I kissed the statue at the beginning and I vomited all over the floor

Chapter 196: Halfling Paladin in Maid Outfit

To the west of Huiyao City, on a small road near the Nield Mine, a dozen halflings were shamefully tied up and stood obediently in front of Ivan.

"Are all of you here?"

"No! Ya... why are you pulling my pants...

oh oh!

It’s all here!”

"Uh... you've already let the cat out of the bag. Are you thinking I'm stupid by trying to make amends in front of me?"

Alvin rubbed his hands speechlessly. This was the first time he saw a halfling.

Completely different from the Hobbits in my impression, the Halflings were like scaled-down humans.

To put it bluntly, they are all short people.

And the height of a halfling is not very short.

Before meeting this group of creatures, Alvin thought that halflings were only half his height at most, which was already a big deal, right?

Otherwise why are they called halflings?

As a result, these little guys are basically about 1.2 meters tall and have to buy tickets to take public transportation.

There was a tall one among them, probably about 1.4 meters tall.

No wonder they thought there was a halfling on Ivan's side just now - Lian is less than 1.4 meters tall.

The angry little Lian was looking at the captives in front of her one by one, as if trying to find the guy who just mistook her for a halfling.

Xiling stood aside, playing the role of a "crazy" druid who frightened the halflings.

“Okay everyone, now that you’ve fallen into the hands of our crazy druids, don’t even think about lying.

Now it's question time.

Why attack us...?"

From Alvin's perspective, this group of halflings all exuded the color of fear.

In fact, there is no need for [conscious vision]; just from the trembling look on their faces one can clearly tell what emotions they are feeling at the moment.

"Don't talk? I think my friend has many ways to make you talk..."

Seemingly losing his patience, Ivan revealed the short half-elf who had been glaring at the halfling.

"Why? You are also half-body..."

"Shut up! I'm going to knock out your front teeth!"

The little half-elf could no longer endure such humiliation and was about to leap forward.

"and many more!"

A sharp voice suddenly interrupted Lian's actions, and then a small head popped out from the bushes on the left.

"Ya..."

"you shut up!"

Alvin followed the voice and was stunned.

What a delicate maid... Ugh—

What a dainty little halfling!

The newly emerged halfling was wearing a white maid's skirt with some black sashes on it.

The style was a little different from the maid outfit that Ivan was familiar with, but the essence was still there—the white silk that a certain Blue Star waste youth was staring at intently...

Arnie Lightfoot, as her last name suggests, is a Lightfoot halfling from the South Hills.

She was tall and slender, of course, for a halfling; she was agile, cute, hardworking, and had once served as a director of the Maids' Association...

But now, she is the captain of this halfling patrol.

"Tell me, there's no need to rush. We still have plenty of time..."

"Cough cough..."

"Don't be afraid, we are not bad people..."

"Cough cough cough..."

"How about we sit in the carriage and chat? The sun is quite hot now..."

“Ahem!

Perverted brother-in-law, please hold back...

My sister has gone to get the spear!"

Xiao Lian thought she had cleverly resolved an internal crisis. Ivan, with two bumps on his forehead, stood obediently next to Xiling and began the second interrogation with a serious expression.

"Do you want to tell me directly, or do you want me to ask you one sentence at a time?"

This time, Alvin was not dazzled by the maid outfit.

It was rare for me to see familiar things from the Blue Star period, so I couldn't help but get a little excited.

The halfling Annie walked up to her team members and cast a healing spell on one of them who ran too fast and fell and broke his skin. Then she turned to face Ivan and the others.

"Yani Lightfoot, protector of Yondalla, greets you all."

After hearing this introduction, Ivan, who was originally planning to test his diplomatic rhetoric, was pulled back by Xiling.

"Be careful, Alvin, this is a holy knight of the gods..."

The half-elf lady whispered in Ivan's ear.

Halfling Paladin?

Alvin couldn't help but look at the young woman opposite him who was about the same height as Lian again.

In the [conscious vision], this halfling did not flash with black light, but emitted a thick golden halo.

This color is exactly the same as that of the old guy Alduin, which means... this baby-like girl is very extraordinary inside.

At least not that silly look on her face.

With some firm ideas in his mind, Alvin hid behind Xiling, took a step forward, and responded to the other party's greeting in his own way.

"Evan Norrisius, druid of the Gray Forest.

Let's get this straight to the point, why did you attack us?"

"Open the door? What door? There are no mountains around here..."

The tone of the half-orc maid, coupled with that silly and cute expression - if it were on Blue Star, it would definitely be enough to melt the iron bodies of countless otakus.

If it weren't for the reminder of [Consciousness Vision], Ivan would probably have turned into a corpse as well.

"Don't try to mislead me. Your white silk tricks - ahem, your tricks are useless to me!"

Ivan stretched out his right hand towards the half-ling bound in tortoise shell, and a wave of magic appeared on his hand.

This action made Annie, who was also a user of divine power, look fixed.

"Ani, huh?

You don’t want anyone to be bullied, right?”

The halfling Annie decisively put away her usual expression.

The cute and silly performance that always worked in front of male creatures didn't work today.

"Don't do it, I will answer the questions carefully..."

Ivan's eyebrows twitched. He was a little surprised at how quickly the short man opposite him changed his expression.

He used the strange tone of voice he learned while watching the film to make himself look more sinister.

"Do you need me to repeat it again?"

The corner of this blue star human's mouth turned into Nike again.

Annie Qingzu suppressed her expression and stood in a more relaxed posture.

"We are a patrol team of the Nield Mine Halfling Guard.

Because of the treachery of the Lord of Huiyao City, we will now block all troops and military personnel coming from the direction of Huiyao City."

“What are you talking about?

The betrayal of the Lord of Huiyao City?"

Before Ivan could say anything, Percy, who had been standing nearby, jumped out, his eyes wide open, glaring at the half-ling female.

This city guard doesn't have a strong sense of belonging to Huiyao City, but he is absolutely loyal to both the new and old city lords.

"Is not it?"

The halfling maid looked at Percy, who was wearing standard armor, without showing any weakness, and responded very quickly.

"Didn't the city lord say that within two years, the halflings could be driven out of this damn mine?

What happened to the two years you promised? Now it’s been five or six two-year periods!

Do you know how many halflings die in this evil pit every year? "
