Legendary Hero

After coming out of the abandoned gold mine in Mire Town, Rollin didn't stop for a moment. He hurried back to Vendome with boxes of spell crystals, the captive Saledo, and the seriously injured Bernard.

He is well aware of the great power of the Destruction Sect, the faster he is, the safer he is, just like the previous few times, the less likely it is that an interception will happen midway.

So on this journey, he almost traveled day and night, and the soldiers took turns resting on horseback. When resting, they just closed their eyes and mic for a while.

Marching like this, when the sun was about to set in the evening of the second day, they crossed the Oriole Valley Road safely, and were less than ten miles away from Vendome. Standing on the high ground, they could already see the city wall of Vendome up.

Here they are truly safe.

Luo Lin also breathed a sigh of relief, and ordered the entire army to rest on the spot for half an hour to recover the energy that was about to be exhausted.

While resting, Adjutant Hansen came to report: "Sir, that man is awake. He said he wants to see you."

Of course that person refers to Bernard, Rowling nodded, and walked towards the back of the line with Dai Wei.

Because Bernard was really weak and he was a nobleman, during the march, Rowling arranged for two orderlies to take care of him. He had already put on clean clothes, and his face was much ruddy. When Luo Lin arrived, he was sitting on the fur laid on the grass, sipping the bird broth fed to him by the orderlies.

"Master Bernard, how do you feel?" Rollin greeted. From Saledo, he already knew what this Bernard did. To be honest, he was very naive, and he killed several soldiers.

But after Rowling thought it over, he finally decided to hide the matter and not to mention it again, because this is not a democratic earth, and this Bernard is a high-ranking nobleman. Just let him pay a few hundred gold coins. Gold coins are not a burden to Bernard, but losing face will make this guy hate him for the rest of his life, which is very troublesome.

As for the soldiers who died in battle, Luo Lin decided to compensate them in private.

"Not bad." Bernard looked at Luo Lin, and then at Dai Wei who was following him, his eyes were a little sad.

During this catastrophe, he thought of many things. The most important point is that in this world, his aristocratic status and his prominent status are not entirely a good thing. This status means huge benefits, but it also means greater responsibilities.

Yes, responsibility, he was deeply aware of it when those lizard people tortured him, wanted him to submit, and became a puppet who specially provided gold coins for those dark ones.

From this logic, he drew a conclusion that when a person has the ability to take responsibility, then no matter what his current status is, he deserves to be treated equally.

Obviously, Rowling is such a person.

He came from a very humble background, an orphan who came out of an unknown woman's belly, but from the occasional conversations of those dark creatures, he felt their hate and fear towards this young man. Apparently, this Rollin has been on a mission to fight some terrible darkness, and has achieved great success.

The other party even caught the terrifying warlock, but he saw that the warlock was also in the team, which was really incredible.

Such a person deserves his respect.

Think about what he did before, when this warrior who was much younger than him was struggling to fight against the darkness, he was doing some childish and ridiculous things for some unnecessary personal emotions, and even dragged his feet behind.

Bernard felt very ashamed of what he had done, and even he despised what he had done. He was not worthy of Dai Wei, who was willing to let go of his figure and become a battle mage with the army regardless of hardships.

After a moment of silence, Bernard said, "Rowling, can we find a place to talk alone? Just the two of us."

Luo Lin glanced at Dai Wei who was beside him, who nodded to him and walked aside alone.

Luo Lin waved off the soldiers again, and then said, "Is it okay now?"

Bernard nodded, sighed softly, then managed to stand up, and bowed to Luo Lin with difficulty: "First of all, I want to thank you for saving me. You know, I thought I was going to rot in that cave .”

"It's a coincidence." Rollin didn't expect Bernard to be there at all.

"Hehe." Bernard smiled bitterly: "I know you are curious about why I am there. Let's put it this way, the reason why I was caught was because they wanted me to provide them with gold coins to spend."

Bernard didn't want to go into more details, his own childish behavior was really a stain on his life.

Rowling admired this guy a little bit. He probably knew the methods of the dark sect, which were very cruel. This can be seen from the tragic injury on Bernard's body.

On the contrary, this Bernard, such a pampered person, has been able to insist on not compromising, which is really tough.

"Your behavior of not yielding in the face of torture is admirable." Luo Lin sincerely appreciated.

But his admiration made Bernard even more ashamed. When he saw the dwarf Saledo, he knew that Rowling should have known what he did, but the other party didn't mention it at all, and his demeanor was also very sincere. There was no sign of sarcasm, which made Bernard feel even more ashamed.

He smiled awkwardly, and hurriedly changed the subject: "Don't mention these things, this is what I should do. What I want to ask is, what are you going to do with those crystals?"

"Of course it's handed over to the lord." Luo Lin said as a matter of course. If there were a large amount of gold coins hidden in the cave, he wouldn't mind embezzling some of them privately, but these spell crystals were useless to him, and if they were sold for money, they could easily be traced back to him, and the gains outweighed the losses.

Besides, Vianna will definitely win enough rewards for him after handing in these batches of crystals, so he doesn't need to worry about being ignorant of his credit.

Bernard shook his head, he said with a smile: "No, you don't need to hand in all of it, there's no need for it, this is your meritorious service, you earned it by working hard, you are entitled to get part of it as a reward, even if the lord knows, I don't blame you for it, it's the default rule in the military."

"There's another theory?" Luo Lin really didn't expect that he didn't understand these at all, and Dai Wei probably didn't understand these twists and turns, otherwise she would definitely explain it to him.

Bernard nodded: "In the army, it is acceptable to get two out of ten trophies. After returning to Vendome, I will unclog your joints, and then you can get three of them. "

"This..." Luo Lin was still a little uncomfortable. He used to be just a gamer. Although he later opened his own studio, gamers, whether they are professional or casual, are generally more honest. The complex unspoken rules between these human relationships are still a bit unfamiliar.

"Hehe" Bernard smiled kindly.

He thinks this is a common problem of people of low birth, who are either too upright, adorn themselves with high morals, or love money like their lives. No matter which one, their vision is narrow, but they don't know that the essence of the upper class is actually a vanity fair.

If it was before, Bernard would definitely sneer, but now, his mentality is much more tolerant. It is true that Luo Lin was born in a very low class and does not understand the rules of the upper class, but he also has many qualities that the upper class does not have. , he has a tenacious spirit, a keen mind, and a sincere quality, which are very rare.

"Young man, the upper class is not as noble as you think. It's also full of filth, but it's just an extra layer of glamor. If you don't take the magic crystals you paid, they will eventually reach the lord. There are only five shares at most, and it is better for you to take it yourself than to be cheap for other moths who enjoy it, even if it is exchanged for gold coins and distributed to soldiers, it is good."

One advantage of Rowling is that he is extremely adaptable. He never gets entangled. Once Bernard figured out the truth, he accepted it very naturally, and said with a smile, "Then I will trouble you."

"Hehe, it's good if you can figure it out. You have to know one thing, that is, the lord is not short of money, but what he lacks is talent, the kind of talent who can stand on his own." Bernard laughed again, he had already seen through this point, And he also knew that in the entire Vendome, there were not many people who could see through this point, not even the knight himself.

Thinking of the knight Ben, Bernard smiled again. There is no doubt that the knight is very powerful, but he is a rigid person. If nothing happens, then his current achievements are already the end of his life.

After such a comparison, Bernard suddenly felt that this Luo Lin was very good. If there was no matter about Dai Wei before, and he had no prejudice in his mind, then he and this person should become friends.

He also really needs a military figure with a strong force as a potential ally, thinking about it, he feels that he has to manage this relationship well.

He thought for a while, and then said: "I already have a general understanding of your mission this time. To be honest, you did a very good job. In Vendôme, there has been no such major event for more than ten years. Usually, What you have done this time is enough for the lord to confer a knight title on you."

Bernard's words moved Rowling's heart, and he vaguely understood what the other person meant. This person seemed to be showing favor to him.

He immediately seized the opportunity and said sincerely: "I don't quite understand these things."

Of course Bernard didn't mind explaining to him, he said with a smile: "In Vendôme, there are two kinds of jazz, one is honorary jazz, which is for someone who has made achievements in a certain field and has a reputation, such as artists. This kind of title doesn't mean much, it's just a glamorous status. The other is military service knight, also called lord, which is also your current situation. If you make meritorious service, you will be awarded a title, and this title will be matched A territory, a jazz collar. But this jazz still has two levels, the difference lies in whether it can be hereditary."

Hereditary, those that can be passed on to children and grandchildren are naturally a hundred times more precious than those that cannot be hereditary.

Having said that, Bernard looked at Rowling and said with a smile: "If you trust me and entrust this matter, including this batch of spell crystals, to me to operate, I can guarantee that your knight title will be preceded by ' Hereditary' prefix."

After finishing speaking, he stared at Luo Lin with burning eyes. He has the intention of making friends, but at the same time, he also needs to get to know Luo Lin thoroughly. If the other party is not worthy of him, then he will give up managing this relationship and just pay back the life-saving grace. .

When he heard of the hereditary title, Luo Lin's heart was already moved. He pondered for a while, considered the gains and losses, and after confirming that even if Bernard failed, he would not suffer a big loss, nodded and said: "Then I will trouble you."

Bernard laughed immediately, admiring the courage of this young soldier: "Hehe~ Aren't you afraid that I will swallow your things?"

Rowling also laughed: "I believe in the promise of a person who faces torture but never bows to the darkness."

The heart of the flattering Bernard was broken, he laughed: "Rowling, you will definitely get what you want, I promise."
