Giant insect world raises flying chickens

Chapter 288 Lump
Lump Eugene?

After Huck heard this impressive name, he felt very weird.

The Flame City had been destroyed long ago. Later, Joan brought the singer group back there, and randomly allocated a group of new people to populate the border city.

It seems that in the history of Flame City, this kind of thing often happens.

Huck's understanding of Flame City in the early years is that Flame City has experienced many crises, and then survived each time.

Some things can't be thought too much, and Huck doesn't care so much about the previous things.

The main reason for feeling weird is that Lump came to Dexia from Nordesus.

It's not surprising if you think about it carefully, after all, there are only these two human kingdoms, and Dexia and Nordesus have been attracted to each other since a long time ago.

The low-level people are willing to go to Nordesus to find a way out, while the middle and high-level nobles are used to the "old" life here in Dexia.

Luang Pu still used the same name as before, and he didn't even change his surname?

Huck suddenly felt that he was the only one who changed his name, and everyone else lived frankly.

Luang Pu did not make any mistakes at all, nor was he hunted down. It is normal for people to start a family and start a business in a new place after their home was destroyed by the Zerg, right?

"How old is your husband?"

Huck was fine when he was idle, so he took the initiative to say, "Sit down and chat, I have good fruit wine here."

Under Mary's envious and excited gaze, Huck touched the gemstone ring on his middle finger.

There are four rings on his hand, all on the fingers of his left hand, only the thumb is free.

The right hand should hold the sword, so it is not suitable to wear too many rings.

The four gorgeous rings are red, black, yellow, and blue, corresponding to the four attributes of flame, space, lightning, and ice crystal.

On the picnic spread on the ground, a silver wine jug soon appeared.

Huck took out two more glasses and poured himself a glass of wine.

He took a sip, put down the cup and said, "I passed by an elf village when I came out, so I bought it by the way."

Mary looked at the food on the ground. The man obviously had enough food and wine, but he still bought this small amount of food from them.

"Do you know Lump, my lord?" Mary was more concerned about this.

Huck picked up a roast chicken from the ground, and after breaking off the leg of the roast chicken, he said casually, "I know him, but he doesn't know me, and he doesn't know me. Is he okay?"

Huck put the broiled chicken fit for a traveler to his mouth and took a bite.

The taste is not good, a little too salty, and there is a clear smell of wood fire.

Mary said happily: "He is very good and treats me very well, but he is getting old and doesn't like to go out. I am too bored at home, so I will go to Mithril City with the caravan to attend the ball."

Huck continued to eat the unpalatable chicken legs. Like Lily, he was not a picky eater.

"That's it." Huck poured himself another small glass of fruit wine, and poured half a glass for the other side by the way, "Drink it."

"Thank you!" Mary felt a sense of pride, and Huck's little act of pouring her wine could be remembered by her for many, many years.

Huck continued to eat and drink, while Mary took a sip of the sweet fruit wine, holding the glass and looking at Huck with a reddish face.

Huck asked naturally: "Is this caravan related to Lump? Or your grandfather's caravan?"

Mary explained: "It's not my grandfather's. My grandfather is just the leader of the caravan here. In fact, this caravan is jointly managed by several nobles and mercenary groups. Lump is also one of the supporters."

Huck nodded, "Those who are capable can do well wherever they go. It seems that Lump has also invested some business and favors here."

Mary happily agreed, "Yes, Lump is a very wise man, and the leaders of several nearby mercenary regiments have a good relationship with him."

Huck could feel that Mary was just the daughter of a minor nobleman.

"How long have you been married to Lump?" Huck was a little curious about Lump's life.

It's okay anyway, just want to know.

Mary smiled and said, "I've been married for five or six years. He treats me very well and takes care of me in every way."

Huck recalled that when he was in Flame City, Lump's son was in his 30s, but now he is probably in his 70s or [-]s?
"I feel the breath of other men from you." Huck thought for a while, "You should have a long-term relationship with a man in his 20s, about five or six years, right?"

Mary's face was a little stiff, and then she said nervously: "Yes... I am indeed like this. My father once told me that I can't hide anything in front of people like Lump, and I think the same is true for you. .”

Huck felt indifferent, "It's okay, I think Lump also knows about this, he really likes you, you can continue to play like this."

"To Lump, that man is just a toy to entertain you. If you like it, he will keep it."

Huck has the cognition of Nodesas, and he is very clear about Lump's thoughts.

"Don't be afraid. Lump's health should not be as good as before, right? So he knew that he couldn't accompany you, so he found a substitute. As long as you, as a wife, occasionally lie on the same bed with him, he will take care of other things." Will not interfere."

Mary felt relieved, but with mixed emotions.

"His long hair is all gray, and he loses a lot of hair every day. Now, except for some hair on the back of his head, most of his hair has fallen out."

"The teeth are not very good. I can't eat meat with bones like I did a few years ago, and I don't eat nuts and the like."

"He was a strong old man when he first got married, and now... a thin old man who sits in a chair most of the time."

"I feel like he won't live long..."

Huck smiled, "It doesn't matter, you can continue to sing and dance, continue to go to balls and dance with men, continue to talk and laugh in the social places of nobles and businessmen, that's all. He doesn't need sympathy, and he doesn't need you to feel guilty. "

Huck looked at Mary who had a bad expression, "Maybe I'm troublesome, don't feel embarrassed, he is a colder and stronger person, he can only accommodate or tolerate you, and won't let you sympathize with him, Just wait and go to the dance."

Mary hesitated, "Is it really okay for me to do this?"

"Okay, if you feel bad, don't look for a man, go to the city to buy some beautiful clothes and cosmetics, at least before he dies, use his money to dress yourself well, let him feel that his money is not a pile of dust .”

Huck offered advice to Mary, stood up and said with a smile, "It's time for me to go on my way, as long as you continue to be beautiful in his last life."

"Don't talk about me. If this matter gets out, just say that I had a good chat with you, mainly talking about meaningless ambiguous topics."

There are a lot of people in Nordesse, Huck knows two, one is the general who has never met, and the other is Lump who has met but is not very familiar.

Mary will definitely go to Mithril City, because the caravan will not turn back directly for her.

In the bustling city, it has nothing to do with Huck whether she is indulging in the luxurious circle of aristocrats, or quietly waiting for the caravan trade route back.

Huck also didn't go to see Lump. Lump was not the kind of character who needed sympathy from others, and he didn't want his dying appearance to be seen by people he knew.
