Chapter 31 Feeding the Giant with Gold Coins
Russell has never been an open-minded person, not in his previous life, and certainly not in this life.
“Sir, what do you want to do?” Charles didn’t know when he had quietly changed his title and no longer called Russell by his first name.
Eric frowned and said, “This person is cunning and difficult to conquer.”
“Why do you want to subdue and lure the snow ghost to invade my manor? He has given me enough reasons to kill him.” Russell said solemnly, “Two teachers, and Knight Commander Chris, what I am thinking about now is how to kill him Killed.”
Lone Wolf Lisbon has committed his worst crime.
Lure the snow ghosts into invading and neglect the property of the manor and the personal safety of the serfs. This is the way to die.
“It’s also not easy to kill him.” Knight Commander Chris said, “If he dares to show up, I can help Master Russell kill him, but this man is cunning. If he hides in the cave and cannot come out, it will be difficult to find him. ”
The caves surrounding the Youguang River Valley are connected in all directions through secret passages, and the scope may be larger than the entire Youguang River Valley.
Once someone is hiding in it, trying to catch him is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
“So difficult?”
“It should be easy if the Baron takes action to put pressure on the burrow forces and sends a team of knights to block the road.”
“Forget it, if I have to trouble my father to take action on this matter, what qualifications do I have to manage the manor and fiefdom.” Russell quickly rejected the strategy of asking the baron to take action. Troubling the baron with everything would only lower his reputation.
A good lord can recruit good followers in the future.
Knight Commander Chris smiled: “If you need anything, please give me your instructions.”
Russell thanked him and said, “I will bother you again when it is absolutely necessary… Okay, let’s not talk about this disappointing thing in advance. Let’s continue to celebrate!”
The celebration did not last into the night.
In the afternoon, Knight Commander Chris said goodbye and left, riding the Nightmare Ghost Horse and disappearing on Cinder Avenue. After all, he is the knight captain of the castle guard, not Russell’s knight captain. Being off duty for a long time will obviously make the baron dissatisfied.
“Sir, do you really want to kill the lone wolf Lisbon?” Charles took the initiative to mention what he had not finished talking about before.
“certainly.”
“If you really want to kill Lisbon, I think the Wildcat Sisters are the key. Maybe you can use the Wildcat Sisters to lure Lisbon out.”
“Don’t be anxious now. This matter can be discussed in the long term.” Russell has calmed down. “Lisbon must be killed. If I don’t kill him, I won’t be clear-minded. But killing him will not prevent me from conquering the Xiangshui River Caves, so I must have a complete plan.”
Eric suddenly said: “Sir, let me sneak into the Xiangshui River Cave and find out the situation first.”
“No, there’s no need to take such risks.”
“That……”
“Wait for the Wild Cat Sisters to come over.” Russell smiled slightly. He had already shown his strength. Next, let’s see if he can attract butterflies.
Charles wondered: “Will the Wildcat Sisters come? Catherine didn’t say she would come again before she left?”
“If it was unintentional, she wouldn’t have come to deliver the letter on a rainy night. Since she was willing to befriend me, she would naturally choose to befriend me when I was weak.” Russell felt that he was 70% to 80% sure that he could guess what the wildcat sisters were thinking, ” You say so, Teacher Charles.”
Charles sighed in admiration: “My lord, you are becoming more and more like a baron.”
“That’s too much praise. I’m still learning from my father.”
“The dragon is watching, I believe that you will soon be better than others, sir. The fluorescent mushroom family will flourish in your hands.”
“That’s my big brother’s job.”
“But you can create a new business. Black-waisted Snake Manor is too small for you. This is just the starting point for your take-off.”
“Well, that’s true. Teacher Charles and Teacher Eric, let’s work hard for it together.”
Charles bowed and saluted: “Follow your Lordship’s footsteps!”
On the side, looking at Charles who was trying to flatter him, Eric tried his best to resist the thought of rolling his eyes, then he hammered his chest hard, and said in a muffled voice: “Follow in your footsteps!”
night.
Russell continued to sleep in the manor’s courtyard.
“Gah!”
Familiar dark dreamland, familiar little dream dragon.
“What are we, ice cream? Are we destined to only meet in dreams?” Russell raised a new question.
But Little Menglong couldn’t understand it. He just quacked and carried Russell in circles around the outline of the manor courtyard.
“Oh, it’s in vain to ask, you are just a fool.” Russell raised his middle finger.
Little Menglong found it interesting, and waved his tiny forelimbs, raising one of his little match-like paws: “Quack, quack, quack!”
“Stop it, go take a look at my bedroom and see how the ice beads glow.”
One person and one dragon returned to Russell’s bedroom. In addition to the dark gold ceramic armor, the green ceramic sword, two small pearls, and the light of the gemstone lamp, you could also see the drawer of the bedside table emitting a faint blue light.
The light gathered into a cluster, which was obviously emitted by the ice graupel beads.
Seeing this cluster of light, before Russell could understand it, Little Menglong suddenly shouted loudly: “Ga! Ga! Ga!”
“What, you want it?”
“Gah!”
Russell was surprised. He rarely saw such a violent reaction from Little Menglong, so he immediately waved his hand: “If you want it, take it!”
The next moment, I saw Little Menglong plunge into the drawer. For dark dreams, except for magical creations that can glow, any object is illusory, so Little Menglong went directly through the drawer and put his head against the ice. In front of the beads.
He opened his mouth, rolled his tongue, and swallowed the ice beads.
Then.
He also burped comfortably: “Gah…”
“You can actually eat things in a dark dream?” Russell was very surprised, and then he also tried to touch the green ceramic sword.
Unfortunately, his arm passed through the light of the green ceramic sword and could not touch the entity.
This is the same as previous experimental results.
“Snow cream, come here, can you get this green ceramic sword?” Russell patted the little Menglong’s head and guided it to get the green ceramic sword.
Little Menglong didn’t know why, but he was knowledgeable and stretched out his paw to grab a green ceramic sword.
However, the result was the same as Russell’s before. Its claws passed through the light of the green ceramic sword and failed to touch the entity.
“Huh?” Russell couldn’t understand this.
He thought carefully: “Although the dark dream is an illusion formed by referring to reality, the ice cream does have the ability to interact with reality through the dark dream… Before, it breathed out birch worms, which was an interaction. Now it swallows ice slug beads, It’s also an interaction.”
It’s just that the number of interactions was too small, so Russell couldn’t judge what behavior belonged to the category of interaction.
“Forget it, let’s go back and explore slowly.”
The days are still long, and Russell has enough time to unravel the mystery of the dark dream.
He looked at Little Menglong carefully: “After eating ice slug beads, I don’t feel any change in you… Tsk, tsk, I’m so luxurious now, I started feeding the dragon with gold coins.”
Ice beads are gold coins.
Most serfs may have never seen what gold coins look like in their lives. Silver coins and copper plates are enough to meet their daily needs.
“Take off, walk around for a while and then we’ll sleep.” Russell rode the little Menglong and started wandering around the streets again.
However, after flying for a while, he discovered something was wrong: “Snow cream, is the Dark Dream a little bigger? Before, only a small half of the tree was in the Dark Dream, but now, more than half of it is in the Dark Dream!”
