Chapter 6 Provocation
After all, Roddy was not a good man before traveling through time. Among the things he had done, there were many things that made people feel chilled in his heart. He successfully assassinated the president of the enemy camp guild alone, sneaked behind enemy lines and slaughtered a large number of middle-level officers, or completely broke up a guild that tried to chase him because of disagreement... He could do such things and could do them thoroughly.
However, at present, Roddy, who was squatting at the entrance of Nolan Village, finally made many plans in his heart. It has to be said that humans have indeed strong adaptability. After understanding the situation, he quickly adapted to his current role and made plans for everything he had to do next.
Of course, the so-called plan can probably be summed up in his heart into the following four sentences-
1. Find the little wizard who originally died in Mogra village, and... never let her leave again.
2. Let the orcs raised by the bitch die.
3. Let the undead raised by the bastard get out.
4. Let the traitor lords raised by those bitchess go and eat shit.
But Roddy thought about it and thought it would be better to have a full meal before doing this.
The treatment of the scout team is better than those bitter farmers. In Nolan Village, where most people basically don’t eat breakfast, the scouts are one of the few who have food in the morning. Although they are just some rough food, they are better than nothing. Roddy, who is used to eating boxed lunches or fast food at home, enduring hard and dark bread and tasteless ale, was wondering in his heart where to start his “revenge cause”. Before he finished eating, he heard someone calling him.
"Low...Rody, Captain Carter has just assigned a new task. The team sets off in two hours. The scope of this patrol has increased. The captain asked me to notify you just now."
"I know, those orcs will definitely not give up after they find that the corpse has no heads. They may encounter them today, so you are ready." Roddy originally wanted to nod, but when he thought it was not a game now, he immediately told these guys who were going to the battlefield to be careful - he knew that he was now a [Legion Soldier], so if he wanted to upgrade, he could only continue to follow the scout route in this organization and defect privately? Once the lord canceled his identity authentication, he might even disappear as the basic profession attribute, and it would not be fun at that time.
After a simple breakfast, the scout team needed to be reorganized into two teams due to the death of several members yesterday. In other words, the three scouts originally belonged to the first team will temporarily piece together the second team where Roddy is located and follow the mission. Deputy Captain Carter's attitude towards Roddy has already made a 180-degree turn, and the intention of taking care of him in words was not hidden. Seeing that the deputy captain's emblem on his chest became the full captain, Roddy did not regret yesterday's decision. After the whole team was finished, he came over alone and said politely: "Captain, can I see that horn bow? You know, if you encounter an orc again, that bow... may be better."
In the memory of "Lodi", Carter is a typical portrayal of the "soldier" of this era - discussing the gossip of the village woman in her spare time, lamenting a few words of the harvest of the fields, teasing the daughter of the tailor's family, and talking about dirty jokes with others. He has mediocre ability, no ambition, and is considered pure in character, and has a life of simultaneous life.
So when the position of "Captain" suddenly fell on his head, Carter himself was actually nervous and had little opinion. Hearing Roddy's request, he recalled the hole in the orc's head yesterday. His "official power" that had not been much immediately disappeared and immediately replied: "If you use it, just go to Dick's place to ask for it, and I said it was approved by me."
After saying that, he hesitated for a moment, took out a few copper coins without hesitation, looked around, and whispered: "This is my little reward. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have seen the sun today."
This is his pure nature. Carter, a villager-born, can only take out these copper coins. Seeing Roddy hesitate, he simply stuffed the copper coins into his hand, with only gratitude and sincerity between his eyebrows.
Roddy did not refuse in the end. In the memory of "Lodi", Carter, who always talked loudly, never showed such a side. He didn't have many copper coins in his hand, but it was not a small number for the scout's salary - perhaps it was because this battle really made him change a little.
They are all simple people... Roddy couldn't help but sigh.
After leaving, he did not think about these interpersonal relationships anymore. After all, the most important thing now is to have enough force to deal with everything that might happen next.
Looking at the orcs' rough horn bows, Roddy secretly lamented that these green-skinned savages were really wasteful of resources. The good materials were ruined to look like this. He looked up and narrowed his eyes and recalled his leveling experience here. After thinking for a moment, he walked towards the blacksmith shop on the east side of the village.
In the game, Roddy relies on his life as a deputy to support himself for a long time, and the "bow maker" and "skin making" are even more of the top level of the "grandmaster". So at this moment, he looked at the orc horn bow in his hand and knew how to improve its accuracy to the greatest extent - if needed, Roddy found that he could skillfully make skin and bow making... Moreover, the quality and quality of the things made in this way must be advanced.
This may be one of the few good news since his rebirth.
He was trying hard to adapt to this extremely real world in his head, and he kept coming to the front of the ding-dang blacksmith shop. The blacksmith Stan from Nolan Village knew Roddy and he was very happy to hear that he wanted to borrow tools. Not long after, Roddy removed the bow string, began to trim the bow shape, adjust the arrow nest on the bow string, and filed a smaller bow window. After completing all this in an hour, he carried the large horn bow and went to Dick of the Military Control Commission to ask for arrows.
Nolan Village is very small, and the lord can't stay here for three days a year, but as one of the most marginal villages here, no matter how calm it is, it will eventually face the threat of orcs. Roddy's eyes swept across the end of his vision - the other end of the endless grassland is the orcs' kingdom. I remember that these guys have always harassed the border of Karen Kingdom since the server was launched. Following the time, Roddy believes that the orcs will not go anywhere honestly at this moment. I guess robbery and other things will always happen in bad days.
How can I stop the orcs from being at level 1?
The goal was too big, but it was not an incompetent task for Roddy. He thought about it and came to a slightly dilapidated warehouse on the side of the village and stopped.
"Fifty arrows, Captain Carter said hello." Roddy looked humble and it was inevitable to have a good relationship with the quarantine officer. Although he had pulled Carter's skin, based on "Lodi's memory", Carter actually did not meet the quarantine officer very much, so he stretched out his hand and held three copper coins.
Quartermaster Dick is one of the few fat men in Nolan Village. When he saw the copper coins with a fat face, his originally frown immediately raised his brow and smiled: "Captain Carter? Today's mission is not simple. I heard that he killed six orcs yesterday... Tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk tsk
It's so fucking hypocritical. Roddy smiled and sighed in her heart.
"Captain Carter's swordsmanship is very powerful. Those orcs have no enemies in one gang. They are just waste..." Roddy felt that he seemed more hypocritical after saying that, but he had done such things a lot before, so he was not uncomfortable.
Dick turned around and worked for a while, and brought two bundles of arrows from the warehouse with an old aura. Roddy hurriedly went up to help with enthusiasm and asked in a low voice: "I have something else... Can you cut a piece of broken leather pieces from the old leather armor for me?"
"Skin-breaking pieces? It should be - no more." Dick raised his eyelids, his movements stopped, and he raised his back to look at him obliquely. Roddy cursed in his heart and smiled and took out two more copper coins. He didn't say anything, and stuffed them into the other party's hand.
"Well, maybe there is something left, maybe I'll go find it for you."
Dick was full of airs. Roddy couldn't figure out how to meet such a powerful quarantine officer in such a small village. Did the quarantine officer in the Knights of Hollier regard himself as a lord?
That being said, but he couldn't resist the fact that he was just a scout team member at the moment, so Roddy could only admit it secretly.
Not long after, Dick came back with a piece of cowhide the size of a palm and asked, "Is this OK?"
Roddy thanked quickly and took it and prepared to cut it himself.
It is because he needs a strong enough finger guard to pull the horn bow. The horn bow has a much larger pound than the scout's short bow, and the finger guards equipped with the scout are all simple thin cowhides. That kind of thing cannot withstand the power of the horn bow. If the finger guard is not strong enough during combat, it is estimated that no five arrows will be produced, and the paralysis and pain of the fingers will greatly affect the accuracy.
Finally found what he wanted, but as soon as he turned his head, Roddy almost hit a guy's chest head-on.
"What are the little guys doing here? When is it your turn to get things from the Military Control Commission?"
This scolding made Roddy raise his eyebrows. He glanced at the guy in front of him, and then remembered that this was the middle-aged strong man Ruger who had cursed at him last night. The other party was big and round, with a steady momentum. He always looked at people with a pair of triangular eyes. Perhaps it was because he was used to being scouts in the village. He never took a young man like Roddy seriously. At this time, he was too lazy to even look at Roddy.
In his memory of "Lodi", Ruger was the captain of the scout team and the most difficult veteran gangster in the entire Nolan village. He was good at archery and swordsmanship. Because he had experienced a war with orcs, he seemed arrogant and swaying in front of a group of juniors. Although his character was not bad, it was really annoying.
Quartermaster Dick also disliked Ruger, but he also knew that this guy was not easy to mess with, so he exchanged a few embarrassing greetings to try to get rid of the topic.
But Ruger waved his hand, "Don't fucking with me."
Ignoring Dick's embarrassing expression, his eyes moved to the corner bow in Roddy's hand, his eyes lit up and he was about to get it, but unexpectedly, Roddy raised his hand and let him catch it.
For Ruger, who had never been provoked, this action was like a fuse, instantly igniting his firecracker-like temper.
"The bastard raised by a bitch, is it against you? Can you still use the horn bow?"
Veteran Piluge is a veteran who is less than his and has a less experienced person, always speaks harshly, and pokes his fingers on Roddy's chest, "Tell you, a bastard like you are only suitable for hitting rabbits. I advise you to give me such things honestly."
The fingers poked on his chest and felt a little painful, but Roddy stood there and didn't move, but his eyes narrowed slightly.
Roddy's eyes stayed on the captain Ruger's emblem for a moment, thought for a moment, and then suddenly raised his head. At this moment, the vengeful ranger Roddy seemed to reappear from the distant space and time. Although he had no previous body and face, the cold momentum was clearly felt by even the quarantine Dick beside him.
Roddy looked into Ruger's eyes, and the kind of staring straight at a target: "If you can shoot with it more accurately than me, then I admit you."
In one sentence, the atmosphere on the scene suddenly became cold.
Dick, who also wanted to play the role of a good old man, immediately shook his head and stepped back tactfully. He understood that the matter was now... I'm afraid it would be impossible to be good.
Although he only killed thousands of enemies in the game, his long-term persistence and loneliness battle made Roddy feel a cold and intimidating momentum. Before he was reborn, he was not a superior like the president of thousands of guilds. The so-called "magnanimity" could not be said to be, but the postures he made inadvertently reveal some dangerous signals.
For the social group of humans, "going alone" always costs more. Roddy can survive alone on the sinister "breaking soil" continent and enter the first echelon of players all the way, which itself shows a lot of things...
A very important point is that the bloody battles he has experienced are far more cruel than those team battles with dozens or hundreds of people.
Ruger raised his hand and wanted to take away the horn bow, but at this moment, he suddenly became erected by Roddy's eyes. He was not a recruit, but had also gone to the battlefield to kill orcs, so he was very sensitive to this aura. For a moment, his steps even wanted to retreat.
But soon, he cursed in his heart, and straightened his chest as if he didn't believe in evil.
