293. Chapter 293 Top Hat


As an eighth-level Holy Light Knight, Lina's perception ability is certainly not bad.

Although Xu Lai's movements were hidden, she was still aware of them. However, due to the character of the paladin, she just frowned.

Xu Lai didn't know that his little move was noticed. It was indeed the first time for him to see such a high-level female knight.

Whether it was Pierce and his knights, or the knights recruited by Xu Lai himself, not a single female knight was seen.

The women Xu Lai saw the most were all in the shooter's team.

Of course, he himself had advanced a few from female farmers, but they were all advanced heroes.

It's not that Xu Lai doesn't want female knights, but that he lacks enough trust in female knights. At least they are born with several points less strength than male knights.

"Several of you have also seen it. I still have something to do. Can you wait until I finish handling the matter before coming back?"

The mayor and the sheriff of Greenwood Town, who were accompanying me, both stood up and said to Xu Lai:

"Xu Yingxiong, you may not know the identity of Mr. Daniel yet, he is"

The two were eager to explain to Xu Lai. They did not dare to offend Xu Lai, but they were also afraid that Xu Lai would offend the archbishop of the temple and get involved with them.

No matter how powerful Xu Lai is, he is just a passerby. He is the person in charge of the temple in this area.

However, before they could finish speaking, Daniel smiled and said first: "Your Excellency, the Knight, is busy with something, so it doesn't matter if we wait a little longer."

Speaking of which, it was Xu Lai. It's rude, after all, others seem to have been waiting for him for a long time, and his status is extremely high.

Daniel will not say it. Although the 7th level archbishop is not as good as the 8th level, there are not too many even in the temple.

Even if it's just Lina, as the leader of the Sixth Knights of the temple, Xu Lai should take it seriously.

But Xu Lai did it on purpose. He had just brought a group of heroes into town, so it would not be good to just let them go.

Secondly, this was a deliberate test on his part, and as expected, his guess was correct.

Sighing silently in his heart, Xu Lai turned around and left without talking nonsense.

His ears are sensitive. After all, his constitution is already 40 points, and the functions of various organs are astonishingly good.

Even after leaving the meeting hall, you can still clearly hear the mayor's explanations for Xu Lai.

On the contrary, the archbishop named Daniel kept comforting the other party.

As the saying goes, when you are polite to others, you must ask for something. Xu Lai deliberately behaved arrogantly, and he could hold it back given the other party's status. The thing he asked for was probably not small.

There were suddenly two such people in Green Forest Town, and Xu Lai was no longer in the mood to do business.

However, he still asked Yan Feng to go to his temporary camp, call Yu Lan, and specifically told him to let Elwe hide.

Xu Lai not only knew the taboos of the empire, but also the taboos of the temple.

Otherwise, the empire has fallen apart. Even if four more empires are established, other ambitious nobles will not give up their hands on the angels easily.

The Grand Duke of Rotania secretly hoarded the Gryphon Treasure House just for the angels inside.

Xu Lai was worried that these two people came to him to ask for Elvi and the others.

If it were an ordinary angel, or even an archangel, as long as the compensation from the temple was in place, Xu Lai would not be able to bear the pain and give up.

But Elvie, absolutely not, there is no need to apply for any conditions, otherwise he will fall out.

Without Yan Feng coming back, Xu Lai had no intention of doing anything else.

But who knows if those two people were really just two people, so Xu Lai cheered up and asked people in Green Forest Town to temporarily borrow a few stalls in the market.

Xu Lai brought the materials and equipment seized from Fiona, low-level magic equipment, and some rare resources that he did not use, such as a relatively large number of crystals, mercury, etc.

All these things were taken out and placed one by one on the stall, allowing them to choose freely.

Silver Wing and his elf brothers were pulled over by Xu Lai to manage the stall and settle accounts.

Who makes these smart people flexible and knowledgeable? They can do a little bit of everything.

The equipment Xu Lai displayed was of a very high level. Even the demon who had plundered a large amount of wealth was not rich enough to equip low-level soldiers with large quantities of equipment.

Devils pursue elite strategies even more than humans. In their eyes, being weak is the original sin, and they deserve to be bullied. Otherwise, the pig-raising tactic of deliberately sending one to death would not have been born.

Therefore, what Xu Lai put out, even if it is a whiteboard, has pretty good attributes because of its high level.

Armor-type defense, generally the body defense is above 50 points, and the attack power of weapons is about the same.

In addition, due to the size of the equipment, the price Xu Lai gave was not high, similar to the prices previously sold in Stone Castle.

You must know that the equipment at that time came from horse thieves and thieves, and they were all level 3 or 4.

There are very few of these at level 3, and most of them are level 5 or 6 equipment.

Magic equipment is naturally more expensive than ordinary equipment. How much more expensive depends on the additional attributes and the location of the equipment.

The more common armors, weapons, etc., have a lower price increase. Relatively rare boots, helmets, gloves, etc. will cost a little more.

The most rare jewelry types, such as amulets, necklaces, rings, earrings, etc., are all two or three times the price of equipment with the same attribute.

Don’t be too expensive. Xu Lai had already broken his bones in order to quickly recover his money. Didn’t you see that these people were all grabbing it like crazy? They almost started fighting again.

The best thing here is just an amulet that adds 50 points of life.

It was this amulet that several people bid among themselves, and they actually raised the price from Xu Lai's original price of 1,000 gold coins to 5,000 gold coins.

Of course, there may be a bit of anger in this, but it also shows the preciousness of life-increasing items.

It’s no wonder that even a big shot like Count Ani wants to buy a talisman from the temple that only adds 60 points of health. This thing is really not an ordinary best-seller.

These heroes are indeed what Xu Lai thought.

Although they have been suppressed, everyone seems to be relatively wealthy.

Originally, Xu Lai thought that the most they could buy was one set of equipment for himself and his generals, and two sets per person would only sell 60 sets at most.

Unexpectedly, the least one of them bought three sets, and the one with the most bought ten sets.

And he also said that the equipment cannot be used immediately after buying it. He wants to fuse them all and equip twenty people.

Xu Lai asked him if there were so many people. He said that he ran a village and he wanted to arm everyone in the village.

Xu Lai was speechless and told him that after farmers put on high-load equipment, they might not even be able to work.

But the man said that of course they didn't need to wear them when working, they would only wear them when wild monsters attacked the village.

He said that each of these farmers was relocated after he had done countless tasks, but he could not bear to let them make mistakes.

No wonder they say that sunk cost is the biggest cost. Xu Lai didn't spend much time or thought on recruiting civilians, so he didn't care whether the civilians stayed or went.

If it were these people who had rescued the farmers who were kidnapped by the demons, there would be no chance for them to choose freely. At least they would have to be taken back to their villages first.

But it’s a good thing that they are willing to spend. A set of these whiteboards costs hundreds of gold coins. A high-end set like the one they use costs thousands.

Not counting the magic equipment, Xu Lai could earn nearly 90,000 gold coins from these more than 30 heroes.

If you include crystals, mercury and low-level magic equipment, Xu Lai would have earned at least hundreds of thousands of gold.

Of course, this was all a thing of the past. By the time Yinyi and the others handed over the gold coins that had been calculated and settled to Xu Lai, he had already lost interest.

The reason is naturally closely related to the two people from the temple.

After Xu Lai waited for Yu Lan and confirmed from Yan Feng that Elvi had honestly taken her angels and hid in a tent, Xu Lai returned to Went back to find those two people.

Xu Lai came back in the afternoon, and so far he hasn't even had a good bite of food.

But it is said that these two people were also sitting here, waiting for him for several hours.

Out of politeness, Xu Lai didn't care about himself. He returned to the meeting hall and drank two cups of tea in a hurry before asking about business.

"You two are waiting for me here. You must have something to do with me."

One of these two people is level 7 and the other is level 8. Logically speaking, they should be at level 8. It is only right that Lina of the first level should take the lead.

However, from the beginning to the end, the female knight did not speak much. Daniel was always speaking.

"Dear Honorable Knight, we are here to ask for your help."

As soon as he heard this, Xu Lai felt an inexplicable headache.

He stared at the other person closely, until Daniel felt a little embarrassed, then he spoke again:

"Please tell me directly, by the way, how did you know that I was here? Did you come here specifically to find me?”

"It's the Grand Duke of Rotania. He came to us and said he wanted to inquire about a person who was protected by the God of War and could not be divined.

Maybe you don't know that there are several honorary knights in our temple, but the God of War You are the only one who can protect me."

Xu Lai felt inexplicably guilty and couldn't help asking: "What is this Grand Duke of Rotania asking me for? I don't even know who he is. I know, and I have never seen this Grand Duke.”

Daniel said with a half-smile: “Who knew, you are a person who is protected by even the War God Temple, and the Grand Duke of Rotania actually wants to come from our temple. Got the news."

Xu Lai scratched his head and said helplessly: "Well, I don't know why the God of War wants to protect me. I'm just an ordinary person."

Daniel said again: "You are so humble, why would the God of War spend his divine power to protect an ordinary person.

If the commander of the Eighth Knights of the Hall of War is just an ordinary person, then who is the one who does not What about ordinary ones?"

Xu Lai narrowed his eyes, stared at Daniel and said, "That's just a temporary measure when the orcs invade."

Daniel nodded: "Of course, but. You are the only hero who has followed the knights since the arrival of the heroes.

You are also the only legion leader recognized by all the members of the knights, including Pierce, the captain of the eighth knights." (End of chapter)
