Chapter 1, The Sheriff of Darron County.
Good morning, Your Excellency, the security officer. Would you like to taste my grapes? These are freshly picked from the Maris Farm!
...Okay, sir. I'll say it. Besides the jackal people, there are also fish people, the fish pirate gang from Blackwood Lake.
Dick shrugged his shoulders and returned to his smiling face.
Dick smiled and greeted acquaintances along the way. Others also followed suit with this security officer who arrived in Darron County three years ago. Although this young man didn't like to talk, the people of Darron County knew that he was a kind-hearted person who often helped the common people with various matters. He was different from the previous security officers who only knew how to extort and blackmail.
Dick turned his head and looked at the bustling scene on the not-so-wide streets of Darron County. Who could have imagined that less than a year later, this place would become a gloomy and eerie place? And the tragic fate of little Pamela and Commander Redpass, even Davy and those militiamen, after their homes were destroyed and their lives were taken by the undead calamity, they couldn't even find peace for their souls.
Just as Joseph finished speaking, a clear voice rang in Dick's ears.
Dick touched his slightly stubbled chin, readjusted the long sword at his waist, and a question echoed in his mind.
A little girl holding a doll in her hand ran up from behind and grabbed Dick's clothes corner. He turned his head and smiled, squatting down and rubbing the top of the little girl's head. After messing up her originally smooth hair, he took out a candy from his pocket and put it in the hand of the little girl who was about to cry with a pouting mouth.
Tell me, where did you encounter the werewolf?
Dick squinted his eyes and tapped on the little girl's nose before releasing her hand. He then turned and walked into the security office of Dalong County. Yes, this is little Pamela's home. Her father is the chief security officer of Dalong County, Joseph Redpass, a renowned hunter and warrior.
Dalormir is the general term for the area near Stromgarde, in fact, it is a large human settlement consisting of fifty-four scattered villages, farms, and seven cities throughout the Dalormir region, which can be considered the rear area of the human kingdom of Lordaeron.
Joseph stood up from behind the desk and invited Dick to sit on the chair in the office. After all, this is just a small town, so don't expect the office decoration to be luxurious. But Dick doesn't care about these things, he only cares about the purpose of Joseph calling him over this time.
Upon hearing Dick's words, Timmy lowered his hands that were holding his head and widened his eyes in pleasant surprise as he asked.
Is little Pamela behaving well today?
Thank you, Mr. Dick, you are a good person!
Timmy, come here!
Officer Joseph, Security Officer Dick reporting!
However, Dongdalonmir has faded somewhat. The land here is hilly and unsuitable for crop growth. However, due to its proximity to the high elven kingdom of Quel'Thalas, the commerce here is very developed. The border city of Stratholme is also one of the largest commercial cities within the empire.
Uncle Dick, Uncle Dick, Father wants you to go find him!
Under the threat of Dick, Timira reluctantly revealed the truth.
Timmy crouched down holding his head, his face full of pain. However, upon hearing Dick's teasing, this naughty boy somehow found the courage from hetushu.com to snarl and shout at Dick.
Dalong County is one of the busiest villages in the eastern Dalongmire region. It is located near the Chapel of the Holy Light, so many followers of the Holy Light live here. Overall, this village is a great place to stay for a long time, with a peaceful and harmonious way of life.
This sound awakened Joseph, who was bowing his head and drawing. He raised his head, revealing the face of a middle-aged man with a small beard. Joseph's appearance was not outstanding, but the two scars on his face added a touch of ferocity to him. He was an orc warrior, and the scars left on Joseph were proof of his bravery.
Drip... Task Trigger: Timmy's Dilemma.
Did you hide something else?
No, sir, I don't!
So, are you deliberately hiding the fact that Commander Redpath was scared by those fish people because you're worried?
Dick said this with a murderous intent, but it hit Joseph's appetite. The old soldier, who had been a sergeant, laughed and patted Dick on the shoulder.
Mr. Sheriff, my house has been robbed! It must have been done by those bad boys from Timmy's gang. Please go and arrest them!
Good, as expected of the soldier who crossed the Silver Pine Forest alone back then. Go ahead, I will have Davy and the hunters help you. First, go and comfort that naughty boy. The poor guy is so scared that he almost wet his pants!
But to be honest, all of this has nothing to do with the people of Darron County, because even when the orc army was at its peak, they were unable to break through the defenses of Andohar, let alone attack the eastern Darron Miller region.
Bang!
Don't blame me for saying this upfront, Timmy. If Davy and I find out that there are not only jackals in that https://, we will turn around and leave. You can explain it to the parents of those children yourself.
Did the Lord send me to this world and arrange for me to live in this small town for 3 years, implying that He wants me to change the occurrence of these worldly misfortunes?
Pamela is well-behaved every day! Uncle David even said he wants to give me a new doll, but I prefer my old doll.
Dick reached out, clenched his fist, and tapped Timmy's head.
In the past two years, the entire northern frontier has been quite unsettled. It is said that the savage Orcs almost breached the capital city of Lordaeron. However, they were later driven south by the encirclement of the army. The northern frontier, which had been under the rule of war for several years, can only be considered relatively peaceful now.
Dick breathed a sigh of relief and nodded.
Mr. Security Officer, are you truly willing to rescue my companions? They are Fishmen, over 200 Fishmen!
Although Timmy is a notorious bad boy, he is still a teenager after all. Faced with such a terrible thing, he naturally dared not hide it anymore. However, his words made Dick squint. After looking around and finding no one nearby, Dick turned around and coldly stared at Timmy.
Upon hearing Timmy's rebuttal, Dick's expression remained unchanged, but his eyes grew colder. He remembered very clearly that in the game, Timmy's companion was captured by a group of fishmen.
Mr. Dick, thank you for bringing my child back from Andohar a few days ago. I heard that place is now experiencing an epidemic, it's so terrifying!
When the big kid heard someone calling him, he immediately turned around. However, when he saw Dick, he shrank back and dared not come over. It was not until Dick's smile turned cold that Timmy ran to Dick like a frightened rabbit and followed him out of the security office, bowing his head and not daring to speak.
Well, it's good that you like it, but make sure to keep it safe.
You're here, Dick.
Explanation: Help Timi find his little friends.
Dick responded with a sound, walked out of the office, and saw the big child hiding in the corner crying at a glance, so he reached out and called him over.
It's another morning. When the warm sunshine shines through the window into the barracks, Dick opens his eyes on time. He turns over and sits up from the hard bed, washes up quickly, puts on an old leather armor, carries a long sword, walks out of the barracks, and starts his day's work: patrol.
However, his words finally lifted some of the gloom from Dick's face. Fortunately, the plot has not changed.
It's like this, Dick. This morning, Timmy, that naughty kid, came running to me and said that his friend had been captured by a group of werewolves. He was the only one who managed to escape. Although this kid has a bad reputation, at least he doesn't have a history of lying. So I hope you can take the militia with you and go take a look.
Dick has become accustomed to this "enthusiastic" treatment. He refused the grapes offered by the vendor, exchanged a few words with the grateful merchant who came to thank him, and comforted the irritable, impoverished nobleman whose belongings had been stolen. Only then did he walk out of the crowd, patting the hilt of his sword, and patrolling the not-so-wide street.
Dick tapped Timmy's forehead again and said, "Noisy! Go, pack your things in ten minutes, then take us to Blackwood Lake. Hurry up, maybe we can still make it for dinner."
Just near the Blackwood Lake, Mr. Dick, Aru and I were planning to go fishing there. However, a group of jackal people rushed out and captured Aru and a few others. I managed to escape by hiding in the bushes.
Okay!
As Timmy disappeared around the corner, Dick squinted his eyes again.
Dick took the little girl's hand and walked towards her home. Upon hearing Dick's inquiry, the little girl, while chewing on a sweet candy and shaking the legs of her doll, said in a dissatisfied tone.
Dick gestured a "10" sign to him, and the naughty boy turned his head and ran away.
Of course, you've seen the previous Chief of Public Security almost wet his pants when he heard about the attack of the Fishmen. Although Redpass is famous, didn't he also accept the fact that those Fishmen were living in Lake Blackwood? You guys, always bullying us commoners, only dare to pick on the weak and fear the strong!
The largest freshwater lake within the borders of Lordaeron, Lake Darrowmere divides the Darrowmere region into two parts, east and west. West Darrowmere is the Empire's famous grain-producing area with many farms, as well as large cities like Andorhal.
Timmy immediately jumped up, like a car starting its engine, and dashed towards his home. However, after running a few steps, Timmy turned back and shouted to Dick.
Okay, Captain, but this time, I want to bring more hunters. If there are really werewolves lurking near Darrowshire, I will take the opportunity to eliminate them!
Dick walked into Joseph's office confidently, saluted crisply, and spoke loudly.
You only have 10 minutes. If you don't come back after 10 minutes, I won't go either!
Well, I don't want to fight the fish people either, but this guy triggered the mission, so I have to fight. Speaking of which, this is also the prelude to the invasion of natural disasters.
