The Dog Rider is the Demon King

There is a large iron mine to the west of Domi City, which was abandoned six years ago, and now occasionally a small team goes back to mine some leftover metals.No one cares about this matter, after all, that place is still within the jurisdiction of Domi City, and guards often patrol it.

However, a week ago, there was a monster wounding incident suddenly. Most of the teams that went to mine were seriously injured, and some teams even lost several members.So the guards blocked the adjacent area, and only the trainee knights went on missions or the guards went on patrol.

But the blockade is not a long-term solution after all, so the guards sent a mission to the apprentice knights. After all, it is not very dangerous in terms of difficulty, and it can be regarded as a small trial.

Ron returned to Sister Ashisha's office and watched Brent sitting on the side in a well-behaved manner, drinking black tea with a teacup in his hand.Seeing Ron's return, Ashisha left her office, and there were still things for her to keep an eye on at the orphanage.

"Your Highness, please go back first, the mission has changed, it is not a simple patrol. It may be a little dangerous, so it is still..." Ron bowed, staring at Brent who was slightly stained by walking. Dusty shoe toes, afraid to look into his eyes.

"Huh?" Brent said in a bad tone, "What's so dangerous?"

"It is said that a third-order monster has gone berserk, and the goal of the mission is to take a monster back. After all, it is a third-order monster, and it is still a bit difficult. So... Your Highness, please go back. I... can't let you take risks. "

"Then you can take the risk? I won't feel bad if you take the risk?" Brent stood up as soon as he slapped the table, and kicked Ron in the stomach with his leg.Ron didn't move, he took Brent's kick hard and remained motionless.

"You resist! Why don't you move. Can't you beat me?" When Brent spoke, there was a cry in his tone, and Ron's bones were shattered when he heard it.

"Your Highness, don't be self-willed. You can't have an accident. It's too dangerous there, and I may not be able to protect your safety." But Ron didn't mean to back down at all, and he looked at Brent with firm eyes.

Brent and him looked at each other for a long time, but finally lost the battle: "Forget it, I'll go back, you must come back well and completely."

"Yes, Your Royal Highness." Finally getting Brent to agree not to go to the western mining area, Ron felt very excited, even ignoring the fact that Brent loves acting very much, and also ignoring the twinkle in Brent's sad little eyes. Had a good time.

Ron escorted him back to the castle. Brent walked without muddling at all, and Ron turned around and walked towards his destination outside the city without any doubts.The road leading to the western mining area has to pass through a dense forest, which is a rare coniferous forest near Domi City. The ground is covered with a thick layer of pine needles, some of which have just fallen to the ground and are still green in color. The pine needles and cypress leaves below have lost their fresh and tender colors, revealing a withered yellow dull color.

The thick leaves are piled up like a thick carpet. When walking up, there is only the sound of some leaves rubbing against each other. The sound is very soft, slightly like the breathing of the forest.

Ron's footsteps were very light, and he always felt that there was some inexplicable and strange wind blowing behind him, making him a little unsteady.He could feel that what was following him was not some mad monster, but a thinking creature with its own intelligence.

The green light in his hand flickered slightly, and a vine emerged from a small magic circle in his palm, submerged in the middle of the pine needles of the stacked people, and swam silently under the pine needles, like a flexible tail. fish swimming in water.

Ron's ears moved slightly, and he keenly captured the position and movement of the creature behind him. The thin vine under the pine needles suddenly came out, tightly entangled the thing several times .Hanging on a nearby branch.Ron walked towards the hanging unknown object. When he walked in, he was a little dumbfounded. He quickly reached out and untied the vine hanging from the tree, and muttered as he untied it: "Little Bai, why did you come here from home?" Didn't Uncle Allo look at you?"

The giant rabbit in his arms moved its three-petal mouth, and of course it didn't say anything, and it couldn't say anything.

Hold the rabbit and continue walking: "You really... don't run around, don't affect my mission. Sigh, I don't know why you came here."

Xiaobai lay obediently in his arms, and Ron gently stroked its big ears, all the way to the tip of its short tail.The tip of Xiaobai's tail trembled slightly, and then returned to calm.

Brent, who was following them, almost broke his teeth. You don't want me to follow, but you bring a rabbit?Am I not as important as a rabbit in your heart?The angry Brent didn't notice that he stepped on a twig, and the sound of "creak" was very clear in the empty woods. Brent thought "No", and saw a vine appearing in front of him. , only a few millimeters away from your eyeball.

Brent's pupils constricted subconsciously and he closed his eyes.

"His Royal Highness? Didn't you say that this place is too dangerous, have you been sent back? When did you catch up again? If something happens to you, how can I explain to the teacher and the king?"

"Wherever this prince wants to go, it's none of your business." Brent poked his neck, opened his eyes and stared at him without admitting defeat, "Anyway, I've already come, and it's too late to go back now. You don't even have a You can take a rabbit with you, so why not throw me here? As long as you dare to do this, as soon as I return to the castle, I will immediately tell my father and king that you are irresponsible and let him remove your post. Then throw you in the prison to stay for a few years."

"Everything is up to the prince's wishes." Ron had a helpless expression on his face, but his words were extremely respectful.

"There's no one here, so can't we just joke around like before?"

"No...Your Highness, I'm afraid I can't help it..." The last sound in Ron's words was very meaningful.

"Cut, it's so boring. Let's go, finish your task early and go back early, dinner seems to be roast leg of lamb. Ah, it's been a long time since I've eaten the roast leg of lamb from Cook Lidal." After finishing speaking, Brent said Immediately strode forward.

Ron had no other choice, and he didn't have so much time to hang out, so he had to follow Brent half a step behind, still holding the huge Xiaobai in his arms.But Ron's face was covered with a layer of worry. He was not Brent's opponent in an open and honest battle, but judging from Brent's completely unresponsive performance just now, it is obvious that Brent has no actual combat experience. , There is no experience in guarding against sneak attacks.Warcraft, especially crazy ones, will not follow the rules and wait for you to take a good posture and chant the spell before shooting. Ron has to worry about whether he can protect Brent intact because he is not good at learning.

Just now Ron just said that he was worried that he would not be able to explain to the teacher and the king, but he knew very well in his heart that if something happened to Brent, he would not be able to pass the test, even if Brent just broke his skin, He will feel uncomfortable as if he is terminally ill and there is no cure.He sighed secretly, this kind of feeling that shouldn't exist...Let him dissipate with time.

Unknowingly, the two had walked out of the dense forest, and the exploited mine with many holes appeared in front of them.Brent was stunned the moment he saw it. He didn't expect there to be such a place near Wangcheng. Don't these people know that there is a way to mine in a regular and planned way?

As if he knew what Brent was thinking, Ron stood behind him on the left, explaining carefully: "After a mine is judged as an abandoned mine by the country, that mine is in a state of no one's management. Anyone who struggles with a Any small team can come in and mine some resources. These are all tacitly approved by the government. However, each small team comes in scattered, and each team has different ideas. Naturally, it is impossible to have a unified plan .So that’s what happens to most waste mines, being sucked out of every last bit of residual value and left to fend for themselves.”

"But...why doesn't the government continue mining?"

"Because organized mining requires a lot of manpower, material and financial resources, and for such small mines with few internal reserves left, this is an act of losing money. Almost every month, a small mine will be exhausted. If every If one puts too much energy into it, the country's economy will not be able to develop, and the loss outweighs the gain."

"What about those rich businessmen, nobles, or ministers? Aren't they so-called 'philanthropists'? What's the matter? Aren't they usually clamoring and frantically participating in various evening parties to donate money?"

"They... After all, they are businessmen, and they are only looking for profit. This kind of thankless thing... no one wants to do it. Your Royal Highness, this is the reality. Not everything can be done with only a passion, and every decision There are many reasons behind it that check and balance each other, and a result that is beneficial to all parties is reached. No one will disperse all their wealth and wealth just for a trivial matter." Ron sighed In his tone, Brent always thinks of everything too simply, which is why he has been obsessed with such obvious things as "why can't two people be together when they like each other?"

"So... is that so?" Brent's eyes were a little lost. He knew what Ron said, but he couldn't believe it for a long time. He always felt that there was room for maneuver.But the facts were right in front of him, and he couldn't help but believe it.

"Everyone has their own imperatives. Although every decision the king makes sometimes seems to be going his own way, as long as there is a very firm opposition from one side, he will still think it over before making a decision. So..." Ron didn't repeat Continuing with that sentence, he believed that Brent would understand what he meant. This is the price of growth, "Okay, Your Highness, let's search the vicinity first. Before noon, let's take a look around. This afternoon Let's go find it in the mine, what do you want for lunch?"

"It's all good, I believe in your craftsmanship." Brent still didn't get out of that emotion, but responded to Ron's words lightly.
