Chapter 57



Chapter 57

==================

Under everyone's gaze, Lian Yun changed direction and walked towards Fiona with Buck.

When the other person saw Lian Yun, he understood what she meant and took a few steps forward.

When Lian Yun got closer, Fiona's eyes moved back and forth between Lian Yun and Buck beside her. She bit her lower lip and said, "Maybe you can take me with you."

She can't live here anymore.

After burying her husband, she no longer had a place to stay in Kuoge City.

She met Buck's emotionless gaze, lowered her head slightly, and seemed to let go of her arrogance: "As a half-succubus, you have a lot of potential to be discovered. I can help you..."

"Come with us." Lian Yun interrupted her with a smile and extended his hand to her.

Fiona raised her head blankly, looked at the palm of her hand that was open to her, and then looked at Lian Yun's serious expression.

There was a ripple in her light green eyes.

Lian Yun lowered his voice and said, "The town may not be as well-developed as Kuoge City, but the people there are very nice. You can do whatever you want."

Fiona quickly lowered her head to hide the tears in her eyes.

"Okay." Buck heard her relieved voice.

Quoge was a relatively traditional town, somewhat exclusive to non-human races. When Fiona's husband was still alive, she often stayed at home for long periods of time, fearing that her identity would be exposed.

After her identity was exposed, Fiona attracted a lot of attention.

Lian Yun knew this was a bad habit, especially since she also shouldered the heavy responsibility of maintaining peace among the races. However, changing long-held beliefs required careful planning, and she already had some plans in mind.

A woman with fiery red curly hair walked out from the crowd, with her slender and tall figure, slowly walked out of the city gate, left Kuoge City, and walked into Lian Yun's team.

Fang Suo stood at the city gate holding a little girl's hand and said goodbye to Lian Yun and the others.

Seeing Lian Yun approaching, the little girl let go of Fang Suo's hand, threw herself on Lian Yun, and kissed her on the cheek: "Thank you, sister! I can go to school tomorrow!"

Lian Yun pinched Kuokuo's little face with an auntie smile: "What do you want to learn?"

Kuo Kuo clenched his fists and held them in front of him, revealing a resolute expression: "I want to learn how to fight monsters like Sister Fang Suo!"

Lian Yun's smile froze, and he looked at Lana beside him with suspicion: "Is this what they teach in school?"

Lanna nodded. "Besides teaching the most basic literacy and mathematics, the school mainly teaches combat, cooking, forging, tailoring... and magic, but learning magic requires talent."

...Is that so?

Lian Yun thought about it and found that there was indeed nothing wrong with it.

In this age surrounded by monsters, even if you can create a world-famous masterpiece, if you don’t have any special skills in life and are powerless to fight back against monsters, you will not be able to survive.

No wonder people here value education so much.

What the schools here teach is not just what is taught in books, but also the skills and abilities to save lives.

"Study hard!" Lian Yun encouraged Kuo Kuo earnestly, "I hope to see you on the leaderboard in the mission hall one day."

The mission hall has introduced an incentive system. Every month, the strongest mission performers will be selected and ranked. The person in charge of the mission hall will distribute incentive bounties based on the rankings.

This also adds an income for them.

Lian Yun waved at Fang Suo, then looked at Pei Si beside him.

Pei Si lowered his head, his voice slightly reluctant, "Now that you're gone, I'll send letters to report to you regularly. I hope you can send a new city lord soon."

"Who said I'm going to send a new city lord?" Lian Yun raised his eyebrows.

Peth looked up in surprise.

"You've done a great job as an administrator. Why would you let someone who suddenly appears and knows nothing about Quoge City overpower you?"

Pei Si opened his mouth, obviously not yet fully agreeing with Lian Yun's words.

Lian Yun didn't give her a chance to speak and continued, "Not only might they be completely clueless, they might also restrict your thinking in every way. Even if they're someone I send here, there's no guarantee they won't one day become as selfish as the previous city lord."

"In other words, is there anyone else who is more passionate about Quoge City than you?"

Peth blinked, suddenly realizing.

She could not and was unwilling to let Kuoge City fall into the hands of someone who was inferior to her just because of a vacant title.

This time, it was thanks to Lord Lianyun’s help and generous donations that Kuoge City was able to come back to life and even become better.

What if they weren't there?

The best way to avoid risk is to leave no room for creating risk.

"I understand." Peth nodded.

"There are still some things we need to study together, so I will send a Mr. Cornelius to deliver letters every few days. I hope you won't panic then."

"Cornelius?" Peth racked his brains and finally remembered that extremely rare bird.

"Yes, he's an orc, not a monster. Don't hurt him by mistake." Lian Yun warned, "He's my friend and doesn't like to be offended. If someone attacks him, who knows who will get hurt."

Peth nodded seriously. "I'll issue a notice to remind everyone, and this gentleman's information will also be posted in the mission hall."

This is the first step of Lian Yun’s plan.

Lian Yun assigned Xiaohong the task of delivering letters back and forth so that Pei Si could contact them at any time if he had any problems.

At the same time, it can also allow the people of Kuoge City to gradually become familiar with races other than humans and get closer to their lives.

Xiaohong fits in with the crowd more easily than Aibei, and the two are friends.

She believes that Xiaohong will also have some positive influence on Aibei.

Before leaving, Lian Yun took out two sound transmission notes from the lucky bag, gave one to Pei Si and the other to Fang Suo.

"This is for emergencies. If there's an emergency and you don't have time to send a message, use this to tell me. One talisman can transmit half a minute of voice."

The two men took it solemnly and said goodbye to her.

Lian Yun waved his hand, turned around and walked outside.

There were five of them when they came, and they left with a whole team behind them.

Nora, Fiona, the pharmacist, and three teachers carrying backpacks containing all their belongings.

"Thank you for your hard work." Lian Yun said to the three teachers.

They hurriedly shook their heads.

Among the teachers that Lanna and his men selected to leave Kuoge City, they were the rare three who had not settled down in Kuoge City.

There was no other reason, they felt that Kuoge City was just a temporary place, and one day they would return to the main city to teach.

So they were brought together.

In fact, although they shook their heads, some of them still felt unbalanced.

One of the three taught general subjects. He knew that his qualifications were average, and Lanner offered an attractive salary, so he had no complaints.

The other two are a famous chef and an intermediate magician from the Magicians Association.

No matter how you look at it, they shouldn't be teaching in a legendary "run-down town".

After Lian Yun said goodbye and left, the chef quietly approached and muttered, "What the hell, what kind of food can there be in the desert? Am I going to teach them how to make wine from sand?"

Another magician curled his lips in agreement. "They themselves said it was just 'ordinary', with very few people. It's definitely not a place favored by the gods. There's definitely no child with magical talent."

He rolled his eyes and said, "You can teach sand how to make wine, but I can only teach air."

When the third teacher heard what the two said, he glanced at Lana who was following closely behind them, and calmly distanced himself from them.

Lian Yun, who was walking in front, was listening to Fiona and Buck chatting.

When Fiona heard that Buck was an abandoned child, she hugged him in anger and said, "Poor child, isn't this the reason why there are so few of us succubi? I don't know what huge mistake we made!"

Buck broke free from her embrace with an expressionless face. Fiona ruffled Buck's hair without being surprised. "So cute."

Lian Yun: ...Is this the eyes of a mother?

Lian Yun couldn't help but speak up: "I heard that you succubi are very fond of the younger generation, right?"

Fiona raised her eyebrows: "Can't you see?"

...I can see it.

"But Buck's former village was once cursed by a succubus."

Lian Yun briefly described the situation to Fiona.

Fiona was interested at first, but fell into deep thought after hearing the rest.

"Hmm... what you said is indeed very strange. Very strange."

Fiona bit her lower lip and expressed her thoughts: "We Succubi are very fond of the younger generation. It's not so much a habit of ours as it is a rule that runs in our bones."

"This is a rule that has existed since the Succubus appeared. Because our numbers are so small, we must support each other and take care of each other's children to ensure the survival of the race."

"So, if it weren't for the irreconcilable hatred, we would absolutely never harm our own kind."

She twirled her fingers through her curls, thinking, "Rather than wanting to harm you, it's more like she's holding something back."
