Chapter 102: Accepted as a Dog
Kingdom of Anor, the royal city.
A sneaky man stopped a passerby in a dark alley and said, "Brother, do you want to see some good stuff?"
Before the passerby could answer, the man suddenly opened his coat!
"Pervert!" Passersby quickly covered their eyes, but the man said helplessly: "What pervert, look carefully, I'm selling photo stones."
The so-called photo stone is a magical stone that can record and copy images after special treatment. It is an indispensable item for people's daily life.
"The good stuff in Bed City has been sold out recently. I managed to get this much with great difficulty."
The man said in a very seductive tone: "Anything produced by the Shadow Brotherhood must be top quality!"
The passerby suddenly realized and became excited: "Is this a scene of Sean going berserk?"
The man smiled and nodded.
"This is a banned film in the kingdom. If you miss me, you will never have another chance in your life."
"I want it, I want it! I absolutely have to see this!"
The news of the rampage in the Sean Underground City spread across the continent within half a month, not only because the rampage led to the death of an earl, but also because of a video -
The majestic dragon hunting armor and storm dragons walked on the earth. The dark clouds, strong winds, and falling thunder made the grand scene look like a god descending to the earth. Thunder and lightning killed those who desecrated the dungeon, while the innocent people following behind them were unharmed.
The video begins with the dragon hunting armor entering the city and ends with endless thunderstorms submerging the Bedard family mansion.
Sold out!
This is such a rare scene, people must take a look!
The Storm Dragon and the Dragon Hunter Armor sparked a heated discussion in the Kingdom of Anor. Everyone wanted to know who they were, what their past was like, and what part of their story was recorded in the Senn Dungeon.
More people are in awe of the dungeon. The long period of comfort has made them forget that the dungeon will also go out of control if it gets anxious.
A sense of uneasiness was brewing among the crowd, but at this moment, someone suddenly stood up and said:
"Innocent people are not killed in the Thane Dungeon. If you don't believe me, watch the video!"
The speaker listed in detail the actions of Count Philip and the Light Eagle Group, and combined with history to prove that it was their offensive actions that led to the rampage in the underground city, because there really were people in history who did exactly the same thing as Count Philip and suffered the same consequences!
The dungeon only killed people from that faction, while innocent people, adventurers, etc. were safe and sound.
This rumor quickly gained momentum in a short period of time, as if someone was planning it. Overnight, the panic that people had just felt about the dungeon was instantly reversed.
Even because the victims were the annoying nobles and bloodthirsty mercenaries, the Sen Dungeon even gained some goodwill from the lower-class people.
There was also a bard who seized the business opportunity and made a fortune by composing a song called "Sean, the Evil-Relieving Man". He was also the one who composed the previous hit song of Earl Philip.
Unfortunately, the film was only on sale for a few days before the king issued a ban, prohibiting the sale of the film nationwide.
After all, the dead were nobles, and this was a provocation to the dignity of the rulers.
People thought the king would take some measures to control the dungeon of Thane. However, apart from banning the sale of images, the king did nothing, which is puzzling.
He handed over the handling of Thane to the newly appointed Count of Bedard, Philip's eldest son, Charon.
And what will the latter do when faced with the dungeon of Sion that killed his father?
Bed City, suburbs.
Charon, dressed in gorgeous new clothes, stood in front of Count Philip's tomb, with his head down and silent.
As the new earl, he dismissed his guards and stayed here alone.
The guards stood in the distance, looking at his appearance and whispering: "Lord Philip has passed away. I'm sure the Earl will be very sad, right?"
They saw Charon kneeling on one knee in front of Philip's tomb, which further confirmed the guards' suspicions.
He stroked the tombstone and said:
"Father, you died well,"
Charon smiled with relief.
"It's a pity that he died too early, leaving me with a lot of mess,"
"In order to solve the mess you left behind, we gave away more than half of our family's assets, including the most profitable industries. I was reluctant to give them up, but if I didn't do that, the soldiers from other cities would come to our door."
"The family has to pay for the repairs to the city. The Light Eagle Group is still pressuring me to pay compensation. The king is also putting pressure on me. The people of Bed City have a worsening reputation for the family."
He talked on and on for a long time, as if he wanted to get out all his worries.
"But I am better than you, Father," Charon stood up and looked down at the tombstone. "I will definitely do better."
"Not only to prove it to you, but also to prove it to those bastards who abandoned me."
His fists were clenched so hard that they made a creaking sound, but his expression didn't change.
It was once said that Charon was abandoned by the gold-level adventure team because his strength was not up to par.
This has almost become his obsession, and his father is partial to Sally, and it seems that he will pass the family inheritance to that illegitimate son.
Charon was very sad. He wanted to prove to everyone that he was not a bad person. To this end, he once went astray and formed an alliance with people he absolutely should not associate with.
During the days when he left Bed City, he lied that he was doing business abroad, but he was actually doing things for those "people". After Sean went berserk and Count Philip died, he hurried back - with a team of mercenaries of unknown origin but strong strength.
This time, he showed his vigorous and decisive approach to handling things, and solved the mess left by Philip in the shortest possible time, intending to help the Bed family, which was almost dying, rise again in the future.
By the way, Sally and his brave companions were driven away. It may not be accurate to say driven away, but in any case they did leave Bed City and their whereabouts are unknown.
And there is Wilder, who cleared his name with his heroic act of sacrificing himself to save his father - although Philip deserved to die - and is now living happily with Pikachu.
Many people were shocked that he could tame monsters, and they came to ask him about it. There were a large number of visitors every day, so he didn't dare to go out.
"Sean. The strength it has shown is stronger than my current ally."
Charon suddenly looked at a big tree in the distance. A bat was hanging upside down on the treetop. In broad daylight, the bat did not rest but stared at him motionlessly.
"I have to think carefully about which party is worthy of my trust and even following."
He patted the dirt off his knees, turned around and left without any reluctance.
The guards quickly followed, guarding Charon closely.
The Bed family now has a bad reputation. Although the monsters entering the city did not cause any civilian deaths, many people's homes were destroyed.
Everyone vented their anger on the Bedard family, blaming Count Philip for provoking the dungeon. If Charon went out alone, he might be pelted with rotten eggs.
Regarding the Sean Dungeon, which could be said to have murdered his father, he made this decision:
Count Philip's order was rescinded and everything went on as usual.
Not only that, the Bed family will bear part of the cost for people's teleportation crystals and resurrection, and actively support adventurers in exploring dungeons. Of course, the premise of all this is that whenever adventurers have new discoveries, they must report the information to the Bed family, and they don't have to sell the items they obtain.
This should be considered as a gesture to the Sion Dungeon, right?
The owner of the dungeon saw all this, but had no time to care about him for the time being.
At this moment, Gong Qiying was staring at the world map in front of him in a daze.
The map is still colorful, but the green color has obviously increased, even covering the entire continent.
Although it can only be measured in "points" instead of "pieces", this shows that his influence has increased.
The area around Bed City has been completely dyed with his color, and it is pleasing to the eye no matter how you look at it.
From time to time, a few letters would appear on the altar. One of the gray letters read:
"Well done! Love from the Stone Dungeon!"
The sea-blue letter was full of gentle concern and a subtle request for a meeting. I guess the person who wrote this letter must be a gentle girl.
All these were thrown aside by Gong Qiying. Ever since he went berserk, letters have been arriving here every day.
But the dark blue letter is what he needs most right now.
It was a letter from the Ashtar Alliance.
"Thank you for joining us. The alliance is more glorious because of you. For the pure bloodline!"
"The Alliance has collected some information for you about the Dungeon of Evil Nest ruled by the hybrid demons. I think you must need it."
