Chapter 37: Figures of Speech
In the face of such a friendly girl, Xavier didn't know what to say for a while, and was about to say something casually to prevaricate, but a few messages suddenly came to his mind.
[Hint: Ask the host to choose one of the following three expressions]
[1. Caroline, I like you. 】
[2. Caroline, you look cute now.] 】
[3. Since I saved your life, should you make a promise with your body?]
[Host has five seconds left]
In an instant, Xavier was stunned again.
How long has it been since this happened?
Since the last two incidents between Miss Hannah and Lysha, he has summarized the principle of the system's option to be triggered when Xavier first meets a woman.
But then he found out that this didn't seem to be true, such as Caisetti, who he had seen, and Isabella and Caroline, all of whom had no trigger options.
So he thought, is the system changing and not pestering him?
Now it seems that he is still too young, and the original good impression of the system has disappeared in an instant.
But at this moment, he had no choice, so he had to forcibly choose two.
"Caroline, you look lovely right now. ”
"Huh?" Hearing the squad leader in front of her suddenly say such words, Caroline's face suddenly showed a slight flush, and she hurriedly avoided Xavier's gaze, lowered her head and responded in a very small voice, "Thank you." ”
In fact, in her heart, there have been countless fluctuations, so that she does not dare to deal with Xavier's eyes, but she is looking forward to the next step.
But after a short brain freeze, the squad leader in front of him didn't have any follow-up movements, and waited for a long time before continuing: "Well, I think we'd better go out, I want to relax." ”
If there is an audience next to me, I guess I will be angry immediately, I will show me these with my eyes wide open?
But Caroline only looked lost for a moment, then gave a 'hmm' and picked up Xavier and walked out with him.
Walking out of the doorway, a series of cheers were heard, causing Xavier to hurriedly walk forward and ask the passerby in front of him what was going on.
"Reinforcements from the Empire are coming! The great men of the south have not given up on us! The barbarians are about to be expelled!"
In three simple sentences, Xavier understood what was happening, it seems that the imperial reinforcements have really arrived, and they are not dressed as barbarians!
Hearing this, a smile couldn't help but appear on the corner of his mouth, and he also understood why the task had been completed.
"Then again, aren't you the captain of Xavier's detachment?" The villager who was talking to him realized that it was the hero of the village standing next to him, "It's really a talent! No wonder he can directly enter the enemy's formation and cut off the head of the enemy's general!"
"Wait!I?, go straight into the enemy's array," Xavier repeated, rather inexplicably.
"That's right!" several villagers next to him echoed, "I heard the soldiers present say that you seem to have grown three heads and six arms at that time, and you jumped directly from under the wall on horseback, killing all the barbarians on the road, and finally beheading the enemy's general directly under the horse." ”
"By the way, the enemy general seems to be called Sauron, do you say?"
"Yes, yes, it's called Sauron!" a villager next to him chimed in.
"No, isn't it called Ernest?" someone retorted.
"! Ernest is the leader of that bandit cottage, and it seems that he was killed by the great Sir Lister!"
"Ahh
In the end, several people actually forgot that Xavier had this main master, and they all talked about what they had seen.
Listening to their respective bragging, Xavier began to understand how the legend in the Bard's mouth came from, and whether Ernest was the one who killed him or not!
And what kind of three-headed and six-armed slashing the opponent's general, it's a shame that they can come up with it, it's really ...... Creative!
But at this moment, he didn't bother to correct these villagers, the villagers, even if they like to brag, there is no need to be serious.
Then, he led Caroline, who was smiling behind him, through the villagers.
"That's the case with the country people, although they like to brag, but in fact they are honest people, as the saying goes, give peaches to someone else, and he will give me plums in return, and the villagers probably do the same. Xavier said Caroline, who had been in a position behind her.
"Well, I see, Mr. Xavier. ”
In the unconscious walk, Xavier found himself unconsciously walking towards the barracks, and he couldn't help but smile in his heart, sure enough, he had already become its shape.
Walking into the barracks, Xavier didn't find any reinforcements, it seemed that because those reinforcements didn't like this kind of environment, they chose to build a camp nearby, which also made Xavier breathe a sigh of relief, he was most afraid that his dormitory would be suddenly occupied by strangers.
At this moment, he saw Sir Liszt in the distance, working on a small project.
Seeing this, he hurriedly ran over with Caroline in the rear, and found that the captain was building tombstones.
Seeing Xavier coming, Sir Liszt hurriedly smiled, and Caroline next to her wanted to introduce herself, but Sir Liszt took the lead and said:
"You're Caroline, thank you for taking care of Xavier during this time. ”
"It's just my business......" Caroline replied, biting her lip.
"Thank you for that, too. The captain smiled, then turned his gaze to Xavier, "By the way, Xavier, how is the injury to his left hand?"
"Uh....." Xavier didn't know what his injuries were, so he had to look at Caroline next to him and ask her to answer for herself.
"Captain Xavier's injury has stabilized, but due to the fracture, it will take about two to three months to recover. Caroline replied earnestly.
Doesn't that mean that I can only become Yang Guo during this time?
Seeing the panicked expression on Xavier's face, Sir Liszt waved his hand and said that he had also had such an experience.
"Xavier, once I was hit by an arrow in the thigh, it was still a poisoned arrow, it took me half a year to recover, relatively speaking, your three months is not too long, you should take care of your injuries, don't force training, otherwise the injury will worsen!" said the captain as bitterly as a mother.
"Yes, Captain. Xavier nodded, as the saying goes, if you don't listen to the old man, you will suffer in front of you, although the captain is not an old man, but it will definitely not be wrong to listen to his advice.
