But Brando didn't care, and he went into the hut and sat down on the only empty straw mat. Everyone's eyes moved with him," focused on him, especially the boy named Maher, staring at him almost with a frown.
Brando couldn't help but shake his head secretly, thinking to himself that terrible? He didn't make any moves on the surface, but the strength of the Golden Realm made him aware of the every move of everyone around him, and the tense muscles and heavy beating of the other party's heart confirmed that they were very nervous right now.
But he didn't try to get rid of the tension, "I thought to myself, that's fine, although these guys won't poke out that thing about themselves for the time being, but who knows? It's nice to be able to watch their every move here.
And because of his presence, the strange and tense atmosphere in the house lasted until after the evening, after dinner to be exact.
Since most of the workers actually arrived at the mine on Sunday evening, and the silver mine usually didn't start until the next morning, Brando had plenty of time to familiarize himself with the situation.
But he didn't try the terrible dinner, the pot couldn't tell what was cooking, the green paste seemed to be a witch's potion~ and even had a rancid taste. Brando only glanced at it and then became satisfied, "Don't talk about eating."
He only congratulated himself and brought enough dry food with Yuta's reminder. At the same time, I wondered if the mercenary leader had done similar work before, otherwise how could she be so experienced.
After walking around the outside and confirming the location of several other camps, intentionally or unintentionally, "Brando returned to his shed. But this time, as soon as he entered, he saw the somewhat malnourished teenager sitting in the room.
He didn't seem to be out with the others, and Brando's eyes swept to the side to find that the girl was also accompanying the teenager.
He was stunned for a moment: "You don't eat......"
Brando thought to himself that this guy was ostracized by other people, after all, this kind of thing often happens in this kind of group, and it is not uncommon. But the weak teenager shook his head, "I don't eat dinner......"
The other party didn't seem to be afraid of him," but calmly replied.
Skipping dinner? Brando was stunned: "Fasting ......" He immediately thought that this could be a member of the Silver Lily Sect, and he had the impression that only those poor ascetics would have such strange habits.
The monks of the Silver Lily do not eat dinner" in order to remember the days of Harut, the Lord of Fire, on the Great Plains, the most difficult time of mankind in the dark ages, wandering the wasteland to escape the pursuit of the Miners, and countless people died of starvation on this path of escape.
To Brando's question, the teenager nodded.
The Order of the Silver Lilies is a small branch of the Sanctuary of Fire, common in the Anlek region, though the general believers of this sect do not fast unless they are apprenticed monks.
So Brando looked at the boy and asked, "Have you studied under the monks......
The boy nodded again, "I studied with a monk for a while, and although I have never started, I am still taught. Sir......" he replied very decently.
"Pretty words......" Brando asked.
The boy nodded.
This is amazing, Freya only knew a few words as the captain of Buche's militia back then, "This is because this Valkyrie was fortunate enough to meet Madden as the captain of the guard: and Madden is very famous in the game as the captain of Buche's guard, in fact, he is completely different from the average Eruin veteran because he is not only literate, but also very knowledgeable.
From this point on, so did Brando's grandfather. However, Brando knew that his ancestors had at least once been broad, "My father was a miller, and it was normal for the family to have an inherited education.
Roman, on the other hand, is entirely because of her aunt, and the fact that the witch's descendants can't read is just a joke, and as for the others, most of them are illiterate, and there are really not many literate commoners in this world.
So Brando simply sat down and asked with great interest, "In that case, why are you still here?" The Silver Lily Church, though poor, is still an official denomination recognized by the Flame Temple......"
"Sir, I don't know what sect I belong to, and the monk who taught me is deceased." , the boy replied.
Brando suddenly realized, I see, the other party may not have received a formal teaching, "So he can only be regarded as an ordinary believer."
His interest in this small episode lasted only a moment, and his mind quickly returned to this action. Tong Guò's previous exploration of Brando's previous exploration had already made a preliminary understanding of the general situation of the mine, but this made him feel more and more troublesome.
As far as he knew, the swordsmith's biggest threat to their operations was that he actually rarely appeared in the mines, and would stay in the barracks most of the time. Of course, it is impossible for them to touch the barracks to kill each other, "it is easy to touch them", but it is a bit of a fantasy to kill each other without being discovered.
Brando didn't come up with a comprehensive solution for a while, but fortunately he had already made up his mind to stay here for a week anyway, and it was only necessary to see if he could wait for any opportunities during the week.
But he was thinking about it when he heard the weak young man coughing on one side; He looked back and saw that the girl was coughing heavily, with the help of the girl. I probably noticed his gaze" The young man raised his head apologetically and replied with a slight smile, "Old problem, sir, if you feel unwell, sit away."
Brando didn't care, "He now has a physique close to 100", not to mention that all diseases are invasive, at least the traditional diseases are not what can be done about him. So he shook his head and pulled a hydration bag out of his backpack: "There's clean water in here." ”
He knew that the water in the mining area was not drunk by people at all, and some of it had already stinked in wooden barrels.
"Thank you." The girl, who had a faint freckle on her face, took the water bag at the boy's motion, and then gave Brando a strange look. Her glance made Brando puzzled, he didn't think too much about the water when he handed it over, it was just a bag of water, as a modern person who once lived in an era of great material abundance, Brando obviously didn't care about this thing. But he didn't realize that in a world like Vaynd, in fact, most people living at the bottom of society still believe in the law of the jungle, where the strong are respected, and not everyone here is willing to lend a helping hand to the weak for free. However, in any case, Brando's unintentional behavior won him the favor of the other party," and the boy coughed significantly more easily after taking a sip of water. However, he didn't have the strength to speak, and was silent for a while, but the girl asked first, "Sir, I heard that you are very powerful?" ”
Brando was stunned, thinking that this question was a strange question, and he really had never thought about it. And are you considered powerful? After comparing his past experience history of the past one hundred and thirty levels, he shook his head and replied, "Reluctantly......"
"Barely is very powerful" I heard that those adventurers outside have a rank called black iron or something, presumably Mr. is also such a person, right? The girl asked.
"It's the Black Iron Rank." The teenager added on the side.
Brando glanced at the two of them, "I don't understand why they're interested in this." However, the professional rank of Rong, it is not a secret there, "In fact, there are many people among the civilians who know about it."
"Barely enough, not close." Brando thought to himself that it was already very remarkable to imagine that he was so young and had the strength of black iron, and most of the mercenaries in his hands who had entered the black iron rank were at least thirty or forty years old.
However, the less conspicuous he is here, the better, so he replied casually.
He saw the two people on the other side glance at each other, and then the girl asked again, "Sir, are all adventurers like you?" I mean...... Black Iron Rank? ”
Brando glanced at them. "Of course not, as you know" A person with the strength of black iron is already considered very powerful among adventurers. ”
He didn't lie, no matter how strong he was, who would be an adventurer, unless he was the kind of person who liked to wander in all directions, but that kind of person was not in the majority after all.
But after answering," he added, "what are you asking for?" ”
"We wanted to go outside and have a look." This time the teenager spoke.
"Going on an adventure?"
The boy nodded.
Brando thought that being an adventurer would not be a good choice, but he did not dissuade him. In fact, being a miner here is no better than that, and he is also a young man, so he naturally understands the other party's thoughts.
However, he looked at the other party, and suddenly remembered that the other party knew much more about this mine than he did, and the other party seemed to have eliminated some of his vigilance in front of him, isn't it a good opportunity to inquire about the news.
So he thought for a moment and asked, "I've heard that in the pit tunnels of the silver mines of Shaflund, legend has it that some of them dug through the underground world that connects the Jorgandegon below, right?" ”
"Sir, I don't know what kind of place you're talking about." The boy shook his head: "But some of the tunnels under this silver mine do lead underground, and legend has it that no one can go to the end of there, and some people have disappeared because of this." ”
Brando thought to himself, "Sure enough, it seems that the information provided by Tajib is not wrong. He suddenly had a vague idea in his mind, so he said, "Sounds interesting, is there a legend about it?" ”
The boy exchanged a look with the girl next to him again, "But this subtle movement did not escape Brando's eyes. In fact, they had known that Brando had come for something else, and now it seemed that he had come for the strange legends beneath the mines, which was in keeping with the identity of an adventurer.
"Absolutely." The boy nodded slowly.
"Do you want to hear it" sir? ”
"Of course." Brando replied, "You say carefully," I can report it to you—" and he was more than aware of the misunderstanding, and was happy to keep it up.
