through the dark road

Chapter 228

"Do you know why Ned specializes in ice?"

Alvin, who was picked up by Ned for several childhood embarrassments, is ready to fight back.

"Is this also related to childhood?" Mo Bei asked with interest.

"You guys don't know that when he was a child, he secretly hid under the bed and smoked his father's pipe. Not only did he smoke himself out, but he also lit the bed. If he hadn't discovered it in time, he would probably have known him."

"I'll go... I really know how to choose a place... So he became afraid of fire? Can he only specialize in ice?" Mo Bei was speechless, this is really a bit thrilling.

"No, because our team needs the control of ice mages."

"... You haven't been beaten enough when you were a child..." Mo Bei gave him an annoyed look.

"Haha, I'm afraid of the fire. It's just that I still feel sick when I smell the dry smoke. The shredded tobacco is strong. I still remember that I started to feel confused after taking a few puffs, and I fainted when I wrapped it in the quilt. past."

Ned laughed, and seemed to find nothing embarrassing in the matter.Instead, he continued to reveal a lot of embarrassing things about Alvin, embarrassing the unlucky boy to the point of shame.

No way, this guy's life is written in two-handed script, full of drama.

Several people were chatting happily, but they heard a light knock on the courtyard door.

"Huh? Who will come at this time... Could it be that the neighbors have come to complain?" Mo Bei wondered, thinking that they were too noisy just now, which caused dissatisfaction among nearby residents.

But when he opened the courtyard door, he was really taken aback.

"Your Majesty... why are you here?"

Standing outside the door turned out to be the king of Lugain, Jehein, with Karen, the commander of the palace guards, and four palace guards beside him.

Jerhyne was dressed in fine linen casual clothes, a generation of kings, but at this moment he looked quite a bit scholarly.But Karen and the others put on tough clothes, standing aside like an iron tower.

"Good evening, didn't I disturb your rest?" Jerhyne nodded and smiled.

"Where is it, please come in!" Mo Bei turned sideways and welcomed Jerhein into the yard.

He didn't show an overly humble attitude. Free adventurers only need to show enough respect to these lords.

Jerhein walked into the courtyard, and by the moonlight, he saw that the originally elegant courtyard had changed beyond recognition. Deep and shallow sword marks and other traces of battles could be seen everywhere on the inside of the courtyard wall.If it weren't for the fact that the courtyard wall is nearly two feet thick and the materials are strong, it might have already been crumbling.

Seeing this scene, he nodded and said:
"Sure enough, it's not an ordinary job changer. It's really rare to be so diligent."

Mo Beigan scratched his head with a smile, and then heard Jerhein ask:

"Is it satisfactory to live here? Do you need me to find someone to repair this yard?"

"No, no, I plan to get something to fill those gaps when I have time. This place is very good! Thank you, Your Majesty!"

"It should, huh? Are you eating? It smells so good!" Jerhyne said, waving to the four people who were a little dumbfounded, looking very accommodating.

Mo Bei glanced into the living room, and couldn't help sweating. He found that Perona was still eating, as if nothing was on his mind, but the food was something he couldn't bear.

"If Your Majesty doesn't mind, I'll get you some tableware?"

"Hehe, I just ate it too. Next time, I came here today to trouble you with something. This matter may be dangerous. So you don't have to force it."

"Your Majesty, please speak."

"You should also be able to guess that Lu Gaoyin's palace has had some problems since half a year ago..."

Mo Bei's heart moved when he heard the words, what should come is still coming, he didn't expect thousands of imperial guards to be unable to deal with the monsters in the palace.

"It can no longer be called the imperial palace, but a devil's lair. One night in February, countless monsters from hell sprang out of the dungeon of the imperial palace without warning, occupying the dungeon in an instant, and broke through the blockade of the dungeon. They poured into the inner courtyard of the palace, and the people inside... all died..."

"Although the palace guards have taken back the inner courtyard, the dungeon is still filled with countless monsters, and the terrain there is too narrow. The personal strength of the guards is limited, so they can't penetrate into the depths to see where the monsters come from. of."

"I have never dared to announce this news. Lu Gaoyin City is not monolithic. The returnees and Lu Gaoyin's transferees did not get along very well. I dare not take risks. I am afraid that this news will cause uncontrollable turmoil. It will be used by the wizarding society."

"Fortunately, the situation is constantly developing towards what I've been looking forward to for many years. Moreover, you actually wiped out the stronghold of the wizarding society."

"So the only thing that is still threatening Lu Gaoyin is probably the dungeon under my ass." Jerhyne gave a wry smile, and continued:

"Although you have just arrived in Lu Gaoyin, your strength makes me feel unbelievable. That's why I want to invite you into the dungeon to find out the source of the monster."

"Slaying hell monsters is my duty!"

Mo Bei waited anxiously for Jerhein to finish speaking.The others were still in shock, so he agreed to the matter without hesitation.

Seeing that he agreed so simply, Jehyne straightened his face, raised his right hand to his heart, and saluted Mo Bei solemnly.

"Your Majesty, this is..."

"On behalf of.. my family.. thank you!"

Mo Bei and the others were all moved when they heard the words. Jerhyin's family members, that is, those who used to live in the inner courtyard of the palace, according to what he just said, have all died.

In front of him is a king who has lost all his relatives, but is still worrying about Lu Gaoyin.

"We will act as soon as possible, but... we have to wait for us to repair the equipment. You also know that the artisan area is now, uh... a bit crowded..."

"That's no problem. There are also craftsmen in the Imperial Guard camp. If you trust me, you can ask Karen to take them back and repair them."

"You are joking, there is nothing to worry about." Mo Bei said, and handed over the equipment to the commander Karen, and pointed emphatically at the Shenyu helmet, with an expression that was self-evident.

Karen nodded in understanding.

Mo Bei and Jerhein chatted again about the resettlement of the returning ethnic group, and Jerhyin didn't stay too long. He came out this time to rest, and there were still a lot of things waiting to be dealt with.

Seeing the car with a group of people disappearing into the night, Mo Bei couldn't help but sigh a little, it's not easy being a king.

He now has a deep understanding. As a shopkeeper, he feels that he can't worry about it. It's really embarrassing to stay in a place where monsters may break through and suppress him like Jerhyne at any time, and worry about the livelihood of tens of thousands of people. him.

But this time the money for repairing equipment and helmet charging was saved, this. .It should be a public expense. .
