Apocalyptic Dragonborn Lord

Chapter 309 Veterans

Stannis clicked the helmet again, and the dark armor retracted again.

"How?" Stannis asked provocatively. With this armor, he could kill both the smiling man in front of him and the ghosts in the town.

Korvo didn't seem as frightened as Kimberly, he just said calmly: "You are indeed much stronger than I imagined, but obviously you have overlooked an important issue."

Stannis thumped in his heart, he knew what the other party said was right.

"That is, under the restraining enchantment of the ghost, no matter how much power is hidden in your body, it cannot be released."

The lord sat on the chair slumped. What the other party said made him lose hope immediately. He knew that without the dragon roar and the dark armor, he was just a slightly stronger ordinary human being.

"That's why I always say that today's young people don't pay attention to the training of their fists and feet, and they always want to rely on external forces to become stronger overnight. This idea is wrong from the beginning."

Kimberly echoed him sarcastically, "That is, as long as you were good at splitting rocks like you did when you were young, that's the only way to become stronger."

Stannis raised his head abruptly, and said to Corvo, "Since you are so powerful, if you join hands with me, you will definitely be able to destroy the pumpkin!"

But unexpectedly, the Laughing Man shook his head firmly, "This is impossible."

"Why!" Stannis yelled. "Don't you want to save this town? Don't you just let those monsters take your home town!"

Unexpectedly, Kovo still refused: "Yes, I never cared about the life and death of this town, it was because of Kimberly's repeated begging that I rescued you, don't make a mistake, otherwise why would I have never talked to those demons?" Head-to-head confrontation?"

His words made Stannis completely stunned. Yes, Kimberly was the savior from the beginning to the end, and if Kovo really wanted to save people, there would be no way there were only so few survivors here.

But Stannis can't control so much anymore, Anya is in danger, he must use all means to save her, "I am the lord! As a commoner, you must obey my orders!"

But Corvo didn't care about his threat, "Sorry, Your Excellency, do you think what you said in this lawless place is still valid?"

"Then how much do you want? What kind of official position, land, house, I can even give you my own castle!" Stannis almost knelt down to the other party, he didn't care about any dignity for Anya.

However, Korvo still refused to let go, "Your Excellency, let me explain clearly to you here. Even if I want to help you, it is still impossible for the two of us to do it. As Haili said, The appearance of that pumpkin is as hard as steel, and it cannot be destroyed by the current means alone, not to mention that the town is full of demons and ghosts, we can't break in at all, so I don't want my death to be meaningless, please forgive me."

After speaking, he walked out, and Kimberly gave the lord an embarrassed look, and also walked out of the room, leaving only Stannis sitting in the room in despair.

After a long time, he raised his head and looked at Evelyn who was in a deep sleep on the bed. Now there was Yoyo who was seriously injured and unconscious in front of him, and An Ya who was about to die lay next door. This plot was very familiar, and he You can also feel the despair of being a hero.

"Sasha... Please tell me, what should I do?" He muttered to himself, expecting the female soul in his body to help him again.

Outside, Kimberly catches up to Corvo, who is walking ahead.

"Old friend, is this really okay?" He couldn't bear to ask, even he felt that Kovo's actions were too heartless.

"If he shrinks back from even this difficulty, it means that he is not the person we are waiting for, and he cannot complete this mission. Why should I waste time on him?"

Kimberly couldn't refute the theory that Corvo said, so he had to persuade his old friend from another angle, "But we have no time! You also know that monsters can break out of their shells at any time, we can't just watch them destroy Oak Town Since that person is willing to take risks, we should let him try, do you still have doubts about the prestige of the Dragon Slayer?"

But Korvo still shook his head persistently, "Courage and force alone are not enough. This path must be chosen by him voluntarily, because what he will endure next is far more than the suffering that is brought about in front of him."

Kimberly stopped arguing with him, and if there's one thing I've learned from living with Korvo for 40 years, it's how stubborn this guy is.

Although the smiley man always has a 'smile' on his face, those who are familiar with him know that he never smiles.Corvo had these two scars on his mouth at a very young age, rumored to have been inflicted on his face by his drunken alcoholic father with red-hot iron tongs while the jerk man took his His wife was beaten to death in front of his children, and from that day on, Corvo never smiled again.

His tragic face made people stay away just by looking at him, and he became a homeless orphan after losing his parents, and was ridiculed by the children in the town. At the same time, in such an indifferent town, the adults did not hide it at all He spurned him, so Corvo could only survive by stealing and robbing since he was a child. No one knows how much he suffered while growing up, and as his only friend Kimberly in the town, he can also feel that Corvo is always full of hatred for this world.

When Korvo turned 18, he fell in love with a girl like all boys, but like all unfortunate people, this love ended in tragedy.

In order to escape the troubles in his hometown, Kovo took the initiative to join the army, and Garcia, who had just entered the Duchy of Tanis, needed to form an army with no foundation, recruiting all orphans whose parents had died. With his mind and body trained, Korvo was appointed as the team leader as soon as he entered the army. Coupled with his ruthless and efficient treatment of the enemy, he quickly stood out from a group of desperadoes. Everyone knows this smiling man He has almost hatred for human beings, but no one dares to ask him why.

Also relying on this, Garcia will choose him to be the first commander of his most elite unit "Black Watch", when he was only 25 years old.

Under his rule, this gang of killing machines in black armor carried out the dirtiest deeds, and they also used their vigorous methods to slaughter families who dared to resist Garcia one by one. Now some elderly nobles are hearing that' When the Laughing Man' is famous, he can't help but feel frightened.

However, one day 15 years ago, the Black Watch commander Kovo, who was regarded as the right-hand man by Duke Garcia, suddenly disappeared without leaving a word. This became the second largest disappearance of Qunar after the only son of the previous Duke that year. event.

Kimberly, who had just inherited his father's title as Sheriff of Oak County, was surprised to find that an old friend he hadn't contacted for more than ten years suddenly appeared at his bedside and begged him not to tell others about his return.

Later, the sheriff helped him build a wooden house in the depths of the desolate forest, and since then the name of the Laughing Man has completely disappeared from this land.

Until Stannis arrives.
