The Witcher: Synthesis of Everything

Chapter 45 Jason

…

"Old village chief, I travel around the world. In addition to taking risks, I also collect legends and stories from various places."

"I'm going to change my career and write a travel novel. How about you take me to visit Captain Jason's house?"

"this……"

Lin Suo took out two more gold coins. This financial resource was consistent with his status as a young adventurer.

really.

This incident made old Jack confused again.

"Well, maybe we can have dinner at Captain Jason's house. He lives in Berg Village, which is further away. We should be able to arrive before sunset."

"Then thank you village chief."

"You're welcome."

The two of them had nothing to deal with. Old Jack took Lin Suo on a small road and headed towards Berg Village.

Lin Suo used urination as an excuse.

Looking for an opportunity, I summoned the Moonsaber and let it roam nearby to prevent it from being tricked by this old Biden.

Walk all the way down.

Over time, he learned more about the sahuagin.

According to old Jack.

About ten years ago, not long after they moved to Akita Village, they encountered a fish-man attack on the shore. At that time, there was no Captain Jason to solve the problem.

It was the fish people who retreated on their own.

Ten years is a very delicate period. According to Lin Suo's judgment, Silver Fish Village has been abandoned for about three to five years.

The best thing is.

Almost ten years ago, Whitebait Village was not called Whitebait Village until the specialty product of Whitebait came out, so the name was changed to attract passing rangers, adventurers, and caravans.

And the biography never mentioned anything about fishmen disturbing the shore.

The silverbait villagers are ordinary people, how can they deal with the sahuagin tribe who control the big sharks?

How can you avoid fishmen and catch whitebait aquatic products?

There are many doubts.

Lin Suo was always worried if he did not resolve the household registration matter. After all, in this world, only the Dandong Empire could give him a sense of intimacy. It seemed that he would stay here for a while longer.

At dusk.

An old man and a young man emerged from the path and arrived at Berg Village smoothly.

Berg Village is not like ordinary villages. It is larger in scale, with a total of 500 households, and has wooden walls.

The folk customs are simple and tough, and everyone is martial.

Almost all of the patrolling soldiers nearby came from Berg Village and practiced basic breathing techniques.

He also started as a knight squire.

Talents like Captain Jason are eligible to participate in the selection of the Golden Knights in the capital, and their minimum strength reaches the level of an intermediate knight.

Serving as a militia captain is a humiliation of talent.

With Old Jack, an acquaintance, showing the way, Lin Suo blended in naturally and followed the dirt road to twists and turns before arriving at Captain Jason's residence.

An ordinary two-story stone building.

Very simple and deserted.

At this point, it was during meal time. When the two arrived, Lin Suo was surprised to find that this middle-aged man who controlled extraordinary force was actually a bachelor.

The food was relatively simple, consisting of barbecued meats and scones, and the table was piled full of them, probably weighing more than twenty pounds.

Compared with his strength, this appetite can only be said to be average.

The food was not very good either.

After all, Dandong is a prosperous empire, and people have never had to worry about food. Except for evil wizards and the like, there are very few ordinary people who commit crimes. (Few, not none, don't fight)

Ordinary people can eat one or two meat meals a week.

With Jason's strength, if he joins the nobles as a retainer, he will not be short of fruits, cheese, roasted whole lamb, and fried steak.

Women also have a lot of rights.

It's not like this, nesting in a corner and spending the rest of your life.

"Captain Jason."

"Old Jack! Who is this?"

inside the house.

The two said hello and turned their attention to Lin Suo.

Lin Suo chuckled and introduced himself.

"Rhine Lin, an adventurer who aspires to be a writer, heard about the captain's deeds and planned to write it as an adventure story in a book. I believe it will be recognized and loved by children."

"What about, let's have a meal together?"

"good."

Although Lin Suo is stubborn, She Niu is a gifted person, and he can talk without any burden.

The three of them were eating and chatting.

Soon, Lin Suo found out that this Jason did not have a close relationship with Old Jack, but they were not familiar with each other because of their job.

Jason's story is quite unique. Old Jack's bringing him here should have nothing to do with the abandonment of Silver Fish Village.

Full of wine and food.

Old Jack left first, and Lin Suo used a contract to communicate with Moonsaber, asking Leopard to follow him closely.

He and Jason talked around the fireplace at night.

It can be seen that this captain is a generous guy, and he also has a common problem among men, he loves to brag.

After hearing what Lin Suo said, I wanted to write his story into a book.

It was so joyful that it made him talk non-stop.

After drinking too much, I will always say some very subjective "opinions", such as now:

"Rhine, don't look at the Golden Knights' glory. In fact, they are just a group of honor guards. They all have the strength of superior knights, but they don't want to make progress."

"Honor Guard?!"

After confirming that Jason had little relationship with Old Jack, Lin Suo started to think about recruiting. In the future, he would definitely focus on cultivation, and the industrial manor would need a certain amount of force to protect him.

He also wanted to know more about Jason's story.

To increase knowledge.

"Why do you say that?"

"Hey, old Jack must have told you about my past."

"I, Jack Wood, once went to the capital to participate in the selection of the Golden Knights, but they were kind and said that I didn't look like a knight and was not suitable to work in the Knights."

"It's just too much of a lie."

"Why do you need that fair and tender face to be a knight? It's not a choice...forget it, it looks like a guard of honor anyway. You don't have to kneel down when you see the wizard."

Lin Suo couldn't help but laugh out loud. Jason was dark, broad-shouldered and round-waisted, so naturally he didn't fit in with the aesthetics of aristocrats.

Just like in ancient China, becoming an official depends on appearance.

Even kings have the saying that they "don't look like human kings".

It can be seen that appearance is really the first impression when you judge people.

This is people's instinct to yearn for beautiful things. It cannot be wrong, but it is not entirely right.

After all the nonsense and bragging.

As the relationship between the two got closer, Lin Suo began to inquire about the Whitebait Village and the sahuagin disturbances on the shore.

Jason, who was originally drunk, suddenly woke up when he heard the words "Silver Fish Village".

She looked at him with complicated eyes.

Lin Suo had to smile bitterly and start acting.

"Captain Jason, we felt like old friends at first sight, and I won't hide anything from you."

"Actually... I'm from Silver Fish Village."

"What?!"

"Does old Jack know?"

Jason quickly ran to the window, took a look outside, and his expression became serious.

Pulling Lin Suo into the inner room, his voice became much quieter.

"Rhine, can you lie to me?"

"Never."

Lin Suo took out the household registration from his pocket without thinking, with a complicated tone.

"On this trip, I was originally going back to my hometown to visit relatives. When I was young, I went to live in another place due to some things. Now I am very puzzled to see my abandoned hometown when I come back."

Jason took a look at the household registration and breathed a sigh of relief.

"You shouldn't have come back."
