The fire is slightly extinguished, and it is quiet in the dead of night.

Ji Eun stepped softly into the village, and it seemed that all the villagers had begun to rest, only on the fire pit, there were still people setting up flames to prevent them from being extinguished.

Chi En strolled past to the thatched hut where he had meditated in the afternoon to restore his dharma, and to his surprise, there was no one to rest in his thatched hut.

I thought that there should be villagers sleeping in the position of this thatched house, after all, there are only two thatched houses, and the location is very narrow, but I didn't expect that there is no one in this thatched house.

In a thatched hut like this, three people squeezing into a pile is already the limit.

The other three were in another straw hut, and the other was sitting outside by the fire pit, which should have slept on his side, but he didn't stay in the straw hut late at night and roasted the fire outside.

Suddenly, a figure floating beside the fire pit came to him.

As the silhouette of the figure became clearer and clearer, Ji En finally saw who he was.

Sean, a burly middle-aged man who had gone out of the village with him before.

Holding the roast snake meat wrapped in green horns in his hand, he was not surprised to see Ji En come back, but just walked directly to the thatched hut and sat directly on the ground of the straw hut, sitting next to Ji En.

Chi En glanced at it, didn't say much, moved a position for Sean and lay down to rest, in a dormant state, both physical strength and normal recovery are extremely efficient, not only can the spirit be better replenished, but also much more efficient than meditating during the day to recover the normal value.

And in the village, as long as his identity has not become a traitor, he can enjoy territorial protection and there will be no danger, even if these villagers have the crazy one who doesn't know whether to live or die, there will be no problem under the territorial protection measures.

What's more, these villagers are not capable of yin him, so he can naturally enter a deep sleep with peace of mind.

"Would you like to eat something, freshly baked." Although the voice is small, the words are very clear, this is Sean's voice.

Although it was not said to anyone in the language, it was obvious that such a small voice was definitely not spoken to the villagers who had fallen asleep in the grass hut opposite, and there was no one else beside him except Ji En.

"No need, you can eat." After being silent for a long time, Ji Eun said.

The night air fell silent again, and after a few more moments, a nonchalant smile appeared on Sean's face, and he began to remove the black green horn shell from the roast.

Then he took a bite of the barbecue and began to chew, although the sound was not loud, but after all, in the silence of the night, even the most quiet movements would be amplified several times.

"I know that someone as powerful as you disdains to be in the company of those of us who are destined to be small people for the rest of their lives."

After taking a bite of the barbecue, Sean began to mumble to himself.

"I also know that a useless person like me, no matter how fiery his loyalty, is worthless to the lord."

"And you, even if you don't respect the lord, the lord still favors you, you are a capable person, worthy of respect, and honestly I really admire you."

"I can feel that the lord has little patience with the faithful but useless us, and you are completely different, I didn't deny the lord, I think she was right to do so, so, I hate my useless self."

Ivy's reverence for the villagers seems to be a bit misinterpreted in Sean's understanding, but it is certainly understandable.

Ji Eun opened his eyes and looked at Sean's back, and he completely confirmed what he had felt earlier.

These indigenous villagers are definitely different from the villagers in the previous life, and there must be a big problem here.

"I even have some hope that I have been swallowed by the great serpent and died heroically to save the lord."

"It's pretentious, isn't it, hahaha." Talking to himself and laughing at himself, Sean took another bite of the barbecue.

"Well, I agree with you, hypocrisy is secondary, the main thing is useless." Ji Eun mercilessly echoed Sean's statement.

Sean, who could have controlled his emotions well, stiffened for a moment, including his hand holding the barbecue in mid-air.

This is the first time that Ji En has spoken to other villagers when he comes here, but this opening is a little unexpected, but this sentence is also official for Ji En, and he sees the villagers in front of him as people like himself.

Sean stopped talking, as if he wanted to say something to refute, trying to regain some dignity and face, but in the end he fell silent.

"If you have something, just say it."

Ji Eun smelled the fragrant barbecue in Sien's hand, and took a bite of the barbecue that Sean had eaten in one hand.

It's a little overdone, the meat is very fluffy, but it's also more delicious, and it looks like it's been roasted for a long time.

In the middle of the night, he didn't eat the barbecued snake meat for so long, but he waited until Ji En came back to ask him if he wanted to eat barbecue.

Obviously, even Ji Eun can see that Sean has something to ask him for,

However, after he refused to barbecue, Sean was embarrassed to ask for help, he was a very good-looking person, Ji En could see that he might be unwilling, and began to talk to himself, maybe intentionally or unintentionally, but now Chi En has a little interest in this villager.

"Do I have a chance to get stronger, you say?" After the silence, Sean spoke slowly.

"Alas, it's really hard to talk to you, I want to be stronger, right, I'll ask you a word."

"Are you afraid of death?" Ji Eun took the last bite of the roast and asked with a somewhat slurred chew in his mouth.

"I'm afraid." Sean wasn't lying.

But then he clenched his fists again, looked directly into Ji En's eyes, and said solemnly.

"But I'm more afraid, mediocre and useless, I know that I don't have any other abilities, unlike Bender, how can they each have their own skills, I only have one strength, I don't want my strength to be used only to move things, I want to become stronger, to be able to become the most powerful person under the lord to protect here!"

I don't know what supported him to say this, maybe because of the lord he followed, or maybe because of himself, a middle-aged man's ambition.

"Well, just don't be afraid of death, if you want to become stronger, this road is very difficult for ordinary villagers to walk, and it will die easily, including me, if it weren't for some special reason, it would have been gone a long time ago."

"You don't have a special reason, sit back and prepare, maybe you will die tomorrow, so cherish your time."

Ji Eun was surprised and said gently to Sean.

If ordinary villagers are used as combat units, they are generally taken out as cannon fodder when the lord is really out of line, and it is extremely frustrating to upgrade and become stronger.

The attribute talent can't keep up, even if it is upgraded, it won't be very strong, the qualification gap is extremely difficult to learn skills, and the chance of Sean wanting to become a combat unit is too small, and it takes a lot of effort to barely keep up with normal combat units.

However, Ji Eun respects Sean and his path is much more difficult than his own.

"Tell the lord tomorrow, you can follow me when I leave the village in the future, but let me explain one thing in advance, if you don't meet my expectations, you should go back and stay in the village as soon as possible."

"Of course, if you really want to follow, you can do it, but I won't care about your life or death."

To be honest, Chi En still wants to cultivate this villager, not only because of interest, but also because of his current situation, if there is a warrior who can resist in close range and his long-range spell explosion, it will still play a great role in his early development.

Although this may allow him to develop shortcomings, but Ji En is not like all the time, this is just needed for a short transition period in the early stage, and when his magic attack is completely mature, and then improving melee combat through law cultivation to make up for shortcomings is the best solution and the fastest way to develop in an all-round way.

And Ji En's short early support position depends on whether Sean has the ability to keep up with his rhythm, of course, Ji En will still give him time to help him upgrade and become stronger, but if the effect is not satisfactory, he will naturally not waste time for him.

For Chi Eun, helping Sean become stronger is just a small investment.

"Alright, let's sleep."
