Chapter 88: The Downtrodden Knight

"How did you deal with the corpses of those goblins before?" Brutus saw two team members in the distance carrying the corpses of goblins and asked Joel beside him.

"We will bury them in the dug holes and then fill them up." Joel broke off a small piece of bread and stuffed it into his mouth, chewing it while replying, "I heard that it was Peter who suggested Captain Jack do this.

I don’t know why it takes so much trouble. Those ugly things are not human and need to be buried.”

Brutus took a bite of the bread, and did not feel that this topic affected his appetite at all: "If you ask me, if conditions permit, it is better to be burned to ashes. I just came from the town of Tatto, and the town just survived the death

I don’t want to see those skeletons anymore due to the attack of the spiritual mage.”

"No wonder the team members Captain Jack sent to report the news only got a notice asking us to handle it on our own. It turns out that the town of Tatto has too much to take care of itself." Joel contacted what happened before and understood the reason, "If those skeletons also

If I can be driven—I’ll get rid of those corpses right now.”

"Don't dig out those that were buried before." Brutus quickly pressed Joel's shoulders and suggested, "The weather may have rotted, and it will be troublesome to deal with it."

"Don't worry, we can endure that kind of suffering." Joel easily got rid of Brutus' hand on his shoulder, "After all, the duty of the village guard is not to let this kind of potential danger exist near the village."

He hurriedly ran towards the two team members who were carrying the body, ready to deal with this troublesome matter immediately.

Brutus could only praise their conscientiousness in his heart. He finished eating the remaining portion of the bread in his hand, and then walked into the house where John was - this was originally the home of another male villager, but it was occupied in an emergency.

A room was created to treat John's injuries.

"Have you had breakfast?" He walked into the room and asked Peter who was changing the cloth bandage on John's forehead.

Peter quickly tied a knot on the cloth: "Not yet, I plan to go after changing the cloth and bring a bowl of gruel to John."

Brutus stepped forward, stretched out his right hand and touched John's forehead, and then touched John's wrist. After comparing the temperature with his own forehead, he confirmed that he had no signs of infection yet.

"If the problem on his forehead is significantly higher than your own, it means that the condition of his wound may have worsened, which will be a bit tricky. But it seems that there is no such risk yet."

"Mr. Brutus, can you tell me about this? I also want to learn about your medical knowledge."

"Haha, that's all I know." Brutus waved his hand, "But of course I can introduce you to some things I know, but I'm not sure whether they are effective or not. You have to practice them yourself."

He and Peter walked out of the room and talked for a while outside the room about some medical knowledge that he still remembered.

"Thank you very much, Mr. Brutus. I will study it carefully later." Peter thanked him sincerely.

"You're welcome, it would be a good thing if these methods work."

"By the way, Mr. Brutus. The pharmacist who taught me herbal medicine before also mentioned some similar views to me. I think the two of you should have something in common."

Brutus became interested in the apothecary: "I don't know what his name is, but I will talk to him if I meet him."

Peter shook his head with some regret: "I only know that he lives in Sissoko City, and will only come here with the caravan when he needs to buy herbs in the village. He has a pharmacist badge with a cyan feather on his chest, maybe

You can rely on this to identify him."

Brutus kept this incident in mind and prepared to look for this man when he arrived at Sissoko.

"Brutus, come here, we need to talk about the arrangements for the afternoon."

Brutus looked over in response. Next to Jack stood a young man leading a donkey. It seemed that he should be an adventurer from Sissoko.

The young man is about 1.7 meters tall, has dark red curly hair, a beard, and has several conspicuous patches on his clothes.

His left hand was pressed on the hilt of the long sword, and his eyes narrowed a lot after looking at Brutus and Peter, looking a little unfathomable.

"This is Knight Priul." Jack introduced to Brutus, "He is the man who came to help us from Sissoko City."

"Knight? You look a little embarrassed..." Brutus looked at the knight a few more times and had some guesses about the knight's financial situation.

Priul had long been accustomed to others looking at him like this, but he still snorted imperceptibly.

He said: "You can rest assured of my ability. I can enter the mine alone this time and I will give you a satisfactory result."

"Knight Priul, I think you don't understand the situation well enough. It's not too late for us to talk about the mine first and then decide on the next plan." Jack, who once again heard Priul take the initiative to ask for help, said quickly.

, "You can rest assured that we will record this action truthfully."

"I am not the kind of aristocrat who is greedy for petty gains. I must record it truthfully."

"Of course, of course."

Who said Jack was rigid? It seems like it's actually okay... Brutus doesn't care much about this kind of thing. Anyway, he just wants to earn a resume...

Most of the village guards are now gathered under the arrow tower at the west gate, sitting in a circle.

Jack used branches to draw a few crooked lines on the ground with no clear meaning, and then introduced to Priul and Brutus, who were sitting on both sides of him: "If we want to enter this mine, we must first pass through this

The tunnel leading underground is about a hundred meters long."

"Then you'll enter an underground hall, which used to be where miners kept their tools."

Brutus looked at the overly abstract lines on the ground and decided it would be better to listen to Jack's introduction.

"Except for the tunnel entering the hall, there are four passages, three of which are dead ends, and only one leads to the former mine. The bottom of the mine may have been penetrated by water, and no one can tell the situation inside."

"Goblins know how to use tools. Are there any pickaxes left in the mine?" Puliul asked.

Jack shook his head: "I don't know, that place has been abandoned for decades, and the villagers who used to work there have passed away. I only know these things."

"When Philip and the others come back to report the reconnaissance situation, we will prepare to surround the mine." Jack named a few people, "Then the two of you will enter the mine with us and surround the mine."

Kill all the goblins."

After the meeting, Jack talked with his team members about the subsequent defense work in the village. Brutus and Priul stood together.

"Hello, looking at Jack's behavior just now, you should not be from this village." Priul made a standard knightly salute to Brutus and spoke first, "I am Priul Si.

Ersis, a second-class knight of the kingdom. Who are you?"

Brutus didn't know whether he should return the favor, so he could only answer directly: "Andos Brutus, a citizen of Gris, is now a free citizen of Loma for the time being."

"It seems that my intuition is right. I feel that you have a certain special temperament like the Gris people I have met." Priul looked a little excited, "You have this kind of temperament among these country bumpkins.

The uniqueness is even more obvious.”

Brutus felt that his words were too exaggerated, so he had to smile awkwardly.
