Chapter 5 Each has its own little abacus
Although the knights did not agree with Barrett's act of killing the hundred-armed giant, they were not all accusatory. In the middle of the www.biquge.info Bart and Bapty, Barrett and Bapti still admired Barrett's decisiveness at that time. Faulkner and Chris Knights, on the other hand, felt that his actions were too reckless. As for the Knight of Ovaltine, he remained impartially neutral.
But even the two knights who thought Barrett was at fault had no intention of asking him for guilt. In their opinion, it is not wrong to be young and frivolous. Come to think of it, they don't think they'd make the same choice if they were in Barrett's environment. These knights, who are not lenient to themselves and strict with others, naturally do not ask others to do things that they cannot do.
As for the undesirable consequences of that kind of behavior? The direct adverse effects can be said to be almost non-existent, and as for the later indirect effects, the knights counted it on the Lucians. After all, no matter what way you look at it, this time the loss was caused by those Lucia's champion cavalry regiments.
At the same time, in their opinion, once Barrett returned to the realm, the Earl of Boreham would never let him go so easily. Even if the pursuit of the Lucia Kingdom was not to blame him later, the mistake of exposing the killer feature of the territory was real.
Of course, with an uncommon tactical strike force like Barrett, the Boreham family will not let him take too much risk even if he is punished. As for whether it will be lifted high and gently put down, it will only be known when the final result comes out.
"Alright, alright! Anyway, that kid gave us Pollham a big face. Those Cruze's soft-footed shrimp will probably be more deferential when they cooperate! β
"I'd rather them be arrogant, as long as they have the strength to be worthy of pride. It will be easier for us to deal with the Lucia barbarians. β
"Forget it! Don't daydream. Those Cruze's soft-footed shrimp are now left with only that face that can't be put down. β
"Don't say that! After all, emaciated camels are bigger than horses, and the Cruzeites can still pull up a lot of strong soldiers when they get together. Not to mention the fact that they were able to provide a fair amount of cannon fodder, which was very important in the war against the Lucians. β
"Indeed, we need a lot of cannon fodder to go to war with the Lucians. If you use all your own people, the loss will be too great. β
After a brief silence, the voice came from the clouds: "No matter what the situation is, we will not be entering the land of the Cruze Kingdom anytime soon. Think of it as a good foundation for your comrades in other territories! β
"Yes! It won't be back anytime soon. β
Boreham's army system is indeed relatively perfect, but their investment, which is also responsible for both sea and land directions, has been diluted after all. Although the army in the territory is elite, after deducting the attack, baggage, and front-line infantry supporting the battle line, there are too few highly mobile troops that can be obtained.
Among these mobile troops, in addition to the core heavy cavalry regiment composed of knights and retainers, only the Ranger Regiment remained. And the only ones who can really cruise away from the main force are the rangers. When it is crippled, the Bolham Territory will probably not be able to engage in any movement warfare behind enemy lines for a short time.
"Are we running back in disgrace?"
"With the equipment and flags of those champion riders, it's not a slick escape! And the corpse of the hundred-armed giant can also make very good utensils. β
"That corpse is the trophy of that kid from Barrett, I wonder what price the territory will buy at what price?"
"Anyway, Lord Earl is not short of money, how can he let others suffer. Don't forget, that kid can carry the 'Broken Peak' on his back! According to my exploits over the years, I don't know if I can give one after that corpse is refined into an artifact. β
"What if that kid Barrett doesn't want to get his hands on that little corpse?"
"Not for sale? If he doesn't sell it, why will he keep it? With his current channels, he can't find a master who can make full use of these materials! β
Precious materials are rare, and it is not common for processors to be able to make the most of these precious materials. Of course, if Barrett used the remaining hundred-armed giant's corpse as bait, he would not be able to attract the master who couldn't meet the hunter. But it's hard to say whether the other party will trade fairly with Barrett, a little brat. Even if you snatch something, it's not a small possibility to escape.
Faced with such a situation, Barrett would be completely dumbfounded. So his best choice is to sell it to his family, whether it is for money or for the strange things he can use. As the knight had said, Lord Earl would not take advantage of Barrett in such a matter.
"Don't think about it. Ninety percent of the hundred-armed giant's corpse was taken away by the one who came, and the rest of the strange things that might not be processed much. When it was returned to the territory, it was unknown how many people were staring. It's not easy to snatch it from those people. β
"Don't make an effort to see who can say for sure!"
Maybe it's because of the escort of these five knights, or maybe it's because the previous battle consumed too much of the resources of the Lucia Kingdom. For the rest of the trip, the remnants did not encounter any further attacks or riots. After a few days of peace, Barrett finally got up from the stretcher that was already on the verge of fatality.
Although he still has a negative state of minus 2 for all attributes, this doesn't seem to affect Barrett's mood at the moment. Even in the game, staying in bed for a long time can still make people feel extremely uncomfortable.
Barrett, who had given up riding and was walking on the side of the carriage, had not taken a few steps before he felt a weight on his back, and it turned out that the little milk cat had pounced on his back. Seeing this, he reached out and touched the little furry paw that was hanging on his shoulder, and then said, "It's been really hard for you this time. When I return to the territory, I will set up the channel of the Sealed Monk as soon as possible, and I will not delay your advancement. β
"It doesn't matter if that kind of thing works out for the best or doesn't. I don't eat by fighting. Lalo, who hung on Barrett's back like a bobcat, said.
Barrett, who heard this, touched the bridge of his nose and laughed: "Heh! If you don't rely on combat to eat, what do you rely on? Is it moe? β
"What's wrong with that?" As she said this, Lalu poked her head out of Barrett's left shoulder, and as she watched her furry ears dangle around her eyes, Barrett felt as if she had been healedβtoo lethal for someone who wanted to be a shoveler.
"Alright! Just as you please! Barrett subconsciously rubbed the cat, which instantly made Lalu blush. Immediately afterward, she jumped off Barrett's back, and then disappeared from Barrett's sight with the speed of a warrior monk.
At this time, Barrett touched his chin unconsciously, thinking about Lalu's next arrangement. Previously, he had analyzed that the later the combat effectiveness of the warrior monk profession increased, the more it could not be compared with other professions. Of course, if both sides are alone, the warrior monk can still have a certain advantage in hand-to-hand combat. But once there are other people to assist, the gadgets that the warrior monk has exchanged for the ability to stand on the front will be useless.
In a sense, the warrior monk is still quite suitable for the profession of a lone ranger. Especially the lone ranger who operates in the towns and cities, who can fully exert their combat power without carrying weapons, is a great advantage in many well-ordered large cities.
Not to mention that he is no less than a loiterer in infiltrating and evading, as long as he is properly arranged, he can be a powerful spearhead or intelligence officer. From this point of view, if it is limited to the frontal battlefield, it will be a waste of the characteristics and professional talents of those warrior monks. But if she were to let Laru do that kind of work, regardless of whether she wanted to or not, Rielly would have to go crazy first.

"Bastagre, what are you talking about! I don't remember having such a good thing on my hands. Master Bao Di was confused, and Qiao Ji could see that the other party's dull expression and blank eyes were obviously not pretending.
Then, as if stung by a bee, Master Bastagray leaped backwards and distanced himself from Master Boudina. Then, with a look of horror, he pointed his finger at Master Bodina with a slight trembling expression. Stammered and yelled, "You! You! Who are you? I remember Baudina as a man who loved his craft, his creations and his ideas. For him, every piece of work is his child, and every part of it can be clearly handed over by its name, and it will never be a guy like you. β
The poignant accusations of Master Bastagre were heartfelt, and they were so contagious that they were close to the ecstasy of the top poets, and that Giorgie began to wonder whether he was a master of Bodinah, whom he had only seen for the first time today. After all, compared to Master Bastagre, Giorgie didn't know Master Bardina's personality traits.
With this question in mind, Georgie instinctively stepped back half a step away from Master Boudina's by about 3 feet. After all, with the dwarf's reach, this is already a relatively safe distance. At the same time, the slightly arched figure seemed to be relaxed, but it could also be vigorous at any time to counterattack the attacker.
Although the atmosphere in the room could not be said to have begun to rise at this moment, it also fell into a strange calm. The feeling is like the tranquility of that moment before the storm.
After Master Bodina put away his previous consternation, he seemed to be unaffected by the tension in the slightest. He turned his back to Georgie, stroked his beard and smiled strangely at Master Bastagray. Then he said slowly, "Bastagre, I think it's you who has the problem in your head!" I distinctly remember the few gems you kept secret from Pinnatine. When you first brought them to the surface, you couldn't find a suitable place to collect them, so you stored them all in the temple of the goddess of wealth and commerce, right? And ......"
"Nope! Don't you say it again? I believe you are real, you are real......" Master Bastagray immediately waved his hands and stepped forward, trying to cover Master Boudina's mouth. Attempts to use this method to prevent the other party from divulging their secrets to others. But all this didn't seem to have any effect, and Master Boudina turned around and ran, running back to Master Bastagray's bottom.
Next, the two played hide and seek in this small studio. Relying on his advantage as a landlord, Master Baudina flexibly and skillfully used all kinds of furniture and equipment in the workshop to stop Master Bastagray's pursuit. The stool legs, the toolbox, and the net pocket that pops up...... All of this somehow reminded Georgie of an anime he had seen before the time travel - cat and mouse.
It's just that the two people in front of me are not the kind of cartoon characters in the second dimension. It's a professional who is much older than himself, and it can be said that looking at the pair of old naughty boys wandering around him, Georgie's heart seems to have become younger.
However, as more and more information broke by Master Baudina, Master Bastagre's personal hobbies and life troubles were also revealed one by one in front of Georgie, the third person. However, from this process, Georgie could also feel that Master Bodina's words and deeds were also measured - although the revelation would embarrass Master Bastagray, it would not cause him any harm.
Except for a small number of cases, there is a popular theme such as 'strict wife'. It's more about the years that are evident from now, and it's more about showing Georgie the free youth of Maestro Boudina and Bastagre. After all, who has no time when he is young and frivolous, who has no period of ignorance and unawakened; For some stupid and ugly things that were done at that time, as long as they did not involve some principled things; In the eyes of most people, it is just the price to pay for growth. It may become a talking point, but few people will pay too much attention to it and get entangled in it.
It seems that the scholars' accounts of dwarfs are indeed correct! They are usually not bad-hearted, and even if they are liars, they are more naughty than malicious. Even the jokes between friends seem quite restrained, so as not to turn the world upside down like halflings. I don't know when it began, but Georgie seemed to have forgotten the main purpose of coming here today, and began to concentrate on watching the farce of the two in front of him. (To be continued.) )
