My summons are weird

Shalem raised her hand, and the taupe owl landed lightly, the magic power surged, and the message began to play.

Emperor Solon was scheduled to arrive at Civita in fifteen days. At this time, the lords of the surrounding areas of Civita had gathered to help maintain law and order.

Except for Royer and Shalem among the six pillars, all of them had arrived ahead of schedule.

Royer looked into the distance and was silent for a long time, then took Shalem's hand and walked towards the opposite direction of Civita City.

"Aren't you going?"

"Go, but I don't want to appear in front of them right now... Fifteen days, dealing with those lords and princes is very troublesome." Royer said, "Find a place with a lot of prey to rest for a few days."

Shalem didn't object. Both she and Royer were outliers among the six pillars, and they didn't fit in well.

It is far easier to deal with monsters and beasts than with people.

Royer chopped off the head of a bull-shaped monster with thick brown and long hair. He skillfully skinned and bled the monster, laughing while he was busy: "Warren and Waller did this better. When they caught the prey, their hands flew over the prey, and they cleaned it up in a short while...Compared to...what I did was really too crude."

The bloody beef was placed on top of the bonfire, and the dripping blood made the fireworks extra-plenty, and the sleepy Xia Leimu was so smoked that he couldn't stop coughing.

In the past, she and Luo Ye solved their food and clothing in the same way in the wild, and never felt that there was a problem, but after being educated by Lu Yu...

Shalem stared blankly for a long time at the black spots and dry appearance on the barbecue.

"It seems that without Lu Yu, they roast well..."

Both of them are pure adventurers. They know that there is no way to force anything in the wild. They have always eaten whatever they have, regardless of the taste, but...

Royer took a bite, and the meat was dry and woody, tasteless.

"Lu Yu will bring some seasonings with him when he travels... Let's bring them too in the future."

"Yes..."

"I try to match Lu Yu's level as much as possible."

"Please work harder."

The rustling sound in the distance made Xia Leim stand up, her eyes passed through the obstacle, and the surge of magic power instantly outlined the outline of the peeping person in the distance.

After Shalem left the bonfire and made sure that the wind she had blown would not extinguish the flames of the barbecue, she rode the wind. When she came back, there was already a shivering squirrel girl with a dirty face beside her.

With a very high proportion of human blood, she is slightly taller than Lulu, and she looks only eleven or twelve years old. The squirrelman's iconic fluffy tail is a little bald, and the only remaining fur looks like dandelion pompoms. It will come off when you blow it. The hair on the ears is also sparse, only three or two clumps are left swaying in the wind, which is very pitiful.

Royer put down the barbecue in his hand: "You have been peeking at us for a long time."

After a short period of panic, the girl's gaze stayed on the two-thirds of the monster's body that was still left, and the movement of swallowing saliva let the two of them know her intentions.

"want to?"

The girl's mud-stained face showed hesitation. She was afraid of Sharem who caught her casually, and subconsciously backed away, but hunger finally made her let go of everything...

"Can... let me have a bite?"

Royer handed over the barbecue with a bite in his hand.

The girl started to bite fiercely, there was nothing to eat at all, she was like a wild beast at this time, her eyes even glowed green when she bit.

Shalem didn't hesitate, and handed over the copy in her hand.

The girl ate the food in her hand, her eyes still staring at the corpse of the dead monster.

Eating too fast, the girl choked. With a flushed face, she waited for Shalem's water bottle. After taking a big gulp, the girl let out a long sigh of relief.

Seeing Royer and Shalem staring at her, the girl chewed a lot less.

Royer cut some pieces of meat from the monster as food for the next few days, and then gave the rest to the girl.

"Are you adventurers..." the girl asked hesitantly.

"My name is Royer, she is Sharem, we are indeed adventurers... Do you seem to want to entrust something?"

The girl's eyes lit up: "Are you guys very good?"

"Comparatively speaking, our strength is not bad." Royer asked, "Would you like to hear your name and your client?"

The girl hesitated for a while: "They all call me Muddy Tail... Some people call me Little Muddy... A terrible monster came near our village, and many people have been bitten to death... Do you charge a high price? "

"It depends on the strength of the monster, can you describe the details?"

Little Mud shook his head crazily: "People in the village may know... Our village is relatively poor, so is your asking price high..."

The little mud who asked the price for the second time was very disturbed, and his voice became smaller and smaller.

"Take me to have a look, maybe the other party is not some great monster, easy to deal with?" Royer smiled and patted Little Muddy's head, and offered to cut up the monster's meat for her, and carried it on his back.

Walking in the forest covered with fallen leaves, Little Mud did mental construction for Royer several times on the way.

"We're really poor... Please don't be angry if you can't pay what you want."

Royer repeatedly assured that he still couldn't make Little Mud feel at ease, so he had to change the subject.

"It's not too far from Civita City. There are monsters in the village. Can't you ask the city lord's guard to deal with it? Is the adventurer's association in the city not working? No adventurers come here?"

Little Muddy heard Civita tremble, and Shalem glanced at Royer after feeling her strong uneasiness.

Little Mud lowered his head and said, "We...don't dare to ask for commissions."

"Because you are squirrel people?"

"..."

"The new lord has exempted taxes, distributed a lot of relief food, raised the status of the squirrel people, pardoned a large number of slaves, and bought back the crops produced in the next two years at a high price... He is not bad. You should To issue a commission."

Little Mud still lowered his head: "Many people died..."

Royer knew she was talking about the Civita rebellion, and he didn't know how to respond to this heavy topic.

Shalem emphasized with a smile: "The relief food is free, try to get it. I heard that the vacant land nearby is first come, first served, and only distributed to squirrel people."

"I used to say that too."

Royer sighed in his heart, feeling more exhausted than hunting high-level monsters.

The village Xiaonibakou mentioned was a dozen dilapidated wooden houses deep in the forest. During the daytime, all the young and middle-aged men in the village were out hunting, and there were only old and weak women and children in the village.

Finding that Little Muddy had brought strangers back, and they were humans, many squirrelmen quickly returned to the house, took out sticks and pitchforks, and nervously aimed at Royer and Shalem.

Little Mud hurriedly yelled: "No, no, they are adventurers... they came for that terrifying monster."

"Look, look, this is the food they gave me... They shouldn't be malicious..."

Little Mud's mother rushed out and held her in her arms.

Royer and Shalem threw the food on the ground: "I'm only interested in that monster... I don't need money, just a little, and all the materials belong to me."

Hearing this, the squirrel-man villagers looked at each other like frightened birds, and slowly lowered the weapon aimed at Royer.

Someone tentatively asked, "Is it true that you don't want money?"

Royer repeated: "No money is required, but all the materials must belong to me. Now someone will describe the appearance of that monster to me."

Seeing that the villagers put down their guard, Little Mud's mother hesitated and said, "My husband has seen it, but he's still hunting outside..."

"It's okay, I can wait."

The pieces of meat were evenly distributed to every household in the village, and the free meat made everyone smile, and soon the village was filled with the smell of meat.

Little Mud's house was leaking everywhere, and it was extremely simple, which made Royer suspect that there would be no way to live in the room when it rained.

"Sorry...we don't have tea or pastries...here are some pine nuts we collected, please enjoy." Little Mud's mother offered a small handful of pine nuts with trembling hands.

Royer didn't go to get it. He could guess that it was the only food the family had.

If it weren't for the unbearable hunger, how could the little muddy who is very wary of humans peek at them eating and would not leave.

"Are you guys fleeing and hiding here?"

Little Muddy's mother said: "I am a pure-blooded squirrelman, and Little Muddy's father is an ordinary human being... There is still a glimmer of hope in our identities to survive in Civita. Those who really fled have left Civita, but I've heard that after the arrival of the new lord, some squirrelmen ran back and waited and watched near the border..."

"Are you also watching?"

Little Mud's mother touched the child in her arms and nodded: "Many ordinary people who did nothing during the war were killed by the lord's army, and they were said to be rebels...The sons of those lords are still in Civita Live well in the city... Some people say that the new lord is good, and he should be given some time... But why didn't he hang those bad guys?"

"Maybe, Solon's law is like this." Royer explained.

"The elders do evil, and the children and grandchildren enjoy happiness. Is this the law of Solon?"

Little Mud's mother didn't have much knowledge, but every word she said made Royer's heart sink.

He can explain and refute until she is speechless...

But Royer gave up.

"Some people have always said that His Majesty was deceived by others, which made Civita so troubled. Hearing that His Majesty is coming soon, we also want to see if everything will be different."

"Mom, the meat is ready!"

Little Niba's mother got up quickly, took out the boiled meat, and added some salt she didn't know where she got it. After she set aside a share of Little Niba, she was so hungry that she trembled and took the rest without hesitation. It was brought to Royer.

"I used to live in the city of Civita, and I met many adventurers. You are different from many adventurers... I have never seen a person who doesn't ask for money without asking the details of the monster, just the material... Thank you, that monster It's dangerous, please do what you can."

Royer, who was seen through, let go: "Sharem and I are more dangerous than most monsters on this land, don't worry, I will help you get rid of the monsters that hurt this village, in the name of Royer oath!"

"Then I will swear in the name of Shalem." The dozing Shalem woke up in time.

Since the two teamed up, the highest level of monsters they have killed is comparable to the seventh level, which is already the record of the top adventurer in the entire Mera. They didn't think that such an enemy could appear in Civita, a place where there had never been a record of witnessing a seventh-order monster.

Little Niba stuffed the wooden bowl containing meat into his mother's arms, and moved eagerly.

Seeing that Little Niba and his mother were about to enjoy the food, there was a burst of shouting outside the door.

Little Mud opened the door, his pupils dilated instantly, and a stumbling figure covered in blood fell into the room.

The little mud mother jumped up in horror, looking at the cluster of arrows on the man's back, trembling all over, at a loss.

"Run...Run...Nobleman, Dongshou!" The eyes of the man who was like a gossamer dimmed a little after he finished speaking.

Royer stood up. Years of combat experience allowed him to see at a glance that the man had received magic damage in addition to arrow wounds. It was hard to imagine how he returned home with so many injuries.

Everything happened so suddenly, Royer, who was not mentally prepared, was still in shock and did not recover, when he heard an explosion outside the house.

The village was in complete chaos. Before the warning bell from the high tower of the village rang twice, there was a roar and it fell to the ground.

The cavalry galloping in the distance came to the outskirts of the village in the blink of an eye.

When Royer left the house, he saw the galloping cavalry slashing at an old squirrel man who was too late to run, and the head rolled to the bottom of Royer's feet, his eyes wide open.

The sword was unsheathed, and it was retracted again. The murderer's knight was decapitated.

Royer walked towards the cavalry that kept pouring into the village, his eyes were red and he roared angrily: "Whose subordinates are you, whose subordinates are you!!"

"Mind your own business, kill!"

The rockets in the hands of the cavalry shot out, and the spell released by the magician in the distance covered the entire village in an instant.

After the explosion, the village ignited a raging fire, and countless people who couldn't escape howled and rolled on the ground.

Shalem wanted to put out the fire with water magic, but was shocked to find that there was no water source around, and the water drawn from the ground was not enough to extinguish the raging fire.

It was also at this moment of astonishment that another round of explosions sounded.

The slashing of the cavalry and the washing of the ground by the magician are carried out simultaneously. This is basically the practice of an army formation, but this is not a battlefield!

The squirrel people living here are all ordinary people. When entering the village, Royer judged by their posture of holding weapons that there were no remnants of rebels among them.

They are massacring the unarmed subjects of Solon!

"Stop it!"

Royer didn't want to attack his own people, but seeing the brutal actions of the cavalry, the knife in his hand roared.

Another swing of the knife, the sharp breath left a deep ravine on the ground, and several cavalrymen who could not avoid it were split in half with their horses and men.

"I told you all to stop, don't you understand!"

"Irish order, shoot to kill all witnesses, regardless of race!"

The magical order echoed over the burning village.
