Chapter 34 There are always people living in the past
As time flies by, time has come to mid-autumn.
Hady became more and more worried about Sophie's safety.
It has been more than half a year.
Beginning to exceed the deadline she gave.
He wanted to find Sophie, but he didn't know the specific location of the Demon Realm. In the past, he only focused on making gold while playing games, so he didn't know much about this information.
The second thing is... his current strength is quite weak. If he really wants to go to the demon world, it will be a waste.
In fact, his feelings for Sophie were not deep. After all, the two of them only really got along for less than ten days.
It’s just a responsibility.
Hardy stood by the window. The leaves of several maple trees in the manor turned red, which looked very beautiful with the surrounding green plants.
Recently, his growth rate has begun to slow down, not as fast as before.
This is normal.
After the strength grows to a certain level, there will inevitably be a phenomenon.
Just like after a player reaches LV5, upgrading will require exponentially more experience points.
Hardy has no system. He estimates that he should be around LV6.
However, he believes that his panel value should be similar to the player's LV8, maybe a little stronger.
After all, the ability to transform into a Nightmare Knight has been greatly improved.
The next growth can only rely on hard work.
After reaching this level, Hardy started to envy the players.
Because players can gain a lot of level experience by completing tasks through the system.
The residents of this world can only improve their strength through daily exercise, study, or fighting.
The main reason is that this body started too late.
Like Ryan and Karina, the two of them began to practice their skills and magic at a very young age.
He sighed softly. According to the time, Ryan and Karina should almost start the 'epic mission'. When they complete that task, the two of them will be recognized as braves. , and the Holy Maiden.
As for myself, I will be a little noble from now on.
However, the growth of the Nightmare Knight is not worse than that of those two professions.
We can catch up with them slowly in the future.
While sighing, Lilian came.
She stood behind and whispered: "Master, please take a look at the invitation from the Minte family."
Hardy was a little strange at first, but then he guessed something.
He opened the invitation, read it, and said, "The messenger should still be down there. Go tell him that I will attend the appointment on time."
Lillian withdrew.
"What a troubled time." Hardy sighed.
In the evening, Hardy got into the carriage and headed to Minter's house.
As the bishop of the local Temple of Light, Abelon Minte is quite wealthy and has a relatively high status.
Although this is Hexi County, it is difficult for Virginia to control the bishop of the Temple of Light.
Of course... this does not mean that Abelon can act recklessly. No matter how strong the divine power is, it must be based on the secular foundation.
Hardy entered the Mint family's manor, and then saw the Mint couple in the main hall.
Abelon Minter, and Sissy Minter.
Hardy stepped forward and said with a smile: "Uncle Abelen, Aunt Sissi, long time no see."
"If Karina isn't at home, you won't want to come to the door, right?" Abelon came over and hugged Hadi, joking enthusiastically.
Hardy had no choice but to smile bitterly.
As for the fact that the original body madly 'licked' Karina, who among the reputable people in River City doesn't know about it. Sissi also came over and said with a smile: "Hardy, please visit us more often when you have time. My uncle and aunt also want to chat with you often."
Ha Dee nodded.
In fact, Hardy knew very well that Aunt Sissi was the only one who welcomed him as a guest. Abelon had never liked him very much.
It’s normal to think about it. Any father would like to have a boy, and he has been thinking about his daughter since she was twelve years old.
It was Hardy himself who didn’t like that little boy either!
After the two parties chatted for a while, they all sat down.
Because they are believers in the goddess of light, the Minte family’s diet is very normal, and there will never be any weird ingredients.
The main course was served, a variety of meat dishes and sweet wine.
Both sides are very particular about etiquette. They look at each other in a warm and friendly manner, but in fact, the three parties involved understand that the relationship between them is not as good as it seems.
When he was almost finished eating, Abelon wiped his mouth with a white silk scarf and said: "Hadi, thank you for the information you sent last month, otherwise we would be very passive."
< br>Hardy waved his hand: "Yes, after all, he and Karina are very good friends."
When the two elders heard this, they both smiled ambiguously.
In their view, Hardy has been manipulated by his daughter.
Abelon continued: "Listen, you are now a baron!"
Hardy nodded.
"The territory is over there with the mountain people. I heard that you also built a military camp." Abelon's voice was filled with a slight surprise: "How many soldiers have been recruited."
"More than two hundred people." Hardy said a number casually.
"That's enough."
Hardy looked slightly surprised.
Abelon said: "Lend the soldiers under your command to our Minte family for temporary use."
Huh?
After Hardy was stunned for a while, he asked: "Then what?"
Abelen was also stunned: "What happens next?"
"How to solve the logistics of mercenaries?" Hardy said matter-of-factly: "What are the expenses during the employment period? If there are casualties, what about the pensions? ? These all need to be discussed."
Abelon was stunned: "Wait, Hardy, by the way. It’s not good to talk about these substantive interests in your relationship with my daughter.”
“No, Uncle Abelon, please stop treating me like a child,” Hardy sighed: "My family's money didn't come from the strong wind."
This was so straightforward that Abelon suddenly felt embarrassed.
He still regarded Hardy as the licking dog before, and this was the order subconsciously.
But I didn’t expect that Hardy’s outlook on life is different now.
At this time, Sissi immediately said to the side: "Hardy, Uncle Abelon is just joking with you."
Hardy did not think that the other party was joking, Abelon Lun really wanted to prostitute other people's soldiers for free and use them for his own use.
Hardy chuckled: "I also think Uncle Abelon is joking. After all, he is a devout believer in light and would never do such a thing."
Abelon was very ashamed and wanted to get angry, but he couldn't find a 'point' to vent his anger.
The other party is no longer a child, but now a noble.
A nobleman with real military power.
Although the bishop has a high status, he may not be able to gain any benefits if he really makes a fuss.
Sissi sighed helplessly in her heart. In fact, she disagreed with her husband's plan from the beginning, but Abelon said forcefully: "Why pay so much when you can take advantage of him for nothing. ”
It's better now.
The little guy in front of me probably regards the two of them as enemies.
She smiled like a flower: "Hardy, let's talk about what price we need to pay if we need to borrow your army."
