readx;?“ I don't understand, Samuel, you're so weird!"

Vivian and Samuel walk the streets, and the place they are going to is the Adventurers' Guild. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The cat-clan girl was dissatisfied with Samuel's words, and obviously he also agreed to come here by means of the teleportation array, and now he regrets spending that money, and he has already said it from the beginning.

"Stop talking nonsense. ”

“…… Meow, haven't you already been to the Adventurer's Guild before, why do you want to go again! If we leave before this evening, we will be able to reach Meow in Glut as soon as possible!"

"Didn't I explain it to you when I left the hotel?

Inexplicably, perhaps because of money, Samuel looks a little hot.

"I'm worried about you acting alone, you guy has never done a good thing, indeed, I asked you to go to the guild to find out the news, and what happened! You only noticed the commission made by the owner of the fish shop, can you read the words on the board? Can you aliens read the Terran characters?"

"What a meow, we can communicate normally, there is no other language between the cat and the human race, and now everyone is speaking the same meow!"

"Not the problem. ”

"What's the problem with that, Samuel, you're really a contradictory meow, and you also agree with the teleportation array, but now you're annoyed!"

"Isn't that because I can't do it, I agreed to it because of the reward, and then I calmly thought about it, what should I do if the princess of the cat clan catches up? I don't want to anger your people, that guy doesn't know the inside story, he must think that I kidnapped you!"

It was because I was worried about this that I left in a hurry. After all, in that guy's cognition, he is a person who loves money like his life, and he will definitely choose the most money-saving route. Samuel really doesn't want to spend extra money if he can.

"That's enough, it's really not good to have anything to do with that group of people. ”

The shadow mage, and the cave where the dragon sleeps in the boundless forest, when you think about it, you feel afraid, Samuel would not have stepped into this muddy water if it wasn't for the money.

"What do you mean, meow, those people?"

"It's none of your business. ”

Samuel rolled his eyes and looked sideways at the dagger he was wearing, for those who fought for a living, danger and wealth were directly proportional. Of course, that kind of professional person also has its own ethics and principles.

However, Samuel has always been unable to figure out the question, why did he pick on himself, because he was entangled by Vivian in the first place? Why did the former head priest of the temple trust a person who had just met him so much? And is Lolog's face really just a coincidence by chance? Even if the mask is his brother, it has nothing to do with him, although it is a friendship, but it will not be taken care of to such an extent.

Originally, one went to the assassination organization to be an assassin, and the other became a famous chief shaman in the Temple of the Four Directions, which is really outrageous. Samuel continued to think about it, could it be the bloody story of a pair of twin brothers who were separated in their teenage years because of this and that, one entered the temple and the other fell into a down-and-out situation?

"What's wrong meow, suddenly in a daze?"

Seeing that Samuel remained silent for a long time, Vivian glanced back at him.

“…… No. ”

Before, because of the mission, there was no time to think about the reasons behind these things, but at this moment, Samuel had to feel concerned.

"Meow, Samuel looks weird!"

“…… What do you think of Lorog? You've lived in Cat Clan territory before, have you ever met a person who looks exactly like him, or heard that he has a twin brother or something? ”

"No meow, why do you suddenly ask like that?"

"It's nothing, I used to know someone who looked very similar to him. ”

"Meow

"Hey, what do you mean by that? ”

Samuel frowned, and his voice dropped a few degrees abruptly.

"Meow! Samuel's expression became so fierce!"

"Stop! Don't let me catch you!"

After running for a while, Vivian, who Samuel was chasing, stopped, and he saw Vivian's eyes shining, looking left and right, and he didn't know what he was looking for.

"What do you want to do?"

"Samuel! This restaurant smells like honey grilled fish! Vivian thinks the best pair of grilled fish is honey and lemonade!!"

“……”

Samuel ran towards her, and was about to reproach her, when suddenly, Vivian's face changed drastically, and he became quite surprised, as if he had found something terrible, and before he could say anything, he ran away alone.

“！”

What the hell is going on with that guy, he would be willing to leave his favorite grilled fish behind.

Samuel didn't think much about it, immediately chased after him, quickened his pace, and crossed the people around him, if he was not careful, her figure would be lost in front of him, Samuel muttered to himself, what the hell does that guy want to do so fast.

"Hey!"

Samuel runs all the way to a narrow alley that is blocked by three-story buildings on either side, and there is not much light.

Walking into the alley, you can still vaguely see Vivian's figure.

"What are you doing here?"

Vivian noticed that Samuel was also coming, and shouted, "Stop meow, don't come here!"

For some reason, there was a bit of nervousness in her voice.

“！”

The air seemed to be condensed by ice, and even revealed a piercing murderous aura.

Samuel's heart shrank, and then he realized that the atmosphere around him was not right, but his feet had already taken a step forward, and he had not had time to retract. At the same time, he caught a glimpse of Vivian dodging to the side, "Dodge Meow!"

After hearing that voice, Samuel noticed something flying in front of him, and followed the rapid wind, slightly avoiding it, but still brushed his cheek and scratched a scar, if he didn't dodge, it would not be as simple as sticking to his face.

“……”

Just thinking about it makes me feel scared.

"I actually dodged it. ”

At this moment, Samuel heard a voice that he didn't expect to be here.

The owner of the voice also let out a sinister laugh, "Hmph, hehehe, it seems that I will let you live a little longer, to be honest, it is really unpleasant, I didn't expect to meet you two here." Well, is it just the two of you this time, you don't have the smell of Hima and that human race on you at all, and this time luck is pouring in my favor. ”

"It's you, Popin......"

The mood is a little complicated, I actually met him here, not considering that he is the only one now, if they fight him, what are their chances of winning? Of course, if you are lucky, you will definitely get another reward if you catch this guy and bring him back. However, last time, the four of them let this guy run away together, and Samuel and Vivien didn't have a light scroll on them that could fight him.

"Be careful, Samuel, he's dangerous!"

"Huh, do you know that?"

"But meow!"

At the door of the restaurant that smelled of grilled fish, Vivian casually glanced at it and found that Pupuyin was not far away, so he impulsively chased after him without thinking about it, and chased him here, even if he now knew how dangerous and cunning Pupuyin was in front of him, he couldn't easily let him go.

Now, what hole cards does he have?

“…… Hahaha. ”

Samuel laughed, "What an accident, I didn't expect you to say so much." After you escaped, we have been in contact with the Sifang Temple, and now we can contact the temple at any time and ask them to send someone over. It's not so easy for you to kill us, if you don't want to suffer, just obey, otherwise you won't be able to wait for the people from the temple to come. ”

At this moment, Samuel's biggest reliance was the little remaining bottle of invisibility potion on his body.

"Vivian, we can't let him run away!"

Samuel yelled at her, and as soon as he finished speaking, he rushed forward.

"Stupid, stupid meow! Vivian isn't the one to stop you!"

Popin moved his mouth, waved his hand, and one black sword after another rushed out, in a place with bad light, it was really difficult to distinguish, in this environment, it was more beneficial for Vivian and Popin, but not for Samuel.

Several black swords flew straight at him, Vivian easily dodged them, Samuel narrowed his eyes, ran to the side, and stuck to the wall to avoid it.

There is no way, I originally wanted a chance to drink the invisibility potion, but if I delay it any longer, I am afraid that I will not even have a chance to drink it.

Twisting the mouth of the bottle, Samuel took a sip of the invisibility potion, and his figure immediately disappeared in front of the eyes of the two.

"Samuel?"

"Stupid, don't be in a daze!"

Vivian was stunned for a moment, feeling that these words seemed familiar.

"Is it invisible......

Popin snorted coldly and looked at Vivian.

"I'd better deal with you first. ”

Vivian is the closest to his position, he is also a cat people, he can see the opponent's movements clearly in the dim vision, and his physical strength and agility are good, so he must solve it first.

Popin summoned a few more black swords before Samuel could get closer.

Those black swords are somewhat similar to the imitations of the divine swords encountered in the underground palace of the boundless forest, but the ornaments and shapes and sizes are somewhat different from the real divine swords, and the only divine swords Samuel has seen so far are the sword of light and the sword of thunder, thinking that this should not be an imitation of the shadow divine sword.

The summoned black swords were dodged several times, and Popin secretly thought that the performance of these things needed to be strengthened, and the shadow mage who had studied them was only using them as a trap, not a real weapon.

Popin gave up attacking from a distance with a black sword, and the cat people are agile by nature, how can this advantage be ignored.

Vivian ran as she dodged, and it didn't take long for her to come to him, her movements still clear to the naked eye, and her attacks were chaotic and instinctive. As the cat's claw swung over, Popin turned sideways and turned to Vivian's back, striking her in the back with a knife in one hand, grabbing her opponent's hands in time as she reacted.

Vivian tried to break free, but couldn't move.

Suddenly, as if sensing something, Popin let go of Vivian and took a big leap back.

There was a clear, somewhat piercing sound from the place where Popin was standing, probably the sound of some sharp weapon trying to pierce the ground. A sneer appeared on the face of the cat clan, and a voice was heard at the same time.

"Cut!"

"What meow! Samuel where are you?"

Vivian felt that Samuel was one step away from him, but he didn't know which direction.

"How did you find me. ”

Samuel's voice came.

"Cats are not only powerful with ears, but also with noses. ”

"Are you a dog?!"

"It's so rude, your companion still doesn't know your exact location, although it's the same clan, but I am disappointed in her, she is still too tender. Popin shook his head, "When I first entered the Shadow Alliance, but I was tempered a lot, you really think you can deal with me? What a joke, to be honest, I'm in a bad mood, but seeing you two here, I want to recover well, you are just toys for fun to me." ”

"It's really lifting you up to say it's a toy, you're more rubbish than a toy. ”

"Don't say such bad things!

"Meow! we're not toys, we're not trash, Samuel, don't be careless!"

Vivian was a little worried that Samuel would be angered by Ppuin's words.

Popin could sense Samuel's location, and even though he couldn't see him now, he couldn't hide the scent on his body.

"It was really dangerous. ”

“……”

Vivian took a step forward, also trying to catch up with Popin, but showed a hesitant expression at the pinch.

If she catches up and accidentally injures Samuel when she strikes, she won't forgive herself.

"What are you doing?"

Hearing Samuel's roar, Vivian was agitated, and when he came back to his senses, he found that Popin had run to the entrance of the alley, and if he didn't hurry up, he would let him run away, and the streets were full of people, and it was easy for him to sneak in and never find them again.

Vivian stopped thinking and ran.

"Samuel, you're too slow to react, Vivian don't get in the way when he strikes!"

"Hey, that's what I said, right?"

"I can't stand it anymore. ”

Popin suddenly stood still, exposing his back, revealing a huge flaw.

Samuel immediately saw this as a good opportunity, and it was rare for him to let his guard down carelessly. When he did catch up, Popin slowly turned around and showed a deeper sneer, "Do you really think of me as an ordinary cat people? I'm a member of the Shadow Alliance, and my hole cards haven't been shown from the beginning to now." No, no, that's right, it's that guy from Hima, I don't know what she did, and since I've been with her, I haven't been able to use my means properly. ”

"But now, it's just the two of you. ”

Popin held a pitch-black wooden staff in his hand, which looked no different from the crutches held by ordinary old men, with no magic crystals on it, let alone magic cores.

Popin whispered, and the black wooden staff in the shape of a question mark burst out with two sharp black arrows, one aimed at Vivian's feet, and the other at somewhere not far from him.

"What the hell is this?"

Subconsciously trying to dodge, the thing seemed to be able to track automatically, catching where Samuel was, and very quickly.

There was a slight tingling in his foot, like the feeling of being stabbed by a thorn, and the next moment, Samuel found that he couldn't even take a step, and the more he tried to get his foot to move, the more intense the stinging pain in his foot became, so strong that he almost fell to his knees.

"Damn, what the hell have you done!"

If it were a bright street outside, you would be able to see that both of their faces were as pale as if they had lost their blood.

"The more you try to move, the more powerful this magic becomes. ”

"In less than a day, you will be completely corrupted by it, and you will be in a wheelchair for the rest of your life. ”

"You guy, will you only have this kind of vicious ability?! When the people from the temple come, you will feel good!

"What about the bravado at the beginning? You also raised the Temple of the Four Directions, you want to make me afraid, don't think that kind of words can fool me, I haven't fought with those knights once or twice, whether you have been in contact with them, I can still see this. Popin shrugged, feeling a little disappointed in Samuel.

"I'm not interested in you, son of the Terrans. ”

Popin ignored him and walked in Vivian's direction.

"If Hima is here, things will turn against me, and I'm still a little jealous of her wand. After being caught by you, I have observed a few of you, that guy seems to be very good to you, with you as a handle, the cat princess will not do anything to me, today has a big harvest, and I also had a lot of fun. ”

"What do you want to do, Meow! Vivian can't go, but he won't let you get close!"

Vivien waved his hands, his two sharp claws.

"You're the stupidest toys ever. ”

"I stood there for a while, and immediately chased after me. ”

Step by step, Popin continued towards Vivian.

"You don't think I'm afraid I'll be caught, do you?"

"That's really, really, really, funny!"

Popin stood in front of Vivian, his face close at hand, a cold smile on his lips, like a demon's whisper.

"Your soul, I'll take it. ”

He raised his pitch-black wooden staff.

"Stop, ah, ah, ah!"

Samuel desperately tried to run in the direction of Vivian, his feet were imprisoned by evil magic, and the more he moved, the more the pain in his feet doubled, ten, thirty, or a hundred?

None of this mattered, he couldn't let Vivian be taken away.

Absolutely not!

However, the pain in his feet was beyond the last limit of his body's ability to bear, and no matter how much he gritted his teeth, Samuel lost consciousness and fell to the ground.
