Chapter 81 Making Trouble for Viscount Renault in Public



“When the monsters attacked the town of Gruul, President Anno led people to assist in the battle and eventually killed hundreds of monsters, thus preventing the tragedy in the town of Gruul from happening.

With such an achievement, what's wrong with calling him a hero and having me personally greet him?"

Viscount Renault held Anno's hand and explained to the people around him.

The people who were unaware of the situation only realized at this time that Annuo and his group had actually gone to fight the monsters that attacked the villages and towns, and they had killed hundreds of monsters!

The crowd immediately started talking.

"I know this group of people, the Adventurer's Guild!"

"I heard that the people in the Adventurer's Guild are all level 1 or 2 professionals. How could such rookies kill hundreds of monsters?"

"How could the Viscount's words be false? And judging from their injuries, they must have gone through a great battle!"

"Yes, yes. I heard yesterday that the city is now looking for Captain Sharp of the Blood Scar Mercenary Group. The reason is that he fled during the battle in the town of Gruul!"

"What? The furious knight Sharp deserted the battlefield? He was a level 10 knight! Doesn't this mean that the monsters that attacked Gruul Town are very powerful?"

"It's hard to imagine how the Adventurer's Guild won!"

Hearing the discussions around him, Viscount Renault winked at Brooke.

The latter immediately stepped forward, half-knelt in front of Viscount Renault, and said loudly: "My Lord Viscount, the battle of Gruul Town took place from the night before yesterday to the early morning of yesterday. There were more than 200 monsters attacking the town, including 56 monsters above level 6! Including kobold warriors, goblin priests, harpies and other high-level monsters.

In addition, the adventurers also killed more than 5,000 slimes and a Slime King!

The Adventurer's Guild President An Nuo single-handedly killed more than thirty level 6 monsters, including level 8 and 9 monsters, and changed the situation of the battle with his own strength!"

Every word Brooke said made everyone present couldn't help but be surprised.

Many people suspected that the guard lied about his battle record.

But when a group of adventurers unloaded the broken bodies of monsters such as goblin priests and harpies from several carriages and placed them in front of everyone, everyone realized that all this was true.

Monsters like the Goblin Priest and the Harpy have never been seen by most professionals, let alone ordinary people - those who have seen them will definitely not have a chance of survival.

But now, the bodies are still in front of everyone.

Especially the harpy, whose body was torn into several pieces and placed on the ground, coupled with its appearance as a human female, made many timid people close their eyes.

The professionals in the field all turned their eyes to the young man standing with Viscount Renault.

If the guards didn't lie, how powerful must this man be to have killed more than thirty high-level monsters alone, including level 9 monsters!

Facing the admiring gazes of some people, Annuo not only did not show any pride, but instead a sad expression appeared on his face.

He looked at the crowd around him and said sadly, "It's not my credit to defeat the monsters alone. It's the work of the guards who guarded the town, the Black Widow Mercenaries, and all the adventurers.

Although our Adventurer's Guild was urgently recruited, we were also on the front lines in the battle.

During the battle, adventurers one after another fought desperately with the monsters without fear of life and death, and finally fell!

Forty-six adventurers died in the town of Gruul, more than ninety were seriously injured or disabled, and everyone was injured!

The mercenaries of the Black Widow Mercenary Group suffered heavy casualties in their efforts to resist the main force of monsters.

The guards fought until the last man, and Captain Rodney was killed in order to buy time for the people to retreat!

In the face of monsters, we united as one, disregarding life and death, and bravely killed the enemy.

Being able to defeat the monster is definitely not the credit of one person, but the result of everyone's joint efforts!"

The adventurers behind Anno straightened their backs unconsciously when Anno was speaking.

In previous battles, the adventurers mostly dealt with slimes and low-level monsters.

But for them, it was also a battle in which their lives were at stake.

Moreover, they encountered King Slime.

When the people around heard about the casualties of the adventurers, their eyes all turned to respect.

Even those who previously sneered at the Adventurer's Guild for being full of low-level professionals now admired the adventurers from the bottom of their hearts.

In this world where monsters are powerful, a group of people who have fought bloody battles with monsters and suffered heavy casualties deserve the respect of others.

An Nuo sensed the change in the atmosphere among the people around him, and suddenly changed the subject, bringing up another matter.

"But what I didn't expect was that when we were fighting desperately, Sharp Carl of the Bloodstain Mercenary Group not only fled from the battlefield, but also attacked and killed me.

If I didn't have some strength, I would not have died at the hands of the monster, but at the hands of Captain Sharp, who is also a human!"

Annuo's words were like throwing a stone into a calm lake, and the crowd immediately erupted in discussion.

"What? This is actually true!"

"The Bloodscar Mercenary Group is the second largest mercenary group in Valkham, and its captain would actually do such a thing!"

"I've long felt that the Bloodstain Mercenary Group has a bad atmosphere!"

"We must catch the traitor Sharp!"

"Catch the traitor!"

The voices in the crowd grew louder and louder, gradually turning into uniform slogans.

Viscount Renault looked at the crowd, pressed his hands down, signaling everyone to be quiet, and then said: "President Anno's words have basically been confirmed. The wanted notice for Sharp Karl has already started yesterday."

Upon hearing that a wanted warrant had been launched for Sharp, many people cheered secretly.

Renault had long wanted to take action against the Bloodstain Mercenaries, but he never had the chance.

What happened to Annuo this time gave Renault an excuse to take action.

Renault looked at Anno in front of him, his joy beyond words.

"Then President Anno, as the greatest contributor to this battle, what reward do you want?"

In response to Renault's question, everyone looked at An Nuo quietly, ready to hear what reward he wanted.

"I think An Nuo should have enough gold coins to live a worry-free life for the rest of his life!"

"I think An Nuo should accumulate merits. With the recommendation of Viscount Renault in the future, it is not impossible for him to be awarded a noble title in the kingdom!"

"The title of nobility is not so easy to obtain. A hero like An Nuo should be equipped with a sword and armor!"

"You're too narrow-minded. I think since any conditions are acceptable, then An Nuo can have Miss Lola... wuwuwu... let me go and let me finish... wuwuwu..."

When Viscount Renault asked the question, An Nuo asked Xue Feibai to take people to move the body bag off the carriage.

Forty-six body bags mean forty-six lost lives.

The crowd gradually fell silent when the body bag was opened.

Anno walked among the injured adventurers and body bags and made his request to Viscount Renault.

“I know it’s easy to say the word ‘hero’, but as a title, it must be worthy of someone who has done great deeds!

However, Lord Viscount, I hope you can award the title of "Gruul Town Defender Battle Hero" to the dead and disabled adventurers, record it in the book, and their families can also be treated well! "

If the term "hero" is just a title, the threshold is much lower. When Viscount Renault greeted everyone, he used the title "heroes".

But if one is a titled hero recorded in the books, it is not something that can be canonized casually.

If he saved a city like Valkham, it wouldn't be a big deal if he was canonized as a hero and the news spread widely.

But isn't it funny that he was given so many heroic titles just for saving a small town?

If Viscount Renault really agreed, it would be a joke.

But these adventurers who died in battle did make contributions, and even lost their lives.

Although everyone knew that it was unlikely to be awarded the title of "hero", once the words of refusal came out of Viscount Renault's mouth, it would make those who heard it, especially the surviving adventurers, feel uncomfortable.

"This kid deliberately gave me a difficult problem!"

Viscount Renault's expression remained unchanged, but he began to grumble inwardly.
