Chapter 207: Every Student Has to Finish Their Homework Before the Holiday Deadline.
"Oh~ the arm can't twist the thigh. We made things simple before. Let's forget about it for now. You can go back to the base with us. It's not safe here."
Sighing, Bain stood up, hoping that Thorin would take refuge in Karl's base with him.
Thorin nodded, said nothing more, and turned to pack his luggage.
Bane and the others are not really good people, they are just ordinary people with a sense of justice.
They are willing to provide help as much as they can, but they will not do anything that endangers themselves or even their friends and family.
The attempts these days are the biggest concession they have made to their conscience, otherwise they would have gone to Karl's base long ago.
Soon, Thorin packed up his belongings and left the blacksmith shop with Bain and Scorpion.
Along the way, there would always be inexplicable roars from time to time, followed by a burst of beatings and begging.
But eventually, the sounds fade away and everything becomes quiet again.
Listening to these voices, the three of them walked forward and soon came to the entrance of the underground ruins.
Following the tunnel that had been repaired and expanded by the engineering construct, the three of them arrived at the base smoothly, and followed the Moon Spirit Maid into it.
Seeing that the maids seemed to be cleaning the square outside the base, Bain curiously asked V:
"Did something happen while we were gone?"
V truthfully told the story of how the members of the adventure group attempted to seize the base and were then wiped out by Karl.
"The forest is so big, there are really all kinds of birds."
Although he thought he was well-informed, Bain didn't often encounter such a strange guy.
Bain was speechless for a moment when he heard that Karl not only killed those who provoked trouble, but also killed a druid who was at least level 11.
If it were their adventure team, they should have spared that druid's life.
After all, it is possible to raise the Druid level to level 11. There may be someone behind him.
Even if you really want to kill, at least it should be hidden!
Just as I was thinking this, someone else visited the base.
The visitors were Joanna and her friend, both of whom looked quite tired.
"Good afternoon, senior. I'm sorry to come to visit you again so late. It's because we didn't complete the homework well some time ago, so..."
Since you are a student, you naturally have homework.
Joanna and the others stayed in the adventure zone for longer than expected, so the time for them to complete their homework was naturally reduced accordingly.
In the past few days, Joanna and the others have been working hard to catch up with the progress.
"Hahaha, make up for your homework before the holiday is over! I have done this before, ah, it was really thrilling at the time. I almost finished writing the last few questions one second before the teacher started class."
Thinking of the painful memories of his first grade, Karl covered his heart, looking like he was feeling the same.
Joanna and Hope nodded subconsciously.
Then Hope was surprised to realize that it had been so long since she came to Xen'drik, and it seemed that she hadn't started doing her homework yet.
Unlike professions such as Artificer and Mage, Druid's theoretical knowledge is biased towards biology and herbalism.
And this is also Hope's shortcoming.
Being able to transform into a brown bear is already the result of Karl's aunt's ultra-intensive training.
Hope actually didn't want to walk on the street looking like a tiefling. At least, she felt that she could try to change her skin color into that of a normal person.
"By the way, Senior Carl, regarding the recent situation in Storm Bay..."
After chatting for a few more words, Joanna suddenly seemed to have just remembered something and began to change the topic abruptly.
But before she could continue, Karl had already waved his hand, interrupting her words.
"You want to say that something will happen in Storm Bay recently? I already know. Just some time ago, the Druid of the Son of Winter and a group of his men came over."
Joanna was confused when she heard that there was actually a druid radical called the Sons of Winter.
She originally wanted to tell Karl that the chaos in Storm Bay was the result of the deliberate indulgence of the Dragon Mark family and other large forces.
But as a well-educated and intelligent aristocratic child, Joanna did not interrupt Karl, but listened to Karl continue.
"Those people wanted my base, but I refused, and then I killed them all. Well, now the Moon Spirit construct is cleaning up their corpses outside."
After listening to Karl's words, Joanna felt a slight sweat on her forehead.
‘There is indeed something more terrifying hidden here. I don’t know if the teacher and the others know about it, but they probably know it. The teacher hesitated under our questioning, and it didn’t look like he didn’t know anything at all. ’
With secret calculations in her heart, Joanna couldn't help but worry about the ordinary people in Storm Bay.
What is somewhat funny is that the one who is most concerned about governance infection is the Storm Council.
The reason is also very simple.
Without those ordinary people, the Storm Council would be a little unable to handle the adventurers in Storm Bay.
Once these people have nothing to worry about, and then think about the Storm Council's previous oppression of them, the regime in Storm Bay may only be overturned in an instant.
Joanna's family was once a noble of Sere. They moved to the Throne Castle because of the royal order during the Galifar period.
Who would have thought that the end of the Last War would end with the destruction of Israel.
And her family survived.
"What do you think of this, Senior Carl?"
Subconsciously, Joanna tried to find out what Carl thought.
"Me?"
Pointing at himself, Carl was puzzled.
He had limited influence on the whole thing. Even if he went to the streets to help with free medical treatment, without the follow-up treatment, those people would be infected again, and it would be difficult to save a few people.
Instead of that, it would be better to use the engineering construct to open up a place in this underground ruins for ordinary people who fled here to live.
Of course, the materials used are definitely impossible to be made of glutinous rice paste mixed with three-in-one soil. At most, it is an ordinary version of three-in-one soil, using local materials.
The idea flashed in his mind, and Carl just said this decision directly.
Anyway, he had already checked it with the secret eye mechanism. The people in the Kowloon Walled City were all dead. It was not difficult to directly use the place there to build another place for people to live.
"Won't that lead to another concentrated infection?"
Looking at Carl with a flickering eye, Joanna was not optimistic about Carl's method.
"That's their own business. I will only do what I can. After all, I don't have much to do with them. If you insist, we are all human?"
But looking around, except for Carl, who is not sure whether he can be considered a purebred human, his teammates are tieflings, drow, orcs, and an extra dwarf.
This team composition seems to fully prove that Carl is not a human supremacist.
Compared to race, he pays more attention to things like character.
After all, the human race is too complicated.
In this world with other intelligent life, it is probably a bit narrow to simply divide the camps by race.
Especially this world does not have obvious racial camp bias like Faerun.
But even the humans in Faerun have many abstract individuals.
With a reluctant smile, Joanna sighed in her heart with a sense of loss.
As a disciple of Du Hara (the god of honor and justice) (the name of the believers of the gods of destiny), she still hopes that Carl can make a more selfless decision.
However, she soon realized that asking others to sacrifice themselves for others was not in line with Du Hala's teachings, and her idea was a bit bad.
Silently apologizing to Carl in her heart, Joanna's smile returned to sincerity.
"If I rescued healthy ordinary people outside, can I bring them to the senior?"
Although Joanna wanted to bring people into the station of Kolan Castle, this was obviously impossible. Even her classmates might not agree to it completely.
"Of course, but I just made this decision. The groundbreaking will only start in the next few days. If you want to send people here, you have to wait for at least a while."
With four engineering constructs with V amplification, the construction speed of six machines actually only takes a few days to build a camp for many people.
However, Carl also plans to explore what the thing that allows wild beasts to bypass Kowloon Walled City is during this period.
Although he felt that it was the core of a large construct before, he couldn't help fantasizing about it after finding the legendary equipment.
He has already received the pie in the sky once, why can't he receive it a second time?
After chatting for a while, Joanna and her bestie were about to say goodbye and leave.
Her bestie was the girl who cooked dragon salmon before, but the taste was the same as the chef of the Tower of Wonders.
Considering their walking speed, Carl gave them two magic motorcycles for transportation.
Unlike the portable off-road motorcycles that Carl and his friends used in the wilderness, this magic motorcycle is closer to Carl's original design, similar to Batman's Batbike in the movie "The Dark Knight".
After briefly introducing the functions of the magic motorcycle to the two, Carl watched them practice for a while in the square in front of the base, and then let them go.
"That's great, you're giving people something after just meeting for such a short time!"
As soon as he returned to the base, Carl saw Hope with a pouting mouth.
The image was following Hope like a maid, and at this time, she was standing on the same front with Hope, staring at Carl with her eyes.
"Please, isn't this for the purpose of opening up the market? The motor vehicle business between the Tongxing Dragon Pattern Family and me is still in the preparation stage. I don't know what their plans are, but I plan to test the waters with the magic motorcycle first.
The students of Kolan Castle are all rich or noble. If I give them two motorcycles as bait, others will soon take the bait."
After staring at Carl for a few minutes, Hope finally let go of the jealousy in her heart.
With Ying hugging Carl on the left and right, the two girls rubbed Carl's chin, looking like a coquettish cat.
