Volume 1 Despair and Dawn Chapter 27

"Alright, alright. Taylor waved his hand to suppress the cheers of the many kobolds and said, "Now for our most precious guest, the patron of Lord Eoros, we offer the highest welcome of our tribe!"

The kobolds around him began to cheer again, a group of people scattered and began to go about their own business, Taylor pulled Zhao Xi back to his original position and sat down, and soon Zhao Xi's table appeared with fragrant barbecue, hearty melons and fruits, and freshly opened fragrant fruit wine.

Zhao Xi swallowed his saliva hard, looked at Taylor, Taylor had a self-pleasing expression, Zhao Xi picked up the cutlery knife next to him, cut off a piece of barbecue meat that was charred on the outside and tender on the inside, and ate it in one bite, the rich meat juice directly filled his entire mouth, and the delicious taste directly made Zhao Xi's taste buds take off.

couldn't wait to cut another piece of barbecue meat and stuffed it into his mouth, after feeling a little tired, he poured himself a glass of fruit wine, a glass of fruit wine was refreshing and greasy, and Zhao Xi began to eat happily again.

Although the kobolds around were busy with their own affairs, they were all secretly looking at Zhao Xi's reaction to eating the food, and seeing Zhao Xi eating happily, the kobolds around him also smiled and began to toast each other.

Zhao Xi, who ate a large piece of barbecue, filled most of the hunger in his stomach, and the speed of eating slowed down, I have to say that this is the best meal that Zhao Xi has ever eaten, thinking that it would be good to eat like this every day.

Seeing that Taylor had eaten about the same, Zhao Xi's mind became active, after all, it should be this time to inquire about things.

"Mr. Taylor, I don't know how much you know about Dawning Town?" Zhao Xi asked slowly.

"Twilight?" Taylor muttered in confusion, "It's been a long time since we've been in touch, after all, something bad has happened inside." “

"Oh?" Zhao Xi came to his senses when he heard this: "I don't know how much Mr. Taylor knows about there." ”

"I don't know much. Taylor shook his head and said, "But there's something bad there." ”

"Bad thing, thirsty?" Zhao Xi asked.

"No, no, no. Taylor waved his hand and said, "That strange disease is just one of them." ”

"A?" Zhao Xi didn't understand, and continued to ask: "Is there anything else?"

"There's something in there, something that scares me. Taylor suddenly lost his appetite for drinking and said, "If you want to be involved in something, you don't have to, it's too dangerous." ”

"I didn't ......" Before Zhao Xi finished speaking, a system prompt flashed in his mind.

System: Main quest release "The Scarlet of the Old Dawn"

The Scarlet of the Old Dawn

Contents: Investigate the suspicions in Dawning Town and get the truth out of it, with no time limit.

Rewards: Rewards are given to players based on their level of completion.

Punishment: One year thinking that you can't gain experience.

After reading the content of the system prompt, Zhao Xi was so angry that he almost threw the wine glass out of his hand, fortunately, he was still expecting some tasks to do before, the first task was so pitted, what the kobold shaman felt scared, isn't killing yourself the same as killing a chicken? You can't learn from garbage online games, kill ten goblins or something? Hello, I'm good, everyone, okay?

Taylor heard Zhao Xi's abrupt words, turned his head to see what was going on, but saw Zhao Xi's uncertain face, and the green tendons of his hands were exposed because of excessive force.

"Mr. Donne, Mr. Donne?" Taylor called out to Zhao Xi a few times.

Erin on the side also saw that something was wrong with Zhao Xi, so she ran to Zhao Xi's side and gently pushed Zhao Xi a few times.

"Hmm?ah!" Zhao Xi came back to his senses.

"I'm sorry, but it occurred to me that some of my friends are still in Dawn. Zhao Xi said with a wry smile.

"Well, in this way, when the war between our tribe subsides, Mr. Don will take them to our tribe, although the conditions are a little simple, but the basic food and drink are still okay. Taylor suggested.

"Well, that's fine, then thank you Mr. Taylor for your kindness. Zhao Xi said gratefully.

Although Zhao Xi solved a matter on his mind, but because he learned that Shuguang Town was deeper than he thought, he couldn't help but make Zhao Xi lose interest in eating, I don't know what that powerful thing has to do with the nobles in the town, if they know, it's okay, after all, they can communicate, if the nobles in the town don't know, it's a bomb that can be detonated at any time, who knows when it will explode.

Taylor saw that the person in front of him had something on his mind, so he didn't open his mouth to ask more, and ate by himself, Erin saw that Zhao Xi was also interested in not bothering, but returned to his table and began to eat.

The banquet was lively, but the three of them fell into an awkward silence, Zhao Xi was also thinking in his heart, whether to do this task by himself or not, after all, just released a task in this way, the reward must be very rich, and the task is only an investigation and not a kill, so he should still have hope to complete it.

But once he picks up Cornelia and them, and returns alone, he will definitely attract the attention of Bishop Darren, and it will be difficult to move an inch at that time, not to mention, it is estimated that it will cause conflicts, and the task is not to be completed.

Zhao Xi is still struggling now, after all, it has been so long since what Taylor said, and nothing has happened to the terrible things inside, the town is still a normal life, as long as he and others don't act as demons, it shouldn't be anything if they just investigate slowly, it's a big deal to escape after they finish it, never come back, and then bring Dorothy's family with them, and they have a small amount of savings, and it is enough to compensate them.

Before Zhao Xi could continue to think about it, he heard a huge cheer around him.

Zhao Xi looked up and saw that it was Vic who had already stood in the center of the square, holding a spear and staring at Zhao Xi tightly.

"Brother Donn, have you eaten well?" Vic said with a smile, "Come down and move when you're full, I can't do it with itchy hands." ”

Zhao Xi saw Vic on the field, took a deep breath, suppressed the distracting thoughts in his mind, stood up, and walked to the field.

Don't think about the bad things first, let's talk about this fight first, the most important thing is strength, if I can have a few dozen levels now, even if Taylor feels scared, what can I do, I can't be a sword second.

"Since experience is not urgent, let's hone our skills. Zhao Xi thought to himself, and at the same time pulled out the long sword at his waist.

"Uncle Vic, you don't need to fight with real guns. Erin shouted worriedly.

"You don't need to be in full strength, little Irene. Vic said, "Brother Donn, you don't have a problem with that." “

Zhao Xi nodded, after all, without the bonus of the Scarlet Blade, it is estimated that he can only be beaten passively, and he will be dragged to death slowly, after all, Vic's physique crushes him, and he is definitely not an opponent in a protracted battle, so what skills do you have to hone.

Erin saw that persuasion was boring, so she gave up, and could only look at the two people on the field worriedly.

Taylor on the side patted Erin on the shoulder, saying that with his own presence, the two of them were injured and it was nothing, Taylor also saw that Vic probably wanted to take advantage of the exchange to find inspiration to step into the transcendent road, after all, he and he were two different paths, and his experience had nothing to learn from him.

Zhao Xi took a deep breath on the side, this was his first time fighting, officially fighting one-on-one with others, he couldn't use yin tricks and couldn't rely on the surprise of his backpack, he could only rely on his own strength and attributes to fight.

After Vic saw Zhao Xi standing on the side, he waved the spear in his hand a few times, and let out a loud shout, and the spear in his hand bit Zhao Xi's chest like a silver snake.

Zhao Xi saw the spear stabbing straight at him, the bright red long sword in his hand moved, and the straight spear was crooked, and when the spear was crooked to the side, his feet also began to move, three steps and two steps, wanting to shorten the distance between the two, so that Vic couldn't use the spear in his hand.

"It's good to come!" Vic's eyes lit up when the spear was picked open, and he shouted hello, and with a force of his hand, he forcibly stopped the spear that was tilted to the side, pulled it back in front of him, and drew it towards the long sword in Zhao Xi's hand.

Zhao Xi saw the other party's spear rushing towards his long sword, in this case, he could only hit it hard, otherwise his body would not be able to stand this spear.

A crisp sound of gold and iron colliding sounded between the two, Zhao Xi only felt that his palm was a little numb from the shock, and Vic smiled happily, and the spear in his hand continued to stab at Zhao Xi.

Zhao Xi didn't make a hard connection but just dodged the tip of the spear sideways, and Vic didn't miss the anger with a blow, but changed the stab to a pump, and Zhao Xi had to put up his long sword to take this move.

When the two collided, Zhao Xi took a few big steps back, unloaded the huge force from the spear, and saw that Vic's move was old, and directly relied on his own speed to rush to Vic's face and fight in close quarters.

Vic of course understood Zhao Xi's thoughts, and the spear in his hand was drawn towards Zhao Xi who was close to him again, wanting to use his own strength to force Zhao Xi away again.

Zhao Xi did not make a hard connection this time, but quickly slashed out three swords, saw three different places, and directly stopped the spear attacking him in three strokes, and Zhao Xi also took this opportunity to shrink the distance closer.

Zhao Xi saw that Vic didn't have time to defend himself, he was overjoyed, and felt that he could still do it, Vic seemed to react, and the spear in his hand rolled towards Zhao Xi again.

This time, Zhao Xi stuck the spear with the long sword in his hand, and his body continued to move forward, only to see a spark grinding out at the junction of the long sword and the spear.

Vic fell into this situation, his face did not change and he wanted to draw out the spear, but he found that the spear in his hand was stuck by Zhao Xi with the hilt of his sword, although Zhao Xi's strength was not as good as Vic, but it would take a while to break free.

It was during this time that Zhao Xi had already come to Vic, with a smile on his face, and punched Vic's lower abdomen, wanting Vic to lose his ability to resist.
