Chapter 470: A Solution to the Problem (4/3, W Word Update Asking for a Monthly Pass~)

"I'm not in the same department as you, so don't be polite."

Expressionless, Ian raised his hand and stopped the captain's words: "Go ahead with your mission." ”

"Report to the sir, the mission has been completed."

The silver-gray haired Iron Man smiled rather stiffly, and he respectfully took out a blank report and pen from his bosom and handed it to Ian, "How many do you say?" ”

"Not a single one. It's a very well-behaved town. ”

Ian glanced at the report, then marked a '0' and returned it to the captain: "Take it." You're good. ”

As he spoke, at some point, an alchemy potion glowing green shone between the returned pen and paper.

"It's ......"

The captain named Fasha's eyes widened, and he instinctively sensed the danger and cost of the potion, and carefully held it in his hand.

"The queen of ants is poisonous." Ian said lightly: "Be careful not to leak it out, it's a very expensive thing...... It's also dangerous. Remember to give it to the person who should give it, you know. ”

"Yes, sir!" Fasa shuddered, but his face was beaming.

"Well, let's go." Ian waved his hand, and although he didn't show an impatient expression, his tone was very obvious.

Fasa saluted Ian again, then turned around and yelled at the team behind him, "All back!" Release people, today's mission is over! ”

The guards did not hesitate and quickly unshackled everyone and put them back.

The armor was activated again, and the search party left the town of Garr.

On the way, the team member who had been reprimanded before approached with some puzzlement - he was related to the captain: "Captain, why are you so polite to that young boy?" He seems to be a little better-looking...... Some, right? It should be the first energy level, even if there is any background, it will not be so respectful......"

"You know what."

And Captain Fasha glared at him, and he said softly: "If it is an eighteen or twenty-year-old first-level sublimator, then you can deal with it as a young junior." ”

"If he is sixteen years old, he must be called respectfully, treated politely, and if necessary, let him do what he wants, and we don't care."

"But if it's the young one over there, with a tender face, he's still a psyker...... It's better to call me a polite sir, he can say whatever he wants, he wants you to be a dog, you better snort. ”

"Not to mention, that's the person I've been looking for...... Do you know why he gave me this potion? ”

Carefully raising the 'Queen Ant Poison' potion in his hand, staring at the emerald green glass bottle, Captain Fasha's tone carried a hint of emotion: "Because he knows very well, I can see his identity...... And also know my mission. ”

"This bottle of potion can analyze how far his alchemy level has reached - he is such a genius who has attracted attention! You should also pay attention to me in the future, and think clearly, why the younger you are, the less people can be offended! ”

Ian watched them leave, he could hear the conversation, but he didn't have much emotion.

The boy looked around the plain of Quinor.

- He can only help one town...... That's all.

He shouldn't have to help just one. It's not the townsfolk who are at fault.

The boy turned his head, and he looked at the mayor with a complicated expression, and then nodded calmly slightly: "Only this time can help you." ”

"Thank you...... Thank you, Ian...... Master. ”

The old man, who had been a little tempered before, lowered his head, and the old man bent down and thanked him seriously, but he couldn't say a few words that were not repeated: "Thank you...... Thank you very much......"

"No thanks."

Ian lowered his eyes and said, "In a way, this is indeed a crime. Be sure to be ready next time. ”

He can only say this kind of official scene.

"We get it...... But! Mayor Yemmer suppressed his throat, he straightened up, but did not raise his head, just clasped his hands: "But I really don't understand, just live here, how can I break the law......"

"We have all paid taxes, we have all paid in full, and we have never been in arrears - it's just that we have to go to the city for more than ten or twenty days for a temporary residence permit, where can ordinary families afford it, and we ...... things once every six months."

"I didn't hear what you said, Elder Grandpa, they didn't go far."

Ian sighed, he raised his head and looked at Aunt Julia, who was faintly poking out half of her head in the house, and the boy smiled and waved: "Apple pie is delicious!" Thank you, Auntie! ”

But the aunt retreated back into the house.

Ian didn't care, he just put down his hand and continued to say to the mayor, "Mr. mayor, I have one more question for you......"

But the old man suddenly broke out.

"I know what you, the knight, want to ask......"

The old man, who was already very red in the skin, but now even redder, took a step forward, grabbed the part of the armor of Ian's left hand tightly with both hands, he raised his head, his eyes were red, and said, "Why do we have to live next to the imperial capital?" Yes, there have been knights who have helped us before, and he asked this question like you - really, you high-ranking people can't think about it?! ”

"It's a good environment, it's a good place to live...... It's that simple! After the Dark Moon Turmoil, we spent half our lives rebuilding the imperial capital, and we didn't even have the qualifications to live next to it?! ”

"Yes, we are insatiable, if we are good, we want to be better, since we can come to live next to the imperial capital, we must hope to live forever! So those people want to stay here even if they don't have a temporary residence permit, don't have the time and don't have the money! ”

"We were wrong, but ......"

“…… No, it's not anyone's fault that you want to live in a better place, and it's definitely not insatiable. ”

- This system is not reasonable.

Ian was silent for a moment, then said slowly, "Actually, I'm not asking this question. ”

"Mayor Mare, what I want to ask is actually quite simple."

Ian sighed, and he pointed to the pillar of light in the distant imperial capital: "Does this thing have an impact on your usual life?" ”

"It's not noticeable during the day, but it should be brighter at night, right? Does this pillar of light have a certain effect on the growth of crops? Or is it okay? ”

"I've wanted to ask this question from the beginning, and now I'm leaving, so I have to ask it quickly...... That's all I want to ask. ”

"This, this...... Nothing to do? ”

The old man was stunned, and then replied with a little stammer: "Maybe it's a facilitating effect?" The fruits of the imperial capital are sweeter than other places......"

"Is that so......" Nodding slightly, Ian said thoughtfully, "Then I understand, thank you, Mayor Yemer......"

At this time, Aunt Julia also came out of the house.

"Here, here!"

She deftly trotted all the way, holding a large package, and enthusiastically handed it to Ian, "Oops, this pie hasn't been eaten yet...... He knew that the knight might be leaving soon, but the food should not be wasted......"

Nagging, she forcefully stuffed the package with apple pie to Ian, which made the boy stunned, and then laughed: "Thank you so much, Sister Julia~"

"Oops, the mouth is so sweet~" Haha laughed, the fat aunt shook her head and shook her head in joy, and Ian smiled goodbye to the two: "Then I hope to see you again, the apple pie is really delicious, but next time I want to eat strawberry pie!" ”

"Also, the money is on the table!"

With that, he turned over and sat on the horse that had come to the front door of the mansion at some point, and Birch and Frostbutterfly were waiting for him on another horse.

He left the town of Garr and sped north.

"Ian, you're calm."

On the way, Hua Di said to the young man with some surprise: "I thought you would reprimand those guards fiercely and help the mayor and aunt to break the siege, but I didn't expect you to solve the matter so plainly!" ”

"What's wrong with the guards that they need me to reprimand?"

And Ian held the reins of the horse and said lightly: "The more prosaic the solution to the matter, the better it will be for the people of that town...... I'm not strong enough to scare people away with my name, and if I don't want the guards to turn back and take revenge on the townspeople, that would be the perfect solution. ”

"I have a channel to deliver news to the imperial capital, and the guard can get the reward from above, and the town of Gar will be safe for at least two years, and the people above will know my specific character and conduct as a result...... Win-win. ”

"Whew...... It's so cold! ”

Miss Fairy hugged the Frost Butterfly flying in front of her, and she sighed, "You are more like an ice butterfly than the Frost Butterfly!" Is it true that the more people who know, the calmer they are? That's how my teachers ......."

"I just know, it's actually powerless."

Hearing this, Ian laughed instead, and he shook his head slightly: "And your teacher will definitely be able to solve some problems more thoroughly." ”

Be...... There are a lot of things I know. Just understanding doesn't solve anything. Only students will feel that understanding can solve problems.

- I'm not a student anymore.

"Who said that?" But Birch retorted, "Aren't you a perfect solution to the town's problems?" Don't be unhappy! ”

Ian was stunned for a moment, he wanted to say that he was laughing, why was he unhappy, but then he was silent.

It's just that, in the silence, the corners of his mouth curled slightly.

In this regard...... It's the goblins who say it right.

In this way, in the smiling silence, the boys and goblins arrived at the entrance of the imperial capital.
