"Mr. Warrior...are you okay?" Sislia noticed Li Lin's slightly changed expression and asked, "You don't look very well."
Li Lin took a deep breath of cool air and calmed himself down. "Huh... I'm fine. I just suddenly thought of a question."
"Problem? Is it about the fire dragon?" Sislia blinked, the curious expression on her face never faded.
At this point, Balant finally lost his patience and slammed the table, scolding, "Sislia! Behave yourself in front of our guests!"
"oh……"
Seeing that her father was really angry, Sislia restrained herself, lowered her eyes, pursed her lips and looked lost.
A daughter is the apple of her father's eye. When Balant saw Cecelia's expression, the flame of anger that had just ignited in his heart was immediately extinguished.
"Don't bother the warrior. Go to the kitchen and help your mother. She's been giving me a hard time again because of the dragon incident."
He sighed, his tone much calmer. "Winter is coming soon, and this winter won't pass peacefully... We must be prepared for any eventuality."
"It's huge..."
Before Sislia could finish her words, she secretly observed her father's expression and noticed that his face was about to become gloomy again, so she immediately stopped asking the question she was about to ask.
"I see."
"Now that you know, why don't you go?"
Sislia had a hint of dissatisfaction on her face. She stuck out her tongue and made a face at Balant, then hurried out of the meeting room.
As she stepped over the threshold, she turned back and winked at Li Lin with her left eye, smiling.
"This kid..." Balant turned his gaze back to Li Lin and gave him an apologetic and awkward smile.
"This girl has been spoiled by Nicola and me since she was a child. If I have offended you in any way, I hope you will forgive me. I apologize to you on her behalf and on behalf of my wife."
"What are you talking about? It was the dragon that brought trouble to your family. It's not your fault."
As he spoke, Li Lin recalled the attributes of Sislia's "protagonist halo" just now.
In fact, this so-called "halo" was not what he imagined. It was just like himself, a blessing of "luck" and "affinity".
Li Lin believes that, strictly speaking, the "system panel" in his mind is the real "protagonist halo".
After all, according to Zuo Yin, he represents the last "hope" of the earth and is a person blessed by the world.
This [Mechanic System] is very likely the last gift the Earth has bestowed upon him...
Li Lin's mind was in a mess, and he continued to chat with Balant. Most of the time, it was the other party who was talking, especially the stories of other warriors who had stayed in Yuncong Village briefly before and were eager to obtain the title of "Dragon Slayer".
However, almost a week had passed since the last warrior left the clouds for the border.
The news about the dragon remains.
Not only him, but also the warriors before him, no one has been able to return so far.
"Warrior, let me tell you, with the border in such chaos right now, those warriors up ahead might not have died under the dragon's fiery breath."
Balant stuffed a handful of peanuts into his mouth, chewing them while saying, "I'm not saying this, but those Noxians hate every Demacian with utmost hatred.
"Forgive my harsh words, but according to those bastards, even if you weren't a soldier, once they found you, they would cut off your head and stick it on the battle flag, and then cut off your ears to claim their military merits..."
"Do you still want to look for the dragon?"
Li Lin nodded without hesitation, "Of course, that dragon will definitely die in my hands."
The first time I kill a dragon, the system will definitely give me a generous reward.
And I have already determined its location, and it will not involve the battlefield of friction on the border between Demacia and Noxus.
"Okay... I understand."
Seeing the confident and resolute expression on Li Lin's face, Balant sighed deeply.
The dozen or so brave men he had entertained before, regardless of their age, were all as confident as he was.
What a pity...
Now their lives are in danger.
Balant knew that he could not persuade Li Lin, and he also knew that people like him who "practiced martial arts" were generally very stubborn, so he simply said nothing more to avoid making him unhappy.
He was silent for a moment, then raised his glass and said, "Come, stay at my house tonight. Let me treat you well, and we'll set off tomorrow morning."
"This..." Li Lin's face was a little hesitant.
"Don't refuse. It's a great honor for us to have a warrior come to Yuncong Village!" Balant said with a bright smile. "Let's drink tonight, just this one night! Once you go to the border, opportunities like this won't be many."
After a few seconds of quick thinking, Li Lin smiled and raised his glass to clink with him, "Thank you very much for your hospitality."
…
…
The moon is high in the sky and the night is deep.
The silvery moonlight cast a veil over the Demacia plains, reflecting the clear and flowing Milky Way.
After Li Lin and Balant finished their drinks, the village chief took his guest for a stroll around the village.
When the sun sets, the young and middle-aged people in the village return home after finishing their day's work.
When he heard that another warrior had come to Yuncong to look for the dragon, he immediately came to Crowfield's house and had dinner with Li Lin and the village chief's family, and had a good time together.
