Chapter 94 Town Gathering
After leaving the Adventurer's Guild, Mu Hua came to Old Barron's tavern.
Today, the town held a town meeting here, and Old Morey asked Mu Hua if he wanted to participate. Mu Hua would naturally not refuse the first collective activity invited by the townspeople.
It is called a town meeting, but the gathering in the tavern is not so serious. It is just some old people in the town gathered together to discuss things related to the town.
The laying of the 375 courtyard ritual array, the launch of the reconnaissance satellite is also on the agenda, and the establishment of the Spring College branch, including the commercial area outside the town.
These will have a lot of impact on the lives of the townspeople.
Everyone gathered together to chat, and the main discussion was about how to avoid adverse effects on their original lives and how to get more benefits for the town.
Mu Hua has only been in Loren for a short time. He came here to pursue a new life, not to be a wandering lone traveler.
Although the improvement of his own strength is somewhat beyond expectations, Mu Hua does not mind integrating into the town.
In other words, in his opinion, it is also necessary to integrate here and become a citizen of the Magic Empire with a provenance.
There is a sign in front of the tavern that says "Closed Today". When the door is opened, it is a little noisy inside, and many people have gathered here.
Ivan, the farmer of Nigel Farm in the west of the town, Morey who runs a gun shop, Rita who runs a supermarket, Mark who runs a restaurant, Tim who runs a butcher shop, Sam who runs a fast food restaurant, etc.
Including the mayor of the town, Pete, and some townspeople who work in well-known companies, most of the people who attended the party are middle-aged and elderly people over 50 years old.
There are also three or four young people under the age of 30, and several cowboys accompanying the farmer Ivan. One of them is wearing a guard uniform, and there is noise from time to time in the communicator. I am afraid he has not finished get off work yet.
There is also a young man who actually wears a night hunter's shoulder badge.
"Get out, Vito, there is no place for you here!" Mu Hua just entered the tavern and heard the scolding of the farmer Ivan.
I saw that Vito, the gang leader who had been helped by Mu Hua to remove the curse earlier, seemed to want to attend the party, but the people here did not seem to welcome him.
Unlike Lanton, the gangsters in Lanton are actually quite respected by the people. When they meet some gangsters, many people will even be a little flattering when they meet them.
But in Loren, they are obviously not very popular.
Following the scolding, the two younger cowboys beside Ivan stood up, as if ready to fight Vito at any time.
"Man, you 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 and said to Mu Hua with his hands spread out as if he knew him.
Walking past Vito, Mu Hua ignored Vito's chat and passed by coldly, which made Vito, who was ignored, look even uglier.
After greeting a few people he knew in the tavern, Mu Hua came to Old Morey's table and sat next to him.
"Hey, Ivan, do you need me to help you throw him out?"
"Of course, Toby, you can't arrest me for casting spells." Mu Hua said to Ivan, who looked angry, and then looked at the young man in the guard uniform and smiled.
In the laws of most countries on Loren Star, offensive magic is not allowed outside the courtyard. The attack of summoned beasts is also included, but defensive magic is not restricted.
Another possibility is that the magician's hand can be used normally if it does not involve attack. This is a privilege that the arrogant magicians have fought for themselves.
"Hey, Mu, I can handle it." Nodding to Mu Hua, Ivan, like an old cowboy, glared at Vito again.
"You are not from the town. A bastard like you who leads young people astray is not qualified to sit here. Get out of here." Ivan scolded, and Mu Hua did not give Vito a good look.
A rubbish person should have the consciousness of a rubbish person. If he can be as arrogant as a dragon, he should also be able to adapt to being stepped on.
Before you find a backer who can give you a glamorous appearance, don't stand in front of normal people.
Mu Hua has some understanding of Vito's situation. Considering the things he usually does, it's really a bit confusing for him to appear here now.
Seeing that everyone stood on Ivan's side, Mayor Pete was impatient, Toby from the guard team was full of disgust, and Will, who joined the Night Hunters, put his hand on the sword at his waist.
"Humph!" Vito snorted coldly, trying to offset the embarrassment, and pushed the door to leave the tavern.
Vito's coming and going was just an episode that could be used as a topic at the party.
Except for Ivan's generous statement that if Vito dared to show up at his farm, he would send Vito to hell, everyone quickly put Vito's affairs behind them.
Although people like Vito can cause trouble, everyone has a gun in Loren.
If a fight really breaks out, ordinary people who abide by the law may be more dangerous than those guys on the road.
"Everyone, be quiet, be quiet for a while!" After everyone chatted for a while, Pete stood in the middle of the hall and raised his hand to ask all tables to be quiet.
"I've gathered everyone here today to talk about a few things."
"First, the Changfeng Group on Heyman's side wants to open a plantation in the north of the town. Let's discuss how many jobs and salaries they should provide."
"Second, the Spring Branch is about to open, and we need to get some scholarships for the young people in the town."
"Children from all families who have extraordinary potential should be recruited back. How many warriors are sent out by Spring every year? It's better to go to school than to hang around outside."
"Third, our courtyard will soon launch a reconnaissance satellite, and there should be a strategy team that will be interested in this place. The strategy team can bring a lot of economic benefits. The town may be able to add some fast food trucks. Let's see who wants to do this business."
"What about the lumberyard? Since the opening of the courtyard, the lumberyard business of the Gna family has been getting worse day by day." Pete said while counting on his fingers, and someone in the house asked.
"Pete, don't just talk nonsense, go and say hello to the garrison. Those who originally came to Bear Pig Town to purchase goods must give priority to purchasing wood from the town. If you can't do it, go down and let someone else be the mayor." When mentioning the lumberyard, someone shouted angrily.
"Chili gabble, chili gabble..."
As Pete brought up the topic for today, the pub became more and more noisy.
The four people sat around the wooden table, and everyone was either discussing with the table or standing up and speaking. After a while, although the topic did not deviate, everyone was arguing.
Among the things discussed, only the Springer branch had something to do with Mu Hua.
However, Mu Hua still didn't understand what his professorship was. It was not easy to interrupt, so he just chatted with the old Morey and others at the same table.
"Mu, aren't you a necromancer? Hillary said a few days ago that there were ghost disturbances in the west of the town at night. Can you go there when you have time?" Old Barron brought Mu Hua a large glass of beer and said to Mu Hua.
"Okay, as long as Will doesn't say that I'm stealing his job." Mu Hua said with a smile.
"Tsk, that kid needs to drink the psychic vision potion to hunt spirits, and the night hunters don't care about simple spirit disturbance phenomena." Old Morey said disdainfully.
"Okay, no need to bother, I'll let the ravens take a look." After taking a sip of iced beer, Mu Hua communicated with the blind ravens scattered outside the hotel.
Although the summoned beasts cannot move independently away from the summoner, the town area does not affect the activities of the ravens.
Usually Mu Hua scatters the ravens in the woods outside the hotel. Originally, he planned to let the ravens fly to the west of the town to take a look, but as soon as he started to share vision, Mu Hua's expression became inexplicably weird.
In the woods, fallen leaves, paths, and the woods outside the hotel, Deman's face was flushed. A hot girl, holding his arm, was walking with him into the depths of the woods.
The two behaved intimately, and the girl took Deman's arm to greet him intentionally. Wherever there were more trees and more grass, the two would go there. Look at Deman's smile, is he going to have a wild battle?
Mu Hua was indignant at Deman's bad behavior of messing around during working hours. Ten ravens hid among the trees and observed the two's actions from all directions.
