Volume 2 Amber Chapter 28 The Bard

Next to the pile of goods, there was an axe.
Chen Lun walked over and hooked it with his foot, causing the axe to spin and fly up, and he grabbed the axe handle.
clang!
With one blow of the axe, the copper lock on the iron cage fell to the ground with a clang.
Then he broke the locks of the other iron cages one by one and released the captured people.
"Thank you so much!"
After they were freed, several men hurried to Chen Lun and bowed to him. Among them was the irritable old man, who now had only sincere admiration for him.
Judging from the black-haired young man's attire and his previous ability to single-handedly wipe out an entire bandit camp, he must not be an ordinary person. For such a strong man, even if he looks young, it has become instinctive to respect him sincerely.
"We are all craftsmen from this area. We are not rich. We don't know how we can repay your kindness."
Someone asked.
"No."
Chen Lun waved his hand.
He had originally come here just to hunt down the robbers, and saving people was just a coincidence. However, the identities revealed by these people reminded him of the description of the iron gloves.

A craftsman?
"Why did these bandits arrest you?"
"This...we don't know either, but they seemed to have mentioned in their previous conversation that they needed to build something, so they kidnapped people everywhere."
Chen Lun nodded. This made sense.
But he soon noticed that among this group of big and strong craftsmen, there was one guy who didn't fit in.
She has blonde hair and blue eyes, wears a pointed hat with a fancy feather on the brim, a cloak, and a small harp at her waist.
The most important thing is that even though this guy is dirty, it can't conceal his unique temperament and handsomeness.
It's just a little bit worse than me.
"What about you? Are you also a craftsman?"
Seeing Chen Lun's puzzled gaze on him, Alex smiled confidently.
He strode out, placed his left hand on his right chest, bowed deeply and nodded.
"My name is Alex, a great bard."
Chen Lun raised his eyebrows.
The blond young man raised a finger and said loudly:
“Although I appreciate your help, Alex doesn’t really need it.
It’s not that I couldn’t escape, but I stayed to observe the daily lives of the robbers and collect inspiration for my creations…
They are also a microcosm of the oppression of the empire, and I would like to write poetry about it."
"Don't listen to his nonsense!"
The grumpy old man among the craftsmen suddenly shouted.
“This guy was captured by the bandits just because he boasted that he had forged a divine weapon!
A guy who can't even lift a hammer is bragging so much. It's really an insult to our craftsmen!"
Alex's veins bulged and his face turned red. He put his hands on his waist and shouted:
"Shut up! I'm not bragging!"
"I've put up with you for a long time, you boastful fellow!"
The grumpy old man rushed forward and punched Alex in the pretty face, knocking him to the ground with blood coming out of the corner of his mouth.
"asshole!"
Alex was so angry that he got up and started fighting with the other party.
But due to the huge difference in their body sizes, the grumpy old man who was accompanied by a hammer and bellows all day was very strong, and he knocked Alex down again with just three punches and two kicks.
Chen Lun did not intervene, but watched with interest, his hands folded on his elbows.
The grumpy old man calmed down and took the lead in bowing to Chen Lun.
"There are many villages nearby. We make a living by forging farm tools here. If you need anything, you can come to us."
"Yes, although our technology is not as good as those guys in the military camp, the weapons we make are definitely not bad!"
Chen Lun smiled and nodded, and the craftsmen then formed a team and left.
He turned to look at Alex. The guy had stood up again and raised his sleeve to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth.
"You said you forged a divine weapon?"
"Uh...of course!"
Alex seemed to have completely forgotten the beating he had just received and regained his confident look.
He touched his golden hair, took out the small harp from his waist, and sang while playing:
“It was a two-handed sword nearly two meters long.
It is forged with a mixture of seabed metals and extraterrestrial objects, plus the blood of the Far West dragon and the fangs of the Blood Lord, and inlaid with three-color crystals and colorful gems.
I used it to kill the Kraken, and I also used it to chop off the head of the Nightmare Knight in the South...
It’s a pity that it was broken and lost in the battle with the overlord of the Far East…”
Snap, snap, snap…
Chen Lun applauded.
"Not bad, a very beautiful singing voice, and a good story too. It seems that you are indeed suitable for this job."

“This is not a story!”
Alex became angry and stopped playing.
"Although you saved me, you can't humiliate me! This is so rude! It's not a gentleman's thing to do!
I want to challenge you to a duel! To restore my noble dignity as Alex!"
Alex looked around and then picked up a kitchen knife from the ground. When he raised his head to fight to the death with the black-haired young man, he found that the other party had turned and walked away.
"Wait! Don't go!"
Alex chased after him in a rage.
"Everything I said is true, why don't you believe me!?"
Alex gasped.
Chen Lun glanced at him and walked forward quickly.
Alex gritted his teeth, quickened his pace, and ran back to Chen Lun.
"Hey, listen, I..."
"Okay, okay, I believe you."
Chen Lun finally couldn't stand this guy anymore and said seriously.
Alex's eyes widened and his brows raised with joy.
"Really? That's great... Ugh!"
He suddenly regained his confident expression and coughed twice.
Chen Lun had already concluded in his mind that this guy was probably mentally ill, so he ignored him and walked forward.
Alex followed Chen Lun silently. After walking for a while, he glanced at Chen Lun and couldn't help but speak:
"Uh-huh, do you still want to hear about my glorious past?"
"That's not necessary."
Chen Lun shrugged.
Alex looked as if he wanted to say something but hesitated, as if he was feeling uncomfortable.
"Okay, go ahead."
Chen Lun was helpless and could only hope that this new century torture would end soon.
Alex seemed to have activated some kind of switch and began to sing a song vividly. During this process, he even took out a small harmonica to accompany the song.
To be honest, if you put aside his big talk, he still sings very well.
This guy has a kind of magnetic voice, loud and ethereal. Coupled with his handsome appearance, if he had a normal mind, he might be able to win the hearts of thousands of girls.
Oh no, we have to add thousands of noble ladies.
Chen Lun filtered out most of the boasting embellishments and roughly understood what Alex was singing.
It is nothing more than telling about his travels around the world, eliminating harm for the people, and killing monsters and dragons to become a hero.
In addition to the Trisur Empire in the central and eastern territories of the continent, he had also set foot in the three vassal states of the Northern Kingdom of Byron, the Western Kingdom of Beelzebub, and the Southern Capital of Shuoli.
He even drifted in the endless ocean outside the continent and met countless terrible opponents.
But at this point Chen Lun could hardly bear to listen any longer. Fortunately he had walked out of the dense forest and was back on the main road.
He took two steps at a time and ran quickly to the carriage.
"Hey, do you want to be my follower? I guess after listening to my story, you must have admired me quite a lot!"
Alex shouted from behind.
Chen Lun pretended not to hear, turned around and said to Walsh, "Let's go," then got on the carriage.
The carriage started moving again, with Alex still chasing after it.
"Hey! Jack! I have a lot of fans, don't you really want to consider it?"
He was tired of chasing and finally gave up, cursing as he watched the carriage moving further and further away on the avenue.
Chen Lun in the carriage breathed a sigh of relief, finally getting rid of that guy.
But at this moment, he suddenly frowned slightly.
That’s not right. I didn’t tell him his name, so why would he know it?
