Chapter 1062 Suppressing the Psychosis
I really don't understand what the relationship between summoning puppets and building a house is, but since Yang Guo said there is, he must have a reason, and I can't ask.
After that, we spent a whole day hunting groundworms. Everyone was exhausted, but the effect was not significant. The main reason was that the groundworms were level eight monsters, and in our team, only Gordo and I had reached level eight. level, and the rest are either level six or level five.
Originally, such a combination was lucky to be able to survive a day on the seventeenth floor without incident. But not only did we survive, but none of us were even injured. This can already be called a miracle.
On the way back, I kept looking at Jackson's big shield, which made Jackson feel embarrassed.
Jackson said: "Xiaoyi, what do you think of my shield?"
I shook my head: "I don't have any opinion at all. I just think it's really awesome. It's really not only super defensive but also non-conductive. I really wonder if it's made of metal."
"Probably." Jackson glanced at the shield and said uncertainly: "Actually, when my father handed the shield to me, I asked a similar question, but he said that this shield was really genuine. Made of pure metal without any other materials.”
I nodded and said, "Didn't you ask your father who made this shield?"
"I asked, but he couldn't explain clearly. He just told me that this shield is passed down from generation to generation. I don't know how many generations have passed since it was passed to me."
I thought I could get the origin of the shield out of Jackson's mouth, but unexpectedly, he only knew a little bit about it. His father, who might actually know this history, was severely injured by monsters when he was very young. , died not long after coming back.
I feel sorry for this, not only for Jackson's tragic childhood, but also for the lost history of the Shield.
After that, I went to the palace to spar, and then went home with Emily.
As soon as I entered the house, I was pulled into the room by Barbara. I wondered: "What's wrong? Is something making you unhappy?"
"Huh!" Barbara pouted and puffed her cheeks, with 'I'm unhappy' written all over her face, but she didn't say a word.
"Has someone bullied you?" I asked tentatively.
"snort!"
"Oh, it seems not. Is it because the behavior of the nobles makes you feel uncomfortable?" I asked again.
"snort!"
"Oh, it doesn't seem to be the case. So what's the reason?"
Barbara hugged her arms and said displeasedly: "Because it's too noisy upstairs, it's so noisy!"
upstairs?
I seemed to understand something: "Is it the Queen's temporary office?"
"Well, that's it!" Barbara said angrily: "I didn't even take a good nap!"
"So that's it." I said to myself, but Barbara was dissatisfied.
"Looking at your nonchalant expression, don't you care about my feelings at all?" Barbara glared at me and said, "I am a member of the cat tribe, and naps are very important, no, very important!"
"Okay, okay, I understand what you mean." I reached out and stroked the top of Barbara's head and said, "But, Barbara, do you know why there is noisy upstairs?"
"Why?"
"Because the Queen and the others are discussing what official positions they should give us~"
I don't plan to hide this matter. She will know it sooner or later anyway. It's better to know it later than to know it early. At least she can be mentally prepared.
"Really?" Barbara's eyes lit up.
This catwoman has two characteristics, one is she loves money, and the other is she likes to feel like a bossy queen.
The first characteristic was present since childhood, but the second characteristic was discovered later in life. The source was the time when the elves assisted the leader of the team.
In Barbara's words, it feels great to be held by someone, like a queen.
Since then, this characteristic of hers has been out of control.
Therefore, when I mentioned the word "official", Barbara's angry face instantly changed into the happy expression of a child after getting a new toy.
"Shh, don't tell other people about this matter. If too many people know about it, the official appointment will be ruined!"
Barbara tilted her head, looking puzzled: "Why?"
"Don't ask why, just remember not to tell anyone else."
Barbara nodded solemnly.
Therefore, no matter how arrogant a girl is, as long as she has the right temper, she can always be coaxed to be happy.
While we were eating, I saw that the Elf Queen looked a little unnatural. I must have thought that the matter of granting us official titles was not progressing satisfactorily.
It's no wonder, as she and Elder Mai Sonoda said before, it has never happened since ancient times for foreigners to become elf officials.
To break the custom requires not only courage, but also rationality. For example, what benefits can I bring to the elves?
There is a saying that goes, there are no permanent friends or permanent enemies, only permanent interests.
In the face of interests, many things can be compromised, including customs.
This is also the reason why I asked the Elf Queen for an official position and a title - I can bring them benefits.
Of course, the benefits I bring will not be money, because elves are never short of money.
What the elves lack is the most advanced technology and the powerful power they have never mastered, and I have both of these things.
To be precise, it's not me who does it, but the group behind me.
Goblins have the most advanced technological power, and dwarves have the power to completely crush elves. In addition, I have a third trump card - the goblins.
The reason why I did not show these directly is mainly because of the proud nature of elves - the more proud a person is, the less they can suppress them forcefully, otherwise they will only encounter more violent resistance.
After eating and chatting for a while, everyone went back to their rooms to rest. Remy and I were the only two people left in the hall.
I originally wanted to sneak into Elder Mai Sonoda's house tonight to find out the situation, but I forgot that this little girl Remi was also sleeping in the hall with me.
I tried to coax Remi into the house to sleep, but to my surprise, this little girl had a stubborn temper and refused.
In desperation, I had to give up.
Just as he was about to lie down on the sofa and rest, he heard Remi whisper in his ear: "Xiao Yi, do you have something to do?"
I raised my eyebrows: "Why do you say that?"
Remy pointed at my brow: "Every time you have something on your mind, it always wrinkles here."
Hey, I didn’t expect that the little girl was quite observant.
"It's okay, go to sleep." I turned over and faced Remi with my back.
Little Loli was silent for a few seconds, and suddenly she put her little arms around my neck. She murmured: "Xiao Yi, my mother told me that if you have something to say, you have to say it out, and if you want to do it, you have to do it, otherwise you will hold it back. sickness."
I raised my eyebrows: "What kind of disease will it cause?"
"Uh" Remy thought for a while: "It seems to be a mental illness."
