"You can think of it as an investment. We are optimistic about your future. Plus, there is a mission that needs you now, so we are eager for you to join."
Xiao Yue said sincerely. Although she didn't know what the Red Lotus Knights were, most people were easily tempted when they heard her say that.
"Forget it, I'll stay here for half a year. I have no interest in knights. I'm an adventurer and a person who yearns for freedom. The public office of the Knights is not suitable for me. I always feel that I will be restricted."
Ilana, who was still very hesitant just now, waved his hand uninterestedly. He really had no interest in the Knights.
Becoming an adventurer is like being a mercenary. Just take any suitable mission. Even if you don't take it, no one will force you in most cases.
But becoming a Knights is equivalent to becoming the army of a certain organization. Soldiers have the obligation to rush over wherever there is a problem. Obeying orders is their duty. Freedom will only affect discipline.
In his previous life, Ilana had already rejected the conditions of an organization inviting him to become a commander. Now he naturally doesn't want to join a similar organization.
Half a year of separation would indeed make people lonely, but Elaina had left Weiwei enough money to run the orphanage for half a year. If she saved a little, she might not be able to spend it all in one or two years, but at least she would not be short of money.
Although she could not guarantee that no one would embarrass the orphanage in the next half year, she had already made an agreement with Weiwei that if someone really came to embarrass her, she would sell the orphanage or give the necklace to someone else.
The most important thing was to save her own life first. It didn't matter if she had money to stay in a hotel. Only by living could there be hope.
It should be no problem to take the initiative to hide from the limelight and live for half a year. Things were not as urgent as imagined.
"Don't, we really need you. The Red Lotus Knights are different from other knights. They are not as restrained as you think. At least compared with the Judgment Knights, our members are very free!"
Xiaoyue was a little panicked. She didn't expect Elaina to refuse this. Being a member of the Knights was really a very tempting condition outside. She was deceived in this way... and was attracted to come in.
"Come on, although I don't know what your Red Lotus Knights are like, it's definitely not a good place. Most Knights' Orders look at background in addition to strength and future. There are so many people out there who have better conditions and cleaner backgrounds than me, but you don't go to find them. Instead, you waste time and effort to come all the way here.
You targeted me in jail now, knew that I urgently needed to get out, and used this kind of thing as a condition to tempt me. You can't recruit anyone for your Red Lotus Knights, right?"
Ilaina turned his head and squinted at Xiaoyue. Seeing the other party's wavering look, he thought he probably guessed it right.
"How did you know?"
Xiaoyue was also honest. She didn't hide it when she was poked, and asked helplessly.
"I don't want to say it. I'm afraid someone will be unhappy."
There was no answer to Xiaoyue's meaning, because the reason why Ilaina knew that there was something wrong with the Red Lotus Knights was that Xiaoyue's existence told him a lot of things.
I mentioned before that the Knights usually look at one's origin and family, but Xiaoyue, a mixed-blood of the East and the West, probably isn't much better in terms of origin or family.
To put it bluntly, Xiaoyue is often looked down upon by others when she goes out. Humans are creatures that exclude those who are different, or most of life is like this.
But Xiaoyue is able to join an official organization like the Knights, and it seems that her status is relatively high. Compared with other Knights, there are definitely some problems.
"Oh, that's a pity. It really shouldn't be me who negotiates, but the other people in the Knights are unreliable. Except for me, no one is good at doing this kind of thing."
Although it was very obscure, Xiaoyue still understood what Elena meant, and played with her hair helplessly. This black hair really brought her a lot of trouble.
She didn't want to come at first, but one of the other people in the Knights was probably still sleeping on a woman's belly, and the other was probably still in a state of autism, chopping zombies in the cemetery to vent.
"Elena, you are an adventurer, right? I don't expect you to join the Knights, but there is one thing we really need your help with. As long as you are willing to help, I can still get you out early."
A forced melon is not sweet, Xiaoyue will not force it, but there is one thing that Elena must help with. It is because of this that she wants her to join. Otherwise, she would not come to the cell to rescue people under normal circumstances.
The Red Lotus Knights she is in are not good at anything, and they even have no control over the members' departure.I am very concerned about my body, and generally I will not choose people who have been in prison as backup players. After all, no one knows what kind of person Elana is.
According to the information, the reason why Elana attacked the businessman Stanford was because he had a conflict with the orphanage. In the eyes of those who know the situation, the reason why Elana went to trouble Stanford was more or less revengeful.
The robbers just blocked Elana's way. If the robbers did not stop Elana at the beginning but "welcomed" him, I am afraid that Elana would not even care about them and only attacked Stanford.
The fact is indeed so. Elana has no idea of eliminating violence and protecting the good. He only attacked because others threatened his life. He is not as full of justice as imagined.
Even for his own life and the people around him, he doesn't mind attacking those innocent people as long as the other party really threatens him.
"Speak."
Xiaoyue raised her eyebrows at Elena's cold attitude. She looked so cute but was so difficult to get along with. This negotiation was much more tiring than she had imagined.
"Ahem, a cemetery outside the North City District has been overrun with undead recently, and many corpses have turned into zombies and skeletons and other undead monsters. The reason for all this is that a bone dragon that has been sealed for a thousand years has revived.
We, the Red Lotus Knights, accepted the mission to defeat the undead bone dragon. The undead bone dragon is indeed not as scary as a real dragon, but except for attacks with evil-breaking effects or holy light magic, the damage to the undead is very limited.
We, the Red Lotus Knights, suffered heavy losses and had no way to defeat the bone dragon and could only flee. And at this time we heard rumors about you. Adventurers in the North City District Guild said that you have the potential to become a priest, so we want to use your power to defeat this bone dragon."
After Xiaoyue finished speaking, she felt that it was a bit unreliable to let others and herself defeat the bone dragon right away, even though compared to the real dragon, the bone dragon is only a first-tier undead, not the top creature in the past.
But no matter what, it is still a dragon. It is not as powerful as it was when it was alive, and it is definitely not something that ordinary people dare to provoke. At least, bronze-level adventurers will not provoke it.
"Okay, but the price I offer will be very high. You'd better give me a satisfactory price."
However, what Xiaoyue did not expect was that she thought Elena would refuse and look at her like a psychopath.
After all, even if it was just a bone dragon, she was calling this young boy to slay the dragon. Only a fool would accept such a task.
But Elena accepted it without hesitation, as if she had been waiting for such a task.
