest to cause trouble in all directions, it has not blocked the existence of lumberjacks, and there are always a few people who continue this ancient business.
But lumberjacking is not a very good job, and John has always wanted to make some money and make some extra money.
Then yesterday while cutting wood in the forest, a man from the Knights of the Feathered Eagle found him and gave him 10 Seine Silver Wolves (the standard silver coin of the Duchy of Seine) and asked him to come here and set fire to the tower.
And the most important thing is that he only got a deposit of silver coins, and the others said that they would give it when he returned.
And then this idiot actually came and set it on fire.
And the point is that this guy swaggered over directly, making several heroes in the tower think that he was also sent by a nobleman, and did not supervise him, let him look around, and then stunned put a bundle of firewood under the tower to prepare to burn, only to be caught red-handed by the discovered elemental guards and sent to the dungeon.
"Let him go!"
Link couldn't laugh or cry, this guy who was like a fool didn't know what to say, and he always felt that his level was going to be lowered.
And this guy's luck is really good, if Link didn't come over when they didn't clean up the werewolves a few days ago, maybe they would have been eaten by the werewolves when they went deep into here.
"Who is that Knights of the Feathered Eagle?"
Link asked, that's the point.
"It's William." Joan of Arc said with a serious expression, "According to that John's description, it should be William who was driven from us." ”
Avina and the others also heard this information on the side, and immediately raised their eyebrows and said angrily: "This damn bastard, I knew that I would kill him like this!"
"Forget it, a clown-like guy can't be angry with him."
Link calmed Avina for a moment, and then saw a wooden bird suddenly appear in Alice's hand, with fresh water trails on it, as if it had not just been taken out.
"I just went to scout, and the situation around me is not very good."
The wooden bird in Alice's hand was still fluttering, shaking off the dew on her body, "I saw several werewolves, but they didn't come to target us, but to migrate all the tribes around us. ”
"Isn't it good news that the werewolf is gone?" Aislin, who had always been invisible, asked in surprise, "Why isn't the situation very good?" ”
Alice shook her head at her: "First of all, our Lucy's pioneer knight is a title that was obtained because of the need to suppress werewolves, and if the werewolves are all gone, it means that she is useless." ”
"Secondly, if the werewolves just stay away, then our surroundings will be much safer, and those nobles and pioneer knights will gradually erode our safe surroundings, and eventually lead to our entanglement of interests."
"Also, if they think that we can easily repel the surrounding werewolves and have the power to force them to leave, the attraction to those nobles will be greatly increased, and although it may bring a better contract for the lord, it is also very likely to attract the hostility of more nobles."
Alice's points have aroused everyone's approval, which is why there is an idiom of self-respect.
It is precisely because of the fact that the benefits brought by raising the Kou are very large, and this situation will occur.
Link sighed, and through the Tower's vision, he saw another group of centaurs, passing through the woods in the distance, and coming to the Tower.
"Kara, Lucy, your mission is here again."
Link smiled at the two who showed a wry smile and said, "But this time it shouldn't be a nobleman, just a team of pioneering knights, you don't need to take it too seriously, listen to their conditions, and drive them out if you don't agree." ”
The hands of the nobles are generally marked with the heraldic patterns and symbols of the nobles in a conspicuous place, so that their identity can be seen at a glance.
And the team that is coming now is obviously not a noble horse, so it can only be someone who is also a pioneer knight.
