"What are you doing!" The little girl held her head and said with tears in her eyes, "Who tripped me!"
All the shadows were retracted into the staff in Xiao Fen's hand in an instant and merged into one. Among the people present, only Yun Na and the swordsman saw this scene, but none of them could say anything, and none of them dared to say it.
Of course Xiao Fen would not expose this little trick. He asked: "Sophia, what are you going to do?"
The little girl rubbed her forehead and replied: "Of course I want to teach that bad-hearted nobleman a lesson. Captain, you don't know, those refugees are very pitiful."
"Then what?"
"I have already thought about it, I want to take them to Silver Vesland," the little paladin princess replied proudly: "I believe in my companions, they are not like these greedy, selfish nobles here, Lord Sage
We will definitely take in these poor people."
"Why do I feel like you're taking a roundabout way and scolding us, you damn girl?" Cole thanked Miss Griffin over there, then sheathed her knife and walked over. The elf lady smiled and stretched out her slender hand.
Xiu's fingers went to twist her little face: "Also, don't add burdens to others casually, Silver Wisland's situation is much worse than you think-"
"It hurts, sister Ke'er, please let go..."
Quiet Xue stood up, pulled the little girl to her side, and protected her. Although she was wearing a blindfold, the female pastor still glanced at Cole - meaning not to bully the little girl.
The female ranger stuck out her tongue.
"Then what should we do? If the sage has nothing to do." Sophia held her little face and asked aggrievedly and angrily: "We can't just watch these refugees being driven away. They can no longer survive. Why are there so many people in the city?
Greedy and selfish people, how can they watch all this happen with peace of mind?"
The female priest gently trimmed the hair on the forehead of the little paladin princess, and replied: "Selfishness is the norm, Sophie, even if the people in the city and the refugees are replaced, the result will not change. What's important is
It’s not what others think, it’s what you do.”
Her words silenced the group of players, who looked at the little girl and her group thoughtfully.
"Sister Xue?" The little girl raised her head and looked at the peaceful Xue in a black shirt, and asked in confusion.
Yun Na looked at Xiao Fen at the right time, and the two conspirators saw each other's thoughts in each other's eyes. The female mage told Xiao Fen with a clear and rational look: "Have you seen an opportunity?" The black robe
An arc formed on the mage's pale face, as if a keenness on his heartstrings was reflected at the corner of his mouth, and he nodded imperceptibly.
He now has a city with a group of tireless guards, but it lacks farmers and craftsmen. The elemental furnace in Zigurat City comes from a wartime model, and every machine man produced is a professional soldier. But like
They themselves said that apart from fighting, these wooden brains can do nothing. As for the activation spell, it is even more unreliable, not to mention that most of them lack language and intelligence.
Although the mage helped these idiots tidy up the outline of the Kingdom Council before leaving, he was still worried about what tricks they would play.
Xiao Fen already seemed to regard Zigurat City as his private property.
He thought for a moment and had a plan in mind. He raised his head and asked: "Mr. Swordsman, your name is Ye...?"
Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then the leading swordsman responded: "Ye Gucheng, hello, Mr. Master." He walked over and found familiar oriental features on Xiao Fen's face, and seemed a little curious.
The swordsman knew that Sophia was a level 13 paladin - this was already the top level among players, so the girl's captain must be an extremely powerful person - his attitude was a little reserved: "Excuse me, what can I do?
"
Xiao Fen thought the name sounded familiar. It was probably a character in a certain novel, but he couldn't remember where he had read it. This thought flashed through his mind, and he already asked: "Ye, do you have anything?"
Is he a trustworthy candidate?"
"This..." The swordsman was stunned.
"Pa...!" Sophia almost blurted out, but immediately stopped her voice. Her eyes only showed a light of joy: "Captain, do you want to help?"
The black-robed mage nodded.
He owes Lady Tia an agreement, but he also has his own way of doing things. Xiao Fen will never agree with the whole thing just because he agrees with some parts. He will not agree with the paladin's way of doing things, which is why he admires Lady Tia.
Lord Ya is the first knight he has ever seen who knows how to compromise - this kind of compromise is not to bow to the darkness, but to achieve the ideal in his heart. This is why the gentle Lord can be so persistent.
Xiao Fen's worldview is a little different. The Master has always believed that a human society should be driven by interests, and that sacrifice and reward should form a whole. Only in this way can it be said to be long-lasting. But he does not appreciate being too naked and cold.
Interest only serves the continuity of an order. If you ignore the goal and only care about the means, you will degenerate into a cold-blooded and greedy person like a weak person.
The mage focuses on the whole. Only a logical system can bring warmth to more people. The pure and selfless dedication of the paladin is like a fleeting flash of light in the vast night. Although it is noble and dazzling, it disappears in a short time.
His warmth cannot change our dark world. Therefore, this is destined not to be his pursuit, nor Lady Tia’s pursuit.
"Very good!"
The little girl cheered for joy. In her opinion, there was nothing that could not be done if Xiao Fen intervened. The captain was omnipotent in the eyes of this paladin princess. No matter how hard he tried, he could only follow the tall existence that followed his back. Shining.
The people in the gold coins probably understood her mood, but the players brought by the swordsmen just looked at Xiao Fen curiously, secretly guessing what kind of powerful abilities this mysterious mage had.
Or should we say magic power. The opponent is an Earl of Rune Island, and behind him is the shining Rune Island Empire. Even if we bypass this lord, it is not an easy task to solve the food, clothing, housing and transportation problems of more than 500 refugees.
, some players have calculated that it costs an average of 20 gold coins per day to feed these people. Although the price of gold has dropped a bit now, it is still a lot of money - almost equal to the entire income of a seventh-level adventurer in a week (a real day).
Everyone looked at Xiao Fen to see how this mage would solve the problem.
At this time, Wrought Iron limped over and asked loudly: "What, was there a fight? Are you trying to teach that Earl of Lauchzi a lesson? The ax is on top, great -!" The dwarf picked up the ax and put it on his shoulder.
, a series of mutterings came from under the long beard: "Crooked mage, I bet you that there must be a million torrs of treasure in his treasure house! (A dwarven unit of calculation, approximately equal to 30,000 gold coins)"
"One million Thors! I swear to you, glorious Omodin!"
As Shudun'er said this, a pair of small eyes shone brightly under the low sentry helmet.
Xiao Fen was too lazy to pay attention to this guy who had revealed his true nature. He stared at his swollen face and asked, "Where did you get your injury?"
The dwarf glanced at Maairi Bailey and Vladis who were fighting together not far away, and said hesitantly: "Ah, I accidentally hit a tree just now."
Xiao Fen glanced over there and smiled: "What a big tree."
The dwarf laughed haha.
Manshi laughed loudly on the side. The big man shrugged his shoulders, and after a long while he vaguely revealed: "I was...beaten by Miss Black Dragon, Mr. Captain." He said, grabbing with one hand.
He was tearing apart a greasy lamb leg somewhere. The mage frowned and stared at these two guys. He really couldn't connect these two miserable teammates with their images in reality, especially the wild stone - especially
Horrible.
"Shut up, Stone!" the dwarf complained angrily: "That hateful female lizard, you are indiscriminate in your attacks!"
"You asked for this. Don't mess with those two little female dragons, or at least wait until you can beat them -"
"Of course I can beat him," the dwarf slapped his breastplate: "But when it comes to treasure, I prefer to deal with others on the books -"
Xiao Fen glared at him: "Then shut up, I'll beat you later."
After receiving a satisfactory answer, Shudun'er finally remained honest for a while. He stood aside calmly, but still looked like he was gearing up. Xiao Fen raised his head and asked again: "Ye, pick a trustworthy person to take these people to the cloth."
Rosalon.”
"Brosalon?" Ye Gucheng was stunned: "Isn't that south of here? What are you doing there?"
When the witch girl behind the tree heard the name, she turned back to look at them.
"It's a quiet little place away from the war, Mr. Swordsman." Yun Na smiled slightly and replied.
What Xiao Fen wants to do is to move these refugees elsewhere first - Brossalon is a small place, far away from the back of the Hand of Despair, and there are no famous leveling spots nearby. There are few players, so it can be hidden from others. It is commendable.
Yes, it is very close to Zigurat Underground City, less than a week away, and it will be easy to move there in the future.
Before that, he still has to do one thing, which is to find a way to get the food grown by the drow. It would be great if he could get a few of those black-skinned livestock. Are there any of these refugees?
He didn't know about the craftsmen, but in the context of Canaan's agricultural civilization, it was almost certain that each of them would be first-rate. He had already thought about how to deal with this line, passing through the underground areas throughout the Oras region.
The auction system will definitely get him what he wants. The mage has seen similar underground auctions in Dragon City before. He knows that there are similar places in Balgansi, but he doesn't know that after the war, these underworld businessmen are now
Have you shrunk up?
In this regard, he does have a candidate, the lovely Lord Roman. She must have her own way.
"Transfer?" The swordsman was stunned for a moment.
"What! Isn't that a compromise with that hateful Earl?" The little girl was a little disappointed, and the players nodded in agreement with her.
Xiao Fen glared at her: "Otherwise, do you still want to lead them to resist the rule of Rune Island?"
The little girl was choked half to death, her mouth pursed, looking aggrieved.
"But what about the food? No one is willing to sell it to us, Master Mage?" The swordsman thought about it seriously. He probably agreed with Xiao Fen's proposal.
"There will always be people selling, there is supply and demand, it's nothing more than this, it's just that the price you offered is not high enough." A sneer appeared on the lips of the black-robed mage: "Do as I say, first find someone to spread the word in the castle
We will take these refugees away at once, and then offer a high price to buy food for the refugees for a month. Of course, don't forget to scold the count - this is your best chance. Don't worry, he won't fight with you this time.
Careful."
As he spoke, he winked at the other person.
The swordsman understood. He couldn't help but smile, but said with some worry: "If you offer such a high price, we may not have enough money."
"It doesn't matter, the more is mine, understand?" Xiao Fen smiled slightly and replied.
"Really!" Ye Gucheng was surprised. This is not a small amount of money. They can only collect less than two hundred gold coins at most. If the price is increased by half, the gap will still be this amount.
Several times as many times. He couldn't help but look at Xiao Fen suspiciously, but what he saw was a determined look. "Thank you, Master Mage!" He then felt relieved: a high-level player must cherish his own.
Feather Wings will not make promises casually.
However, this swordsman player may not understand that the number he is struggling with is just a drop in the bucket in the eyes of this black-robed mage. In fact, in the entire Oras, the wealth that can be compared with the shining gold coins
Those who can compete with it are probably only one or two top merchant players. Or only super guilds like Hand of Despair have a chance.
However, Xiao Fen grabbed him and whispered: "You'd better let the most trustworthy person handle this matter, and let the other ten people who are willing to go with him go with him. The best among these ten people
There should be three people who have nothing to do with this person, can you do it?"
The swordsman was stunned for a moment before he realized what the mage meant. He was a little unhappy for a moment, but he still nodded.
"Ye, this is related to the life and death of hundreds of people, do you understand?" Xiao Fen looked at him and said word by word.
The expression on Ye Gucheng's face softened and he nodded seriously.
The mage smiled slightly. In fact, he still trusted these players. After all, he persisted for so long in such a difficult situation and almost spent all his savings. Just to save a group of strangers - even just one person.
For a group of NPCs in the virtual world, this kind of heart can be called a test of will, pure and flawless.
He patted the other party's shoulder, rethought his plan and made sure there were no mistakes before raising his head. What he saw was Keer's questioning eyes and Xue's face turned to him with a blindfold on.
Among the people present, only Yun Na had a clear face. She seemed to be smiling slightly, but in fact she completely understood what he was thinking——
"Didn't you say there was going to be a fight, treacherous mage?" Wrought Iron asked impatiently.
The swordsman also stopped and listened carefully to what the black-robed mage had to say next.
Xiao Fen looked around, and every eye was focused on him. But he hesitated. He did have a supplementary plan. In his plan, the longer the situation in Olas remained stable, the more shining gold coins he would have.
More time to prepare, theoretically speaking, the longer the confrontation between Dragon City and the Hand of Despair, the more beneficial it will be for them.
But with the support of the Rune Island Empire, the Hand of Despair now clearly has the upper hand. If nothing goes wrong, the coalition will launch its first major offensive after the heavy rain season. If Dragon City cannot block it in two directions at the same time,
If the Lady of Blood Moon defeats the thorn knights and advances with great enthusiasm, they will soon lose the final strategic depth. Once the Dragon City Plain is lost, the final defeat of the Dragon City forces in this war will only be a matter of time.
But this is the case. It seems that the Dragon City Lords are now unable to prevent the Hand of Despair from gaining further victory - but they still have one chance, which is to retreat to the front line of the Netherland Forest, using the Shield of Truth, Lanlos, Stone Sword City, and Balgans as the
Relying on, with the help of the dwarves in the Cloud Mountains, the elves and the power of Silver Vislan continue to fight - although the chances are slim, it is better than the inevitable death.
But the commander of the Hand of Despair obviously saw this, so he took the initiative to cut off the connection between the hilly area and the plain area. Originally, Xiao Fen saw this key point on the battlefield earlier, but he was not the Southern Alliance after all.
The high-level officials could only let the other party plan the plan step by step from the inside, thus trapping the entire Dragon City forces in it.
The mage didn't mind admitting the failure of this round of confrontation, but it was because the enemy was in the dark and we were in the dark; but now it was just the opposite, the enemy was in the dark and we were in the dark. So he suddenly had his own ideas, whether it was for revenge or not,
No matter how you look at the overall situation, of course you have to put a few obstacles in the opponent's game, maybe you can save a little bit of the situation.
To put it simply, Xiao Fen wanted to let Thorn Castle change hands again. This sounded ridiculous, but the mage thought it was not impossible; especially thinking of this, he firmed up his idea and waved for others to come over.
All eyes followed him.
"Sophia, what did you say at the beginning?" The mage smiled coldly, as if he had already thought of someone's misfortune.
"Ah? Well..." The little paladin princess obviously didn't expect why the topic would suddenly shift to herself: "Going to help those refugees?"
Xiao Fen shook his head.
"Earlier."
The little girl had a troubled expression on her face.
"Ah, I thought of it!" She suddenly jumped up and shouted: "I'm going to teach that hateful, greedy and selfish nobleman a lesson!"
"Well said, do you want me to help you, little girl?" The black-robed mage's pale face drew an arc, and the malice in his heart suddenly surfaced, making the people around him shiver.
"Team, Captain?"
Not just the little girl, everyone looked in disbelief.
The female mage smiled slightly.
