Chapter 1515. Lodel's Confession
On the top of the hill, thunderstorms and strong winds raged.
The silver-haired girl held the hilt of the sword with both hands, slowly lowered her head and knelt on the ground.
Even though the heavy rain soaked his body, his figure remained motionless like a statue.
She was really wrong.
Out of bored jealousy and possessiveness, innocent people were reduced to livestock by the goblins, suffering humiliation more painful than death.
But now that things have come to this, what can we do? More than thirty elite guards sacrificed their lives to rescue more than a hundred people who had become livestock.
Most of them were blinded by the goblins. Some even had their legs amputated. Many were tortured to the point of being insane and only wanted to die.
But, Lodel found himself unable to do it.
If all of them were granted, what would be the meaning of the Guards' sacrifice?
"The wishing lantern is really not useful." Lodel regretted ignoring Evelyn's warning.
Don't rely on wishing items until the last minute, unless you are willing to accept the worst outcome.
Fulfilling a desire is more like a curse.
She just wanted to get Lovi's complete love, no matter what the cost.
But is this really a good thing?
Laudel slowly raised her face, and a flash of lightning illuminated her cheek.
On that beautiful face, piety and regret are intertwined.
She really didn’t think that much. I don’t know how long it took, the rainstorm slowly subsided, and the world suddenly became quiet.
Lovey was sleeping soundly and could vaguely hear the noises around him.
"Warrior-Captain Lodel," Lanlan exclaimed, wagging her tail enthusiastically.
Lodel spread the bedding on the ground and distributed the black bread to everyone. "We will stay here for one more night and return tomorrow."
"What are you going to do with those people?" asked Adjutant Zoe.
"I respect their will." Water drops continued to fall from Lodel's armor, and the light from the shuriken sheath illuminated the cave. "If they want to live, I will find a way for them. If they want to die, I will kill them."
Luo Wei suddenly opened his eyes, shook his dizzy head, and climbed up from Lan Lan's knees, "I'll go and persuade them."
"You'd better not go. None of you will survive if you go." Lodel warned in a cold voice.
"Lord Lodel is right." Zoe agreed. Putting herself in the victim's shoes, she could understand the victim's mentality. She didn't want the man she secretly admired to see her filthy and irredeemable scene.
Any woman with a little dignity would not choose to live in humiliation.
Luo Wei looked at Luo Deer helplessly: "Okay, I won't go."
"Master, how about I go get some firewood?" Lan Lan's stomach growled and her pretty face felt a little hot. She wanted to get up and tried several times before she could stand up. She had rested her knees on the pillow for too long, causing the blood in her legs to not circulate smoothly.
Lodel shook her head. "You'd better not go out now. You can't see anything outside. It's too dangerous. You might get lost."
"I'll go with her." Zoe wanted to eat something hot. If the black bread wasn't softened in hot water, it would be too hard to bite it. If you're not careful, you might even knock out your teeth.
"I'll go too." Lovi was also a little impatient. Without waiting for Lodel to refuse, he gave a convincing reason.
The caster can use mental perception to detect danger in advance at night, so that everyone's safety can be guaranteed.
"Why don't you just stay still?" Lodel bit her lips unwillingly, unable to utter the words that she wanted to stop him forcefully.
Finally, only two people were left in the cave, and the rest of the people went out.
There was no need to worry about water sources, as the heavy rain had filled the pots, pans and wooden barrels with water. All we had to do was find some branches and wood.
So, the low shrubs on the hills became the primary target.
The branches and wood were quickly collected and piled together. The wet outer skin was cut open and the inside was relatively dry.
Lowe lit the torch and handed it to the guard in charge of making the fire.
He didn't know why the fire had to be made outside the cave entrance. He watched the guard fiddle with it for a long time, but the fire didn't start and even seemed to be going out.
Lodel called another guard to help with a torch.
With the efforts of the two, they finally ignited a pile of wet firewood.
Seeing the blazing fire, the crowd cheered. The thick black smoke was particularly choking.
Lan Lan, who was standing downwind to join in the fun, was teary-eyed. "It's time to eat. We can finally eat."
The water in the panda butler's iron pot was boiled, and the meat and vegetables of the Dwarf Tyrannosaurus were thrown into it.
The meat of the jungle wolf spider has been eaten up because it is so delicious, so we can only make do with it.
Luo Deer didn't know when he took off his armor and changed into dry clothes. "Lo Wei, if you want more people to survive, give me this meat."
"Okay, take it all." Lovi guessed that Lodel would distribute the meat to the survivors and maybe even give an inspiring speech.
In fact, Lodel didn't say a word from beginning to end. After taking the meat away, he came to the cave.
It was distributed to those who had become livestock.
The meat of the Nanotyrannus was not tasty. After a few days, it tasted even worse.
But many people shed tears of happiness.
"I'll give you one last night. Tell me whether you're dead or alive." Before leaving, Lodel handed the remaining meat to Volme, "Eat some."
"I lost my husband to save these losers." A deep hatred was revealed on Wolmei's face. "Why? They still want to die. Why?"
Her voice was filled with murderous intent and hatred.
Lodel didn't care and said calmly: "Kill all the goblins and avenge Wolf."
"Okay." Volme looked at Lodel's back as he left.
From then on, killing all the goblins became her only creed in life.
Lodel was tired, and when she returned to Lovey, exhausted both physically and mentally, her steps were a little staggering.
Reaching out to take the vegetable soup handed over by Lovi, Lodel said as he drank, "Thirty-four members of the Guards Regiment died in this battle. Among them, there were sixteen male soldiers and eighteen female soldiers."
Luo Wei was slightly startled, "Why is the sacrifice rate of male soldiers so high!"
Men only have one-third of the number of women. As a result, many families will break up.
"Goblins may go easy on women, but they will fight to the death against men." Rodale paused, put down the bowl and continued, "Casualties: nine people were seriously injured, and three male guards permanently lost their reproductive ability. The rest are mostly disabled. It is expected that the seriously injured will retire, and there are more than 50 people with minor injuries."
Luo Wei stared at the ground in silence. "I see. You want to talk about the pension, right?"
Lodel nodded slightly: "Yes, and there are also these people who applied for the maid job. Because of our negligence, they suffered this disaster. They also need to be compensated more or less."
Work setting: 01: Lodel did not wish for the maid to get into trouble. Her wish was to obtain Lovi's complete love, but her wish was deliberately misinterpreted by the wishing lantern.
02: The Wishing Lantern is an evil thought imprisoned in gold, which will do everything it can to pollute those who approach it. It will influence the target's faith and corrupt them by creating various events.
03: The main culprit in the maid incident is the Goblin, and the wishing lantern has a certain butterfly effect.
