Chapter 191: Unlucky Dwarf
Looking at the hands of the two of them frozen in mid-air at the same time, the goblin who fell to the ground glared at the two of them fiercely with small eyes, and after reaching out and slapping the hands of the two of them, he quickly got up, and he didn't even care about the dust on his body, and quickly disappeared into the alley not far away.

Seeing this, the two didn't know what to say for a while, after all, they were not right first, looking at the thin figure, both of them were a little confused for a while, and they both said that most of the residents of Berkeley City are goblins Now it seems that this is not false at all, you must know that in other cities goblins are a race that can rarely be seen, even the number of elves and orcs is much more than them.
Shaking their heads helplessly, the two of them took a new step, walked into this slightly dimly lit small bar, looked around the hall, and then chose a place near the corner to sit down, and when the waiter came over, he ordered some food at will, and began to prick up his ears to eavesdrop on the content of the conversation of the mercenaries around him.
For example, the topic that the mercenaries in some shabby leather armor at the next table were talking about piqued Krezer's interest.
"Hey, have you all heard? Last night someone heard a dull roar of thunder in the Volcano of Ajafara Jocco, as if a terrible beast was about to be born inside. The mercenary, who was wearing a tattered hat and stubble and couldn't tell his age, looked at the other people around you and whispered mysteriously.
"Come on, who doesn't know that you brag about Bill's name, you can take the sound of a fifth- or sixth-level demonic beast when you hear a loud fart in the wild, and you can't scare the people who go with you half to death at night. The mercenary sitting beside him, also dressed in tatters, pierced his words mercilessly.
"You know what! It's called being careful to sail the ship of ten thousand years, and it's going to be over sooner or later. The mercenary, known as Bill Braggart, blushed and pointed at the people around him.
"Don't compare me with you, my strength is much stronger than yours, I can get out of any kind of predicament, the last time I was caught by two fourth-level demonic beasts at the same time, I ran away, what kind of powerful demonic beasts can there be in this poor place of Berkeley City!" The mercenary who was blamed by bragging Bill not only listened to persuasion, but proudly showed off his achievements, as if it was a thing worth showing off to be able to escape under the attack of two fourth-level demonic beasts.
But the fact is also that the strong will always be worthy of everyone's respect, and no one cares what they think about the guy who runs away first at every turn like braggart Bill, but usually this kind of person lives longer. Just like the current situation, no matter what this mercenary who is called braggart Bill swears to pat his chest and promise, no one will listen, but will gather around this mercenary who is said to have escaped from the attack of two fourth-level demonic beasts, and listen to this powerful mercenary talk.
Seeing that there was no more news to hear from the table next to him, Krazer turned his attention to another table of mercenaries who were discussing something hotly, and the topic they were talking about was very interesting to Kreeser.
"Did you hear that a group of people have recently come to look for the treasure left behind by the goblins!" the somewhat obscene-looking mercenary in the group squinted at his pair of triangular eyes, which were almost blind, and looked around carefully.
"I've heard about it, those idiots don't pay attention to them, and this Berkeley City is also pointing to this gimmick to attract people, otherwise who will come to this hellish place. One of the guys, with a sword at his waist, complained loudly after taking a sip of the wine in his glass. "Even the wine in this place is as disgusting as swill, and it doesn't smell like anything!"
"That said, isn't there a rare metal and a philosopher's stone and a gem found here from time to time! The mercenary, who appeared to be the leader, wiped his mouth after taking a long sip of wine. "Didn't someone discover the Dragon's Heart last month!The best fire-based magic stone, wasn't that Ajafarah Jocko volcano a little erupted yesterday, we should go and find it, in case we are lucky enough to pick one up!"
"That's right, Brother Kevin is right, what can this hellish place have, nothing but those filthy goblins, if it weren't for the eruption of the Ajafarah Jocco volcano from time to time, bringing some good things from the depths of the earth with some rare metals and hedrons and other good things, otherwise who would come to this hellish place!" The young man with two daggers at his waist echoed the middle-aged mercenary named Kevin, and then cursed angrily. "There's nothing here but filthy, disgusting, shameless goblins!When are we going to get out of here, we can't even make it to His Majesty's birthday banquet in order to come to this hellish place. ”
"Come on, boy, I want to make it clear, others don't know and think that His Majesty the Emperor specially invited you to the birthday banquet!" the mercenary who was called Big Brother Kevin by the young man pointed at him and laughed kindly. "Didn't you want to go and see the game held in the Hall of Glory Arena, why did any prince invite you?"
"Don't look at my jokes, Brother Kevin, don't you know what I'm capable of! I just want to see how far I have to go with my peers who claim to be the top geniuses!" the young man complained.
Having said that, everyone present could hear a strong sourness from the young man's words, and after the former drank the wine in his glass, he couldn't help but urge the middle-aged man. "When are we going to leave this hellish place!"
"Boy, as soon as you pout your ass, I know what shit you're going to shit! It's not that you lost to the second-place White Horse Roy in the selection competition last year, are you unwilling! You just want to see if he can still participate in this competition, listen to my advice, take a long-term view, there are many masters in this generation of young people, and what you see is only a corner of the mainland. Tapping his index finger lightly on the table, the mercenary named Kevin looked at the disgruntled young man and continued. "Let's settle the task at hand in these two months, I will take you to a place that you have only heard of, but have never seen, so that you can see what is called the genius competition, in this competition, all the big mercenary groups will send their outstanding young generation to participate, and then you will know what kind of talent is qualified to be called a genius!"
"Are you going to take me to the Battle of the Hundred Regiments? Didn't you say that my strength is still a little worse?" As soon as he heard that the mercenary named Kevin promised him to participate in the Battle of the Hundred Regiments, the young man was almost jumping up with excitement.
"Seeing that you can't sit still, I know that if you don't let you see what the gap is, you won't give up, you will definitely not be able to catch up with the competition held in the imperial capital this time, if I don't compensate you, I don't know how many times you have to nag me." With an expression that knows you well, Brother Kevin shook his head helplessly.
Kreze, who was sitting on the side with his ears pricked up and eavesdropping carefully, saw that after the group of people finished talking about the Battle of the Hundred Regiments, he began to say some things that he had and did not, and he was not interested in listening any longer, and turned his head to look at the dwarf Camosiddo who was gulping down his drink.
This dwarf clan is born with two things, one is wine and the other is a hammer, the Camosidor in front of him is a good interpretation of this fine tradition of the dwarves, in the mouth of the group of mercenaries just now, like swill, in his mouth can not feel it at all, people who don't know how good the wine he drank.
It didn't take long for the dwarf Carmosido to eat all the food on the table and drink all the wine left, and then the two got up and prepared to leave. He still didn't know where the address was on the note, but Kratzer thought to himself that if he went to the bar and asked the owner, he would be able to find out where the place was.
Thinking of this, the two got up and walked to the bar, and Krazer looked at the boss standing in the bar with a smile on his face.
"Hello boss, I want to go to this place, can you tell me how to get here?"
As he spoke, Kratzer took out the small note that Old Jack had given him and handed it to the barkeeper standing in the bar.
"You know, it's so chaotic here, I can't tell the difference between southeast and northwest when I enter the alley!"
"Golden Avenue, 342 Fugui Street! I think about it, I think about it, this place should be in the northeast corner of the city, in that goblin settlement, what are you going to do here? He glanced down at the note that Kraser had handed him, and the bar owner pointed out the location of the note for Krezer. "Looks like you're here for the first time, so give you a word of advice! Keep an eye on your wallet, and you might get stolen by these damn goblins. ”
"Thank you, I'm here to send a letter to an elder, I'll leave here when I'm done, I won't stay long, thank you for your kindness!" Kraeer took the note from his boss and put it away. "Trouble settling the account, how much is it in total!"
"Thirteen silver coins in total. Seeing that Krazer said this, the bar owner couldn't say anything more, and after looking at the menu, he gave the money number.
"I'll settle the bill this time! I've helped me so many times, I'll treat you to a small meal first, and when the tribal affairs are over, I'll treat you to a good meal." The dwarf Camosiddo reached out and pressed the hand with which Kratzer had taken out his wallet, and looked at him with a serious expression, as if he couldn't pay for the meal. "Oh, and you, of course, Thanatos!"
When Thanatos, who was originally waving his little fist and standing on Krezer's shoulder in protest, heard this, he immediately nodded his little head, as if to say that you are very good, and I accept your invitation. But when the dwarf Camosiddo went to dig out his wallet, he found that the wallet that had been hanging on his waist had disappeared at some point, and he looked at Krazer with an embarrassed face, and then at the bar owner, and let out a wail.
"Which damn bastard stole my wallet, that's all my net worth. ”
With the wail of the dwarf Carmosido, the mercenaries who were sitting in the hall and were looking at each other suddenly stopped talking about the topic and looked here. It's just that there is no expression of concern on their faces, some are just gloating, and from time to time Kreeser can hear that someone is glad that it was not he who was stolen.
"Look, another idiot has been stolen!"
"Yes, you dare to hang your wallet on your waist here, don't you wait to be stolen!"
"Who said no, at first glance, it's a chick who just came here, and I don't know anything!"
"Hehe, I remember the last time someone stole a large piece of magic silver, and it was the best ore for Mithril. ”
"I've heard about that too, and it's said that the man picked it up and showed it off, and finally it was stolen at the bar, and he went crazy and looked for it for days!"
Seeing the dwarf Carmosido's depressed look, everyone in the bar gloated about something similar that had happened.
"Guest, you see I'm right! Take care of your wallet here, or you might lose something. Seeing the expression on the dwarf Camosiddo's face, the bar owner smiled slightly, with the expression that I was right.
"Thanks for the reminder, I'll pay for it!" Kraezer thanked as he took out his money bag from his ring and took out a gold coin to give to the barkeeper. "Please prepare two rooms for me, and the rest of the money counts as a deposit. By the way, please boil us two buckets of hot water in the evening, and we'll come back to get ready for a hot shower. ”
"Okay, no problem, I'll prepare two clean rooms for you!" Seeing that he had finally paid off after saying so much, the bar owner couldn't help but smile. This is the way of doing business, not letting go of the slightest opportunity to make money, and holding the mentality that anyone can become their own customer, so that the business can become more and more popular.
With the barkeeper smiling, Kraser and the dwarf Carmosido left the bar and headed northeast of Berkeley, as the boss had said.
However, despite the guidance of the bar owner, the streets of Berkeley are really complicated, and Frazer and the dwarf Camosiddo have to ask several people before finding the address written on the note.
But looking at the dilapidated house in front of him, Kraser couldn't help but sigh, the gap between the poor and the rich is really unimaginable, the gate in front of him can't be called a door, that is, two broken planks are erected there, but that's it, Krazer still chose to step forward and knock on the two tattered planks and shouted loudly.
"Is anyone home, please?"
