"Brother Kuru is fine. Shadow asked, a little worried.
"The priest said that he was recovering well, but his injuries were too bad, and he had to recuperate for two years, but he was in a very bad mood," he said, and his face darkened when he thought of it.
"....I hope Brother Kuru will be okay in the future, do they have any plans? β
"They said they were going back to their hometown, and they would just go back. Renault whispered.
"Well, if only they could think like that. Ying really hopes that a few people will be okay again, "What about the two of you?"
"Of course we're going to keep going, after all, it's just a small place, we're going to travel all over the continent!" Ngawang said as a matter of course.
Shadow smiled slightly, and said, "Good luck to you! That, I'm leaving, you deserve it, I don't know when we'll be able to meet this time." "Said that the shadow threw over a bag of things, heavy.
"Ah, are you leaving?" said Awang, in astonishment.
"yes, I've got to go home. Shadow's face darkened, obviously not very happy about going home, "But you are my friends wherever you go, don't forget me!"
"You are my goddess! Ngawang exclaimed, giggling in amusement.
"Xiao Yebai, you have to be obedient, you have to go to see your sister in the future. Ying hugged Xiao Yebai, the little guy was very humane, reluctantly touched Ying's face, and was scolded by Renaud and Ah Wang in their hearts, you cheap monkey.
After a few people talked, Shadow was still going to leave after all, and the carriage was already waiting for her on the other side.
"Help me say goodbye to Big Brother Kuru!"
Looking at Ei's figure, neither of them said anything, even if they were simple, they knew that Ei was not in the same world as them now, and it could be seen that Ei was indeed in trouble, but their strength couldn't help at all.
Miss Shadow, wait, we will become stronger, and when the time comes, I will beat everyone who bullies you, Renault thought to himself.
At this time, a figure suddenly appeared, it was Ling Feng.
"Two little mercenaries, with the idea that you also want to fight shadows? Ling Feng was contemptuous, and there was even more contempt in his eyes.
"Ling Feng, Miss Ying is our friend, there is no idea that she doesn't have an idea. Ling Feng had saved Renault, and although he didn't quite know why Ling Feng had such an attitude towards them, Renault was still grateful.
"Hahaha, friends? With you? are you qualified? strength? power? What do you have, you are just reptiles struggling at the bottom, and you dare to call yourself a friend of Weiying. Ling Feng didn't take Renault and the two of them in his eyes at all, if it wasn't for the inconvenience now, he would probably kill the two of them and get so close to Ying? No, Ying is just mine, Ling Feng thought like this in his heart, he had already regarded Ying as his own person.
"What do we and Ying do about you? Do you need to spew feces all over your mouth?" Ah Wang's personality is straight, he can say whatever he thinks in his heart, he has long seen this arrogant guy unpleasant, if he hadn't saved Renault, he would have exploded.
Hearing this, Ling Feng's face suddenly became gloomy, and he said, "You are looking for death!" As a generation of geniuses, he reached the fourth stage of the third-level warrior at the age of only eighteen, where is he not respected, but now he is treated like this by a little mercenary, how can he not be angry?
Ling Feng said that it was a palm, and the strong qi directly shook the two of Renault more than ten meters away, and also hit a few tables in the church medical center, and immediately suffered some of them, and the wound of the previous day was even more cracked, and the blood flowed.
"Ling Feng you!" Renault was very angry, and the other party actually did it directly.
"Who is making trouble here!" A momentum erupted, and a middle-aged man in a white robe walked out of it with a gloomy face, he was the person in charge of this church treatment center, and when he saw Ling Feng and Renault lying on the ground, he immediately understood in his heart.
"Are you Pittman going against the church?" the middle-aged man snorted.
"Lord Pastor, I'm standing at the door, but I didn't do anything in your venue, don't talk nonsense. Ling Feng looked innocent, although the church was powerful, but a small pastor of Bay City did not pay attention to it.
The middle-aged man's face was a little bad, it was true that he couldn't take Ling Feng well, and the Pitman family was also a big family, but the other party really made him very unhappy if he didn't take him seriously.
"If it's okay, don't get in the way. The middle-aged pastor said coldly.
"Of course, I'll leave right away, two little mercenaries, see you next time......" Ling Feng made a throat-slitting motion, and then he turned around and left, it's not that he doesn't want to kill now, the shadow is nearby, and if she doesn't know her image, it is estimated that she will be ruined, but if you encounter it in the future, Ling Feng's eyes flashed with murderous intent.
"You two are fine, the injury is not light, come over and treat it." The middle-aged pastor frowned.
"Uh, okay, thank you, uncle. Both thanked the priest if he hadn't told him what Ling Feng would have done.
"It's a trivial matter, that kid is too arrogant! But he has good skills, and the family is very powerful, you can't afford to provoke him, try to avoid him in the future." The middle-aged pastor sighed. Then he shook his head and left, he still had a lot to do, and it was impossible to delay too much time for the two little mercenaries.
I'm going to get stronger...... This strong thought shone in Renault's mind, Renault clenched his fists, after the incident of the Black Bear Village and Ling Feng's humiliation, he finally understood how important strength is, without strength, they are the target of killing and scraping in this world of the jungle.
I'm going to get stronger!Ngawang punched the ground hard, letting the blood flow from the wound on his hand.
At this moment, the two teenagers' thoughts were so consistent, the experience of the Black Bear Village, the death of Ke Erdu, and Ling Feng's humiliation, the two teenagers finally understood what they were pursuing, only by becoming stronger, could they protect the people around them, only when they were strong could they not be bullied, and only when they were strong could they truly explore this familiar and mysterious world!
β¦β¦
"Brother Kuru, we'll go back and see you later. Renault said with some reluctance.
"Well, of course, we'll get drunk when the time comes, haha!" Kuru has adjusted his mentality back in the past few days, although he still looks like a mummy, but he seems to be in a good mood, after all, he is going back to his hometown.
"You two boys be smart in the future, don't be so stupid, don't believe anyone casually, hurry up and improve your strength, the strong in this world are respected." "Willie is indeed a little relieved, Renault and Ngawang have not experienced much, obviously they are still relatively naΓ―ve.
"Well, we are geniuses, and we will definitely be strong when the time comes. Ngawang said confidently.
"Well, that's how young people should be. New praised Ngawang for a rare time.
"Arnold, this is for you. Kuru grinned in pain and pulled out a beautiful white crystal half a palm-sized stone from his bosom, engraved with mysterious spiral runes, exuding a strange power.
"What is this?" said Renault, confused.
"Secret skill! Keep it, it will be of great use in the future, this is your eldest brother Koldu's thing, don't let others know easily. Kuru said solemnly, secret techniques are very rare, and there are many forms of spars, generally a secret technique is the only one, and people who meet the requirements of the secret technique can use it, but after the death of the holder, it will be re-transformed into a spare, and the secret techniques recorded in the history of the entire continent are only dozens or hundreds. It was a great opportunity for the Kuru people to get it, but unfortunately they didn't really have the power to use the secret technique.
"Well, got it. Renault had a faint sense of the preciousness of this thing.
"There is also this map for you, I hope you will have the strength to explore it one day, remember, don't go without the strength of the continent's powerhouse. Willie took out a map, this is where they got the secret skills, but their strength can only reach the outermost periphery, as for Renault and Ah Wang, one is that she does see the talent of the two, and she can break through in more than a month, and now the aura of the two is faintly about to break through, and the second is that she really likes these two young people very much, and really regards them as little brothers.
And against Carey, Renault's behavior shocked her, this person must be very simple.
"Let's go, go back. Kuru lay down on the carriage and shook his hand.
Renault and Awang and Xiao Yebai quietly watched these people leave, the wolf mercenary group has been disbanded, Kuru, Willy, New, and the dead Cordu, this person is the friend of Renault and the two of them at the beginning, although it is only a month, but the relationship between the two sides is already very deep, maybe this is fate, the bag of gold coins given by the shadow Renault was left to Kuru and them, and the two hope that they can go back to live in peace and stability.
β¦β¦
Mercenary office.
"Renault, just this task, low-level first-level demonic beasts, it should be no problem. Ngawang pointed to a three-star whitestone-level mission. Now the two of them have also done a lot of tasks, and they have seen a lot of things, knowing that although the first-level demonic beasts are also powerful, most of them are only stronger than the fierce beasts, as for the big wild boar in their hometown, it is estimated that it is now considered an extreme first-level demonic beast, and it is very possible to give it more time to master the magic of the wind and advance to the second-level demonic beast.
"Well, that's it. "Now that their section points have reached more than four hundred, they can be promoted to bronze mercenaries when they reach five hundred, and the bronze mission is much more rewarding than the whitestone-level task, of course, the danger will increase.
"Hey, the task of catching the Fire Serpent is great, after completing this time, I will be directly promoted to a bronze-level mercenary. A somewhat shrill voice rang out, "Well, it's you two, hurry up and give me this task, I'm going to take this mission." β
The person who came was the eldest young master of the Best family that Renault and the two of them met when they were applying for mercenary licenses last time, and they also knew that this guy was called Best Dodd after a long time in Bay City, relying on family power to bully men and women in Bay City, many people hated and feared him, but the Best family was powerful, and there was nothing they could do about him. Dodd is very lustful, his face is always a little pale, and it is obvious that he is overindulged, and even he is a mercenary for the pursuit of beautiful women.
Dodd is also preparing to reach the bronze mercenary, and the Snake of Fire Coincidentally happened to have just bought a few for his father, ready to be used to make up for his body, and now it is just used to hand in the task, although the price of the purchase is much higher than the mercenary's remuneration, but he will care about these few small dollars, think about the beauty that reached the bronze mercenary and agreed to associate with him, maybe it will be that tonight, how can he not be excited?
"I'm sorry, but we need this task too and can't give it to you. Renault frowned and refused, the evaluation point of this task mercenary office is just right for Renault and Awang to be promoted to bronze mercenaries, and the number of people in the task is also limited to a two-person team, you must know that many tasks are limited to one person or a small mercenary group that requires four or five people, and the reward for this task is good, and there are a lot of points, and this hunting task is simply a return to their profession for them, there will be no problem, how can they be willing to let it?
"Don't you want to stay in Bay City anymore?"
"You two dare to disobey Young Master Dodd, don't you want to live?" shouted a fat man with a meteor hammer on his back beside Dodd, his momentum faintly appeared, he was a second-level warrior, and a thin, short, ugly-looking man beside him had a fierce look on his face and a faint aura, obviously a second-level assassin.
"We don't want to let it, mercenaries are on a first-come, first-served basis, why do you want us to let it?" said Ngawang without any scruples. Then he took Renault and walked out.
"Young Master?" the short man whispered.
"Well, keep up, we'll ...... later. Dodd's face was gloomy, these two people were so faceless, so many people in the mercenary office looked at him, making him feel that he had lost face, and it was impossible to fight at will in the mercenary office, if he dared to do it, he was afraid that the Best family would turn into ashes overnight.
Soon Renault and the others arrived at the place where the Nergo Snake was infested, in fact, this was the southern edge of the Gray Shadow Jungle, not far from Bay City, last time they were going to the northerly road, some distance from Bay City.
It's just the edge of the Grey Shadow Jungle, but there are no big trees, rocks everywhere, and even vegetation is very single, only a kind of fiery red five-leaf clover, which is a relatively common alchemy plant, which can be made into a magic lamp with other raw materials, called Fire Grass, and this thing is also the favorite food of the Fire Snake, the Fire Snake level is too low and there is no magic core, but by eating Fire Grass they can accumulate energy and release a flame, which is comparable to the magician's fireball technique.
The two of them had been squatting for two days, either finding the Fire Ground Serpent, or they had just run away without a trace. Finally, today's opportunity came.
"Ngawang, there. Renault's eyes narrowed slightly, pointing to a "stone" dozens of meters away, the surface of the fire snake was dark brown, similar to the nearby stones, lying there motionless and perfectly integrated into the environment.
"Hey, that's not small. Ngawang's eyes lit up, the bigger the fire snake, the more reward he could get, this fire snake was twice the size of an ordinary fire snake, nearly two meters long, and it was as thick as an adult's arm, and it was estimated that he would be rewarded three or even four times the reward if he caught it.
Renault glanced at Ngawang, and the two of them touched it slowly, and their movements were very light, but people were not as good as heaven, and the two of them cared too much about the snake, but they didn't pay attention to the environment.
"Click" Renault accidentally stepped on a brittle stone, although the sound was really not loud, but the fire snake lying on the rest immediately straightened up vigilantly.
Renault and Ngawang suddenly froze and broke down.
Sure enough, the fire snake suddenly discovered these two obscene humans, and decisively opened its mouth, and a flame erupted violently, shooting straight at the two of them, and their faces changed, and they fell to the ground in embarrassment. Flames swept over them, and they felt like they were burning overhead.
The flames came and went as fast as they could, but when the two of them raised their heads, they found that the snake had run away shamelessly, without any nostalgia.
", chase!" Ngawang was furious, how could the fat in his mouth fly.
As soon as the two of them got up, they chased the fire snake at full speed, originally they wanted to hold the snake's head and control it at once, but it backfired.
The fire snake crawled quickly, and at once it scurried into the bushes not far away, but the two people chasing it were not easy to fool, and followed closely
In just a few minutes, they approached a cliff, and the fire snake wanted to climb down the cliff to escape, but Renault jumped into the fire snake like an eagle with wings, and the fire snake panicked and wanted to turn around and attack Renault, but Renault moved very quickly and grabbed the snake's head, and the snake's teeth were less than a few centimeters away from his face.
"Run, see how you run!" Renault said a little proudly, and Xiao Yebai also chirped to demonstrate to the fire snake, but he didn't know that it was completely hiding in Renault's arms just now.
Ngawang also came up, his face full of joy.
However, very suddenly, a black shadow burst out of the jungle behind Renault, and Renault didn't have time to react at all, only feeling a huge force coming from behind him, and then a mouthful of blood spurted out of his throat.
And the fire snake in his hand was also thrown out by him, and before the fire snake had time to rejoice and escape, it was caught by a short black shadow.
"Renault!" Awang was stunned.
Renault was smashed and flew out, almost flying off the cliff, Ngawang went up with an arrow and hurriedly helped Renault up.
"Renault hold on!" Ah Wang looked very anxious, and Xiao Yebai was also shocked and flew out, but it was nothing serious, and he was chattering anxiously on the side.
Renault couldn't answer at all, and coughed repeatedly, bringing out streaks of black and red blood.
"Huh, he's not dead? Slowly out of the bush came a fat man, holding a meteor hammer, with a surprised and cheerful look on his face, as if he were treating prey.
"Against Young Master Ben, you are looking for death, and you just happened to send me a fire snake to hand over the task. Dodd followed behind the big man, looking very proud, and finally laughed out loud, "It won't end well to go against Young Master Ben!"
"Up, kill them!" Dodd's face was full of cruel excitement, and what he liked most was to watch those weak people being destroyed by him in front of him, giving him a sense of supreme control over the life and death of others.
"I'll come, hehe!" A short figure appeared, still carrying the fire snake, and then slowly walked forward, he knew the young master's habits, and it would be happier to slowly torture and kill the young master.
Ngawang's face turned pale, and they had no ability to resist at all.
"Ahem... Ahem... Ngawang, jump... Jump!" Renault said a few words as if with all his strength.
Ngawang was stunned for a moment, and suddenly understood that there was still a glimmer of life if he jumped, and if he didn't jump, he would definitely die.
No longer hesitated, holding Renault, Xiao Yebai also held on to Renault tightly, and jumped directly, and the figures of several people were quickly swallowed by the darkness of the abyss.
The three of Dodd were also stunned, they didn't expect these two mercenaries to be quite decisive, but a few people didn't care much, the ending was almost the same, I haven't heard that they can live out of this abyss, and there is something terrible in the legend under the cliff......
It's just that Dodd remembered the look in the eyes of Awang and Renault when they fell off the cliff just now, although it was only for a short moment, but he couldn't help but feel cold, very evil.
