"Deal?"

"Yes. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info I don't want your 5000 gold. ”

"Then what do you mean......" After learning the identity of the visitor, Langdam even changed his name.

"Moonlight mayflies. Gold coins are useless to us, and you can barely convert them into moonshine mayflies. Merlin said lightly.

As a specialty here, the Moonlight Mayfly has almost always been in the hands of Moonlight Town, and it is regularly handed over to the Wizarding Alliance. But Merlin is sure that Moonlight Town will definitely save some of the Moonshine Mayflies outside of their share...... This is also considered the wisdom of mortals, leaving room for everything.

"This ......" listened to the other party's request, and Rendham hesitated.

What the meaning of the moonlight mayfly meant to the town certainly didn't know better than that of him, the mayor. That's the equivalent of the 'liquidity' in the town, and if something happens, you can only hire it.

"If the mayor doesn't want to, forget it, anyway, although the moonlight mayfly is difficult to catch, as long as it takes a little time, it can still be caught. It's just those porcupines now...... Hehe, if nothing else, I'm sure those porcupinas won't be quiet on their own. ”

"Wait......" Unwilling to give up this opportunity to expel the porcupine, Rondam gritted his teeth and agreed to Merlin's terms.

"By the way, Mayor Mare Mare, I heard that there are dark wizards nearby, is this true?" Before leaving, Merlin asked about the dark wizard.

"......Dark wizard? It is true that we have heard from merchants passing by that there are dark wizards in the vicinity, but since no one survived, we are not sure if this news is true. In addition, in recent times, the situation has not been good, and we do not have enough manpower to investigate. In retrospect, Mayor Mare realized that the time of the dark wizard's appearance coincided with the porcupine's unusual behavior.

Is there any connection between the two?

By the time he came to his senses and wanted to ask for clarification, the three girls had disappeared from the office.

"Mayor Mare, do you need us to find a few hands and feet to follow?" the sheriff wiped the cold sweat from his forehead...... When he learned that there were actually two wizard apprentices among the three people he had brought, he was really shocked.

"Stalking wizards? Are you crazy? Even if you don't care about your own lives and the lives of your men, I don't want to set aside another pension from an already strained enough finances. Angry at the sheriff who had come up with the idea, the mayor vetoed the ridiculous proposal.

"That'...... Do you really want to use a moonshine mayfly, in case something else happens......"

"I know, but I can't help it. Ordinary mercenaries and adventuring teams, even if they are willing to ask for these 5,000 gold coins, they must have the ability. Porcupines are not magical beasts that ordinary warriors can deal with, especially the number of porcupines in Porcupine Valley is too much, and no one wants to take on such a thankless task.

If even wizards can't do anything about it, I'll have to consider turning to the Wizarding Alliance, as they may scrape off my budget for the whole year...... There's no way around it. Mayor Rondam never imagined that there would only be three of them on this task, and he had thought that there would be some people outside the town.

......

Because of the torrential rain last night, it would have taken more than an hour to reach the Porcupine Valley, but now it takes more than twice as long.

The rain stopped in the middle of the night, but the roads were still muddy, and even those who were ready to go to the Porcupine Valley to see the excitement were much less than the previous two days.

The young hunter Merco sat in a daze on a wooden pier that was one of the thickest hugs...... He turned sixteen and was kicked out of the village by his father after completing a simple rite of passage three days earlier.

The village where Merco is located is more than ten miles away from the Porcupine Valley, and the villagers there are the best hunters in the area, so it is called the Hunter Village.

According to the custom of the village, every boy up to the age of sixteen must travel for two years to prove that he is strong enough to match the name of the villager of 'Hunter Village'.

Although Mei Ke is agile and can be called the best qualified young enthusiast of this generation, due to his too loose personality, Mei Ke has always made his father have a feeling of hating iron but not steel.

And the reason why Mei Ke sat on that stump for three days was because he heard that Moonlight Town had given out 5,000 gold coins as a bounty for the mission.

He originally wanted to wait here to join the mercenaries who came to hunt porcupines, but three days passed, but the mercenary group that took over the mission never appeared, and even the adventurers who could be seen from time to time were gone, which made him begin to have the idea of giving up the Porcupine Valley, which is not a simple but not difficult task.

Just as Mei Ke was thinking wildly, an inexplicable voice suddenly came from his ears.

Someone is taking it here...... May was astonishingly agile and jumped off the wooden mound and hid behind a bush.

I saw a figure walking out of the Porcupine Valley...... As soon as he appeared, the temperature of the whole world seemed to drop, and Mei Ke felt a chill suddenly envelop him.

It's a dark wizard!

Thankfully, the dark wizard didn't notice Meco's behind the bushes, and he looked up at the sky and walked in the other direction.

"It's so hanging. "I don't know why the dark wizard came out of the Porcupine Valley, but Merco is still glad...... Dark wizards don't need a reason to kill, and if they are targeted, I'm afraid they won't have a chance to get away with it. It wasn't until the flying black robes that he could no longer see the flying black robes that he breathed a sigh of relief.

"It seems...... It's true that the dark wizards are spreading this way...... Daddy won't let me go back, or I'll have to inform them. ”

Mei Ke was still wondering if she should go back to the village when she heard a stumble of footsteps coming from the direction of Moonlight Town.

Turning his head, Mei Ke almost ran away...... An ice-blue python more than ten meters long was chasing sixty or seventy mercenaries, running out of the woods on the side, its blue scale armor shining like jewels in the sunlight.

This blue python is far beyond ordinary pythons in terms of speed and size, especially in its head, although it is not long, but it is very sharp single horn, which is terrifying to see, if it is directly stabbed, the result may not be optimistic.

"It's ...... Some resemble celestial phantom snakes, but the color of the scale armor and the horns ...... Could it be some kind of mutated monster?"

Growing up in the hunter village, Mei Ke is familiar with many uncommon magical beasts, but this giant python in front of him makes him very suspicious, and he doesn't dare to confirm it, he is now very curious about whether this giant python grows naturally, or the result of artificial experiments, if there is an owner, then what kind of person is its owner.
