Explosive female knight

7

As soon as Betty heard that Bailey was talking about going to the Giant Mouse Cave, her feet went weak. Even if she tried to kill a level 1 wolf cub, she would only be chased around. Now she was suddenly asked to challenge a level 6 monster, and it was such a ferocious and dangerous creature as a giant rat. How could she have such courage?

Needless to say, Betty refused.

Bailey didn't force her: "Well, since I don't have a weapon, I can't dig rat holes for the time being. Let me find you a suitable weapon first."

"The weapons commonly used by knights are usually swords, hammers, axes, or long-handled weapons. You are just a beginner now. You don't have enough strength, skills, or agility. You can't use weapons that are too heavy. Then you have to find It’s the lightest one-handed sword. Well, also, it’s best to find another shield, because your protection is too low.”

Betty listened to Bailey's comments, and she believed that Bailey did know a lot about this aspect. If she followed Bailey's instructions and studied, she might really be able to become a professional knight. But……

"Bailey, the weapons and protective equipment you mentioned require money to buy. Betty needs money the most right now. Not to mention that Betty doesn't have it now, even if Betty does have it, it must be used to treat her aunt's illness first... "

"Of course I know you have no money." Bailey said: "Besides, what other good things can money buy with weapons and equipment?"

Betty blinked: "No money? Where can I get it?"

"The huge consumption hole."

"Giant..." Why is it a giant consumption hole again? Didn't Bailey just say that with her level, she couldn't break into the huge waste hole alone?

"Don't be nervous. The Juhu Cave I told you is not in Juhu Cave, but behind the mountain of Juhu Cave."

Bailey told her slowly: "Although the giants no longer attack villages and passers-by, it does not mean that they dare not attack people. Especially those humans who carry weapons and equipment and go in specifically to rob their treasures."

"Juhu likes shiny and golden things. Those gold coins and treasures are all Juhu's favorite toys. Some junior professionals who think they are sure of victory will covet the treasures of Juhu. However, they do not I don’t know the worst part of the huge consumption, so I usually sneak into the forest alone, and the final result is that I can’t get out.”

"The Juhu only collect things that glow, so some non-luminous weapons and equipment are discarded by them as rubbish in the mountains behind the Juhu Cave."

"The back mountain of Juhu Cave is a natural concave cave that is bottomless. There is no way in or out. Except for Juhu who can freely shuttle in the cave, no one can escape without disturbing Juhu. Go in. Over time, there are a lot of treasures piled up in that cave. I can help you go down into the cave and choose the weapons and equipment you think are suitable for you. However, if you want to use those equipment back to exchange for gold coins If so, I would advise you not to do this."

"Huh? Why?" Betty didn't expect Bailey to guess her thoughts at once.

"1. Because those pieces of equipment are not worth much, you will never get the required amount if you only sell one or two. 2. If you sell all the equipment and weapons, it will take a lot of effort and time to move them up from below. , you will definitely be discovered by the giant rat before you move it up. Besides, those things are used by dead people. It is inevitable that some things are marked or remembered by others. If someone discovers their long-lost friend Or if your family’s things are sold to you, think about it, what will happen?”

Bailey is just a monster, but he didn't expect it to be so familiar with the world.

After hearing this, Betty could only say: "Then, we can only go down once to get things that Betty can use, right?"

Okay, even if you can only get one or two weapons that you can use, that's okay.

But, going to the back mountain of Giant Mouse Cave...can we ensure that she is not in danger?

"Of course there is no guarantee. It just depends on whether you can be smarter. As long as you react quickly enough, nothing will happen to you with my help."

That’s right, Bailey is a level 30 monster after all. With such a powerful backer, the monster that is only level 6 should not be able to harm her. Betty thought to herself. However, things went beyond her expectation.

The Juhu Cave is located deep in the forest. Because the Juhu Cave usually does not appear within the scope of human activities, and people in the village do not like to hunt deep in the forest, so no one in the village knows it. It turns out that they have always been afraid of and The guarded giant rat cave is located behind an abandoned mine in the forest.

Under Bailey's guidance, Betty came to the back of this abandoned mine. It turns out that the entrance of the Giant Mouse Cave is facing away from Kuha Village, and the Giant Mouse Cave is deep underground, and there is an abandoned mine as a barrier, so the villagers have never discovered that there is a Giant Mouse Cave here.

The deep hole that Bailey talked about that the giant rats used as garbage is in the mountain of this mine. Betty carried the linen bag behind her back and, with great effort, finally climbed to the highest point of the mine.

Those who have not climbed to the highest point will not discover that there is really a deep black hole on the other side of the mine, in a valley, blocked by four huge rocks.

The hole is just big enough for a giant mouse to enter and exit, so it is very hidden.

"When will the giant rat come?" The entrance of the giant rat's cave is at the back of the mine, so the giant rat will not pass through here when entering and exiting the mouse cave. But there's no guarantee when they will take a whim and come to this "garbage dump" to take a look.

Bailey said: "Giant rats cannot enter and exit through this hole. There is another exit at the bottom of this deep hole that can be connected to the mouse hole."

"This...is there a mouse hole at the bottom of this hole? Doesn't that mean that this hole is actually a big mouse hole!" Betty's teeth began to chatter again. It's a level 6 monster. After all, Bailey still asked her to destroy the giant rat's nest.

"What are you afraid of? It is said to be a place where rats discard garbage. Although it is connected to the rat hole, rats don't come here often. You just need to find the weapons and shields before they are discovered. If unfortunately, If you encounter a mouse, I can pull you out in time. If you can't find something good once, just come back a few times."

Bailey regards this mouse hole as his own back garden, right? You're here to pick vegetables, right? If it doesn't work once, just come a few more times? Betty has never done anything so thrilling and dangerous in her life.

Betty suddenly felt that her life was so happy. Even when he was fighting a mere level 1 wolf cub, he still had people like Brother Matthew protecting him. She didn't expect that once she met this caterpillar, she would have to face the huge cost of level 6 alone.

The giant wolf is far less "docile" than the little wolf cub!

"What? Are you afraid? It doesn't matter if you are afraid. We can turn back. Anyway, I am hiding in this bag, and no one can find me. Even if you live in that small village all your life, I will not be discovered by others."

Bailey's lazy voice came: "However, you have to promise that even if you get married, you will not let your future husband know about my existence."

Future husband?

Betty's face turned red. "What nonsense? There is no future husband!" She had never thought about getting married.

"Isn't it? If a woman cannot become a professional, she must marry early and have children to contribute to the prosperity of the country and future generations. Before the age of 14, you can freely choose the person you want to marry. If you haven't found the person you like after the age of 14, Your village chief or town chief will take action personally to help you choose a partner. Tsk, I think you humans regard yourself as such a noble character, but in fact you are not even as good as us insects. In terms of us insects There will never be such forced matching in this world. Tsk tsk tsk, tell yourself, if you are assigned by the village chief to a man, how much bride price will you get back? Do you have 2,000 gold coins?"

Bailey's words made Betty's face turn red, white and blue.

Betty is a simple-minded girl who grew up under the care of her aunt and villagers. Although her life was poor, she lived a carefree life. She had never heard of such a thing that if a girl over 14 years old could not become a professional, she would be forcibly married. However, she also knew that Bailey was right, because in their village, any girl who could not become a professional would not marry beyond the age of 14.

Once someone is close to 14 years old, the village chief will often come to the house to match the girl from that family. Because every time something like this happens, the people in the village have happy expressions, as if their own girl is getting married. Girls, on the other hand, don't necessarily show much resistance. Instead, they will carefully select from the list sent by the village chief. Therefore, Betty always thought that such a thing was a good thing, a happy and joyful thing. Just like every festival, the whole village is happy for the girl's successful marriage.

However, Betty never thought about what would happen to a girl if she didn't want to get married.

Betty never thought about such a possibility, because there has never been a girl who was unwilling to marry when she reached her age. However, Betty is unwilling to marry now.

Not to mention the people she didn't know who would be chosen by the village chief in the future, she was unwilling to marry even Brother Matthew, who had protected her since childhood.

But if she doesn't marry, it will violate the management announcement issued by Whirlwind Castle. Since this is an age of war, although the war cannot burn the land of the God of Light, the place where humans live, the number of professional people means the combat effectiveness of the human race, and the number and speed of reproduction of ordinary humans are at a certain level. The degree can determine the number of professionals. Therefore, population planning and family planning are a very important rule in the human race. All men and women who have reached a certain age, if they cannot become professionals and directly serve the country and the nation, they must work hard to have children... to create more dolls with the potential to become professionals.

This rule has been implemented in Whirlwind Castle for hundreds of years. It is precisely because of the king's "wise policy" that the human race is not inferior to other races - the elves, dwarves, and giants on every battlefield. These three races that are allied with the human race are not as powerful as the human race in their reproductive capabilities.

Therefore, if anyone dares to openly disobey the fertility regulations of Tornado Castle, the serious person will be sued in the royal court for "violating national policy and disrupting national order."

This rule sounds exaggerated, but so far, no girl of the right age is unwilling to get married even if she cannot become a professional. Because if a child born after a girl gets married becomes a professional in the future, no matter what profession, the girl will receive a medal of honorary motherhood.

A woman who has received a medal will be respected wherever she goes. Even the royal family members in the Whirlwind Castle cannot be rude to civilians with medals of honor. Likewise, the father will be honored. Everyone in the family can be promoted to civilian nobles.

Betty didn't expect that Bailey, a caterpillar buried in the soil, could know so many things. She hadn't had time to ask her aunt about these things yet.

"How do you know so many things? Have you ever lived in the human race?" Betty suspected that Bailey had not only lived in the human world, but also lived for a long time.

"Uh-huh. There's nothing I don't know about you humans." Bailey did not answer Betty directly, but changed the subject: "So, can't you go down now? If not, go back early. I’m going to sleep and practice as well.”

Cultivation... It turns out that Bailey sleeping in a linen bag is a practice. How long will it take for this kind of practice to "transform"?

"I...I'm going!" Betty gritted her teeth after hesitating for a while. She had to muster the courage to take this first step, because she knew that even if she asked her aunt for confirmation, what Bailey said was correct.

Her aunt, after her husband passed away, was almost forced into a marriage. If she hadn't picked her up that year and raised her as her husband's child, her aunt would have been forced to marry her. The court in town charged her with "violating national policies and disrupting national order."
