Chapter 21: The Brave and the Dragon
"So you have a nightmare, good, my brother is with you"
Simon gently stroked Lori's head.
"Yes ... Yes"
Little Lori looked stunned as if she had been hollowed out, and she was half scared to death.
She didn't expect to shout at all.
Fortunately, my brother also thought wrong.,How could Regina say such a shameful thing.γγγ
It's a shame...
But am I really not attractive enough?
No, my brother is a famous pervert.
Shouldn't perverts be everything?
It is necessary to study it well ...
"Mengmeng, go to sleep, I'll read you a story next to me?"
While Regina was still thinking about it, Simon had already picked up a book in the room.
He thought very simply, he had a nightmare, he just needed to divert his attention.
"Oh... Oh"
Little Lori lay down in a daze, and I don't know if she listened.
"Once upon a time ... Misty... Can you pronounce that?"
βγγγ Brother, I'll read it to you."
As long as you can divert your attention, who reads it doesn't matter.
Simon made an excuse to hide that he couldn't read.
"It's okay, since you're so interested"
γγγ
Little Lori held back the desire to go crazy and read slowly in a gentle and short voice.
"This is a story after Dragon Quest...
The great brave man returned to the village with the dragon's head and the treasure, and selflessly distributed the treasure to the villagers.
In order to repay the brave, everyone feels that every year they make up 100 gold coins to worship the brave...
After 10 years, people have forgotten the pain caused by the evil dragon, and there are fewer and fewer offerings to the brave...
Thirty years later, the generation that had seen the dragon is old, and the young people are no longer willing to worship the brave, feeling that he is a parasite that needs to be raised...
The brave man who was once extremely beautiful has now been driven out of the village.
He remembered that before killing the dragon, the dragon had left a last word: "Even if you kill me, the dragon will live in your hearts."
Extreme emotions such as anger, resentment, and revenge instantly flooded the brains of the brave.
A pair of huge wings rushed out from the back of the brave, black scales instantly covered the brave's skin, and hot flames spat out of his mouth... β
"Huh, asleep?"
Little Lori couldn't smile a little bitterly, she hadn't finished the story yet, and Simon had already fallen asleep on the edge of the bed.
The soft and cute appearance is very cute when she sleeps on her stomach and drools.
"I'm tired all day, brother."
She shook her head, covered Simon, and went to sleep herself.
ββββ Dividing Lineββββ
The town's early morning was exceptionally fresh, and the townsfolk got up early to pack up the spoils of the beast tide.
Skillfully skinning and deboning, carefully cleaned and organized, this is their food reserve.
It's also their income, because Warcraft has treasures in their brains.
Because every demonic beast in this world will store magic power in the magic crystal nucleus, and this magic crystal core is the so-called treasure.
As an energy body, the magic crystal nucleus is a standard hard currency, which can be used in various places on the mainland, and it is expensive.
That's why Jace said that every time a beast tide comes to the town, it will increase its income, and although it is dangerous, the harvest is directly proportional to it.
The townsfolk hastened to tidy up, as they would soon be neatly handed over to the guards.
Escorts out to trade, and then bring all kinds of necessities to the town.
"Captain Jace!!!Got up so early, yesterday's injuries healed so quickly?Pure physical strength warriors are great!"
A young man who was tidying up the pig beast greeted Jace as he passed by.
But his call was in vain, as Jace hurried to the former mayor's mansion.
I found that I was bored with myself, so I sped up and sorted it out again.
Inside the lobby of the former mayor's mansion
"My lord, yesterday ... I fainted and didn't know ... So much happens. β
"You're here to intercede for Rudo, relax, don't pretend. β
Simon fell asleep on his stomach last night, and just wanted to go out to move his muscles and muscles, he met a panicked Jace.
Due to the change of identity, Jace's tone seemed to be a little deliberately calm, and his speech was intermittent and inarticulate.
Seeing that the lord saw through him, it was not easy to express it deliberately and smoothly.
"Your Lord, Captain Rudo is actually a good man who has taken great care of our men... β
The sissy tone still made Simon shiver, a little questioning whether his decision to let him relax was the right one.
"I see it all in my eyes, but it's okay for the high-ranking people not to think about the people, and you can also see his attitude towards the townspeople. β
Nodding, he took Jace's words and offered his opinion.
"That's exactly what I'm trying to say, my lord, Captain Rudo wasn't like that before.
He used to be a good fellow... β
Hearing this, Simon hurriedly looked at Jace, his eyes full of weirdness.
Big brother, are you really okay with saying good guy in a sissy tone?
You're not going to talk about your love testimony next, are you??
I don't want to hear it.
"There used to be robbers outside the town... β
After holding back the strange emotions that Jace emanated, and filtering through a large number of messages that he didn't want to hear, Simon summed up Rudo's past.
1. In the early days, he helped the villagers establish a defense force to resist the beast tide and established a guard team.
2. After solving the bandit group that has been attacking the villagers, he became a hero and was admired.
3. After the villagers had no external troubles, they began to forget his exploits, and the supplies offered to the guards became less and less, and even finally disbanded.
4. There were robbers outside the city again, and Rudo reorganized the guards.
"Why does this sound a bit like the story Mengmeng told last night, go back and let Mengmeng tell it again, I didn't hear the end last night when I fell asleep. β
Simon touched his chin and muttered, he now understood why Rudo treated the townsfolk and the guards differently.
Anyone who experiences this kind of thing will have resentment in their hearts, and the object of their protection forgets their feelings and hurts themselves, what is more painful than this.
What's more, now that I have to protect the townsfolk who have hurt me again, it would be good to be willing to come back and be the captain.
"My lord, I'm not here to intercede, but I think it's important to keep the Guardians safe at this moment.
Coupled with the fact that Brother Rudo's past is not bad, I believe you will decide. β
Simon couldn't help but sigh at Jace's power, the tiger has a heart that sniffs roses, and he asks for a favor like this.
"You've analyzed everything, what else can I do, but Rudo's attitude towards the townspeople I think it's necessary to intervene"
You're so leaky, I'll kick a ball for you to solve.
"Lord Lord, I also think it is necessary to intervene, over the years, Brother Ludo has indeed become more and more rude.
In the past, I had no choice but to secretly help the townspeople, but lately the young people have been a little overwhelmed.
β
Jaston paused for a moment, looking at Simon with what he thought was sincere.
"My lord, I want you to join the mediation, because you have power.
You don't want infighting in your own territory, do you?"
This sharp rhetorical question made Simon feel like he had been punched in the back of the head.
it!!!
I just kicked the ball out, and you kicked it back.
I can only agree with a hard head.
"Of course, how can there be infighting in my territory. β
"Then let's discuss how to solve it while we feel like it. β
Hey, hey, it's not so easy to fight.
You think you can open your mouth, and you can say that there is.
Simon was about to say he was in no hurry, but was interrupted by the guards who rushed into the hall.
"Captain Jace, I've finally found you, Captain Rudo's men are at odds with the townspeople!"
