There is no way the Liberian girl could lay eggs!

Such a big room, and only this one child lives there?

Isn’t that a bit too extravagant?

It was no wonder that the patrol leader became suspicious. Talia's figure and face looked so confusing that she subconsciously thought that Talia was still a child without autonomy.

"Well, I live here alone. This is a rented house. Mr. Artyom can prove it."

"Is what she said true?"

The topic turned to Artyom, and the patrol leader's tone was clearly a little dissatisfied.

The captain of the guard team had been openly and covertly opposing them since they entered the town, and was reluctant to lead the way.

They are simply parasites of the empire!

Yes, the garbage from this remote place only deserves to stay here!

"Talia, I entered this town on November 3rd, and have been settled here for one month and three days. All paperwork is complete and normal."

After telling Talia's check-in time in detail, Artyom walked up and stood in front of Talia, confronting the aggressive patrol team.

joke!

This town is his territory!

Because of its remote location and lack of strategic value, it was naturally abandoned by the masters. Instead of allocating funds for support, they imposed taxes on it.

Under the circumstances, it was impossible for Artyom to have any good feelings towards these guys.

They pulled him out of his warm bed and went from house to house in the wind and snow looking for some so-called infected people.

His resentment has long been accumulated!

"Search!"

With a wave of his hand, the patrol leader and several people behind him immediately dispersed and prepared to search the house. Judging from their posture, there would probably be some things missing from Talia's house after they finished searching.

Boom!

The long sword hanging on his back slipped into Artyom's hand. He grasped the scabbard and pushed it hard against the ground.

The wooden floor made a loud noise without Artyom leaving any mark on it, which scared off the patrols who were about to search for things.

Talia was his client, introduced by Texas. Not only was she generous, but she also did not do much for him. Apart from asking him to bring a few books, she had never asked him for anything else.

If Talia was harassed by the patrol team in front of him today, where would his face be?

He felt that the protection fee paid by Talia was too hot to handle!

Several members of the patrol team were frightened by Artyom and stood still, their hands frozen in place, fearing that their actions would attract Artyom's attack.

They are just ordinary people without any connections. They are the kind of people who will leave only their names behind when they die. They are not as good as those people who have connections above them.

It's not worth it to risk your life here just to search for an infected person.

Even if Artyom didn't kill them, beating them up would be more than enough. Their superiors would not take the initiative to break up with this guy for them.

The house was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop, with only the crackling sound of the burning firewood in the fireplace.

Talia hid behind Zero, looking at the black bugs caught by the temple, smiling as if she had stolen the little Lebery's Wolper.

It seems that her protection fee was not paid in vain, and the conflict between the two people is much deeper than she thought.

So...if she adds fuel to the fire...

Will these two people fight?

"It's all right, Mr. Artyom. If the officer wants to search, let her do it. I don't have anything valuable in this room anyway. There are only a few tables."

Keeping herself very humble, Talia casually pointed at the clothes in her living room.

Because of her personal habits, she rarely buys furniture and the like. The entire living room only has a few lounge chairs, a dining table, and a sofa.

You can see the whole picture of the living room at a glance.

"That's fine! Since you've moved into this town, you're a resident of it. It doesn't matter how long you've lived here."

In Artyom's view, Talia's words were just a sign of bowing to the people in front of him, admitting that he was inferior to this woman!

He couldn't let his dignity be lost in the hands of these guys!

This will greatly reduce his prestige and will cause great obstacles to his future life here!

"Don't worry! No one can touch you today!"

The patrol leader was also shocked by Artyom's words and was at a loss for a moment.

They have been patrolling the land of Ursus and have never met anyone who dares to talk back to them directly. This is the first time they have encountered someone like Artyom.

"Do you want to betray Ursus? Guards! Don't forget! You are standing on the land of Ursus! Do your duty!"

As a conditioned reflex, the patrol leader subconsciously used their usual methods on Artyom.

Frame someone with a crime and then use your power to suppress them!

But what she didn't know was that this kind of thing would only arouse the rebellious spirit in Artyom's heart.

"Believe it or not, even if I leave you here, I won't have any trouble!"

"Your position will be taken by someone else, and your wealth and power will fall into the hands of others! The day after you die, the document of acceptance will be issued!"

"What a bunch of idiots! Do you really think you're a soldier just because you're wearing a military uniform?!"

"You're nothing more than a bunch of tools used to make money for others! When a tool breaks, those masters will just replace it instead of seeking revenge on the person who broke it!"

His fingers gently pushed the hilt of the knife, and the sharp blade flashed a captivating cold light in the air.

"If you don't believe me...you can try it!"

bass!

The Ursus standard military knife flew out, slashing across the front of the patrol leader, cutting a hole in her clothes.

The patrol leader stood there motionless, staring at Artyom. Her hand had already climbed onto the hilt of the knife at her waist, and the raging veins extended from the back of her hand into her cuffs.

The dangerous atmosphere is about to break out!

"Try it! See if those gentlemen are willing to trouble me for you, or if they are willing to give you up in exchange for a stable town that pays taxes on time!"

"I think it should be easy to tell the truth behind this!"

With a sneer, Artyom put the sharp blade back into the scabbard.

Artyom's words were very effective. The patrol leader's hand slowly loosened from the hilt of the knife, but the fingers stroking the hilt clearly showed her inner thoughts.

Unwilling!

No one would just let it go if they were provoked in front of their subordinates, but she just couldn't do anything about this guard.

Although this town is on the map of Ursus, it has basically escaped the control of Ursus. All matters in the town are decided by Artyom and the mayor whom he has never met.

To put it bluntly, in this town, Artyom is the undisputed local emperor, and the only one who can sit at the same table with him and discuss things is the mayor.

As the leader of a patrol team, she really had no right to challenge him.

If anything happens to Artyom, the mayor will definitely take action, and then this town governed by two people will become a place where he has the final say.

Those masters far away in the center of Ursus will not send troops to suppress it. Marching and fighting costs money!

The gains from taking this town are far less than the costs.

It would be better to keep the two of them here to check and balance each other, and collect some tax revenue into your pocket every year. Why not do it?

After figuring it all out, the patrol leader turned and walked out, followed closely by several other subordinates.

When he reached the entrance of the yard, the patrol leader looked back at the house and memorized its location firmly in his mind.

"Talia, right? Let's take our time!"

Artyom?

There will always be a time when you are not around, right?

I don't believe you can keep an eye on this kid anytime and anywhere!

If I can’t beat that reckless guy, how can I beat you?

Volume 3: Chapter 10: Eldest sister suppresses her!

As soon as the patrol team left, the house suddenly became much quieter. The messy footprints on the ground proved that the patrol team had been here not long ago.

"Thank you, Mr. Artyom!"

The crisis was inadvertently resolved by Artyom, and Talia thanked him.

She took advantage of the conflict between the two and successfully resolved the sudden crisis, saving herself and the three infected people.

Among them, Artyom's presence played a big role, stopping the patrol team's search in time, otherwise her peaceful life would have been disrupted.

Having an affair with an infected person was a crime enough to send her into exile in Ursus.

"It's okay, it's my job."

Shaking his head, Artyom's face was full of fatigue.

He had been walking with the patrol team in the wind and snow for several hours. He was annoyed by the arrogance of these guys along the way. Although he was not physically exhausted, he was mentally tortured.

If he hadn't been concerned about the guy who issued the task to the patrol team, he wouldn't have bothered to pay attention to these lackeys.

"Close the doors and windows. The town has been a little unsafe lately. Try not to go out at night."

After reminding Talia, Artyom walked out of Talia's house.

As the captain of the guard in Pendika Town, he naturally knew that there were infected people infiltrating his town.

But this is his town, and he should be the one to deal with these bugs. If others interfere, he will feel that his rights are being taken away.

"Well! Goodbye, Mr. Artyom!"

Waving goodbye to Artyom's back, Talia closed the door and locked it.

Leaning against the door, Talia's chest heaved violently.

Those people in the patrol team are not rule-abiding guys at all. If they are allowed to search, Shuangxing and the others will definitely be found!

A bloody battle will be inevitable at that time!

Fortunately, Artyom was captured to serve as a guide, and by chance he resolved the crisis.

Click!

Pushing the door open and entering her room, Talia planned to let Froststar out first. After all, that was where she kept her clothes, and it would be bad if she stepped on it and made it dirty.

By the wall, white mist was floating out of the integrated cabinet, and transparent ice crystals had appeared on the grille.

If those patrol teams were really allowed in, Frost Star would be discovered for sure.

fortunately!

Talia didn't say anything. She was not in the mood to talk to anyone. What she had encountered today was more than what she had encountered in the past year.

She just wanted to get rid of these guys as soon as possible and then go back to her bed and sleep soundly.

The closer you get to the wardrobe, the colder it gets.

What on earth is Froststar doing in there?

Why is it so cold?

Just as her arm touched the wardrobe and Talia hadn't opened it yet, Frost Star suddenly pushed the wardrobe open and rushed out. She had a sharp ice spike in her hand and a ferocious expression ruined her pretty face.

Eh?

When Frost Star saw that the person who opened the door was Talia, the ferocious look on his face disappeared and was replaced by a dazed expression.

The ice cube in his hand fell and shattered into ice chips on the ground.

She hid far away and didn't hear much of what was happening outside. When she heard footsteps, she thought it was the patrol team coming in.

Who knew it was Talia!

The body rushed forward with such speed that there was no chance of recovery.

This is what her father taught her.

Treat every attack as your last! That way you have a chance to survive until the next attack!

Now she regrets it a little bit...
