Chapter 160: Ron's Small Task
The soldiers behind him immediately held their rifles and became alert, fearing that the monsters would come out of the hole.
But fortunately, what appeared before them were Dick and the three miners behind him.
Mrs. Amara smiled happily at Vanessa and said, "My baby, am I right?"
Vanessa nodded happily.
The soldiers escorted the three miners, and Dick came to the mother and daughter and explained:
"The remaining two miners have been eaten by the crab spiders as food."
He concealed the fact that he killed the miner because he didn't want to cause more trouble, and the three miners who were alive wanted to kill Dick before, and they were afraid that the punishment would be increased later, so they naturally didn't mention it.
"It's a blessing in disguise that you can rescue these three miners. Dick, is the problem inside completely solved?" Vanessa asked again.
Dick began to speak slowly, and finally concluded:
"I suggest you seal it up and stop mining, otherwise it might bring other dangers."
Mrs. Amara was silent for a while: "This mine has been mined for nearly 20 years, and there is not much silver in it.
"Anyway, there are two other silver veins, which are enough for the North. We will transfer all the miners later. Thank you for this time, Dick."
"You are so polite."
"By the way, Dick, can I ask you to do another commission?" Mrs. Amara said again.
"What commission?"
"I want to know whether Ron's child is lying. If he is not lying, I will give him freedom. "
Dick was silent and began to check the remaining energy points on the panel:
Kill crab spiders x14, get energy points x30;
Kill unborn crab spiders x70, get energy points x25;
Complete the task, get energy points x50;
Currently the total energy points are x105.
Then 100 energy points disappeared, leaving only 5 energy points, and the [Hypnosis Seal] was upgraded from novice level to proficient level.
[Hypnosis Seal] Proficient level: can hypnotize intelligent creatures for a short time, limited to the situation where the other party is unprepared, and the duration of hypnosis is negatively correlated with the other party's willpower.
"Okay, leave it to me." Dick smiled again.
"I knew you were worthy of your trust." Lady Amara looked approving.
"I have some more requests."
"Just say it." Lady Amara was a little surprised, but she still agreed.
"Ron should not have eaten yet?"
"No." Vanessa said, "No one has eaten yet, and they are all waiting for you to come back. "
"Then I suggest preparing a sumptuous meal for Ron. I want to talk to him. Of course, you have to be present, Madam Amara."
"Okay."
In the soldier's wooden house, Ron leaned over the table and ate voraciously.
He held a chicken leg in his left hand and a pie in his right hand, and devoured it.
Across from him, Dick and Madam Amara were sitting side by side and looking at him.
After eating for a while, Ron seemed to be choked by the pie and tried to pat his chest.
Seeing this, Dick came behind him and helped pat his back.
Ron took a breath and looked at Dick gratefully: "Thank you, Master Dick."
"Why are you polite? By the way, are you satisfied with this meal?" Dick said with a smile.
"Of course I am satisfied, and..." Ron looked at Madam Amara, "Madam also said that she would let me go free after I finish this meal. Is that true?"
"Of course it's true, kid. "Mrs. Amara on the opposite side smiled lovingly.
"Great, I'm finally free." Ron grinned and laughed, and anyone could see the joy at a glance.
In an instant, a translucent inverted triangle pattern flashed before his eyes.
Seeing Ron fall into hypnosis, Dick quickly said:
"Is everything you said at the cave entrance today true?"
"Really." Ron answered slowly with a dull look in his eyes.
Dick looked at Mrs. Amara, and they smiled at each other.
At the same time, a prompt came from the panel:
Complete the task and get energy points X5, and the current total energy points X10.
Forget it, a mosquito meat is meat no matter how small it is.
Dick comforted himself and looked at Ron again.
The young man's eyes have regained clarity, and he scratched his messy hair with his greasy hands, wondering: "What happened to me just now?"
"You're just too tired." Dick looked at him and smiled, "You should have a good rest for a while. "
Lady Amara spoke again: "Ron, does your hometown no longer exist?"
"Yes, ma'am, as I said before, I am the only one who survived." Ron's tone became low.
"What do you want to do after you are free?"
"I... am strong, I can do some heavy work after I get out."
"Alas! Poor child, you have been locked up here for 4 years. Even if you get out, you have never been exposed to many things and it is difficult to adapt to this society.
"Let me give you a suggestion, you can consider it."
"You say."
"Stay with me and be my castle guard. You will have food and shelter in the future, and a generous salary. How about it?"
"Ma'am, thank you." Ron cried after hearing this.
"Poor child, in fact, your imprisonment was caused by my husband's negligence.
"But who could have expected Brownie to lie about such a matter of life and death?
"But I have to tell you that you should not mention Brownie being the illegitimate son of Prince James, and you should not think about revenge against him, because it will bring about a fatal disaster, understand?" Lady Amara said seriously.
"I understand, I will definitely protect the lady and the lady in the future."
"Ron is a young man with a good foundation. It seems that he has not contracted any disease in the mine for so long. He just lost some weight. As long as he takes good care of himself and learns some fighting skills, he will definitely become an elite soldier.
"In this life, it is better to be healthy and free of disasters, eat well and sleep well, which is better than anything else. Ron, now you are also blessed by illness." Dick sighed.
"Dick, I have troubled you so many times today. When we return to the Bay of Falling, I will let the butler settle your commission. "
"No hurry, madam, I have another thing to ask."
"Just ask."
"In addition to the identity of a illegitimate child, does Brownie have other identity codes? "
Lady Amara said without hesitation:
"His apparent identity is the descendant of a minor noble who died in battle, but in fact he is also the deputy commander of the Dragon Knights, and the chief commander is Prince James. The Dragon Knights were established not long ago, so you probably don't know it yet."
"Madam, what is the relationship between Brownie and Duke Alex, the ruler of Changge Port?"
"They don't have much of a superior-subordinate relationship, but Duke Alex and Prince James have a good personal relationship." The lady said tactfully.
"Thank you."
"Dick, I don't know why you ask these questions, and I don't want to know, but I think you shouldn't cause trouble for Brownie unless it's absolutely necessary, otherwise your troubles will ensue."
"Thank you for your reminder, I know my limits."
