Medieval Reiki Revival

Chapter 31 The Value of a Corpse

Seeing the werewolf's body lying motionless on the ground, everyone present breathed a sigh of relief.

Several guards took out cigarettes from their pockets and lit them tremblingly. Two soldiers stood up from the ground while supporting each other, staring at the corpse of the beast with lingering fear.

Blue smoke slowly floated into the sky, and the pungent smell of tobacco could not cover up the blood on the scene.

Of the 23 guards that formed the ranks, two were killed and three seriously wounded.

Those who survived had more or less skin trauma.

Ivan immediately announced: "All guards who participated in the operation can receive 100 gold lang, and those who are injured can also receive treatment in the medical center."

Great!
The guards felt extremely happy, and even the injuries on their bodies felt much more relaxed.

In this era before the invention of the steam engine, a middle-class family had to live frugally for five years to save 100 gold lang.

Now they got this wealth just by participating in a battle, and happiness instantly filled the hearts of the men.

They left the dead brother behind in the blink of an eye, and each of them showed a look of excitement.

Needless to say, these bachelors are already thinking about how to spend extravagantly.

At this time, Sheriff Henry became coy.

He touched the long sword in his hand that was not stained with blood, and said awkwardly: "My eldest nephew, E Yifan, although our battle went smoothly this time, it still took a lot of money after all. You see, my brothers are all dead!" Lost."

"And citizens, they need an explanation. Many people saw our actions and maybe even heard gunshots."

"As the sheriff in the city, I feel that I have to give the mayor an explanation, so can the body of this werewolf be handed over to me?"

Ivan blinked, he knew that the sheriff wanted to go back on his word.

Because according to their previous agreement, no matter whether it was a wild wolf or a werewolf caught, the ownership of the corpse should belong to the Dowling family, and all the funds for this operation were provided by themselves.

Whether morally or emotionally.

It's all Ivan's.

And now Henry wants to get the body back because he knows that as the city's sheriff, he has not made any achievements over the years.

If he could show the corpse of the werewolf to the public, he would gain a great reputation, and he might become a Christian hero like "Joan of Arc".

Sake is popular with people, and money is touching people's hearts.

Fortunately, the Dorian family has a good relationship with the other party, and the sheriff himself has a somewhat sense of justice.

If it were an ordinary civilian, the werewolf's body would have been snatched away.

To give, or not to give?
Ivan noticed that the other party was very close to him, and he was completely defenseless.

He thought about a possibility in his mind, if he slashed directly from this angle, he should be able to cut off the trachea with one blow and take the opponent's life.

Of course, this is a joke.

Unless Ivan has the ability to kill all the guards present, any impulsive behavior is asking for trouble.

Ivan laughed immediately: "Your request is not unreasonable. We have agreed before that the corpse should belong to the Dorian family as a spoil of war."

"However"

Hearing this, the magistrate quickly said: "But what, if I need any other help, I will try my best to do it. Nephew Ivan, you should know that it is very important to me now?"

"You are joking, Uncle Henry."

Ivan proposed a solution: "You have always had a good relationship with our Dorian family, how can I make things difficult for you? How about this, I hope to use werewolf corpses for medical research."

"But I can temporarily sacrifice the interests of long-term research and only briefly dissect it."

"In this way, although you need to delay the display of the corpse for a while, I can embalm the entire corpse after the dissection, so that the later display time will be longer."

Sheriff Henry was very happy when he heard the news. The more he looked at the young man in front of him, the more pleasing he was to his eyes. He put a hand on Ivan's shoulder and praised him for his noble qualities.

What a young and promising.

Or handsome and unrestrained, courageous.

The high hat of no money is put on Ivan's head.

More importantly, Sheriff Henry patted his chest and said: "Nephew Ivan, you are the most outstanding young man I have ever seen. If I were a few years younger, I would definitely become brothers with you. From today, as long as I Within the scope of my authority, I can help you with everything."

Ivan tilted his head with a smile on his face: "That would be great."

The guards borrowed carts from a workshop not far away, and they dared not use the cart ropes to hoop their chief's favorite horse, but unexpectedly, the chief was dazzled by his reputation, so he hung the harness on the horse himself.

The black horse was not satisfied with his situation, his beautiful hooves bobbed up and down, obviously not happy with his treatment.

"Little man, now your father and I are going to get rich. Hahaha, when I become the hero of Luzpitburg, I will definitely choose a thoroughbred wife for you, and then we will all Happy."

Henry calmed down for a while before making the dark horse reluctantly willing to pull the goods.

"Brothers, lift this gray wolf up."

"Today I went to Altila's Tavern to reserve a seat, and everyone will not return until drunk."

"Boss, that's great."

Others cheered for their aura, but a guard looked at the werewolf's fur and suddenly felt something was wrong: "Sir, this seems a bit wrong."

He shouted: "I remember someone saw a black wild wolf!"

"Why is this head gray?"

"what?"
