Love and passion, cutting up the wasteland
Chapter 363 The Innocent Hero
As the old man told it, a tragic story slowly unfolded in front of the skinned people:
It turned out that their deputy leader Asha was not at the top of the city.
Precisely because he sensed the clues, he went after the blood spiders who broke through the defense line alone, and killed many fish that slipped through the net.
But, I didn't expect...
"A cruel and cunning insect mother ambushed him."
The sharp insect claws cut him open in the chest and cut him in half...
A guard came forward to check Asha's body: Sure enough, the upper and lower parts of the body were pieced together.
The cut surface of the wound was flat, which was obviously consistent with the characteristics of being attacked by a blood spider - but it was not eaten.
The skinned people had solemn expressions and heavy hearts.
For them, dying under the claws and jaws of the blood spider is not a rare thing. Many of their comrades have ended up like this.
Even Big Gray himself was severely injured by the blood spider - therefore, everyone still respects the old man very much.
Today, it's just the deputy leader's turn again.
"The deputy leader died for our Peeling Town..." someone said softly.
This is their hero!
Several people around him nodded in agreement.
Not only do I think of him, but also of my relatives and friends who also sacrificed their lives.
"Old man, that insect mother..." a guard asked.
Others were equally worried and curious.
After all, it was the Blood Spider that broke into the town - although there were still guards patrolling the city, now that even the deputy leader was attacked and died, it showed that it was still very dangerous.
——But since it was the big boss who said this.
Presumably, that female insect also died under the old man's broken knife.
It's considered revenge for the brothers.
Looking at the blood stains on the old man's body, this is even more confirmed.
It seems that Big Gray in the swamp still has his sword still young...
Everyone gathered with expectant eyes.
"Children..." Unexpectedly, Big Gray coughed twice, with indescribable emotion in his voice, "The one who avenges Asha is not me, the old man..."
He took a step sideways: "It's Lu Beiyou!"
The erect white-haired young man was exposed to the sight of all the skinners.
The young man's forehead was a little wet, his eyes were lowered and he didn't say a word. He pressed the hilt of the moon blade with one hand, just like an ordinary guard - as if he was mourning for the heroes of the town with everyone.
Only now did the skinned man realize.
It turns out that he was the one who killed the insect mother!
This is not surprising.
In terms of strength, no one doubts it.
Many people knew before that Lu Meng could fight against large blood spiders.
No wonder Big Gray would take this guest with him - not just out of courtesy, but also because he personally killed his enemy, avenged the deputy leader, and solved the hidden danger in Skinning Town.
When everyone's eyes look over.
Lu Meng opened his mouth, but did not make a sound.
After a long while, he shook his head and sighed.
Such a performance, in the eyes of everyone, seems to be saying: Although killing the insect mother is a great achievement, avenging everyone is also worthy of praise... However, after all, the deceased has passed away, how can I be happy? Get up?
The true feelings are beyond words.
"Mr. Lu..."
The skinned man's heart was suddenly filled with emotion, and some people couldn't help but change their honorifics.
Humble and unassuming, understand the situation - and more importantly, be able to empathize with everyone. Such an attitude is even more admirable.
This is a good person.
At this time, the skinned men who escorted Asha's body also began to add details to their companions.
They were the guards who rushed into the backyard that night.
What the guards saw was deputy leader Asha broken in two, the old skinned man lying on the ground, and a knife-wielding maniac in the rain - at first glance, it did look like a murder scene.
And, this is the truth.
However……
They heard another set of explanations.
Surrounded by people.
Lu Meng and Da Gray looked at each other.
Big Gray: Thank you.
Lu Meng: It’s just as it should be.
This is the last bit of decency.
Asha is no longer a deputy leader who stays behind and enjoys comfort while everyone else is fighting bloody battles.
Instead, he transformed and became the hero of Skinning Town.
A dead hero.
All imperfections are washed away and all that remains is the aura. He will become a symbol used to inspire the townspeople to continue fighting and living, to the fullest extent.
The skinned man's faith will not be shaken.
Lu Meng will become the person who avenges the hero.
From this, inherit all expectations for heroes——
The guard who was telling the details secretly glanced at Big Gray and saw that his expression was as usual.
He was secretly happy.
In fact, the old man also 'made' them hide some things.
For example, he was knocked to the ground by the 'blood spider' - Lu Beiyou not only avenged the deputy leader, but also saved their leader.
This is considered an embarrassment, so it’s normal that the old man won’t let me talk about it.
——Because such a small thought was deliberately exposed, it made this statement even more true. Instead, the guards ignored some other details that might be confusing and contradictory, and just felt that they should not delve into it further.
Even Lu Beiyou himself, who was 'rescuing people', had no objection.
He has a high emotional intelligence and is willing to save some face for the old man.
What's the point of bothering these subordinates anymore?
The skinned people gathered together, surrounding Lu Meng and his party. Seto, Cang Cui, Ah Quan and others were also among them. They praised, thanked and sighed constantly, intertwined together.
Only then did they realize that it was really thanks to each other this time.
On the one hand, Cang Cui was an acquaintance, and his exquisite shooting skills were often mentioned by the old man;
The little girl from the Shark tribe, Ase, has courage and bravery beyond her years, and her performance in helping them skin the town is obvious to all.
Mr. Lu, needless to say.
If he hadn't brought these friends to Peeling Town, it would never have been as easy as today to repel the insect wave.
By then, more ordinary Skinners will die on the battlefield, and their families will never be able to wait for their return.
As for his character, it is even more admirable.
It's a pity that the deputy leader Asha...
Presumably, if he knew, Mr. Lu had helped him get perfect revenge and protected the town.
He would also be satisfied.
"Big Gray." The skeleton man walked through the noisy crowd and stood beside the old man.
"Soto, you're back. I heard that you decided to follow them without authorization..." Big Gray turned around and looked at him, stunned for a moment, "Are you injured?"
The color of the repaired metal is very different from the surrounding color.
This is considered a scar, and it can be seen that it is quite dangerous.
"It doesn't matter, right?" The human voice was nervous.
"It's okay," the Bone Man said, "It's all up to them."
Following the direction of the camera, Big Gray saw the young people surrounded.
He smiled.
"It seems I made the right decision."
"Skinned people..." The big leader took a step forward and suddenly spoke.
"It's a good thing that the insect tide has been repelled, but unfortunately... we still can't relax," he looked at everyone, "Now the alliance is coming. Originally, the deputy leader was attending on our behalf, but now..."
Hearing this, many people had sadness and worry in their eyes.
Not only for the 'hero', but more for Big Gray.
Everyone knows that with the old man's current physical condition, it is impossible to compete so fiercely with other big bosses.
There was Asha here before, and although he wasn't very qualified, he was still useful enough.
As a result, after an insect wave passed.
Hope was dashed again.
"I need a successor... no, a new deputy leader." He looked at the crowd.
The skinned people followed the big leader's gaze and locked onto a figure, all showing surprise on their faces.
That was exactly what they were surrounding just now...
"Travel to the north."
Big Gray said:
"——He will represent us Skinners and attend the guild in the entire swamp!"
Lu Meng met his gaze.
"Being respectful is worse than obeying orders." He bowed slightly.
The plan is now complete.
