The mercenaries will probably stay in Boulder Town for a while.

During this period, the mercenaries who received a large amount of bounty gave full play to their life-long indulgence and spent all the money in their pockets in Boulder Town.

In order to welcome these newly-minted gods, the residents of Boulder Town racked their brains.

Food, equipment, women... the townspeople gathered around the mercenaries and made a lot of money.

Xiuyi was very interested in building a new village from scratch, so he went to the vicinity of Shita Mountain to select a site.

The ruins of the two previous villages will not be used anymore, and choosing a site for the new village is actually not very difficult.

The area near Shita Mountain is pretty good. The location of the new village only needs to be close to Shita River.

Lilith and Madam Bulma will be back in two days.

Viscount Hocas sent the mother and daughter back to her parents' home before attacking Stone Tower Mountain. Now that he has cleared out all the goblins in Stone Tower Mountain, it is natural for him to bring them home.

Shuichi had some expectations for Lilith.

After all, he never had a girlfriend in his previous life...

Although Lilith is still young, only 9 years old.

But... isn't Shuichi also only 8 years old~~

The cultivation of a loli is very exciting just thinking about it.

In the words of Viscount Hocas, Lilith is well-behaved and obedient, and especially knows how to care for others.

Mrs. Bulma is gentle, easy to get along with, and a very nice person.

Although... Xiuyi felt that since his father-in-law praised him so much, he should at least believe half of it, right?

As for the parents' side, Baudelaire and Kogas led a team of dozens of people to pick them up, so there shouldn't be any problem.

Shuichi originally wanted to go back to Logi Town himself to pick up his parents, but Viscount Hocas looked unhappy... He still didn't want Shuichi to leave his sight.

At least, that was the case until Shuichi and Lilith met and had their engagement ceremony.

Shuichi also understood Viscount Hocas's concerns, and with Knight Baudelaire personally leading the team to pick up his parents, Shuichi felt relieved.

Not only that, the old man Bocolanchi wanted Xiuyi to listen to his lectures for at least an hour every night, and Xiuyi agreed.

From this moment on, Xiuyi deeply realized what it meant to be helpless.

When he had no identity, he could ignore Viscount Hocas and Master Bocolanchi.

But after the three of them established the relationship of father-in-law and son-in-law, and master and apprentice, Viscount Hocas treated him like his own son and would unconditionally agree to anything Xiuyi needed.

Sometimes, even when the items Xiuyi bought were more economical, he would still feel that Xiuyi was wronging himself and was committing a sin by insisting on buying them.

I really raise him as my own son.

Even though Xiuyi knew very well that Viscount Hocas's purpose in doing this was nothing more than playing the emotional card.

But his heart is not made of iron, so he would be more or less touched.

The situation is similar with the old man...

So Xiuyi gradually began to realize that he regarded Viscount Hocas and old man Bocolanchi as one family.

Shuichi has finished reading the diary of the bald man Pollot. There is actually quite a bit of information recorded in it, but it is not systematic.

The bald man obviously had mental problems, so his diary was also incomplete.

Sometimes when it comes to a crucial moment, the guy would suddenly come up with a brainteaser and write something else on the next line.

The level of fragmentation is three times better than those shitty authors who liked to fragment, use water words, and enter the palace when Xiuyi was reading novels in his previous life.

In desperation, Xiuyi could only rely on Master Bokolangqi's one-hour lecture every night to answer his questions.

The most important noun among them is "the inner world".

The term "other world" reminded Shuichi of a horror game he played in his previous life, "Silent Hill".

The protagonist of the game can switch between the [front world] and the [inner world] through a mirror.

Simply put, there are many strange monsters in the [other world].

When Shuichi took the [Otherworld] to ask Boko Langqi, the old man was a little surprised.

Because in his opinion, Shuichi probably doesn't have any channels to access things related to the [other world].

There were only the old man and Shuichi in the study tonight. When Shuichi asked about the "other world", the old man's expression was a little uncertain.

It seemed as if even the dim light seemed a little dimmer.

"Did Hocas tell you that?" Without waiting for Xiuyi to respond, Master Bocolanqi shook his head and said, "Impossible, that guy wouldn't have told you that on his own initiative."

"Um, teacher, that's actually the case." Shuichi hesitated for a moment, and finally took out the bald man's diary from his new shoulder bag.

He put the diary on the table and pushed it towards the old man sitting opposite him.

"Diary?" The old man held up his half-moon glasses, opened the diary and took a look: "Whose diary? Borlot? Who is this person?"

“Well… he’s the head of a branch of the Blood God Cult, and he’s the one who kidnapped me…” Xiuyi briefly talked about his entanglement with the bald man: “Later, he asked me to use the [Cursed Relic] to make a card. I made a gold-level artifact, and used the power of that artifact to kill him…”

Although Xiuyi's words were vague, the old man knew very well how dangerous it was.

He sighed with empathy and gently touched Shuichi's head: "Kid, it's all over... Everything will be fine..."

Although he had already guessed about Shuichi's situation, after listening to Shuichi's story, Boko Langqi still felt a sense of fear.

If Shuichi hadn't exploded in the face of the bald man, he would have been killed by the bald man after being defeated...

It is hard to imagine how much courage it takes to fight alone in the evil base.

Xiuyi raised his head and looked at the old man with a look full of curiosity: "Teacher, can you tell me what the [other world] is about?"

"The [Otherworld]... that place is not accessible to a child like you for the time being." The old man sighed again: "Besides, you are already at the gold level and there is no need to upgrade for the time being, so don't ask."

[The Other World] is related to upgrading.

If the awakened one wants to upgrade, he must kill the shadow beast.

In other words, there are many shadow beasts in the [Inner World]. It is very dangerous, but it is also a place of treasure.

"Teacher, I want power."

Shuichi knew very well that power was essential no matter which world one was in.

"Kid, strength is not everything. Before you gain power, you should have the heart to control power..." Bocolanchi wanted to say something, but when he thought of Shuichi's situation, he shut up.

Why does he like Xiuyi?

Because the Shuichi he knew was very mature, different from other children of the same age, with a maturity that only adults have.

After Shuichi gained power, he was still willing to take the other children out of the dungeon. He obviously missed his parents, but after learning about the harm of the goblins, he helped them without hesitation... After learning that he had accidentally blown up the priceless dark gold pool, he did not deny it at all... There are many other aspects that prove that Shuichi has good moral qualities.

For an 8-year-old child, it is really not easy to achieve what he has done.

Even most adults can't do what he does.

Why should we blame the other party for not doing well enough?

Bocolanchi also knew that the reason why he was becoming more and more strict with Xiuyi was simply because he had too high expectations of him.

Deep love and deep responsibility.

But for children, they cannot feel such a heavy love that hopes their children will become successful.

They just feel that they are being targeted by adults...

But they don’t know that learning is the best gift that adults can give to children.

The mother cat will bring live mice to her kittens so that they can practice hunting.

Doesn’t the mother cat know that doing this is unnecessary?

Isn't it because they hope that the cubs will be able to live independently after they grow up? Even if the mother cat leaves or even dies, the kittens can still survive by relying on the skills they learned in their childhood.

"Because you have power, you need to be careful when using it. I know this." Shuichi looked at Bocolanchi helplessly, "But teacher, time is running out... Times have changed. From the moment the goblins appeared and all signs pointed out that it was a man-made disaster... I'm afraid we don't have as much time as you expected."

"..."

Bocolanqi was speechless.

He was refuted by his own students.

As for older wise men, they act prudently and plan before making decisions. Before doing anything, they will try their best to maximize the success rate within their capabilities.

Their experience and age are their greatest advantages.

But precisely because of their steadiness, the time required to do certain things naturally doubles.

Young people are different.

Do whatever you think of and be full of action.

Although their impulsive ways of doing things usually don't lead to good results, they are often the ones who can create miracles.

Perhaps it would be more appropriate to describe it as a blind cat catching a dead mouse.

And who says there are no young people who are full of initiative, extremely intelligent, and able to arrange everything in an orderly manner in the shortest time?

"Perhaps... you are right... If you want to go to the [other world], I can help you arrange it. But..." The master pondered for a moment, and finally shook his head: "But not now..."
