Outside the city gate, teams of convoys kept coming and going, and scolding continued to sound.

Although it is spring, due to the special geographical location, it is extremely hot, men are basically shirtless, and women just cover their privacy casually, bringing a cool breath in this weather.

Long Ling was wearing a short shirt, sweating profusely at the gate of the ruined city, he held a map bought at a roadside stall, and after confirming the location, he put the map away: "Yuyan City, it's finally here." ”

Imperial Flame City, the southernmost city of the Star Crown Kingdom. Although it is a city of the kingdom, it is not within the territory of the kingdom, but near the flaming mountains of the Kingdom of Warcraft.

The city is in a dilapidated state, not only the gates have been destroyed, but also the houses inside. But it's more of a city than a stronghold. The only people who live in the city for a long time are the Mercenary Guild and the Adventurers' Guild. And when a demonic beast strikes on a large scale, everyone will retreat, leaving only an empty city.

Some mercenary groups and adventurers will come here to accept tasks from the Guild. Because the working environment is harsh and the pay is relatively high, the flow of people is not low. But temptation often comes with risk, and in this mountain range, there are many people who go in and don't get out alive.

"It's so hot!" Long Ling fanned the clothes on his chest and complained: "I originally wanted to see what this Flame Mountain was like, but I didn't expect it to be so hot, so I would have changed places if I knew it." ”

Long Ling looked around, skimmed over the bare-chested men around him, glanced at the hot bodies of the women around him, and couldn't help but whistle.

Like, it's not bad to come here.

Long Ling asked a pedestrian about the location of the adventurer's union and the mercenary union in the city. Although Long Ling already had the height of an average adult, the childishness on his face could not be concealed. Although the pedestrians were surprised by Long Ling's age, they still pointed out Long Ling's location.

Long Ling thanked him and walked towards the trade union.

In the center of the city, several small houses are built on the ruins. One room was a little shabby, and a plaque with the words "Mercenary Guild" was lying on the side, and the corners were still a little broken. On the opposite side, a two-story hall sits on the front door, with a plaque printed with the words "Adventurers' Union".

At this time, many people were blocking the gates of the Adventurers' Union, as if arguing about something. Long Ling casually walked outside the crowd and looked inside.

"Mercenary Guild, it's better to get out of this Imperial Flame City as soon as possible, it's enough for our Adventurer Guild to have this Imperial Flame City, you will only get in the way. A man at the front of the ranks of the Adventurers' Guild said harshly.

"Don't be too arrogant with the adventurers' union! first bullied the people of our union, and then destroyed the signboard of our union. My Daddy will definitely not let you go!" The voice of the girl who seemed to be on the side of the mercenary union sounded, but the girl turned her back to Long Ling, and Long Ling could only see the girl's back.

The leading man's face changed, but he refused to back down, but said mockingly: "It's obvious that your strength is insufficient, and you can't even stop a fireball in my hand, otherwise how could the signboard of the mercenary union be knocked down." ”

The people on the side of the mercenary union were immediately furious, and some people wanted to come forward and fight. But the girl in front stopped everyone, and the crisp voice sounded again, but this time it was also made some anger by the adventurer's union: "You fart, you didn't attack me first, how could this be." ”

"You little girl, let's go home and call Dad, don't be embarrassed here. The crowd of the Adventurers' Guild erupted in laughter.

The girl was furious, and a water arrow shot out from her side, pointing directly at the leading man. But just as he was about to attack him, a fireball also emerged from his side, striking the water arrow, and with a cloud of steam, both of them were annihilated.

The leading man's eyes lit up, and he immediately said, "You came to our Adventurers' Guild to make trouble, and you actually attacked, then don't blame me for being rude!" A large fireball gradually formed from his hand.

The girl said anxiously, "You go quickly, you can't stop this attack!"

"But ......"

"Alright, stand down, I'll be fine. ”

The mercenary guild had to retreat, and by this time the fireball had already formed and was thrown at them.

The girl summoned five water arrows and stabbed at the fireball from five directions. The water arrow came into contact with the fireball, but due to the demonic energy, it could not penetrate deep into the fireball, and turned into a cloud of water vapor and spread out. The girl seemed to know this ending, her face remained unchanged, and she held her palm, "Condensation!" The water vapor floating in the air instantly condensed into water, enveloping the fireball and making it stay in place.

But before the girl could breathe a sigh of relief, the leading man said: "What a subtle control method, but it's a pity that the gap between you and me is too big, and this can't stop my attack." ”

A heat wave suddenly erupted from the water-encased fireball, shattering the water layer and rushing towards the girl faster than before.

The girl's face changed, and a wall of water rose in front of her, but it was easily pierced by the fireball. She had no choice but to cover her body with water, ready to resist the blow.

The leading man didn't use all his strength, and this blow would at most shock the girl back, and it would not cause harm to the girl. He also knew that although he didn't show up, there were people who were watching them.

If he wounds the girl, he may be the next to fall.

Long Ling looked at the approaching fireball and glanced at the girl who had no idea of dodging in front of the mercenaries. couldn't help but sigh, his body moved involuntarily, and with a flip of his palm, a black long sword appeared in his hand.

The girl took a defensive stance, waiting for the onslaught of the fireball. Suddenly, a figure crossed over her and stood in front of her. The girl was stunned for a moment, and then shouted, "What are you doing, go quickly!" Long Ling danced the sword in his hand, but ignored it. The fireball approached, and Long Ling slashed at it with his sword.

Boom.

With an explosion, the fireball exploded, but strangely, the flames did not spread out in all directions, but gathered towards the sword body.

This is an ability that Long Ling discovered when he was studying the Book of Heavenly Illusions in the Heavenly Dragon Mansion. It can attach the effects of [Demon Breaker] and [Armor Piercing Blade] to objects, and although the power is small compared to the main body, it still has a certain effect.

However, Long Ling didn't have time to feel the effects of the replica [Demon Breaking Blade] now, because he was being pressed to the ground.

Long Ling looked at the girl with closed eyes in front of her, fair skin, long blue waist-length hair, and a ruddy little mouth that was curled into a line. The slightly developed chest was close to Long Ling's body, only a light bust was isolated, and the whole person pressed Long Ling under him in a slightly curled posture.

Long Ling was pressed under him by a girl in such a posture, and suddenly panicked: "That, that, you, are you okay?"

The girl opened her eyes, a pair of blue eyes, stared directly at Long Ling, and blamed: "It was so dangerous just now, what are you rushing out for!"

Long Ling smiled awkwardly, his face flushed slightly, and his eyes wandered away, "Then, that, can you get up from me first?"

Only then did the girl find that she was lying on Long Ling's body, her pretty face turned red, and she quickly stood up.

Before Long Ling could breathe a sigh of relief, the girl suddenly squatted down with a blushing face. There was a soft sound of "pop", and the girl slapped Long Ling in the face. "Do you see?" said the girl, angrily.

Only then did Long Ling find that the girl was wearing a short skirt, and understood the reason for the matter, he hurriedly shook his head: "I didn't see it." "In fact, he just lost his mind, and he really didn't see it.

There was another soft sound of "pop", and the girl blushed and said, "You denied it before I said what it was, you must have seen it." ”

Long Ling wanted to cry without tears.

I really didn't see it. Feelings, I can't avoid these two slaps in the face.

"What are you doing? Behind the mercenary union, a majestic voice sounded.

Hearing this voice, a group of mercenaries and some people watching the excitement hurriedly made a way.

"Father!" A smile appeared on the girl's face, and as soon as she wanted to get up, she remembered Long Ling lying on the ground, and said unceremoniously: "You disciple get up for me, if my father sees you, you will die!"

Long Ling hurriedly got up, and then the girl followed suit, and then ran towards the middle-aged man who came over.

The girl told the middle-aged man what happened, and after listening to it, she smiled and said to Long Ling who was standing aside: "My name is Hu Li, I am the president of the Yuyancheng Branch of the Mercenary Union, this is the little female Hu Luoshui, thank you Xiaoyou for coming to the rescue, thank you here." ”

Long Ling didn't dare to slack off, and arched his hand: "I'm just doing my best, how can I talk about gratitude." ”

Hu Luoshui muttered in a low voice: "Hmph, I don't need him to save me." ”

"Hehe, little friend, wait for me, and we'll talk after I'm done with the Adventurers' Guild. With that, Huli walked towards the Adventurers' Union. The group of adventurers at the gate couldn't help but take a few steps back. Hu Li didn't pay attention to them, but shouted towards the gate: "Li Gu, how long do you have to hide, do you want me to go in before you come out?"

"Hahaha, the tiger's temper is still so impulsive, I can't come out. I saw a topless middle-aged man walking out of the door.

"The Adventurers' Guild is really getting more and more arrogant, first bullying the mercenaries of our union, and then shooting down the plaque of the mercenary union, and actually shooting at my daughter, if it weren't for this little friend, I don't know what would have happened. What do you say about this?" Hu Li asked Li Gu.

"Huli Branch President, it was your daughter who brought people to my Adventurers Guild to make trouble and attack me, so I had to fight back. And I also controlled the force so that it would not cause harm to your daughter. The man at the beginning bent down in defense.

Hu Li looked at him lightly, and said without a trace of emotion: "I will talk to your branch president, when will it be your turn to speak." ”

"Hmmmm......" The man was suddenly wrapped in a cloud of water, and although he tried to use the flame to break through the water circle, it was like a pebble falling into a river, and it had no effect.

Seeing this, Li Gu sighed lightly and put his hand on the water prison, and flames gushed out, destroying it. After the man was rescued, he hurriedly retreated behind Li Gu and didn't dare to speak more.

Li Gu glared at the man and said, "This time, it is indeed because of my lax discipline that I let my subordinates do such a thing. You say how you are going to compensate you. ”

Hu Li smiled: "That's right, the mercenary union has a more difficult task recently, so please gather a few people to help us complete the task, of course, the reward will not be less than you, how about it?"

Hearing this, the group of adventurers behind them were not happy, and someone said, "No, branch leader, how can we adventurers help these mercenaries complete their tasks." Suddenly, a large echo sounded.

Hu Li's eyes were cold, and his momentum pressed out, and the adventurers suddenly lost their voices. Seeing this, Li Gu hurriedly said, "Okay, I agreed on behalf of the Adventurers' Union." ”

Hu Li put away the coercion, turned around and left, and said, "Okay, in three days, I hope the Adventurers' Guild can gather a decent team." ”

When the matter was settled, they dispersed.

"Little friend, why don't you come in and talk about it?" Hu Li suddenly turned back to Long Ling and said.

Long Ling was originally going to register here and join the trade union, so he nodded and followed Hu Li into the mercenary trade union.
