Chapter 82 Another goal
In the hazy state, Lu Chen found that he was already in the bumpy carriage. Thinking of the last scene, he immediately opened his blurry eyes, but before he could see clearly, a soft hand gently wiped the dirt from the corners of his eyes.
"Let..." Seeing Rafitta who was serving him in surprise, Lu Chen was about to scream when the other party's fingers were put on his mouth and stopped his voice.
"Shh, be gentle, everyone is sleeping, don't move, have a good rest. Don't worry, everyone is fine. In a while, you should be able to reach Adego City." Tears were circling in Rafitta's eyes, because when he used the scroll to kill the thief zombie and returned to Lu Chen, even Tracy's healing technique was helpless against his injuries. Under normal circumstances, it was the best situation to be able to save his life. Now, rushing to Adego City in such a hurry is more hopeful to seek treatment.
Lu Chen, who didn't know the specific situation, saw Rafitta's sad look, naturally stretched out his hand to wipe her tears. Moreover, the other party's eyes were covered with blood. It was obvious that he had been taking care of himself and had never rested, which made him feel heartbroken. However, what he inadvertently stretched out was the worst-injured left hand, which shocked Rafitta in an instant.
Seeing Rafitta's stunned expression, Lu Chen felt that his movements had gone a little too far, so he could only put down his hand and said a little embarrassedly: "Haha, it's fine, I'm fine, don't worry." But after he finished speaking, Rafitta caught him before his left hand could return to his original position.
"This, little Luxi, your hand? Can your hand move?" Holding Lu Chen's left arm, Rafitta screamed in surprise. When she came to her senses and covered her mouth, it was too late. The other girls all woke up and immediately surrounded her.
However, everyone did not speak in a lingering manner, but just looked at Lu Chen with excitement, gratitude, and a hint of self-blame; Verona also held his right hand without hesitation, staring at him with deep tears, and Tracy directly smashed the healing technique.
"What are you doing? I just woke up, isn't it necessary?" Lu Chen felt strange when the girls looked, and then he found something wrong. Sharon, the little girl, didn't stick to it, and asked nervously, "Where is Sha~Lusha? Is she in other cars?"
"Don't worry, Xiao Luosha is fine, but... she hasn't woken up after fainting last night. Now, she is asleep there." Verona replied, and at the same time she nudes her mouth and points out where Sharon is.
Although Verona's tone was very calm, Lu Chen still tightened her right hand, which was held by her, to convey her feelings. After seeing a smile on her face, she sat up with the help of two beauties. But then she discovered something that made him embarrassed. The one she had been pillowing was Rafitta's legs. What was even more embarrassing was that the fabric on her legs was wet, and she didn't know whether it was her sweat or saliva.
Seeing Lu Chen looking at him awkwardly, Rafitta naturally understood why it was for. His little face immediately became very rosy, but that was it. Then he stood up as if nothing had happened, and helped Lu Chen to walk towards Sharon with Verona. They naturally understood that Sharon's coma made him feel at ease.
Since the other party didn't say anything, Lu Chen naturally pretended that he hadn't seen it, and it was so embarrassing to have so many beauties present.
Of course, everyone actually saw it in such a small space, but everyone understood that it was not time to play, and the relationship between Lu Chen and Sharon was public, so it was a bit too much to pull Rafitta into it. As for Lu Chen who was able to recover to this level in a short period of time, everyone tactfully chose to remain silent. After this battle, the girls had completely regarded him as their own person, and his secret was naturally everyone's secret.
When she came to Sharon's side, Verona said to Lu Chen with some concern: "Don't force herself. Tracy has been taking care of Luosha. No matter from any aspect, she is just sleeping. Wait until Adego City and find someone else to see."
He nodded and signaled her not to worry. Then after Lafite unexpectedly let go of his left hand tacitly, Lu Chen held Sharon's hand. The next moment, he felt relieved and smiled and comforted softly, "Haha, don't worry, this girl is the same as when you first obtained elemental power, but she is lucky than you. The newly generated fighting spirit is automatically fusing with the elements."
Then after everyone was glad to escape this life and death disaster, Lu Chen asked about what happened after he fell into a coma.
After the black-robed mage left, everything went very smoothly. After Rafitta released an impact on the thieves and zombies, everyone dismembered him, and then the weak effect disappeared in the dawn sunshine. It was because they saw that Lu Chen and Sharon were both in a coma, which made everyone worried, so they unanimously decided to rush to Adego City for help immediately, and the supplies were also consumed in this battle and they had to be replenished.
During this period, Malcolm came once and seemed to be asking about the situation, but when he saw that everyone was fine, he went back in shame.
The fourteen surviving soldiers all expressed their hope to be taken in. There was also the thief uncle who was not sure about his specific idea, so he just asked a riding beast to follow him in the team.
Nothing special happened. After listening to it, Lu Chen asked everyone to rest with peace of mind. Everything was waiting for Adego City before talking. He also sat in the carriage and thought about what to use to raise these beauties in the future.
This battle almost put all the scrolls on, and the girls' weaknesses of insufficient defense were completely exposed. Thinking of the scars on their bodies, Lu Chen felt extremely troubled. Not only was the extremely poor equipment, but he couldn't even keep up with the logistics supply. The most helpless thing was the problem of not cooperating with the mage.
Of course, the problem of mages is not only the red thorn flower. Due to the relatively rare mages, the entire Sidds continent regards mages as scarce resources. Any mage who has obtained two-star strength will be given a title, and a six-star mage can even get the title of earl and corresponding treatment. The conditions are only when the country needs it, it is enough to contribute a fee when it is needed. Therefore, mages who receive state support do not need to make money, just practice with one mind. Only when they themselves will hire or join a certain mercenary group to work together when they need it.
Lu Chen, who was unwilling to give up, also consulted Verona's plan to hire one or two water-based healing mages, but the answer was: With the strength of Red Thorn Flower, mages below the five-star strength cannot help at all, and the five-star magician is at least a middle-level nobleman. Therefore, it is unlikely that those who have special purposes will be excluded, even if they want to pay for hiring, let alone the money to hire a mage can help many elementary school girls.
Just when Lu Chen was trying not to use some earth knowledge to lure some mages to serve the beauties, Lafitta quietly leaned over and handed out the remaining six scrolls.
Just as he was about to say "keep it away, use it in the future", Lu Chen suddenly found a simple ring in it, and then he saw Rafitta erecting his index finger to his mouth and whispering: "Shh, this is taken from the left hand of the mage you cut off. For everyone, you should use an empty scroll, I secretly hid it, just treat it as a souvenir." Then Rafitta didn't even give Lu Chen a chance to speak, so he let go of the scroll and returned to his position to continue to rest.
I was a little confused. The ring I could wear on the hand of the undead mage. I knew it was probably a space ring without thinking. Rafita gave it to himself privately regardless of the mercenary rules. What is this? Lu Chen's head was a little overwhelmed.
"Bad boy, honestly tell me what did you do to my Lafitta." Verona, who pretended to be asleep, boldly lay on Lu Chen's shoulder and asked with a smirk. Knowing that Lu Chen was fine, she returned to her original appearance. With her strength, she naturally knew that everyone was really resting, not afraid of being discovered by others.
After being interrupted, Lu Chen simply stopped getting fucked. If he was self-indulgent, it would be embarrassing. He adjusted his emotions, turned his head and tapped Verona's lips, and then said a little serious: "At the college, I will exchange all these scrolls for money, and then buy a whole set of equipment for everyone. You are not allowed to object."
"I know, judging from your appearance, I feel like a bad person. I didn't deliberately deduct everyone. Who would have rich wants to keep these girls tight from head to toe?" Verona said a little aggrievedly, without the appearance of the team leader at all.
Feeling that his words seemed a bit too heavy, Lu Chen explained: "It's not that. I'm just afraid that you girls are too soft-hearted and use all your money to help people. You must know that the range of illumination of a torch is limited. Only by continuously continuing the flames and lighting more torches can you illuminate more places. What you really need to do is not to let the first torch be extinguished."
"Xiao Chenchen, why do I feel like you are a worldly old man, and you can even say such words." Verona looked at Lu Chen in surprise, and kissed him in the mouth before he retorted. After a long time, she let go and said happily: "Okay, you don't need to say it, I know, but you are really a weird person..."
Speaking of this, Verona seemed to remember something unpleasant, and then paused before continuing: "Do you know, war, adventure, mercenary mission and other factors have caused serious imbalance in the ratio of men and women in the Sids continent... Polygamy among the nobles became popular, and most men were proud of their wives and concubines, and sadly, women were also secretly comparing how many latecomers they could control... Sisters like us, even if they reached the level of six stars, are just vassals for people to enjoy, and no one really cares about us... The sisters don't care about the horrible scars on their bodies, but it is also out of resistance to this society. However, since you have become our boss behind the scenes, don't worry, we will definitely consider our own safety first when taking on tasks in the future."
Listening to Verona talking about the misery of women in this world intermittently, Lu Chen didn't know what to say. Such a social system had only been read in books, but now he really felt it through the people around him, and felt an indescribable feeling in his heart. However, he didn't want to change anything, because that was not something that a person could do, but he just regarded not "let the girls around him be subjected to such deformed social oppression" in his heart as his second goal in this world.
He reached out and stroked Verona's face gently, and Lu Chen suddenly said for no reason: "Be strong, so powerful that no one dares to come and make your decision. Before that, all the supplies will be provided by me."
He was stunned at first, then Verona showed a affectionate smile: "Chenchen~ It's great to know you, I can do it, and I will definitely make myself your pride!"
She naturally understood everything about Lu Chen, and with this experience, she no longer resisted spending a lot of money to arm everyone. During the fierce battle, she might suddenly lose everyone's taste, which made her feel very uncomfortable, especially when she saw Lu Chen in a coma, she almost couldn't help but pounce on him and cried.
After secretly kissing for a while, the two of them rested.
Verona didn't ask about Rafitta anymore. She didn't care how many women Lu Chen would have, because she understood that the system of this world would not allow him to have only one or two women, let alone be able to share a man with her little sister, she also liked it a little.
