Kevin helped the quilt brave man to the bed, stabilized his mood, and patted him on the shoulder after a long silence: "Do you remember what I said to you before you pulled out that 'holy sword' at the city gate?"

The eyes of the quilt warrior became distant, and after thinking for a moment, he came up with a rough idea: "You said that if you draw your sword, you will be responsible, and you may die, etc." ”

"You remember, yes. Kevin replied.

"But actually, I didn't plan to draw the sword, the sword bounced out by itself," the quilt brave man leaned against the head of the bed, "I didn't have the courage to be a brave man, I didn't even plan to draw the sword, and suddenly someone wrapped in a quilt threw over, the sword bounced out by itself, and then became a quilt brave." When I think back to that time now, I wonder more and more about whether it will be ......."

Kevin nodded and admitted, "Yes, I designed it." We sent someone to squat in the ground, grab the sword, and wait for you to draw the sword and send it straight up. And the person who wrapped you in a quilt and threw you over at that time was her. Kevin said and pointed at Fett, who looked a little embarrassed.

The corners of the quilt brave's mouth moved, it turned out that the culprit of everything was Kevin?

"We're here as an observer group and we have our mission, and we need specific intelligence on Imperial chariots," Kevin continued, "but almost all of the kobold lords are from the Empire, and for this we intend to try to train our own people, and for this we have chosen you." ”

"Why me?" asked the Quilt Brave.

Kevin turned his head to look at Fit, who said, "I was in charge of teaching at the time, and I obviously felt that you were one of the best learners. And...... It feels pretty handsome, so it's up to you. ”

Quilt Brave: "......"

Kevin adds, "And at that time, you used to crouch in the corner and draw alone, looking more withdrawn. And at that time, we designed a sword drawing ceremony, and it was best to draw it after the whole city had been drawn, and then you could pull it out to convince others. If you are a hot-blooded young man, rush to the first one, and pull out the sword at once, then others will not feel it, and the effect of the ceremony will be greatly reduced. And in order to facilitate the people who grab the sword underground to better control, it is inconvenient for the selected people to be in the queue, one after another, and the underground people can't see it, once the wrong one is delivered, it is not easy to do. ”

"So all things considered, you were actually the right person at the time," Kevin replied, "and it wasn't accidental. ”

The quilt warrior sighed: "Actually, the longer I follow the princess, the more thoughts I have, I asked you if the god is real or fake, and you answered that I was fake." At that time, I had to wonder how I became a brave man...... Alas......"

Kevin nodded: "After I came to the kobold camp, I actually killed a lot of people, and I won't admit it in public, except for the Smida people, that really can't be relied on." But privately, I do have a responsibility that I can't shirk, but even so, I don't regret it. ”

The quilt warrior turned his head, his eyes revealing doubts.

"Because I will also benefit the country, don't forget where this spirit comes from," Kevin replied, "Sometimes you need means to do things, and the means may be unbright, unfair, or even sinful, but my starting point is to serve the country after all." I can apologize for what happened to you, but if you have the chance to do it again, you're still a quilt warrior. I don't make excuses, and I'm going to tell you clearly that this is how it works. ”

Kevin looked up at the room, "Sometimes it's like ...... Clean this room. It's hard to make sure you won't get dirty while cleaning, and if you don't clean it for fear of getting dirty, the room won't be clean. Of course, if the task is relatively easy, then it can indeed be carried out according to the normal procedure, just like the room itself is relatively clean, just wipe the table, and the body will not be dirty. ”

"But what if it's a pigsty, what if it's a pigsty? Someone has to sweep it, and the cleanliness man doesn't dare to move, and he comes out in a moment, and he himself is still clean, but the pigsty is not clean. The strong man with the urinal can clean himself while cleaning the pigsty, but usually they are the protagonists, and ordinary people can't compare. Ordinary people like us can only be afraid of being dirty or tired, even if they are full of pig smell, they have to get things done. ”

"However, with the smell of pigs on your body, many clean people will stay away from you, and even accuse you and mock you," Kevin sighed, "The smell of pigs on people can be washed, and the smell of pigs on the moral level can be ...... Kindness...... In fact, it can also be washed. Isn't it the routine to clean the pigsty first, and then wash yourself in the bath?"

Everyone: "......"

The quilt brave man was silent for a moment and asked: "Then the so-called weak class, the so-called elevation of the status of the kobolds, peace and prosperity, is it just an excuse made up for your mission?"

"No," Kevin shook his head, "The princess told you about the history of Lou Paule, although it is not comprehensive and there are many omissions, but it is basically true. The way has been walked, so just follow it. We are currently on the same front, and it will be good for us to become stronger. ”

"Then if we don't be on the same side one day, then ......," the quilt brave man asked.

Kevin replied: "There won't be this day for the foreseeable future, and you can rest assured." ”

"Actually, I still don't understand," the quilt brave sat up straight, "but I'm not going to ask any more, my knowledge level is still far behind, and I can't figure out too many things in a short time." But no matter how under the princess's rule, our main city is indeed much better than before, and the lives of the commoners at the lowest level are better, more knowledgeable, and more hopeful. Since the princess's concept of governing the country comes from Lou Baole, then I also choose to believe you. ”

Kevin nodded and patted him on the shoulder: "Actually, the current situation is much better than before, you have rightfully become the city lord, and it is still recognized by the empire, and no one can move you in a short time." Originally, the empire looked very dead, and even had to control what language was taught in the city, but now they only need the result and don't care about the process, and there are too many things that can be operated in the middle. ”

"I know you must be sad about the princess's death, but let's look forward," Kevin told him, "I know it's hard, but there's really not much time to grieve at the moment." There is an easy way to relieve the pain, and that is to work hard and not think about anything. ”

Returning to the topic, Kevin gave him a plan: "I also know that there are no minerals in that city, the population is not large, and the quality of the population is worse. However, since it is calculated according to the multiplier of the original output, it is not difficult to achieve three times when the initial output is low. ”

"After you take office, first of all, all the officials in the city will be cleaned up, such as the old city lord, he has been in the city for a long time, and his prestige is probably very high. The easiest way is to kill him first, and then you can assassinate him, and we can help with this, we still have better assassins here. You can also find all kinds of other reasons, such as anti-corruption, etc., I don't believe that his family can't find some money. Kevin spoke.

The quilt warrior thought for a moment: "Then if the old city lord is particularly cooperative, will he also become one of my generals?"

"It's unlikely," Kevin shook his head, "and the key question is, how can you be sure that the old city lord will be loyal to you? The people under the old city lord must obey the old city lord, and when the time comes, you will easily be hollowed out, and you will not be able to carry out any orders, and you will not be able to defeat them alone, what will you do when the time comes? Find the imperial people? Do you think the imperial people will stand up for you? They were originally going to kill you, but now let you go, let you play some spare heat, if you can't even be the city lord, then you deserve to die." ”

"Don't count on us completely, we can help secretly, but we won't stand on the platform openly, Lou Baole Kingdom does not interfere in your internal affairs, this is no way to do it," Kevin replied, "As the city lord, it is most important to control the whole city, for the old city lord, kill it according to the situation, or house arrest, or exile, and the exile should not be placed nearby." To be honest, almost all the city lords, including the king, are from the empire, and it is not appropriate to put him around. ”

"I see. The quilt warrior nodded, and turned his head to look at the coachman. The coachman was the leader of the many coachmen in that city, and he went with him, which made it a lot easier for the quilt brave. However, he couldn't understand Lou Pauler's Chinese, and he was completely overwhelmed by the side of the station.

"After taking control of the whole city, you have to start to seek development," Kevin continued, "There are not many minerals, and it is not the right way to go out and cheat, after all, you have to develop industry." I haven't looked at the terrain over there carefully, so when the time comes, I can gather a nearby caravan and have a meeting to discuss which industry is better to develop. But don't get any more weapons and equipment, that's the business of robbing the empire. In fact, the death of the princess is also part of the reason. ”

The quilt warrior nodded again and again.

Kevin continued: "If you really can't find a good industry, there is another way, and that is to carry the corpse!"

"Carrying a corpse?" Not only was the quilt brave surprised, but the others were also surprised.

"Yes, let the civilians of the whole city go out of the city to find it, whether it is a human race, a kobold, a jackal, or some kind of pig, cow, sheep and dog, etc., all the corpses will be carried back for me. After the corpse was brought back, find a place to set up a water system magic circle to freeze and preserve it. Kevin pointed further.

Sain and the others had already thought of something, but it was inconvenient to speak at this time. But the quilt brave man didn't understand: "This ...... What's the use?"

"Don't worry, if you really carry all the corpses around dozens of kilometers, someone will definitely come to deal with you," Kevin didn't say much, "Of course, this is the last option, if possible, it's better not to deal with them." ”

"The hardest part of getting a business is the initial capital," Kevin muttered, "I don't have any experience in this area, and I don't know how much it will cost." If it's not enough, you may have to borrow. The specific matters will be discussed when the time comes to the Chamber of Commerce meeting. ”

"For now, let's start with the first step and take control of the whole city!" Kevin gave him a set time, "Three days, get the old city lord, no matter what method you use." In one week, recognize all the young and middle-aged kobolds in the city, and in two weeks, call out the names of all the people in the city, and give him a temporary name if he has no name, how the princess governed you at the beginning, how you govern them now. ”

"Yes!" the quilt warrior nodded heavily.

Looking at the resolute eyes of the quilt brave, Kevin had to brake the car for him: "Don't pay too much attention to the theory of sweeping the pigsty, this is also applicable." Unscrupulous means are the easiest, but what I am afraid of is that after getting used to simplicity, I want to do whatever it takes. It's easy to let it out, but it's hard to take it back. I have to remind myself often. ”

Kevin said this, but he was facing Sain and the others, in fact, the quilt brave don't have to worry too much, he is in troubled times, and sometimes he has to do it. And Sain and the others will eventually return to a peaceful society, and it will be dangerous if they still have this kind of thinking.

On the other side, Xiao Spoon and Xiao Jiu had already gone out of the city again, and yesterday the two of them suddenly became confused, chasing an inexplicable figure for a long time, and found nothing. Today they have to figure out what happened yesterday.

"This is where we left off yesterday," the little spoon turned his head to check the scenery on the side, "and that's where the figure disappeared." ”

"Actually, according to our speed yesterday, it's okay to chase again, it's just ......" Xiao Jiu replied, searching for some clues on the ground again, "The ground is hard, it hasn't rained recently, and there are no footprints." ”

"Let's go further. Little Spoon proposed, and the two of them immediately walked forward a little further, but the wilderness was all around, and after another night, not to mention the traces of the figure yesterday, even the traces of their own walking were difficult to find.

"What do you think was the purpose of that figure yesterday?" the two had to analyze from other directions.

"Will it seduce us?" guessed Spoon, "maybe we have to go somewhere to explain it?"

Xiao Jiu disagreed: "I've thought about it for a long time, and I think it's very likely that we fell for the illusion yesterday." ”

"But if he was really that strong, he could have done something simpler, such as tying us up or blowing us up, but we ended up escaping. Little Spoon replied.

"I can't tell," Xiao Jiu replied, "Let's look for it again, there may be new clues." ”

The two of them looked for each other as they walked, and more than an hour passed in the blink of an eye, and the two were still full of patience, after all, as assassins, patience was still a basic skill.

"There's a piece of shit here. The little spoon found something insignificant, but he said it anyway.

"There's a wild dog. Xiao Jiu replied casually.

Little Spoon stood up and looked around: "I'm a little hungry and want to get some game to eat." ”

"Not very well," Xiao Jiu replied, "Let's look for clues first." ”

"Well, if we can't find any clues, we'll catch some game," replied the little spoon, "why don't you go back and bring some to them?"

"Then they'll think we're lazy and come out just looking for food, okay?" replied Xiao Jiu.

"Then they won't be able to eat. Little Spoon was helpless, although the two said this, their eyes still did not leave the ground, and the search for clues was not ambiguous.

However, after more than an hour, the two had searched the surrounding area for several kilometers, but still found nothing.

"Look! a goat!" the little spoon suddenly pointed to a white dot on the hillside in the distance.

"Let's go!" Xiao Jiu no longer hesitated, picked up his weapon and rushed over.

The goat was frightened and immediately ran away, but the two assassins were so fast that they could easily catch up even if they didn't have any skills. Xiao Jiu flicked the long whip and wrapped it around the sheep's neck, and the small spoon spear followed, stabbing it to death with one shot.

"Ah, two people can't eat so much. The sheep was killed, and the two hesitated.

"And if you want to get it cooked, I'm afraid you have to get it until the evening. Xiao Jiu also replied.

Suddenly, there was a crow cry in the air, and the crow fluttered down: "You two are lazy to hunt goats, I'll tell Kevin." ”

"Oh, then tell him. The little spoon spread his hands.

The crow was helpless and changed the subject: "What are the clues?"

The two girls shook their heads together.

"You all shake your heads the same frequency, don't you say you're lazy? The crow couldn't help but complain.

"Wait," Xiao Jiu seemed to suddenly think of something, turned his head and asked Xiao Spoon, "Your speed is faster than mine, why are you still chasing after me? Yesterday's figure may be in danger, so everyone has a response, but today's sheep ......"

Little Spoon scratched his head: "I don't seem to think about it so much, I just don't think there's any need to run too fast." ”

The two looked at each other for a moment, and Xiao Jiu proposed: "Let's run together for a while, you must be faster than me." ”

"Oh. Little Spoon readily agreed, and the two immediately started running synchronously, and Little Spoon overtook Xiao Jiu in a moment, and then waited for her in the distance.

"And then?" said the little spoon, spreading his hands, "is this the magic solved?"

Xiao Jiu panted and caught up: "Yes, this is a kind of mental suggestion." It's just relatively mild, so it's easy to break. ”

"Did we really fall for the illusion, and when?" the little spoon wondered, and the crow stopped on her shoulder.

Xiao Jiu explained: "The illusion in us yesterday should be a very rare synchronous illusion. I've only seen it in some books, and there are fewer spiritual spells, and this kind of spell is more difficult to practice, and there are generally fewer of them. ”

"What is the Synchrony Illusion?" asked Spoon.

"Let's put it this way, people have some subconscious actions," Xiao Jiu explained, "For example, if you are walking down the street and someone suddenly smirks, then you will subconsciously look back at him." But on the other hand, it can also be said that this person is able to control your neck and head to turn by giggling, you know?"

Little Spoon: "En......"

"There are many subconscious actions, such as a gluttonous person who feels hungry when he sees a picture of a delicious food. A person who is afraid of the cold will feel cold when he sees others not wearing pants. A person who is afraid of heat will feel hot when he sees others wearing cotton clothes. It hurts when someone another person with a needle. Do you understand?" Xiao Jiu explained further.

"This ...... Isn't that a common trick used by bards?" the little spoon reacted, "Writing a paragraph can make people empathize. ”

"But the Synchronous Illusion is much stronger than this," Xiao Jiu explained, "The top master of the Synchronous Illusion can show you something to eat, and then you will starve to death." ”

"Wow, that's amazing?" the little spoon was a little unimaginable.

"However, synchronous illusions are also a large category, and they are also divided into low, medium, and high-level specific spells. Unlike trance, which directly releases the spirit, stuns or controls the opposite spell, the key to synchronizing the opponent's subconscious mind is to synchronize the opponent's subconscious mind, and then drive the opponent's subconscious action. ”

Xiao Jiu thought for a moment: "I remember a relatively low-end spell, such as 'Neck is itchy and itchy', when fighting, he kept telling the other party that his neck was itchy and itchy, and when there was a gap, he would subconsciously scratch his neck, but if he held a sword in his hand, it was possible to stab himself to death." ”

Little Spoon: "......"

"The key to sync spells is syncing, and once it's synced, it's hard to get out of it. That is, in fact, your neck is not itchy, he can't control your sense of touch, as long as you hold back, it's fine. But once you subconsciously scratch it, you are synchronized, and after being synchronized, you will inevitably forget that you still have a sword in your hand. People who react quickly can stop when they are in pain, but it is inevitable to be stabbed. ”

"The advantage is that the activation is extremely subtle, and many people who have fallen for the illusion are still awake and insist that they are not under control and do not feel that anyone has attacked them. Even if you stab yourself, you will feel that you have accidentally forgotten that you have a sword in your hand. However, its disadvantages are also obvious, the effect in actual combat is slow, and there are probabilities, and it is best to collect information about the enemy in advance, such as his living habits or interests. It's different to deal with different enemies, so there are very few people who practice. ”

Little Spoon and Crow glanced at each other: "Is there such an unpopular character here?"

"The problem is that the general synchronization illusion comes one by one, and he can actually synchronize the two of us at the same time, this strength is beyond my cognition," Xiao Jiu's face showed a melancholy color, "And I still don't know when I was caught in the illusion." ”

"Then do you speculate on the strength of the other party?" the crow began.

Xiao Jiu was silent for a moment: "My cognition comes from textbooks, and those who are beyond my cognition are also those who are beyond textbooks." As for what strength ......"
