——Who would have thought that this group of warriors who managed to scare away a team of monsters just by showing their faces would let their opponents go in the blink of an eye just because of that.

Caesar recalled the weapons in the hands of the monsters he saw not long ago, and he couldn't think of any of them that could be counted in the category of magical weapons, which attracted everyone to fight, so that even those that could be counted as defenseless All the monsters can be let go at will.

...Could it be that I misunderstood it?

That's right, after all, who would pass up the opportunity to kill monsters to pick up some junk instead, it must be some priceless treasure.

As he thought about it, his eyes swept over those refugees who were happily walking back with long swords and armor.

As an aristocrat, appreciation is also an extremely important course.Caesar has been studying this course since he was a child, from the taste of wine to the quality of antique gems, but today, no matter how he looks at it with his eyes that have seen many gems and antiques, those things are The ordinary iron sword armor has no possibility of becoming a treasure.

——That is indeed a pile of tattered weapons.

Caesar couldn't understand their thoughts at all. For a moment, he wanted to grab their collars and ask them loudly why they let those hateful monsters go for these things.

However, those refugees were completely unaware of his entanglement. After happily picking up the weapon and letting the monster escape, they ran up to him and asked with a smile, "Hello, do you need help?"

"Of course, the light is above, thank you for your kindness." Years of aristocratic education made Caesar try his best to maintain his reserved appearance, allowing him to ask in such a peaceful tone, "But before that, my I have always had a small doubt in my heart, may I ask if you can give me an answer."

"Just now, why did you let those monsters go and pick up these...weapons instead?" If he didn't remember the common sense that it is not good to say bad things in front of others, he would almost blurt out the word "tacky".

The refugee on the opposite side was stunned: "Ah, all the equipment that should be dropped on them has been dropped, why do I have to turn around and chase those monsters that have nothing on them?"

For the current players, they fight monsters now to make money and go to the full server auction.Now that the monsters have taken off everything they need to take off, and the thin underclothes left can't hide much, so there is obviously no need for such mobs to continue chasing them.

A player next to him heard Caesar's question, and couldn't help but muttered: "NPCs won't refresh after death, maybe these mobs won't reappear after they die. This kind of initiative to drop equipment before the start of the fight Little monster, it just saved us the effort of running away from the corpse, so it's a good thing to beat him to death like this."

"Yes, yes, this kind of mob who actively sends equipment is so smart, so kind, and has the real characteristics of the game. It would be great to save it for another wave next time." Another player in the same room couldn't help but echoed, Chatted directly in front of the NPC when receiving the task.

In this game without a team channel, even if you were able to chat happily in front of the NPC who changed jobs back then, how can you still worry about such a strange NPC from outside? !

Caesar couldn't understand what the two players behind him said, but he could still understand what the player who was responsible for accepting the mission and talking to him in standard sentences said.

Why are you chasing those monsters?

——Of course it is for the glory of the empire!For future victories of course!Could it be just for such a little rags? !

... Well, he forgot, these refugees in front of him are exactly this kind of people.

Seeing that Caesar's expression changed again and again, the guard next to him hurriedly stepped forward and stopped Caesar.

Years of experience traveling north and south made him have a better acceptance than these nobles. Although he didn't understand why these refugees insisted on doing this, facing these lifesavers who rescued them from the hands of monsters, some He can choose to ignore small problems.

The guard took out a small bag of silver coins from his pocket, and handed it over with a smile: "Thank you for your help, this is our kindness."

"As you can see, everyone in our caravan is injured and needs to rest. Can you take us to the nearest safe town?"

The player took a look at it, opened it and immediately became excited.

"Damn it, silver coins! This task came well, less work and more money, maybe if we receive a few more tasks from these NPCs, we will be able to catch up with others and be eligible to participate in the auction."

"Really, this group of NPCs are really rich. Fortunately, they didn't work overtime today and went online early."

While talking, they looked back at Caesar and his group in surprise, trying to get more money out of the pockets of these NPCs.

And this staring full of hope for the future was successfully interpreted by Caesar as envy, which made Caesar who looked down on them even more disdainful, and directly snorted coldly.Seeing this, the guards next to him couldn't help becoming nervous. After all, all of them were injured and they were still in the wilderness. Maybe those refugees would have some wrong thoughts.

But those players obviously didn't take it seriously. They have encountered even worse behavior than this "randomly refresh thief NPC when offline", and they still care about the cold snort of a mere NPC.

The bad attitude of the NPC can only be said to be that the attitude of planning to make money is not sincere.Combined with the fact that this game is still free and open, this trivial matter can be regarded as not seeing it.

For the sake of the small bag of silver coins, the player tried his best to help all the injured NPCs. Seeing that someone was unconscious, he even made a simple stretcher.

With this caravan, they went to Corunna, which they were most familiar with.

……

Since Mr. Sai, the god of science, gave a revelation, kindly expressing that all townspeople who believe in other gods can use scientific electric lights, scientific electric light installations have become popular in this border town.

Players brought NPCs into the city, and saw from a distance that there are now scientific lighting devices installed on the city gate——

Electric lights are fixed on the city gate, so that you can see the movement near the city gate at night, and you can clearly understand the movements of the monsters.The wire connected to the power supply was dragged through the door panel to the back of the city gate. It is believed that the other end will be connected to the volt battery as long as it is night.

"Even the gates of the city have started to install electric lights. I'm afraid the calcium oxide boss will have to make a lot of money." A player looked at the two electric lights and couldn't help showing an envious expression, "Sure enough, knowledge changes destiny. There is a house of gold in the book. It’s all because I didn’t study hard before, but now I don’t know anything except how to use these things.”

Another player had an idea: "In fact, we can try to find other suitable blueprints on the Internet. Although we don't understand the principle, we have almighty netizens and Baidu. Maybe in the future, we will all have the opportunity to I made a phone call in the game."

"That's too late, the auction of all clothes is about to start, why don't we save money and buy one together, you wear it today, I wear it tomorrow, and he wears it the day after tomorrow..." Someone thought of this and couldn't hold back "Tsk "He said, "Forget it, it's really sad to think about it."

While queuing up, they sighed at the electric lights for a while, and nodded to the guards who had treated them much better after the city battle. The players then led Caesar and his party to prepare to enter Corunna.

On the contrary, Caesar stared blankly at the electric lights on the city wall, somewhat wondering why there was such an abrupt and useless design on the city gate.

Listening to what those refugees said just now, such a redundant design actually made the designer a lot of money? !

Could it be that this is Mayor Corunna's aesthetics... Caesar couldn't help but closed his eyes forcefully, showing an expression that he couldn't bear to look directly at.

……

Being sent by those refugees all the way to a hotel with good conditions in the town, Caesar watched the owner of the hotel focus on talking to the refugees, and the other party's words were vaguely respectful that they didn't have when facing them.

So, in the eyes of the owner of this inn, he is a luxuriously dressed nobleman, but he is not as good as a group of refugees who are picking up rags outside?

how can that be!

Either these refugees are rich and powerful, or the owner of this inn, like him, was once deceived by the performance of these refugees scaring away the monsters, and they really thought they were a group of brave men.

... Tsk, I don't know how many people this group of people have deceived by this trick.

Maybe that's how they joined hands with monsters. The former relied on this to make everyone think they were brave, while the latter ran back to the camp empty-handed, showing that he has been fighting hard against human braves today, even with weapons. Be looted.

Caesar thought this slightly darkly. After all, from the beginning to the end, these refugees did not show any strength comparable to "just showing their faces to drive away monsters".

With a cold face, he silently forced away the group of refugees who turned their heads and asked him if there was anything else in need of help, and watched the shopkeeper send away those liars who spoke vulgar dialects and seemed to be unable to speak the language fluently. Out of kindness, he reminded : "Have you ever thought that maybe you were all deceived by those liars?"

"Who are you calling a liar?!" He obviously didn't understand, after hearing the adjective "liar", the shopkeeper's expression suddenly changed because he was too angry.

"Of course it's the group of refugees who have been scammed everywhere in the name of the brave and have not spoken clearly." Caesar walked up the stairs, but he was grabbed by the shopkeeper behind him after only a few steps.

"Cheating and abducting?! You don't know anything, what qualifications do you have to judge them. In the past war, they directly brought a tragic victory with the death of hundreds of people. At the cost of their lives, everyone in their family They have won our respect. Those words that are common in their hometown have also become a voice that can change the color of all enemies. And at that time, where were you?" The shopkeeper sneered twice, mockingly said, "From Did Corunna run away, or did he look at Corunna who was caught in the flames of war, thinking that he would never go there in his life?"

"Although they are not good at the common language, this is not the reason why you can laugh at those warriors. You don't even know how many people in this entire Cologne are looking forward to themselves and their children, to have Words that frighten enemies away like them grow into their image."

These outsiders don't know, but can locals like shopkeepers not know how popular it is to learn the dialect of those brave people in the whole of Cologne recently.Even he himself hopes to learn the dialects of those brave men to defend himself against monsters in the future.

It's just a pity that the language of those brave men is too complicated, and the speed of speech is too fast, so they really can't understand it just by learning from cats and tigers.

... I don't know how Gu Ye would feel if he heard this comment. He obviously used the most standard imperial common language as a template for translation. Unfortunately, in the eyes of these townspeople, those players kept talking. Fluency seems to be enough.

The store manager said angrily: "Those humble and tolerant brave men may not take you seriously, but as a Corunna who has received the favor of that 'brave family', I refuse to accept a person who insulted our Corunna hero to stay !"

"You guys pack up your things right now and get out of my shop!"

Not knowing whether it was anger or embarrassment, Caesar's face flushed red after being accused like this for the first time.

...Until this moment, he finally understood a little bit why those monsters reacted in that way when the incomprehensible strange dialect rang in the woods.

"But, when faced with the monsters who ran away empty-handed, they clearly let them go just to pick up those iron swords and armor." Caesar's voice was full of confusion, and what he said was not so much an excuse , it is better to say that it is a question.

The opposite shopkeeper's tugging action froze, as if thinking of some tragic past, tears welled up in his eyes, as if he would shed tears in the next second.

"You don't know anything!" Rather than accusations, his tone at this time seemed to be venting his emotions, "Listen to those soldiers who were lucky enough to survive the battlefield, there were many brave men who didn't have the right weapons armor, rushed out of the woods fearlessly empty-handed, just picked up a random sword on the ground and rushed up. Perhaps until now, their clansmen are also regretting that they were not even fully prepared with weapons at that time. "

"...Damn it, even if it's the logistics, I wasn't there at the time, so I prepared armor for them."

Everyone present was moved.

After listening to these words, all the anomalies seemed to have an answer.

At this moment, when Caesar once again recalled the gestures of those warriors laughing and cursing in front of the monsters, he could only feel the fearlessness shining in the depths of their souls.He remembered their scrambling to pick up fallen weapons, but also the tattered underclothes they had hidden under their armor.

... Except for the complete weapons on their bodies, everything else on their bodies looked dilapidated.

He wanted to find those warriors who had saved his life once again, and sincerely apologize to them for his unreasonableness.He even wanted to tailor a set of refined armor for them, telling them "you don't need to fight like you used to in the future."

It's just that there are people coming and going outside, and those brave men who sent them here have already merged into the crowd and disappeared.

At the same time, the players who took the small bag of silver coins and found a small corner where no one was excited to start distributing money had no idea what they missed at this moment.

……

Caesar finally changed to a new hotel for accommodation.

For most of the day after that, he thought about finding those brave men again and apologizing to them.However, he ended up with nothing, except after watching almost the entire magic show on the streets of Corunna.

Seeing that the sky was getting dark, Caesar hurried back to the hotel. After all, if he was asked to find a strange hotel in such an unfamiliar place at night, it would be very difficult no matter how he thought about it.

Caesar returned to his room, because he was worried that he might knock over the whole lamp when he was looking for the kerosene lamp in the dark. Before it was completely dark, he planned to take the kerosene lamp and put it at hand.

It's just different from usual, after roughly scanning the furnishings of the room, he still couldn't find the kerosene lamp that usually always appears in the most conspicuous position.

——Is it because I forgot?

Caesar couldn't help complaining a few words in his heart, feeling that the service attitude of this hotel is really bad.Just as he was about to go down and find the owner of the hotel to explain the situation, there was a knock on the door of the room.

Thinking about how much he had eaten for dinner, he should have come to give him a kerosene lamp.

...But it's just such a kerosene lamp. As for the baby, if he wants to feel dark and wants to light the lamp early.

Caesar walked over to open the door, and was about to have a serious talk with the other party about these things, but the other party smiled at him, then bent down and brought in two large and small glass jars.

The older one, Caesar, didn't know him. He only looked at half of the pot of water dangling in it and wondered if it was a water storage tank that made him thirsty in the middle of the night, but when he looked at the two iron pieces inside the pipe, he thought it might be something Inexplicable decorations.But the smaller one looked familiar, it was exactly the replica he saw at the gate of the city today.

...It seems that not only the mayor, but the aesthetics of the entire Corunna are a bit worrying. He doesn't know what is so good about this thing.

Aesthetics itself is a relatively personal thing. Although I can’t understand why this thing looks attractive, Caesar still has the same attitude as when he entered the city in the morning and saw this thing at the gate of the city. He only complained a few words in his heart. I didn't say that I wanted to criticize face to face.

Caesar maintained his politeness: "Sir, when will my kerosene lamp be delivered?"

"Kerosene lamps? Foreigners like you really don't know. Now in Corunna, except for those who haven't waited for scientific electric lights, not many people know how to use kerosene lamps anymore." The shopkeeper pointed to the electric lights on the ground. , said with some pride, "And the scientific electric lamp, I have already sent it to you."

"Because we are lucky to rank high in the Brook Alchemy Workshop, it is no exaggeration to say that our hotel is the first place in Corunna where all guests can use scientific electric lights."

"Scientific light?" Caesar looked at the two glass jars on the ground, and couldn't figure out how such a thing could be called a "light" and how it should light up afterwards.

"Yes, the scientific electric light. Mr. Sai, the god of science, couldn't bear to see the world struggling in the dark, so he sent believers to bring this scientific electric light to the world, and gave all pagans the right to use it. He said, science Below, everyone is equal." The shopkeeper smiled, and as his words fell, the wires at the two poles of the battery were connected to the lamp with wooden clips, and the scientific lamp was lit up like this.

Caesar looked at the scientific electric lights that suddenly lit up in front of him, and couldn't help feeling the god's broad-mindedness because of this miracle: "That is really a philanthropic and great god."

Recalling his thoughts when passing the city gate, Caesar couldn't help but feel lucky: Fortunately, he didn't lose his aristocratic cultivation from elementary school to adulthood. Otherwise, if he pointed at the scientific light at the city gate and said that everyone in Corunna was not aesthetically pleasing, then If you lose face, you will lose your hair.

……

After setting up the scientific lamps, informing them how to turn off the lights, and emphasizing that the wires should not be touched with hands, the owner quickly walked out of the room to leave room for the guests to rest.

It stands to reason that Caesar should have been so tired that he fell asleep right now after going through that life-threatening and terrifying battle.But he stared at the glowing scientific lights in front of him, and after a long time he still didn't feel sleepy, fearing that everything he saw in Corunna would turn into a dream.

Corunna - this place that he had regarded as a run-down town before, did not know how many surprises it gave him on this day.

Caesar was lying on the bed, the wind blew up the curtains and lifted a corner of the curtains.Through that gap, he saw the city outside the window, which was not as bright as night.

Caesar was stunned, and got out of bed and opened the curtains. Outside the window, unlike the cities that would fall into silence at night in the past, Corunna was brightly lit at this time.

——That is the shocking scene created by the light from the scientific lamps shining through the window after they are connected together.

Light dispels darkness, and as long as these people want to, this city can even have no night.

This is a city that never sleeps.

Caesar stood at the window, and after a long time passed, he regained his consciousness from this shocking scene.

...Since the great God of Science couldn't bear the world to be plunged into darkness, and gave all pagans the qualification to use scientific electric lights, does this mean that he is also qualified to take this scientific electric light out of Corunna and bring it back to the king? All?
