Heart of the Castle

Chapter 60 Grace's Misunderstanding
The fat village head's threat made many villagers look hesitant. Many of these people escaped from villages destroyed by demons, and they have a very clear understanding of the dangers of the wilderness.Leaving refugee camps protected by tall wooden walls?They didn't even dare to think about doing this.

Seeing that the anger hanging over the villagers had slightly weakened, Huck showed a smug smile on his fat face, and then arrogantly turned his head to the young knight attendant on horseback.

"Mr. Li Wei, as the head of the village, I would like to express my gratitude for your help to this village. It stands to reason that such a noble behavior should be rewarded. But you have also seen the situation in the village. It was just ravaged by demons. , there are many places that need supplies. I think, young people like you with chivalry virtues will not have the heart to see the old, weak, women and children here starving? So the matter of remuneration will be discussed later, if there is nothing If there is something wrong, please leave here with your people now."

Village Chief Huck's words made Li Wei's face flicker with sadness. The young man stroked the mane of the mount under his crotch with his hands, and his downcast eyes showed a mixture of anger and disappointment.After discovering that the refugee camp was under attack, Li Wei did not hesitate and came to the rescue with all his strength.For this reason, he didn't even consider the danger of acting in the jungle at night, but the treatment he received was so indifferent. If it wasn't for the long-term teaching of Knight Ston that prevented him from doing anything to unarmed people, maybe he would Unable to suppress the anger in his chest, he rushed forward and cut off that hateful fat head with a sword!

Village Chief Hake saw Li Wei's hesitation, and secretly heaved a sigh of relief. What he was most afraid of just now was that Li Wei directly ordered his subordinates to attack him. The position of his biggest reliance—the sniper archer Grace is no longer clear. And even if Grace is on his side, the sentence that two fists are defeated by four hands is also fatal.

It was not easy to run Li Wei with words, and now Village Chief Huck certainly didn't dare to provoke the anger of the young people anymore, he turned his head again and said to the indifferent Grace.

"Mr. Grace, if you regret it, there is still time. I can ignore your offense just now. Please invite Mr. Levi and others out for me... Wait, what are you going to do?"

In front of Huck, a silver fir bow was drawn into the shape of a full moon, and the sharp arrows dangling on it were cold and cold.

Grace's voice was very cold.

"Huck, as I said, you need to give me a reasonable explanation."

There was greasy sweat on the face of Village Chief Huck, and his small eyes narrowed, "Explain? There is nothing to explain! As the village chief here, I am more important than all of you, so in Arrange a tunnel next to the house as a retreat. As long as I am here, no matter whether the village is destroyed by demons, it will be rebuilt."

"Really? Then if I let go of my hand, does it mean that the village has been destroyed?" Grace's hand holding the longbow did not tremble at all, but Huck's fat face twitched, and the The body moved back a bit.

"It's a troubled world where evil disasters are coming, Huck, don't you know this very well, so you're trying to make this camp your personal property?" The long body moved, and the people in front of the bow and arrow fled away one after another, completely exposing the fat body of the village chief Hake.

Huck's situation was now more difficult than it had been before.His cronies had dispersed under the threat of Grace, and everyone looked at him in horror and bewilderment.At such a short distance, Grace's bow and arrow are absolutely deadly, and this is a truth that not a few demons have proved with their lives.

What's more deadly is that Grace's nickname of Sniper Archer cannot be associated with adjectives such as kindness and discipline.Before the catastrophe came, this brilliant archer had a very vicious reputation among adventurers and was known as the God of Death.

Perhaps these people will not be afraid of Levi who is bound by the virtues of chivalry, but for Grace, the enemy will not hold a weapon, as long as they dare to stand in front of him, they will be killed by deadly arrows threatened.

"Mr. Grace, please calm down."

Li Wei's voice broke the stalemate of the confrontation, and the young knight attendant frowned tightly, and said in a voice of disapproval: "No matter what Village Chief Huck does, you have no right to seize it until you get a fair referee." Take his life."

"Is this the law followed by the so-called ancient nobles?" Grace's answer made Li Wei a little confused.However, after the tall and thin sniper archer finished speaking, he actually put away his longbow, making everyone, including Li Wei, feel like a big stone fell to the ground.

Li Wei didn't expect that a word of his own could have such a big effect.This Mr. Grace knew that he was a rebellious character at a glance. His confidence in his own strength and the pride unique to adventurers were vividly reflected in him.Putting down the bow and arrow so easily made Li Wei's prepared persuasive words useless.

The shadow of death moved from the head of Village Chief Hake, and the obese middle-aged man recovered from his stiffness and immediately sat down on the ground.When he was about to speak, he found that his throat was convulsed due to excessive tension, and he couldn't say anything for a while.

Grace walked past the sweaty village chief Huck and came to Li Wei's horse, bowing slightly with his left hand on his chest.

Li Wei's eyes moved, and Grace's movements were very elegant, but there was an imperceptible bluntness. Obviously, this movement used to be a part of his life, and it had been a long time since he did this.Although Li Wei hadn't really seen this action before, he had heard it from Knight Ston, and it was a courtesy performed by lower-ranking nobles to upper-ranking nobles before their identities were revealed.

"Grace is an aristocrat? And does he regard me as an aristocrat?" This thought flashed through Li Wei's mind, and he couldn't help being a little ridiculous. You must know that he was a small apprentice knight squire a few days ago, and because of The knight he served died in battle and was expelled from the castle by Viscount Lane.

If it was a noble, how could it be so embarrassing?

However, Grace did not make this point clear, and this etiquette also expressed his attitude. Li Wei hesitated for a moment, and turned over lightly from the horseback.As a fighter who has already reached the third level, it is not difficult for him to do this, but Grace's eyes became even hotter.

You know, in Grace's mind, Levi, who can release magic, is at least a magician with a formal identity. Even a magician can do such a light dismounting action, and he can even ride a horse among demons If it wasn't for the extremely ancient aristocratic background, Grace really couldn't think of any reason for rushing to kill.

"Is it a child from an ancient and noble family? In this case, I'm afraid he is the only chance for me to fulfill my wish." Grace thought so, and took out a roll of parchment that looked a bit worn out from his arms.

Li Wei took the roll of parchment strangely. It was written in quite smooth handwriting, but the grammar and spelling seemed a bit strange.The knowledge Li Wei learned from Knight Ston just included this point, and he can barely recognize that this is a variant of the text popular among nobles, but it is impossible to read it smoothly. Task.

Grace stood quietly opposite Li Wei, with a very calm expression on his face, but Li Wei keenly found a trace of ingeniously hidden madness on his face. Now Grace is like an iceberg that is about to collapse. It looks very strong and calm, but it may go crazy due to stimulation in the next moment.

The parchment in his hand suddenly became heavy, and Li Wei understood that if he couldn't read the writing on it, the hope that had just risen would be lost again, and Grace might completely collapse.If a sharp archer like him goes crazy, there will be heavy casualties in the camp.

Seeing Li Wei pondering while holding the parchment in his hand, Grace's eyes gradually changed from anticipation to doubt.The characters he used are very popular among nobles. Since he is a child of an ancient family and a magician, it is impossible for Li Wei to fail to recognize the characters on the parchment. Could it be that...

"Mr. Grace, are the things recorded on this parchment scroll true? Village Chief Huck has committed so many disgusting crimes?" Li Wei suddenly said loudly.The doubt in Grace's eyes disappeared, he bowed slightly again, and at the same time took out a small badge from his arms and held it in his palm.

"Yes, Mr. Li Wei, I guarantee with the family reputation of the big stride hunter that every word on this parchment scroll is true and credible!"
