Loulan City, evening.

The sun has not completely set, on the main street in Loulan City, many shops are still open, and after separating from Mengmeng, Harvey came here, walking slowly forward on the road, a tavern next to it has begun to open, Harvey stopped here, the noise in the tavern can be heard all over the street, which can't help but make Harvey think of the Kessoya Tavern in Sunset Town.

"I wonder how the boss lady, the cartel, and Uncle Hadoff are doing, and Uncle Eddard, and the old mayor? Harvey, who was reminiscing, suddenly felt something and took a step back. As he stepped back, a large figure flew out of the tavern and landed where Harvey had been standing.

The man fell hard, but he was not injured, he jumped up from the ground with a sudden, and scolded angrily in the direction of the tavern: "Talos, you despicable and shameless villain, you have the ability to come out and fight me, what kind of ability is a sneak attack from behind!"

Harvey didn't leave, and looked up at the tavern, where a man dressed in a white knight's uniform came out, holding the knight's sword at his waist in his right hand, and said with a contemptuous smile on the corner of his mouth: "Ollie, you idiot, don't you know that dogs that bite don't bark?"

"Ollie?" Harvey felt a little strange when he heard the name of the man in front of him.

When Ollie heard Talos call himself a fool, he instantly became furious and rushed at him with his fist.

Talos didn't dodge, raised his leg and kicked Ollie in the chest, kicking hard, and Ollie flew backwards again, this time straight towards Harvey.

The moment Ollie flew up, Harvey saw a sinister smile on Talos's face. He felt that this Talos had deliberately kicked Ollie in his direction. He was a little puzzled, he had never seen this person, so naturally he would not offend him, why did he do this?

But now is not the time to think about this, Harvey doesn't want to make a fool of himself, he gathers the magic power in his right hand, and uses one hand to release a small water shield, and Ollie flies straight down on the water shield.

However, Ollie was too strong, and the moment he fell on the water shield, Harvey felt as if he was holding up a collapsed wall, and he hurriedly used his left hand to the ground to cast a wind magic - impact spell to counteract the pressure from the water shield.

"Magician!" Talos didn't expect that a man dressed in civilian clothes turned out to be a magician.

Talos had deliberately kicked Ollie at Harvey, and when he walked out of the tavern, he saw Harvey standing there in civilian clothes, his face unhurried, and his heart was a little annoyed.

When ordinary people encounter the situation in front of them, most of them will know each other and avoid it from afar, Harvey not only did not hide, but also looked at Talos, which made him very unhappy as the son of the city lord, and he deliberately provoked Ollie again, in order to affect Harvey, but he didn't expect Harvey to be a magician.

Knowing that Harvey was a magician, Talos was nervous, as the son of the city lord and had seen many magicians, he recognized that Harvey had just used low-level magic. So he saluted Harvey perfunctorily, "I'm sorry, Your Excellency the Magician, but I didn't see a single magician standing behind this idiot. ”

After Ollie stood firm, he turned around and thanked Harvey, and when he heard Talos call himself a fool again, he was about to turn around, but was pulled by Harvey.

After stopping Ollie, Harvey took a step forward and stood in front of Ollie, and saluted Talos: "It's okay Knight, I actually have to thank you." ”

"Thank me?" Talos couldn't understand what Harvey was saying.

"Your vivid acting just now made me understand that dogs that can bite people really can't bark. ”

Talos said, "He didn't fail to see a magician standing ...... Behind him" this sentence infuriated Harvey. In his opinion, Talos, a knight of the Empire, used such vicious means against himself because of his clothes and the fact that he looked at him twice. If it's really just a civilian standing here now, and being smashed like this by Ollie, the consequences are really unimaginable.

"You ......" Talos didn't continue, he controlled his emotions in time, he was not afraid of Harvey, a low-level magician, but he couldn't return Harvey in front of everyone, and he couldn't do anything. Because in front of so many people, no matter what he does, he is provoking the dignity of the Magician Guild, which will cause great trouble for his father, who is the lord of the city.

Harvey didn't know that Talos was the son of the city lord, he just knew that no one on the entire continent dared to take the initiative to provoke the magician.

"Very well, it's my pleasure to help you, Your Excellency the Magician," Talos said with a false smile on his face. In his heart, he had already decided that as soon as he returned to the City Lord's Mansion later, he would call those mercenaries he had privately recruited to teach this low-level magician a lesson.

The fight couldn't start, and the people around him naturally dispersed, and Harvey turned away when he saw that Talos didn't make any moves.

As a magician, Harvey has spiritual power that is beyond the reach of ordinary people, how could he not detect the cruelty behind Talos's hypocritical smile, he just doesn't care, after all, from Talos's attitude, Harvey knows that he doesn't take himself seriously. To look down on a magician who doesn't know the rank like this is simply stupid and couldn't be more stupid.

It was getting dark, and Harvey quickened his pace. Loulan City, as a major trading center in the western frontier, has a large floating population, and if Harvey can't find a hotel with a spare room as soon as possible, he will have to stay on the street full of horse manure this night.

"That, Your Excellency the Magician, Your Excellency the Magician. Ollie's voice came from behind him.

Xavi stopped, apparently forgetting about Ollie behind him as he left.

"Ollie, what are you doing with me?" asked Harvey as he waited for Ollie to run in front of him.

Ollie, who was trotting all the way, stopped, took a few breaths before saying, "I have to thank you for holding me a little earlier." ”

"You don't want to teach him a lesson?" Harvey didn't think that Ollie in front of him wanted to let Talos go, but he didn't understand why Ollie would thank him for holding him back.

"Think, I've always dreamed of beating that bastard, but he's stronger than me. And, even if I had the chance to beat him, I wouldn't. Ollie gave a wry smile to his face.

"Why is that?"

"He is the son of the city lord, and if I beat him, I will not be able to stay in this Loulan City. Ollie explained.

"Do you have a reason to stay here?" asked Harvey.

"I need money, and I can only fight, so I became a fighter in the gladiatorial arena of Loulan City, and only the gladiatorial arena in Loulan City gave the highest reward in the entire imperial capital, and I couldn't give it up. Ollie said.

As for money, it is not a problem in Harvey's opinion, after all, he is the majority shareholder of the Yanyulou Chamber of Commerce, and if necessary, he can withdraw a large amount of money from any branch in the country.

If it was before, Harvey's character might want to help Ollie, but then he will go to the dark forest, if he helps Ollie, with his character, he will inevitably follow himself, this kind of dangerous thing, it is better not to involve other people.

Of course, this was just Harvey's idea, Ollie took Harvey to help him find a hotel with a vacant room in the city, walked around a long time, all the inns were full, and Harvey, who didn't want to live on the street, could only follow Ollie back to his place of residence.

In order to save money, when he first came to Loulan City, he cut down a few trees in the woods and built a wooden house by himself, except for going to the tavern to drink, he hardly spent much money, and the food he ate mainly depended on the wild animals in the woods, and in winter when there were few animals, he would go to the city to buy some cheapest bread to make do.

Ollie took Harvey with him, and soon returned to his cabin, and after arranging for Harvey to sit down, Ollie told Harvey to rest for a while, and he went out with a fork to catch some rabbits for dinner.

After Ollie left, Harvey also got up and left the cabin, and he walked in one direction at random, and after some distance from the cabin, he stopped. Then, standing in the moonlight, he suddenly said in a loud voice: "Come out, Mr. Mercenary." ”
