15. Late News

The fat man's suggestion made Luo Er's heart flutter for a moment.

In the past two years, the village has been peaceful, with no monsters or gangsters appearing again. Everyone's life is in order, and there is nothing for him to worry about.

Several young people also learned a few moves from him. Although the level was not as good as that of Keli, it was definitely enough to temporarily protect the village.

My daughter also left the address there before she left, for convenience of correspondence.

If you go out by yourself, it will only last for two or three months at most, and there should be no problem.

But he hesitated for a long time, and finally shook his head.

Father must learn to let go and not keep him in his arms all the time.

Moreover, he has not left this remote country for decades. The farthest place he has been is the town of York at the foot of the mountain. If he went too far, he would really be a little scared of society.

"Forget it, let's talk about it later. Let's distribute the things to everyone first."

Roll stood up from the ground and helped organize things.

After thinking about it, he suddenly froze.

A packet of yeast powder, wrapped in a newspaper, with the word 'Newlyn Province' written on the headline.

Rolle quickly and carefully peeled off the newspaper, read the news on it, and almost jumped up on the spot.

The headlines read shocking news:

"Shocking! Newlyn Province was completely invaded by monsters, and many towns were attacked. The number of casualties will make men cry and women will be silent."

Rolle almost rushed down the mountain.

Fortunately, he still retained some sense and looked at the date in the newspaper.

More than a month ago...

After working on it for a long time, it was a piece of news that was long out of date.

He couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

This report was an out-and-out headline-grabber, and it even wrote in the follow-up content that although it was caught off guard at first and suffered heavy losses, the empire quickly reacted and quickly dispatched troops and extraordinary people.

, the current situation has stabilized.

Now more than a month has passed, enough time to calm down the crisis.

Luo Er laughed at himself, knowing that his information was too limited.

The sources of information for ordinary people in this world are newspapers, radio stations, and pubs.

Luo Er didn't have the habit of reading newspapers. He didn't have it before time travel. At that time, he always looked at his mobile phone. After time travel, he didn't have the habit of reading newspapers.

I live in a remote mountain village, York Town at the foot of the mountain, which is also the most remote 1024th line town in the empire. The newspaper is often ten and a half days late.

Not to mention radio stations and pubs...

"So, Keli and the others' social practice is to provide disaster relief and deal with the aftermath."

"Isn't this good? That child has been kind since he was a child and is suitable for doing this kind of thing."

Luo Er and Fatty discussed the big news that was more than a month late.

"But, do you think there will be monsters that slip through the net? Will they harm my daughter?"

Rohr asked again worriedly.

The fat man couldn't help but roll his eyes. A province is so big, how can a few fish that slipped through the net be focused on your daughter?

He said angrily:

"You can go if you want, why are you making these excuses?"

Luo Er smiled sheepishly and asked again:

"You're right... Then... I'll take a walk right now? Is everything okay here in the village?"

"What can happen? Who can care about this remote country?"

Luo Er felt that what the fat man said made sense, so he went home and packed his things.

He first found the scholarship left by his daughter from under the bed, and randomly took out a small stack from it.

But he thought about it and put half of it back, leaving only a few in his hand.

Newlyn is not that far away. It should take about half a month to travel there. If you save on food and food on the way, it won't cost much.

Although this money is a filial piety from his daughter, she will definitely have a lot of expenses when she settles down in the imperial capital to buy a house and so on, so I have to help her save the money.

After putting the money away close to his body, he picked out two more suits from Anya, packed them and put them away.

I am more accustomed to wearing coarse linen clothes, but I may meet other classmates of my daughter this time, so I have to prepare some decent clothes so as not to embarrass my daughter.

After packing a simple suitcase, he looked at the gorgeous and thick shield placed in the corner of the living room.

Along the way, you might encounter a green forest strongman, so it's always better to be more prepared.

So he took out a small stack of banknotes from under the bed, raised his shield, and ran to a neighbor's house.

Inside, a middle-aged man who looked about the same age as him was holding a small wooden hammer and tapping on a waterwheel blade.

No one knows this man's name, because he seems to be mute and has never spoken anyway. He always has a devilish smile on his face. In Rohr's opinion, he has a bit of the charm of a boxer pope.

I am also very autistic and unsociable. I have lived here for almost eight years and I don’t have a single friend.

Rolle kept calling him a 'strange villager'

"You didn't come to the bonfire dance last time, so you lost a share of the money."

"But I have always been fair and impartial, and I will never forget you."

Roll said, taking out a small stack of bills from his arms and placing them in front of him.

The strange villager raised his head and glanced at him coldly, as if urging:

"Say something quickly!"

"It's like this. My daughter gave me a shield for self-defense, but it didn't have a handle. She said she didn't know my hand shape. Can you help me install one?"

Luo Er asked with a smile.

Although this man is strange, he is actually quite good, very ingenious and possesses a powerful craft.

He helped build the waterwheel, windmill, and mill in the village; if something broke, he would always come to him for help.

Even Rolle's metal prosthetic leg was made by him.

So even though no one has much contact with him, his prestige in the village is not low at all, second only to Rohr.

According to the speculation of the most knowledgeable fat man in the village, this man should have been a powerful engineer or alchemist before, but then he got sick or suffered some kind of blow, and became like this pitifully, and ended up living in the village.

Surprisingly, the villagers did not reject Luo Er's request. They brought the shield in front of them, looked at it, and gently touched the rose pattern on the surface.

Then, he carried his shield and went to the back room, closing the door forcefully to prevent Rohr from entering.

There was a constant clanking sound in the back room, and Luo Er waited outside for a long time before he saw him coming out carrying a shield and a brand new metal prosthetic leg under his arm.

"Huh? The version has been updated again?"

Rohr asked curiously.

The weirdo ignored him, took a hammer wrench, and with two clicks, he removed Rolle's original prosthetic leg and replaced it with a new one.

Luo Er tried to move his left hand, carefully looked at the new arm with a slight silver light, nodded and complimented:

"Yes, it is more flexible and convenient than the previous version, and it is also more ergonomically designed."
