Steve's Ark of Tomorrow

"Actually, it's not that unsafe."

For some reason, Alina felt a little embarrassed when she couldn't see Muyou's figure. If she couldn't see other people, she always felt that he was always watching her by her side.

She didn't know how to describe it.

"It's all right, anyway, you can go to the village now, can't you? I think they seem to be arguing with someone, are you sure you don't want to go and have a look?"

Mu You smiled, and then lightly patted Alina on the shoulder, signaling her not to focus on herself.

And Talula could only twitch the corners of her mouth, and walked quickly towards the entrance of the village where the people gathered with Alina who was beside her.

Chapter 97 How much are you willing to give? (3k

Sneaking back from the back of the village with Alina, Talula just wanted to see how the two old people in her family were doing, when she was suddenly caught by two pickets who were patrolling the street. soldiers found out.

"What are you two doing? Don't you know that the whole village has been notified to gather at the entrance of the village?"

Mu You, who was hiding at the side, almost didn't spit out. Although this sentence was not funny, but when he thought of the cement that came with it, he felt that the style of painting had changed.

"us……"

"Yes, we just came back from outside."

Standing in front of Tallulah interrupted what she was about to say. Alina was obviously better at dealing with these picket soldiers than she was, and had no intention of going against them. Then went to the entrance of the village.

Perhaps it was because Tallulah's outfit didn't look like what ordinary people in this village could have, and the two soldiers didn't make things difficult for them.

The dress on Tallulah looks more like something that noble ladies in the mobile city can afford. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, they can only ignore this girl who is obviously targeting them. Attitude.

Just like they looked down on those infected people, those noble ladies in the city also looked down on them.

And when Talula and Alina were brought to the entrance of the village, they realized that the whole village had been gathered here.

This naturally includes the two old people from yesterday.

And at the front of the crowd, the village chief was talking with the leader of the infected picket team, but judging from their faces, the conversation didn't seem very pleasant.

"With all due respect, sir, when you came here last week, you almost took away nearly half of the food in the village, and now you are saying that there are some monsters wandering around, and you have to search again or something, we really There is no way to take out any more things."

Muyou and Talula's hearing is very good, even if they are on the periphery of the crowd, they can still hear their conversation clearly, but their reactions to the first sentence at the beginning are somewhat different.

Tallulah naturally felt that this was nothing more than another unreasonable plunder by the picket team of the infected, but Mu You wondered if the monster they mentioned would be the same as the demon he met before related to something.

But the escape route of that thing is indeed not in the direction of this village, and it is a bit unclear what the real situation is.

"I don't know what you mean, but this is the order from above. All we have to do is follow it. If you want to resist, it is a violation of military law. The infected picket has the right to directly define you as a rebel oppression, I think you should understand, right?"

The huge figure of the solid picket leader wrapped in thick armor was in stark contrast to the thin old man in front of him, but what he said seemed more like a threat.

"And we don't want you to come up with anything, it's just that we protect the safety of you civilians, so you should also give us some rewards, isn't that unreasonable?"

He questioned the old man in front of him in a low voice. If someone who didn't know heard it, he might not feel that there was anything wrong.

But only these civilians who have been oppressed by this group of infected pickets know that they would rather not have such so-called protection.

"Yes, I understand. All officers and gentlemen have suffered a lot, and they should, and should."

Even though his heart was bleeding, the old man could only lower his head and agree to the officer in front of him in an extremely humble tone, not daring to show any intention of resisting at all.

The previous sentence was already the only thing he could say for the village, just like what the officer said, if the debate continues, they can define the village as a rebel at any time, and then slaughter them all on the spot.

This kind of thing, although they are compatriots, but what they do does not match the words of compatriots, it is not impossible to do it.

Even afterwards, it is not impossible to define their corpses as infected people and record them as military exploits.

How can this be done?In this village where there are basically only old, weak, women and children left, how can they negotiate terms with this group of people?

The village chief can only hope that this group of robbers can continue to squeeze them in the future, and don't do things too badly.

But Tallulah below could only clenched her fists, staring directly at the officer who spoke high-sounding words but acted like a bandit with eyes full of anger.

"I don't understand, are these villagers infected?"

But at this moment, Muyou's voice with some doubts came from her ears, but the tone, no matter how you heard it, seemed to be arguing.

"No, they are all very ordinary farmers."

Answering the pastoral question in a low voice as if talking to herself, Tallulah suppressed her anger.

It's not yet time, even if she takes the initiative to drive away the picket team of infected people, it will only cause more trouble for the villagers.

Even though she hated the actions of these bandits, Tallulah knew very well that now was definitely not the time to resist.

"That's weird. They're called picket teams for the infected. They don't bother the infected, but come here to bully normal farmers. What's the point?"

Mu You pursed his lips. What he said actually meant a little bit more fire. After all, he knew very well that this group of people were not willing to do this, of course, because the infected people had no money to fish for.

One can be beneficial, but the other can only be thankless. Everyone knows how to choose.

"Yes, this is an unreasonable thing. This is the current problem in this country. The infected are just a reason for them to oppress others. Only the bottom people will always suffer."

Tallulah's tone was dignified. For the shepherd, she was willing to say words that would definitely be judged treasonous once heard by the officials of Ursas, because she had a feeling that if she really wanted to If you do something, it will be much easier to get this person's help.

"Tsk tsk tsk, I really don't understand what other people want. It turns out that reality is always the most magical thing."

Mu You, who was in an invisible state, shook his head. Before doing these magical things, he could only see them on TV or in novels at most. It was really incomprehensible for him to experience such things personally.

At least there will be no such strange things in MC, everyone is saying what they say, even if the villagers attack the village, they just want to rob emeralds.

At least they won't do these things in the name of protecting the villagers, will they?

Ok?Wait, why does it sound like...it seems like you can do it yourself?

Thinking of this, Muyou coughed twice in embarrassment. Fortunately, no one knows what he did before, otherwise it would be interesting.

"Are you really not going to resist? If this continues, it will only make these people more and more unscrupulous."

Turning his face to look at the pickets of the infected who had begun to plunder in the name of searching the village without any consideration, Mu You whispered in Tallulah's ear .

Let's not talk about whether she has the ability to resist, but as far as the present is concerned, at least she shouldn't be slaughtered like this, right?

"It's not yet time, at least, not now, and I have no way to change all of this. If I act rashly, it will only make things worse."

Talula shook her head, why didn't she want to hear Mu You's rise up and resist?But after doing that, what can change?She can do without worrying about being tracked down by Ursus officials, but what about the rest of the village?

"Well, you are calmer than I imagined. I thought that people who play fire magic are more irritable."

After hearing Tallulah's reply, Muyou smiled. He thought that Tallulah would stop these people desperately after hearing this kind of thing, but now it seems that this girl is obviously stronger than he imagined. The ones in are much smarter.

At least this calmness, Muyou still appreciates it.

"I'm just suppressing my anger, but that doesn't mean I can accept it."

There was a gleam of fire in the silver eyes, and Talula almost gritted her teeth to answer Muyou's question. If the current situation didn't allow it, why didn't she want to follow her own temperament to do what she wanted? What to do?

Alina on the side also seemed to have noticed Tallulah's suppressed anger, so she could only stretch out her small hand and gently hold her palm, hoping to give her some comfort.

"Well, then, if I say that I have a way to solve this predicament in front of me, what can you give?"

Muyou squeezed her chin, the current situation seems to be almost unsolvable for Talula, all she can do is endure, but for him, it is not a matter at all, is it?

At least if Mu You thinks about it casually, there are many solutions to the current problem, and it's not too difficult to implement.

"Huh? Can you help me?"

Talula's frown stretched out. She believed that Mu You would not deceive herself casually. Since he said that there is a way, he must be able to deal with this group of people and at the same time not give this The village is in trouble.

"Of course, but well, it depends on how much you are willing to pay for it."

Muyou smiled. Fortunately, Talula couldn't see his current situation. Otherwise, if he noticed Muyou's gaze that had been lingering on her delicate lips, Bao Buqi would think it was strange place to go.

Chapter 98 The Headless Horseman from the Abyss (3k5)

"……what do you want?"

There is no direct agreement. Although Talula is angry at the moment, she is not dazzled by it. There is no good intention for no reason in this world. Since Muyou has asked what he needs to pay, it means that he is sure. is in demand.

She hasn't expressed the awareness that she can give everything for this kind of thing.

"Actually, it's not too difficult for you, all you need is, um, a little dragon saliva?"

Mu You didn't want to hide anything, so he directly said what he needed. He helped her solve such a big problem. Asking her for some saliva is not too much, right?

But because the word saliva is easy to make people think wrong, Muyou still chose a more literary name.

"Dragon saliva?"

Talula was stunned for a moment when she heard the word, and then she reacted, a blush suddenly appeared on her fair and cute little face.

"You apprentice, why do you want that thing?"

There was more than doubt in the tone of anger, she felt very strange why Mu You needed this, could it be that this is some new way of asking for a kiss from herself?

But it was the first time she met him. Although the impression he gave her was pretty good, it was far from being able to do such a thing, okay?

"Huh? Don't worry about it so much, anyway, will you give it or not?"

On the contrary, Mu You is even more strange than her, but she just wanted to drool, why did she still call herself a disciple, fortunately, he kindly used a literary term.

Tallulah wanted to refuse, but she hesitated after seeing the pickets of infected people moving out the only food left in the village.

If just paying this little price can get everyone in the village to survive this severe winter in peace, is it worth his own sacrifice?

"If you can do it, then I should be able to do it."

Taking a deep breath, Tallulah looked at the open space beside her with the determination to go all out. Although she couldn't see Mu You's figure, her intuition told her that this guy should be waiting here her reply.

"Then it's settled, and then you can take care of it."

The nomadic voice gradually faded away, but Tallulah could only look at the direction in which he was leaving, and couldn't figure out how he could change the current situation.

However, this doubt did not last long. After only a few minutes, Talula knew how outrageous this so-called method of Muyou would be.

Suddenly there was a strange sound like some kind of biological group moving rapidly in the originally calm snowfield. Along with these sounds, there was also a feeling of palpitation that no one could ignore.

It was as if some terrifying monster was hiding in the wind and snow, whether it was the pickets of the infected who were plundering the village, or the villagers who dared not speak out, all stopped After comprehending the movements in his hands, he neatly looked towards the direction where the strange feeling came from.

The wind and snow seemed to fade away gradually because of that unknown existence, revealing its true face.

I saw a group of weird snowmen more than two meters tall standing in the ice and snow, and the weird smiles on the pumpkins on their heads made people shudder.

What's even more frightening is that their bodies, which are obviously made of pure snowflakes, can actually move forward like living things. Accompanied by the weird smile on the pumpkin's head, it makes people feel a sense of wonder. Kind of heart hairy feeling.

Moreover, compared with these weird snowmen, what really brings a sense of oppression is behind them, riding a tall skeleton warhorse, wearing the same weird pumpkin head, and covered in burning flames knight in the.

The purple-black armor exudes a strange light, and the flames covering his whole body seem to burn the sky. The long sword in his hand is shining coldly, as if it may absorb the soul of the viewer at any time.

Such a knight with a lot of strange snowmen appeared out of nowhere, standing in front of this small village, as if he just touched a small stumbling block on the way to march.

Although the infected picket team didn't know what happened at all, it was undeniable that they were in a confrontation with this strange group of troops that seemed to have come out of legends.

Then, the knight held up the purple-black long sword in his hand, and slashed lightly, only to see that the flying snow that was still falling in front of him was directly divided into two halves because of this sword, and it was separated from the sword. Its snowman army was completely revealed.

"No, the Headless Horseman ahhhh!"

I don't know who collapsed because he couldn't bear the pressure, suddenly called out such a title, and the tranquility of the whole village was suddenly broken, and everyone had panic expressions on their faces, maybe they didn't know What is a headless horseman, but the strange knight in front of him obviously doesn't look like a passerby.

The leader of the infected person picket team was even more stunned, his legs trembling uncontrollably.

He may be a high-ranking officer when facing the infected and these villagers, but in front of this kind of monster that obviously cannot appear normally, he is just an ordinary person.

Reluctantly swallowing a mouthful of saliva, the captain dared to remind his subordinates to be vigilant, not to get confused, and saw the strange knight who was far behind the group of snowmen came to him almost in the blink of an eye. beside.

The breath of the warhorse, whose whole body was like a skeleton, hit his face from his mouth and nose, but he could only feel the coldness that seemed to freeze him. Afterwards, he seemed to feel that there was no need to communicate with him at all. Normally, the knight who was bathed in the flames raised the long sword in his hand to him.

Puchi...

It wasn't the sound of the long sword slicing across the body, but the leader of the infected picket team couldn't resist the oppressive feeling brought by the knight at all, and fell to his knees on the ground with his legs weak.

A foul-smelling yellowish liquid flowed out from under his pants, but he didn't seem to feel it at all. Instead, he knocked his head on the ground continuously, trying to beg the knight in front of him to spare his life.

The closer he got, the more he could feel the instinctive fear. The threat of death immediately made him drop all his dignity and sense of mission. Ursus, pickets, how could he be alive? important?

This guy in front of him is definitely not a human being. Who knows how bad luck he was to encounter this kind of thing. He was obviously just making a fortune by getting down from the top. Who would have thought that he would encounter such a thing? hell?

But to his surprise, his begging for mercy by abandoning everything seemed to have some effect. The knight in front of him didn't seem to expect him to be so weak, and the skeleton horse's hooves also wanted to take a few steps back. As if he didn't want to touch the filthy liquid coming out of his feet.

"Killing you is an insult to my sword."

A low, hoarse, undead-like voice came from the knight in front of him, and the voice that sounded like fingernails were scratching on the blackboard made the man's ears feel as if they were about to be pierced, but he He still didn't dare to stop kowtowing, and kept repeating and repeating.
