Chapter 288: Aren't You Joking!
"We're going to Captain Joseph now." The NPC with the word [Allen] on his head said this, Brother Hao didn't say anything, thinking that this should be the relevant prompt of the system, just follow along.
"By the way, am I going to follow that and Joseph into the forest today?"
From the mouth of Erin, Brother Hao seems to have heard such a stubble, but he himself is not very clear about what the current plot copy is, and judging from the original plot broadcast...... Isn't the forest not accessible to outsiders?
There are a lot of suspicions, although there is not much information that can barely be deduced so far, but judging from the names and dresses of the NPCs around him, Brother Hao still smartly realizes that this place is probably a small village in the middle of Europe......
Is it to participate in a holy war, to help or to assassinate King Arthur or something?
It makes sense to think that the people in the village must also be disgusted and afraid of war, so naturally they will not let the villagers enter the forest at will, because they know that King Arthur and his rebels (before the conquest of the world) are stationed in the depths of the forest, so they have made up some terrible legends about the forest? And the heroine in the original plot introduction couldn't bear the loneliness and ran in quietly, but was he, by King Arthur......
That's right, that's probably it.
"Yes, brother." Alan didn't know what the "brother" in front of him was doing in YY, so he stopped, looked at Brother Hao and said.
“…… What are you doing in the forest? "Brother Hao thought, he was thinking in the direction of King Arthur, but his guess in his heart was absolutely reluctant to come true, damn it, don't be a knight of the Round Table battle, hey...... This difficulty is completely inconsistent with [Normal]!
"Today is your coming-of-age ceremony," the younger brother said in a flat tone without a trace of waves, "According to the customs of the village, on this day, all adult children must follow the expedition into the forest to complete the coming-of-age ceremony and become a warrior in the village. ”
"Huh?"
Rite of passage? Mores? Warrior? It is usually not a good thing for these words to be combined together in the context of the European Middle Ages, Brother Hao was slightly stunned, and he didn't have time to ask again, "Go into the forest to do hair, try your guts?" His cute little brother continued.
"Go hunt demons."
it?
"What the hell? Hunting demons? ”
Oh, so I was going to kill demons and not have anything to do with King Arthur?
Hearing this word, Brother Hao suddenly remembered, by the way, the keyword he filled in when choosing the plot was indeed [demon], but ...... Whatever Nima writes, he will hunt down? Isn't this a neurosis! Doesn't the program group have a more tactful form of expression! What about the normal mode that is said to be good?
And the rite of passage ...... Shouldn't you take yourself into the forest to avoid the crowd and open some shameful poison and break the child's body or something, right? Didn't everyone play like this in the Middle Ages? Why did you get to yourself and get involved in strangling demons?
"You're here!"
Brother Hao was still in a slight pain, and suddenly there was a burst of Lang Shuang's laughter in his ears, it seemed that he had encountered some strange NPCs, Brother Hao raised his eyes, and sure enough, he saw a burly man in his thirties, he was dressed in military uniform, and this man was carrying a broad-bladed giant sword that was more than a meter long on his shoulder...... Looking at this battle, he is simply a retired knight.
Or rather, a powerful warrior.
"Big Brother Joseph."
As soon as he saw this person, Alan behind Brother Hao greeted him respectfully, and in view of the fact that he was not familiar with the place of life when he first arrived, Brother Hao also greeted him.
"Good! Very good! Looks like our Roger has grown up too! Joseph, who was carrying a large controlled knife, chuckled and patted Brother Hao's shoulder hard, he had a lot of strength, and he almost didn't slap Brother Hao on the ground this time.
This made Brother Hao a little baffled, but he didn't pay much attention to it at the moment.
According to the direction of the plot, he should have to follow this calf into the forest to complete some coming-of-age ceremony...... At first, he heard that he was going to strangle the demon and made Hao Ge Chrysanthemum nervous, but after seeing the posture of the expedition team leader, he suddenly felt much more at ease.
Fortunately, if a team is all of this size, then it is estimated that it will not be difficult to strangle the demon or something...... What's more, I'm not a soft persimmon now.
After a brief greeting with the burly NPC, Brother Hao finally got to the point.
"Big Brother Joseph...... Are we going into the forest today? ”
All the known clues point to this matter, under the premise that the current plot is vague and difficult to discern, Brother Hao just wants to test it, and a lot of useful information comes out, but he didn't think about it, as soon as he said this, Joseph, who was still a heroic smile, was like petrification in an instant, and the smile on his face froze.
Brother Hao saw this person thrust the giant sword on his shoulder into the ground, his eyebrows twisted into a Sichuan character, and he looked at himself with a strange expression for a while, and then his expression changed, and he continued to say happily.
"Ah, yes, it's a good day for you."
I don't know why, when this NPC said this, his expression was particularly strange, and it seemed to be ...... What are you deliberately hiding?
Huh?
Huh?!
Is it really going into the forest to have a shameful party? It's just to cover people's eyes and ears, so it is said to be "strangling demons"? Ouch hey...... It turned out to be this routine, ahahaha......
Brother Hao used to play a game called [Gentleman's Promise], so what do you say about the game...... In fact, it is a limited-level adult game, and players in the game often organize some small activities with colors, and claim that these activities are just [tea party], [tasting party] and the like...... But in the real sense, it's [Friends Club], [Pinju Club] or something...... The scene is violent.
Ahem, of course, Brother Hao is a good person, and he has never attended these strange gatherings (you guess), so what is this [Strangling Demon Coming-of-Age Ceremony] this time...... He ...... from the face of Captain Joseph Seems to have guessed something.
Probably thinking of these levels, a strange look of excitement gradually appeared on Roger (Brother Hao)'s face, which made Joseph feel a little nervous, he coughed lightly twice, and said to the young man in front of him.
"We'll leave this evening, Roger, you go and get ready, report in front of the woods at the entrance of the village at eight o'clock, and we'll be waiting for you there."
"Okay."
With that, Joseph continued to carry his great sword, and in a matter of three paces disappeared at the end of the village path.
"Let's go, brother, let's go home, Mom is still waiting for us, she said she has something for you."
"Hmm."
Looking at the brothers who were walking down the path, a group of people not far away were whispering carefully.
