Chapter Eighty-Eight: Strange Gatherings

Last night before departure.

Arthur's room was filled with people, and in addition to Joan and Golly, there were four new faces.

Nini's friend, Amy Molly, a wood magician.

Except for Golly, everyone else is no stranger to Amy, especially Arthur, who has met Amy in the first round of the assessment for two consecutive years. The unexpected teaming up of the two made Arthur a little embarrassed.

The other three youths were Morar's friends, the ice mage Chisno, and the third-level warriors Gunther and Dorne.

Gunther was tall, muscular, and grim-looking, carrying a shield and an exaggerated double-edged one-handed axe behind his back.

Dorne was emaciated, with a slender sword stuck diagonally at his waist, always squinting at his small eyes, and always peeking at Golly when others weren't looking.

Ever since the two men entered the house, Golly's murderous gaze had been fixed on Moral.

"What's the situation?" Arthur quietly poked Moral.

"Chasing Golly, I only revealed that I could form a team with Golly, and the two of them obediently paid the registration fee. Moral whispered in Arthur's ear.

"I really can't figure it out, how can any man like Golly's temper?"

"Arthur, what are you two muttering, why hasn't your date arrived yet?" Goli took the lead in her anger at Arthur.

Before Arthur could reply, there was a knock on the door, and Morar hurried to open it.

Looking at the dark-skinned young man who walked in, everyone was stunned.

Huey, the half-orc who can't be provoked, why is he here?

"I don't need to introduce you, Huey, he's on our team this time. Arthur introduced to the crowd.

Golly nodded to Huey with a blank face, Joan smiled and waved her hand at Huey, while the others remained stunned.

Arthur, Golly, and Joan have at least a few friends, while Huey has none in the academy. The children of these wealthy nobles rejected the illegitimate children and the status of half-orcs from the heart, and none of them wanted to approach Huey.

As a wild boy from the countryside, Arthur deeply understands this feeling of being invisibly excluded, and Arthur chooses to ignore it, he is not destined to be in the same circle as these people.

Anyone who shows the slightest contempt or repulsion in front of Huey will be attacked by Huey, like Gunther and Dorne who were present were beaten by Huey.

Huey's choice of approach made him even more isolated, and everyone deliberately distanced himself from him. If Arthur hadn't taken the initiative to find Huey this time, I'm afraid that no team would be willing to take the initiative to accept him, and he could only build a team by force of force, but in the end, he was likely to be killed by his 'teammates'.

However, Huey's powerful combat power cannot be denied by anyone, and Huey, who is already a fourth-order captain, has a greater chance of winning against a fifth-order martial artist.

Chisno's eyes were already straight, and he poked Moral with his hand, "The four wonderful people are gathered, the strength of this team is simply too hard! Brother, it's so interesting for you to think about me!"

Morar looked proud, "There are four of them, let's lie down and win this time!Don't forget what you said at the time, drunk in the country for a month!"

Qi Snow smiled and said, "Don't worry, if I go back to the first place this time, the old man of our family will definitely reward me with thousands of gold coins as soon as he is happy." ”

"Now that everyone is here, I will now talk about the rules of my team, and when the time comes, we will act in unison, and no one can act without obeying the command. Golly stared at Arthur and Huey as she spoke, and the warning could not have been more obvious.

"Wait. Arthur stopped Golly from continuing to say, "What do you call your team, I think we should officially elect a captain to come out, and then talk about unified command!"

"Arthur, are you deliberately going against me?" Golly glared at Arthur with big eyes.

Arthur hurriedly smiled and waved his hand, "I don't dare, I'm just not worried that this mission will be led by a captain who has no experience." ”

"Arthur, I remember you!" Golly glared at Arthur again, then turned her head and put on a smiling face, "Since someone has an opinion, then I'll give way, let's vote, and see who everyone believes more?"

Arthur had no objection to this.

"I'm not involved, I don't have a problem with whoever is the captain. Huey was unexpectedly the first to speak.

"I'm not involved either. Joan said with a smile.

"Okay, you two don't participate in the vote of eight. Now let's vote on the show of hands for me to be captain. Golly started right away.

I saw that except for Arthur, seven hands were raised in unison.

Awkward scene, Arthur couldn't help but yell: "Moral, you bastard, which side are you on?"

Morar shrank back, "Boss, good men don't fight women!"

"Arthur, do you see, do you have anything else to say?" Goley forced a smile and looked at Arthur triumphantly.

"You unprincipled fellows will be killed by this woman sooner or later!" Arthur covered his face with his hands.

"Since everyone trusts me and chooses me as the captain, I will assign the task below, Arthur is responsible for the logistics of our team, and Arthur is responsible for the purchase and carrying of food, medicine, and vulnerable equipment for the whole team during the mission. In addition, Arthur, you have to give full play to your advantages, and take on more ...... of reconnaissance and pathfinding tasks."

"Now start putting on your own shoes, only women and villains are difficult to raise!" Arthur kept cursing in his heart with his head down.

.....

The Marquis' Palace, in a side room.

"Second brother, you must help me this time, if I miss this time, I will never have a chance to take revenge!" Zilao begged his second brother in a low voice, the last king of wonders in the academy.

"Grandpa said, you can only do this by yourself. If I help you, who will bear the blame after Grandpa?" Chivolen calmly looked at Zirao, who was in a low voice, but he didn't expect that this third brother, who was once prouder than himself, would now come to beg him in a low voice.

"For the sake of our own brothers, you can help me this time! You are about to be knighted when you come back from the border this time, and grandpa will not punish you even if he knows!"

Chivolen looked at Zilao with a smile, "Brother is right, but will the eldest brother give you the title of inheritance? Tell me, why should I risk the title I'm about to put on my hands to help you?"

Zirao lowered his head and bit his lip in silence.

Chivolen waved his hand, "Forget it, why do you have to fight that wild boy now." Put your heart on cultivation, and get the title after graduation, Grandpa Lu in the back has already arranged it for us, and you will have the opportunity to clean him up in the future. ”

Zirao raised his head suddenly, "Arthur will not die, my demons will not be removed! I will officially become an adult by the end of the year, as long as you help me to help, then the family will share the property in my name according to the share, and I am willing to give you half of it." ”

Ziravo was stunned for a moment, then pushed a piece of paper in front of Zirao, and said with a smile: "I didn't force you, write an agreement." ”
