Chapter 15 The mission is out
After dinner, Lu Xi and his two friends parted, they hummed a small song and walked towards the castle with satisfaction.
He walked through the main entrance and chatted with two little maids who were cleaning for a while. After making them giggle, he walked towards the restaurant. These maids were all girls called by Orusello from the nearby village. They were definitely not beautiful, but they were still quite youthful and energetic. Lu Xi often talked and laughed with them, but this did not mean that he had any dirty and corrupt thoughts of a villainous young man.
In the restaurant, the fat chef Aunt Marcy was looking at herself with a smile. A set of tableware and a plate of paste-like food had been arranged on the table.
"Young Master, it's time to have supper."
"Can you stop eating this..." Even though he was hungry, Lu Xi was unwilling to eat these sticky cat food, let alone had a full meal of barbecue.
"That won't work," Aunt Marcy shook her head, "Old Gam told me that you must finish it."
Lu Xi sighed, sat down obediently, frowned and began to send the paste into his mouth.
Halfway through eating, Lu Xi remembered that the old butlers who supervised her cat food in the past were all monsters: "By the way, why isn't Mr. Gamcha here?"
"Because the master came just now, I want to go and serve him." Gamcha's voice suddenly rang.
"Wow," Lu Xi turned around and happened to see the old housekeeper's unpretentious face and big black eyes. "You'd better say it when you show up. Don't you know that scaring people will scare people to death?"
"That old Gam is really rude." The old housekeeper bowed and apologized, but raised his head and spoke in a serious tone. "But young master, being scared means that your willpower is not enough. As a magician, this is too out of control."
"Yes, yes, you always say everything right." Lu Xi quickly changed the topic, "Does the teacher need me to prepare for research tonight?"
The old monster shook his head, and his attitude seemed very solemn: "The master said that you don't need your help in the research tonight, but..."
"This 'but' is probably even more troublesome, and my heart is so cold that I hear it." Lu Xi couldn't help but say.
The old housekeeper ignored him and continued: "Just just now, the county garrison commander nearby came to visit the master and said that a group of thieves formed by black flag-winged men appeared near the Colorful Rose Island. After a long period of investigation by the county garrison troops, the thieves finally found the hiding place of the thieves."
"Then we will destroy it as soon as possible. Why do we come to visit the teacher specifically?"
"This is because the place where these thieves are hiding is in the master's territory."
"Uh?" Lu Xi couldn't help but feel energetic, "On this island."
"Of course not." The old housekeeper shook his head, "In addition to this colorful rose island, there are several small islands nearby that are all the property of the master. They are too small to live in, so we ignored them. Unexpectedly, there will be thieves hiding on it. If the garrison palace wants to wipe out them, it has to attack the master's territory, so we have to come and ask for advice."
"...Dad, does the central government still need the consent of the local lord to capture criminals?"
"This, the master's identity is quite special after all."
"So, the powerhouse..."
Knowing that Lu Xi would definitely not have anything good to say, the old housekeeper quickly said, "So, the master said, "Some little thieves still need to alarm the garrison house, and my assistant can send them away."
Lu Xi was so shocked that he couldn't speak. After a long time, he asked carefully: "Does the teacher have any other assistant?"
"No, of course, only the young master."
"I have never had practical experience since I learned magic, the teacher doesn't know?"
"The master said: Even the crypt lord can't do anything to you, let alone a few small thieves?"
"Even the old devil knows this?" Lu Xi pressed his forehead depressedly, "Does he know: If the magician goes to the battlefield without any protection, is this basically seeking death?"
"He said it, so he decided to lend you a consolidation puppet."
"Really? It's Mithril, pure gold, Oz steel, and star iron?" Lu Xi's eyes lit up.
"Haha, young master, you are so humorous. Who would use such expensive sacred metal as a puppet?"
"Who said no? If I have money, I will be four puppets, Misinians are used to buy vegetables, pure golds are used to cook, Oz Steels are used to stand guard, and Star Irons are used to take care of the children..."
"That's a pity, this one is clay now."
As the name suggests, a construction puppet is a golem created by magicians who are majoring in practicing chemistry. It is controlled through spiritual links and some simple instructions and cooperates with the magician to fight. Although the manipulator and the maker have a certain influence, the combat power of the puppet mainly depends on the material.
The directly-affiliated puppet troops of the Federation are composed of copper, steel and magnets. The local garrison house also has large-scale stone statue troops. As for clay...
"Does the teacher know that the golem of clay is a little stronger than the skeleton soldiers and goblins at most?"
"I know, so the master will agree to you to hire two helpers in the village." The old butler nodded and stuffed a bag into Lu Xi's hand. "This is the map and your magic weapon. When you find a good helper, you can go to the stable to choose three-horned eagles as your mount. Okay, that's it."
"that's all?"
"That's it!" Gamcha nodded firmly.
When Lu Xi realized it, he had been carried out by several large-sleeved servants with a chair to the outside of the castle. The gate behind him was closed tightly with a loud bang, as if he was sending a plague god.
After Lu Xi's stunned eyes lasted for half a minute, he finally jumped up and raised two middle fingers to the castle behind him.

"I do want to trigger a task to cheat experience value, but at most it is to help the old lady buy vegetables and help the old lady water flowers and other D-level tasks. I don't want to kill monsters like this!" Lu Xi looked at the sky with grief and sighed a long time. He looked at the clay doll beside him with only the combat power of the Black Iron Level 5, and his mood suddenly became depressed.
"Come on!" Lu Xi kicked the foolish doll in anger, and then walked towards the village with big strides.
