Chapter 94: Town Gathering
Leaving the Adventurers’ Guild, Mu Hua came to Old Barron’s tavern.
Today the town held a town meeting here. Old Morey asked Mu Hua if he wanted to participate. This was the first time Mu Hua was invited to a group activity by people in the town. Naturally, Mu Hua would not refuse.
It is said to be a town meeting, but a party that can be held in a tavern is not that serious. It is a gathering of some old people in the town to discuss things related to the town.
The 375 courtyard ceremony array was laid, the launch of reconnaissance satellites was also put on the agenda, and a branch of Sprinkle Academy was established, including the commercial area outside the town.
These will have a lot of impact on the lives of the townspeople.
Everyone got together to fight, and the main discussion centered on how not to have a negative impact on their original lives and how to bring more benefits to the town.
Mu Hua came to Loren not long ago. He came here to pursue a new life, not to be a wandering loner.
Although his improvement in strength is somewhat beyond expectations, Mu Hua does not mind integrating into the small town.
In other words, in his opinion, it is necessary to integrate here and become a citizen of the Magic Empire with provenance.
There was a sign saying 'Closed Today' in front of the tavern. When the tavern door was opened, it was a bit noisy inside, with many people already gathered here.
Ivan, the farmer of Nigel Farm in the west of the town, Morey who opens the shop, Rita who runs the supermarket, Mark who runs the restaurant, Tim who runs the butcher shop, Sam who runs the fast food restaurant, etc.
Including the mayor of the town, Pete, and some townspeople who work in well-known companies, most of the attendees at the party were middle-aged and elderly people over fifty years old.
Among them are three or four young people under the age of thirty. A few cowboys are accompanying the farmer Ivan, one of whom is wearing a guard uniform. There are noises coming from the communicator from time to time. I'm afraid they haven't gotten off work yet. .
There is also a young man who actually carries the shoulder tag of the Night Hunter.
"Get out, Vito, there is no place for you here!" As soon as Mu Hua entered the tavern, he heard the farmer Alvin scolding him.
Vito, the gang leader who Mu Hua had helped him get rid of the curse earlier, seemed to also want to attend the party, but the people here did not seem to welcome him.
Unlike Lanton, gangsters are actually quite revered by the people in Lanton. When they meet some people involved in gangs, many people will even be a little flattering when they meet them.
But on Loren's side, it is obvious that they are not very popular.
Following the scolding, the two younger cowboys beside Alvin stood up, as if they were ready to fight Vito at any time.
"Man, as you can see, I just want to do something for the town." Vito's face was ugly. Mu Hua happened to come in. Vito looked at Mu Hua, spread his hands and said to Mu Hua as if he knew each other well.
Passing past Vito, Mu Hua ignored Vito's advances and walked past him indifferently, making the ignored Vito's face look even more ugly.
After greeting a few people he knew in the tavern, Mu Hua came to Old Morey's table and sat next to him.
"Hey, Alvin, do you need me to help you throw him out?"
"Of course, Toby, you can't arrest me for casting a spell." Mu Hua said with an angry look on his face When Ivan said that, he looked at the young man wearing a guard uniform and smiled.
According to the laws of most countries in Loren, offensive magic is not allowed outside the courtyard. Attacks from summoned beasts are also included, but defensive magic is not restricted.
It is also possible that the mage's hand can be used normally if it does not involve attacks. This is a privilege that the proud mages have fought for themselves.
“Oh, Mu, I can solve it.” Nodding towards Mu Hua, the old cowboy-like Ivan glared at Vito again.
"You are not from this town. A bastard like you who leads young people into mischief has no right to sit here. Get out of here."
Ai Wen scolded, but Mu Hua didn't respond. Vito looks good.
Garbage people should have the consciousness of garbage people, they should be able to be proud of themselves, and they should also be able to adapt to being stepped on.
Before you find a backer that can give you a bright coat, don’t blindly stand in front of people who are living a normal life. Mu Hua knew something about Vito's situation. Judging from the activities he usually did, it was a bit confusing to appear here now.
Seeing that everyone is siding with Ivan, Mayor Pete has an impatient look on his face, Toby from the police force has a look of disgust on his face, and Will, who has joined the Night Hunters, is even more... His hand was placed on the sword at his waist.
“Huh!” Vito snorted, trying to offset the embarrassment, opened the door and left the tavern.
Vito's coming and going was a topical episode at the party.
Everyone quickly forgot about Vito except for Ivan's heroic statement that if Vito dared to appear on his farm, he would send Vito to hell.
Although people like Vito can cause trouble, in Loren, everyone has a gun.
When it comes to fighting, ordinary people who abide by the law are probably more dangerous than the guys on their way.
"Just be quiet, please be quiet first!" After everyone chatted for a while, Peter stood in the middle of the hall and raised his hand to silence each table.
"I have gathered you here today to tell you a few things."
"First, the Changfeng Group on Haiman's side wants to develop a plantation in the north of the town. Let's discuss how much we want them to provide. Jobs and salaries. "
"Second, the Sprinkle branch is about to be completed and the school is about to open. We must secure some scholarship funds for the young people in the town."
"Every family. outside Children with extraordinary potential should be recruited as soon as possible. How many warriors does Sprinkle send out every year? It is better to go to school than to wander around outside."
"Third, our courtyard is about to start. We are about to launch a reconnaissance satellite. There should also be a strategy team that will be interested in this place. The strategy team can bring a lot of economic benefits. Maybe some food trucks can be added to the town. Let’s see who wants to make a living from this.”< br>
"What about the lumberyard? Ever since the garden was opened, the business of the Gurner family's lumberyard has been getting worse day by day." After Pete finished speaking with his fingers, someone in the room asked.
"Peter, don't just talk about useless things, go and say hello to the garrison. Those who originally came to Bear and Pig Town to purchase wood must give priority to purchasing wood from the town. If not, you can go down and let someone else be the mayor. "When the lumberyard was mentioned, someone shouted angrily.
"Chirping, chirping, chirping..."
As Pete brought the topics prepared for today to the table, the tavern became more and more noisy.
Four people sit around a wooden table. They are either discussing at the same table or standing up to raise their voices. After a while, although the topic did not deviate, everyone was noisy and so on.
Among the things that were being discussed, the Sprinkle branch had something to do with Mu Hua.
But Mu Hua still hasn’t figured out what his identity as a professor is. It was not easy to interrupt, so I just started chatting with Old Morey and the others at the same table.
"Mu, aren't you a necromancer? A few days ago, Hillary said that there is a disturbing phenomenon in the west of the town at night. Can you go there and have a look when you have time?" Old Barron served Mu Hua. A large glass of wheat beer and said to Mu Hua.
"Okay, as long as Will doesn't say that I'm taking his job." Mu Hua said with a smile.
“Tsk, that little spirit hunter wants to drink the potion of spiritual vision, and the night hunter doesn’t care about simple disturbing phenomena.” Old Morey said with disdain.
"Okay, don't bother. I'll just let the raven take a look." Mu Hua took a sip of cold beer and spoke to the blind ravens scattered outside the hotel.
Although summoned beasts cannot move independently away from the summoner, the town does not affect the activities of the ravens.
Mu Hua usually scattered the ravens in the woods outside the hotel. Originally, he planned to let the raven fly to the west side of the town to have a look, but as soon as he started visual sharing, Mu Hua's expression became inexplicably weird.
Woods, fallen leaves, paths, in the woods outside the hotel, Deman's face was flushed. A hot girl held his arm and was walking deep into the woods with him.
The two behaved intimately, and the girl held Deman's arm to welcome him. They went wherever there were trees and grass. Look at Deman's smile. Is this going to be a wild battle?
Mu Hua expressed his indignation at Deman's bad behavior during working hours. Ten ravens hid among the trees and observed the two men's actions from all directions.
