Chapter 140: The Council of Elders(1/2)

Chapter 140 Elders Meeting

The next day, outside Akara's tent, Kasha was already sitting there. Maybe this lazy guy slept here last night in order not to be late. It's not impossible to think about it.

"Hey, Wu, morning! What's going on? Your face is a little pale. Your body hasn't recovered yet, so don't do too strenuous 'exercise'!"

When Kasha saw me coming over with a pale face and shaky steps, she "consoled" me with a wicked smile - could this gossip girl have heard something? No way!

I gave up feebly, indicating that I was not in the mood to talk anymore. Although her guess was good, I went to that kind of place, but the reason for my weakness was not because of that...

Ladies' Street, this popular and direct name, doesn't surprise me at all when it comes from a rude barbarian like Doug. I guess those paladins or mages would definitely have a more elegant way of saying it.

As the name of the street suggests, it is actually a collection of brothels. Every woman in it is a poor woman who has lost her family and has no one to rely on. In order to support themselves or their family members who are also unable to work, they can only choose this kind of

Compared with the original world, women who engaged in this kind of work purely because of their depravity are completely different from each other. Therefore, the status of women here is not low. At least, even noble job transferees are not.

They cannot be forced to trade.

After the monster attack that affected the adventurers in the entire Rogge camp, the business of the Women's Street (let's call it Doug) has been very prosperous in recent days. Barbarians, druids, assassins, and even mages and paladins can

See, there are those mercenaries, of course. There is a profession that is unlikely to be seen...

Seeing this situation, I couldn't help but feel relieved, haha, we are all men.

However, before I could feel at ease, a few idiots suddenly shouted in front of me: "Master Wu Fan, it turns out you are here too, haha..."

In an instant, I felt as if all eyes were focused on me. I stared blankly at those idiots, my face turned pale, and I couldn't say anything for a moment.

You can imagine that in the original world, when you finally made up your mind to have a good time in a nightclub, several people suddenly walked across from you and greeted you in a voice that sounded louder than the heavy metal music: "Secretary of the xx Municipal Party Committee. So you are here too."

Whoring, haha...what a coincidence, let's go whoring together..."

If you are immersed in the scene, you can understand my mood at that time.

Doug, a bastard who had been stabbed a thousand times, seemed to be afraid that others would not know. He dragged me, who was extremely frustrated, around the entire women's street several times like a demonstration, and then stuffed me in an extremely irresponsible way.

I went to a tent and went away happily. I never thought that my first time would be in such a state of despair. Fortunately, the sister who accompanied me was very pretty and had a good figure.

It is said that she is a very famous woman there. If it were a dinosaur, I would have to tear Doug alive, hum...

In short, if it is not necessary in the future, it is better to avoid going to such places.

"Anyway, what happened this time."

I lay weakly on the grass with a piece of grass in my mouth.

"Let's wait until Kane and the others arrive."

Kasha took out a wine bottle from his waist - I didn't expect Farah to be able to make another one for Kasha in just a few days. The efficiency was pretty good. But based on my understanding of that stingy old man, I guess it was

If there is something that Kasha has caught, I have to do it for her.

After a while, Kane walked over with his cane in high spirits, and then Farah came almost at the right time. Tsk, he acted as if he was a busy man and we were just leisurely. The three of them came at the same time.

He gave him a look of contempt.

Farah arrived, and the big boss Akara, as if he had calculated correctly, slowly opened the tent, with a cane in one hand and a large bottle in the other hand, with hot steam coming out of it.

She was just preparing some refreshing water for greetings.

Looking back, old man Farah took out a set of exquisite symposium-style tables and chairs from the inventory somewhere at some point, and then arranged a soundproof barrier around them.

I said, can't you put something meaningful in your inventory?

I muttered and pulled out a chair and sat down. There were exactly five chairs, no more and no less. It seemed that it had been planned in advance, which made me even more vigilant. The four people sitting in front of me were all old foxes, and I was among them.

In his eyes, he was probably only a lamb-level creature at most.

"Then, let's discuss the report of this battle first."

As if Akala didn't see the confusion on my face, he took out a parchment from his arms, with some words densely written on it.

"This is calculated by Kane, and contains the specific losses in this battle."

She pointed to the parchment on the table, but the other three didn't seem to have any intention of taking action. It was probably that the data had already been engraved in their hearts.

Only I, who did not have a comprehensive understanding of this battle, in order to forget the strange atmosphere now, gingerly picked up the parchment and read it carefully.

Deaths and injuries, this is the data Akara told me, as well as the specific consumption of grain land, gold coin expenditures, the existing reserves of Rogge camp, and even the damage to this year's harvest from this battle, how many families have completely lost their lives because of this battle

There are relatively detailed data on the loss of labor force, etc. It’s really true that Kane covers everything.

After I read the parchment carefully, the four people started to discuss it.

"Collect donations from career changers or..." Akara.

"After this battle, the price of food will definitely increase, but the income of civilians..." Kane.

"Leave it to me to strengthen the village's defense and conduct research on magic alarms..." Farah.

"When necessary, we can also negotiate with Lu Gaoyin..." Akara.

It felt like their conversation was exactly a topic that would only be touched upon by those senior officials sitting around a round table with their stomachs puffed out and their legs crossed. I, who knew nothing about these, stood aside in a daze, completely unable to intervene.

On the lips, I feel more like an outsider than an outsider.

Ah, maybe there is another guy who has the same problem as me. Poor Kasha seems to have said nothing, but her mentality is much better than mine. Or it can be said that she is thick-skinned. At this time, she is taking a sip of ale and a sip of ale.

I'm having a great time drinking the Qingshen water. Hey, aren't you afraid of diarrhea?

The two main players in this discussion, Akara and Kane, finally allowed me to see their strength. Those problems that in my eyes were almost impossible to solve. However, after their detailed negotiation, they finally allowed me to see their strength.

I began to feel that these problems were not difficult at all.

As expected, not everyone can be a manager. Although Akara and Kane are not as powerful as Farah and the others, compared to the entire Rogge camp, they are truly indispensable figures.

The discussion lasted for more than two hours. Every problem on the parchment seemed to have been solved. The only thing I could tell from the side was that the Rogge camp might be a little tighter this year. As long as this year is over,

It will return to pre-war levels next year.

"Okay, let's stop this topic." Akara smiled faintly and put away the parchment rolls on the table.

"Dear Wu, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for so long. I'm afraid you are also wondering why we old guys specially called you here."

"Yeah."

I nodded my head like a chicken pecking at rice. I was ignored for almost 3 hours. At this moment, I really felt like I was filled with tears.

"hehe……"

The four of them looked at each other, and then laughed softly, as if four old foxes were surrounding a chicken, discussing how to bite it, which immediately gave me a feeling of thorns on my back.

Finally, Akara spoke.

"Although it's a bit of a formula. But I still want to ask you a few questions."

"Yeah." I nodded.

"Do you like Camp Rogue?"

Akara's first question made me a little confused, but I still nodded.

"Do you want to protect someone important to you?"

I continued to nod. Isn’t this nonsense?

"Can you do anything for the people in Rogge's camp?"

"It depends on the person and what they have paid for it," I replied without missing a beat.

"So, the last question." Akara glanced at me appreciatively, and then took a deep breath, which made me suddenly nervous.

"Are you very free?"

"Huh? Ah! Well." The question was completely unexpected, and I nodded subconsciously.

"That's great."

Akala said with a smile like a fish taking the bait.

"Welcome to join us."

She took out another parchment roll from her arms and unfolded it. Then Kasha took advantage of my daze, cut my finger at lightning speed, and then pressed it.

"Wait, what are you doing..." Why do I feel like I am being forced to sign a contract of prostitution?

"Welcome, welcome, warm welcome."

Kasha, the culprit, held my hand without any consciousness at this time and shook it desperately. Her happy look seemed to say, ah! I finally found the scapegoat.

"Haha, don't pay attention to Kasha's words, Nuo, just see for yourself." Akara's smile was particularly scary today.

I picked up the parchment tremblingly, and for a moment, I only saw four bright red characters on it - Honorary Elder.

"Honorary Elder?"

"That's it." Farah patted my shoulder with a sad expression.

"You want me to be the one?"

The four of them nodded in unison.

"Are you kidding? I can't do this."

I shook my head as if I had taken several kilograms of ecstasy. If it weren't for the two old bums, Kasha and Farah, I would have run away.

"It doesn't matter, we will take your ability into consideration."

"What are the responsibilities of an honorary elder?" I am not stupid enough to go to YY first and have no rights.

"It's nothing. There are some urgent tasks, just like this monster attack. The most important thing for you now is to improve your strength. We will deal with other tasks later."

As if he saw the worries in my heart, Akara continued to say with a smile.
To be continued...
