The cold-faced earl doesn't want to trigger the plot

"The complexity of this matter is probably far beyond your imagination. If you want to explain it clearly...It probably starts with the fact that I gained the ability of a prophet after losing my memory a few months ago..."

Volume Three: Chapter 270 Five, a grand event

Riber's explanation took a long time.

If you ask how much time there is, it is the fifth reincarnation at this time, and Riber hasn't finished explaining...

In fact, it's not that Riber has so much experience since the time travel, but that Antoinette always raises his eyebrows and speaks rudely on the way.Naturally, Riber wouldn't be used to it, and he stopped telling Antoinette when he scolded someone, bringing the story to an abrupt end.Riber would not continue until some time later, when Antoinette made a dark face and promised that he would not interrupt again.

Overall, this situation has been repeated.In addition, there are some things that Bell can't say, but the explanation is not clear, and the settings need to be edited.So, it took so long without knowing it.

Although, Riber's matter is closely related to Antoinette, that's why Antoinette always took the initiative to listen to the follow-up again and again even though he was full of reluctance.

But on the other hand, the storytelling in Riber's experience is also indispensable.

It was the first time he discovered that after time travel, many things really happened to him.

He also seems to be doing sit-ups all the time at the dead line or something.

so...

In the future, if he really turns from an earl to a commoner, he should find a bridge to tell stories or something, so he can eat and drink without worrying about it.

You don't need to talk about anything else, just talk about how you survived the counterattack.

Of course, in the past few reincarnations of Riber, it is impossible to just explain these things all the time.

Therefore, Riber, who felt that he had almost gathered the conditions to break the reincarnation, planned to solve everything in this reincarnation.

...

...

"So, you came to destroy our ceremony just because you were deceived and induced?"

In the fifth reincarnation, on the night of the ninth day, Antoinette, who finally listened to Riber's narration of all the ins and outs, questioned in disbelief.

"No way, right? Who made you easy to be misunderstood."

Riber spread his hands, with an expression that a dead pig is not afraid of boiling water.

If it is said that before seeing Antoinette in the nightmare, Riber felt guilty about the diva camp, maybe there was some.But after being scolded by Antoinette for so long, his mentality was calm.

Thinking about it carefully, even without Charlotte's misleading, Ribel would still have to get rid of reincarnation and compete with their camp for the power of a pure witch in the old capital.They are just competition in themselves.

And Riber didn't use any despicable means, including the plan to shake the Silver Diva camp from the front.

Therefore, even if it is not to the extent of complacency, guilt is completely unnecessary.

"There are too many reincarnations, the power of the witch's core is exhausted, and you will die? Of course, this situation is theoretically possible. The premise is that if you want to die, you must trigger Countless reincarnations. The core of the witch is really so easy to dry up, that princess has been reincarnated in the old capital for so many years, how is she still alive?"

Antoinette said excitedly.

"Before I didn't know that Charlotte had been reincarnated in the old capital for so long. It was you who used the power of reincarnation to prevent me from seeing Charlotte. Moreover, the reincarnation witch never asked us for advice, and asked us what to do. Don't be involved in reincarnation, right? In reincarnation, we feel discomfort is also a real thing. In addition, people who should have possessed the core of the witch joined the True King Church, which is in the midst of the competition. Find an alternative. I think it may be the phenomenon of reincarnation that caused the candidates of the True King Church to die..."

"She was 97 years old when she died! She even sent me an invitation to the banquet when she was 95 years old!"

Antoinette emphasized angrily.

"So...forget it, I don't want to argue with you about right or wrong. If your witch's descent ceremony is successful, my situation may not be better than it is now. My suggestion is to pay for the past. For running water. Let's look at the present, Miss Silver Diva."

Riber said earnestly.

It's a pity that Antoinette has no entity, otherwise Riber would have gone up and patted her on the shoulder.

"you you--"

Antoinette puffed out her chest and panted heavily.

Obviously, she was really angry.

Riber is just a pity that Antoinette has no knowledge of his original world.Otherwise, for example, it should help Antoinette understand the current situation.

For example, a speeding truck hit Antoinette.So should Antoinette blame the truck, or the truck driver?

And in this example, he is the speeding truck...

Hmm, something seems wrong.

...

who cares?

All in all, Riber felt that what he had to say had been said.For the rest, just leave it to Antoinette to decide.

Also as the truck driver... er, Charlotte's victim.If they can share the same hatred, it is the most ideal result.

Riber didn't expect that after coming to the old capital, for the first time, there was almost no concealment, and the person who told everything would be Antoinette.

Obviously, this is the only thing Riber is good at and has been doing since time travel.

But in the old royal capital, it's fine for him to play riddles with various forces, and the communication with the people around him is obviously not in place.

If there is a reason, it may be because he has too many secrets.

With those of the Phantom Thieves, Riber needs to conceal various things about the Church of Scourge and betrayal of the Church of Scourge.

As for Sister Melueta, he needs to conceal all kinds of things about fear and the mysterious side.

Riber's original intention was good, and he didn't want the people around him to be involved in dangerous situations that had nothing to do with them.However, in the situation where they are in contact with each other, and there is such a hub as him in the center, this kind of expectation is obviously unrealistic.

The end result is what it is now.

Among all the people, it seemed that he was the only one sober.And once he, the only one who knows everything, has a problem with his decision-making, is misled or deceived, it will cause everyone to be tied to him and encounter danger together.

It seems that "don't want someone to get involved in something" is the most unreliable idea.

Ewenna in the past proved this, and he in the old capital proved it again.

Sighing lightly, after looking back, Riber realized that he had actually built a thick wall for the people around him.

On the one hand, it was because many people were characters in the game "The Witch is Wailing" in his eyes.That sense of unreality will more or less remain.

On the other hand, it has only been about half a year since he traveled.In other words, the longest person he has known is only half a year.Therefore, he would subconsciously think that the connection and emotion established in less than half a year would not be too reliable.

At the same time, with his vision as a time traveler, he can see the plot and other powers, which makes him feel that his actions are always right.Combined with the earl's identity, it further exacerbated the estrangement that he already had.

Then, after leaving this nightmare, what Riber has to do is very simple.

Gather those companions who are willing to be by his side and have a good chat.

...

While Riber ignored Antoinette's furious noise and was thinking about the future.

At the gate of the village, dozens of villagers from other villages with hoes, sticks, hunting bows and other props appeared.

...

...

At the gate of the village, the scattered villagers saw the blacksmith's strong son being picked up and thrown to the ground by the leader of the outer village, who was much taller than him.

"Call out your village chief!"

After the leader of the outer village with a fierce face and the hostile visitor roared, the other villagers who came before him also roared in unison.

While some villagers were frantically looking for the village chief, many shadowy figures appeared on the outskirts of the village, sneaking into the village in the dark.

Floating in the sky, Antoinette, who saw the overall situation of the village more clearly than anyone else, frowned slightly, and returned to Riber's side again.

"This is your plan? Gather people from the three surrounding villages and fight against the tide of monsters together in the village?"

These days, or in other words, during these several reincarnations, Antoinette clearly saw what Riber did.

Obviously the goal this time is to survive the two sisters Marlene and Gray Bird.However, Riber has been finding another way, except for trying to take them away during the first reincarnation, he has basically never contacted them.

What Riber has been doing is trying to incite people in the surrounding villages to gather as much as possible in the village where the two sisters are.

In the reincarnation of acting with the caravan, Riber probably knew the situation of these villages.

To put it simply, the small villages on the edge of the Great Barrier are actually places where the nearby big city Toton used to exile criminals.

Of course, it's not the kind of vicious one, because there is still hanging in Toton City.

Also, criminals were exiled to different villages depending on the seriousness of the crime.

To put it simply, the village where the two sisters lived and the other village were all petty criminals.And the remaining one is full of criminals with relatively serious crimes.

Of course, in the three villages, there are also Sisters Marlene who are implicated by their parents.Or, people who should not have been exiled because of too harsh punishment or misjudgment.

However, under such a harsh general environment in the three villages, basically everyone will become more "simple".

And Riber felt that this kind of people with ulterior motives and strong desires would be better used instead.

After several attempts, his plan was to get the so-called "Meteor Iron" directly from the blacksmith first.

In terms of weight, the meteorite is obviously not gold.But looking bling bling can be deceiving.Moreover, since it can be used to make swords, it is a very large piece in itself.Therefore, the visual effect is even more amazing.

As for the blacksmith, seeing that Riber doesn't want a sword, but only needs "meteor iron", he is also happy to make it without putting on airs.Therefore, the conclusion of this transaction will be extraordinarily easy in every reincarnation.

Then, Riber took the meteorite and came to another village of petty criminals.

He was worried that he, a stranger, would get a cold reception in this strange village.

But soon he found himself worrying too much.Because these simple villagers are obviously quite big.

As soon as he entered the village, he was warmly greeted by several villagers, and was taken to a bar that looked like a private house for entertainment.

Before these villagers started to tie themselves up to get things, or take a step closer, Riber successfully used the piece of "Meteorite Iron", which aroused the interest of the villagers.

He calls himself a traveling merchant.

And because he obtained a lot of information about the merchants in this area during the reincarnation of the caravan, there will be no flaws in his words.

Then, being "drunk", he began to mock the village with Sister Marlene presumptuously.It is said that the people in that village didn't even know that this kind of ore could be used as gold in Toton City after smelting and processing.A group of people are on a huge mineral lode, and they haven't realized it yet.I just used some small things to get such a big piece.

Gradually, under Riber's rhetoric, greed blinded the eyes of these villagers.

Because, even in a place where birds don't lay eggs like the edge of the Great Barrier, gold is of great value.

Among other things, they only need to bribe the guards of Toton City a little, and they will be able to re-enter the bustling city where they were exiled.In the city, you only need to cover up the brand marks on your body, and you can live like ordinary people.

Ever since, Riber was very relaxed, and gathered a group of people who were willing to "do big things" with him.

Their plan is very simple, that is, to break into villages with "gold mines" and search them wantonly.However, the gold village will not be left to them.After all, they don't know the goods now, but if too many people covet them, they can react.

So, to stop this from happening.They need the gold village, and they are in such a mess that they can't take care of themselves, and they don't have time to pay attention to them who steal gold.

As for the plan to make Jinzi Village chaotic, the planner was naturally Riber.

Jinzi Village and the neighboring Felon Village use water from two branches of the same main stream.The two villages have always had constant battles over water issues.

So they went to the felon village to cause chaos, making them mistakenly think that Riber and others were from Jinzi Village, and then Riber and others tried to pollute and block the water source, which was "accidentally" witnessed by people from the felon village.

It is not difficult to foresee the scene where the recidivist village gathers people to Jinzi Village to ask for an explanation.

Because, there are like-minded gold-stealing "partners" around Riber, and they succeeded in pretending to use water sources to instigate the two villages.

And Riber's "partners", although they also doubted Riber's purpose.

However, they would never have imagined that there would be a wave of monsters suddenly attacking the gleaming golden village.And Riber's purpose is to gather a large number of people into the village.

So, after a lot of thinking, the "partners" who felt that the purpose of Riber's actions can only be out of interests, have been tied to his thief ship by Riber.

After several drills, all of Riber's actions achieved the expected results.

...

It was late at night.

There are torchlights shining everywhere in the small village, and more than a hundred villagers from the three villages have gathered with their own thoughts.

What they are about to meet is the tide of monsters from all directions.

Volume Three: Chapter 270 VI, Unrepairable

From the situation of the "Sage Pillar", it is not difficult to judge that even the three villages used to exile criminals were indeed in the territory of humans in the past, instead of being basically surrounded by wilderness as they are now.

And even with the Great Barrier of the Great Sage, the living territory is constantly being compressed by monsters, which is the cruel status quo of human beings in this era.

It is precisely because the three villages are surrounded by wilderness that it is almost impossible for the people in the villages to know about the arrival of the monster tide in advance.

Because, if you want to attack a village with weak defenses, the monsters don't need to gather and other steps at all. They gather into an army and let people like sentries detect them in advance.
