Mercenaries and Adventurers

Zhao Ji went on to describe his surprise attack on the goblin team in the dark while eating: "I approached the slow-moving goblin team directly and quietly, and saw several armed goblins attacking them. At the back of the team. But there were not many people, so I thought I could take advantage of it and launched a surprise attack." In the specific battle scene, Zhao Ji gestured with the wooden spoon and table knife in his hand, and the sentries were startled when they heard it Yes, I think it's too dangerous to make a mistake and be killed.

Zhao Ji also carefully described the tragic situation of the goblin killed by him with a smirk, and some timid sentries turned pale after hearing this.

When Zhao Ji was talking about his fight with Goblins, Old Domo walked into the security station. He saw Kiel sitting around the sentry at a glance, and when he got closer, he heard Kiel telling him The sentry recounted in detail the details of the fight with goblins a few days ago.

"Good boy, why don't you wait for my old man to come back to talk about such a wonderful battle? It's too heartless. I've made a fool of yourself to come back." Old Duomu hurried into the dining room, Sitting next to Keel, his buttocks arched again, and another sentry was squeezed into the wall next to the chair.

"It's not too late, it's not too late, the exciting part of the story hasn't started yet." Zhao Ji quickly finished the food on the wooden plate, and then took the beer mug on the table into his arms.

But he was still a step too late. Seeing so many glasses of beer in front of Keir, no matter whether anyone had drunk it, he directly picked up a glass of beer and drank it: "Hey, I went out to patrol around, but I'm thirsty .”

"Mine, mine, everyone gave me the beer." Zhao Ji hugged the beer mug in his arms even tighter.

Old Duomu stared at him: "Stop talking nonsense, tell me the details of what happened that day. Chestnut Tom, go to the tavern and ask for another beer, and charge it to me."

A young sentinel named Chestnut Tom ran away with a swipe. Seeing how he was running, he didn't want to miss the wonderful story that followed.

After that, Zhao Ji gave a detailed account of the series of battles that night. Later, after the chef brought up the fragrant chicken nuggets for Keir, he also sat aside and listened to Keir's thrilling battle. Everyone listened very carefully. They basically didn't have such a high-intensity combat experience in so many years. At this time, they heard that Kiel told the battle process without exaggeration and reservations, and they realized that the battle can be so tragic.

Especially the fight between monsters and beasts.

After Zhao Ji narrated his battle, he hiccupped and listened to the other sentinels discussing with each other. Old Domo patted Kiel's arm with a serious face and asked Kiel to come with him.

Zhao Ji thanked the chef who made the delicious meal, and followed Lao Duomu to his office in the public security station.

The room is on the second floor of the next door. Unlike ordinary houses that are low and narrow on the second floor, the second floor of Old Domo’s office room is very spacious. On the walls are the heads of hunting wolves, deer and goblins as symbols of force. show. Several rough wooden chairs were placed in the room, and Zhao Ji's armor box was placed beside the chairs.

As soon as Zhao Ji saw this, he walked over quickly, stroked the unopened wooden box carefully, and smiled beautifully. He was no longer afraid of being injured in battles after that. Those monsters and beasts did not have the ability to break through the armor. Zhao Jiji could kill without damage.

"Look at your beautiful appearance, isn't it armor? I don't seem to sleep well. I also have my own armor." Old Domo poured himself a wooden cup of well water and said while drinking.

"Then I haven't seen you wear it, uncle. Isn't the armor broken? And you can't bear to pay for repairs?" Zhao Ji teased the other party.

"No, it's just that I'm old and can't wear it anymore. The armor has already been passed on to my son. Hey, I hope he will be safe in the army." Old Domo sat down on a chair and motioned for Kiel to do the same. Sit down.

Zhao Ji didn't treasure the armor box anymore, so he sat on the wooden chair and listened to what Lao Duomu had to say.

Old Duo Mu pondered for a moment before asking: "Are all the things you said at the dining place true?"

Zhao Ji nodded: "I'm not joking, and I'm not bragging. Although I made some beer, it did happen at that time. What's wrong? Is there any problem?"

"From the way you act, you can tell that you are an honest person. As soon as you come to the village, you run out to fight the goblins to death. It's really desperate."

Zhao Ji scratched his nose: "Is this a compliment or a criticism?"

"Hahahaha, it's both a compliment and a criticism. Originally, these words should have been said to you by Nia Shepherd, but you don't seem to want to contact her, so I will say these words."

Zhao Ji didn't say anything, just looked at the strong old man opposite.

"You don't need to be so desperate, Keir. The village has been here for so many years. In the face of goblins, everyone actually has a way to resist. You look down on us old guys in the village, don't you? Don't deny it, actually We old guys have seen it. You should blame us old guys for delaying the safety of the village."

Zhao Ji did not express any opinion on this issue, in fact, he acquiesced.

"Goblins actually had this problem when we first built the village. When we were young, we and other young adults in the village once attacked the Goblin settlements. There were too many Goblins at that time. There are small strongholds of them all over the wasteland. Led by the knights in the village, we kept killing and killing. We killed all the way to the forest at the foot of the southern mountain range, until the goblins dared not come out. They didn’t know they were in the forest. Where are the settlements?" Old Duo Mu gestured to Zhao Ji and told Zhao Ji the stories that happened when they were young.

Zhao Ji raised his eyebrows, expressing his distrust with this facial expression.

Old Duo Mu snorted: "Don't believe it, it was like that at the time. You must think that the goblins who could fight back then were not good enough, so why are you forced to stay in the village now? The reason is actually the village lord. The elder brother of us old men, the lord of this village and the surrounding lands - Knights of Cocysus."

"What's wrong with this Korcesus knight?" Zhao Ji asked curiously.

"What else? He's old! And because he married late at the beginning, he didn't marry until middle age and had children. It's just that his heirs are not as capable as him, and they have been unable to take over his children these years. skill and power."

"So?" Zhao Ji said playfully.

"So, he has been teaching his children skills in Kendall City for the past few years, which has delayed the affairs of the village. It's not that the village can't organize people to eliminate those goblins wandering around, it's just that we can't do this, the lord can have the power to do so."

"Then why don't you go to your knight lord? Don't you want to delay the other party's training of heirs? Is this important?" Zhao Ji asked casually.

Old Domo was surprised when he heard Kiel's question: "Don't you know?"

"You know what? Knights are very important for the cultivation of offspring?"

"Of course, this is the most important thing. Knights can become lords because they have the combat power of more than a hundred people, so they can become lords of a land. This is the most basic requirement, and once the next generation of knights has no If another knight can be cultivated, he will naturally lose the ruling power of the territory." Seeing that Kiel really didn't know, Old Domo explained to him.

"It turns out that this piece of land and the village were developed by your group little by little, so you hope that future generations will continue to manage this place." Zhao Ji now understands the reason.

Old Domo nodded: "It's good if you understand. We have reclaimed this piece of land one by one. Naturally, only our people can continue to manage it. No one else can do it. We will not accept that Baron Kendall will The rest of the knights are sealed in the village of Doral Forest. We manage our land ourselves."

Zhao Ji nodded, and understood what Lao Duomu wanted to talk to him.

Then, Zhao Ji leaned down, propped his chin with his hands, and said to old Domu with a smile: "Then, is there anything you can do to help me clean up the goblins here?"

Old Duomu blinked: "Free housing, free food, and even rare magical healing. Are these not enough? Not to mention the bounties of Goblins, the bounties in the Kendall City Government Office are also my elder brother's previous bounties. It was entrusted to the government affairs office for two years. You can't get two bounties from us and the government affairs office for one goblin."

Zhao Ji heard Lao Duomu's answer, and thought about it in his heart, and felt that what the other party said was quite reasonable. It wasn't because the village was making trouble because of the goblins, but the other party just didn't want to disturb his own lord knight who was teaching his sons . The village is actually capable of solving its own troubles, but that may cause more costs and dangers.

And when he came, he gave the other party another choice. The village could be regarded as employing Zhao Ji at a small cost to eliminate the troublesome goblin problem.

Zhao Ji thought about it for a while, and Lao Duomu also drank water and waited for Kiel to think about it.

"I need a vehicle that can carry supplies, and some extra free supplies. I have my own way to deal with those monsters, but I need some physical supplies. Not many, but it's not something I should buy out of my own pocket , I need support from the village for this. Also, I need support from the blacksmith to repair weapons and armor, which should also be free. That’s about it.”

Old Duomu muttered a bit, and said, "What kind of transportation is it?"

Zhao Ji grinned: "A horse is the best."

"It's a good idea. The horses in the county are given priority to the imperial knights stationed there. There are no horses in any village to give you." Old Domo pointed to the direction of the north.

"Then a donkey, it can be barely used. I mainly use it to carry supplies and trophies. As you can see, it took me a lot of money to get the goblin's head back these two times. Strength, to be honest, if it weren't for me not being able to carry more things, I would be more efficient in hunting goblins." Zhao Ji shrugged and compromised, there is no way, he was in Kendall City It is rare to see horses, they are all donkeys.

"Haha, that's right, you carried a tree trunk back to the village twice, and some boys in the village wonder why you like carrying tree trunks so much. I will find someone else to solve this problem for you first. "

"I want it as soon as the injury is healed. If it doesn't work, you can prepare a trolley for me. This is the most important thing. Others?" Zhao Ji tentatively asked Lao Duomu about other conditions.

"What material support do you want? If it's too strange or too much, it won't work. All materials are money, and you can't use this reason to resell them for money." Old Domo stared at Kiel and urged.

"How can I. I like to build some simple camps near the place where I fight, enough for me to rest. Just give me some materials and materials for you to build watchtowers. I mainly need those, and there are also some materials for making traps." Zhao Ji gestured at the sentry tower.

"There is no problem with these. I can make decisions for you here. As for the blacksmith Bodell, I will ask other people in the village to talk about it. It should be no problem, but he has only made long swords and the like, and maintenance Okay. But I have never made armor, let alone repaired it. There is no way." Old Domo said helplessly, pointing to Kiel's wooden box containing the armor.

"This." Zhao Ji thought for a while: "Then borrow his place, and I will find a way to maintain the armor myself."

"Okay, that's it. I'll go to someone else to discuss, do you need someone to help you deliver the armor box to the hotel?" Old Duo Mu stood up from his chair, and Zhao Ji also stood up, grabbing the box After the two ends, he said: "No, no, I can do it myself. The weak period that Nia Shepherd said is actually nothing. After I got up, I felt full of strength again."

The two were talking as they came down the stairs: "That's because you are young, and the young man is strong. If someone else comes, you can see if he can get up the next day and talk about it."

Old Duo Mu went to find his old buddies, while Zhao Ji went to carry the armor box back to his room in the hotel, took the weapon and went to the blacksmith shop. The Bodell blacksmith was firing and forging something, and the sound of loud hammers beating materials resounded throughout the room.

Seeing the arrival of the most talked about young warrior in the village, Blacksmith Bodell stopped his work: "Hi, warrior Kiel. I saw those goblin heads yesterday, and it really belongs to you~www. readwn.com~ Don't try too hard, take it easy and don't worry."

"Haha, it's okay. I hunt monsters for a living. It's a piece of cake for me."

"Then I have to hurry up and get the prize I prepared for you. By the way, what's the matter? Or maintain the weapon? Indeed, after a big battle, it is indeed necessary to maintain the weapon. Show me." Blacksmith Bodell stretched out his hand towards Zhao Ji.

Zhao Ji handed the long sword in his hand to the blacksmith, and at the same time handed the dagger, spear, and several captured slings to the blacksmith: "This time there are a lot, and they are all things I often use. This sling I captured it from the leader of the goblin team, and it is very easy to use."

Blacksmith Bodell took all Zhao Ji's things, he pulled out his long sword, and looked at the edge of the long sword. Then he pulled out the dagger and shook his head. Then he picked up the spear and checked it, and was startled by the blood stains on the barrel of the spear.

"I'm sorry, the goblins and wild wolves were pierced through by throwing it with a long spear, and the wooden pole was covered with blood. I washed it once before, but it still couldn't be washed off." Zhao Ji said apologetically, scratching his hair.

The blacksmith waved his hand: "It's okay. It's a good thing to kill those monsters and defend the village."

In the end, Blacksmith Bodell picked up the four slings that Zhao Ji had seized successively, with a look of embarrassment on his face: "Although I have heard of this thing, I have never seen it. How can I repair it?"

Zhao Ji scratched his head and smiled: "Its structure is not complicated, or you can simply tinker with it."

"Then do as you said, I'll fix it briefly, don't blame me if it breaks."

"No wonder, no wonder, there are four of these, you just leave one for me. I use it very easily, so it is very convenient to hit a rabbit or something."
