As a hero

The sense of joy is fleeting.

The next moment, endless guilt emerged!

William Smith raised his slightly trembling hands before his eyes, staring blankly——

He remembered.

He cannot forget.

When the Extinct Gargoyle ascended to the sky and used the Extinct Wind to face him, the blue wind blade ruthlessly tore his back, and he fell to the ground.

It's hard to describe William's state of mind at the time.

He was terrified, he was desperate, his mind was blank, and the only thing left was the instinct to survive.So, he grabbed the knight Ge Gelu, he wanted to use Ge Gelu's body as a shield, and wanted to get under him to resist the next attack of the gargoyle.

But the excessive blood loss drained his strength, and the severe pain made his hands tremble.

He tried very hard to turn Ge Gelu's body over, but the unconscious Ge Gelu was too heavy, and the fat on his body made it impossible for William Smith to exert force, and he couldn't move it even a second before he lost consciousness. Goggle in the slightest--

The posture of the two of them at that time, it looked like he wanted to use his body to resist the attack for Ge Gelu.

But what William thought in his heart was completely the opposite!

"Am I... am I considered a brave man?"

William was so ashamed that he closed his eyes in pain.

"Hey! Ge Gelu, be careful."

"I - your greasy technique is really annoying, you can't even wash it off! I almost fell to my death!"

"Is it funny? Without my greasy technique, you would have been caught and eaten by the gargoyle long ago!"

The voices of Gegelie and Gegelu came from outside the door.

When William heard the sound of the door opening, he quickly closed his eyes.Brother Gege walked into the room softly, and checked William's state—he wasn't awake yet.

With a hiss, Ge Gelu put the food in his hands aside and said, "This shouldn't be...Yuan Ge used most of the bottle of life potion on him, even a dead person should live, this night Still awake?"

Gege Lie didn't care: "You didn't see how much blood Lord William bleed. It's normal for the coma to be longer, as long as you're out of danger."

Ok.

Makes sense.

The two brothers watched for a while, but neither of them spoke.Ge Gelu leaned against the wall, looked at William carefully, and suddenly said: "Brother, I have no other intentions. Tell me...how is Lord William's strength?"

William frowned.

He suppressed it and didn't make a sound.

Ge Gelie sat on the chair and turned his head to look: "How do you say it?"

"It's not that I'm too thoughtful, look..." Ge Gelu scratched his head, and said after a while, "Was it really Lord William who killed the teasing demon king?"

silence!

silence!

Like iron, be silent!

William clenched his fists!

yes!How could it not arouse suspicion?

Gargoyles are indeed strong, they are immune to magic, they are fast, and they can fly.Even an experienced and well-equipped senior adventure party can easily be wiped out by a gargoyle group.

but……

William Smith is the orthodox hero who killed the Joking Demon King!

He even killed the devil, how could a mere gargoyle be his opponent?The main reason why Brother Gege obeyed William's command and went up without hesitation was William.

They trust him a lot.

Even if there is a problem, presumably as long as the orthodox brave lord shows his power a little, the monster can be solved cleanly and neatly.

But the result was unexpected.

If it wasn't for the sudden appearance of Yuan Ge and Ships, it might not be the gargoyle that died, but them.

No one in the room spoke, Ge Gelu licked his lips, and said: "Brother, don't be silent... It's not unreasonable for me to say this, no one knows how the teasing devil died, we only know- —”

"do not talk!"

Gegelie spoke suddenly, interrupting Gegelu's words.

He stood up and looked at Ge Gelu angrily: "Ge Gelu, I don't know why you have such thoughts! Until the last moment, Lord William also used his body to protect you! He tried to block those attacks for you with his body! This Isn’t it his identity? If he is not an orthodox brave man, how could he have such a benevolent heart?”

"Brother, I didn't mean that..."

"Stop talking! Ge Gelu, you are a knight, you must be upright! What happened to us must never be mentioned to anyone. Forget the gargoyles, forget this journey, and pretend nothing happened. The most urgent thing now is to think about how we can go back."

Footsteps sounded, and Ge Ge Lie left the room.

Immediately afterwards, Ge Gelu also left the room.

"..."

William opened his eyes, but there was no light in his eyes.

How to become an orthodox brave man is not clear to others, but William himself knows it best.He can fool everyone, but not himself.

It is different from Yuan Ge.

After learning that he had crossed, William cheered and was ecstatic. He looked at the glowing equipment on his body and the gorgeous longbow in his hand, and he couldn't be more excited!

He found a training ground and unleashed his skills on the target——

Lightning Bolt, Frostbolt;

Triple shot, powerful hit.

The fiftieth-level ult moves violent wind, the [-]-level ult suppresses shooting, and the [-]-level ult penetrates the sun.

The moves with gorgeous effects in the game were performed one after another in his hands. He felt the tremor of the longbow in his hand, looked at the arrow craters one after another on the training ground, and felt that his life had reached the peak!

What he didn't expect was that he turned out to be the "orthodox brave" of Scanuti!

The Demon King, who had never been defeated for thousands of years, was killed by him.

He is a hero praised by everyone, in the streets and alleys, temples and markets, as long as there are people, his name is chanted.The minister made friends with him, the king received him, and invitations to the meeting floated to him like snowflakes. Everyone hoped that William Smith could attend the banquet at his house.

And Rose Shipps.

After becoming an orthodox hero, the hidden condition for achieving full favorability was finally fulfilled, and Shipps' feelings for him reached love.

Now, however, William Smith found out in despair——

He is not an orthodox warrior.

He seems to be nothing special, and even a little mean.At the last moment of his life, he tried to exchange the lives of others for his own. Would a real brave man do this?

More cruel and ridiculous.

William Smith did not have the courage to speak the truth.

Ge Gelie misunderstood, he heard it all, but he didn't mean to be half honest, and he was even very grateful in his heart.Fortunately, no one found out his true thoughts.

"...I am like this, am I considered an orthodox hero?"

William Smith stared blankly at the ceiling.

He gave up thinking.

Chapter 72

In the game Unlimited, the first NPC that each player sees after the account is created is a "prophet".The Prophet will simply popularize the pattern of unlimited science, and then tell the players——

"You are the hero of prophecy."

In the true infinite world, the brave do exist.

And indeed it was foretold by the prophets.

However, brave men are not uncommon.In addition to the players like Yuan Ge and William Smith, there are also quite a few brave warriors among the local aborigines in Unlimited.

As the legendary person who can defeat the devil, the brave has been respected for a long time.

But after thousands of years, the brave man has changed countless times, and none of the demon kings died. Of course, the brave man now acts more as a mascot, and people don't care much about them.

William Smith, a little differently.

As the person who "killed the demon king of teasing" in people's mouth, he is a real brave man.

His reputation not only resounded in Chescanuti, but even foreign countries were extolling his name. William Smith was a smash hit and a hero praised by people.

And people like Yuan Ge, although they are brave on the list, they don't actually get any benefits from it, and they are generally not much different from ordinary adventurers.

It is said that the palace will specially raise a brave man, mainly to act as a facade, to show off his majesty on important occasions and so on - of course this kind of good thing is not up to Yuan Ge, and William Smith is still a bit competitive.

Yuan Ge and the others walked indoors and saw Ge Ge brothers playing chess.

When the two saw Hipps, they quickly got up and said, "Miss Hipps, good day."

Hilps smiled slightly: "Good day."

Gege Lie looked at Yuan Ge again, and said, "Mr. Yuan, good day! I'm finally relieved to see you all come back safely—you're not in any danger, are you?"

"No, it's very safe. Is Lord William there? We have figured out the source of the fel energy outbreak. Everyone pack up and go home."

Brother Gege breathed a sigh of relief.

Ge Gelie said: "Master William's injury is very good. I have been worried about you all these days—especially Miss Ships' safety. He is resting in his room now, please come with me."

He took the lead and led Yuan Ge and Ships into the room.

A click.

He opened the door.

The strange sound of baji baji sounded at this moment.

Yuan Ge raised his eyes and glanced into the room, just in time to see William Smith and Little Bauhinia talking mouth to mouth.Looking at the faces of the two, it is estimated that they have a very happy conversation, and there may be a next step soon.

"Oh—God of the White Dove, bless this couple."

La Latina has not forgotten her character.

She showed a shy, curious, and playful smile, and sighed like a saint.

Hilps was slightly taken aback, and an elegant smile suddenly appeared on his face.

The sudden opening of the door naturally disturbed the busy two.William Smith was also taken aback, he quickly pushed away Little Bauhinia, strode up to Hipps, and held her hand again with a "snap": "Hips, are you okay? God where are you? I'm worried about you!"

"Ah yes?"

Schippers smiled, and firmly pulled out his palm.

She took out the silk scarf with her backhand, and carefully wiped the hand that was held just now.Then he looked up at William and said, "Thanks to Yuan Ge's personal protection for the past half month, I'm safe and sound."

"..."

"..."

What are you doing?

You young couple have emotions, what does it matter to me, Yuan Ge?

Don't pull on me at every turn, I'm very embarrassed!

Yuan Ge quickly said: "Nothing. You know my role best, William. These days, Miss Ships has been protecting me, and I haven't done anything."

Schippers was upset, as long as he was not blind, he could see it.

William is not a fool, of course he can understand Ships' feelings, but there are beauties in both front and back, and no one can offend.Hilps' life or death was uncertain, but he, William Smith, gnawed mouth to mouth with Little Bauhinia, which made him completely lose the initiative. He couldn't laugh or cry for a while, and he could only show an embarrassing gesture .

Yuan Ge looked forward to it.

He wanted to see how William would deal with the current situation—he, Yuan, might be useful, and it was always right to learn first.

To Yuan Ge's disappointment, William couldn't give an answer.

After tidying up her clothes, Little Bauhinia stepped forward and said, "Sister Qiangwei, you're back? Brother William was still worried about you just now!"
