"Mr. Herbert, I want to join the correctional agency. If the reason is, I don't want to die"
Looking at the smiling child in front of him, Herbert's heart tightened, and he...was he wrong?He is just a child, at this age he should sit in school instead of fighting those polluted bodies to the death.
No... No, the pupils condensed quickly. In order to protect Pedan, someone must be sacrificed, including myself.
A very far-fetched smile appeared on the resolute and square face.
"It will be very dangerous, and you will fight against pollutants. Have you really considered it?"
Augustus looked at the human in front of him. This was a strange human. He clearly wanted to join by himself, but now he seemed to be hesitating again.
"Yes, I need potions"
"OK, I see"
Herbert's tone dropped a bit. Every bottle of potion was collected by the awakened people at the risk of their lives. It is very precious. He, Herbert, is not qualified to give this little gentleman a copy for free. .
Tread~
The tall body stood up from the sofa, he bent down to pick up the belt on the giant sword, and hung the heavy black giant sword on his back.
With the giant sword on his back, Herbert looked at the little gentleman in front of him.
"By the way, do you need to say goodbye to her before leaving?"
Hearing this, Augustus looked at the figure lying on the sofa. This human woman... I feel a little strange about her. I don't hate her, but I don't care too much. On the contrary, after the scene last night After the play, she seemed to care about herself a lot.
However, something has to be done to maintain the personality.
Augustus looked away and looked at Herbert who was already standing.
"Have you any paper and pen with you, Mr. Herbert?"
"Take it~"
As the answer fell, he seemed to have been ready for a long time and threw a wide palm, a notebook and a pen.
He reached out to catch the notebook and pen.
This guy... is too proficient. It seems that this guy should have done a lot of things like this. Thinking in his heart, he looked at the note in his hand.
A pen hangs above the notebook.
Take off the pen and hold it, open the notebook, there are many tear marks on it, it seems that I am not the first user.
Shasha~
The pen in my hand started writing, and the pen stopped after 1 minute.
Shasha~
Tear off the paper and put it on the tea table and press it with an empty tea cup.
"Well, Mr. Herbert, we can go now."
"Well, let's go then"
........
Chapter 261 Devotee Herbert
Tread~
Herbert took a step, and the equipment he was wearing made his steps a little heavy. He walked in front and heard no footsteps around him. Herbert turned his head slightly and looked at the back behind him from the corner of his eye. He was still standing on the spot , seems to be reluctance, reluctance...
【Herbert, you are really a sinner~】
Tread~
The heavy steps continued.
Looking at the figure in front of him who had almost reached the gate, Augustus knew that the performance was almost done and it was time to follow up.
【Then what fun will you bring me in this world without gods? 】
Tread~
One big and one small, one tall and tall with a big black sword on his back, the other looks immature and young, wearing a set of cute rabbit pajamas, the styles of the two are almost completely incompatible, but In this way, they walked down the street together.
While following Mr. Herbert in front, Augustus looked at the human cities in this world.
The architectural style of the double-storey building in the middle ages, the roofs are all red tiles, the streets are clean and wide, with pedestrian passages on both sides, the streets on both sides of the road are mostly window-based, and there are goods in the window, snacks and clothes... ., It seems that there are still quite a lot of pedestrians in the morning, and occasionally a few carriages will run past in the middle of the street.
Tread~
Following closely the pace of the person in front, he looked up at the street lights on the street.
The height of the street lamp is about three meters, and it has a square glass shape. Through the transparent glass, you can see the lamp oil inside. It seems that there is no such thing as electricity in this world.
Tread~!
The sound of footsteps ahead suddenly stopped.
Augustus stopped in his tracks, looked up and saw that Herbert had indeed stopped in his tracks.
A woman wearing an apron and a gray coarse skirt with a vegetable basket in her hand stood in front of Herbert.
The two stood like this.
Looking at the two, August poked his head out from the right, as if he had encountered a small incident.
The figure is out of shape, the woman with traces of fatigue on her face looks very sloppy, the chestnut hair looks very greasy, it should have not been washed for a while, the expression on a pretty face is... Hate!Hate for Herbert.
The woman's hand reached into the vegetable basket.
"Crack~!"
An egg fell onto Herbert's face accurately in this way, and the broken egg yolk splashed around along with the egg liquid.
Augustus took a step back silently. This was a personal dispute. With the skill of the man in front of him, it would be very easy to hide. However, he did not hide, but chose to bear it silently.
The tall figure stood quietly in place, motionless.
Sand~
The vegetable basket was thrown to the ground by the woman.
The slightly thick and rough-looking hands began to greet Herbert.
"Why! Why didn't you die"
"Why didn't you die!"
...
There were wailing and malicious curses, and the strength of the woman's hands and feet was completely unreserved, and every hit on Herbert's body made a thumping sound.
Seeing the tall and motionless figure standing in place, Augustus' fiery red pupils condensed slightly. Sure enough, Herbert is a skilled worker. He has definitely done similar things before, and he is definitely not the first one he recruited. It definitely won't be the last.
Pedestrians on the road ignored this scene, no one watched, and no one came up to stop it.
"Woooo`"
It seemed that she was tired, or maybe she was sad. The woman just sat on the street and covered her face and cried bitterly.
The motionless Herbert finally made a movement, his expressionless face lowered, looking at the woman sitting slumped and crying on the street for a few seconds, and after a few seconds, Herbert took a step forward and squatted down, stretching out his big hands The vegetable basket turned over on the ground was straightened, and then the scattered vegetables were twisted into the vegetable basket again. To be honest, these vegetables were not as big as his hands, so his actions seemed a little funny.
The flaming pupils are staring at the back of the squatting cabbage. These vegetables look strange. Except for the eggs, these vegetables are all root-shaped, smooth in appearance, and there are three colors, yellow, black, and white. Except for the different colors, they look almost exactly the same. The only difference may be the difference in stubby.
After twisting all the vegetables into the basket, Herbert gently put the basket back in front of the woman.
Tread~
The tall body stood up, and he continued to walk forward without saying anything.
Looking at the figure in front of him, Augustus continued to step up and followed, and continued to move forward like this.
Tread~
The walking figures in front slowed down, one big and one small turned into walking side by side.
"Mr. Augustus, do you have anything to ask?"
Hearing Herbert's question, Augustus glanced at him. The upright face was expressionless, and his eyes were fixed on the front. This guy is a qualified devotee. If it was him, he would never bear it silently. No matter what the reason was for that kind of treatment, I would never bear it silently.
"Mr. Herbert, why should I ask?"
"Aren't you curious about what happened just now?"
"Curious, but I won't ask you anything. No matter how you choose, it's your choice, Mr. Herbert."
"Well, is that so?"
"Mr. Augustus didn't expect you to be a rationalist"
"The husband of the lady just now was introduced to the correction agency by me, and he failed to come back during a mission."
Tread~
Herbert stopped in his tracks, and stood in front of Augustus with a tall figure. The tall figure squatted down without touching his knees, and stared at the fiery red pupils with bright but full of vicissitudes of life.
Meeting the gaze of the devotee, Augustus did not look away.
"So I'm asking you for the last time, are you sure you want to join the correction agency? If you want to live as an ordinary person now, you can actually live for about ten years. As long as you don't use your awakening ability during this period, the pollution degree will will not increase faster”
"But once you join the Correction Agency, you need to complete the tasks sent by the Correction Agency to fight the pollution body. In bad situations, you may also encounter wandering ancient beasts."
His pupils became cautious and his tone became more serious.
"You may not live ten years"
The fiery red vertical pupil stared at the tall figure in front of him, did this devotee change his mind because of what happened just now?What an unqualified devotee.
"Thank you for your advice, Mr. Herbert, but I want to live longer, and I want to go to the outer city to find my parents, although I also know that this possibility is unlikely"
Bite the cherry red thin lips lightly.
"However, they may also be as lucky as me and escape to other cities."
Chapter 262
After listening to the little gentleman's answer, Herbert fell into a brief silence. It seems that the little gentleman also has his own choice.
"Really, I know Mr. Xiao, you also have your own choice"
"I'm making sure the last time, Mr., once you join the correctional organization, you can't quit. The correctional organization will pour resources on you to train you to be a qualified corrector. Correspondingly, you have to shoulder the responsibility of guarding the city." Obligation, are you sure you want to join? Mr. Xiao"
"Mr. Herbert, I'm sure"
What a dedicated devotee, if you want to leave, you can leave if you want.
"Okay, I see, Mr. Little"
Herbert didn't say anything more, his tall body stood up, and he already understood the choice of this little gentleman.
Tread~
The footsteps continued to step out, and Augustus continued to keep up.
After turning a corner in the front street, a large building appeared on the opposite side of the street. The building was surrounded by high walls, and there were people in uniform standing guard at the door, holding firecrackers in their hands. weapons, although they wore corrector-style uniforms, they did not have badges representing corrector status.
Tread~
The people stationed at the door saw that Herbert didn't say anything, just like a pile of wooden carvings.
Following Herbert into the gate, Augustus glanced at a few people stationed at the gate. These guys didn't wear corrector badges, but they also had a polluted smell on their bodies, and it seemed...not human.
Noticing that the footsteps behind him had slowed down, Herbert stopped and looked back at the figure following him. He was carefully sizing up the guards at the door.
Did you notice this?What a talent, the resolute gaze softened a little.
"Little Mr. August, have you noticed?"
Hearing the sound, Augustus turned his head and looked forward. In front, Herbert stood there and looked at him.
"Um"
Augustus nodded, looking at the square and resolute face.
"Mr. Herbert, those at the door should not be human~"
"Oh? How do you say it?"
"Their breath is different from ours, a bit like those wild things"
