Barry walked back step by step along the ice surface of the L River.
Jack also drove back to Y Manor.
The reason why he said those words to Barry naturally had a deeper purpose.
Remind the people of X Town?
He's not that kind.
Those people had attacked him twice, and even if one day they were to have him destroyed, Jack would not feel heartbroken.
But Jack knew that in the future, there might be other organizations or groups coming to attack Y Manor.
And X village's proximity to him was a natural barrier for him.
After Jack instilled this ideology in Barry, anyone who appeared around him would be treated by him as a potential enemy.
In that case, X village can help Jack share some of the hatred value.
Having such a tool was also very good"
Jack looked at the clumsy figure on the ice and muttered to himself.
However, he also needed to be vigilant in his heart.
The reason why Barry came to join him and recognized him as his elder brother is because of the strong strength he demonstrated.
If he hadn't been strong enough, he might have been killed by the people of X Village last night.
So in the future, Jack must tirelessly exercise his strength and make it even stronger!
Jack turned around and left, feeling that his rear was basically stable.
But there's one thing he didn't even think of himself.
That was Barry, who represented the highest combat power of X Village or the entire X Town. In fact, he was not the person with the greatest power in the village.
From Jack's perspective, this was unbelievable, but it was indeed a fact.
So, after returning to the village, Barry ran excitedly to report the good news to the current clan leader Ewan.
He thought that he had reached a settlement with Jack, and from now on, the village would be safe without worrying about retaliation from Jack.
But after listening to his report, Ewan's face became unpredictable.
After a moment of silence, he coldly said to Barry, "Who let you make your own decisions?"
Barry thought he would receive praise, but Ewan's reaction clearly poured cold water on him.
He was a little puzzled, "Grandpa, but... I saved our village from being attacked! You've seen Jack's strength, it's not something we can compete with at all."
Ewan sneered and said, "You still have the audacity to talk about this matter? If you hadn't backed down and dared not come forward yesterday, would so many people in our family have died."
Barry's face suddenly turned pale, hesitating and not knowing how to refute.
Ewan continued, "If it weren't for you, would your third grandfather have died."
"Now you're running over without permission, talking about reconciliation with others, as if you think you've made a big contribution."
"Hehe, your face is really big."
Barry felt a burning pain on his face and an immense sense of loss in his heart.
"But I promised Grandfather to protect the village well."
"We can no longer have conflicts with Jack. Reconciliation is clearly the best option."
"Shut up."
Ewan suddenly scolded and interrupted Barry's words.
He stared at Barry with dignity, and the long-standing authority of his elders made Barry afraid to look directly at him.
"That's just self righteousness and being clever! Now that I am the head of the family, you must first consult me for all your actions! You are not allowed to make any unauthorized claims."
Barry lowered his head and remained silent, feeling very aggrieved in his heart.
He thought he was clearly a hero!
At this moment, Ewan suddenly slowed down his tone and walked over to slowly pat Barry's shoulder.
"Barry! Grandpa knows that you are also kind-hearted, but you are still young and do not have mature ideas when it comes to doing things."
"Because of you, the family has suffered heavy losses. It was I who stood up for you in front of my people that prevented them from expelling you from the village."
Ewan sighed and said, "From now on, you will stay in the village just to redeem yourself. But don't do anything foolish again."
"Just obediently follow the instructions from the village. Do you understand?"
Barry lowered his head and remained silent.
Ewan emphasized his tone and said, "Do you understand?"
Barry's legs trembled instinctively and he nodded helplessly.
"Got it."
Ewan finally showed a satisfied expression and said, "Hmm, you go back first! Remember, you're not allowed to act without permission anymore."
After Barry exclaimed "Oh", he left Ewan's house with a disappointed expression.
As Barry walked away, Ewan adjusted his glasses and murmured, "Young people are arrogant and domineering. Don't think that just because you have some skills, you can ignore your elders! Hmph."
Then, he took out his phone from his pocket and sent messages to the people in charge of various branches in the village.
"You don't have to worry about Jack's situation! I have already contacted him and Jack has agreed to reconcile with us. He will not threaten our safety in the future."
The people involved in each branch were originally worried about Jack attacking.
At this moment, after listening to Ewan's words, he breathed a sigh of relief, and praised Ewan's ability.
"It must be you! You dealt with that bastard as soon as you stepped forward."
"Hey, you should have been appointed as the clan leader in the first place. Grandpa is old and confused, and he committed such a mistake."
"The deceased is great, so don't say such things again."
"In the future, our village will be led by you, which is a good thing."
…
After Jack returned home, he basically talked about Barry and X village with Janice and Jennifer.
This was also to prevent them from worrying anymore.
Jennifer patted her bulging chest and said, 'This is really great!'
Janice looked at her with a teasing gaze and said, "Isn't that right? Are you scared at this level?"
Jennifer said angrily, "I didn't! I just... don't want to see such a bloody scene again."
"If we continue to fight, thousands of people in X Village will be wiped out by Jack."
Jack can definitely do this kind of thing.
Janice sneered and said, "That's right, someone almost vomited bile yesterday."
Jennifer's face turned red with anxiety when she was told about her embarrassing situation.
"Janice."
"Hmph."
Janice proudly hugged Jack's arm and said, "Darling, you're really great."
Jack said disapprovingly, "Those villagers are just cats and dogs, they don't pose any threat to me."
"But in the future, if some underground forces emerge, that will be the worst."
Jennifer comforted with a smile, "You always like to think of things in the worst way. It's rare that we've solved the current problem now. Let's celebrate it well."
Jack thought to himself: Without foresight, one must have immediate worries. I don't want it to be too long-term, it may become a big problem in the future.
But it's rare that everyone was happy now, so he didn't say it out loud.
Janice walked up to the bar and picked out two bottles of Burgundy red wine. He smiled and said, "Since we're celebrating, let's have two drinks together tonight!" A hint of cunning flashed in Jennifer's eyes. "Alright, I'll go stir fry two signature dishes."
As a well-known socialite in the entertainment industry, her alcohol tolerance was quite good.
Today she planned to teach Jack and Janice a lesson.
Jack smiled and said, "Just have a little fun! My alcohol tolerance is not very good."
Janice and Jennifer laughed even happier when they heard this.
It's rare to be happy today! We'll finish as soon as we click
So, the three of them drank together until it was dark.
The night was already deep, and Janice was the first to fall down. Jennifer had half a bottle of red wine more than she could handle.
Only Jack, who claimed not to drink, was still sitting at the table with bright and lively eyes. How could he look drunk?
Looking at the two drunken cats who wanted to get drunk, Jack smiled slightly.
"I forgot to tell you, I used to work in liquor sales."
But at this glance, his throat couldn't help but wriggle twice.
Both women were wearing light pajamas, and after getting drunk, they were lying on the sofa, instinctively hugging each other. At this moment, the two of them were disheveled, with Jennifer's camisole pajamas revealing half of her smooth and round shoulders, her chest half exposed, and her seductive eyes like silk. Janice's face was rosy, and her posture was not elegant, but it had a kind of arrogant allure.
Jack raised his eyebrows and couldn't help but smile mischievously as he thought of Jennifer's previous prayers to him.
After teaching X village a painful lesson, those guys never praised L river again.
Jack's daily life was to enjoy the tranquility of time with two beautiful girls.
Jack enjoyed a life of worry free clothing and food, as well as plenty of leisure and entertainment options.
On the other hand, Jack's phone always sent messages about Barry.
"Jack, I've been feeling quite bored at home lately. When will you take me out to do a task?"
"Jack, I think we can form a super team. It's best to have five people, each representing a color. For example, if you're the captain, you'll be called the Flame Dragon Hero, and I'll be called the Snow Mastiff Hero."
"Jack, why aren't you talking? If you don't like it, we can still form a rainbow team. I'm called the King of Blue, and you're called the King of Colorless. Do you think so?"
After meeting Jack, Barry felt like he had found someone of the same kind.
He had few friends in the village and was even more ostracized by the villagers after that war.
Although they dared not say anything on the surface, the distance in their eyes was even more piercing than the cold north wind.
Barry had no choice but to rely on Jack and crave some comfort from him.
Jack naturally had to chat with his younger brother in order to win people's hearts.
By the way, extract some intelligence from his mouth.
After going back and forth, Barry told Jack all the information about his abilities.
However, gradually, Jack became somewhat overwhelmed.
Due to the lack of a girlfriend, this chubby guy had too much energy.
He can send hundreds of messages to Jack in a day, even if Jack ignored him, he can keep talking non-stop.
"Fatty, are you idle all day?"
Jack gritted his teeth and asked.
There was a pause of two seconds over there, and then came the shocked voice of Barry.
"Damn it! Jack, do you know all of this? Are you saying it's all in your calculations? Impressive, I'm convinced."
Jack: "…"
Jack covered his face and was speechless towards this chubby guy.
He understood that people like Barry were not welcomed in society.
So when you met someone who treated him a little better, you can't help but want to dig out your heart.
Even though Jack's goodwill towards him was purposeful, he always thought positively.
Jack couldn't bear to scold this chubby otaku anymore.
He had to open ChatGPT and ask the intelligent software to help him reply to Barry.
Anyway, as long as he replied with a "oh", "um", or "this way" after sending a dozen or so messages, he would be satisfied.
Hmm? How did you feel like a scumbag?
Jack shook his head and shook off the thought in his mind.
Several days passed peacefully like this.
Jennifer had already cultivated the botanical garden in a decent way, and she had also fed many dead flowers and plants inside.
In the farmland, she planted some vegetables with the seeds given by Jack.
Especially things like scallions and chili peppers.
These vegetables still needed to be freshly picked from the ground to taste.
And Jack also inspected the entire shelter inside and outside, eliminating many safety hazards.
However, there was still a question lingering in Jack's mind.
That was the security of the Internet.
He looked at the huge supercomputer in the control room and frowned slightly.
This computer can control the entire shelter, providing him with a lot of convenience.
It can be said that without it, the entire shelter would instantly be paralyzed.
If one day the network of the shelter was hacked, the consequences would be very terrifying!
How can we solve this problem"
Jack fell into contemplation.
Jack couldn't help but think of Kim, who easily found Jack's personal information through the internet.
Even the otaku Barry can find his phone number.
Cybersecurity was a big issue, and he needed to find a way to plug this gap.
Otherwise, if one day you encountered a top computer expert, there was a real possibility that this shelter would collapse on its own.
