Conan: I'm just an ordinary novelist

Chapter 272 Dawn and Sunrise

The man nodded, agreeing with Yun Xianhe's words.

He stared at Yun Xianhe for a while, trying to put on a smile for this adventurer who looked full of vigor:

"The future is uncertain, and everyone can become a hero. Come on, adventurer."

"Thank you for your kind words, boss."

Yun Xianhe placed 28 gold coins on the long table between the two of them.

"You gave too much."

"How about giving me a dagger?"

The man glanced at Yun Xianhe, turned around and went to the store to get a dagger with a leather scabbard.

Yun Xianhe reached out to take it, pulled it out skillfully and took a look.

The azure blade flashed with tiny golden lights in the sun, and it seemed as if you could see water ripples flowing on it.

"Xuanxing Stone? It's a good thing, boss. How much is it?"

"Give it to you."

“So generous?”

"I think you're going to win."

Hearing this, the hero smiled, put the dagger on his waist with familiarity, and opened his thin lips slightly:

"No, I will definitely win. Let's go, we'll see each other again when we have the chance."

"Goodbye."

Hongshu followed Yun Xianhe into the alley. When the sunlight behind him completely left his shoulders, he seemed to hear the man say:

"The boy from the Bai family."

Bai family?

"Do you need a shield? Or you can get one, but can you hold it?"

“…I’m not that weak.”

I feel like Hiroki, who has less strength, is upset because he has been criticized several times today.

He secretly glanced at Yun Xianhe, who was also not very strong, and quietly pinched his arms twice.

How did the other party develop such a string of question marks in his physical stats?

"Okay, okay, choose a shield that's light and tough. Choose a small one and hang it directly on your arm. This way, it will work as long as you subconsciously raise your hand to block, and you don't have to worry too much about how to use it."

As expected of a brave man, he is quite considerate.

Purchasing a shield is simple and straightforward.

Yun Xianhe hardly even looked at the store and directly dragged Hongshu into a store.

The store owner was very enthusiastic!

He took Hiroki and measured his arm length, arm circumference, and strength... and finally rummaged through the boxes and took out a dozen shields.

Uniform size, different material styles.

Hiroki was dumbfounded by the fancy carvings.

"so beautiful……"

"These patterns also have their own rules. Um - you are not old enough to learn that yet."

"Hey?"

Seeing that Hiroki seemed a little anxious, the shopkeeper behind the counter smiled:

"This little brother is right. The meaning of these patterns is something you can only learn in high school. You are not old enough yet, kid."

A kid who had graduated from college a long time ago scratched the back of his head and looked up at Yun Xianhe.

The latter shrugged and picked out a shield with reduced force and toughness.

"That's it."

"Okay! It's 9 gold coins! Do you need any other armor? The second one is half price."

Hearing this, Yun Xianhe rubbed his chin and looked at the items in the store one by one.

Half an hour later, Hongshu, fully armed, followed Yun Xianhe out the door.

The hero nodded with satisfaction:

"Now I have the look of an adventurer."

Hiroki, who was good at accepting new things, accidentally saw a child of similar age who was dressed more exaggeratedly than him, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly.

Yun Xianhe obviously saw it as well, but did not react much.

This is very normal. In order to prevent your children from getting injured during the competition, a set of protective gear is very necessary.

If Hongshu's weight-bearing value wasn't too low, Yun Xianhe would have given him the same treatment.

but,

"That person's family should have a knight guard. That outfit can be considered a knight's outfit."

"What about me?"

"Traditional junior adventurer equipment. Of course, you haven't obtained the adventurer qualification certificate yet, so you can only be called a reserve adventurer."

Hongshu listened quietly, trying to imagine the background setting of the entire simulated world constructed by Yun Xianhe.

Very grand setting.

Dragon Quest?

I found Noah's Ark, a book in the Brave Series written by Xianyun Yehe on the Internet, which honestly recorded all the data.

"Okay, the next step is to wait for the competition to start."

Three days flew by.

Hiroki consolidated his own martial arts strength for three days, and the brave man ate, drank and played for three whole days.

The qualifying rounds are very full.

Hongshu and Yun Xianhe's competitions took place at almost the same time period.

Hiroki, who had originally planned to watch the heroes' actual battle scenes, felt a little regretful, but it didn't matter. He could copy the Noah's Ark data and secretly watch it at night.

The Little Warriors' competition, qualifiers, 100 to 50.

The challenger on the opposite side was fully armed and even more armed than Hiroki.

Following the referee's command, the two men raised their swords and attacked at the same time!

All the moves taught by Yun Xianhe are fast, accurate, and ruthless in actual combat.

He took the most refined parts of the traditional adventurer's elementary swordsmanship and taught them to Hiroki.

So much so that the little fellow taught by the brave man was like a fish in water in the primary competition.

Hiroki didn't even feel like he had done anything, as the opponent's weapon was knocked away by him and he was defeated.

"The winner! Traveler Xian'an!"

"Are you okay? Sorry."

"You are so awesome! What was that move just now? It seems different from what is described in the book?"

Before Hiroki could reach out to help, the child on the ground, who was about his age, suddenly got up and came over with sparkling eyes.

Hiroki was a little overwhelmed by the sudden approach of a peer who started a conversation with him, and he didn't even take back his hand that was about to help him.

The person on the other side thought he wanted to shake hands with him, so he shook his hand happily:

"Hello! My name is Leng Liming, I'm 11 years old and in the fifth grade of Shangshi Primary School. Which school are you from? By the way, the referee just said that you are a traveler?! You are actually a traveling practitioner?! Your guide must be super powerful!"

Leng Liming's personality is very inconsistent with his surname.

Hiroki had heard people use the word "chatterbox" before, and today he got to see it for himself.

That little mouth is like a machine gun, and once it opens it seems like it has a hundred thousand questions.

Hiroki was so asked that he couldn't even react.

It's like a computer is stuck because it's trying to handle too many problems at once.

Yun Xianhe, who had just finished the fight on the other side, came over and saw this scene and laughed. At the referee's signal, he manually took the two children off the ring.

"Wow! You must be Xian'an's guide! You are so good-looking!"

"Thank you. I appreciate the compliment."

The hero gave a gentle smile, successfully making the little guy blush.

Leng Liming coughed twice, puffed out his chest and introduced himself:

"Hello, guide! I am Leng Liming, who is planning to make friends with Xian'an! I am also his opponent in the previous match! Although I lost, I will work harder in the future to surpass him! Thank you for your guidance!"

"what?"

Hiroki, whose hand was still being held, responded dumbly.

Leng Liming took it as an agreement and smiled even more brightly:

"You agree? Great! I'll treat you at noon today!"

"Wait a moment,"

"Ah! I saw my brother, wait a minute. Brother!"

Hiroki, who was finally released, blinked.

He watched Leng Liming rush into the arms of a sturdy man like a cannonball, and then get a crisp blow on the head.

Hiroki shrank his head.

It looks like it hurts.

"Didn't I tell you to leave after the competition? Are you causing trouble for the other party again?"

"Hey, hey! I don't have any, brother, look! This is my new friend Xian'an! The one next to him is his guide!"

Leng Chaoyang looked at Hong Shu, who was obviously a little out of shape, and then glanced at Yun Xianhe, who was very recognizable. The corner of his mouth twitched:

"Fool, that's his brother, a traveler and adventurer."

He was the winner of the competition venue next to him just now.

It seemed that he defeated the opponent with just one move. I think he was a very strong opponent.

But he looks so young... maybe he grows too young.

"Hey?! Such a young adventurer?! So cool!!"

Leng Liming seemed even more excited.

Hiroki felt like he was being strangled when someone rushed over and grabbed his shoulders.

Good boy, why didn't I see you being so strong during the competition just now? !

The brave man was very kind and rescued his younger brother from the other party. He rubbed Leng Liming's head and successfully won the little guy's bright eyes.

"Dawn, huh? Great name."

"Right! I like my name too! What's your name, Adventurer Brother?"

"Xianhe, the Xianhe of Xianyunyehe."

"Idle and wild crane?"

Leng Liming, who was not very familiar with this word, scratched the back of his head.

Leng Chaoyang, who was standing by, couldn't help but hold his forehead with his hand when he saw his brother's dazed look.

Obviously, young adventurers with high combat power tend to have a common problem - poor academic performance.
